I have got that idea to change a little in the mission maps, but when I export it as .mix in LE, and sends it to my server, my renegade crashes when I try to join the server.
What am I doing wrong ??

You need to save the map. "File-Save as" and then name is exactly like its original name. Then goto the modpackage folder or that map and goto the Levels folder. find a .ldd file and .dds(if there is one) and paste it at FDS/Server/Data. There you go!
And, only objects from the Objects tree will show up. None of the tiles or terrain stuff will be there.

Edit: You can only create new Spawn presets. If you like make a new vehicle preset, the server wont crash but the client will.

But if I place the object.ddb in the server folder, should it crash then?
Can I add scriptzones whitout problems?

Ok, lol. You goto the ssgm.ini and find (CTRL+F) "ObjectsFile" You should find 2 of them. Ok, you need to edit the one that does NOT have a ; before it. Ok, it should look like this "ObjectsFile=gm". Save that and then copy the objects.dds from your preset folder in level edit and put it in the server/data folder. rename it from objects.dds to objects.gm

IF: If you just see "Objects", then click Tools-Folder Options. A window should pop up. Goto the View tab. Find and check the "Hide extinctions for known file types" and click OK.

How should I load the map? If I load the ldd file I cannot join the server. And if I chose the "normal" map, nothing is changed

For example. you modded Walls flying. The map you choose is C&C_Walls_Flying.mix and the ldd file should be C&C_Walls_Flying.ldd. You choose the mix file and ldd is the file that mods the mix file.

Here i made an example for you.

Download that and put it in your Server/Data folder.
This will add two switches outside warfactories wall and you come, hit e and one gives you a char, another gives a vehicle behind you. You need to pick walls flying as the map.

Just one more thing. You said editing missons right? Well, just to tell that you cant edit m09.

A question, can you add bots to the level by making spawners?
