The TS map Im working on no matter how careful i try not to press mod, it still crashes in renegade. When i tried to export it under a different name-(first it was "C&C_TS_Stronghold.mix" that crashed) Then i tried "C&C_TS_Strongholdx.mix" just to see what would happen. I got the blue void that time for some reason. Does anyone know about this, if there is a certain way or something when exporting. Nothing like this happened when i did Pacific. I had restarted the LE procress a few days ago with it, put in all the BASIC stuff, spawners, beacons,waypaths etc. Then I temped a silo roof for both GDI and NOD. I did only one gdi silo top the first time and exported it and it worked. Then when i put all 4 silo tops on it exported it and it crashed and would keep crashing. Im confuzzed

You must have the same name for your level as for you mix... so if the name of your level is C&C_blahblah.lvl, they you must export it as C&C_blahblah.mix

Don't follow the "dodgy" tutorial on Renhelp about making MIX format maps. It tells you to delete the presets folder, which you should no do, you must delete the contents of the presets folder except temps20.ddb.

Umm, no...
Delete the folders mentioned, then undo the delete when you've exported the level.
Rather simple, huh? I've done this all the time for the past year.

Um no. If you do that you will have exported a level to MIX format without any custom presets in. If you delete the temps20.ddb where the hell are you going to get your temps from eh?

Yes but I was assuming that the level had not been saved yet. If you have saved it once then it is fine. I delete all the files except the.lvl file before exporting so the save rebuilds any changes to the db and then export.
I was working with 20+ backups of the level when I did it as the scripts can wreck the map if you do them wrong so I got into the habbit of deleting all the LVLs and re-saving the maps, which pulls the temps from the temps20.ddb into your level db.
But yes - you are correct in that it does work if you have saved before the export.

that can make it crash sometimes
I did it over weekend and it seems to have stopped my map from crashing although now nothing that is temped shows up when i update. Am I supposed to leave the characters and always folders in as well?
