Campaign Chapter Problem

[phoenixfire]

Ok, so I finished Chapter 1 of my campaign, and wanted to test it. I went into WCIII - Custom Campaign and then... a black screen. The screen was black, didnt even go to loading screen, or go back to campaign screen as if there were too many models. The Prologue worked fine so im guessing its not th ecampaign settings, I removed all the triggers and that still didnt help so I added them again. The only things I made specific in this map are tints and health of some destructibles. None of the limits have been bypassed and I'm using JNPG so that wouldn't matter. I can't figure out what else could possibly be wrong and I'm about to give up, so I'm asking you to help me figure this out. The mission that is not working is called Chapter 1 (2), not Chapter 1. Please help!

this is probably a wc3 problem. Maybe it cant load the map and the game crashes? But i have no clue why... Ive never made a custom campaign

Anybody else willing to check this out?

Maybe the JNGP is the cause,i'm not sure though,but it could behave improperly in campaign...

I get the same problem as well, seems the only map which doesn't work is the Chapter 1 (2).

Okay, I might have found the problem.

You have 2 units with an incorrect raw code:
- Gold Serpent (a backslash is not allowed in the raw code).
- Citadel of Light and Magic (an apostrophe is now allowed).

If you rename their raw code, the campaign should run normally.

More info:

The game is trying to create/place all units which are already set up in the editor and comes across raw codes which aren't supposed to 'exist'.
This causes the game to crash before it's even loaded.

How do you change the raw code?

 

[ap0calypse]

1) Copy/paste the unit.
2) Find all original units in the map and replace them with the copy/pasted one.
3) Delete the original unit.

I think you've got 3 wrong units: 2 somewhere near a camp (top left) and another one somewhere top-middle (not sure, but that magic tower was around there somewhere).

I found by utilizing the Demo Campaign that theres triggering required for you to see the next buttons appear. Open it up and Copy-Paste the Level Data folder, and adjust it to your variables.

That wasn't the problem, thank you for reviving a 5 month old thread.
