Campaign maps

[Death_bringer_2]

I'm trying to make a campaign with three maps in the campaign editor. However, when I save the campaign and try to load the first map in-game, the screen will go black then return to the campaign main menu. Any reason why it's like this?

Paste-bin it and I will see if it happens to me.

I think I may have figured out what's wrong.

When I delete the custom loading screen I have (.tga format), the mission will load. When the custom loading screen is in, the mission won't load. Is the .tga somehow conflicting with the campaign? Also, does the 8 MB limit apply to campaign maps?

 

[-Peper-]

Must .blp? Don't know.

I replaced the .tga loading screen with a .blp version (was bigger >.>) and tried. Didn't work. The map size was about 9 MB with the screen. I removed it, dropped it down to 7 MB and now the mission will load.

How can I get around the annoying MB limit for single player crap?

How can a single Campaign map be bigger than 8 MB? You did import everything in the Campaign's import manager, right?

Except for the Loading Screen, of course. They need to imported seperately for each map.

I can think of a few ways, Ramza, lol.

Anyway, the filesize limit shouldn't matter in single-player, regardless.

Hmmm....I didn't import via the campaign manager. I imported everything as a placeholder first (sounds, etc etc). Lemme try the campaign manager. And Vizel, I don't know what to say. There's apparently a limit size lol.

Problem's fixed, so it's all good. Thanks guys for the help.
