The game crashes sometimes when I select a unit group that... is near north border?
Or too far from the current camera position?
Can't recreate the bug to confirm, so I'm not sure. But it happened twice for me.

Upd:
Maybe it's not about selection.
Found the way to recreate this (or some similar) bug.
1. Start "Mission 7 - Grim Batol".
2. Immediately select Transport ship.
3. Move it to the north border.
4. The game crashes.

Also I think the same thing happened to me with flying machine.

Yes, I think the problem is there's no camera bounds and some units, mainly flying and floating, cause a crash when they get near the border of the map.
Unfortunately this would require to remake the maps, which I do not yet know how to go at it.

In Warcraft 2, when you destroy all enemy buildings (or maybe even excluding farms/towers, I don't remember), their remaining units are ordered to attack-move to player.
That way, it saves a lot of time needed to find them across the whole map, which is super annoying (especially if the map is huge)...
Honestly I just used "iseedeadpeople" when I destroy last building and can't find them, otherwise it's a waste of time.

I think you should implement WC2 behavior, which is very easy to do.
Same for your other WC2-remake campaigns.

Crashing in the fourth mission, probably related to the oil hauling.

EDIT: Crashes in the fifth chapter as well. It may still have to do with the oil, it happens after a time. Could be that the new patch made the triggers leak leading to an eventual crash after 20 so minutes, making the player need to speedrun all the levels involving oil.

Since many have wanted to check out the campaign in the editor, I finally got around to slightly remake it so it can be opened in a normal World Editor (no NewGen required). I didn't test it thoroughly, but should work normally as well.

You should check it out youtube, someone did AI upscaling remasters of the cinematics

Had to sign up to say thank you, this is awesome work @Helldoom ! I notice that in the years since you've also done the War 2 Dark Portal campaigns too and have added more enhancements to those ones such as the text with voice over intro's for each mission which is just awesome! Any plans to update these original Tides of Darkness campaigns to have the same quality intros?
