That tends to happen when you clone chunks in strange places, or when you swap references in a way that the game can't understand (e.g., making your starting weapon a banshee, or something odd like that).

I advise changing only a few things at a time, then try to load your map to see if it works, as opposed to making all your changes at once and then hoping the map loads. Also, save backups every time you've done enough work such that you'd be angry if you were to lose all the work you'd done since the last time you made a backup.

What kinds of things are you doing in your mod?

If you want to know how I did something, take apart my mods.

not much just weapon ammo swapping, texture swapping, warthog flying.
