Sapien closes after I select my .scenario

Post by coles »

I have seen this same sort of post quite a few times but noone seems to have answered it. I have read debug.txt and the error is listed as:

10.07.04 08:22:25 sapien pc 01.00.00.0609 ----------------------------------------------
10.07.04 08:22:25 reference function: _write_to_error_file
10.07.04 08:22:25 reference address: 401b13
10.07.04 08:22:25 Couldn't read map file './sapienbeta.map'

I could really use some help as ALL of my maps, even those that worked in sapien before, refuse to open.

it doesn't close for me when i do that but it used to when i was saving the radiosity thingy.

My only suggestion is get a working .scenario file from a friend and test taht. If sapien crashes then it is your program. If not then you are doing somethign wrong.

Thanks for the reply, i'm actually re-installing Sapien now, i'll know soon.
Also creating a new custom vehicle if anyone wants to help me test it later.

i know whats the problem. You edited the tags that were in sapien, so make sure you have a backup of the tags you made yourself, reinstall halo editing kit, and try it again. that should do the job.

yeah - it happened to me - you can either delete the tags in geurilla, or make some new ones with the same name

It had to do with your geometry... chances are you used a modifier thats a little too complicated for Halo. Like the Displace modifier.... if you use it too extremely Sapien won't even open your map... without giving to much info, try to explain some of the geometry on your level and I'll be able to help more.
