b4 trying that ,try looking at the autosaves (snapshots)if u had that option on.it seems like ur .map file and .bak file got corrupted somehow :? .if u disabled that option than try what blue said.try copying the whole map without any filtering 1st though

2 select the whole map ,look in the top view then put a brush the size of the map so the all of the map is inside the brush .then select complete tall.

this happened to me for a month b4 i got it figured out.
M&M is partially on the right track on this, you are probably using the wrong editor for that, but you still can use the AA editor if you want, but you've got to make sure you don't use any SH textures, models, etc.
believe me, it took forever to figure out for me.
most MOHSH textures are in separate files so if you open algiers for example it'll be pure AA.
if it's killing you on this one you can uninstall your game and reinstall regular AA and it should all work fine. though i do suggest ridding your comp of all things related to the editor first. like entdefs. :wink:

mmmn it works on 2 other people's computers

looks like I'm getting a replacement AA disk and doing a complete reinstall

I have problems with my spearhead game aswell, maybe thats the reason why it crashes

thanks for your ideas :)

I'll let you know the outcome when my new disk comes, although it should work anyway

Hmm... I would filter out the entities then copy all the brushes into another map and reinsert the entities.
did u try that ?seems like the most sensible solution since u said it works on new maps !!!

rofl :lol: !!!!
i didnt mean to be annoying but thats really so funny (sry) .if that happened to me id prolly stop mapping even

but i hate when im faced with a problem i cant solve ,so i understand how u feel :wink:

ok ,lets have a recap of what u did from the beggining of this post
1-reinstalled radient
2-ur using the correct radient (the one for sh)
3-tried the .bak file of ur map ,but no success
4-reinstalled mohaa ,then sh
5-reinstalled the sdk (mohradient 4 sh)


hmmm!!!!thats a tough one ,
well,these are just random suggestions which might be connected to ur problem remotly

1-remove the vga drivers and resintall them (preferably ,update them )
2-try using the mohradient (the AA one)
3-try reinstalling mohaa again ,but this time w/o spearhead and test mohradient

i cant think of any now ,but if i do i will post them surely .
if anybody knows what this problem is caused by dont refrain from posting here also :wink:
