can you tell me exactly the differences among the previous well-working output you did? is it before to convert, so while you are using the TRLE? if it is so, you surely get an error message.... or not?

In the differences list tell me even the amount of textues, of if you used a new custom object, or if you edited again with trwest.... well tell me even if you linked some strange room with no-collision button....

but have you tried to re-install again the trle?....

what about the wad? it is completely done with ten files, but correctly done or simply copied from a previous version?....

there is only one difference, i tried putting the climbing surface on the green wall pillars before, but i did it wrong and the climbing surfaces were inside the wall, but i learned from the manual that you have to place it on the adjacent floor square, so i did that, and then it crashed! and all the previous saves wont work either (but i think the very first save worked but that's a LONG time ago, i cant use that)

In the differences list tell me even the amount of textues, of if you used a new custom object, or if you edited again with trwest.... well tell me even if you linked some strange room with no-collision button....>>>>>>
there is a total of 6 texture panels, that's all.......no custom objects, same wad as the working prj............no trwest............no collision button was never used..........

but have you tried to re-install again the trle?....>>>>>>>
too complicated, i might try, but i need more advice here.......

what about the wad? it is completely done with ten files, but correctly done or simply copied from a previous version?....

it is from geckokid's tai shan wad, his wad was based on the library wad, with a few other things, the wad if perfectly fine, it was working before, the main problem is about the climbing surfaces, that mustve screwed it up!

well, to find out if it is the climbing wall you can do two simple things: erase every climbing wall, and try to output.

If this does not work still, try (without saving) to erase completely the room.

if it works, try to put again those climbs, but in the correct way.

If it still does not work, we can try something else, but now I have to leave.... I will come back in some hours...

In the middle, I hope this will help

A little step aside of your problem, there is another reasen for the crash of your output. Did you make a flipmap. Gave it a number and deleted the flipmap? If you did and you leave the number in your F the output of your level will not turn good. The level will not output or the level will crash with loading...

ok, i have just started this level for not long, so i didnt put any objects or triggers yet.......

i found a solution to this, but not a total solution

since the wad was based on the library wad, i replaced the wad with the original library wad, and then used that the output the wad, that works

but the problem is, that i cant put my custom sky horizon into the wad with trrrwest, do you think it's the trwest that screws this up?

One thing you can try but it doesn't always work. Make a copy of the prj file and then rename it. Then load that version into a freshly loaded editor and then try to output again. I'm sorry if this doesn't work but it did save my work a couple of times.

Yes, the level can be too big. Not in the total number of rooms, but in the total area. There is a portion of my next level that takes place in a city, and it crashed every time I tried to play it until I divided it into two seperate levels! I hope this helps....
