    Exclamation RC3 crashes

    Why does my DK2 editor RC3 version crash when I try to save My self-made level ? First I had no problems with it but all of a sudden it started to crash all the time, when I load an official DK2 level and try to save that one it doesn't crash :S

    This edition version is highly unstable. Unfortunately, it generates some critical errors and writes them in your map. As the result, you may either unable to load or to save it.

    Use editor pro. It has many functions and it is very stable. UseRC3 only when you want to add things like hatchery and lair.

    There is no way to fix your broken map, unfortunately. You may try to save some files like triggers, or variables, and create a map with the same name and replace those files. but it may bug you out.

    Always backup your work. For example, I am now working on a very difficult, huge map, I have 3 copies of it, just in case.

    Question Re: RC3 crashes

    Hapuga, are you sure about "This edition version is highly unstable. Unfortunately, it generates some critical errors and writes them in your map."
    If this is true then no one should use the rc3 version. Having corruption inside the files is a very bad thing.

    GamingAddict15, you might try out to reset some settings configurations. Use the normal editor and go to:
    Configuration -> Reset To DK2 Defauls
    Level -> Edit Level Variables -> Reset To Global Defaults
    Level -> Reset All Creature Properties

    If this is not helping you can send me the files and i will try to find the problem and fix it somehow :P

    The RC3 version should be used to add Lairs and Hatcheries and adding triggers and actions inside parties.

    Then, use the final or PRO version for everything else.

    Yes, unfortunately, I am.

    Well, I would not suggest it for triggers. It bugged some of my maps, where I tried to add creatures to maps through triggers. sometimes it just changed the creature type and it appeared on the map as dead, and sometimes it made the map uneditable totally.
