Title: Noo! My Mission isnt opening!
Post by: foolfromhell on July 27, 2007, 02:30:57 am

My mission is giving me errors that Gamma wing isnt in the "#Objects" file and it wont let me open the file!
I spent a lot of time on this mission, my first FRED mission ever.
Attached is the mission. Can someone figure out whats wrong?

Battle of Endor Syndrome.

Basically you've broken the rule of going over 100 objects. FRED will quite happily let you do that and then will completely fail to load the mission again because although you can write a mission with more than 100 you can't load it again.

Open the mission in notepad and delete 15 objects that aren't mentioned in SEXPs. The mission will then load in FRED allowing you to make less drastic changes to the mission.

Waypoints count?
I had a bunch of waypoints since the player has to avoid many patrols in his stealth mission.
edit: I dont understand the notepad file. Can someone explain to me how to delete all mentions of Gamma wind and a few of the VAC containers?
edot: nvm. I figured it out.
