Bad String?


05-04-2003, 04:38 PM
when I try to play my map, I get this:

Host Error: Bad String

This happened after I added two dod_control_points

its something to do with your paths on one of your entitys , so in other words a path is not correct/ sprite or something

No it's not, it's because he's using the extremely buggy VHE 3.5. Same thing happened to me on my NS map, I had to switch back to the old version and replace all the hives I had added with the new version, I also switched back to the old FGD, that fixed it, I don't know how to fix the problem with a DoD map though since I haven't had the problem on my DoD map. Right now I'd only suggest using 3.5 to clip models.

It turned out that it worked fine after I had deleted my particle_renderer...

Could it be that there is a problem with some of the new stuff in the fgd?

Dunno if it will help but I hope it does.
