User created map
« on: Wednesday, January 29, 2014, 10:53:09 AM »
Hi all this is the old bear (Grizz). I have been playing and running AA servers for a long time. I have 4 AA25 Assist servers that I run now. A friend of mine (BlackMasses) created a map for AA 2.8.5 that we worked on for about a year getting the bugs out. It is a great map and was wondering if you all would please check it out and see what ya think. My clan still have me spool it up from time to time to play it and think everyone else would like it to. Thanks the old Bear, Grizz.

Looks like a Swamp Raid clone.

I tried downloading it to Maps folder, and opening it with ArmyOps.exe, but opening this map from ArmyOps.exe just gave me errors.  Other maps load fine.

"Ran out of virtual memory. To prevent this condition, you must free up more space on your primary hard disk."
I have an SSD with a really small page file (400m).  I'm guessing something about the size of the map vs the pagefile?  I didn't know AA required alot of VM but seems to work fine for other maps.

Did you run it on 2.8.5? Because that's the version it was made for and that's the one it will work on.

And I don't think opening maps 'with' armyops.exe has ever worked. What you need to do is start armyops.exe and when it's loaded type
Code: [Select]
start mapnameit should be
Code: [Select]
start OBTif the filename is corret in the link.
You can also use 'open' instead of 'start'.

That's what I did.
Went to start-> typed in ArmyOps.exe, found the version in Assist, opened that folder, went up a folder and dropped in Maps, then ran ArmyOps.exe and used the 'open' command.  'start OBT' doesn't work either

Opening in the 2.8.5 editor worked fine for me.

That's exactly what I said you SHOULDN'T do. Assist runs on 2.5, but what I said was to use 2.8.5.

Reason is, 2.8.5 maps are encrypted and AA 2.5 doesn't know how to read that stuff so all the regular map information is like, in another language and it crashes because it doesn't understand.

I know, that's why ELiZ made the converter. Because of that in order to play/test a map made for 2.8.5 you need to use that version of the game (or the equivalent editor).
