Moonslayer Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 I have created a basic scenario and tried to playtest it. As I was starting a new game I got an error message and the game closed. Upon checking the error log I found this: [11/19/2006 9:04:40; 5.1.2600; 1024x768x32(1); v1.04] DIRECTX FAILED(draw_war_map_to_buffer): dderr_invalidrect The game runs perfectly for all of the standard scenarios and also mads I download from CMODs. I have checked the editor and there are no errors flagged up... I am stumped. Can anyone offer any advice please? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Can you try updating your video card driver as well as updating to the latest version of DirectX? Usually one of these resolves the issue 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonslayer Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 Already had the latest video driver and I have now updated DirectX... sadly I got the same error. This is no great surprise, however, as sc2 works for every other scenario, official or user-made except for the one I have spent today making. I had assumed that the editor had not picked up an obvious error I had made in the editing phase. I will continue to investigate, thanks for the help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonslayer Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 Problem solved... The map was 56x22 and although larger than the minimum size allowed the war-map was unable to be written by the programme and it went mammaries up. All working fine now after I added a few extra tiles to the map. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
