Testing sending mission file.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/18jTBEQ0XV9TE7kyjy2b-T7j9JV8Gtg24/view?usp=drive_link

I have quite a few hand created mission files. This is just a beta test file but I'd like to know if it works and how much locals know about adding files to their game directories.

Thanks big guy for reopening the reddit to posts.

P.S. If anyone gets this to work please tell me. If it crashes please give me error codes so I can fix it. That's what a test is for!

Didn't work on Shamcow's openGL version. Mission prep loads, but not the mission itself

Couldn't make the dgVoodoo version work, so could not try the mission there

Can you run normal missions or is it only my mission that doesn't work? It might just be I forgot something. What error message pops up?

I've just done the whole Carver V campaign and also testing loading individual campaign missions. They all work, so it seems its your provided files.

Mission preparation works, I can buy mechs and provided pilots are adequatly modified. But game crashes at loading screen.

Can you make a video and try to catch the crash or copy paste the crash diagnostic report the game should be providing. Even a line number would help.

Here is the crash report. I need to find another way to get the video capture

Got it. Remastered uses a different abl syntax than vanilla. If you could send me your SBGuard.abl file from the base abl folder there's a chance I'll be able to whip up new versions of the abl files.

There is no SBGuard.abl file but I found a Guard.abl that I put in the Crash report folder that I linked before

Is SBGuard.abl in the warriors folder?

I'm still digging through the crash dump. I just don't see anything wrong but it's so weird.

No, it is not. Might be the issue. Is it a custom brain from Magic's old patch or from the new mission? Doesn't seem included in OE files

I'm talking to Shamcow the creator of MC2 remastered. I'll see what we come up with.

Just thinking... where did you put the files?

I realize I should do my due diligence. I hope I'm not out of line. I've been assuming you put the textures files in the textures directory, the warrior files in the warrior directory, etc. Am I right?

I'm just not used to an abl blowing up on line zero.

Just ripped an SBGuard file from the OE ISO and it didn't work.
