cerious1409 Posted June 8, 2024 Posted June 8, 2024 What happened? -After updating a script the mission stopped loading. The loading bar does not appear, just the text "loading..." down below. -After reverting to a previous version of the mission, it still froze at the same point. I use a SVN SourceForge revision system, so a mistake is impossible. This .miz is known to have worked. -Updating GPU drivers as well as updating the sim yielded the same results, no changes. -Deleting and remaking the saved games folder also didn't lead to any desirable outcomes. -I can start other missions, just not these. It seems to be some limitation or bug. Ideas: -Is there a size limit to .miz files? My .miz is about 45mb because of >100 audio files. -Is there a line limit to scripts? Mine is >1500 lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I've provided the log files down below and I'm ready to provide any files required.

diamond22 Posted June 8, 2024 Posted June 8, 2024 I think that an urgent fix is needed. Too many CTDs from too many users with the last update...

I fixed it. Stupid mistake on my end. I loaded too many sound files at once. I now changed the .wav's to .ogg and created a sound library inside the .miz, so I don't have to load them in via triggers. That fixed the issue My Stuff: I've got basic 3D CAD knowledge, intermediate LUA/C# knowledge and high DCS mission editor, scripting and livery creation skills.
