Its been a while sence the last time i made a Call of Duty map... (because the last one i made errored out so much, i got mad)... But, i have started again!!! And i need some help:

Ok, so i made a simple map... yea... simple... like, small room... xD

It compiles all good... no errors or anything...
I try to play it... It loads... and right before the map is done loading, call of duty closes: "CoDMP.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close."

If anyone can help, that would be VERY great!
Thanks in advance!!!

I had a similar problem when I first started mapping in COD, my first mapping effort in any game. What I did not understand is that it helps to have a non-leaking skybox built and textured first, then create your first test "room" inside that box. Because if your "room" is all there is to your map, and it leaks, well, that won't work usually.

You say you get no compile errors? Are you sure? Are you reading the MS-DOS window text during and after the compile, do you scroll up through all the text? Make sure there are no ***LEAKED**** messages up there.

If this is not the problem, read up on the tutorials here, remove any custom maps from COD/main, and as a last resort, re-install COD and the COD tools both.

nope, no errors, i even checked that there were no holes...

I have the exact same problem except I can't even get to the main menu without it doing that.

The problem here is, the error doesn't tell us anything about WHY CoD crashes. It's just the windows error telling you CoD crashed (do you want to send....)

Post your compile log so we can see if there is anything wrong.

Did the 'creating your first map' tutorial work for both of you? (If you haven't tried it, do so).

here u go:
