So when ever I try to open a map the map being Sims High School V G

When I do it just gives me this

String Corruption detected in line 1036, file.\CCHK.cpp
String ID: 978. String Contains: Null


Anyone know if its possible to fix this?

Not sure if this is even an error in the sense of the word, of if it's just information. It tells you that string number 978 is empty. Maybe it just is?

You can open up ScmD's string editor, find the string and edit it to contain something (if only a space). See if that "fixes" it.

Oaky. how do I open the Trigger editor without opening the map? Im 'newish' at SCMdraft, by that I mean I haven't used it since before SC2:HOTS


NEVER MIND! I updated from .8 and now the map suddenly opens no problem!

[...] trigger editor[...]
I meant string editor. Because while it's possible to edit the string in the trigger editor (classic trigedit) you'll have a harder time finding it there.

Ya, assumed it's not a real error. Though an empty string still seems like something that's not intended.

I see you !

The string corruption message means that the reference count stored in a string (so number of sections which use it) does not match a recalculated value for that reference count. Since the string is NULL, it sounds like it may have been deleted manually.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.
I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
