Theres nothing really complex about this problem. :

It was like any other save.. i wasnt experimenting with anything abnormal in the editor. I click save... and something bad has happened.
I figure it was a silly bug, so, i close scmdraft and try again (i had recently saved before)
Behold! another crash -.-
I figure theres something iffy about my map... so i start troubleshooting. i opened a different map and tried to save.
WTF!! another crash!!! >.>
Something is wrong, should i send in a diagnostic file... and just re-install?



None.

Use ScmDraft 0.7.3. Less features, but much more stable.

Most of the time you just have to delete all your backup saved files and it stops. If it gets above a certain amount of megabytes then it does that.

My SCMDraft crashed the other night for some random reason. I don't know if this helps, but at the time, I had written my first hyper trigger. Were you by any chance using hyper triggers? And is it possible that some versions of SCMDraft doesn't like hyper triggers?



None.

Hyper triggers have nothing to do with it. That was merely a coincidence.
Deleting the backup database is a good idea though.

Master has given Dobby a doctorate! Dobby is free!

If it still crashes, try changing the .MPQ to broodat, or manually going into your C: drive to select it in the Master Settings.

If you do all that good stuff, and it keeps crashing, here's a download straight from SCFT.

EDIT: it is 0.8.0, however. I haven't had any problems, and my computer is probably the first to have errors.

NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating
