PROGRAM TERMINATED.

I have created several missions. When ever I add over 5 fighters from the fighter list, my computer crashes to desktop
I have run custom missions with more than 40 destroyers, the mission did not CTD.

Can anyone help?

[Dragonlead]

I don't know if this has anything to do with the CTD, but are any of those fighters supposed to belong to your carrier? Also, one of the fighter groups has an IFF of 0. Is that deliberate?

V/R

[Dragonlead]

PS - this should also probably go into the modding forum as opposed to support.

V/R

[phalanderp]

According to the custom mission setup in the manual, it states you should have a team of non hostile ships in the region. Maybe I read the instructions wrong. I will check..........

[Dragonlead]

Completely unnecessary if you don't want them there. If you specifically want something to shoot at you can have them, but otherwise they are pure window dressing.

V/R

[phalanderp]

I will take them out, and try agian
 
Thanks
