So I like to mess with the maps from time to time like many people. I have run into this error the first time I opened the map saying "Read too many overrun buffer" In my google search it tends to mean something like there are too many models, shadows etc etc.
Is there any options to test or identify what the problem is because ive deleted maybe 100+ trees and other effects that dont actually effect the map.

yes it caused by too many models that cause tons of shadows to show up theres a option in the wb that disables shadows completely - thats the one i used for this scenario and we preferred it most often. Edited by user Wednesday, November 27, 2019 7:18:37 AM(UTC)

could you tell me how to turn the shadows off? I looked in the WB options but I dont see it, probably in an obvious spot too.

humm sadly that does not appear to be the problem @_@
The only editing that ive done on the map has been adding more supply and a single Chinese dozer, ive deleted 90% of the map sounds (waves, dogs, insects etc) and a good number of trees. I dont know why this isnt working.

This happened the moment that I exported the map and file without editing anything. I even deleted the old files and re imported/exported them.

sorry i mean the first time i opened the map, i got the errors and everything too but didnt edit the map. thought WTF is this and just closed it.
I did a mission run but when this mission came up it crashed.
I dont think I edited much on that map aside from adding and deleting objects like resources, trees and sound points. I know I didnt do anything code wise or with triggers so I am at a loss for why its having the problems.

Ok, do you understand what the problem is though? Like I said, I didnt really do much editing to it at all.

Its been re extracted, it appears to be working fine now, I was just wondering what the issue was, if it got corrupted somehow during the first few extractions or something. But thank you for all the help, i really appreciate it. Edited by user Sunday, December 8, 2019 8:10:15 PM(UTC)
