I posted it on scs forum a while ago but no one answered so I thought I could post it here...

Hi!
I've been working on a mod for a while and it has been great until I did a template that crashes the whole game every time I'm near it...
My thought is that the game "can't handle" the Swedish letter so it crashes the whole game but I'm not sure what to do if it is so.

Here's the last ERROR"-s" until the game crashes:

Code: Select all

00:16:35.791 : <ERROR> Sign template item with id 3321102334 does not exist in template 'HJO-avfart'

Probably because you are using spaces and Swedish characters in the filename.
Keep your filenames short and don't use special characters

Indeed. It's often ill-advinced to use uncommon characters in filenames when it comes to modding. This also includes commas, spacebars and any type of accent. Use underscores ( _ ) instead.
Your daily dose of wisdom!

Don't ask us for a release date; we don't know either.

But how do I solve this problem easy... I mean, could I rename the template in template.sii and the template in the template folder or do I have to do the template again (do all the texts/frames/images again on the template)...
