| Well. When I try to change the maps for the tutorials, BFh shuts down with no reason. When I click the play now button, it looks like it's loading for a sec, and then suddenly it closes. And nothing happens further. It's kinda strange since I tried it the way of the readme included in the lowlands and fork downloads. And I tried the way of pro_modder's guide... How can I solve this?

| Do you got any other modifications "installed"?

| What about trying to delete your mod folder and do it all over again? I know it might be boring, but atleast it is better than it not working

| Are you sure you're not using the all clothes .xml file? Thanks to Mrtn I know it causes crashes, so use the original BFH .xml file or the fixed version here http://www.filefront.com/16881741/DefaultCustomization.xml. BTW, the guide was written by me.

| How is your custom mod folder set up? I found it was best to copy all the vanilla archives to your new mod instead of having the clientArchives/serverArchives con file path to the vanilla files. Also note you will need to update the maplist.con file in your mod's settings folder (or it the vanilla bfheroes maplist.con file. I'm not sure if it's mod specific) to load the new map otherwise it will try and load the wrong map. You must also make sure to disable TuT mode from SeaSide Skirmish otherwise it might just ignore your map mode changes. You only need to remove the mode from the desc file. You don't need to actually remove the mode folder for it from the zip archives.

| Did you read up on how to disable TT mode from Seaside Skirmish? If you don't do that, the game most likely will ignore the other map(s) you add TT to and will just keep loading Seaside instead.
