What your problem probably is is that Sapien cant find all the tags that your .scenario file says exists/ some of the tags in your map are corrupted. Run your .scenario file through tool or tool++ and it should give you a list of errors that you can locate and possibly fix.

It would of said missing tags in his debug, which it didn't.

that wouldnt be it, because 1st i tried bloodgulch, and it wouldnt load... i extracted every tag for that level into the levels\test folder

that wouldnt work so then i did the same for BA( Boarding Action )

In your display properties is your color quality set to 32bit?

Hmm? Sapien closes immediatly after it appears...

You mean desktop>properties>display?

EDIT: Ok i set it to 32 bit... and it opens... finally!

Thank you guyz so much for your support... now i can start modding...

Cant believe it was that simple

Thanks again everyone
