I added a unit and...

[Unspeakable Horror]

now the cheat menu doesn´t work anymore!
Anyone else having the same problem?

The game loads, I start a new game and then when I try to use the cheat menu to see my new unit the game crashes and Windows blue screen appears.

The unit I added is the Legion from CTP I by the way.

Post the lines you added and to what files... the assumption I have is you didn't add all the required files and the editor realizes this when you open it. You should have changes in newsprite.txt, unit.txt, gl_str.txt, uniticon.txt and the graphic files you added.

I don't see anything wrong there... as long as you have the corresponding tgas and such it should work. hmmm... I'll try to do the same thing and get back to you tomorrow sometime.
