World builder crashes for some reason, need help!

Hello, I'm working on a big map, but world builder crashes almost constantly now. Every time I place 2 objects, it crashes. Is there an object, grass or some other kind of limit that I transcended? (Please ignore my bad english.)

I don't want to lose this map, there are many hours of effort in, and it's highly detailed. (eye candy! )

I don't think there is a limit, I have tons of objects, SPLT, splines...ect, in my map.

Can you throw up some screenshots of your highly detailed area's, as to give an idea of how much you have?

What are your computer specs?

how big exactly?

Using the select objects, on my map, I zoomed out and selected everything. I have 3790 objects splines SPLTS..ect, on a 800x800 playable area, 928x928 total. I'm having no issues. If you are referring to the grass tool, it uses Bloom rendering, and is not the problem. I have no water on my map, but I've added water before, just to see how it would be, and had no issues, but that was some time ago, and less objects. You could eliminate that as an issue by deleting your water, or disabling as suggested above, and seeing if it still crashes.
You specs look more than sufficient. The screenshots look normal for detail. The question was asked earlier, are you using object splines to make hedge rows, walls...ect, or are you placing objects 1 at a time?

The map has really good details btw, impressive!

You should be using object splines everywhere u get a chance. Those reeds along the water are a great example, and you will find it will save you much time as well. Use them of walls, fences, basically anything that is in a row. This is most likely the issue.

Is there a tutorial for this? Because I know how to use texture and deform splines, but I'm not sure how to use object splines, I can't add objects to the spline list for example.

And about my previous post, can I edit the swampgrass_m_01 to object splines instead of objects?

Thanks for helping me out!

EDIT: Ah, I found how to add it to the list. Lets try......

Just remember, there is two lists, default, and currently selected. That confused me at first. You should be able to zoom out, and double click an object, and all of the same object should select.

The splines should work as objects in game, I.e walls will act as cover and can be crushed. The wall mode just pushes the ends of each wall section together so there is no gaps.
Once you have placed your splines you can edit the state of certain sections, by clicking on the 'edit state' button in the 'current' (when an object is selected) section of the object spline tool. This will allow you to create sections that are damaged, i.e. broken down fences.

This page should give you plenty on info on splines http://www.coh2.org/guides/10390/worldbuilder-the-spline-tool-in-detail

Hope this helps.
