Little Bitty Level Problem

alright,, ive created another level (its currently finished),, if i open it in JCS (1.23), say "Save and Run", it goes just fine,, but, if i open a new server with this level, or when i do it in splitscreen co-op, as soon as the player(s) stop flashing, it crashes,,

i really dont know what the probem is/could be - whether i could have too much in a certain layer, whether i have too many destructo-thingies, whether i have something else im not supposed to have,,?

I don't know, but maybe I just misunderstood it because of your overusage of commas.

This is a problem that occurs when a combonation of three things may happen:

1) The level is too big to hold in Jazz's graphics "sandbox."
2) The level features too many animations.
3) The level uses a tileset that is quite large.

Usually, when this occurs, the player will disappear because the game is limiting animations and taking away from the player's animations. If this becomes bad enough, certain actions (such as Spaz's sidekick) may cause crashes. At the worst, the game will simply crash when moving. To fix:

1) Reduce animations.
2) Reduce unneeded level size.
3) If all else fails, restart with a different tileset.

Good luck.

You probably don't have a start position.

Run this level under Spy online.

From the RUN menu, go to the place where Jazz2.exe is, and use this command

Jazz2.exe -SPY

Dump the online log here please.

Do you have a non-animated tile with a destruct or trigger on it?
