[SOLVED] Strange error never seen before

[Pierwolf]

so i've 7 playable chars, everything worked well until today.

i was implementing a new map system,  when suddenly, on the select screen, after selecting one of the last two playable chars loaded in models.txt, the game crashes for no reason at all.

i'm not using skipselect or anything similar, and it works flawlessly with the first 5 chars.

i'm using Build 4153.

this is the error, i've never seen it before:

********** An Error Occurred **********
*            Shutting Down            *

Assertion `name' failed in function 'makelowercp' at source/gamelib/models.c:20.
This is an OpenBOR bug.  Please report this at www.chronocrash.com.

Hmmm... are you using weapon models for the characters?

 

[Pierwolf]

yes, on the "map" stage. do you think it's something related? but i always used this trick since K&D endless quest, never had problems... maybe i've made something wrong in the code... any advice?

EDIT:
Yes bloodbane, the weapons from the 2 not working chars were not loaded properly... i've fixed them and now everything works. thanks again for the hint!
