It sounds like you are playing an EXP map without installing EXP ? Have you updated the game, installed EXP ? Which map is it you get this error ?

No, I don't succeed really to enter any map, even in formality single game, I after the installation perform update with the version 1.5.0.5, the game it regularly departs but it jams as it begins to position the map, I don't know whether to do.
Do some say to install the mod, but the mod thing I am?

I'm not understanding completely your translation. From what I can understand - I would say your install of BHD is not good. Also:

What kind of computer do you have ?
What version of Windows are you running ?
What version of DirectX are you using ?

This error caused by the game not finding the terrain specified in the mission.

Causes..

1. Corrupted pff file if the error is happening with a standard Map..fix..reinstall to create new pff file..

2. You have downloaded a map for a mod that has new terrains, or a BHDTS map..fix..download the correct mod for the mission with the error.

Thanks EE... I think that was what I was trying to say ..lol... but saying it the way you did --> much clearer.

LMAO Blue..

Yeah, could be a TS map, Deep Jungle, EXP or Final Conflict..they all have custom terrains..

Pity more people don't put a readme file in the zip with the bms file, like actually telling the player what mod they need to run the map..this has been one of the biggest "Head Bangs" for years..everyone seems to think we have ESP, and know what mod we need..
