If you've added any new animations, make sure they are under the 707=INVISO in the [Animations] list. But first, you must also copy & paste the Firestorm animations UNDER the INVISO entry until adding any custom animations.

As I'm using UMP 0.2, all firestorm animations are inside Rules.ini, and a lot of them are beyond 707=INVISO . Could this be the problem?
Anyway, moved my animations from the end (beyond 748) to 320's and still get the IE.

No, UMP is working fine and designed to be further and easier modable.

If your savegame crashes it has to be your modification.

Upload your modified ini files, so we can have a look, as there are too many reasons why it crashes for you to find out step by step.

If you haven't modified firestrm.ini or artfs.ini (which should not be edited in UMP), then the ones you've uploaded should be enough.

Problems i've found while flying over the inis
-DUMMYE1 has no Image. Infantry without an image or existent sequence cause savegame loading crashes.
Same is true for ENGNGDIE.

-using the same name for multiple different entries can cause problems: SecGuard is an infantry and a house

-the comment "Easy AI Aircrafts" has no semicolon, thus causing the game to actually read this as an [AircraftTypes] section entry. (sloppy coding is the reason for unstable mods and crashes Wink

)

-[MLRS] warhead has a : instead of ; for commenting out the first verses entry. Thus the game reads this and can cause problems (sloppy coding is the reason for unstable mods and crashes Wink

)
