why is the 400fx limit error so sticky?? I removed all my custom fx in the IWD and ff and its still there, I have ran the map before when they werent included.
Custom fx does not belong in the IWD - it's not going to get loaded from there and it's just wasted filesize.
Custom FX only goes into FFs, and commenting them from the FFs is only 50% of the removal process. If you are still calling loadFX() lines for those fx in your scripts, it counts towarods the 400FX limit. Also each weapon that you add counts towards it because of the muzzleflash and shellejection fx.

Just restarted. Everything including the menu and guns are perfect, as long as I delete localized_nazi_zombie_titan_ugx.ff ??
localized_nazi_zombie_titan_ugx.ff is a renamed version of your map's mod.ff, so check your mod.csv list for your map and see what you're putting in it.

Ive just been slowly adding in the scripts one or two at a time. But even when I went back and made a whole new map without the UGX mod, it still crashed. But I did accidently replace my DLC3.gsc in the root. Can you paste yours?

this is hard..
The file loading you're looking at is multithreaded and isn't time-accurate - forget the console exists here because it isn't going to help you. The last loaded FF isn't necessarily the FF which has caused the crash. Think in terms of recent changes you've made to your map file or root directory.
Im reinstalling my modtools. I was slowly adding files 2-3 at a time to the UGX mod. And I think my Callbacksglobal.gsc was the one that cause it to crash.
what file content would cause this? too many initial file calls? or does Call of Duty give itself an acceptable time to load the mod?

That's probably excessive, I get engine crashes occasionally and can trace them back to a script change or map error.
Exceptions are anything the engine encounters where it doesn't know how to proceed. A list of some of the things I've encountered which cause crashes:
Giving a custom function the same name as an engine-defined function
Having an empty while loop with no waits, even if it hasn't been called.
Having a gibbing model which has no torsoModel set.
There's been more that I can't remember, too. Basically the point is that you just have to work backwards and eliminate recent changes one by one until you can boot the map - once you've done that you narrow down the cause within the changes you removed and fix it. Then you can put everything else back/enable everything.
