I had alot of initial problems with 'wrong resource' error messages because I was working with my original Blitz install which I have been messing around with alot. Even clearing all the obvious additions and changes I would still get the messages.
The only sure way is to re-install Blitz and add nothing else to the Run\Data directory.

Will know more tomorrow as will be doing some on-line testing.
However, you do not need to have any other mod installed. Nothing else should be in the Data\Run directory other than the original files.
I have successfully played several MP games using my LAN, but start on-line testing tomorrow.

On-line testing went extremely well today. If you create any Ostfront MP maps would be interested in seeing them  Adrian |

Well, thats how its working with our MP maps so far. If you have the luxury of 2 PC's set up as a LAN you can quickly check if the map you are creating causes any 'wrong resources' errors.
What I do is first test an original map to see if I can get it running over the LAN, convert it to Ostfront and retest to see if I get any errors messages. If during conversion you get a message saying some objects were removed you can basically throw the map to one side.
If the map is okay though then just modify it using the Ostfront units as you see fit.
