I am hoping that someone has experienced what is happening to me and has a simple answer.

I have just started my second attempt to build an actual course and thanks to the community I have a great heightmap with overlay. The first course caused me a few problems, all of my own making and so I am hopeful what is happening now is correctable. I imported CF into the new project without the terrain, then imported the new Terrain asset with height map. I then saved the scene, project and backed up the terrain. Next I  created a tee and green with flags, finally added an out of bounds. I then compiled it to make sure all was working. It compiled. I then created a road, fairways, put in trees, both speedtrees and those that came with CF, fairway fringes, rough. I saved the scene, project and backed up the terrain. I then tried to compile it. it ran only for a few seconds, pinged and stopped compiling. I then started CF again and tried again, no luck. I closed Unity then opened it again. CF menu had disappeared and I could not get it back.

 

I have had this happen three times now. I checked to make sure that there were no crossed meshes. Has anyone any ideas? I even deleted everything back to the point where it had originally compiled but that didn't work either. (That was before I closed Unity and lost everything!)

I love CF in spite of everything but I know that I know little about unity and wonder if it is in Unity thaat the problem exits.

 

As I said at the beginning I have successfully created eighteen holes that worked so why am I now having a problem?

Maybe check your build settings to get the Perfect Parallel menu back at least. Unity crashed on me once and that seemed to fix it. Under "File"->"Build Settings". The platform should be "PC, Mac & Linux Standalone". Fingers crossed....that's the only issue I had with my first full project.

When you got the error, there is normally an error message appears in the bottom left of the screen, right at bottom. 

 

If it happens again try and make note of that, and it hopefully will point you, or others here in the direction of the problem

Did you use Easy Roads for your roads and fail to remove the program stuff before compiling? I believe this can cause issues.

Thanks everyone for the info, I will try what you suggest. I don't use Easy roads so it isn't that but thanks anyway

Occasionally I get a compile Error, usually says "unauthorized access", Removing the course build file from the PP courses folder and rebuilding the course fixes that for me.
