Hello, I'm at work atm so I can't realy compare it but you're CfgPatches have the same classname as your world name wich is... not good.

 

In this class :

 

class CfgWorldList
{
 class abc_sample{};
};

Your config file say "Hey load abc_sample as a map in your map list please" but the engine detect that you have abc_sample in the CfgPatches and in your world but it will probably load the first one or both and the engine will say "nope that not a world or the config file is wrong dude".

 

Try something different maybe rename your CfgPatches to abc_sample to abc_sample_map and try to recompile your project.

 

eg. : 

 

class CfgPatches
{
  class abc_sample_map
  {
    units[] = {};
    weapons[] = {};
    requiredVersion = 1.0;
    author = "Heisen";
  };
};
 
 
The best is to realize your config.cpp file yourself and use personnal naming for your classes (ex AntharielTerrains_MapName_CfgInfo will sounds like AT_Tilos_World for the main configurations class and AT_Tilos_Patches for the CfgPatches header), like that you can easily see if you doing some errors like this. Your subworld name is a perfect example "Island" will proprably create some confusion in the game if a player load some others terrains that use this classname too.
 
Try also to delete some useless things that you have in your config file (#Include _ARMA_...) and outsourcing some class into hpp files to see more clearly. The best way to learn is to use a custom World class and not CAWorld or some preconfig worlds like that if you want my opinion because that will force you to work properly and you'll learn a lot by doing that, +  you can bring more personalization with a custom CfgWorld.

Hmmm if my memory is good this error basically say that one of your #include file does not exist or have a wrong name.

 

Try to check your #include "cfgSurfaces.h" and #include "island.h" or comment this line and recompile to see if this is the error.

Yes if PboProject doesn't compile your map then it's beceause there's an error in your files, PboProject works fine.

 

Try to see the binlogs in PboProject and copy them (output logs and binlogs) here.

Try to replace all of “abc_sample†instances with “islandâ€.

Also, correct the following:

class CfgWorlds

{

 class CAWorld;

 class Island: CAWorld

 {

  class Grid;

  class DefaultClutter;

 };

 class abc_sample: Island

 {

 

 

and change it into:

class CfgWorlds

{

 class CAWorld;

 class Stratis: CAWorld

 {

  class Grid;

  class DefaultClutter;

 };

 class island: Stratis

 {

 

and mind upper and lower cases. Sometimes they do matter some others they may not…
