Did anyone already have this problem ?

Red X'es like this means that CC3+ isn't able to find external art files referenced from the map file.

Hello. I suggest sharing the FCW file.

Thanks !
I see that this applies to the second map. The first one seems to have red areas that look like terrain and not Xs. Are you suggesting that a missing texture might cause this? I've heard of a red X but not a red polygon.
Missing fills and symbols both result in red Xs.
The first one seems to have red areas that look like terrain and not Xs.
It's just an illusion caused by the shape of the poly, the size of the red X, and the fact that it is in the background partially covered by other fills. Look closer at it, and you'll see the sharp straight edges between the red X and the white background.
Lesson learned. Thank you.
As for the second map, I can imagine easily, being Sue'free parchment annual.
The first one is home made, so I don't really understand why some parts are missing now. Probably moved files.
