Hello Smittox and welcome :) Your avatar picture looks familiar from a post in the old Agetec forums. Were you a member there by any chance?
Making an MHM file is usually not complicated. It sounds to me like your MHM is misaligned with the MSM, your map Pieces don't join seamlessly, or perhaps you are choosing the incorrect MHM file when you create your map Piece? If you post the MQO files you are using for the problematic MSM/MHM I can tell you what is going wrong.
While SomEx may work fine for you and is definitely worth trying, I'll just say that the last Ex-enabled Rathmor demo would not run on my winXP PC. It did run on a Win7 PC but I had at least three crashes within 30 minutes of playing. Mick (Holy Diver) is the creator of Ex and is a bit biased about it's praises. I do not agree that original (non-Ex) SoM games are as "unplayable" and "obsolete" as Mick states. But at least Mick is still working on fixing Ex bugs whereas the quirks in original SoM are here to stay.
