My friend and I made new custom units for our map, and we followed everything in the documentation and the custom sides thread in the FAQ, however there is a problem.



The VisualMunge error log targets it as this being the problem, and here's the SWBF2 error code:

Could you post the LUA?

Hmmmmm.......

That image.Is that a mode?If so,is that all you put in there?I'm not the best modder but if that is all you put you need the rest of the stuff.

A lua would be good like the post above.

Post your LUA, please, as well as any sort of munge log that may have popped up.

That's the munged script; most of its contents should be illegible and they aren't supposed to look necessarily "normal". However, lol, the Lua munge should have put more junk in the file, but didn't, likely due to a syntax or just general error in his script.

I am basically still a beginner so I can't really help with him.Maybe you can.I love your Mass Effect mod.It is great.

Lol. Thanks.

Maybe the Command posts?Or maybe the wampa.

I don't believe so

When you munge do you see something similar to this at the start of the munge when you save the LUA?:
****ERROR****

Off topic:
What map is it?

On topic:
Did you customize the sides?

Yes it does, it also lists this in the VisualMunger error log- It directs to the blank file that I posted an image to as seen above.

It's just a test map, we didn't want to risk screwing up the LUA, ect. to the real one, which is Malachor V, for SWBF2's ~SITH EMPIRE~ guild.

Yes, that's what I mentioned in the title.

You are missing a " here.

I ran into this problem so many times in the past. It's funny how one little mistake like that will cause some major problems. It can be an easy fix, you just need to be as observant as Bob was, really pay attention to each change you make.

Thank you Bob! Munged perfectly...but now..

It isn't munging the SET.lvl file for the map folder you put in your addon folder.
I checked SET under Sides when I munged it and Common as well.

Looks like the munge of your custom side failed.
Any errors when you munge SET?

All my REQ. files seem be in order. Is it talking about the Sides REQ. or the Game Req. though?

The munge has problems with the set_sith_commando.lvl.req. This could mean a lot of things, but the problem has something to do with your set_sith_commando unit. May we see the unit's and the side's REQ?

Unit Req.- Side Req.- *The { }'s are spaced correctly and match the JDI Example perfectly, they just look that way on here.

The REQs are fine, one more source of trouble I can think of would be the unit's ODF. Search it for
mistakes or just post it.
Something else I noticed in your LUA, when you load the units you refer to them as SE1_sith_something and when you set up the sides as SET_sith_something.
