It has to be something wrong in ZE. Of course, my frail mind could be dying and I might of missed something wrong in your LUA....

Code: Select all

ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\rep.lvl", 
"rep_inf_ep3_rifleman", 
"rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer", 
"rep_inf_ep3_engineer", 
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper", 
"rep_inf_ep3_officer", 
"rep_inf_ep3_jettrooper", 
"rep_hover_fightertank", 
"rep_hero_anakin", 
"rep_hover_barcspeeder")

Have you actually created an entire republic custom side? If not, then take away the dc:

Copying and pasting an entire shipped side is an extremely inefficient way to add custom units into a map.

I doubt that this is causing the problem, though.

And AI still don't show up.

Start commenting out parts of your lua. Comment out all but one unit for each team (use official sides, not DC ones). See it it works. Comment out all the CPs. See if it works (note should load and start Victory timer). You need to remove features until your map stats working again. When it starts working, you know the problem is with the last feature set you removed. Narrow down the possibilites of the error.

commenting? So you're saying i have to delete parts of my LUA? I'm sure it's not a problem with my LUA because i didn't even touch the GCW one and AI don't show up in GCW. And yeah, what do you mean by commenting?

ahhh. ok, but i still don't see how Zerted's method is supposed to work. Ok, I start the map. It doesn't crash *whew* And then there are 2 cps. One rep, one CIS, or one imp or one reb (for GCW) I can spawn from one of the cps

I spawn, I look around the battlefield, find no AI units.

That's the problem I'm trying to figure out. So, what would Zerted's method do to help toward finding a way to make the AI appear on the map?
