I seem to have a thing with invisible objects...
Using the adding turrets tutorial, I placed and scripted two dish turrets. They appear in ZE, but not when munged and played. Since the turrets were already in the /sides/tur folder, i would think that all the ODFs, meshes, and textures would be there already. But apparently, something is amiss...

There are a small handful of turrets that never got munged into the original game, even though the files are there. Your best bet is to build a custom side, as the /TUR side won't be very big.

hmmm, i dont know if this helps, but whenever i want turrets, i just take the odf and msh folders out of the side file (copy them) and put them in with all of my other object files. they work just fine too.

@SamofBIA-I tried that, they appear in the game but when you try to use them it crashes.

@Teancum-No idea how to do that. I'll probably have to soon, though, so I might as well learn it now.
Edit: Nah, I'll wait until after I finish my map. I'll try to find a turret that works for now

hmmm you might also have to add them in your lua file. (under the thing that says:

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\tur.lvl",
"tur_bldg_laser",
"tur_bldg_tower")

I did that as part of the tutorial.

EDIT
I tried it again with the turret used in the tutorial and the same thing happened, and again it made the game crash if I try putting it in the world folder.

Edit: I might have scripted wrong. Which files ware you supposed to edit? I did ***c_con.lua and ***c_con.lua.bak.

Double posting is against the RULES, please EDIT your post instead -Staff

.bak files are just backups of the original lua and can be deleted.
If your editing Clone Wars Conquest then it's ***c_con.lua. Galactic Civil War would be ***g_con.lua.
It could also help when you post your Debuglog (Bfront2.log).

Yep, that did it. There was a typo in the tutorial which confused me
