Side's crashing on Hoth

For a little mod by me, I've edited the textures of the rebel trooper and the stormtrooper. First I've made the reb side, and it works great. But if I changed the textures of the stormtrooper, it's always crashing, but only on hoth(?). I think, there is nothing special with this map? Then I've tried to munge the imp side without changes, but it also crashed. What can I do?

Thanks ;)

I'm not intimately familiar with SWBF1, but it's been mentioned a few times before that there is an error loading the stock Imperial side (munged from the modtools) due to the fact that the game tries to load a probe droid unit which does not exist in the modtools .req.

See here for further description:

I am sure a more thorough search would turn up more, too.

This can be fixed one of three ways.

One, you can create a dummy "imp_probe_droid" ODF in the SIDES/IMP/ODF folder (the .REQ is already in the REQ folder and it's already referenced in the Side's REQ file if I'm not mistaken)

Two, create a fully-working Imperial probe Droid. The model assets are there, it'd just require ODF scripting, but I'm assuming that you may be a beginner, or unwilling to create the Probe Droid.

Three, erase this from the hot1i.lua file and remunge the mission.lvl (can be done with battleBelk's Mission.lvl tool)

Code: Select all

--  Local Stats
    SetTeamName(3, "Local")
    AddUnitClass(4, "imp_droid_probe", 1);
    SetUnitCount(4, 1)
    SetTeamAsEnemy(3,DEF)
    SetTeamAsFriend(3,ATT)

BattleBelk has made a fixed IMP side munge tool that contains this fix, full with right model etc. Can be found on his FileFront Page.

So first, thanks to all ;)

I try something, and I think on BattleBelk's filefront page is nothing like that? I can't find it. Maybe it's deleted.
