No, GT went much faster when SWBF2 was new.

That isn't surprising, as this was completely new to everyone back then.

I used to have that problem. I fixed it by pasting the side in question into my side folder. That's why I suggested it.

Have you done what Zerted said (getting rid of the extra /)?

That's a poor way to go about fixing a problem, as it adds too much to the size of the side.

Why? That could be your problem. Check Gamedata\DATA\_LVL_PC\SIDE to make sure that jed.lvl is there and remove anything from your world's side folder.

That shouldn't matter.

@ Par3210 again
I'm assuming that your path is tied to your CP correctly. If so, then your ZE work looks fine.

OK, jed.lvl is there. I'll try removing it but I doubt it will do any good.

No No No, you don't understand. I said if it's in your world's side folder, then remove it. Leave it by all means in your game's side folder.

Sorry, but can you please post your error log again?

I can help you if you listen to me, and I understand if you misunderstand me, but under no circumstances should you ever remove anything that was installed with the game from your game's side folder (that is Gamedata\DATA\_LVL_PC\SIDE).

If there's no change from your last error log, it could be that you need to clean or manual clean. I'd at the very least delete your map from the addon folder before you munge again.

Yeah, you should do a manual clean. That has fixed some of my sides problems before.

*Off Topic* 73 posts?! Man, this topic is getting LONG. :runaway:

You shouldn't just give up. If you try to get something working, and can't, even if you decide not to use it in the future, it's good to still fix the problem for experience.

The idea of a topic being to long is ludicrous. The only problem occurs when people feel the need to point out how long it is and derail the topic. So long as no one does that (or should I say as long as they stop doing it), it shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks to everyone who helped me!
Don't give up. Like Fris said, even if you won't use them, you should still figure out how. We would rather help you than you give up. And the topic isn't too long. I wasn't trying to say that - just remarking on the number of posts, which means more people want to help, which is a good thing.

@ Fris - I wasn't trying to say anything bad about the topic. Sorry if it came across that way.

Once again the names got you. Have a look in the jed.req file for valid names of jedi units that you can call for in the lua.

Also even though the readdata things worked with //// you really should just use //

Woah, look, there is no such unit as jed_inf_jedi. The first in the req is jed_knight_01. Par, you need to change that.

It's not in jed.req in the assets, but when I checked the munged .lvl file itself, I found it in there.

EDIT: Nevermind, you're right. I just found the reference to the mesh, that's all.

@Par3210
It looks like these are your choices:

Code: Select all

        "jed_knight_01"
        "jed_knight_02"
        "jed_knight_03"
        "jed_knight_04"
        "jed_master_01"
        "jed_master_02"
        "jed_master_03"
        "jed_sith_01"
        "jed_runner"

That is just the name of the msh file it uses for all the jedi and for the sith it uses jed_inf_sith.msh :D
