Please explain what you are trying to do. Are you trying to edit the weapon model? Or editing weapon values: Fire color, damage, range..

yes welcome to gametoast :yes:
if you want to edit the acutal weapons: you have to edit them in xsi (see xsi faq topics)
if you want to edit the weapons definition vaules: open up the odfs and edit those
hope this clarifies abit'

I would recommend looking at the stock documentation, especially Getting Started.doc, although it can be somewhat confusing at times.

if by sock you mean stock, i would think you need XSI to attach a jet pack to the trooper but if you want it to fly add the fly lines in the trooper's odf
Hidden/Spoiler:
[code]UnitType = "trooper"

AISizeType = "HOVER"

ControlSpeed = "jet 1.50 1.25 1.25"

JetJump = "10.0" //7 //The initial jump-push given when enabling the jet
JetPush = "16.0" //The constant push given while the jet is enabled (20 is gravity)
JetAcceleration = "60.0" //Acceleration while hovering.
JetEffect = "rep_sfx_jetpack"
JetType = "hover"
JetFuelRechargeRate = "1.0" //Additional fuel per second (fuel is 0 to 1)
JetFuelCost = "0.0" //Cost per second when hovering (only used for jet-hovers)(fuel is 0 to 1)
JetFuelInitialCost = "0.0" //initial cost when jet jumping(fuel is 0 to 1)
JetFuelMinBorder = "0.0" //minimum fuel to perform a jet jump(fuel is 0 to 1)[/code]
that is the fly/jet effect/control lines of the republic jet trooper that has been modded for infinate fuel you can change the values as needed.

that is only the jet effect and the flight ablity but you would need some other method (like XSI) to add the jet pack itself.

some one correct me if i am wrong.

You have to make a custom side first, to put in your map.
