how would i add sides, heros, or chars from parts of the game?

you just reference them in the modid(era: can be g or c).lua

how would i referince them? i already have some codes and tried to add a wookie and jedi runner but they didint show up ingame...

try using the search function here at gt also you need to call the units in your .lua


here

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\(3 letter name of side).lvl",
"unit_name_1",
"unit_name_2",
"unit_name_3")

also in order for them to appear in game you must add them here
under setup teams


soldier = { "unit_name_1",(number), (number)},

etc

i have follwed ed calebs tutorial and done everything but after putting him in the side unit area whjat do i do for -AddUnitClass? and how do i set hm up in setupteamss what number do i use to decide hwere he will show up?

ROFL!!! sry i forgot u just told me how to do setup teams...nvm about the team part (except for number)

The numbers state how many of that unit is on the battlefield at a given time. The first number is the minimum, the second is the maximum.

....uggg...now all i did was losse a unit

this is the Severity 3

(i was able to get this message by the help from theItfactor thx theItfactor!!!)

would this work?: go nto the assets/sides/rep. get the rep pilot odfs, msh,tga,req. place him in my ***/sides/tur-odfs,msh,req. and then add his name to the lua?
