Look in the folder to see if a bfront2.log appears, as that's what we're after.

Cool, now we're cooking with gas! This is the log file we were talking about before. It's a debug log that helps you find the problem. In your case
Message Severity: 3
.\Source\LuaCallbacks_Mission.cpp(857)
Lua ReadDataFile: Could not open dc:SIDE\fst.lvl
Message Severity: 2
.\Source\Team.cpp(625)
Team missing class "fst_ep3cmd_cody" (check the side's .req file)
Are the problems specific to Cody. Severity: 3 messages usually crash the game, so the easiest way to find them is open it in notepad, hit CTRL+F, then type Severity: 3. It'll look for all of those.
Anyways, it can't find your side. Verify it's in /Star Wars Battlefront II/Gamedata/Addon/YOURMAPNAME/SIDE. If it's not there then the side never munged.
Glad to see you got the debug log working. As Obi-Wan would say "You've taken your first step into a larger world"

Ok, that's the problem. I dunno why, but the fst folder doesn't munge. So there's not on the my map lvl_pc/side folder. How can i fix that?

Have a look at the BF2 Jedi Creation doc, it explains the steps required for putting in a new side, as well as how to create a new Jedi but you don't have to worry about that part

But for getting a side going the steps are the same.

Well, i've added a fst folder with the munge archive in BUILD/SIDES and now the side file is in gamedata/lvlpc.... But the game crashes. The log is this
P.D: This is not all, here i've just put the message severity 3 things. because if i pu my complete log, it has more that the allowed words...
Thanks for all

Means there is no "rep_inf_trooper_low1.msh".
Copy the files rep_inf_trooper_low1.msh and rep_inf_trooper_low1.msh.option from this folder:
BF2_ModTools\assets\sides\rep\msh
to
BF2_ModTools\data_modID\Sides\fst\msh
Hope that helps
