Hey there,

I'm trying (for the first time... ) to add a new era to some/all stocks maps following this tutorial: http://www.gametoast.com/viewtopic.php? ... 96#p287596 (I want to add a new era to the Felucia map).

So first question, do I have to use the files of Zerted's 1.3 patch r117 (lite version as Sky_216 said)? I don't think so...but I'm not sure normally I can just copy the stocks scripts I need, directly from the 'assets' folder no?

After that I followed step 2 and 3 sucessfuly.

But I'm stuck with step 6:

6) Go to your 'mission'.req file (in the 'common' folder in your map) and edit the script files it says. It should have something along the lines of 'XXXc_con', 'XXXg_con' (where XXX is your maps three letter id). Add the name of the script you modified. So if you added era 'a' to mygeeto conquest, add 'myg1a_con' to your mission req.

WHY he is talking about "era a"??? He didn't speak about that before: (the little I know about this is that each era mod have his own letter...but correct me if i'm wrong)

So if you added era 'a' to mygeeto conquest, add 'myg1a_con' to your mission req.

What I've done:


I've understood step 7 because it's the same process for just adding units...etc

According to step 8 I've changed my addme lua:


and now when I want to munge i got this:



I checked my felucia script and I found the "unexpected symbol" near '(' I corrected it.

But I can't find a solution for the 2 next errors! The game can't even start!

Thanks for the help GT

1. Yes, you will need the 1.3 patch to get custom era mods to work properly.

2. The 'unexpected symbol' error produces the next two errors. If you have fixed the 'unexpected symbol', try munging again. If you still get the errors after that, try cleaning. If you STILL get the errors, post your 'addme.lua', and your 'mission.req'. Then we will see.

Hope this helps,
Sam

You can use the asset scripts. But you need the 1.3 patch installed.
The a is an example for the era code. You remember my thread, where I asked for used codes??
Your c is a bad choose, since it is stock clone wars.

Your unexpected symbol seams to be the * as an era code in your addme.

And you'll need the addme from the 1.3 files.

Yes, of course I have the lastest version of the 1.3 patch (r129) in order to play a lot of mods...

You can use the asset scripts.

Thanks that's what I want to know, I can't find the files located with the patch... :s

Yes, I remember your post...In ths case I'll use the letter 'U' for Ultimate Republic. But the reason why I didn't modified the stock name of the script is because I don't know when Sky_216 did that in his tutorial....Between step 5 and 6 maybe?

Hum, in this case I should replace the * by the letter 'u'...ok

Thanks Samee3 & Anakin

Someone know what letter Xavious used for his own mod 'Ultimate battlefront'? Unfortunately I think he used the letter 'u' no?
