Hi,

I only wanted to change the unit's weapons, and add some units to the rep side, i don't have a mungelog, but when i try to munge with dc:Side, the map loady, but before i can choose a side, the game crashes. i'll post now:

my ABCc_con.lua: and the units i've changed: the rail arc trooper:
and the officer:
maybe you need also my setup_teams.lua...
thank you for answers,

CommanderGreg

PS.: Ive used the search function and the FAQ thread but i didn't find anything
PPS.: Which function has Label = "Arc Trooper"?
PPPS.: I hope you'll understand my broken enlgish, i'm sorry but yes i'm austrian, and i'm not the best in foreign languages, especially english ...

did you change
this to this and did you add the common folder stuff and the stuff you changed to the rep side folder and put them in the req?

you talked about a dc: side, but i can´t see it, is this your lua how i is now?
have a look on this fixed rep side entry: are the units you add referenced as req in your side folder?
did you add the "common" folder?
it would be helpful if you can post youor BF2.log, the error log

edit: acryptozoo was a minute faster

oh sorry, yes of course i have the dc: in front of "Side". With dc, the game crashes and without, the units don't have any weapon changes...

and yes i've all the stuff with common and so on...

do have any sev 3 errors on your error log?

do i get the error log with the "modtestversion" of SWBFII?... i'm not sure with the error log, my last modding activitie was about 3 or 4 months ago...

the FAQ wrote:Answer - The BF2_modtools.exe is the debug executable, copy it from C:\BF2_ModTools and paste it in the same folder as your BattlefrontII.exe, usually:
C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData
you can launch BF2_modtools.exe and play your map then exit or let it crash to generate a BFront2.log located in that same folder.

Ok, heres my error log, and yes i have som message severity 3 messages ...
Ive hidden all message severity 2 inside... hope i have not hidden too much.

Thank you very much

In the file rep_inf_ep2_rocketeer_chaingun, you need to get rid of lines

Search the LUA for the line "SetUbermode" and get rid of it.

well you dont have to get rid of it, it should be
setubermode(1) if im not mistaken

arctrooper ok...pd not dc:....(dc:) is modified soldier
my lua ejem:

What's the problem?

CommanderGreg pictures please

if you have problems with vehicles spawn

see my tutorial http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2624I832

this tutorial is of sound and cps spawn vehicles

those errors dont always cause the vehicle not to spawn ... it get them all the time and my vehicles work fine

Ok thank you to all who have helped me... especially acryptozoo The map now works fine, the two errors were two typing mistakes, it has to be SetUberMod(1)... Ok I now have two other questions: How can I rename Units or Weapons; and does anybody know a "How to make new weapons tutorial" (- i didn't found anything in the FAQ)?
Again Thank you very much

CommanderGreg

PS.: I don't have any problems with the republic vehicles, i mean e.g. the At-Te or the Gunship, but my map doesn't spawn CIS Vehicles, like the "cis_fly_droidfighter_sc" or the "cis_fly_droidgunship", and I did the same stuff as i did with the rep vehicles... but anyway the map doesn't crash any more, thank you again...(already the 3rd time )

to change their names you have to edit them in the editlocalize tool
and to change the properties of a weapon you edit its odfs
to make a new one you need to model it in XSI or another program
