Um I really don't know I did what it said and nothing?
here this is what I did steps form, my map name is AHZ
step 1: Copy the race alliance(all) pasted it in the sides of AHZ
step 2: Went to BF2_MODTOOLS/assets/shell copied all the folders except the
.req and pasted in BF2_MODTOOLS/DATA_AHZ/_BUILD/shell
step 3 : Went Common/scripts/AHZ/AHZ_gcon.lua(BAK file) and changed
("SIDE\\rep.lvl", to ("dc:SIDE\\rep.lvl ,
step 4: Went to DATA_AHZ/_BUILD and copied clean.bat and munge.bat and pasted them in DATA_AHZ/Sides/all(alliance)
step 5: Munged!
all I did was another skin for Han Solo
other folders in my sides folder are geo, rep, cis, Common and tur
So does anybody see what the problem is?

so... what you're saying is that you didn't modify his skin under Sides>all?
So what's with the rest of the stuffs? It shouldn't be neccessary to do anything else than copy/paste the all folder and insert under Sides, and then modify the .tga you wanna do and clean/munge.
At least on a basic level.

You are trying to modify the Alliance Side and you are modify the Republic Side on the Galactic Civil...
Be sure that you are modify the Alliance, so you must change ("SIDE\\all.lvl" to ("dc:SIDE\\all.lvl...

Ok you have overwrite the original .TGA of Han Solo for you custom .TGA...
Because if you don't overwrite it, your skin never will appear...
If you have make it right, may be you aren't modify the Side.
