This might be a recurrent problem but the search function is too vague sometimes, this is the problem, I am making a lot of variants using the Clone Commander (Galactic Marine) model, and Devis clone officer model as well; just know I hex edited the new textures for the snow trooper in the marine model and renamed it (sno_inf_clonecommander.msh) to avoid any conflict.

But the cape doesn't show up, the first time around I just hex edited textures on the MSH, and the chracter had Devis Officer's cape texture clearly having some conflicts, I tried replacing all instances of REP in the MSH with SNO, but this time there is no cape at all, the ODFs are correct as far as I can tell, is there anything I am missing?

Unit ODF Cloth ODF I hope someone can help me figure out...

The clothodf name must be exactly the same as the cape chunk, so rep_inf_clonecommander_cape (I guess)

And you can rename it ofcourse, keeping the same amount of digits it the easiest way. So check the MODL name of the cape you've hexed in

Thanks, it worked, the model chunk was already there, and I renamed it since it was conflicting with Devis's model, but now even while hex-renamed it works, these kind of things are small details one tends to forget or never check...
