I'm sure there's a forum about this already but does anybody have a list of the units and heroes etc
for LUA
ex: ep3_rep_rifleman
thanks

Character Spawn list:
Republic CIS Rebel Imperial

Hero/Jedi

Other

Ace, if i want to change the hero on the map, do i just add that name into my LUA?
And delete the other one?

ok I replaced the jettrooper with jed_knight_01-04 and it won't show up it just deletes the jettrooper
what's the problem
and it did the same thing when i switched maul with grievous (again) what's the problem?

thanks

Post your LUA, EGG_GUTS, and I'll show you how to do it.

I switched it around some more i switched the SBDs to marienes and the snipers to genosions and the jedi master to the jettrtooper ep2 eliminated the droieka and made grievous the cis hero well here it is...

SetupTeams{
rep = {
team = REP,
units = 20,
reinforcements = 150,
soldier = { "rep_inf_ep3_rifleman",9, 25},
assault = { "rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer",1, 4},
engineer = { "rep_inf_ep3_engineer",1, 4},
sniper = { "rep_inf_ep3_sniper",1, 4},
officer = {"rep_inf_ep3_officer",1, 4},
special = { "rep_inf_ep2_jettrooper",1, 4},

},
cis = {
team = CIS,
units = 20,
reinforcements = 150,
soldier = { "cis_inf_marine",9, 25},
assault = { "cis_inf_rocketeer",1, 4},
engineer = { "cis_inf_engineer",1, 4},
sniper = { "geo_inf_geonosian",1, 4},
officer = {"cis_inf_officer",1, 4},
special = { "",1, 4},
}
}

SetHeroClass(CIS, "cis_hero_grievous")
SetHeroClass(REP, "rep_hero_anakin")



thanks

delete the special ={...... line, it is uneccessary

no the droieka is gone here are the problems

-instead of grievous for a hero there is no hero for cis
-marine droid geonosian and ep2 jettrooper won't show up

that's it

thanks again

have you loaded the units from their side lvl?

That's the problem.
Your code there looks fine, but you have to put in the readdatafile bit (which I'm too busy to go look up now.)

make it like this: (I'm typing it from scratch not copying it so there might be a mistake)

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl",
"rep......whatever"
WHEN YOU GET TO THIS LINE
|
"rep_hero_anakin")
THEN ADD A COMMA AND THE CORRECT ENTRY SO IT LOOKS LIKE THIS
|
"rep_hero_anakin",
"rep_inf_ep2_jettrooper")

and do that same thing for the geonosian and marine droid (under the ReadDataFile("SIDE\\cis".lvl,

Just to clarify the character list, it is actually:
jed_knight_01
jed_knight_02
jed_knight_03
jed_knight_04

not "jed_knight_01-04"

Yes

no I didn't but do i get them from C :/BF2_Modtools/assets/sides

and where do I put them?

post the whole lua

well there it is

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\cis.lvl",
"cis_inf_rifleman",
"cis_inf_rocketeer",
"cis_inf_engineer",
"cis_inf_sniper",
"cis_inf_officer",
"cis_inf_droideka",
"cis_hero_darthmaul",
"cis_hover_aat")

Change that to line to: "cis_hero_grievous", Everything else seems to be in order though. Happy Modding!

Would i have to change

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl",
"rep_inf_ep3_rifleman",
"rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer",
"rep_inf_ep3_engineer",
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper",
"rep_inf_ep3_officer",
"rep_inf_ep3_jettrooper", to rep_inf_ep2_jettrooper
"rep_hover_fightertank",
"rep_hero_anakin",
"rep_hover_barcspeeder")
ReadDataFile("SIDE\\cis.lvl",
"cis_inf_rifleman", to cis_inf_marine
"cis_inf_rocketeer",
"cis_inf_engineer",
"cis_inf_sniper", to geo_inf_geonosian
"cis_inf_officer",
"cis_inf_droideka",
"cis_hero_darthmaul",
"cis_hover_aat")

geo_inf_geonosian would need to be loaded from geo.lvl

Ok where would I get geo.lvl

and i still have these problems:
my cis marine won't show up

problems I've fixed (thanks to you guys):
Droieka gone
Grievous works now
ep2 jettrooper works now

thanks

EDIT: Ok i fixed the marines (typing problem)
well here's another question for a hero like cis_hero_jangofett would you switch it with say SBDs to play with him with out getting certain amount of points

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\geo.lvl",
"geo_inf_geonosian")
