My additional units won't appear in my map [Solved]
I've been trying to import the new revan and malak for a while now with no success. Also, I can't seem to import ewoks or wookies, and other custom characters. The game just loads with a an empty slot where each character should be. Any thoughts?

Re: characters
i know nothing of LUAs and that stuff, but, I think revan might not show up 'cuz it says "sit_hero_revan". I see no side called "sit"

Re: characters
it doesn't have anything to do with the sit I don't think. For instance the dth_sith_shrike, there is no folder dth. But it's not just Revan, the wookie won't spawn either.

Re: characters

Re: characters
Yes, I have done all that, but I don't have to make one for the wookie who isn't showing up. Correct?

Re: characters
See how the revan side and the wookie side are on each other. well it might look like that but they are really one big line. so put a bunch of spaces at the end of revan's side or push enter for a new line.

Re: characters
Did you add them to the .req? That could be the problem. It was for me.

Re: characters
I found a typo in revan's req. However, in the wookie req I found wok_inf_basic.req, which had wok_inf_warrior in it,so I wasn't sure if wok_inf_basic is what I needed in my lua instead or if I should create a seperate req for the warrior. I created the req for the warrior because I couldn't decide between the two. Currently it is munging, so I'll post feedback when it is done.
Edit:
Munge finished and Revan works. The wookie still doesn't. Should I enter in wok_inf_basic into my lua instead?

Re: characters
wok_inf_basic didn't work. Does anyone know how to get a wookie in their map?

Re: characters
wok_inf_basic is the req name that loads 3 wookie classes.
So you would load the wookies with wok_inf_basic in the ReadDataFile section of your LUA
ReadDataFile("SIDE\\wok.lvl",
"wok_inf_basic")
then list what classes you want for your team in the SetupTeams section of your LUA, which would be:
Example:
assault = { "wok_inf_mechanic",1, 7},
engineer = { "wok_inf_rocketeer",1, 5},
sniper = { "wok_inf_warrior",1, 4},
