How to spawn vehicles from other sides

Post by Jawaraider »

I want the republic to use the CIS aat on my map.
I am modifying mygeeto so there are vehicle spawn points. I copied every
file related to the aat from the CIS to REP, odfs, mshs and req and added
the name in the rep.req thing. I write this in the LUA:
ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\rep.lvl",
"rep_inf_ep2_rifleman",
"rep_inf_ep2_rocketeer",
"rep_inf_ep3_rifleman",
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper",
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper_felucia",
"rep_inf_ep2_engineer",
"cis_hover_aat")
But it wont spawn. Is there any way to fix this WITHOUT using ZE cause it wont work on vista?
There is a place where you define the class of each unit,
soldier or assault and whatever, but nothing about tanks and such. Can anyone please help?

For one, you don't need to load it in the rep side. It's a huge waste of space to load it from the rep side when you can just load it from the cis side. Secondly, the only way you can set up vehicle spawns is in ZE. Plain and simple, if you can't use ZE, you can't do what you're talking about.

If ZE doesn't work, look through the forums to see what others have done. I know that for some it was just updated drivers, while for me, this topic worked.

Unless you get ZE to work with Vista, the only way I can think of to fix this without using ZE is to manually edit the myg1_CP-Conquest.lyr file or whichever gamemode layer you're editing. Open it up with notepad and you'll see the vehicle spawn info in it towards the bottom.
There you will be able to swap vehicles for teams or enter new vehicle names and do pretty much everything you can do in ZE after a vehicle spawn is placed.
