We can't explain anything better than the docs. Just work through it while you read, eventually it will click.

the "how to create a jedi" doc is actually possibly the worst Doc in the documentation, so this time it's actually understandable that you don't get it. Rancor made a better jedi creation guide, i'm tryin to find it, but the search is malfunctioning

His guide was just about creating combos. Just read through any of the unit creation guides, I think there are a couple now. And Jedi Creation isn't that bad, if you just sift through and make sure you take the time to read it all.

First copy your desired unit's assets into "data_ABC\sides\rep" where ABC is you modID and then you fiddle around with it until you achieve the desired result. Then go into data_ABC\common\scripts\ABC and open up ABCc_con and scroll down to where it sets up the teams ReadDataFile(REP, "SIDES\rep.lvl",
"rep_inf_trooper",
etc...
and simply replace "rep_inf_trooper" with "jed_knight_02" or whatever. Then scroll down abit to where it sets up the unit classes.
sniper = { "rep_inf_sniper",1, 4}, or whatever. (Couldn't think of anything else off the very very top of my head, so sniper it is)
Replace rep_inf_sniper with "jed_knight_02" and last but not least go back up to ReadDataFile(REP, "SIDES...blah blah blah and add dc: before SIDES like so:
ReadDataFile(REP, "dc:SIDES\rep.lvl", and I'm sure you get the picture.

Wow guys that took only like a minute to whip up.

EDIT: A bit obvious, but just so this is complete, go to data_ABC\_BUILD and run VisualMunge and for sides select rep or EVERYTHING if you haven't already munged common. Also make sure before you do that that you have already copied the common side into your sides folder as directed in the BF2 Jedi Creation.doc
