so i'm trying to add gamorreans to my map as locals...when i type it into the LUA, its all fine and dandy...they show up in the map, they attack, everything's perfect

ok so now i'm trying to edit the gamorreans, so i want to include them in my side...and when i do that there is no Munging error or anything, they just don't appear in game. at all.

here is my LUA thingy (actually its only the part that i edited):

i'm pretty sure i included all the necessary .odfs and .mshs in my side (there aren't very many), so i really don't know what's wrong...i probably just made some stupid mistake, but plz help

AddUnitClass (3, "gam_inf_gamorreanguard", 10,15)
SetUnitCount (3, 15)

Set that to 15, not ten. I had the same issue once, and that fixed it. You only need the one number, not the two.

thanks for the tip, but unfortunately that didn't work...the gamorreans still don't appear




SetTeamName (3,"piggies")
AddUnitClass (3, "gam_inf_gamorreanguard", 15)

this is what i changed it to...i just deleted the "10," but no good

anybody else know what the problem is? (thanks in advance)

And thats whats crashing it.

Because you deleted the ten.
You must have a lower number for it to refrence.
In this case, any number less then 15.

Check for your BMT side in the sides directory the addon folder for your map make sure it is there. If you put and unmodified gamorrean in you side folder then clean and remunge the side does it work then?

i know my sides directory is there because i have another unit from my sides that works fine...

the gamorrean is unmodified, and i've already cleaned and remunged...i will try again but i doubt it will make a difference

I was asking if it was unmodified because of this:

so i'm trying to add gamorreans to my map as locals...when i type it into the LUA, its all fine and dandy...they show up in the map, they attack, everything's perfect

ok so now i'm trying to edit the gamorreans, so i want to include them in my side...and when i do that there is no Munging error or anything, they just don't appear in game. at all.

When they did work were they called from bmt side? Did you add gam_inf_gamorreanguard to your sides .req folder? I've missed that one before

thanks very much FragMe, i completely, totally, and utterly forgot about the REQ

UNFORTUNATELY, the gamorreans still don't work...lol
when i cleaned and remunged, however, i did get some unhelpful warning messages that might be helpful to other people:




WARNING[PC_modelmunge msh\gam_inf_gamorreanguard.msh]:SplitSkinnedSegments: WARNING: out of space in splitting catalog!

WARNING[PC_modelmunge msh\gam_inf_gamorreanguard.msh]:gam_inf_gamorreanguard has 1731 vertices and NO COLLISION GEOMETRY (WILL BE SLOW)!

does anybody know what these things mean? if not, should i try a manual clean?

You can ignore those warnings; in fact, almost any munging warnings (not errors) can be ignored.

okay...then what am i doing wrong

would the BF2_log help any? it usualy helps with some things

nvrm guys, i figured it out (thank god)...i rememberd the gamorreans individual REQ file, but i forgot to put "gam_inf_gamorreanguard" in the sides REQ file

thanks for the help anyways
