Same thing for the selection screen.
Can I use the addme lua for any map where I want my Black Sun side?
Is it possible to have dc: 2 times?
example:dc:SIDE\\all and dc:SIDE\imp

You can add more than one map in a single addme.lua.

As many times as you want/need. It's done all the time.

Yes he is. I know a lot, but I wouldn't call myself "experienced" just yet.

Thank you to both of you!

I got one more thing to ask, then I am good to go with creating Battlefront 4 =).
I know this is explained in a tutorial here:http://www.gametoast.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=12729
but when ever I add a new unit to the standart ones the all of the other units are messed up.

What I am trying to ask is ,is there a tutorial or does anyone know how it was done in BFX?
I created the jedi order side with and replaced the standart ones with my ones but I want to add more.
I want to add them in a logical order but whenever I do that all other units are messed up and game
is crashing.

If you need more information just ask=)

Did you do this?
Hidden/Spoiler:
[code]Now if you could replace one of the normal unit’s with yours, but I’ll teach you how to add a new one, incase you don’t want to replace anyone, and hurt a trooper's feelings.

Under the SetHeroClass part, add this:

AddUnitClass(IMP, "pms_inf_supr_troopr",1,4)

This will add your unit under the Imperial side’s line up.

So now you’ve got this:

Good? Good.

Yep I did that and I fixed it myself.
I found a different way which works perfectly fine.
Thank you for your helping though.
