Re: Some help with modding
about moving the rep folder, do you mean moving it to the sides folder, or merging it with my custom side's folder?

Re: Some help with modding
Actualy, the three letter initial of a unit doesn't need to match the name of the side, I have a unit called cis_hero_jangofett in the man side folder and it works.Par3210 wrote:WAIT! Remebmer that the 3 letter side name MUST match your troops (E.g. if you named it org and you had a troop called ORG_inf_supertrooper it would not work, you'd have to have it as org_inf_supertrooper.)
And OK, let's hope that it works

Re: Some help with modding
ok i made a new map for testing characters and copied my side folder over and everything and put the REP side in there, and also put a skin in the rep side. nothing worked, but it did load the level and everything.

Re: Some help with modding
You are munging too much. Do a full, manual clean (read the FAQ). When you munge, you at most need to only select Common. If you need to munge a side, you select the side. If you are making shell changes (which you aren't), then you only select the shell. If you're making sound changes, etc... If you don't even change anything in the Common folder, then you don't even need to check Common.

Re: Some help with modding
You can still manual clean. If a folder is not there when you go to manual clean, just go on to the next folder in the instructions.
As for your BFront2.log, how are you having problems? Did you look and follow the fourth question in the link provided to you?
