Replacing SBD with B1?

Ok so I attempted making my own era/side mod with it, but I get these errors, and the map crashes with FATAL

How did you go about doing this? There is a great tutorial in the FAQ.

I followed the tutorial,
first I changed the mission.req like so:

        "WIPc_con"

        "myg1t_con"

You probably forgot this step.

If you've replaced the default CIS.lvl in the main data folder, do you need to use "dc:"? If you haven't replaced the default cis.lvl, then ignore my post.

If you are replacing the base data side levels, and you want to load them in your map or era, then you don't need the dc: Which, the dc stands for Downloadable Content. It was designed for DLCs, which were made for the Xbox. If you want to load the normal sides, then the dc: is unneeded.

darkling155 · Post by **darkling155** » Thu Mar 08, 2012 1:50 am

I did indeed change the CIS so I need dc

darkling155 wrote:thanks!!

So, how do I make the sides global? does that involve a lvl file?

Take the cis.lvl file from your custom side folder and put it in place of the cis.lvl file in the bf2 data\sides directory. (remember to back up the files you replace)

Alternately you could put it in your addon folder and edit the stock map luas with the dc function to reference you're custom cis.lvl instead of the stock one and replace the mission.lvl but this is slightly more complicated.
