Missing CPs and weapon geometries. [Solved]

I swapped a weapon's geometry and set the ambient lighting in my map to be lower. Now, when munging, I get this mungelog message:

Code: Select all

ERROR[levelpack ARI.req]:Expecting bracket, but none was found.
File : munged\pc\ari_conquest.lvl.req(1)...

Also, in the unit selection screen, the weapon's geometry refuses to show up (he's holding air) even though I have the weapon munged and referenced properly.

Try a manual clean if you haven't already. I don't know about the weapon, but I doubt it's related to the errors you posted.

Ah, a manul clean fixed the CP errors and the mungelog errors. The weapon still doesn't show up, though. What could be the issue there? Too many polygons?

Well, I solved this by naming the mesh to something else.

The weapon's ODF used to call for ter_weap_longbarrel.msh. Then, I removed the longbarrel mesh from the msh folder of the side, and put in a new mesh, ter_weap_sniper.msh. I had then referenced ter_weap_sniper instead of ter_weap_longbarrel in the ODF, munged it, and in the error log it said "Cannot find weapon geometry 'ter_weap_longbarrel'."

I renamed ter_weap_sniper to ter_weap_longbarrel, and it all works out fine. So for whatever reason, I was unable to change an ODF property. :?

It's fixed now, but I never knew what was quite wrong with it in the first place.
