Adding New Units [Solved]

adrenalinshake · Post by **adrenalinshake** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 10:35 am

Could anyone show me a LUA with new units in it please?
Because I can't make new units work.
I had a working map but when i tried to put in a clone commander from the BF1 1.75 patch ( ihave it correctly installed) and munged it.
And when I try to run it in Clone wars (Galactic Civil War works fine) it freezez and sez:
FATAL:
Clould not open MISSION\JABc_con.lvl

Here's something that pops up after mungeing:
C:\BF2_ModTools\ToolsFL\Bin\luac.exe: ..\..\common\scripts\JAB\JABc_con.lua:82: `)' expected (to close `(' at line 74) near `"rep_hover_fightertank"'

C:\BF2_ModTools\ToolsFL\Bin\luac.exe: ..\..\common\scripts\JAB\JABc_con.lua:82: `)' expected (to close `(' at line 74) near `"rep_hover_fightertank"'

That means you have something wrong with your lua.

Change this:

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl",
"rep_inf_ep3_rifleman",
"rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer",
"rep_inf_ep3_engineer",
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper",
"rep_inf_ep3_officer",
"rep_inf_ep3_jettrooper",
"rep_inf_boss_commando"
"rep_hover_fightertank",
"rep_hero_anakin",
"rep_hover_barcspeeder")

to this:

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl",
"rep_inf_ep3_rifleman",
"rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer",
"rep_inf_ep3_engineer",
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper",
"rep_inf_ep3_officer",
"rep_inf_ep3_jettrooper",
"rep_inf_boss_commando",
"rep_hover_fightertank",
"rep_hero_anakin",
"rep_hover_barcspeeder")

You forgot to put a comma after "rep_inf_boss_commando", so it thought that was the end of the ReadDataFile.

Wait! Why are you loading "rep_inf_boss_commando" from the rep side? He is in SIDE\\infantry.lvl. (you have the conversion pack, right?)

Forget the first stuff and replace this:

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl",
"rep_inf_ep3_rifleman",
"rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer",
"rep_inf_ep3_engineer",
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper",
"rep_inf_ep3_officer",
"rep_inf_ep3_jettrooper",
"rep_inf_boss_commando"
"rep_hover_fightertank",
"rep_hero_anakin",
"rep_hover_barcspeeder")
ReadDataFile("SIDE\\cis.lvl",
"cis_inf_rifleman",
"cis_inf_rocketeer",
"cis_inf_engineer",
"cis_inf_sniper",
"cis_inf_officer",
"cis_inf_droideka",
"cis_hero_durge",
"cis_hover_aat")

with this:

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl",
"rep_inf_ep3_rifleman",
"rep_inf_ep3_rocketeer",
"rep_inf_ep3_engineer",
"rep_inf_ep3_sniper",
"rep_inf_ep3_officer",
"rep_inf_ep3_jettrooper",
"rep_hover_fightertank",
"rep_hero_anakin",
"rep_hover_barcspeeder")
ReadDataFile("SIDE\\cis.lvl",
"cis_inf_rifleman",
"cis_inf_rocketeer",
"cis_inf_engineer",
"cis_inf_sniper",
"cis_inf_officer",
"cis_inf_droideka",
"cis_hero_durge",
"cis_hover_aat")
ReadDataFile("SIDE\\infantry.lvl",
"rep_inf_boss_commando")

You also should look at This Topic for the Conversion Pack global side odf names, and what ReadDataFile's to put them under.

    SetHeroClass(CIS, "cis_hero_durge")

    SetHeroClass(REP, "rep_hero_anakin")

What did I do wrong?

Hebes24 · Post by **Hebes24** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 3:18 pm

put this line:

AddUnitClass(REP,"rep_inf_boss_commando", 1, 2)

Above the SetHeroClass lines.
