Hi! I'm trying to add a M16 to my unit. Although I don't know how to do it. Please could someone tell me how/direct me to a topic? Yes I know how to set up custom sides, I just don't know how to make the M16 a unit's weapon.
Thanks a lot.

hello sir, well what do you like create a new odf for that weapon or only change the model of an existent weapon for example rep_weap_inf_rifle or whatever

well it says it includes odfs but I don't know how to set them up to add them to a character.
And also my new skin won't appear ingame as well.

well so begin:
for only change the weapon model for example you use the republic rifle so modify the next files:

rep_weap_inf_rifle.odf i suggest you make the same with his AWARD weapon:
rep_weap_award_rifle.odf understood??

and for the Skin, well is skin for weapon or unit? in case of for model, you want overload with the original or add it as new unit??

thanks for the odf, and yes I want to overload it.

oks so change your new skin.tga name to the same name have the original texture (for overload it), for example you want overload the rep_inf_ep3trooper.tga so your skin must to be rep_inf_ep3trooper.tga paste it in the same location for overload the old skin

i thought i saw OverloadTexture"" in a odf file.. ok. But if I do that the old skin will be lost. Copied over. So what can I do?

well if your new skin use rep_inf_trooper.msh so yes you can use the override_texture line in your odf, i needed you say me if the new skin is for that model, so i say you if is possible add that line

ok thank you very much
So to get things straight I need to add Override_Texture"" to my odf? or is it something else.

you are welcome , yeah if you use rep_inf_trooper.msh model so this is your unit's odf setting:
Par3210_soldier.odf

thank you! Just one more question - when I make a change to the weapons section of the odf and munge it none of the changes appear ingame - it makes my unit crash the game! Why? Please help!
Thanks
