hello there, im new to these forums and i would like to know if someone could help me?
Ok, as my first attempt to Mod BF2, i get all the assets (rep and common) and put it into my map's Sides folder(all I'm doing is a texture change here and there). then i change the LUA to the dc://sides thing and then im ready to munge.

i open up visual Munger in data_ABC/_BUILD and i check the common box, and choose REP as my SIDE to munge. then i click munge .At that point, i go to my addon folder and the map is there, but inside the _LVL_PC, there is no SIDES folder or my lvl file. and the weird thing is, in visual munger, i get this:

Munging addme.lua...done.
Copying files to Battlefront II directory:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData"
Addon dir exists, continuing...
Mod dir "ABC"exists, continuing...
Copying addme.script to mod dir...done
Copying "mission.lvl" to modDir\data\_LVL_PC\...done
Copying "core.lvl" to modDir\data\_LVL_PC\...done
Copying "ABC" to modDir\data\_LVL_PC\...done
Copying "SIDE" to modDir\data\_LVL_PC\...done
Munge process finished
\LucasArts\Star was unexpected at this time.

is this because i have WINDOWS 7?

Try this fix; its for vista but I think it will work for Windows 7

Did you follow all the steps for creating/modding a new side, including putting a directory in the side folder of the build directory, that is the usual cause of a side not showing up in the addon folder.

Try not to double post, it's against the rules. Do you know how to make a Bf2log?
