Note: I searched and read thread after thread.*
1. I was reading a thread and it told me that to add a weapon I had to open the soldier's odf file and change his code to what weapon I wanted him to have, the only problem is when I open(lets say scout trooper) the odf I don't see the section for his weapons.So basically I am asking is what am I doing wrong.

2. When I put a custom model in the "all" folder in Sides and put "AddUnitClass" I get "0 errors, 2 warnings" telling me there is no collision geometry and it will be SLOW. When I launch my map, nothing is different. So instead of adding a class how can I replace the standard rebel model with a custom one?

Have you read this?

If you did:
1. what was the name of the scout's odf?? there are default odf files that contains mostly the weapon names. so for example there is an odf file called rep_inf_ep2_sniper.odf. the default odf (ClassParent) is named rep_inf_default_sniper. There are the weapon names.
2. You can ignore the warning it says that an msh has no collision, so the munge bats need to build it. That's why the munge process takes a little longer. to tell you why the side is not ingame we need to see your lua file.

1. Never mind for the weapons. Thank you I was looking at the wrong one.
2. My .lua

The "flametrooper" is the unit I wanted to add. His model and texture is in the all folder too.

please put the code between the code tags, and add hide tags around it.

You forgot this from the tutorial:

Okay I guess I missed that. But I am not adding a side, I am just adding a class.

You are adding a custom unit that needs to be loaded from a custom all.lvl side file, yes? If so, then you need to do what Anakin pointed out.

I thought it says "pms.lvl" so would I, instead of labeling it as a custom side, I would just put all.lvl?

Yes, you would. It was only an example. You would also replace pms_inf_supr_tropr with all_inf_rebel_flametrooper, the name of you custom unit.

Yes okay thank you.

This is my .lua for the all.lvl:

That's still incorrect. You need to add the "dc:" to SIDE\\all.lvl.

Okay tried that munging now.
edit: still not working.
double edit: Now my Clone Wars era crashes after I changed the weapons

Generate a log using the debug exe. Post all Message Severity: 3 Errors you find in there.

They are all Message Severity 2. Here take a look for yourself: Edit: I know the problem now. Hunpeter you helped me on my other thread so again, thank you.

Double edit: Now I cannot find the msh and tga for the timbomb and incinerator. But I cannot trouble you with anymore of my problems.

1. use search functions to find all message severity: 3:
2. please use hide tags if you post something long

Okay sorry, should have thought of that. I will fix it(edit: it won't hide). Last question,(I successfully fixed everything) how do I get the sounds for the incinerator and the all_inf_rifle?

if you used an gcw weapon and if you are playing an gcw map and you have load the gcw map's soundfile. it should work. So what's the name of the weapons fire sound and we need the whole lua file

It's actually gcw weapons to cw weapons. But I don't know where the sound file is or the lua file.

Ok. But you know that you already posted a part of your lua file? All we need is the full file (please between hide and code tags)
the sound file is called in your weapon's odf file there need to be a line called firesound. If there is no search in the base class (you know the ClassParent line tolds you what the base class is called)

Okay, I am kind of lost. My lua from earlier in the thread was about adding a class, not changing a weapon. But the odf does say this:

Looks good so far. your lua should look like that: This is the special line it need to be gcw. not cw. if you have something like that in your lua everything is ok. (i think you made a tat map, so it should be something like
