You need to be a little more clear. Do you want to have the two teams facing each other on a custom map of yours be Republic vs Empire? (like that kamino campaign level)

Just swap out the CIS in the team setup section of your mission LUA (data_XXX/Common/scripts/XXX/***.lua) for the Empire.

SO just to make sure I understand it, The part of the script were it says cis_inf_rifleman i want to change it to imp_inf_rifleman and so on? Also i notice in the LUA it mentions something about a driodeka. Do I want to remove that or Leave it in there?

Code: Select all

ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\imp.lvl",
Are you using a custom Empire side or the stock one? Because if you're just using the stock one then you'll want to get rid of "dc:" in front of SIDE. Whenever it's used it tells the game to look for the .lvl file in your addon's directory instead of in the stock directory. So if you don't actually have a working custom imp side, the game is trying to find one in your addon's data/_lvl_pc/SIDE/ folder and can't find it.

If you are using a custom Empire side then there are a whole host of other possible problems that could be causing the crash. Did you copy the common side from the assets folder into your world's 'Sides' folder and select 'EVERYTHING' when munging your sides? Can you post your error log?
