Changing the default hero (Solved)

elfie · Post by **elfie** » Fri Jan 25, 2008 8:32 pm

Hey guys. I am fairly new to modding and gametoast and I know this must sound like a stupid question, but is there a trick to changing the hero? Everytime i try to change the hero on my map it crashes. I didn't get the exact message from BF2Log but it said something like there was an error with the lua. So if anyone has any experience with changing the hero i would appreciate it tons. Thank you!

In the .lua, you must go to the hero set part, and in team layout with what people you can play as, put the hero there too..
The hero odf name must be put in i think.

If you post your lua, we might be able to see where you went wrong.

Just on a sidenote, put it in

Code: Select all

[code]Insert .lua here

[/code]tags. And isn't there a topic on this in the Evrything You Need thread?

EDIT:
My bad. It was a Hero/Unit list.
