Well, I'm positive i've set it up right, sides and all. The problem i have is when i move my file, say imp.lvl for example, to the side folder. In game the dark trooper isn't selectable, but my storm commando isn't either, just an empty space. What have i done wrong?

I am curious to find out the answer to this one because I can't get my imp scout to show up (You can only choose from 4 classes).

Astute,

I don't mean to hijack your thread, but it seems we are having the same problem.

Here is what I get from sptest:

Message Severity: 2
.\source\Team.cpp(531)
Team missing class "imp_inf_pilotatst" (check the side's .req file)

Message Severity: 2
.\source\Team.cpp(531)
Team missing class "ewk_inf" (check the side's .req file)

Now I have found the ewk.req file in my sides folder, but I haven't found the all.req or imp.req. I was under the impression that it wasn't necessary to add the all and imp to the sides folder because it would be a duplication and increase the munged folder size. Is the fix as simple as adding the appropriate sides folder?

Jetsi

You have to add them into the CW or GCW lua, don't forget, as well as the req files. Just take a gander at the files. You'll see what I mean.

And BTW, it's much easier and provides a smaller download if you just create a new side. You can still make it show up on your IMP side in-game.

Hmm, ok this is the only error i'm getting.

Message Severity: 2
.\source\Team.cpp(531)
Team missing class "imp_inf_dark_trooper" (check the side's .req file)

It seems to still be looking for the dark trooper even though i've deleted him from the imp.lvl req file.

ur lua?

OK, I'm starting to get frustrated.

Astute, sorry to hijack your thread, but I don't think we need two of these threads runnin around. Hopefully if I get an answer you can also.

So, here is my GCW .lua file (some extraneous sound stuff removed):

And here is my imp.req file:

ucft
{
REQN
{
"lvl"
"imp_fly_destroyer_dome"
"imp_fly_tiebomber"
"imp_fly_tiefighter"
"imp_fly_trooptrans"
"imp_hover_fightertank"
"imp_hover_speederbike"
"imp_inf_basic"
"imp_inf_basicsnow"
"imp_inf_basic_tie"
"imp_inf_dark_trooper"
"imp_inf_dark_troopersnow"
"imp_inf_pilot_atst"
"imp_walk_atat"
"imp_walk_atst"
"imp_walk_atst_jungle"
"imp_walk_atst_snow"
"imp_droid_probe"
}
}

So, I mislabelled in my first post. I only show 4 classes on the Imperial side, and the choice for pilot is missing. I see where others can get 6 or more choices (whether they play or not is a different story), but I can only get 4. I have also tried putting in the Tie pilot and the ATAT pilot, but they still don't show. So I believe the problem is somewhere else. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\imp.lvl",
"imp_inf_basic_tie",
"imp_inf_dark_trooper",
"imp_inf_pilotatst",
"imp_walk_atst_jungle",
"imp_hover_speederbike");

You should have replaced "imp_inf_basic_tie" by "imp_inf_basic"...

Did a search of all .req files, and found a bunch.

Realized that in the .lua it was not adding individual classes, but that was a batch add to the classes. So I have already made the change there, but still nothing. Just a choice of 4 classes.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Ok, nothing is working, i still end up with no dark trooper/storm commando, just an empty slot. Here are my files.

>>EDIT:My bfront.log is in a previous post above.

This works on my modded maps, but when the new imp.lvl file is added it just doesn't work.

Anything from BFront.log?

Ack, I've tried everything i can think of. Renaming, Rearranging, even trying to pass the storm commando off as a dark trooper, nothing is working

is this replacing the original sides for all levels? or just one map?

this is a replacement for all levels

Maybe you are doing too much? Weird, nothing seems wrong in your log.

Astute, could you sum up what you'd like to do, please ? (I might have an idea to make this project working...)

for now, i would just like my storm commando in place of the dark trooper on all shipped levels.

EDIT: The REQ name is imp_inf_storm_commando

What's the name of your Storm Commando's *.REQ file ?

Astute, you can easily just change the req file of the storm commando to the name of the darktrooper = ="

But he's probably perfectionist, and wants to erase any track of the Dark Trooper in "imp.lvl" and "mission.lvl"...
