i changed corasants to have more units and munged but cant find the file i need to replace the default map file with and dont know where it would be. This is my first time modding luas so any help would be great cuz i know next to nothing about it

Go to assets\Scripts\cor\cor_era_mode and copy that script to data_xxx\common\scripts\XXX and rename that to XXX_era_mode then you should follow the tutorial "how to edit a shipped map".

Also read the documentation on .lua that comes with the modtools.

from what i read i need to make a new world for every map i want to change right??

Yes.

so let me c if i got this right make a new world then copy and past the default world instead of the new one how do i make it over write the one in the root of battle front 2??

In your .lua, which is the one you got from Coruscant but is now called ???c_con, scroll down past the memory pools and find this bit: and change it to Then, it will work.

um i tried editing dagobas lua i think i did every thing i am supossed to do but when i play it nothing is changed

Obviously you did something wrong. Describe the steps you went through and be specific. Also please type legibly. By not doing so, you are actually breaking the second site rule.

oh sorry i dont have a spell check but i will try harder i made a new map abc i renamed the world 1 folder world 2 i copied the odf msh effects and world 1 from assests worlds dag i opened the bfx assests dag scripts opened the luas and copy and pasted them in abc/common/scripts/abc into the right lua i edited one of them to have a different hero did the dc: thing saved it then closed the folder munged it copied and replaced the dag/dag1 file with the one in data_abc/lvl_pc/abc i opened bf2modtools and ran both clone wars and bfx clone wars but no changes where made

ReadDataFile("cor\\cor1.lvl", "cor1_conquest")

and change it to

Code: Select all

    ReadDataFile("dc:???\\cor1.lvl", "cor1_conquest")

Then, it will work.

You may have forgotten the dc.

this is there will it work ? ReadDataFile("dc:ABC\\dag1.lvl", "dag1_conquest", "dag1_cw")

If that is indeed your problem.

i mean is that the right line that should be there?

Did you read the thread in the faq exactly? I think there is everything to find you need to know about this topic.

EDIT
yes I think so but read above

ok so what i am doing is modding the lua on shipped maps but when i open battle front i get a ctd right after you see mustafar in the loding thing i used skys tutorial here http://www.gametoast.com/forums/viewtop ... 27&t=16616 would it help if i posted the lua and add me?

After looking in the era mod thread, I found your problem. You messed up your Addme.lua!!!! Either get an addme from a different map and change everything of that has a 3-letter name to your 3-letter name, or delete the map

Good thing you linked me to this

EDIT: Oh, no what is this? Satan For A day?

lol well u were trying to help

idk what to change here is the error log sev 3

Message Severity: 3
C:\Battlefront2\main\Battlefront2\Source\LuaScript.cpp(435)
Script file addme not found

here is the addme help please

Try a manual clean, it could help. By the way, is your map name XXX? It would help a little if you sent the real one your using.

yes it is xxx i made it that way to avoid any confusion on my part
