Bokken Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Did you read Getting Started.doc? If you did everything it told you, and there is still no sides folder, just remunge. If it does it again, reinstall. I also recommend using THIS thread. You can still find some useful stuff, even though you can't register a new account.

HockeyGoalie35 Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 ok, first i use visual munge to make a map. then i copy all the republic assets and make a REP side in my sides folder. i then use gimp to edit the skins i want and when i save, i uncheck the RLE compression. then i go to map_abc/build_/sides and i go to the REP folder and click the munge thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bokken Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Therein lies your problem. After you're done making changes to the map, you go to data_abc\_build\Modtools VisualMunge.exe You munge the map twice, once to make it, and once to put it in-game. In VM now: Make sure "Common" is checked. In the "Sides" dropdown box, select the side you want munged, or select EVERYTHING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyGoalie35 Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 but when i munge the REP folder into a .lvl, i get 130 errors of the deafault stuff...... can you tell me what to do after i edited the skins(the whole munging process)?

Bokken Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 After you're done editing the skins. 1)Go to "C:\BF2_ModTools\data_ABC\Common\scripts\ABC". 2) Open ABCc_con.lua. This is where the game's functions are, like which sides/units show up in-game. 3) Go down a bit. You'll see the line ReadDataFile("SIDE\\rep.lvl", Add a dc: before SIDE\\. It should look: ReadDataFile("dc:SIDE\\rep.lvl", This tells the game that it is a customized side, something you've made changes to. 4) Save it. Munge the way I told you before. Notify of any further problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bokken Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 What happens when you try to run the game, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyGoalie35 Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 the game crashes when i start a clone wars era battle because i replaced the deafaelt rep with this one (im trying to make my own rep side for the entire game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bokken Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Did you backup the default side? Always do that. To properly replace the side, go to: "[Your SWBFII Directory]GameData\DATA\_LVL_PC\SIDE" Backup rep.lvl, and replace it with the rep.lvl from "[Your SWBFII Directory]\GameData\addon\ABC\data\_LVL_PC\SIDE" If you've done that, and it still fails, run the game and Private Message me the contents of your BFront2.log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyGoalie35 Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 ok i sent it EDIT: its as if when i munge the map together, the visual munge cant find the side munger and so theres no sides folder unless i do it manully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
