Wich files are related to the skeletons?

[mucky305]

VERY CAREFULLY, check your filenames and paths in your DMB files and ensure that the models_unit files match exactly (minus the .dds part). Next, as suggested, check your EDU file to ensure that ownership matches the DMB (for example, Cohors Imperatoria has both seleucid and slave entries for the DMB and EDU files). The only way it could be a "game" problem is if your executable is corrupt. The UI files are linked to the dictionary (I believe; either way it would be the unit name with the underscores; the other unit name links to the EDB file) line in the EDU file so ensure that your UI files have the correct filename with "info" on the end for unit info folder and the "#" at the beginning in the units folder. Most errors are caused by improper text editing or incorrect files. The invisible officer sword bug, for example is a conflict between the animation used by javelin/pilum hurling units and the fact that the officer unit entries in the DMB file do not have the pilum/javelin skeleton (nor are they meant to) so when the unit hurls the missiles, the officer sword disappears. Keeping working and you will figure out the problem.

arg! I had posted a reply saying that the texture thing was corrected but I didn't notice the server fell by the time I sent the reply

I'm using the dictionary entry...(copy&paste) , which is also the same in DMB

[mcantu]

could you post the bit of code youre having problems with?

here

;Italic Principes

type				italic_principes
skeleton			fs_pilum, fs_gladius
indiv_range			40
texture				seleucid, eb/data/models_unit/textures/roman/roma_rome_principe.tga
model_flexi_m					eb/data/models_unit/roma_principe_high.cas, 15
model_flexi_m					eb/data/models_unit/roma_principe_med.cas, 30
model_flexi_m					eb/data/models_unit/roma_principe_low.cas, 40
model_flexi					eb/data/models_unit/roma_principe_lowest.cas, max
model_sprite		seleucid, 60.0, eb/data/sprites/roman/romans_julii_roman_principes_sprite.spr
model_tri			400, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f

notice how the texture line says eb/data/models_unit/textures/roman/roma_rome_principe.tga

however it wont find it if it's not in eb/data/models_unit/textures

now I'm having problems with the UI card, I'm using the dictionary entry #italic_principes, the unit_info image isn't working either (italic_principes_INFO)

Could you please post your edu entry?

The problem is your ownership line in EDU or texture/sprite lines in DMB, whichever way you want to do it. Your ownership has to match exactly. Refer to what Squid and I said. You have seleucid only for your DMB and seleucid, slave in the EDU. Both should match so ownership in EDU should be just seleucid or you need to include a texture and sprite line in your DMB for slave. Either way, it will work.
