Thread: Column_Unit_Body_Texpage error

  1. #1

    Default

    Am making new faction and followed all of Lysander's texture changes with corresponding custom text changes in the unit_prod file. However, I recieved an error that read:

    Column_Unit_body_Texpage
    Description label is unknown: column 27, row 1, custom0

    I am adding just 1 new faction.
    What is problem? I have gone over and over all the possibilities.---but no dice.

    Thanks if you can help.

    You've probably inadvertently deleted one of the tabs in the text file, which will throw all columns off.

    I would recommend you use Lord Gnomes editor for changing these files (downloadable form The Org).

    I DID use the Gnome editor. I just double checked the rows and they seem okay. Do i need to mod the viking_unit_prod file aswell. Is the only possible source of this error the tabbing? Or could it be something else?

    Thanks to ALL who can contribute.

    Thanks for showing interest in helping me out. I had given up and Re-installed the whole game to start from scratch. But---Yureka I solved the problem and took another big step forward toward completing my mod. However, I Still have ONE BIG obstacle. I am trying to make the faction flag. I found the flag as a BMP image. I need to convert it to a BIF. Tried to open it with BIF reader 22B I downloaded from The Org. The BIF reader said Out of memory while expanding stream. And that is where I am...

    P.S. I am posting this msg as part of the post I started so that if you reply others can read your advice to this matter and benefit from the wisdom and info.

    Thanks and hope to finish this mod soon so I can share with everyone here.

    P.S.S. the problem I had was when creating my new faction I did not realize that i needed to change only 2 of the BIF files in the MSHELM file. I was mistaken because there were 5 BIF files that read:
    MSHELM,MSHELM_H,MSHELM.BIF_,MSHELM_H.BIF__,MSHELM_H.BIF_
    HOWEVER, Only MSHELM,MSHELM_H were the only legit changes that needed to be done.

    Hope my booboo can help some else from hitting the wall.
    Thanks to ALL who tried to help.
    Peace.
