Unit changes not showing

[wlesmana]

Put the new skin into Data/models_unit/textures
If there is no such folder, you must make them.
Then the entry should be:

type carthaginian_infantry ; combat spear
skeleton fs_swordsman
indiv_range 40
texture carthage, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_infantryreskinned.tga
texture spain, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_infantry_spain.tga
texture slave, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_infantry_rebel.tga
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_high.cas, 15
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_med.cas, 30
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_low.cas, 40
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_lowest.cas, max
model_sprite slave, 60.0, data/sprites/slave_carthaginian_infantry_sprite.spr

Am i supposed to repack the xpack files or somthing, cuz dispite everything ive tried the changes dont show up

[Makanyane]

If that's your current version you've got texture written twice
on same line:
texture texture carthage,
otherwise it looks like it should work but its a long time since I did stuff in RTW.

[Twichy_boy]

That was...odd after i got rid of the second "texture" line it went back to closing the game on me,

could it have to do with the Pak files i never repacked?

[SSJVegetaTrunks]

Perhaps since it couldn't read it the first time, it decided to ignore it so that it didn't show up in the game. Then, when you fixed it, it is reading it but there is another problem.

Are you using -show_err?

[Twichy_boy]

What is show_err?

[Atilius]

Always use it! Here's a link to a TWC post that explains a bunch of command line switches, including show_err.
