Hi, i got the next problem:
I have done a unit for RA2 (whit no pach, yr, expancion, mod or anything)
Im done whit the VXL and the HVA files.
I have finished its turret files too...
The main problem is that i´ve already put it in the game and it doesnt work...
when it is one of the multiplay start units it doesnt move, attack. I cant attack it too, its life appear somewhere else and seems to be almost "death"...
When i order other unit to attack it (ctrl+click) nothing happens (the other unit dont attack it!)

in rules.ini i have listed it in vehicles and pleaced its description in vehicles too, here it is:

"ThreatPosed=0" Laughing

Now that's a big monster of destruction! ROFL!

Other than that, the only error is you stated
Voxel=yes
Remapable=yes
twise Rolling Eyes

Also, I don't think VisibleLoad=yes does anything, but I might be wrong Wink

And you don't need to state "ElitePrimary=T1Missile" when "Primary=T1Missile" It's just a useless random lne unless you do make an elite weapon like T1MissileE (where the E stands for Elite (normal RA2 system))

I corrected those things and it continue crashing the game when i build it up.

I thing there´s something i completely missed up, but i cant find it.

Is there some especification when creating the HVA file?
What im doing its a mech so the only animation it haves is when it walks and is 11 frames long. Im sure i have read somewhere that if the HVA file is not correct it will crash the game.

Thanks for your time, sorry for my poor english

May we see the new code with all related codes, as weapon can cresh the game. Also, does the game crash during loading, in map or when you try to build the unit?

I'm not helping 'till you spell 'with' correctly...jk Laughing

Almost 100% sure VisibleLoad is no longer supported incase you were wondering. More old TS logic that was edited out.

As for your mech, is it a shp? If it is you need:
Voxel=no
WalkFrames= (number of frames in a walk cycle for each direction)
FiringFrames= (number of frames in an attack cycle for each direction)
Oh and threat must be 1 or more...for logic's sake.

Primary=T1Missile
Image=MECH1

1. Be sure that the image and the name in artmd is the same!

[MECH1]
Voxel=yes ;I think that is your problem
Cameo= ;Any you want (Be sure it's .shp!)
AltCameo= ;A veteran Icon

2. Put the shp,vxl and hva in the same folder like C://Ra2 (Any of your location folder)
