(didn't IMG tag it to save bandwidth on the forum) http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/5163/errorsx1.png Code: AddAmmo = Magazine InstanceName = Magazine FNP90 Mass = 2 HitsMOs = 0 GetsHitByMOs = 0 SpriteFile = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/FNP90-MAG.bmp FrameCount = 1 SpriteOffset = Vector X = -3 Y = -4 EntryWound = AEmitter CopyOf = Dent Metal ExitWound = AEmitter CopyOf = Dent Metal AtomGroup = AtomGroup AutoGenerate = 1 Material = Material CopyOf = Bullet Metal Resolution = 2 Depth = 0 DeepGroup = AtomGroup AutoGenerate = 1 Material = Material CopyOf = Bullet Metal Resolution = 3 Depth = 1 DeepCheck = 1 JointStrength = 200 JointStiffness = 1 JointOffset = Vector X = 0 Y = -3 ParentOffset = Vector X = 1 Y = 0 DrawAfterParent = 0 RoundCount = 30 RTTRatio = 4 RegularRound = Round CopyOf = Round SMG TracerRound = Round CopyOf = Round SMG Tracer AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOPixel CopyOf = Spark Yellow 1 Count = 5 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 20 MinVelocity = 8 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOSParticle CopyOf = Gib Metal Rust Micro A Count = 4 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 15 MinVelocity = 5 GibWoundLimit = 1 AddDevice = HDFirearm InstanceName = FNP90 AddToGroup = Weapons AddToGroup = Automatics AddToGroup = Subguns Mass = 10 HitsMOs = 0 GetsHitByMOs = 1 SpriteFile = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/FNP90-WEAPON.bmp FrameCount = 2 SpriteOffset = Vector X = -7 Y = -4 EntryWound = AEmitter CopyOf = Dent Metal ExitWound = AEmitter CopyOf = Dent Metal GoldValue = 20 AtomGroup = AtomGroup AutoGenerate = 1 Material = Material CopyOf = Military Stuff Resolution = 4 Depth = 0 DeepGroup = AtomGroup AutoGenerate = 1 Material = Material CopyOf = Military Stuff Resolution = 4 Depth = 10 DeepCheck = 1 JointStrength = 75 JointStiffness = 0.5 JointOffset = Vector X = -3 Y = 3 DrawAfterParent = 0 StanceOffset = Vector X = 6 Y = 5 SharpStanceOffset = Vector X = 7 Y = -2 SupportOffset = Vector X = 5 Y = 4 SharpLength = 165 Magazine = Magazine CopyOf = Magazine SMG ParentOffset = Vector X = 3 Y = 1 Flash = Attachable CopyOf = Muzzle Flash SMG FireSound = Sound AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/M1601.wav AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/M1602.wav AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/M1603.wav AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/M1604.wav AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/M1605.wav AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/M1606.wav EmptySound = Sound AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/EmptyClick3.wav ReloadStartSound = Sound AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/ReloadStart.wav ReloadEndSound = Sound AddSample = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/ReloadEnd.wav RateOfFire = 800 ReloadTime = 1500 FullAuto = 1 FireIgnoresThis = 1 ShakeRange = 12 SharpShakeRange = 3 NoSupportFactor = 3 ParticleSpreadRange = 3 ShellSpreadRange = 8 ShellAngVelRange = 2 MuzzleOffset = Vector X = 10 Y = 0 EjectionOffset = Vector X = 1 Y = -1 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOPixel CopyOf = Spark Yellow 1 Count = 6 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 20 MinVelocity = 8 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOPixel CopyOf = Spark Yellow 2 Count = 5 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 20 MinVelocity = 8 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOPixel CopyOf = Drop Oil Count = 4 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 10 MinVelocity = 1 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOSParticle CopyOf = Gib Metal Rust Micro A Count = 6 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 15 MinVelocity = 5 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOSParticle CopyOf = Gib Metal Grey Micro A Count = 4 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 15 MinVelocity = 5 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOSRotating CopyOf = Gib Device Small K Count = 1 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 10 MinVelocity = 1 AddGib = Gib GibParticle = MOSRotating CopyOf = Gib Device Small I Count = 1 Spread = 2.25 MaxVelocity = 10 MinVelocity = 1 GibWoundLimit = 3 That's the Code in the SMGs.ini config file in the directory: "Cortex Command\Base.rte\Devices\SMGs" All I did was change the names of the image files and the instance file etc. I tried looking up the ".\System\ConfigFile.ccp" but couldn't find it. I made this post in need of help and made it as detailed as I could in hope someone would help me and because the Wikipedia page didn't show how to add a weapon and I couldn't find a tutorial on the forum. Thanks in advance. I also think people should respect the forums more, and when posting should keep it clean and understandable from what I've seen.

Code: FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/FNP90-WEAPON.bmp Check the location, and whether the sprite is named with the correct syntax. I reserve the right to be completely wrong.

To fix, make it go FrameCount = 1 instead. Oh yes, when spriting, it is DEADLY important to make it in the right palette, or else you'd just get a fudged up sprite in game. An easy way to do this is to copy the original sprite into the palette.bmp, and then crop it into the right size. Or just make it in the palette.bmp image from the start Edit: Hmm, after seeing the second error, i don't know exactly what to do. That type of error is a real bugger, as it isn't very accurate in pointing out the line. Wait... I see something. Code: AddAmmo = Magazine InstanceName = Magazine FNP90 Mass = 2 HitsMOs = 0 GetsHitByMOs = 0 SpriteFile = ContentFile FilePath = Base.rte/Devices/SMGs/FNP90-MAG.bmp <--- OSHI- FrameCount = 1 Is there any sprite file in that folder named FNP90-MAG.bmp?
