Ah, Wonderful
So here I am, I've spent a week or so on my Mod, a few Grenades, and today I added a sniper. So, to celebrate, I decided to test them out, i had the grenades in seperate folders before this, and i got them to load.Now it's all in one convinient folder and when i'd finally got all the source codes right, and it loaded, i went onto a level, and looked for them in the menu...I looked...and Looked...and they weren't there...

As a modding noob amogst experts, i ask you....help?

thanks,
SergaCorp

Not sure, but I don't think Cortex Command looks for a .rte inside of a .rte

If that isn't the problem, maybe the index.ini isn't pointing to all of them.

Maybe you didn't make the grenades buyable, or you didn't check the bombs tab.

open the index.ini in notepad, if it isn't pointing to all the other .inis, then Cortex Command wont read them.

Code:
DataModule
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Sounds.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Mat.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Effects.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Wounds.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Gibs.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Engines.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Retro Thruster.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Doors.ini
   IncludeFile = Stamper.rte/Stamper.ini

etc.

I have a similar problem with my mod. I've used the Strike Raven (Thanks numgun :grin: ) as a base and I moved all the needed bits into the same folder. But it doesn't show up in the actual game.
After careful concentration, i've noticed that it doesn't actually finish loading the folder, yet it still plays the game.

Can you upload the mod somewhere like drop.io?
So we can find the the problem easier.

Me?
Well I just need to perfect a couple of other bits, but then I was going to release it publically (except the project above)...If you let me sort the rest, I'll post it up with a note about that unit.

doesn't it need to be referrenced to a catagory in the buy menu?

Post subject:  Re: My First Mod, My First Problem

Well mine is. And to be sure, I set the "Buyable" to 1. Or should it be 0?
