Post subject:  coding problems....
sup, I'm making a mod of the ronin tommy gun, to test my ability to sprite and mod, and its pretty obvious i can sprit A LOT better than i can mod, because my mods dont load. It's probably a begginer mistake so any modding god who sees this will whve no trouble, and probably flame me for being such a noob, but please help!!!

it just wont load, nd it gives me this in the abort screen : Failed to load datafile object with following path and name : Dt.
then i got to abortscreen .bmp and it says thatit stoppend at : Devices/Dtommy.ini at line 100.
when i checked that it turned out to be: (line98)ParentOffset = Vector
(line99)X = -2
(line100)Y = 1

please help, i dont know what the heck to do :(

oops forgot to put up the folder lols

Use code blocks to clarify.

Failed to load object means that you're referencing something that doesn't exist.

Check your code read order; if it's a gun it should go particle > round > magazine > gun

Then check capitalization and make sure that particle types match.

Please. Use [code][/code] Put your code in there.

GODDAMNIT [/CODE]! YOU NEED THE SLASH TO CLOSE IT!

since i cant see anything wrong, its probably incorrect tabbing or caps, especially since you didnt try to copy DT.

The magazine sprite doesn't have an extension. Maybe a problem, maybe not.

Also, the abortscreen image shows you the loading process - it increments the loading line number in 100s, so your error isn't at 100. The error message should've told you the exact line.
