I've been making a squad unit for china, based off the angry mob and red guard code, however whenever these additions are being used, they cause the "serious error" message when attempting to start ZH. The crash says: ; Reason Error parsing INI file 'Data\INI\Object\ChinaInfantry.ini' (Line: 'Object ChinaInfantryFireTeamNexus ') I've looked through several guides and tutorials, and the code seems to be fine. Any ideas what might be causing it?

Regardless, can you post the code from all created/modified INIs for us to look over? There has to be something wrong with it.

It looks like you don't have a ChinaFireteamWanderLocomotor defined in your code.

Posted by: E_Wofle - Monday, August 6, 2007 8:33:52 PM
You're right, thanks for pointing that out. That doesn't solve the crashing issue, though, so must be something else.

I didn't see any where in the code that tells it to spawn red guards in the squad. I saw that it says to spawn 5 but it doesn't say to spawn them in the form of the red guard's model.

Posted by: E_Wofle - Tuesday, August 7, 2007 7:52:05 AM
I thought the SpawnTemplateName = ChinaInfantryFireTeamRedguard line did that.

Posted by: fleetatks - Tuesday, August 7, 2007 1:23:17 PM
Since you most likely don't have a model named "ChinaInfantryFireTeamRedguard" made, replace it with the name of the red guard and it should work, if not you'll have to look in the code and see if there's anything special about the angry mob objects that allow them to be in a squad and edit the red guard code and rename it (but remember that it needs the model to be that of the red guard's.)

Posted by: E_Wofle - Tuesday, August 7, 2007 3:06:56 PM
Well, the ChinaInfantryFireTeamRedguard is just a copy of the red guard code, so it should point to the red guard models. I've looked at the angry mob code as well, and can't find anything that indicates that my code shouldn't work.

In that case I don't know what's wrong with it, but I do know that (i think) the shockwave mod has infantry squads for infantry general, you can download it and look at the codes they have for it. It's either the shockwave mod or the boss generals mod.

Posted by: randomperson - Wednesday, August 8, 2007 5:35:18 AM
epic generals is a squad based mod, you could try looking at that

Posted by: E_Wofle - Wednesday, August 8, 2007 6:30:27 AM
I figured it out, and the solution was embarrasingly simple. The actual crash was caused by a few uppercase/lowercase errors, but the fact that I had the code appearing twice in ChinaInfantry.ini meant that I fixed half of the errors in each. That's what I get for modding at 4 am. Thanks for the help anyway, it's most appreciated.
