Problems with config.cpp

[Choctaw 1]

I've followed Scarecrow398's and Stiltman's guides on how to re-texture characters, so I tried my hand at it. So far, I have clothing1_co.paa, equip2_co.paa, and vests_rgr_co.paa all edited (and renamed) to my liking.

This is my config, which is based on Stiltman's examples.

I defined my classes but I still am getting a few errors. One is "Cannot load texture: data/ks_clothing1_co.paa." and the other is "No entry '.bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons.ACP1.'" I've tried packaging my pbo with PboView, at which point I put MyAddon.pbo into an addons folder, then put that in another folder which I named @MyAddon. Everything so far went fairly smooth, but now I don't know what I did wrong. Did I make an error in my config where I defined the classes? That's what I'm thinking, but I'm really new to coding. I'd appreciate any help I could get. Thanks!

EDIT: I figured it out myself. My error was that I didn't correctly define my paths for my textures.

\data\ks_clothing1_co.paa isn't enough for it to know where to look for your texture, it should be along the lines of \yourpboname\anysubfolders\thetexturename.paa

I'm having very similar problems using the same template. We have all our textures made for our unit, but are testing the uniforms first. As far as I can tell the texture paths have been defined properly. Can anyone shed some light on this for me, as I'm very new to this and some what frustrated as this is the last step :p

EDIT: Never mind, managed to figure it out as a unit. :)
