"C" encountered instead of "{" Config Error

[gepanzert-faust 10]

Hey, could somebody try and point out my error with this config?

I have simply tried to create a new 12.7 mm high-explosive round for the Lynx sniper rifle.

I've copied one of the other 12.7mm rounds as a base, modified it, created a new magazine and finally used "class CfgWeapons" to try and update the Lynx to accept the new magazine.

The config still contains irrelevant parameters regarding the actual new ammo, I'll remove those later, but for now I can't even get the mod to load.

I can't get rid of the "C" encountered instead of "{" error on line 47?

Everything looks fine as to me - although I admit I'm a "still learning" type of config noob :D

You need to close class CfgAmmo tree with "};" - You've got one closing CamShakeHit, one closing B_127x108_HE, but for CfgAmmo it's missing, making preprocessor mad.

BTW: it's ArmA: CWA AKA Operation Flashpoint forum - Arma 3 forums are up! ;)

Every base class you include needs an semicolom at the end

class Rifle_Long_Base_F needs to be class Rifle_Long_Base_F;

Thanks guys - and sorry for posting in wrong area, daft mistake :confused:

If I may, I recommend to write curly brackets on separate lines, and to indent the properties listed between them, as seen below. It helps a lot with reading the code and finding any errors. Btw, if you use a localization key ($STR_A3…), you have to write it without quotation marks, else the string isn't transformed into its actual content in the game. And finally, values of the properties in the form of expressions won't work written in the way you used in your config. Please try adding __EVAL in front of the expression, as seen in the code below. This command should make the expression work.
