overkill 0 Posted March 29, 2002 I'm trying to make a map using the tcgras.pbo. I have placed it in the addons directory but when i am using the mission editor, it will not show up in the "units" area. I have selected: side: empty class: object When i go to units: i cannot find the tcgras.pbo. What am I doing wrong?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LightBringer 0 Posted March 29, 2002 i donno what is this, but try this: open the tcgras.pbo in some text editor, and search for words, which should describe the unit... maybe, if this is a soldier, with some new weapon, look for words like: lasersoldier... =) or donno what it is... (at the beginning, and at the end of the pbo-s text) then if u find, go, and look for it in the units folder at the editor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris Death 0 Posted March 30, 2002 I've read somewhere in the addons section, about the same thing. There i've seen at least one ingame name of those grasses: "Unkraut" note: "Unkraut" is a german word for weed/s, which noone needs. OK i found all (just needs a look into the pbo): Gras Weizen /wheat Gras Kentucky /guess what - yeah kentucky grass Gras Gelb /yellow grass Hasen Gras /rabitt grass Gras lila /lilac grass Unkraut1 /weed Unkraut2 /weed Unkraut3 /weed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so, then what, save it to my addons file? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris Death 0 Posted March 30, 2002 The only thing you need to do is, place the tcgras.pbo file into your addons folder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did just that. I went ahead and opened up the tcgras.pbo file with notepad and noticed that there was a lot of references to ver. 1.30. maybe it is not conpatalbe with ver. 1.46??
