Where is that from? ---------- Post added at 07:34 ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 ---------- Oh cool, but do you know if there will be some in the full game without mods?

I still get the same texture path error. I can't figure out what is wrong with the path though.

I'll try that when I get home, thanks.

Well, when i create the .pbo using elitness, the folder still remains. Should I not be using elitness? I just opened the .pbo using elitness and everything is in there. It includes the whole path though(ch27_mod>program files (x86)>steam>steamapps>common>arma3>@idf>addons>ch27_mod>data). D need to delete the whole file that the .pbo was created from?

Oh, ok. So just to make sure the pbo is outside the ch27_mod folder? Well, I still can't get it to work. I've looked through my config for errors in the path but cant find any. Maybe you can. enum { destructengine = 2, destructdefault = 6, destructwreck = 7, destructtree = 3, destructtent = 4, stabilizedinaxisx = 1, stabilizedinaxesxyz = 4, stabilizedinaxisy = 2, stabilizedinaxesboth = 3, destructno = 0, stabilizedinaxesnone = 0, destructman = 5, destructbuilding = 1 }; class CfgPatches { class ch27_A3_IDF_F_BLUFOR { units[] = {"ch27_B_Soldier_GL_F"}; weapons[] = {"ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr"}; requiredVersion = 0.1; requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Characters_F", "A3_Characters_F_BLUFOR"}; }; }; class cfgFactionClasses { class ch27_IDF { displayName = "IDF"; priority = 3; side = 1; }; }; class CfgVehicles { class B_Soldier_GL_F; class ch27_B_Soldier_GL_F : B_Soldier_GL_F { faction = "ch27_IDF"; displayName = "Grenadier"; linkedItems[] = {"ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr", "H_HelmetB_paint", "NVGoggles", "ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio"}; respawnLinkedItems[] = {"ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr", "H_HelmetB_paint", "NVGoggles", "ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio"}; }; }; class cfgWeapons { class ItemCore; class ItemInfo; class Vest_Base; class VestItem; class ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr: Vest_Base { scope = 2; displayName = "Carrier GL Rig (IDF)"; picture = "\A3\characters_f\Data\UI\icon_V_plate_carrier_2_CA.paa"; model = "\A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\equip_b_vest01.p3d"; hiddenSelections[] = {"camo"}; hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\ch27_mod\data\idf01_co.paa"}; class ItemInfo: VestItem { uniformModel = "\A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\equip_b_vest01.p3d"; containerClass = "Supply150"; mass = 60; armor = "5*0.6"; passThrough = 0.75; hiddenSelections[] = {"camo"}; }; }; }; File paths http://s1315.photobucket.com/user/chaseh27/media/path_zps867bb721.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0

Yep, .pbo is in the addons folder and the data folder is next with the config.cpp and texture file. So when i make a new pbo, it includes all folders that follow it right? Here is a picture of my file path. On the left is where the pbo is and on the right is the data folder where the config and .paa are. http://s1315.photobucket.com/user/chaseh27/media/path_zps5da0d518.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0 Also, I remember reading somewhere that the retexture has to be a specific size for it to work but I can't find where i read this. Do you guys think that this could be affecting it?

My pbo is actually named mod. You said to put my tags in front of the pbo, so the path would be "\ch27_mod\data\IDF01_co.paa"?

I did have .pbo in my .paa path but i deleted it. ---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ---------- enum { destructengine = 2, destructdefault = 6, destructwreck = 7, destructtree = 3, destructtent = 4, stabilizedinaxisx = 1, stabilizedinaxesxyz = 4, stabilizedinaxisy = 2, stabilizedinaxesboth = 3, destructno = 0, stabilizedinaxesnone = 0, destructman = 5, destructbuilding = 1 }; class CfgPatches { class ch27_A3_IDF_F_BLUFOR { units[] = {"ch27_B_Soldier_GL_F"}; weapons[] = {"ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr"}; requiredVersion = 0.1; requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Characters_F", "A3_Characters_F_BLUFOR"}; }; }; class cfgFactionClasses { class ch27_IDF { displayName = "IDF"; priority = 3; side = 1; }; }; class CfgVehicles { class B_Soldier_GL_F; class ch27_B_Soldier_GL_F : B_Soldier_GL_F { faction = "ch27_IDF"; displayName = "Grenadier"; linkedItems[] = {"ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr", "H_HelmetB_paint", "NVGoggles", "ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio"}; respawnLinkedItems[] = {"ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr", "H_HelmetB_paint", "NVGoggles", "ItemMap", "ItemCompass", "ItemWatch", "ItemRadio"}; }; }; class cfgWeapons { class ItemCore; class ItemInfo; class Vest_Base; class VestItem; class ch27_V_PlateCarrierGL_rgr: Vest_Base { scope = 2; displayName = "Carrier GL Rig (IDF)"; picture = "\A3\characters_f\Data\UI\icon_V_plate_carrier_2_CA.paa"; model = "\A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\equip_b_vest01.p3d"; hiddenSelections[] = {"camo"}; hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\mod\data\IDF01_co.paa"}; class ItemInfo: VestItem { uniformModel = "\A3\Characters_F\BLUFOR\equip_b_vest01.p3d"; containerClass = "Supply150"; mass = 60; armor = "5*0.6"; passThrough = 0.75; hiddenSelections[] = {"camo"}; }; }; };

With the tag, all I have to do is insert something like ch27 into the correct spots? Thanks surpher for making that config. Ok, after using surpher's config and putting in a key, i got an error loading up the IDF unit. Screenshot: http://s1315.photobucket.com/user/chaseh27/media/2013-05-04_00001_zpsda980e05.jpg.html Can I just make my own tag or do I need to download it from that site?

Ok so I've edited my config. the .paa is called IDF01_CO.paa. Does this picture of the edited part of my config look good so far? Also, how do I put this specific vest texture onto a unit? If I wanted to make a unit called IDF Rifleman, what would I edit in the config.cpp to apply this texture to it?

Oh, I didn't realize that. Thanks ---------- Post added 05-04-2013 at 12:10 AM ---------- Previous post was 05-03-2013 at 11:58 PM ---------- I can't find an option to covert back to .cpp in Elitness.

Ok, so I'm at my computer now. How do I actually create the config.cpp or find it?

Thanks a lot guys. I'll try it out later today.

Thanks, ill try it out when I get home.(posting this from my phone) ---------- Post added at 17:36 ---------- Previous post was at 17:32 ---------- So after I make my .cpp, i pack that into my ad dons.pbo along with my .paa texture and I leave the .bin completely out of the whole thing?

So how do I edit it if I can't convert it back to.cpp.

I used elitness to unpack the characters_f.pbo and the config.bin is in there but no.cpp. ---------- Post added at 16:29 ---------- Previous post was at 16:24 ---------- And thanks Messiah for the texture naming link. I was trying to find that before.

I did make a pbo file with the .paa in it but instead of config.cpp I have a .bin. How do I make a .cpp?

Thanks so much.
