Default How the heck do you make upgrades?

Ok I give, I've looked over a few sites and I dont see exactly what I'm looking for. I'm making a mod that requires a lot of new upgrades, thing is I cant seem to get them to work, does anybody know of a good tutorial or have advice on how to make upgrades? I dont care about scripting them as the AI wont be using the new faction anyway. :/

no, when I tried to do it the game wont start, says something about an acess violation, in any event I dont even really know enough about how to do one, I really need a tutorial but no clues, I've been trying to wing it but no luck no matter how much I try. :/

I ran world builder but it actually gave me nothing, I tried cras info and all it says is it's some where in chinavehicle.ini ( was trying to give the battlemaster the ECM tank missile jammer field to test out upgrades) so far it's been a whole lot of nothing , also sorry about the severe lateness of my reply but between school and work and other bs I've been kind of occupied , anyway I'm at an impass till something comes up, guess I'll search the web for a tutorial on the subject unless someone can come up with a solution =/

Could you post us some code?

You could be referencing an upgrade that doesn't exist, the upgrade could contain references to objects/ocls/etc that don't exist.

Try to modify the existing upgrades before you make your own. I know you need The CommandSet, CommandButton, and the proper code in the place where the upgrade is purchased and where it is to be applied. Try changing around the TOW missile upgrade. See if you can put it on the Humvee and have it cheaper so each hummer has to purchase it's own upgrade. Start simple, making a whole new upgrade from scratch for the first time is a bad idea.
