how do you avoid the "Missing:" tag with unit name

Evedgebah · 10-13-2003, 09:19 AM

I am a new modder and cannot figure out how to create a new unit's name. I enter it under UIName:name and Name=name but ingame it shows as missing? Plz Help.

You've got to add it to the string file of RA2.

XCC Mixer -> Launch -> String Table Editor

Good luck ^_^

I couldn't have said it better myself CJ BTW what's your avatar supposed to be

ComradeJ · 10-13-2003, 09:35 AM

Yuri_the_mind-enslaver · 10-13-2003, 10:18 AM

WarCraft III: the Frozen Throne

WC3 freak! J/K, Frozen Throne is awesome (even though I suck at it... least I can play Generals pretty good). I got to get back to "work" *hohohoho*, but that is a cool avatar CJ.

I trust Evedgebah understands how to edit strings from there, right?
