Is it possible to import a character between sides simply but changing the req like this:

ucft
{
REQN
{
"class"
"rep_inf_ep3_officer"

}
}

It's for my new side project. Can I do it like this, or do I need to copy all the files?

If you just want the ep3 officer on a team in your level, you can do that simply through your mission lua by loading him (ReadDataFile etc) and then putting him on whichever side using SetupTeams. If you aren't going to edit him at all, I'd do it that way.

If you change the REQ like that but the rep_inf_ep3_officer.odf isn't in your side's ODF folder, that REQ won't mean anything. And if the ODF is there without the MSH, or without his weapon ODFs and MSHs, it won't work. If you actually need him on your side to edit, you need all his data (ODF, MSHs, weapon and ordnance ODFs and MSHs, and anything else he might use).

Hope that helps,
