Um, I did what you said, Mav, but when I went to data_***/Common/Scripts/GJP and I didn't find the ***1_con. Am I supposed to make the REQ file, or is it supposed to be there? And how DO I make a file?
Just copy an already existing req file into your req folder, i normally use the conquest mode of the same map (GJPc_con.req), and change the c to 1, then open the file and change the c to 1 in there as well. For your lua, just copy the GJPg_con.lua and rename it to GJP1_con.lua.
I think i should say this though, if you're struggling to create a req and lua, I highly doubt you'll be able to add Rising Son without a LOT of help.
Well, I know a lot about changing, but making the actual file can be tough since notepad does not like to save where it is supposed to. thanks anyways, because I'm getting rid of the Clone Wars era, since my map takes place during the Dark Times/ Great Jedi Purge. :maulsaber: Thanks.
I've added Rising Son to a mod map that I've been working on and DT Conquest crashes as soon as it starts to load. Here's my...

I followed the instructions pretty carefully and I didn't really struggle with anything so I'm not sure what the problem is. The BF2Log didn't help me much since I couldn't find any issues with CP1 in the lua or ZE.
All your error means is that the lua wasn't able to read far enough to load your world. Your problem is that all the random unit stuff is outside ScriptInit (it should be inside).

And just automatically pasted the material below that instead of reading down further.
I've edited the lua accordingly. Right now it's munging so I'll post an update in a bit.
EDIT: No success. Here's the edited lua.

What your mungelog told you is that you needed to end the statement started at that line, not that you needed to end it there. You are still missing an "end" at the end of ScriptPostLoad (the end that's currently down there is just the "end" to an if statement).
