Ah, ok ill try doing it manually then

EDIT: That solved it, thanks!

Yes, it is a custom side, however there is no new folder in _BUILD/Sides

(Also when I did my first side it did it automatically for me, so unless i'm missing something?)

No, all msh files have their respective option files

Now, I remember downloading it, and using it several times before, but I have no idea where it is now, or if it is even on this visualmunge anymore

Ok, so I searched around for this, but could not find an answer,

I'm creating a new republic side for my mod, however unlike my previous side I created for the mod following the exact same steps, this one will not munge. Basically no munge folder appears in the munge file, and no NRP.lvl is anywhere to be found. Anyone have an idea what could be causing this issue?

I play (original) SWBF2

I don't believe you can open .msh files directly in blender. But what you can do is use XSI to convert the msh to obj and then import the obj file into blender.

If im correct, that depends on the version of XSI, using 7.5 (the newest one) won't convert out to OBJ (unless something new has been created to convert out), however, using a OBJ converter found here: http://www.gametoast.com/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=14857 may do the trick.

I have created a kitbashed (more heavily edited) imperial officer model that was ripped from free-radical's swbf3 by corra. However after completed the model, I was not able to create it as an unit due to XSI crashing on select on my system (AMD integrated graphics card does not like autodesk in the slightest (and to make matters worse, I am actually familiar with animating models). Would someone be willing to cover to model from OBJ to a unit .MSH. Thanks!

Try here, it should give you the info you need:

Also regarding the dc: part, how finicky ZE and .lua is, I would not even be surprised if a capital DC: fixed it .-.

EDIT: Just tried with DC: didn't work.

Besides it crashing on start ;/

And no, i'm using nothing else custom, and for that matter, this was a fresh testing world I was using, and got this result. Whatever the issue is, its something deep in the system, as this is the 5th custom testing world i've created to test this, unless i'm stupid, there is something deep going on here... 

My first guess was it could be related to the system itself, but that cant logically be the case or else every mod i've used with intensive models would crash out in seconds.

Well, the log told me little to nothing:

Any other ideas?

So, I created my own custom side using GGCTUK's stormies for models. I made new odfs, reqs for them, and everything, I munged, got the standard and I paraphrase "OH NOES IT WILL BE SLOW BECUZ NO COLLISION" message, and everything. Then, I load up the map, *turns away then looks back* and now its closed to desktop . This is not the first time this has happened to me while making a custom side, I first tried using GGCTUK's TFU models, but that didn't work and the same thing happened (closing to desktop) I figured it may just have been too many polys (but considering it was a blank map idk what I was thinking). So I decided to use the lower poly models, and that gave me the same result, so I decided to put in the the stock stormtrooper model, and guess what, the EXACT SAME CRASH happened (so my too many poly's theory was busted then and there). Everytime I change to a custom side in the LUA, I get a close to desktop, even if its light models there. Does anyone have a clue what could be causing this issue?

NOTE: I use the GCW-1035 mod commonly (all the time >.>), so the odds are its not the models are too intensive for my PC (which I thought could have been an issue as viramund city and kothlis once crashed on my PC, but it now works just fine without FPS drop).   

No, that just slows the game itself down, but too many polygons in the map will create a close to desktop (note a crash but not close to desktop is more likely object count which is semi unrelated). So, lets say you have 5 leet high poly objects in your map, odds are that the game would just close to desktop from high poly count.

Well, i've tried every trick ik and i've got nothing  , (side note, you may have a high poly count or something, it kept crashing to desktop without error messages for me) there is nothing wrong with lua/zeroeditor and there is nothing wrong with the map itself from what I can tell, try asking on gametoast maybe, they may be able to better help you!
