Problems With Adding a Custom Vehicle VIA Sapien

Post by Hiei3 »

Ok, I recently downloaded a hovertank vehicle tag (hovertank.vehicle). I'm trying to put it in BloodGulch. So in the Hierarchy view, I navigate to the vehicles section and click Edit Types, so I can add it. I then navigate to the hovertank.vehicle file, and doubleclick it. But then I get an error popup that says:

"Not all the selected tags could be added to the pallette: You selected one or more files that couldn't be loaded correctly. Contact your nearest Bungie programmer for assisstance."

Please help. What do I do to be able to add custom vehicles?

Did you extract the whole archive to tags\vehicles\hovertank, or just the vehicle?

Also, open C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\debug.txt and scroll to the bottom. Post the last block of errors here.

Well, ya, I put the whole folder in the Halo CE/tags/vehicles folder. And, I think this is the block of text you requested, but I (surprisingly) cant make heads or tails of it =P.

Ohh, ok, thanks. Well a lot of parts are red. But I'm extremely new to this CE modding stuff. So, how do I know what to change each red part to? I think I got them all right.

EDIT: Omg, there's A LOT to change. Lol. This will proabably take at least 15 minutes. I think I get it guys. Thanks a whole bunch. You guys are awesome. =)

EDIT2: Uggghhhh!!!! Nothing is red anymore, but it still won't load right in Sapien!!! Here's the debug.txt stuff, someone plzzzzz help!!

EDIT3: My friend just told me that something is messed up with the hovertank, and that it won't work at all. So, if he's right, I've just wasted a lot of time, lol. So if someone can confirm this, or tell me how to fix it, that'd be great. Thanks, and also thanks to everyone who's helped so far, because now I know how to fix tags that DO work, but you gotta edit the reds in Guerilla first. Thanks a bunch, you guys all rock =).
