Cloning problem

[bigboywooly]

Hi I am trying to clone a coastal merc type 102 into a inshore merc type 104 to make some more traffic around the coast

When I load up SH3 Mission Ed I get " The unit class KIM (the name I gave it ) from country British not found in the platforms library "

Through SH3 Inspector I get " NKIM unit bypassed.No .cfg file exists for this unit"

Well the .cfg does exist lol not sure what the problem is

Any ideas?

Have previously cloned the 3 Hunts from DD type 4 to DE type 3 which they should be with no problems at all - all work in museum and mission ed

Any help appreciated guys

My first guess would be that you forgot to add a .cfg file to any nations' roster folder. If that was the case, then the unit would be in the game but would not be assigned to any nation.

No it was assigned to the British folder which is why the mission ed says "the unit class KIM from country British not found in the platforms library"

I think it means the one in the sea folder but that was there as well so not sure whats going on

Thanx for suggestion anyway - will try again when blood pressure has returned to normal lol:rotfl:

Hi bbw,

maybe there's an error in the .cfg file [or in file name], so the ME can't recognize it?!

SSB :hmm:

Well, there could be an error in the text of the file, but if the name was wrong, you would probably get a CTD.

I used the orig KSQ .cfg and altered it which is all I did for the DE Hunts ( used the DD Hunt)

Something not right as managed to get it to work once but then i got the same message for the KSQ .cfg which was untouched and when I dragged new ship into a mission on miss ed it CTD

Will leave it for a few days let my head clear lol

Thanx for help guys - sure I will get there in the end
