well, I've tried to get this right, but I keep getting the same error, in the form of:

"Error loading file from "/scenario/DyP/text/pediaicons.txt": Animname_"

and so I was wondering if someone could help me. there is a link to scenario I need modfied, and with it is the text file. I would like the M26 Pershing unit from the WWII pack added in under the name "M4 Sherman." If you could also include step by step instructions, that would be great.

There is also another thread in the unit sub catagory, here (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=44456)

Thank you guys, the link is here: http://groups.msn.com/GamecatcherUploads/Documents/DyPScenario.zip

Note to Moderators: I want sure whether this goes here, or in the unit sub-forum, so its in both places.

Let's see if I can help :D
First off I added the Unit to your bix and pediaicon files. ;)
Next, you need to open the editor and fix the icon, and all of the specs, I only added the unit's name.

Now go into your CivIII/PTW/extras/WWII/M26 Pershing folder.
copy it and paste it into your senario folder/art/units folder.
rename it M4 Sherman. inside the folder rename the .ini to match the folder name.

Now see if it works :)
(I don't think I left anything out)
