Frist of all I have added many units in PTW and they worked fine but when I add units in C3C it crashes to the desktop I have checked everthing and it still crashes saying "...\...\Conquests\Scenarios\Fun\Text\PediaIcons.txt file not found #ANIMNAME_PRTO_Pirate_Ship". Can some one please help.

Here are some screen shots of the editor and the PediaIcons.txt

 
Yeah I have that same problem too.I think it goes like this:

ANIMNAME_PRTO_(Unit name)

I think that's the new way to create units but I haven't tried it yet.
 
Never mind I found my problem.:)
 
Sorry I have been playing C3C all day;) anyway they did not change anything I just forget to put in where to look for the units I add.
 
Well I tried to put in the Nipponese Infantry in a random map but it wouldn't work.How did you do it for yours?
 
Ok frist make a folder in \Civilization III\Conquests\Scenarios(if you have PTW then make one in \Civilization III\CIV3PTW\Scenarios instead of \Conquests\Scenarios) name it your new mod then in that folder make two more folders and name them "Art" and "Text" (has to be those names or it will not work) in the Art folder add a "Units" folder. then in Units copy the unit folder that has the .INI file into Units. Now you are ready to add the unit go in the editor add the unit and in the box labeled Civilopedia Entry type PRTO_unit_name do not use spaces and now save the map(do not close the editor) and open the PediaIcons.txt which is in CivIII\CivPTW\Conquests\Text go down all the way to the bottom then go up above the last line that looks like this #################### right under the last unit line type #ANIMNAME_PRTO_unit_name(no spaces) and under that type unit name(use spaces) now click save as not save then save it to \Civilization III\Conquests\Scenarios\your new mod\Text. Now go in to the editor then go in to Scenario properties in the box under the Scenario description type \Scenarios\your new mod\ and it should work;)

btw hope that is not to hard to understand:p
