Hy guys,
while trying to create a new unit in a modded campaign folder I incurred in some problem.
In detail, I firstly copied in the SQUADS.CSV file a "Bavarian_Bayonet_Veteran,404,Allies,..." unit at the bottom of the file renaming it "Grenadier,491,Axis,..." and letting unalterd all the other parameters.
Then I added at the bottom of the TEXT.1 file the following indication:
IDS_UNITNAME491, "Grenadiers",
IDS_UNITINFO491, "Grenadiers",
When tried to launch the mod in the game, however, it crashed and two messages appeared of this content:

Duplicate unit name in custom campaign squads file:
BLUE_PIKE_AND_SHOT
(0)

*** Unhandled Exception! ExpCode: 0x80000003
ExpFlags:
ExpAddress: 0x00490240 Please report!

Of course, I didn't duplicate the Pike and Shot unit so I'm stucked having no idea where the problem is.
Has anyone of you any hint to solve the problem?
Thank's for all your help!

Or maybe should I insert the aforementioned information (IDS_UNITNAME491, "Grenadiers" and IDS_UNITINFO491,"Grenadiers",) also in the TEXT4.TXT, TEXT5.TXT AND TEXT10.TXT files?

It seems very much that the SQUADS.CSV file duplicates - it is possible because of your changes in the file. The 1st cell of it (A1) should containes #REPLACE - check it.

In effect, the SQUADS.CSV files contain in the first cell te locution "#REPLACE".
Is it right or wrong?

It is right. But why do you mention the SQUADS.CSV file in plural? There should only be one file with that name in your mod folder.

Sorry, it was just a writing mistake ...

Given the fact that in the SQUADS.CSV file the "#REPLACE" mention is correctly inserted, why the file should duplicate the units?
That remain a mistery to me ...
And there's something that I could do in order to avoid the problem?
If you haveany hint I would be really grateful!!

The changes you described in your first post should not cause any problems when running the mod (if they are done correctly).
If you want me to figure out why this error occurs, send me a link to the mod with your changes.

Hi Cronos09,
I've just sent you a PM wth all the required stuff!
