Hello!

Recently, I've been attempting to import an original weapon - an original mesh with animations, with a 1rst person and attachment class, derived from the ShockRifle. Nothing too fancy, really. And it worked! The first time I did it.

Its a long story, but I ended up deleting the successful weapon, and recreating it from scratch. About 5 times now, and it refuses to work again - that is to say, the code compiles with 13 warnings, and the mesh does not show up in game. I don't believe I've done anything differently, and yet I must be...

Most of the warnings refer to "Invalid Property value in defaults" and "unresolved references" to my meshes and animation set.

I've already done a search of various forums for this warning message, and the primary advice is: make sure your package is where it ought to be.

But it is (I think):

UTGame/Unpublished/CookedPC/CustomWeapons/blunder_pack.upk

The uc files are located in:

UTGame/Src/Blunderbuss/Classes

This is an example of the code that references the mesh and anim sets:

Code:
 Begin Object Name=FirstPersonMesh
	SkeletalMesh=SkeletalMesh'blunder_pack.blunder_mesh'
	AnimSets(0)=AnimSet'blunder_pack.blunder_set'
	Animations=MeshSequenceA
	Rotation=(Yaw=-16384)
	FOV=60.0
End Object

Any ideas?
Let me know if you need any additional information.

Ok, well, I think I solved my problem!

I thought I had already tried this a couple times, but... I guess I did it a little differently this time.

Before compiling, I copied my CustomWeapons folder to Published>CookedPC>

but! I didn't copy the Script file over at the same time!

Seems to have done the trick. The compile went smoothly. I'll copy the script files over now.
