    Default Troubleshooting a broken unit

    I don't know what happened (since I haven't fiddled around with the units in question for about a month), and whenever I try to start a custom battle with Musketeers, Janissary Musketeers and Cossack Musketeers, the game CTD with a " Uh oh. This isn't good. No idea why, but exiting now. Sorry pal." message. Now to find the problem, I went through the following steps:

    -verify that there is no problem with the EDU file, and there is none (by looking at backup file)
    -verify that there is no problem with the modeldb file (all mesh and texture files are correct, and I cannot find any spacing or syntax errors)
    -verify that there is no problem with descr_projectiles (by replacing modified file with vanilla backup

    Are there any other files that would be specific to musketeers, gunpowder units or musket_bullet besides the three above (that I might have corrupted or accidentally deleted)? These are the only three units that are broken, and it is more than coincidental that it is the three musketeer units.

    Verify that the skeleton/animations set they use exists. Look at them in battle_models then make sure they're set to use stuff that is properly listed in descr_skeleton.

    I never even thought of that. And it turns out that is where the problem was located. Thanks!
