Seems like your SDK is a lil' bit fucked up. I'd recommend trying to re-install it.

Regardless, you might want to try this mod.xml instead:

<?xml version=&#34;1.0&#34; encoding=&#34;UTF-8&#34;?>
<AssetDeclaration xmlns=&#34;uri&#58;ea.com&#58;eala&#58;asset&#34; xmlns&#58;xsi=&#34;http&#58;//www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance&#34;>

<Include type=&#34;reference&#34; source=&#34;DATA&#58;audio.xml&#34; />

no big file? i checked all the arrows

Uhm.... "C:\Users\Shah\Documents\Red Alert 3\Mods\Apocmod\Apocmod.big" - the first line.

[Golan]

If your mod isn't built correctly, the built files naturally are also broken/inexistent.

[AZZKIKR]

it's one kb. i scanned thru all files. nothing seems wrong

[Golan]

Well then everything's fine.

[AZZKIKR]

but the mod still doesn't seem to work. Golan, would it be better if i posted the files?

[Golan]

Stupid me, should have looked at the error report...
For whatever reason, you seem to have modified an XInclude pointing to apocmod\Includes\SovietCrushUpgradePlayerPower.xml which does however not exist. Revert the include path back to the default file in SageXML or add the file to that folder.

Special cookies to Lauren for pointing out a similar error BTW.

[AZZKIKR]

now i put that xml in an includes folder in my mod folder. adjusted the mod xml. still it says not found

Wait, you included an XInclude file in your mod.xml?

[AZZKIKR]

ya. i must not?

[Golan]

Yah. XIncludes aren't complete GameAssets.

[AZZKIKR]

alrite. i made an includes folder in my data folder, with the sovietcrushthingy xml in it.

no errors but strangely the results differ, yesterday it said the soviet crush thing xml cannot be found. today it's

I had the same problem. The compiled failed as well.

Revert back to what you normally did before you copied the includes folder.

If you look at the mod builder screen you can see which file was being compiled last. Copy "SovietCrushUpgradePlayerPower" by highlighting it and hitting ctrl + c in the mod builder log. Now look for it in the file it last stopped compiling it. I use word pad to edit the xml files so I would hit ctrl+f to find "SovietCrushUpgradePlayerPower". It will come up as a line of code under behaviors as :

<xi:include
href="../../Includes/SovietCrushUpgradePlayerPower.xml" />

Change the path to DATA:Includes/SovietCrushUpgradePlayerPower.xml and it should work.

You will likely have to repeat this process as you'll likely find the same screwed up file paths in other xml documents. Just keep chaning the "../../" to DATA:Includes.
