cp5 = CommandPost:New{name = "CP"}
It should look like this
cp5 = CommandPost:New{name = "cp5"}

conquest:AddCommandPost(CP)
It should look like this
conquest:AddCommandPost(cp5)

What are you trying to export and what doesn't work? Need to be specific.

The skin doesnt work? GIMP? The LUA?

I took the rep_inf_ep3trooper.tga and opened it in GIMP. when i was done i went to save as and it wanted me to save the skin as a rep_inf_ep3trooper.xcf. I changed the xcf to a tga but GIMP said i had to switch over to export it. I did, over wrote the old skin, munged the side, and added the dc to
Spoiler:
now whenever i load up my map it crashes. and i don't get any warnings or errors when i'm done munging.

With the way Gimp is set up now I think it'd be better to just use the "Export As" button as a short  alternative to save it as a .tga. Also your .tga is called rep_inf_ep3trooper but your unit in your LUA is called rep_inf_rifleman. Wouldn't it be rep_inf_ep3rifleman if you're editing the stock ep3trooper? Unless that is something else then just forget I said that...

What tutorial did you use for custom sides? And as far as I know yeah you need to have the dc: there to get custom sides to work. Could you post your BFront2 Log so we can see if there are any errors that are causing this crash?

You only need dc: if your doing a custom map that uses a custom side. But if your wanting to replace the default stock REP side with your custom rep side, then you dont need to add dc:

As anything renamed not of the stock will crash your game.

And assets you use of anyone modder would need permission if they didnt do a public released asset and also you would need to credit them. Unless in there release assets readme states otherwise.

TheSWBFIII would be his Youtube Channel name and his Gametoast name is Redline. So that would be one person I believe.
