I've just got AB2, but I'm not new to Army Builder, but I need some
help with the creater, I've read the tutorial, but that just didn't
help, what I'm trying to do is create a add-in file for a land raider
varient, the Promethiese (speeling) from Forge world, it's got 4
twin linked heavy bolters on EACH sponson, and no other weapons, but
it does have some extra sensory equipment, I was wondering if
anyone else had allready created such a file, or if not, could they
help me to do it?

Thanks in advance,
Marc.

Did you just read it, or did you do it as well?

I just read it, but even so, I couldn't find anything relating to creating a
new vehicle.

It's not specific to 40k, but it does teach you the basics of doing
stuff with Army Builder. Once you've done it, you should have a general
idea of how AB works and stuff.

You definitely need to go through - not just read - the Tutorial. As Colen
pointed out, it gives you a basic understanding of all of the fundamental
facets of data file construction. AFTER you've done the Tutorial, the next
step is to familiarize yourself with the current 40K files. This will
enable you to identify the best way to integrate your new vehicle within
the existing 40K data files, leveraging all of the mechanisms and options
that Colen has already put into place. I'm certain that Colen (and probably
a few others) would be happy to answer questions about the nuances of the
40K files, but their patience will be short if you are asking questions
that are covered in the Tutorial. :-) Then, using some of the existing
vehicles in the 40K files as an example, you can create your new vehicle
and setup the options and items appropriately for it.

Of all the data files in existence, the 40K files are definitely the most
complex (IMHO). This is due to the vast complexities involved in creating
rosters for 40K, plus the files were initially written with older versions
of AB and weren't able to take advantage of the new features in many
places. You will definitely need to come up to speed before you can
reasonably expect to make changes/additions and have them work readily. :-)

Good luck, and let us know if you run into questions about things after
going through the Tutorial....

Thanks, Rob
