Hi, you should not add extra data to Megapack or the MegaGlest program directory. Instead, work in the directory which contains user specific data ("UserDataRoot"). There, you can either create a copy of Megapack and add to that or just create a new techtree which only includes your new factions. Since Windows users have often trouble identifying and accessing the UserDataRoot directory (because Windows uses a complex and, by default, partially hidden location there), our Installers do, since MegaGlest 3.5.2, add a start menu shortcut to make accessing this directory easier.

The errors you are showing in the last screenshot are caused by bugs in the XML files of the factions you added. You should ask the modder who developed them for help about this. If you prefer to look into this yourself you can use the --validate... command line options to megaglest.exe to get more information on what is going wrong there.

It seems to me you copied all the techtrees into megapack. You cannot do this! Each techtree (which has its own xml, resources and upgrades) needs to go into its own properly names techtree folder. You can however copy individual factions into the factions folder of megapack IF they are 100% compatible with the resources and upgrades of megapack.

Thanks

Problem solved, I modified the megapack.XML. I added all the armor and other things, now all the factions run perfectly. I've got 28 factions in one tech tree to choose
A last doubt, where can i download other packs and factions?

Thanks!!

I do hope that you kept a copy of the original, unmodified MegaPack though too, as you will not be able to play multiplayer with your edited version (not to mention all the balance problems).

i've not any more doubts at this moment

Just a side mention that I think the word you are looking for is "question", not "doubt".

I'm not used to play multiplayer, but i will download the original megapack and when i want to play multiplayer, i will replace the modified megapack with the original one.
Thanks for the info!!
