This has happened to me twice now.

I try to make a new mech and I selecte, say a S Cat. The name that pops up, and the graphic displayed is of a Sunder.

If I click to the weapons tab, there is the S. Cat with the correct slots.

I can configure and save and the variant will be saved under the Sunder name, even though it is a S. Cat is I select it for play.

Clear out all your varients then add them back one at a time

This was a problem that often popped up with Vengence/BK. But ti's the 1st time i've heard it in Mercs. I think it's caused by a corrupt varient file

Absolutely Exactly as Beaker said. It is a bad variant causing that problem.

You've got a variant in there (and it might even have been downloaded from us) that has a filename the game can't recognize correctly. That pushes the whole list out of order and screws everything up.

Yet more spam!

Thanks for your help.

I will root out the errant file. If it came from the zip of the mech variants I downloaded from here, who should I inform?

just e-mail metawl@teambanzai.net

Not liek he doesn't have enough to do already

Well, it is definately one of the mech from the pack from what I can see. I removed all of them first and the problem seems to have vanished.

I will track down the exact variant and then sned an email.

Thanks again

As best I can tell the problem is with the Mad Cat II variants. If I remove them the problem is gone and stays gone.

@#$@#$ Mad Cats...crappy variants, never litter box trained...think they own the house...

Happens to me too from time to time.
