Help!! when i first go into sapien, i click edit types and try to add in my actor varients. but everytime i pick my actor varient, it says it couldnt place all the tags i added on the clipboard and that i picked a tag that is missing a few things. how do i fix this?

1. Are your actor varient tags in your tags folder?

2. If you're missing a few things, either:
-Extract them from maps that have it using HEK+
-Make your own using Geurilla
-Duplicate tags that you think are similar (put them into the right folder, or they won't work)

What does your debug.txt say?

the last few lines are:

I think those are the CMT brutes that were released, but what is that junk after it?

They're probably corrupted. Re-download them.

You probably put them in the wrong place. When you download it, there's a CMT folder. Put the entire CMT folder inside the tags folder.

i did put them into the tag folder but it says the same but i'll follow the other guys advice and redownload them

You fix those files in guerilla then it will work :)

Where exactly did you put the CMT folder? Give me the exact directory. Also, for the first error, you were missing tags. Extract them through HEK+
