what do you mean by a cross era tutorial? An cross era is just another era mod but only with the cross era opponent instead of the default one. You may run into trouble with the sounds, but nothing that can't be fixes once you are at this point :D

Well, I tried to just replace the CIS with Rebels and it worked, from a certain point of view.. the Rebels were ingame vs the Republic. But there were no command posts and just black background. Like you make your own map and doesnt add command posts. If you know what I mean.

The map I tried was Coruscant

Basically, you should replace every "cis" with "all" in you lua, from the team set up, to the units, sounds....

Search for CIS\cis and replace it ALL\all, munge the files and see what happens.

Also, posting the lua and munge log would be helpful. ;)

I managed to kitbash an empire vs CIS map by just dumping alot of the effects,msh,munged, and odf files from the cis to the rebels side and re-scripting the units. Only issues i have are that i'm stuck with the rebel announcer and that i had to switch the droid sound effects for the rebel ones
