It's kinda complicated.  Luckily (and a few others, mainly z3r0x) have created mods that add some of these disabled units into the game.  Look at List of Hidden Stuff for a lsit of things, and links to mod downloads.

read it, helpful but not what I need

[FleetAdmiral AK]

Just do what cain said then just chance the tech requirenment!

[Hymster]

If you'd read the thread you'd know I don't know what that is

[Eesu Oyod]

It's a line in the XML files that tells the game at what Tech Level the unit becomes available. For example, Red Squadron (Luke Skywalker) isn't available until Tech Level 5 (which is when you can build level 5 space stations, after you steal plans for the Speeder, MonCal Cruiser, and one other thing I can't recall right now for the Rebels; researching up to level 5 for the Empire). Units can be disabled by requiring a Tech Level that can't be achieved in the game (99). Find the line and change it to a value between 0 and 5.

The tech level is just somewhere in the pile of XMLs?And what tools do I need?

[FleetAdmiral AK]

I simply use CONTEXT for xmls if anyone has a better tool then please put a link in.

I use cooktop because it's free...but it sucks.

 

You don't NEED any special tools, you can edit the files with notepad and even with cooktop I still view them in Internet Explorer.
