Alright I understand notepad and how to open a file. I'm not a neanderthal. It's just the file I have that is labeled "spawn.xdp" Will not open, the error report is as follows...
"Adobe reader could not open "spawn.xdp" because it is either not a supported file type or the file has been damaged"
I also know how to use the "open with.." option, but that does not give me any other option than to open with adobe reader.
Alright I've got everything you guys have said. Appreciate the help so much. One last thing, spawn.xdp is saying it cannot open because the file is not supported or it is damaged.. It only gives me the option to open it with adobe.. Any last pieces of advice?
I apologize. I honestly feel pretty lost when it comes to these forums. If I can figure out how to work this I can assure you I won't be screwing up the organization here. I can only imagine how annoying that is. I have, spawn.ini, spawnmap.ini, spawn1.mix, and two "spawn" .pdf.....
I've made all the appropriate adjustments to the rules itself so it should work. The rules file just isn't over riding the in game stats.. I don't understand why.
Alright, Please forgive me I'm brand new to this forum. I downloaded RA1 a while back and adjusted the rules.ini file to my liking... Since then my computer crashed and I lost everything. Now I've downloaded RA again and tried to alter the rules but it's not working anymore. As noobish as this sounds could anyone give me a quick walk through so I can find out what I'm doing wrong. Right now I've done this..
> Made Grenadiers allies,soviet (Just so I could see if the changes were taking effect)
> Moved to red alert file
Once again I apologize for the noobness this is just really frustrating me.
