lawl. That was hard

[Ferret]

could you show the basics of how to save a map (bin and ini files and what to do with them)? or show some tips to get some people started.

 

i've been confused with the bin and ini files and what to do with them as i mentioned before. i get the triggers part, but reading is not going to help me sense i have a hard time understanding things thus it would be great to have a video to show me. step by step. otherwise i know how to do everything else which i mentioned before. thanks.

What do you mean?

 

If you downloaded a map put the bin and ini file into your game folder

 

If you created a map save them as scgxxea (GDI) or scbxxea (Nod) and put them in your game folder

 

(xx is a number between 01 and 98, for your maps to appear on the new missions list they should be over 50)

ok, when i go to save my mission. it will let me save as a ini or a bin file... this is where i get confused at. do i save twice with the scgxxea, etc?

[Nyerguds]

For your maps to appear on the new missions list they should be larger than 19, not 50. The first one in the list is #20.

 

But of course the first ones are already used by the Covert Ops.

 

You normally find a place to save the ini, and it automatically writes the bin there too.

thank you all. makes sense now and i usually don't get things.
