My GLA ini mod won't work..

pabtyf3 · 02-17-2005, 07:46 AM

Hi, I've been trying to change things such as build cost and build time for the GLA. I used Tibed to change the values (i've been creating easy mods for my son e.g. reduced build time and build costs of the sides.) I got the american, and chinese ones to work fine with modlauncher. but..
The GLA one will not work, the values stay the same in game, I've checked the ini's inside the big file created by tibed, the values are changed in there, I've even tried exporting the ini's to the data\ini folder and deleting my ini.big, but they WILL NOT change.

Any ideas why? I can't seem to find what would be overwriting my changes.

do you have a data/ini folder in ur game directory? If so, look in there, and if there are inifiles in there u want to change in tibedit, remove them from the folder

yes I did delete the data\ini folder and just use the ini.big file. and also tried it the other way around.

It's driving me mad!

I only have CnC Generals. (not zero hour) is that file still in there, i couldn't see it.

The modlauncher comes with tibed I think. get it from
http://www.tibed.net

The only other thing I can think of is if you have annother .Big with conflicing ini's. You should only have Audio.big, AudioEnglish.big, English.big, INI.big, Maps.big, Music.big, Patch.big (if u patched generals), Shaders.big, Speech.big, SpeechEnglish.big, Terrain.big, Textures.big, W3D.big, Window.big and POSSIBLY (I'm not sure) gensec.big (it may be from an old mod, or patch or somthing, but its in my gens folder, and I have no mods installed)

Fixed it. I deleted everything from the mod folder except the three individual big's (I had some ini's in there too). I guess it must've been picking them up for some reason.

Thanks for your help.

Oh and btw I've got that gensec.big too, i think it's meant to be there.
