I thought it would be cool to try modding, and figured this would be a good game to do it on, so I read that Modding Tutorial III. Then downloaded all the files needed(WinMPQ, DatEdit, MPQDraft). I feel stupid for asking this, but DatEdit is a .rar file, in the tutorial it simply says to run DatEdit, but I cant, because its a .rar file I guess, so do I need somthing that will run the .rar file or what?

.rar files are similar to .zip folders in that they are a compressed folder. You'll need a program like WinRAR or 7zip to 'unpackage' it. Good luck with your modding!

lol, you may want to google Winzip, or WinRar

ok, now i have another problem. DatEdit now works fine, thnx for the help. Now for WinMPQ, it says on one of its read me's, that i need Visual Basic 4 to use it, do I really have to go through all this, is there somthing else to use. Im looking for it right now though, if you know where to get it, post a link.

Its all on ShadowFlares homepage, here.

thnx, got it now. when I tried goin to that website before, it wouldnt come up, but it works now.

umm..... i just found out that i dont have fly to target on DatEdit. I have fly & dont follow target though. Well, wats up with that?

Eh? You mean the option isn't there in Weapons.dat? What version of DatEdit do you have?

You have an old version of DatEdit.

I'd use these programs rather than the one's in the dldb: PyMS

I got 1.5, and yes, the option just isnt there.

there are two fly to targets, try both of them
