sigget Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 You should be able to rename bases, but you'll have to change it in alot of places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoBra Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 But, when i change the cordenates, the game show me an error msg... how can i know the right place, any program do this for me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigget Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 if you're gonna move bases its my guess you'll have to update the borders aswell. and you cannot just edit your savegame, you'll have to get into gamedata.vfs and change it there, if you just want to change the name of a base then edit localization.vfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoBra Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 wow, how can i edit gamedata.vfs(have 1,15gb) it don't open with notepad and word.... any program open? (and where is localization.vfs, i just found LocalizationPack.vfs and launcher.vfs and the two are encrypted) ??? And tanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigget Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Oh right, localizationPack.vfs it is, the vfs files are giant archives, they're not encrypted but compressed. If you look in the mods section of this site, or follow the link in my signature below you'll find tools that help extract and reassemble these archives.

YoBra Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 well, i see the vfstool, in gamedata.vfs have many things compressed, what i have to do for change the location? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sigget Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 When you've extracted the contents of gamedata.vfs you'll just have to experiment, i dont think anyone has done what you want before. Copy the files you need to change to a new directory (use the same directory structure) and edit them there. Then use vfstool to import your modified files. Oh, And make backups of everything. Perhaps its easier to make alpine plugins, i dont know. Have look in the mods forum aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoBra Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 I tried, i did all you told me, but, i don't know how configurate the cordenates, and when i try play, the msg erro show again...well, if you can help-me more i will tank youif not, tanks a lot anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aralez Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Hm, just a thought maybe you could simply use a base nearby (keep it's coordinates, though)and change it's name in the savegamefile. This wouldn't be perfect, but could eventuallywork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deejax Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 To change the starting position you have to edit one of the baseownership files ('baseownership.txt' for USA, 'baseownership_as.txt' for asian and 'baseownership_eu.txt' for the european start positions.) In these files all bases are listed with a "H" for bases in your posession and "A" for bases not in your posession. I have not yet found out how to set one of your starting bases as a engineering base. When I changed the starting location all the bases were military. (in stead of one engineering and one military) It is also possible to add a new base (via 'listofbase.txt'), but then you have to change the borders as well ('bordersdata60.txt' = lot of work) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
