I have started editing 00allstars.big to try and make the game have more upgrades for the Red Alert Alliance.(Since the they have 3 and 4 less than the others.) In this case it was to add another upgrade to the Frag Ordnance and increase the explosion radius by a further 25%. I have edited redinfantry.ini, upgrade.ini and weapon.ini. The game now comes up with a serious error every time i try to launch it now. What do i need to do to get it to work? (I am not using a different cameo with this upgrade but i can if necessary).

Try running WorldBuilder and read the error message that pops up. It usually has a clue on what you did wrong.

Adding an upgrade would also require a new command button with the upgrade and a new command set with the upgrade. Maybe you could take a look at the china mines. It is similar to what you are trying to do.

Yes Worldbuilder and adding the command buttons have fixed the problem. Thanks!!! Are you allowed to release a further edited verion of allstars.big? To change the camera zoom in game go into 00allstars.big\gamedata.ini then search for this CameraHeight = 232.0 MaxCameraHeight = 310.0 MinCameraHeight = 120.0 You can then change them to your liking but if you zoom out too far the title screen goes a bit strange but it doesn't affect gameplay.
