For a little mod of mine I need to know how to change YR's version number. (the 1.001 in the bottom right corner of the menu) I would like to change it to the version number of my mod, any help would be great!

I dunno if its like TS, but if it is, its hardcoded into the executable.

I've seen it done, I think it might be in the string file, although it's been a while since I looked at RA2.

Its hardcoded, but hex editing can change it... might even be the language dll, cant remember. String file can only change whats infront of the number eg "Version".

well an example is all good in all as long as you tell people what you edited specifically.

Ah see, dont really mod YR, seems it is controlled by the CSF

It's just a little example. and will be better to use a CSF without making changes in EXE files.

Not the text in front, the number.

That is hardcoded unless you got hex editor, etc.

Lol. Tip: you didn't change the original version number, you just pushed it off-screen.
