No, the game requires a weapon to exist by the name "NukePayload". I guess it also has to be referenced by at least one unit or building. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
But in RA2, NukePayload isn't referenced on anything. Its only used as a DeathWeapon= on the Nancrt. Unless the game references the weapon that way, thenm I don't think NukePayload is the problem. _________________

That's how the weapon is added to a [WeaponTypes] list in the original game. If a TechnoType carries it in rules, as a weapon or deathweapon, it's automatically added to one. _________________ mentalomega.com QUICK_EDIT

Red alert 2 has encounterd an internal error
well nukepayload wasnt even referenced in the nuclear reactor, the deathweapon was NukeExplosion, if I reference nukepayload, i will get the error when nuclear reactor blows up.
Edit: Just looked at the attached rules.ini. The NukePayload weapon is not used by anything, thus it crashes as I said. Create a new unbuildable unit, add it to the VehicleTypes section and give it Primary=NukePayload. To be clear: Without doing that, the nuke will always crash.
Giving the NukePayload to a building, as DeathWeapon or Primary or whatever will not crash the game, because then the game will know that it also has to read the NukePayload weapon and thus it will become available to be used by the nuke.
You got all the information needed to fix this already. Can't help you any further. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
For future reference, the way the internet works with questions and answers is thus:
1. Google it, hopefully someone had the problem before and either solved it themselves and documented the solution or someone else provided one.
2. If you can't find an existing answer, ask your question on a n appropriate forum and wait. If someone reads your post, knows the answer and is willing to post replies on a forum, they will post the answer as best they understand it.
3. Until an answer appears, assume no one knows the answer and actively work to discover the problem yourself and fix it. Do not post another question asking when the first will be answered, that is valuable time you could be using trying to work out the answer yourself.
4. In the event that you have to follow 3 and solve your problem or otherwise become able to answer the original question, post your solution as a reply to your original topic for the benefit of future users who can stop at step 1. DO NOT edit your original post to say "n/m, fixed it"! QUICK_EDIT
