Welcome to the Red Alert 3 Editing Forum!

Hello everyone!

Welcome to the Red Alert 3 Editing Forums! This forum is the place you have to ask modding help, post your modding doubts and discuss new techniques to bypass the hardcoded limits of the game and recruit members for your mod. Use the Mod Announcements to tease and gather fans for your mod.

For those who are starting to mod the game, we recommend the following tools:

-> NotePad++: This advanced text editor edits everything, including XML files. It includes several features to make text editing much easier and it's totally free.

-> OS BIG Editor: This tool is useful to browse the .big files from the game. Recent versions available at the SVN allow you to save .BIG files with refpack compression as well. Note that they are still under development and on testing stages, which means that they aren't as stable as the released ones. To find out how to download it from the SVN, check the PPM FAQ.

-> Bin Opener: This tool allows you to extract some resources from .bin/.relo/.manifest/.rel files.

-> SDK Extras: This set of tools also allows you to extract, convert and do a lot of things with many file formats of the game.

-> Red Alert 3 World Builder: This is the tool to create maps.

Remember that we hold no responsibility for these tools. Use them at your own risk.

Anyway, start your engines and have fun!

I guess I'll be using pen, paper, ink and paint to work on RA3 mods, but hey... #Tongue
