[RA1]Creating Single Player Missions
Subject description: Wanting to create (or replace) Singeplayer Missions in RA1
Hello there. First of, I know this is the RA2 Forum, but i think it is the most fitting for my regards.
(You can jump after this little story if you don't want to read that much xD )
----
I'm creating a kind of Mod for Red Alert 1. Thanks to Ugo and his nice VQA-Creating-Tool, and Nyerguds and his problems regarding VQA Videos I was able to create my own Videos (replacing the original Videos)
I know how to edit stuff in the rules.ini since I first played the game. It was so fun and relatively easy.
There's also much help provided here in creating and adding own Voxel Arts to the game.
----
Now here is my question.
How do I modify/create Singleplayer Missions in Red Alert 1?
Is there simply an Ini File connectet to a multiplayermap with scripts and so on?
Also, is there any kind of editor available for making things a little bit more easier?
I'm using the TFD Version of the game with Unofficial 1.03 Patch applied.
Could anyone say me where the Singleplayer Maps/Scripts/whatever are hidden? In which mix file are they? What are the file names?
I found the Counterstrike and Aftermath Missions so far.
But I'm not really sure where the standard Missions are stored.
I'm very thankful for any kind of help.
Best wishes, Maggifixxx
EDIT:
So, I took a look at some custom Missions I found on the internet.
I found the Mission Files.
It looks like the MPR Files from EDWIN.exe and the Mission Files are pretty similar.
Both share some information. Of corse, the Mission file has some more.
Is there some kind of documentation out there?
EDIT2:
Okay I found an Editor for singleplayer missions.
This one is pretty good in helping me with the placing of buildings and Units. I still have my problem with the Scripting Part (Waypoints, Triggers and so on). If anyone knows some good reference or documentation it would be really cool. QUICK_EDIT
