Thats where you messed up. If you change ANYTHING from a preset you have to create a temp of it no matter what. Renegade ignores any changes to the default presets when in a MIX format as it uses it own copy of the file to override any settings. However the temps are sotred in a file that is read from the MIX so you can temp as much as you want and it will read them. For things such as purchase settings, add a temp preset with the same name under the original and it will override any settings. Basically you can change whatever you want just remember that if it's not a temp then it will be ignored by the game in a MIX file.

Oh, it's *just* with those additions... Yeah, right. Might do you some good to actually read up on something before going "It's just this and that because that's all I see." :rolleyes:

=====Renegade Map Readme======
===============================
Map Name: C&C_City_Flying_Exp.mix | Version 1.1
Creator: Eric Kearns, modified by Aircraftkiller
Email: aircraftkiller@cncrenegade.info
Theatre: A city, obviously
Description: The first map fitted for online flying. THe map was originally designed to be a flight enabled map, which Eric had started on about two years ago. Last year, Devinoch, aka Cliff Hicks, announced that Helicopter Pads would not appear in any of the flying maps. I went ahead and put in what was supposed to be in... The Helicopter Pads. They repair airborne units if you land on them.
Changes to units:
All Rocket Soldier\Gunner units fire homing missiles now. They're the replacement Havoc soldiers for anti-aircraft fire.
MRLS has a turret and fires better homing missiles which seek better and travel faster, being GDI's mobile anti-aircraft unit. Its price was increased to around $800 to compensate.
The Artillery's price was increased to $600.
The Mammoth Tank can hit airborne units with missiles now. It still costs $1,500 and has the cannon\missile improvements shown in Bunkers.
The Recon Bike was added, being Nod's mobile anti-aircraft vehicle.
The Transport Helicopters have a different start-up\shut-down\idle sound.
The Apaches\Orcas have their original missile firing sounds, and a new machine gun sound.
Sniper units do 20% of the damage they once did to aircraft.

Yeah thats right, the animations for the MRLS turret were already added before, like a lot of other vehicles. When they were put into the game all the vehiles has loads of bones but only the main ones were used, there was a lot of unused ones still on them, the agregate bones for vehicles were not used and also the lights that were meant to appear on them. but in the case of the MRLS all you need to do is make the turret have a 360 degree rotation angle, and also the turret rotation speed can be adjusted. I know the light bones on vehicles can be used and as far as I know the agregates should work, these were explained in a post by Blazer once. The last things i mentioned have to be done in RenX though as you would need to add damage textures or emitters in the W3D file.
