changing a map from Yuri to RA

[Renegade]

Of course dropping the md would make them be loaded by RA2 - but the fact that RA2 tries to load them does not automatically mean that that's a good idea!
For example, I can perfectly fine install a 250 watt power supply unit into a 2008 computer - the connectors and standards are all the same, there would be no problem. But that doesn't change that, very most likely, the newer computer would need something like 500+ watts, and only giving it half of that (or making it use the PSU at 200% capacity) would be a very fucking bad idea.

YR's rules are designed for the Yuri's Revenge engine. A fifth of the stuff in there either doesn't exist in RA2, or was altered since then. How did you think RA2 would handle things like the entire side of Yuri, or Battle Fortresses?

Independent from that, I still don't see what all of this has to do with the recorder. As far as I know, recording the game works just fine in YR, and is no different from RA2. If it doesn't, that's news to me, and somebody should update ModEnc.

If you want to convert your stuff for RA2, do the following:

1. For the map, you'll have to load it in FA2 and save it as a RA2 map, carefully removing everything that doesn't exist in RA2. Since I haven't mapped in a long time, I can't give you the exact steps.
   
2. For the mod, get a decent text editor (e.g. TextPad 4) or the GNU Win32 diff binaries, and create a diff between the original, virgin YR 1.001 files and your modded files.
   
3. Filter everything out that is not applicable to RA2.
   
4. You will then have a list of all changes you did to the game that can be done to RA2. Just apply these changes to the RA2 1.006 inis, and you should be fine. (Provided you placed your graphics correctly.)

In addition, please do not imply you were suspended for 6 months. That is a gross misstatement of the facts. You were suspended for 1 day, the warning will just stay on your record for 6 months. In addition to that, take note that evasion of punishment very much is also a warnable offense, and that I am just not handing out another warning because I lowered your warning level afterwards, and the suspension doesn't apply anymore (which is also why I would have removed it already, had I not had to reply to this first).
