PaD Wrote:BTW, I dunno if it was mentioned here or tried yet, what GUI is used when Side=FourthSide and sidec04.mix doesn't exist?i don't think i actually said it, but it causes an IE. setting side to GDI or Nod if you want soviets is what i had to do before i extracted sidec01 and renamed to sidec04

c23_flag.pcx, c23_ls.shp, c23_ls.pal
are all perfectly good filenames.
its not "neccessary" but would be usefull. i sugested it beause from what PD told me, it would be doable with minimum effort.
(this was his reply when i asked about adding tags for 4th side stuff)
"well it's easy to make the game read them... ...but hard to find out where to store the data so it works correctly"
and since he's writing in to look for a spacific file(he already knows where he wants the data to be stored), getting the filename from a tag wouldn't be that much more work.
