Title: Editting .tbls?
Post by: Zeon on December 19, 2003, 04:18:34 am
I forgot how to edit the .tbl to add or lose some ships. How can I do this again? Please help. I'm working on a mission and I need to add a station. And does anyone know if the GTDn Archangel is ready to download, I went to the model section and the entry is there but no link to download it.

Just open up the table with any text editor. Personally, I prefer notepad.

For the Archangel, visit Stratcomm's website.  If that doesn't work, PM me and I'll send it to you.

Wordpad, as it has more editing gubbinz than Notepad and can handle bigger files that Notepad can't (though possibly I imagined that last one)

Notepad's easy for quick and dirty stuff. Besides, most of the tables I work with don't get big enough to choke notepad, so that's good enough for me.

Notepad's limits were upped in win2k IIRC, so I use it for most all editting.
