That is a ini file. It goes into the folder of a unit (it MUST have the same name as the unit's folder) and tells the computer what animations and sounds to play in-game for the unit.

Try to write down the exact error message, that makes it easier

The unit folder should look like this:
UNITNAME/UNITNAME.ini
The names of the .ini file and the folder where it is in have to be EXACTLY the same
