Urgent message to Sun Tzu and Smash!!!

[Squirrel2004]

Ok, I'm working on this new scenario on 'Nam. It's pretty cool. I'm almost done with the units and everything else in the Rules.txt file. I wanted to take a break from working vigorously, so I said the game I was constructing. I went to play a new game, not a scenario, just a "New Game". So I started it up, made my first city, went to the city screen and... ahhhhh!!!! All the units were the same as my 'Nam units and the improvements were the same, too, but they had the grphics of the real units from the actual game(i.e. the unit Thai Enlist had the graphic of a Partisan, which is what was replaced by Thai Enlist in 'Nam). I exited the game and took a look at the Rules.txt file in the Civ2 MGE folder. Everything was okay, except the Units, Improvement and Wonders. I don't know what the hell happened. I was wondering if you have any clue what to do. If I have to, I'll rewrite Rules.txt, but I want to know why that happened. Uninstalling the game would be my last resort, because I don't want to lose my games and scenarios. Please help me!

well....um....maybe when you were making your scenario you overwrote or replaced the originals instead of making seperate ones and putting them in your Nam scenario folder?

 

[Squirrel2004]

Yeah, but I still need a Rules.txt file. Right now I'm looking for another Rules.txt in a scenario thats the same to replace.

Squirrel2004 -

Go to Power Archiver and download their free .zip file engine. It works just as well as WinZip at unziping files.

I put a rules.txt (non zip) from MGE in the original thread in Problems

...but I still need a Rules.txt file.

Can't you get the "rules.txt" off your CD?
If you can't get it otherwise, I'll be happy to supply you with the lost file. Which version of Civ are you using? I can help you if you have the classic or MGE version. Just send me a mail, and I'll be happy to help out.

Thanks, but I was bored today, so I used my poster that came with it and rewrote all the messed up things (It was only the units). All is well in the Squirrel's household! Happy Father's day to all!
