Hey all,
I've got a very simple question. How can i make a map in wich my edited .INI's work while I don't need to mod the entire game. So I can still play normall Generals, and then select the map wich will have the unit changes in it. I've seen this in an map before so i know it's possible.
Thanks for your help.

Edit: oh sorry i just see i posted this in the wrong place.

I know how to play unofficial maps. I want a map where my edited .ini files work on.

You will need to create a map.ini and put it in the folder of your map. Though it's similar to normal coding, there's still some difference between them, and I'm not good in map.ini, so I can't help you much here.
