your welcome. i found in Wikipedia, :
"Red Alert 2 is a popular game for modding. Hidden within the ra2.mix
(ra2.mix\local.mix\rule*.ini) is a configuration file called rules.ini.
This
file can be extracted using a tool called the XCC mixer and edited after
extraction. The rules.ini is constructed in such a way that it is very
easy
to modify; no programming skills are required. There are tags which refer
to
the strength of a unit, such as its hit points, which can be modified with
the program."
i beleive the XCC mixer can be used for C&C original.
here is the 'readme" from the version i have:
"This is the MIX manager for C&C: Tiberian Sun. It also works for C&C:
Tiberium Dawn and C&C: Red Alert and all expansion packs. It let's you
view
the contents of all MIX files and let's you extract any file you want.
An installation is not required. However, this program places some keys in
the registry.
If you've got a question about this program, please visit the XCC Home
Page
and post a message in the forum.
If you've encountered a bug or would like to give your opinion about this
program, feel free to e-mail me.
