HOWEVER after modding those perameters, putting the ini file into local.mix and saving it, local.mix bak into ra2.mix (yes I deleted the other local.mix that remains in the editor and replaced it with my own which contains my color modded rules.ini file ONLY as a change)running the game, and going online, I get the "game versions incompatible" crap when I try to join a game. anyone know a way around this? this modding is supposed to affect ME souly and no one else since it is only graphic editing......

hm...interesting.........ill look into that patch.mix.......
