Guest mrsanta172 Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 I notice it more with endless, its like 15 or 20 real time minutes. I know I have to change the parameters and I tried it, but when I save it, it just saves as a text document, how do I save it as a file that will make the changes without saving over the default parameters (i want to keep the original in case i ever want to go back) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Make a copy of the original file, open the original one, edit it, save, it will save to that to xml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronnie1223 Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 It won`t change back from "txt" or i don`t know how 2 *sob*i thought (but i don't know for sure) you have to choose save as and then type "em3.cfg" with the quotation marks and all that way it doesn't add .txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gamesfunk Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Go to DOS prompt (if XP => Run, type in cmd, and run), go to the folder (using the cd command) and typ in "dir /p", you can see the extensions of the files in that folder.i thought (but i don't know for sure) you have to choose save as and then type "em3.cfg" with the quotation marks and all that way it doesn't add .txt You're right, Ron. Type in "em3.cfg" at the fill-in of your savename, and you must include the quotation marks.G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crispy_Critterz Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 I never had this problem... Within 2-3 (game) minutes 3-5 things happen.... at least 1 of them is a gas explosion. At least one other is a Crazed rampage. I did not modify the game in any way, but it seems that everything happens at once...... strange.....~Crispy~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gamesfunk Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 If it's set to easy, then it's no fun..... ~Crispy~True, but if you don't want that many accidents to occur, it could be the difficulty settings. Another question then, have you changed any script or file? If so, which file?G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
