Yeah Corsix's mod tools are waay easier (sets the files up for you ). If you have DC and you want to mod that and you have Corsix's tools then go here:

I'm in the process of learning but the main computer is being a piece of crap.

Well, I kind of got the Feel for it early on, thou going on to edit weapons and such is confusing at the point when you first get it. its better to first do things like mess with cap and unit formations.

Oh, Thats a simply one. Go into the Weapons folder. Find the weapon you want to change, go to Area_effect_ext into armour_damage and change the min and the max to what you want.
