????????? W H A A A A A T ??????????


Sorry, but i really don't understand what you wanna do.

Assuming that you want to create a "description.ext" file,
to enable "respawn" in multiplayer, i suggest you to go
to the multiplayer editing section in this forum, and watch
out for the thread called: "respawning"

Or even better, directly access it by a left-click on the link
below:

No offense meant here, but if you don't understand the basic concept of renaming a file then I don't know how anyone can help you.

I don't think anyone knows exactly what you're trying to tell us.

Guys & Gals,

What he means is that he has the "Hide extensions for known filetypes" turned on.
So when he renames the text file "respawn" to "respawn.sqs", the end result shows as "respawn.sqs" on the screen, but windows sees it as "respawn.sqs.txt" and opens it as a normal text file.

Confused yet? ;)

Nut,

For WinXP:
- Go to any normal folder window (C: is fine).
  - Click on Tools
    - then Folder Options
      - Go to View
        - find the tickbox "Hide extensions for known filetypes"
          - Untick it

Now you should see all file extensions, and when you rename this time, it will do it correctly now.

Enjoy! :)
