  Alright Specy, I'll answer ya.

     Usually in Death-Match to make everyone hate each-other (Typical Family Dinner Scene) you use the command "AddRating -80000000000000000000000000". BUT, since your doing it in two teams, that makes it all that harder.

      Well, main idea would to have one Team on the West Side, and one Team on the East Side, so that they do fire at each-other.

    So, how do you change it? Right now, I'm gonna go find the Unofficial Command Reference....

    Ahh, found it!

     Now, what you want to do is go to your Mission.SQM, and convert it to Mission.TXT. I'd advise you to make a back-up copy, if I'm wrong....MUAHAHHAHA! (Seriously, copy Mission.SQM and put it in your Missions folder).

     Now, open up Mission.TXT, and find the units you want to change to West. IN-Otherwords, the 10 Apaches. So, find the first one. Look for the Label that says SIDE: "West". Change "West" to "East". Ain't nothing finer and simpler than that. Not sure it'd work tought, I bet your glad you made that back-up copy.

     After that, change the rest of the 4 Apaches to East. Walla, instant battle between West VS West. The Pilots are still West, and their Chopppers. The only thing that changed, was a little team spirit, and their Side.

       There is also another ALTERNATIVE way.

        Go on up to the WayPointes command, select your first chopper, double click on another. On the WAYPOINT TYPE selection menu, select the Waypoint called DESTROY. Select your next helicopter, do the same thing to all the Opposing Team Heli's. Now, select oneo f the opposing Teams Heli's, and do the same to the other team.

       Once your done, every helicopter should have a Destroy Waypoint on the opposing Team's Helicopter. Welcome to Civil War Pt. II.

        Or you can use the "this Dofire RedHeli1" command too. Just plop it into their Ini Field, and watch the fire works.


       (BTW, DON"T FORGET TO CHANGE MISSION.TXT TO MISSION.SQS AGAIN!!!!!)

       I hope this helped, if your map gets screwed up, just go for your back-up Copy. Select your back-up, hit Edit, then click CUT. Go into your Missions Folder, delete the mission.sqs, and go to Edit, then Paste, and walla! Your Back-up Map has comed to saved the Dayith.
