Well that solved the first step. So basically, once I edit my files and zip it back up. I compile the source code and then profit?

Hi,

I am an old SC2 player who has beating the game tons of times over the years, both original and the new UQM version (which is pretty awesome BTW).

Anyway, I wanted to edit my ships this play through for the adventure portion of the game. So I searched the forum and came up with a few posts mentioning that it is do-able.

One such post:

Basically all the posts I see state download source code which I got from the main page. Then opening it up and going to sc2/sc2/src/sc2code/ships/[ship]/[ship].c

The problem is I can't seem to open uqm-0.6.2-source.tgz. I tried using the CVS programs but they don't seem to do anything (or at least I am not using them right.

Is there a specific files with a .c extension that I am supposed to download or am I just programming imparied.
