Offsets> I have just figured out a neat way of finding offsets!!!
use mapview.exe, and on the rite side, should be some offset info about the map u are currently viewing, but u hafta recognize the map!

I tried my map, it didn't work, but at least it loaded it!!! I named mine scg01ea.ini ... maybe the "a" would help... maybe its a different map.
Please mail me if u get a map to work!
Thanx
