I got WinRar...now what?

Moon_Dew:
BUMP

WinRar doesn't work.  Will someone either tell me how to unpack it manually, the name of an unpacking program, or how to rename the file?

Found a file that seems to work so far, it's called PakScape.

EDIT

Okay, now I have access to the code.  How do I change the code in order to give me more starting money, and how do I get the code to work?

DarkRain:
Wait, you mean you don't know how to rename files in your system? (I'd assume that right-click ==> rename would work almost anywhere you can run the game on)
No offence, but, are you sure you up for the slightly more complex task of modding the game?

Anyway, you'll have to learn the UFO-Scripts specifically campaign.ufo
(Hint: search for 'credits', and pay attention to which campaign are you making changes to)

Moon_Dew:
I'm not really sure what you mean by "rename", do you mean change it from PK3 to Zip, or to literally change the name?

Oh, and I meant to say this earlier, but I'm using the Win32 release of v2.4.

DarkRain:
In fact, in order to change a file's extension (in this case pk3 to zip) you need to rename the file -- of course windows systems have the tendency to hide the file extension from you, but usually only for known file types, I don't think that pk3 would be a known file type in most systems (btw not knowing what type of file you are opening is a security risk)

That aside, did you find the campaign.ufo file among the extracted files? And were you able to make the desired modifications?
