Game Moding Help with .dat files.

[Dark-DJ-Master]

Ok, After playing uplink for a cuple hours, am finding this game very fun. ( Not very realistic i might add. mabe a nother version for that *Hint hint * )
though i like messing about with things and changing things to my own style.
After making my skin ect.. ect...

I want to edit the game further but i notisted when i try to exstract data.dat it will not let me.

Any help on this would be grate thanks.

(Sorry for bad spelling)

the dat files are actually ZIP files.

rename and extract.

Also, please avoid using such font colors from now on.

I thought that,first thing was renameing file to .txt, then tryed renaming to .zip all extract but data.dat and world.dat.

One thing though.^

When i try to extract data.dat it does not let me.
For creating the gateways please help.

Im guessing i
- put my gfx files in %gameroot%\Gateways\graphics (graphics.dat)
- put my data in %gameroot%\data\gateways (data.dat)

basicly im looking for some thing like RedshirtX. only a version like erm RedshirtWIN lol

Any help on this would be grate thanks
