I'd say minor modification. In my opinion, total conversions generally include changing the graphics/sounds/portraits/etc. of every unit to custom ones.

well what i think is that its too good for a minor conversion but not good enough for a total

Yep a Total Conversion should have pretty much everything changed. That's why it's total.. tongue.gif

And your is minor because the whole long list u typed can be reduced to ".dat and .tbl files edited", and there still are .grp, .smk, .bin (menus), .bin (iscript), .pcx and so on to change.

And oh comeon "unit/building/requirement names changed", how will you convice anyone to try your mod out wink.gif
These kinda mods are nice to play around for yourself, but if u want to make something worth attention focus on a single project and try to get as many new and ineteresting ideas and custom stuff in it as you can so people would really get interested. smile.gif

whether you consider it a total conversion or not doesn't matter by what all's edited, it's how much it effects the gameplay.

example: you could make a pretty funny total conversion with .dat edits only, and it might actually become a common mod.

I think a TC should change the style of gameplay drastically, such as with tech tree editing.
