I'm just curious someone in the Sheild Battery topic in this forum, posted a EUD condition trigger (for 1.14) using this condition: Accumulate(P30486, Etc..);
My question is where can I get the custom .lst files that will allow StarForge (or hopefully something better) to input these invalid Player values. I have the custom .lst files from MemCalc that allow you to enter invalid unit values but this is an out-dated technique...
Also any pointers to where a good place to start hex editing would be of great help and much appreciated.
Thanks

No hex-editing is needed. The .lst files are text files; you can edit them in notepad. Open conditions.lst, find the accumulate condition, and change "Player Player" to "Number Player"
voila!
voila!

The bit about hex editing was a seperate question, what are some good resources? I haven't had much luck with google/forum searches.
EDIT: and btw thanks for the hastey response.

Get a hex editor - I have Mirkes "Tiny Hexer" and "XVI32", but I only use tiny hexer.
If you want to hex edit map files, you'll need WinMPQ as well.
Hmm, I can't tell you a good source... I got into hex-editing easily because of programming. How good is your knowledge about data structures in computers?

My favorite hex editor is HexWorkshop. To get started on hex-editing maps, grab the scenario.chk file from the archive using winMPQ. Then just find a chk format spec somewhere - I think there's one in the tutorial section; there's definitely one on blizzforums.

Sadly the one on Blizzforums is not complete by now, and Carlsagan (who started the thread) seems very inactive at the moment. I'd really like him and Evo to finish that thread...
Anyways, the best specs for STR are certainly found on Blizzforums
Those specs from CC are down as well, aren't they? That's too bad actually. Though they were not really good and partially incorrect, they cleared up most things...
