What utility do I download to edit U-Drive-It Missions?

Ok, well, I dont actually think there is such a tool available, sorry.
Also, this is the wrong forum for your query. This forum is for Simtropolis Website Related..stuff..only.

I think it's unfair when nearly all the Good missions don't reward you anything but mayor ratings, so I thought I'd ask you for a utility that I can edit those missions with, so I can make them reward me cash too. Please let me know. I'd appreciate that.

Boggy1, he did try his best, anyway. Welcome to the community, chomusclavus.

if i'm not mistaken, U-Drive-It missions are controlled by LUA scripts. you can use ILive's Reader to view those files, but i suggest that you dont do anything if you dont know exactly what you're doing. it can totally skrew up your game.

All I want to do is add monetary rewards on the numerous Good missions that don't have it. Can you show me step-by-step how to do this on the ILive Reader, Prince? If it happens that I can't make such an edit on that utility, does anyone know of any other utility that I can make such edits from?

i don't understand LUA scripting well enough to tell you what to do. sorry.

there are no utilities to editing specific files like these. all we have are the reader and DatGen. and with both, unless you know what you're doing, you shouldn't attempt to do it.

Well, if you just want to add monetary rewards you can look in the ones that have that, and then kind of copy-paste it into the others.

LUA script is amazingly easy to understand, compared to other scripting languages, so it shouldn't be too hard.

Just remember to backup your SimCity_*.dat files and save all your changes in a separate file.

That's what I forgot! My LUA tutorial! I know it's finished...I just have to find it... I promise I'll have it posted tonight or tomorrow.

Well Qurlix, your library book is way overdue. Just kidding. Did you find it yet? I look forward to reading it.

Oppie modded some missions ut I believe he ran into issues and walked away from it. Not really sure why it was never completed.
