How would you go about doing that in Windows, anyway? CorTool checks the selected app's identifier, which is reverse-domain string stored in the application's info.plist file.

In CC's case, it was something like "com.datarealms.cortexcommand"

Check to see if there's a "Cortex Command.exe" and "Base.rte" at the location where you specify it's installed? Wouldn't need anything more than that.

It would work, unless the user renamed either or both of those. Why someone would do that is beyond me, but it's possible. But then again, the whole app would break if the user renamed stuff, and maybe even CC itself.

how would i go about get it to search in the right place?

Did you run it as admin again?

yeah and this happened

In CCMM, you NEED to select CORTEX COMMAND's directory, NOT the Mod Manager's.



Run it as admin.

Next update: Program files detection and automatic security elevation. This is getting ridiculous.

and how do i do that?

this might sound really stupid but how do you run this i have visual basic but theres no exe in file what do i run or do help me!!!

I said the same thing above, so I'll quote that for you.


You should see a "CortexCommandModManager.exe," and if you do not it's something on your end. Possibly antivirus.

Hi, I've been trying to get my own skirmish waves to work, I've already made them and saved them using the mod manager, but whenever I try it out in game, only the default waves are activated.
I'm trying to get AAL waves to work.

It's possible another mod is adding its own default waves. If any other mod is loading skirmish waves it will override the mod manager's. Try disabling mods (such as unitec) until it works.

If that still doesn't work with just AAL enabled, then post zzzSkirmish_Activities.rte/Skirmish Activities.ini.

Once again, having issues with custom skirmishes.
I have the MMItems in the corresponding folders (AAL and Unitec) but they're not showing up in 'Default Items'.
Advanced Skirmish is on.
