Success! Thank you! That was my problem. If even one of the tutorials I read had mentioned that single sentence I wouldn't have had a problem. I knew it was something silly like that. Finally I can sleep! :o Ah ha! That's how that folder gets created, thank you for that tip! Thanks to everyone who replied, you guys are great. I love this community. I really hate to ask stupid questions but I'll exhaust every possibility I can think of before I ask one. Thanks again for bearing with me!

:confused: :mad: Well, I'm at the frayed ends of my sanity. I've been trying to get a simple base respawn to work in a single player mission for 3 days and have yet to get it work. I've searched every possible "respawn" parameter on every Arma2 site that I can think of, and I've tried several different methods without luck. I'm going crazy. I'm not new to this, but I've been inactive for a few years and the old addage "it's like a riding a bike" has yet to take hold. I've read read several tutorials and yet even when following the instructions to the letter... failure, every time. To make the description.ext file I've tried both Arma Edit 1.3.4 and making one with notepad. I've tried every combination of caps and lowercase I can think of because I know how case sensitive everything is. I've tried making the respawn-west marker every way it can be made. Am I supposed to have a script.sqs file somewhere? Gah!!! I'm guessing the locations of my files are incorrect when I export to single player missions, it's the only thing I can think of at this point unless the description.ext I created is wrong or bad. In several of the tutorials I've seen this file path mentioned: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\ArmA 2\MPMissions That path does not exist in my folder structure. C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\ArmA 2\ does, but within the ArmA 2 folder there are only 2 files, ArmA2.cfg and my username.ArmA2Profile. I'm also curious as to where the editor exports those single player missions to, because I cannot find them anywhere. I've got a ton of scenarios that I'd like to clean out since they don't work but I cannot find where to delete those files. I spent years modding and editing OFP with good success, but I'm flat on my back right now and I feel like an idiot. I can't make a simple respawn script work? Seriously?!? Cmon!!! I hate asking for help, but I'm at my wit's end.
