I'm sure most of you have worked this out, but there is a much easier way of running the buildmod file than messing around with cmd.

1. Select BuildMod.bat

2. Create a shortcut.

3. Open the properties of the Shortcut and add the folder name after the Target, ie. my mod is in Mods/EventHorizon, so the path for the shortcut is:

"C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Command & Conquer 3\MOD SDK\BuildMod.bat" EventHorizon

You can then compile your mod easily just by double clicking on the shortcut, from wherever you like, rename it to 'Build Event Horizon' or whatever, and can even make multiple copies if you are working on several different mods.
