both (Mac & PC) versions of CC2 store the informations about the teams in the base file TEAMS. The number of teams is limited there only by the number of entries in this file. As Ken Scott discovered, you can shrink the number of teams down to only 2 teams, and CC2 will still work. Expanding makes it necessary to expand the number of entries in the base file TEAMDESC, too. And you MUST expand the number of gadget images for the additional teams in the graphics file GADGET0 by adding at the end (use my new tool CC2Tools). Same to do with the file GADGET1. And you MUST insert in the file GADGET1 smaller gadgets for this teams in the middle of the file at entry 806! This is the starting point of the larger gadgets inside GADGET1. In the executable (ABTF on Mac / CC2.exe on PC) you must patch this starting point 806 in the object code. The ending point of reading the smaller gadgets takes CC2 from the number of teams in the file TEAMS.
