This article is an unfinished work in progress or contains transferred information that needs to be rewritten or reformatted to fit our standards. Please excuse the mess and do not mark for deletion.

One of several Level Files located in a Mission's level folder, the nrM file is the source code for a NERPs file that contains the Level's mission objectives. This file is not compiled and is editable in notepad. It is very similar to the NRN file and contains much of the same data. It is labeled as a "NERPs Source File." The nrM file is an exact version of the NPL file and contains all the information in the parent file, nerpnrn.h. Under certain circumstances, it is more useful to refer to this file rather than the NRN file as the NRN file will occasionally not match the nrM file, especially when using opening and closing "Function()" sections; these are translated to a series of Parameters and Special Parameters in the nrM file, which are in turn compiled into the NPL file.

Like the NRN File, changes made to the nrM file do not affect the NPL file, nor do they make any changes to the game.
