Re: EF vehicles in my map

That's what I've been looking for as well. I've got a few stock maps that I'd like to change a few of the vehicles around, mostly add heli's to Karkland...

Re: EF vehicles in my map

Can't change the speed but to add vech's just go to 'Object_client.zip' in the EF folder then find the folder with all the vech's in and copy it, go to the 'Objects' folder in the 'bf2' folder and paste. Go to the Mod Manager and click 'Add...' then go to the 'Objects' folder with the vech's in.

NOTE: Only people with EF will be able to play it, this is an untested method at mapping.

Re: EF vehicles in my map

I already figured out how to do this right after i posted
With this method the other people do not need to have euro force.

Navigate to your maps objects folder and make a Vehicles folder inside that

Then go to the objects_server/objects/vehicles folder of the EF map OP smokescreen (it has all the vehicles)

Copy the xpak2_vehicles folder to your maps vehicles folder

And then do the same thing except with objects_client

Now make a new notepad document inside your maps folder called tmp.con and copy this text into it



rem Vehicles
run Objects\Vehicles\xpak2_vehicles\xpak2_eurofighter\ xpak2_eurofighter.con
run Objects\Vehicles\xpak2_vehicles\xpak2_tiger\xpak2_ tiger_rearrotor\xpak2_tiger_rearrotor.con
run Objects\Vehicles\xpak2_vehicles\xpak2_tiger\xpak2_ tiger_mainrotor\xpak2_tiger_mainrotor.con
run Objects\Vehicles\xpak2_vehicles\xpak2_tiger\xpak2_ tiger.con
run Objects\Vehicles\xpak2_vehicles\xpak2_tnkc2\xpak2_ tnkc2.con

Save it. Now make sure that the file is called tmp.con NOT tmp.con.txt


Open your map in the BF2 editor and go to mod manager.
Select the .con files in each vehicles folder to be loaded
Press apply then ok
Make a new object spawner.
In the tweaker it will say what vehicle will spawn and you can change that to the EF vehicle that you want (it will most likely be at the bottom of the list)

It will not be textured but dont worry

Re: EF vehicles in my map

Well yeah, you can do that with anything, thats how you get custom music for your map, the only problem is that your final compiled map size is enormous.

EDIT: Just noticed how daft the C2 looks. lol! HaveEA/DICE ever even SEEN a C2? I think they just modeled it like that just to pi$$ off the Brits... They succeeded.

Re: EF vehicles in my map

Re: EF vehicles in my map

It took me 5 minutes

Do everything up to the part where you open the editer

Go to the folder of the map you want to mod.
Find gameplayobjects.con
Find the spawn you want to change

It will look something like this

rem [ObjectSpawnerTemplate: TV_station_ME_US_APC]
ObjectTemplate.create ObjectSpawner TV_station_ME_US_APC
ObjectTemplate.activeSafe ObjectSpawner TV_station_ME_US_APC
ObjectTemplate.modifiedByUser "OTTER"
ObjectTemplate.isNotSaveable 1
ObjectTemplate.hasMobilePhysics 0
ObjectTemplate.setObjectTemplate 1 APC_BTR90
ObjectTemplate.setObjectTemplate 2 USAPC_LAV25

Template 1 is MEC or china Template 2 is USMC.

Change APC_btr90 or whatever it is to the name of the Euroforce vehicle you want spawned

Save it and your done:)


NOTE: This will also work with AF

Re: EF vehicles in my map

goto

program files\EA GAMES\battlefield 2\mods

it should be there

then just look through objects_server.zip and objects_client.zip to find what you want and start to copy and paste into yor own mod folder

[vertex]

Re: EF vehicles in my map

so i copy the objects found in those zip files to:

ea/battlefield2/mods/airmaps/mymap ???

you see, im not making a mod myself, but a map for a mod.

i was able to find all those objects from that mod in them zipfiles, but still no objects in my modmanager/editor content, there is still nothing there :'(

appreciate the help this far...

GREETZZzz..
