Nice zooks and I like the loop snipe!

This is a re-post from the following thread: http://bfmods.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2361
Hi guys!
I'm sure you often use buddy-list in BF1942 (or FH etc). You clicking "tab" and choosing buddy, then clicking on "add buddy" and voila!
Now text messages and kill messages from buddies are color coded green, yea? Okay... but wait, what about, when there are MORE buddies than 1???
All buddies have NEON GREEN arrows, vehicles marks etc. There isn't any problems with 1-3 people.... But when we playing in 6 - 9 members squad?In Battlefield Vietnam (from patch 1.2) you can change colors in buddylist.con just by writing RGB code.
Like: game.addPlayerToBuddyListByName "[PFT] TOM PL" 255 255 0
After that 3D nickname, chat messages and kill messages and Minimap signs are YELLOWI found also special program for Battlefield Vietnam, called: COLOR BUDDY
LINK: http://www.gamewatcher.com/mods/battlef … oler-buddyI started on my own with this problem, I found scripts in BFVietnam.exe
There are only 2 DIFFERENT lines for buddylist compared to BF1942.exe!First: One new line in BFVietnam 1.2: (SOURCE: http://imgur.com/iMIBjR6 )
readBuddyListFromFile
You don't have this line in BF42... but I dont have knowledge to convert it from vietnam and add.Second: (SOURCE http://imgur.com/6VL4bsa )
BF42:
game.addPlayerToBuddyListByName "%s"
BFV:
game.addPlayerToBuddyListByName "%s" %5.1f %5.1f %5.1fIf I add %5.1f %5.1f %5.1f (RGB code) this into BF1942, then I have RGB code in buddylist after nickname! But no changes in color after editing...
There is my REQUEST for coders or anyone who can do anything with this problem.
Can someone code more colors for buddy-list than NEON GREEN?I think this is MUST-HAVE add-on for our Battlefield 1942 :cry:
Having multicolor buddies in BF42 would be nice and break the routine of having all your buddies added in the generic neon green color. I think it would be incredibly useful for clan wars (leaders in one colour, regular members in another, or a different color for every role).
You can add ''buddies'' in BF1942 by pressing the tilde key under ''ESC'' (`) to open the console. Once the console is open, you can type in "ab #" where # is the player ID of the person you wish to add. To know the player ID of someone, simply press Tab while in game. You can also "add buddy" yourself by entering your own player ID in the command.
Your buddies will appear in a neon green color in the scoreboard and on the minimap. This can help to form squads and stuff when you are in a large BF1942 server. I think it was a primitive version of the squad functions and classes that came later in BF2. BFV adds the option of having buddies of different colors, instead of the generic green color.
uhh so much confusion
1. BGA is great, its just that if you finalize the files with it, it may break compabillity with win rfa.
2. the "the chrome-like reflection" is called environ mapping and its said that win rfa breaks this function, however i have made many maps using win rfa and the environ mapping works perfectly, so i cant really agree on this.
3. you can never ever use an object that only recides in one map (like the JU88) in any other original bf42 map without using a patchfile of some sort
4. if you are making a map it can read files from other maps
I dont remeber the exact code, but something like
#include\bf1942\levels\Battle_of_Britain\Objects or load @ROOT\bf1942\levels\Battle_of_Britain\Objectsusing ROOT the game looks in the root of the game first and if_not_found it looks in "root" of the map
So a simple include command does the trick? Such as adding bots to non COOP game modes? I will have to test that to see if it's server-side.
you can also link to other maps for resources, for example if you want to use the JU88 that is in the Battle of Britan map, you dont have to rip it out just make a reference pointing to it and the game will fetch it and you can use it in your map.
How is that done exactly? I'd like to see the code. I've never heard of custom objects (objects that are map side only) being used in other maps by simple code references, IMO you need the files to make them work in your map. As BoB uses a lot of map side objects such as the AA bunkers and the Ju88A, it is not possible to use those objects in a new map without ripping the textures, sounds and menu icons from BoB to place them in said new map. Raid on Agheila and Liberation of Caen also have custom objects which are ran map side.
BGA is the best program to use for packing/unpacking as well as direct CON file editing without packing/unpacking I would say (winRFA also allows CON file editing). You can also visualize your map's heightmap directly with the built-in RAW file viewer, which is really helpful, and it has a lot of unique built-in functions that no other RFA packing/unpacking program has.
While winRFA is the most used, it can break a few minor things in your map when you repack it, such as the chrome-like reflection on soldier's guns from the ambient lighting. I also believe winRFA packs RFA files which have unreasonable file sizes.
I would suggest you go with GUI RFA Packer, a program that comes with the BF MDT v2.75. IMO it doesn't break you map upon packing and the file sizes seem correct.

Unless your server has something special and a ''wow'' factor that would make people want to go there, I don't think it will pick up population.
As for making a league in those mods, well, it sure looks interesting but to be honest I don't think there is enough interest or that the ''clan base'' in DC/DCF is large enough to even sustain a competitive league. That's just my opinion though, it doesn't mean you can't try to do it. I'm all for a new league in this game.
I'd just like to point out that a few weeks ago my clan leader and I tried to unite the remaining North American clans into one competitive BF1942 vanilla league such as the BF-League. It turned out that only three clans or teams are able to commit to it, out of a pool of about 6 original clans. It's not bad, and better than I expected, but still not even close enough to having a functional league IMO.
It might sound silly but I think that before you start doing that kind of project it's always a nice idea to meet up with DC/DCF clan leaders and members and survey their opinion about making a new league. If you see there is sufficient interest from the clan community, then I guess you can go forward. Then again, some clans say they will participate and end up not being able to commit to a match schedule. So it's really trickier than you think.
Anyways, good luck in your project.
Well, to begin with I was thinking more in the terms of SiMPLE hosting the DC/DCF server. But I do agree with you on the fact that we have to talk to the clan leaders and members to see what they think of this idea. But I was to begin with just thinking that SiMPLE might be able to help seeing as it is a quite big community.
Honestly if SiMPLE did this it would be great. It has the name and the player base. FH/FHSW/DC/DCF/EoD/GC as main mods on rotation.
What the fucking hell, lmao

Hanzee and me couldn't finish our match tonight. Every dogfight took like 10 minutes on avarage and most of the times we crashed into each other (which we didn't count as a point). After more than an hour, we were tied at 4-4. (3-1 , 1-3).
http://imgur.com/wUjYSO5
sorry for bad language on the screenVita suggested to fly in the corsair which I hate.
After that we decided to play in the zero to determine the winner and ,of course, we crashed 2 times. Then we tried the Corsair and surprisingly we crashed again. Unfortunately Hanzee didn't have much time and had to leave meaning we had to postpone the last round.
Ok guys let me know when the sudden death match to pick winner takes place.
Well since Karlson doesn't want to / can't play versus me I should move on to face Gio right?
Yup. You can contact him to set up the match.
The tournament is still live just so everyone knows. So you can keep on having your matches until Vita finds an opponent.
Agreed, IS82 is the best mod to host a racing event.
Les mecs on se fait un 4v4 un d'ces quatre?

First you have to take your monitor and run 3 laps around your house clockwise; Then another 3 laps counterclockwise, drink some water. Make sure that your PC is turned on when you come inside.
Repeat process 2-3 times a day until cheaters are banned by Punkbuster.
LMAO
You're right Mamba. Lack of respect to your tournament, I'm sorry even tho it barely affected the table. I appreciate
your glow to keep things active."Guys if you want to act like kids and not play serious in the tournaments, then I will not host any cups in the future."
Nono, don't get me wrong. I was playing serious with SleveN.
Nah but Mamba, I'm sorry. I respect your engagement to this tournament and I failed to follow the rules and should be disqualified, that's fair play.
But sometimes you are also very silly! https://www.bf-league.eu/index.php?opti … 6153#36153 pointless flame no one wants to read on bf-league. I guess we both have something to work on. Once again, I'm sorry.
Haha, you got me here. Well you know lache, he is like a wild dog that needs to be tamed, so I just put him in his place. And plus nobody wants a hacker in the League.
Beyazz is alive. Beyazz confessed to Jazzy. Beyazz came here first to win the tournament but then Beyazz realized that it's not very nice to the pilots that are good, like Joint, Viitapiru and Hanzee, don't get him wrong, he doesn't want to be arrogant. Beyazz just wanted to beat Jazzy and then lose the tournament on purpose, but the table didn't follow up to his expectations.
It's a defwin for you Hanzee. My apology to you sommarel, you deserve a 2nd chance, however you would never stand a chance against Hanzee anyway. It wouldn't make much difference whether I would let you win or not. If you look at it on that point of view, it's not too bad but in the practise I'm still sorry you french bot
But I still think you enjoyed that dogfight against him
![]()
Last but not least, my biggest apology to you Mamba. It's good in that way that it doesn't really affect the table.
And a little sorry to Beyazz, he was supposed to be the legendary pilot in the aces high. The guy who barely can't take off with the plane (possibly) ends up in first place. Would have been a funny first impression with a smile on his face![]()
I guess I'm disqualified and I understand that :-))))
@Sonic
Guys if you want to act like kids and not play serious in the tournaments, then I will not host any cups in the future.
Doesn't seem the server has a PW by the looks of it.
That's not the way to handle it Mamba, trust me. Hanzee still deserves to fight for the first place....
Post edited. I didn't expect that from you SleveN. Anyways, too bad, you could have won but threw it all away by acting silly.
Viita gets def win over SleveN and hanzee will advance to Round 3 of LB to face dikzak.
Hey lache, let's 1v1
Of course it can full screen. It don't understand how Win 7 restricts it to a minimized window.
This guy would like to join the clan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4m9i-9RksI

It makes me want to play BF2 again. The dynamic in clan wars seems interesting. Also check out the ESL Nations Cup 5v5 for that game, which was hosted in 2010. Some pretty nice actions there too.
Here is Norway vs Finland: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTdkYmYg8Uo
Any matches guys?
Will update bracket once I get home.
et en apres midi?
D'accord, le serveur sera le même que la dernière fois et le password aussi.
Et pour l'heure? La même chose que la dernière fois?
Trouvez une map qui vous plaît et quand ça sera fait envoyez moi un MP pour que je la mette sur le serveur !
