Re: Map Modding tutorials for Bf1942

Thanks Capt

It should be noted however that this is client side modding and not server side.

Re: Map Modding tutorials for Bf1942

Note: if you thinking about modding, then either make a backup on your game first (copy the lot to another folder), or install the dedicated server if you mean to serverside mod.

Why: because those programs can break the checksums on your files so that you cant  connect to a "pure" server anymore (such as Simple, BFO or AX)

Re: Map Modding tutorials for Bf1942

I think you can actually open a map and take a look around, but if you touch the save button (even if you havent changed anything) it will mess with the checksum of the map. Better be safe then sorry

Re: Map Modding tutorials for Bf1942

For those who have no idea:

I don't recommend editing maps in bc42 client side, even server side if you dont know what you are doing. it requires lot of effort and dedication/time.

Once opening and saving, BC42 actually fucks up some maps, the ones which were made by either a different version of bc42, or a different editor like ed'42 or chimera's battlefield editor or the aforementioned Crisis editor.

It actually adds code which the map isn't supposed to have, hence the crash. Once you remove that the map is fine again. But it takes time since you need extract the map and look for that code.

Adding new mods to bc42 can also fuck up your bf1942 entirely, actually it does, by editing your client side init.con. So you had better not touch it without help.

Re: Map Modding tutorials for Bf1942

...

Just make a backup from the original map and choose another mapname when you are saving.

I guess on way would also be to copy the entire \mods\bf1942 folder to \mods\bf1942mods and make the mods there.

If you want to test them just start the mod inside BF > Custom Game > Bf1942Mod
