Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

Hi guys.

I need to create a minimod for Battlegroup42 and thus I need to create the level patchfiles with the proper MapID for it. Now, I'm way too lazy to convert every map one by one as that would be a real pain in the ... as BG42 has 134 maps...Anyone got smart ideas how to accelerate that conversion

If it's unclear what I mean: I mean the basic "patchfile" in most mods levels folder without a patch-tag (e.g. mods\BG42_WGP\...\levels\el_alamein.rfa) that only has to include the Menu/Init.con with the proper MapID.

make a fancy folder with the init that has the setmap ID

copy it

ALOT

change 1 word in each...

I thinks its justs one of those thingzers

Well, that kinda still would be the "long" tour, wouldn't it?

what do you mean by map id?

he meant mod id

What he said . Still, no ideas how to speed that process up?

Probably only take 10 mins manually.. Post the time. I will beat it.

Took 15min...but still is annoying as hell I hoped somebody might knew about an ancient tool to help with that kind of stuff...

I guess most mods never have that many maps (included with the mod) so it was never an issue or something people needed.. ?

Guess so...
