All Access Modification?

Kuyong_Chuin · Post by **Kuyong_Chuin** » Sat May 29, 2010 8:32 am

When you load R2R or SW you have access to the orginal maps as well as the mod that you have loaded, R2R or SW. After examining some of the files I am wondering if you modify the init.con and contentCrc32.con file in BF42 to include all the mods you have installed if it will load and play all the maps without having to switch to R2R or SW to get to the maps yopu want to play. This might have the added benefit of being able to place any of the weapons, aircraft, ships, and land vehicals on a custom map without having to move and set up equipment from another mod onto your maps. Has Anyone tried this yet?

UPDATE!!! It Works!!!!

OK it has one minor flaw but other that that it works and I have not found any problems other than the one flaw. It shows the SW maps with the R2R icon as well as the R2R ones but oh well we can fix that later I hope.

Here is what you do. First go to your game mod folder in my case this is E:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942 but most will have it on thier C: drive not the E: drive. Now in that folder look for your init.con and contentCrc32.con files. Add .bak to each of them so they look like this init.con.bak and contentCrc32.con.bak this way you have the oginal fils backed up. to reuse the orginals just remove the >bak extention from the file name.

Now open Notepad or whatever text editor you use to create con files with. Create a new init.con and contentCrc32.con file.

In the init.con file put this code.

Code: Select all

game.CustomGameName BF1942
game.addModPath Mods/BF1942/
game.addModPath Mods/XPack1/
game.addModPath Mods/XPack2/

game.setCustomGameVersion 1.6
game.setCustomGameUrl "http://www.battlefield1942.com"

Game.setDebriefingMusicFilename "music/briefing.bik"
menu.setIntroMoviePath Xpack2 Mods/Xpack2/Movies/Intro.bik

game.customGameInfo "XPACK2_INFO"

In the contentCrc32.con file place this code.

Code: Select all

Save the files and place them in your \Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942 folder and start the game with the regular BF42 short cut and there you go all you maps on one mod without having to switch mods everytime.

Now if we can fix the icon flaw it will be perfect.

To add new mods to it just add this line to your init.con file

Code: Select all

game.addModPath Mods/[color=#80FF40][i]Mod name here[/i][/color]/

then add you map content files to your ContentCrc32.con file like I did above. Have fun.
