Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

Yeah I might have forgotten to update the init.con of the mod so the old version string is shown in the custom games menu. :P As for Avatar Star, the maps I ported from that game have been there since 5.1 I believe? Don't recall exactly when I added them. Avatar Star was a Chinease game that was pre...

Been a long time coming, but one small update to Battlefield Heroes'42. I made some changes to the mod middle of last year. I waited for some suggestions on changes to the weapon balancing, but that never came. So I finally just released what I did. Version 5.2 now available! Changelog: Add ability ...

Thanks. You're free to port the map to any mod you want. I encourage that. Though the map is mostly selfcontained and doesn't use statics from the mod for the most part (well yes it does, but "copies" of those statics). (I wanted to lightmap everything and most if not all the statics in th...

I had something similar to this in my Dystopia City map for Interstate mod. I added bots to Conquest mode and forced them to spawn in "defense turrets" that would fire on enemies trying to enter the city. It worked pretty well for what I intended. The weapons the turrets used are weak enou...

I believe the ingame meme file handles it. I think it's simply a few extra nodes in the kit selection menu. But it's been quite awhile since I touched the meme code and it's quite different from the normal scripting in bf1942, so I forgot most of it. I can't help you because of this. Sorry.

The closest I got to attaching light sprites to a mobile PCO was via the treeMesh system and even then it was kind of janky on how I did it. Not very optimized because I had to work around a bug with the treeMesh max scripts. Even the MDT stuff seems to break treeMesh sprites. Even when editing exis...

I believe all the maps in my BF242'Redux mod use it: Battlefield 2'42: Redux :D As for the HP values. The meme file edits were somewhat simple to do. But It's been so long since I've worked on that that I wouldn't really be able to help you with that now. It's one of the lesser modded things I did w...

I recall getting bots working on conquest mode on my Dystopia City map for the interstate 82 mod. However I forced them to man "auto turrets" and not allow them to spawn anywhere else or exit the auto turrets. It's easy forcing bots to never leave stationary PCOs. However I couldn't force ...

Careful with what handweapons you may try this on. Adding a secondary fire weapon to a handweapon can interfere with the player's ability to fire the primary weapon in some situations. Generally if the secondary weapon runs out of ammo or has to reload a mag, the primary weapon becomes unusable (won...

Make sure you aren't addTemplating a PCO directly to a soldier object. It may appear to work, but WILL cause a crash at some point. The moment someone tries to switch seat positions when not in a vehicle will cause it to try and switch the soldier into the PCO. But the PCO is a child object of the s...
