the tools work like the regular swbf 1 mod tools... odf's can be created in notepad, msh's in something called xsi, and tga's are photoshop...
and btw stop asking questions like "can you skin?" and "how do you make odf's?" If the answers were plainly answered in teh swbf 1 mod tools... The swbf 2 mod tools are just a suped-up version of the swbf 1 mod tools (the new zeroeditor is sweet). and I think the pandemic people had fun writing the documents *looks at "Creating a BF2 Jedi.doc"* |

Posts: 311 | I have to agree with Delta. n00bs. All of you.
Here are some frequently asked questions that, if you would take just a LITTLE BIT of initiative to look into you would have found the answer.
Q: lolomg du u need ptch 4 dis?
A: Check the readme. Check the patch readme. Check any news post involving either. YES. Idjut.
Q: wil sum1 tech me i dono how 2 do it
A: Check the documentation. There's a full folder of it and it tells you every step in making ODFs and all that other good stuff. Don't say it isn't there. You're just incompetent.
Q: How make work?
A: In the data>_build folder there is a modtoolsvisualmunge.exe. Run that and create your map folder. Copy and paste whatever assets you'lll need into it and run zeroedit(already in the mod folder). Upper left corner click load and find your modfolder>worlds>mod>world1 folder.
From there on it's all in the documentation. Stop asking for help here.
And Dave, that was yer last chance. If anyone cusses now I am going to ruin the posts. I'm not even going to just edit out the problem areas. It won't resemble the original in the slightest.
And don't say you didn't see the thread. I know for a fact you go on the forums.

Posts: 235 | The only way you can import BF1 mods into BF2 and have them fully work, you have to be the modder themself. Like, the only person that can get Coruscant totally working in BF2 is Rends, the creator. In other words, only the mapper themself can do it properly. |

Posts: 949 | Well whilst everything runs fine for me, I think this modder will let more experienced people do the work. It would take me far to long to create anything even remotely ressembling anything playable. However, if anyone can end up converting models for it, then I'll quite happily attempt to make a few (always wanted to see the Bwing in this game). |

Posts: 67 | I really don't like making maps, but I downloaded this anyway becuase it has all the odf files I need to edit anything I would normally edit in XVI32. Problem is, the only way I can get it to compile the rep.lvl file with my modifications, is to include all the odf, msh, and req files that they give you in the rep folder in the sides folder of my map, and when I do that and munge with the map editor and then take the new rep.lvl file out of my map folder to use as a stand alone mod, it is 10 MB smaller than the original and does not work. I have patched to 1.1, and I am really tired of hex editing, so, anybody here know how to help? |

Posts: 311 | Sometimes sides don't include every file(e.g. most side mods for swbf1 empire was missing probe droid odf and so it would crash). Since there are so many side variants it will take a lot longer to edit stuff appropriately and it may not work like the ones for the first game did.

Posts: 21 | Someone really should make a space map pr two with expanded interiors on the Capital ships. I made a standard space map and saw that there was a rediculous amount of room for more space inside a Star Destroyer, Mon Cal cruiser, etc., but I'm afraid I have not the slightest idea of how to even make the most basic changes, as the closest thing I have done to making a custom map for a program is a Galactic Battlegrounds scenario. |

Posts: 6 | Okay, this is my first time on this site and my first time trying to mod BF2.... I have been editing other games, but have never attempted this. I was just wondering if there was any way for me to import pieces of .tre files from SWG into BF2. I was hoping to change the TIE Interceptor to the Royal Guard Interceptor from SWG. Call me a noob if you wish, for I will admit that I am one. |

Posts: 144 | for Urcain: the modtools.exe is a mini version of BF2, and you put it in C:/Program Files/LucasArts/Star Wars Battlefront ll/Gamedata. To make a map, you go to the BF2_Modtools folder and go to data. Then look for a _BUILD folder and go there, you'll see a program called ModTools VisualMunge. Run that and create your world. Go back to the BF2_Modtools folder and look for a ***_data folder (*** means three whatever letter word for your world), and then you go to zeroeditor.
for LordJuho: lol this one is easy. just put the CD 1 in, but once the launcher comes up, just exit it. |

Posts: 245 | First of all, modding is very hard to learn. And it can be very frustrating at times when the mod tools don't cooperate the way you want them to
Also, For a first map don't try to edit sides (the units, vehicles, weapons, etc) yet. Just work on designing a map in zero edit playing with the height, texture, and object tools. If you need help go to the forum on http://gametoast.com this is very good place to go for mod help, esp if you are just learning.
After a while you'll start to get a handle on zeroedit work and you can edit the map's LUA's in the common/scripts/*** (*** is ur 3-letter map code) in order to edit the units or vehicles used in the map.
Once you become more experianced you can start looking into how to edit sides (the actual units, vehicles, and weapons and their textures aka skins).
Anyway I highly recommend not to mod unless your willing to go through all the trouble and work of learning how. |
