Has anyone figured out how to DL maps and load into non ranked DLC servers?
I found a tutorial but it sounds mighty risky.I don't want my steam account to be banned.I've got way to much Money invested in it to try without confirmation.
Here's the Tutorial I can get the FF file unpacker if need be.
Hi guys, i will show how to make DLC Maps as Custom Maps with using: Folder usermaps in <bloops root> Hex Editor ( i'm using HxD ) FF.Util DLC Map FastFile (.FF, I will use mp_kowloon) NOTE: YOU NEED ALL STUFF FROM DLC's IWD FILES! iw_XX.iwd ADDED NEW STEP.... (sorry guys i forgot .. lol) ALSO Files for mp_kowloo1 included now.... (without mod.ff and without mpmaps.arena file Quote:clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloon.csc clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloon_fx.csc clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloon_amb.csc clientscripts/mp/createfx/mp_kowloon_fx.csc maps/mp/mp_kowloon.gsc maps/mp/mp_kowloon_fx.gsc maps/mp/mp_kowloon_amb.gsc maps/mp/createfx/mp_kowloon_fx.gsc maps/mp/createart/mp_kowloon_art.gsc[/indent]ALSO:
Quote:
maps/mp/mp_kowloon.d3dbsp
4. AND Change all finds to: EXAMPLE:
Quote:
clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloo1.csc
clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloo1_fx.csc
clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloo1_amb.csc
clientscripts/mp/createfx/mp_kowloo1_fx.csc
maps/mp/mp_kowloo1.gsc
maps/mp/mp_kowloo1_fx.gsc
maps/mp/mp_kowloo1_amb.gsc
maps/mp/createfx/mp_kowloo1_fx.gsc
maps/mp/createart/mp_kowloo1_art.gsc
maps/mp/mp_kowloo1.d3dbsp
NOTE: mp_kowloon - 10 Letters, mp_kowloo1 - 10 letters.... (not less or bigger) NOTE: *.D3DBSP file must be renamed, this map will be same as original... 5. Save file ... 6. Now with using FF.Util PACK New map... 7. Create folder 'mp_kowloo1 (Name is SAME as files): in <bloops dir>/usermaps(Ex. <blops>/usermaps/mp_kowloo1) 8. Place new file in <blops>/usermaps/mp_kowloo1 and rename new file to: mp_kowloo1.ff (Name is SAME as files again ..) Second Step You need to create new gsc and csc files! 9. Create mod folder (blops/mods/mp_MODNAME) .... 10. Now find ORIGINAL FILES in <blops dir>/raw/(ex. maps/mp/mp_kowloon.gsc etc) Original Files:
Quote:
clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloon.csc
clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloon_fx.csc
clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloon_amb.csc
clientscripts/mp/createfx/mp_kowloon_fx.csc
maps/mp/mp_kowloon.gsc
maps/mp/mp_kowloon_fx.gsc
maps/mp/mp_kowloon_amb.gsc
maps/mp/createfx/mp_kowloon_fx.gsc
maps/mp/createfx/mp_kowloon_art.gsc
11. Place original files to <blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME (my is mp_maptest) Ex. <blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/maps and <blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/clientscripts 12. Rename all files... Example:
Quote:
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloo1.csc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloo1_fx.csc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloo1_amb.csc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/clientscripts/mp/createfx/mp_kowloo1_fx.csc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/maps/mp/mp_kowloo1.gsc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/maps/mp/mp_kowloo1_fx.gsc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/maps/mp/mp_kowloo1_amb.gsc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/maps/mp/createfx/mp_kowloo1_fx.gsc
<blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/maps/mp/createfx/mp_kowloo1_art.gsc
14. Now find mpmaps.arena file in <blops dir>/raw/mp/ and place to <blops dir>/mods/mp_MODNAME/mp 15. Open mpmaps.arena file with NotePad etc.. 16. Now make new map in END OF FILE: Example:
Quote:
{
map "mp_kowloo1" Real(new) map name ....
loadscreen "loadscreen_mp_kowloon" Loadscreen, from original file ...
longname "MPUI_KOWLOON" Name
loadname "MPUI_KOWLOON_CAPS" NAME
gametype "dm tdm sd sab dom koth twar war sur ctf vdm vtdm mini"
}
17. Save file .. 18. Add in zone source file (mod.csv):
Quote:
rawfile,mp/mpmaps.arena
stringtable,mp/mpmaps.arena
NEW STEP. Now open new files
Quote:
maps/mp/mp_kowloo1(_fx)(_art).gsc
clientscripts/mp/mp_kowloo1(_fx)(_art).gsc
ETC
And find all words in files with 'mp_kowloon' AND CHANGE THEM ALL TO NEW MAP NAME: mp_kowloo1 19. Build mod! 20. Launch game and mod ... 21. Type in console:
Quote:
/devmap mp_kowloo1
or
Quote:
/map mp_kowloo1
22. Enjoy map ... 23. Result: http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/541775...8C495B235/ NOTE: YOU NEED ALL STUFF FROM DLC's IWD FILES! iw_XX.iwd
