Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

Sorry being late to the party, but In my case, for my tank I went into the objects.con when I wanted to bring the chase camera further away from the tank to give it a better view around it, I changed this as seen below. The "-10" is for the camera to be brought backwards in F10 view.

Well well WELL... I got it working for Forgotten Hope Secret Weapon, too! I just made damn sure the "init.con" for BF1942 looked like this inside the "\Battlefield 1942\Mods\BF1942" folder BEFORE opening Battlecraft 1942:

Got it working, finally! I made sure in Blender to add another UV map beside the already existing "textureMap", naming the secondary one "lightMap". Then, exporting the visible mesh, collision mesh and using the samplesmaker by "CoinCoin" to generate a samples for my ob...

I've been sitting with this since yesterday... made a dummy cube in Blender and tried getting it to cast shadows on the ground the vanilla mod, no dice... My goal is to get a custom object casting shadows and getting lightmapped in Battlecraft 1942. But since a few hours back, this seems impossible....

Nowadays when I want to change or make maps with more objects ...

Download this: https://github.com/Ahrkylien/BF1942-Blender-add-on

Happy modding!

Very sorry for bringing up a nine year old thread... but I'm facing a similar problem right now with my own tank. I'm trying to get it into Battlefield 1918, but I suspect that the ske and skn files aren't exported correctly...

The game simply crashes without any error message whatsoever.

I'm actually now facing the problem that the bots will spawn alright, but they won't move. EDIT: Solved now. Enter in the following order in the game console (don't know if this works in the vanilla executable, but if it doesn't use the debugger): 1. game.createAIPlayer ">>Bot name here<<"...
