Forgotten hope Flamethrower

[Gregb1955]

I notice in the objects/Handweapons folder of FH that there is a FMW35flamethrower in the list. I would like to import this into BF42 but I would like to try it first!
I have played many of the maps in FH and can not seen to have used this weapon. Is this weapon in any of the maps or is it in the list for future maps?
Thanks..

okay. you can spawn it in with the debug executable. it will become your best friend!
I'm having some serious deja vu right now, so I'm gonna find when I did this before.

That is THE MOST useful tool for modding.
Then, open up the VideoDefault.con and set full screen to 0
Where video default is, it is in
(wherever your game is located)\Mods\bf1942\Settings
open up any con file with notepad.
when that is all done, start the game using the debugger, get to the FH mod... etc.
When in game, press "~" and type the following, then hit enter;

Code: Select all

Game.spawnObject FMW35flamethrower

The reason it has to be windowed, is that when a bug error pops up when full screen, the game crashes.
When you don't wan to use the debugger, you can go back and set it to full screen, and run the normal exe.
And one more thing, if you have the retail version, you don't need the disk when using the debugger.
You will NEVER have to reinstall the debugger executable.
The site the download comes from has installation instructions.

you can find the names of objects when they are defined.

EDIT: forgot to add, you can run the game normally just by not using the debugger!
