Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

Does anyone know where this excavator came from?

Most likely a cut and paste job by the dev team of the editor to add to the aesthetics of the game editor installer and the editor. I doubt that ever existed as a vehicle in BF1942.

Maybe it was made for a special "Battlecraft 1942" side mod, and then the object was deleted upon the release of the program.

I think Apache said it best in that it just represents a "construction theme" being it is a map editor that one "constructs" their map with. Actually a silly thread but it gives me a chance to mention that there was a mapping team, forget their or his name? I think it was DCMAPS or something of that nature, but anyhow they had created a model of a big TEREX dump truck, you know big yellow suckers used in mines. Anyhow I still have that stuff somewhere if anyone might be interested. There were some UN vehicles too, but the models are not the best in the world, though I suppose someone could clean them up and fix the textures. In fact the map might have been DC Quarry if I am not mistaken, like I said I will look it up if interested.

You have DC Quarry? I've been looking for that map for a few years and could never find it. I remember downloading a bunch of DC related mods just to see if they had that DC Quarry map with the huge dump truck in it. I played it a long time ago, and lost the mod it was in somehow (back when I didn't know anything about computers).

I'd be excited to get that map once again.

Sure no problem Swaffy, It was a kewl map wasn't it (in a weird way)? With a little work someone could do some interesting things with that truck. Your sudden interest prompted me to look and sure enough I found it along with three others by "DCM". I have along with DCM_Quarry, DCM_Operation Razor, DCM_Operation Sid II, and DCM_Twin_Rivers. If interested in the others I will upload them for down load.

In the meantime, you can download DCM_Quarry here.

I have gigs and gigs of this stuff all the way back, along with many of the first versions of popular mods too.

Here is a dump truck from the map Le Mans on the Highway, from the is82 mod...A mega 1 gig map with loads of great vehicles

That looks like the one from Quarry with a new and better skin. GoodDay, did you look at the DC Quarry map? Or do you not have DC installed? If not I will try to get a screen. I have some real old copies of I82 if your interested btw, some of the very first versions.

It probably is then. I did not look at the map. I do have DC installed. I believe you so I don't really need to take a gander:) But thank you sir. The first versions of existing maps? Custom maps? Or both? You can send them if you want....I am interested in anything Interstate:) I am currently working on Deathrace 4....Love me some is82!!

Good chance it is. I think the Wastelands used it re-skinned also.

I plan to put all the mods and versions I have up on my site as time permits, I will send you a link once up.
