Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

I was playing hidden for source engine, and had an idea to make one for bf1942. The main thing is that i should make the players of one team completely invisible and also make the nametags dissappear. Do you have any ideas whats the best way make the players invisible?

only collision mesh avaiable...
or you make the color of texture very light and hard to see
and the name tag distance setting can be found in settings folder..
or you can make the name tag very high so you cannot see..
(nametagoffset)

Swap out the soldier textures with a "NoTexture" texture. Just copy it and rename it to what the soldier texture is named.

I found out the idea in Forgotten Hope, they have a texture called "NoTexture" with a size of about one pixel; it's used to take place of normal textures.

ghost mode!!
but bad thing is you cannot see them..

Ok thanks for your tips ! I will try to make something and lets see what happens.

please don't just remove the texture, that will make the geo have a gray surface

Find the RS files for the soldier mesh(s) used and simply add this line to the materials:
It will make the mesh entirely alpha and in effect make it invisible. No need to mess with the textures.

You can actually do this server side in SW Demo. Works pretty well if the invisible team can only use their knife. The invisible team has to put their knife away to be totally invisible, but have to take it out to be able to attack at which point the normal team can see a knife floating towards them.

Is there any possibility to make a kit that will make the player invisible. I guess not?

i think if you tweak the soldier LOD selector you could make them invisible when the yare far away and visible when they are only a few feet away (dont know if this is what you need)
