to be able to use freecam on the swbf2 ps2 we need to hex edit the
COMMON.LVL using program HxD
from the game dvd placed into your dvd drive navagate to 2_01/DATA/_LVL_PS2  folder and copy COMMON.LVL onto your desktop for editing. load up your common.lvl just copied onto your desktop into HxD for edit. under the search header click it and find goto and click it.
in the box type 00013720
we are looking for freecam to change to console

66 72 65 65 63 61 6D = freecam
change to
63 6F 6E 73 6F 6C 65 = console


after making the change click file save your work. now your common file
is ready to be compiled into a new iso replacing the old one.

button usage in freecam
R1 up
L1 down
L3 forward backward left right
R3 *look* left right up down
DPAD  up: faster cam speed   down: slower cam speed

HxD can be found here https://mh-nexus.de/en/downloads.php?product=HxD
here is a link for the freecam common lvl  https://mega.nz/#F!fUATjZjA!BCjmGj_622Bb54J6ecCh9w
it needs rename after download to COMMON.LVL before placing it in the 2_01/DATA/_LVL_PS2  folder

Good job!

Do you mind if I add this to my modpack that I'm working on? I'll give you all of the credit.
Also can you put up the download for this HxD program, and the modded COMMON.lvl?

hi MamaLuigi i added your request to the original post 

Is the HxD app safe?

Also THANK YOU SO MUCH! I CAN NOW EDIT THE TEXT FOR BF2, AND EVEN MAKE NEW ELF FILES!!!!!!

:)

hi MamaLuigi HxD is safe to use. you can edit mission/sides/lvl files with it on the server files or client swbf1 swbf2 ps2 iso.


After modifying this file, what do you have to do to play it?
Do you have to create another iso or can you just replace it and boot the SWBF2 executable somehow?
