How to edit a stock world:

Have the mod tools intalled.
Have BFBuilderPro installed.



Create a world using BFBuilderPro, for example, bes10.

Delete the contents of the newly created World1 folder located here:
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Worlds\bes10\world1

Go to the Shipped Worlds folder for the stock map. 
For example, cloud city is Bespin world2 and it is located at
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Assets\Shipped Worlds\Bespin\world2


Copy the contents of this folder to your world1 folder
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Worlds\bes10\world1

We also need the folders:
Effects
MSH
munged
ODF
from C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Assets\Shipped Worlds\Bespin

copied to
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Worlds\bes10



Using the file explorer, select the folder
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Worlds\bes10
right click choose properties and uncheck the
"Read Only" attribute.

In this directory:
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Worlds\bes10
delete your bes10.req file

Copy the req file for your world to this spot.
copy
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Assets\Shipped Worlds\Bespin\bes2.req
to this location:
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Worlds\bes10


rename the bes2.req file in your data directory to your modid:
right click and rename it to bes10.req


When you run zeroeditor in your data directory, it will be able to
load up the stock map.  (Start zero editor in C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10, press I agree load the world from  C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Worlds\bes10\World1\bespon2.wld)


If you want to add vehicles, you must edit the LUA file located at
C:\LucasArts\BFBuilder\Databes10\Common\Scripts\bes10

Detailed instructions on adding vehicle spawns are beyond the scope
of the tutorial.

Side modding can be done in the usual manner.


Thanks to Shap and DanielSon777 for debugging the tutorial!

Edit:

Note that if you need to perform localization on the map, the name used in the localization process will be bespin2 in this example, not the name of the mod id (bes10 in this example).

vehicle spawn locations may need to be adjusted--lemme know what you think!

Hey skirata,

I think the idea is like a SWBFgamers "fun night".  For something like that, I don't think that anyone needs to be held to exclusivity.

We already have an ongoing tournament.  After that (maybe during) we can set up a regular mod map night.   As long as we host it by Direct Connection, then we can also involve the Mac players that are still around.  They are good peeps

This forum is for discussion or release of no-download server side mods--which means players can have a modded experience without having to download and install a mod map.

Only certain changes can be made and a download is not required, but they can be fun.

Most of these mods can be played by both PC and Mac players when using the Dedicated Server option for the game.

Solved, somehow

A short answer is no

Jedikiller had a chat type feature set up on MPCgamers, but there really was very little activity, primarily due to the format.  He chose a new host for CM that would allow him to use a better chat feature.

The best we can do is perhaps to make a 'chat forum' where you can post about pretty much anything.  But keep in mind too, that we only have about 50 people per week that visit here, and about 10-15 that visit every day or two.

Perhaps another option would be to make an xfire group and use that conference chat feature there.

Only select few items are non-downloadble server side moddable.

These things include speed settings in side ODF files, and a few things that you can do in Battlebelks mission tools.  I'm sure there are other that can also be accessed by hex editing.

But otherwise, you would have to get the sides to the players as well as the server.  The easiest way to do this is by releasing a Addon level.

Perhaps we should start a list of what things are server side moddable that don't require a download.

Hi Flo, I think this is PC only.

Hi Flo,

The answer is yes, provided that the proper port forwarding settings are made on your firewall/router.

There is a topic on portforwarding for macs here:

Hope it helps,
