I know I've made a deployable B1 Battledroid in the past, and I wanna say I think it was still using the "soldier" class. So hypothetically I would think it should be possible to make a deployable "flyer" class as well. The "droid" class currently used is very similar to the "hover" vehicle class, so you could start by switching "droid" to "hover" and see if that causes any issues. And if it still works, you should be able to switch the class to "flyer", then just copy over the various movement characteristics from the gunship. But try switching the classes first to make sure it doesn't crash.

Oh, I didn't realize it was quite that big. lol Sorry!

Would it be alright to upload the unsorted files right now? I was in the process of writing out an email to phych0fred about a bunch of textures and models, but if I might be able to shorten the email if I found some of my items in question among those files.

Thanks!

Didn't quite find what I was hoping to find, but there were still some interesting things in there nonetheless. So thanks to AnthonyBF2 for the original upload as well!

Pretty sure that mysterious CP on the Jabba's Palace map is probably what the Gamorrean Guards use to spawn. They need a spawn point too after all.

Quote from: ivocaprison on October 22, 2022, 07:00:25 AMCould you maybe release the assets for this map?

They are already released:

Be sure to check the downloads section first to see if something is already released!

Your thread title demands the customary answer:



(Also hello and welcome to the site )

I watched this after-the-fact, and I don't have a Twitch account, so I'll comment here.

Anyway, really interesting stream Phantom, thanks for sharing! I think it's too bad they didn't just keep a maybe slightly updated version of that red BF1-style menu and hud for BF2. Personally I think BF1's menu and hud were leagues better than BF2, but that's just me I guess. Has anyone ever managed to port the BF1 HUD over to BF2?

Also, I'm wondering if there's an asset release in the works, since you mentioned sorting through Psych0fred's files. I'm curious if there's any previously unseen source files among them.

Sorry for the bump, but would it be possible to have the link updated? It currently 404s.

I knew I had seen one, so I searched and found it on Gametoast:

http://gametoast.com/viewtopic.php?p=524619#p524619

I didn't get the game until a few years after it had been out, guessing '06 or '07, and I played it obsessively for a while since it was my first non-tactical FPS.

Funny thing was that, at the time, I always dreamed of how awesome it'd be to be able to create new maps and factions and stuff for the game, since at the time I didn't know modding was a thing. Then, one day, I discovered the old SWBFFiles site by accident, and downloaded my first mod map (it was Majin Revan's Thule Moon: Remnants), and I remembered just being blown away. So I got the tools and was so excited just at being able to do it, that I wound up releasing probably five or so crappy maps before I even knew what I was doing.

Good times.

Awesome discovery! This should be fun to experiment with!

Glad to be of service!

Quote from: Bluetothestars on September 04, 2022, 03:11:11 AMStrange, my jedi inf odf doesn't have that line. The issue isn't with making the jedi inf on knightfall fall over when dying though, that works, for some reason the jedi heroes like anakin don't, unless it's in heroes vs. villains

Oh, I should have noted that the FleeLikeAHero line I added myself, that was the a new addition. The rest is a combination of the two defaults.



Anyway, so I think maybe there were some misunderstandings going on here in this thread. So Bluetothestars is talking about the unit in the actual hero slot, not necessarily the hero units, if I'm not mistaken? While I think Anthony was talking about the hero odf classes, but not the actual slot in the LUA they are put in.

Case in point here, I just went and tried putting my jedi unit in the hero slot, and it does the hero kneel down thing, even though it literally just had the regular death animation when it was in a trooper slot. So I decided to try adding the lines in the LUA, and in order cross-reference to see if they worked, I had one of them set a regular trooper in one of the common slots to do the kneel down.

    SetClassProperty("pct_inf_hero", "FleeLikeAHero", "0")
    SetClassProperty("pct_inf_assault", "FleeLikeAHero", "1")
So that assault trooper is in the "sniper" slot. While the hero unit is the one set to be a hero.

sniper = { "pct_inf_assault",1,4},



    SetHeroClass(IMP, "pct_inf_hero")
The LUA override works and makes the assault trooper kneel when killed, but it doesn't not affect the hero, which still kneels down like a normal hero. That same pct_inf_hero unit, if I remove it from the hero slot and put it into a common trooper slot, will do the regular death animation. I did several switches of different units and whatever unit is set as the hero class will always kneel. I even just copied the trooper in the rifleman slot so that it was in both the rifleman slot and the hero slot, and just being in the hero slot causes it to kneel down.

In other words, I think any unit that is put in the "SetHeroClass" slot will always kneel no matter what. I don't know if there is a different way to override that or not.

Hopefully all that rambling makes sense!

Okay, I dunno if this will be helpful at all, but I went and tried to make this work myself. I'm kinda novice when it comes to BF2 modding (more of a BF1 guy), so I just combined all the specs from both the com_inf_jedi with my individual unit .odf. The fleelikeahero line is right under the geometry and override texture lines. I did NOT put anything into the LUAs. It works perfectly in-game:
