SF2 Weapons Editor is out

[Fubar512 1,350]

Read all about the SF2 weapons editor, here: weapons editor infolink

 

It works grrrreat!

[Viper6 3]

Yeah TK said that a skilled modder could use note pad to edit weaps BUT most of us are NOT skilled modders So I for one can not even begin to make this work.

[+Brain32 265]

Well let's just say I could probably make a WEP pack, and I don't even have SF2 lol

[Fubar512 1,350]

Just follow the same format as you would for adding groundobjects and aircraft. Every individual add-on weapon should have its own separate folder, containing all the .lod, .bmp, and .ini files for that weapon, as well as a unique weapondata file of its very own.

 

As Brain32 implied, it's very simple.

Which .ini files, if I may ask?

[Fubar512 1,350]

Which .ini files, if I may ask?

 

The same folder structure as a groundobject or aircraft would have, including a main.ini and a data.ini for that weapon. The patch would be "My Documents\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2\Objects\Weapons, and then the folder for that weapon.

 

Just look at your groundobjects folders for guidance. You'll figure it out

So Fubar,

There isn't any .Dat File anymore?

[Fubar512 1,350]

Yes, but it's no longer necessary to use a weapons editor to modify it (unless you wish to remove or replace existing entries).

[+331Killerbee 840]

Very Cool! Thanks for the Info......Gone adding Weaps.....

[+331Killerbee 840]

And if You know Uni-Code, You can make the .Dat too.....

[Fubar512 1,350]

Precisely. Otherwise, it might prove awkward to port over hundreds, if not upwards of 1000 weapons, by hand.

Add a weapons folder to the object folder in your SF2 install (remember, it's in the "My Documents" folder), drop this in, and use the format for guidance:

r_60mk.rar

[+331Killerbee 840]

OK.

But You know, Word Pad would be better. It'll read Unicode.......

[+331Killerbee 840]

Now have 900 Weaps and climbing.......

 

Just like Ground Objects......hummm

Everything is smooth.......Just watch the ECM Pods. There's about two to three new entries for them....

 

MinFreq=

MaxFreq=

CanJamCW=<-- I assume either TRUE or FALSE.

great work guys.

[kct 5]

Already said that it'll act like the adding ground objects and aircraft :ph34r: .

[+331Killerbee 840]

1,395 folders.......working so far.....

[+331Killerbee 840]

If You get the Weapons Pack that AOCBravo and Team did......Alot of the work is already done....

[+331Killerbee 840]

OK.....The biggest problem I see is Editting the Effects....Most of the "Old" Effects were done in DX9. The new SF2 Effects and Particalsystem.ini uses new "Plug-in's" for DX10. Many of the "Old Effects" are just outdated by the "New Effects". With that said, It's just like Fubar512 said, It's just a matter of editting in Note Pad.......

 

 

You can still use the "Old Effects". But I suggest giving the new ParticalSystem.INI a once over....

 

BTW......You'll find the F4AFTERBURNER there too......hint,hint...

Remember, You've got to have an .LOD File in every Folder for it to work.........

FYI, there's also a new jammer type added. In addition to NOISE_JAMMER and DECEPTIVE_JAMMER, there's now a DUALMODE_JAMMER, as well (at least in the aircraftobject.dll).

So, KB, when you releaseing the SF2 Wep Pak????

 

You all relaize you just might make me have to spend 20 buck I don't have to get SF2....<sigh>

If so, at least I"ll be able to rest the new terrains in it...
