Hello Everyone.

 

I've noticed that it's quite easy to add back BFME2 campaign in ROTWK, and  I would like to play them with 2.02 improvements and ROTWK new units.

 

Is there a "not too hard" way to add to buttons to the game main menu (so one for the bfme2 good campagn and one for the evil one) ?

 

Thanks you for your help.

You could try adding the missions to the beginning of the RotWK campaign.

Indeed, I've tested it by replacing the Angmar campaign by the good one.

 

What I'm trying to do is something cleaner, with a way to choose the campaign ingame.

Can you make a post with screenshots advertising your mod in the Showcase section of these forums?

Why did you replace the old campaign buttons instead of adding two new buttons? Its a little bit more effort, but would be way better i think. Or even a submenu with the different options for RotWk and for BFMEII would do the job.

Yeah, just look at the sprite of the Soloplaynav, copy and paste the right objects (the campaign buttons) and adjust their values (for all necessary farmes and you need to add some frames too), extend the frames around the submenu (its just one image you have to edit, for the other parts you have to set a new offset) and thats it. A lot of boring work, but not too hard, i think.

I have tried it, without success. The game crashed or became irresponsive when i added a button... maybe i've fucked up and should try again !

Regardless, thanks for the help Gwanw.

Hmm, small mistakes will lead to a crash, so maybe try it step for step. If you need some help to find the right entries, i can help you too.
