We are a group of big fans of this game and we keep playing it in multiplayer still now. We're not professional modders, but we like to do our best to mod games and get more out of our plays. One thing we've already done is unlocking several hidden weapons (Winchester Riot, MG42, Panzerfaust, PPSH, Mosin-Nagant) to get played in our multiplayer sessions. Now we're trying to do something different.
The idea is to bring single player map layouts to corresponding multiplayer maps. For example, the Docks multiplayer map is way smaller than the corresponding single player map, the tower building in the Snipers map is locked in the multiplayer layout, similarly to what happens to the Bridge map.
What we currently did is to
- open up map files (having the extension ".pak") using the tools provided in some previous post here
- substituted combinations of files from the SP map files with the MP map files (no success with map layour change - tiny changes in different properties - like sounds and graphics - occasional crashes)
- downloaded and installed different Renderware Graphics sdk and Studio versions, to attempt importing rws files and scraping a bit (unable to run the studio unluckily)
Do you have any advice/things that you would try further to achieve something in that regard?
Thanks in advance for any potential answer, we'd really appreciate that!
