Everything can be done in ServerSettings.con. Works well with bot changer also, to change ratio. percentage and team tickets configured in SS.con. Your method is good to fine tune tickets between teams.

155 Levels is insane and that's not even including the different map sizes. I played so many already. Shame it crashes to desktop so much. Normally, I would delete and move on, but it's too good. I have a laptop with good specs (RTX 3080, 32gb RAM, 3.3 GHz). I play on LAN and have been careful with all the mods I own, and this is the only one that's unstable. It take's Battlefield 2 to another level. Nukes, a ranking system, and a complete overhaul makes this the best mod of all time!

Crashes in-game when all other mods are stable. Regardless, this is probably the best mod I ever used. Incredible!

biggest in the world

This is a special addon because it gives grappling hooks to snipers. Only 16 size maps. Need to figure out how to add night maps, and generally, bigger maps. Very good work!

You play with fanny all-day? ... Cool

Okay, so I'm pretty sure you have to create a small mod for the g.hook to work. I will try another day. If anyone could help in the meantime with some advice, that would also be great. Thanks.

It didn't work. I put the files in the correct places and added the text to kits/USSniper:

rem -------------------------------------
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate USPIS_92FS_silencer
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate USHGR_M67
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate grapplinghook < tried here
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate USMIN_Claymore < tried here
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate kni_knife
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate UnlockUSSniper
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate UnlockUSSniper2
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate ParachuteLauncher
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate USRIF_M24
rem -------------------------------------

I tried moving grapplinghook below Claymore also.

I am confused why I am making a mod when I am trying to install an addon. Surely it's simpler just to make copies of the Objects_server and Menu_Client.zips. The video was confusing. It's cool to learn how to make a mod, but not when you are trying to install something you really wan't to work. It just over complicates things. I have backups of BF2, both offline and online, so I got it covered. Man, I really wanted that to work. Spent so much time trying.

a bit late for that isnt it? I would same the same to myself.

I like to see when a mod creator is active in the chat. It's quite rare to see actually. Can't wait to try. EA and Dice should have included a grappling hook for snipers, as in, lone wolf. Kinda demolishes the concept. I get the counter argument, but that's war. "Jet's are overpowered" no shiz, I known many soldiers that can take on an F22 Raptor single handily ... Tongue in cheek. If we have lots of snipers on rooftops, artillery should balance things out. Thanks for this ad-don.

PS - your command of the English language is better than a lot of English people. Some of the instructions for mods are abysmal. I hope I succeed. Sometimes it can be a painful process. NohahTheGreat - a talented mod creator, included a simple video on how to install his mod. Ironically, the F22 Raptor for BF2. My favourite vehicle mod. The apex predator in the sky. That wasn't a hint, but if I owned Moddb it would be a requirement. Kinda helps everyone; including the mod creator.

Hi, most of the levels crash after loading. only tested a few. Special forces ones work, but not much else works. Thanks.

Gonna try. Appreciate the help, as most crash. Seems strange to delete such important files.

Update: game crashes at start

Great mod. Works fine for me :-)

Hey BF2all, you gave me some great advice a while back on a BFHD post (getting the F22 Raptor mod to work with BFHD), and I said i'd check out your work. Man, your mod is amazing. I only have three mods, the above mentioned, bf2sf64, and now your mod. There was a similar mod to yours, bf2sp128, which I used for a while, that also stayed true to the vanilla game, but there were too many issues. I haven't experienced any such issues with yours. Incredible! The bots follow orders and follow instructions very well. I play with 102 bots, and it's all out war.

Unlike the issue with BFHD and playing the mod in LAN (delete the .md5 files), I am faced with a problem installing the F22 Raptor mod with your mod. There isn't a menu_client folder. I tried to create one (and rar(ed)) it, but the game crashed. It's not the end of the world. I managed to install Ai commander, and an offline ranking system, but the Raptor is the icing on the cake.

I figured if you would be as so kind to help on another post you'd be willing to discuss troubleshooting the problem (if it's possible). Thank you and great work on your mod. I'm a little late to join the party. Such is life.

... Update: I think I got my wires crossed. I thought you made the mod bf2all64. On second thoughts I maybe wrong. You're still awesome anyhoo :-)

Hey NonahTheGreat, and that you are. I was neither well nor healthy when I wrote that message, but things are improving :-) I hope you too are well and happy. Really appreciate you taking the time to reply. It goes without saying that I would credit you. Of course. Your talents are too good to go unnoticed.

I don't know much about implementing reshades, but your reshade is amazing and I want one :-) Can you link me up (I'm half joking)? I currently use BFHD Pro 2 (which has online servers) and your F22 Raptor mod works flawlessly in local/LAN maps. Had to delete all the .MD5 files for it to work.

Shame we have to guess, in this case, how crashes crashes occur. I was amazed how this mod looked and felt upon playing. What good is a game that keeps crashing? Don't understand how you could go to the trouble of making such a good mod, yet not offer any advice to the plethora of comments complaining about crashes, but address questions like "is there any winter maps ?". I get so frustrated having to waste so much time fiddling with files, starting the game, then it crashes, over and over, having spent considerable time to be none the wiser. A lot of the instructions are dismal for mods. I sense a magnitude of mod snobbery. Rather than making it accessible to people, this community doesn't seem very forthcoming in helping. I have received one reply since being on here for many months (BF2All - very helpful guy), and have so many cool mods in my graveyard library that I would love to use, but can't for the exact same reasons mentioned. If anyone seeing this feels the same overwhelming frustration, BFHD Pro II GOLD v2 is the most stable mod I have ever played in coop/LAN. It more stable than the original game. Really nice instructions too. NanohtheGreat makes exceptional addons and sometimes provides video tutorials, which is amazing. Now I feel better for wasting so much time... and breath...

Hi, I really want to use your mod but can't get it to work, as I'm finding it difficult to understand the instructions.

-place it in "Object_server&client;>Weapons>handheld"
then, go to "Object_server>Kits" - easy enough

-open US folder and open US_engineer.con using notepad (if you dont know)
BF2 FOLDER/MOD IN QUESTION/Objects_server/Kits/us_engineer.con - I think I'm doing things right up to here.

Now I confused. This is everything what I see in the engineer.con file:

My game just crashed and it didn't work.

Really fun mod!

I had a crazy thought of playing on LAN with my mate, and a T-Rex coming out of nowhere, ground shaking and the T-Rex mutilating him. Just the shock and surprise would be gold... I'm perfectly normal. Did a random search - BF2 T-Rex, and it brought me here. I love BF2 and the modding/game community!

It's just a file with two folders. Where do I put them please?

I really appreciate you taking the time out to provide such great info. There is indeed so much to learn (feels like too much sometimes). It's a crime that EA and Dice removed so much from the future releases, otherwise we'd could enjoy modern graphics. Well, least we have BF2. I didn't realise you make mods too. I checked your page and downloaded the monument valley map. I will look into your work more over the next few weeks. You must know a lot. I don't consider myself a complete noob, but I guess I am in the grand scheme of things. I have loads of questions but have to know when to contain myself. You have been a massive help. Thank you!

Hi NanohTheGreat, I'm a fan of your work and would like to feature your F22 Raptor mod in a youtube video that I'm going to make, and would like to ask if it's okay to do so? I realise that you are busy, and that it's difficult to commit time to answering questions.

I would love to find out where to access the mod Battlefield 2 - EC-635 COD GHOST - the helicopter look so good! I have done a search but it always leads to here, and I can't see any download options for this mod on this page.

Also, your version of the game looks incredible in the video. It's like a brand new/updated version of BF2. If you or anyone who notices this message can't point me in the direction as to how I can access the mod, or whatever it is that makes it look so good, I would be forever in your debt.

You are the man! Thank you so much!

Wow, you replied to two of my questions. That's amazing! I'm just trying to locate what you have written. Pretty sure I know where you mean. It's really handy you can do it for each separate map. Thank you! :-)

As a good will gesture... You said you were new to modding. I recommend BFHD Gold V2 (best BF2 graphic/game overhall), and the F22 Raptor - it's insane. If you want to play LAN Multiplayer with modified content (mods) you have to delete the .MD5 files (took me ages to work this out). If you decide you want to give em a try and have trouble. Just ask away and I'll be more than happy to help

Hey BF2all. Thanks for the info mate. You're the only one who ever replied to my questions since being on here. I thought I was invisible. Your method is unusual and new to my understanding. I'm not sure I fully understand.

I already have a separate modded folder/BF2 game for offline, and one for online. I used the exact same modded BF2 folder on a second laptop, and get the error modified content message. After endless research I discovered that I had to delete all .MD5 files - copyright protection files, and now I can use any mod across LAN multiplayer coop. It was a eureka moment. Maybe I have taught you something new for your trouble :-)

I meant nothing bad. I was just being silly. No offence intended. It's good to give feedback and I don't disagree with what you wrote. My favourite is the F22 Raptor, and I gave my two cents on what I thought, so we have a similar interest :-)

I'm reviewing your review -

Pros:
*Good layout
*Good to point out the positives, regardless of impatient undertones
*Some constructive feedback

Cons:
*Harsh criticism -
Dismal (adjective)
Causing gloom or depression; dreary.
Characterized by ineptitude, dullness, or a lack of merit.
Dreadful; disastrous... Bit ungrateful

Conclusion - modding is certainly more challenging and difficult than writing words on a screen

Total score 5/10. Decent, but no cigar

You're welcome :-)

Can I change the text in the map briefing, game mode and server message section (as the map is loading part) using this tool? ServerSettings.con only allows me to add one line of text.

Great work. I'm overwhelmed at first sight, but want to get into editing and creating levels. I assume that's what this editor can do. BF2 is so deep and so much to learn. I installed the F22 Raptor mod, but the com solders just fly it, but don't shoot anything. It's the first error message that appeared in red text when I set this editor up. Also, is this a mission editor?
Here's instructions I found on how to change the text, was wondering if it's the same program. I looked on the net for mission editor, but this editor was the only one that was found:

1. Go into the scenario editor.

2. Load a scenario that is already there.

3. Go to the "Mission" screen (highlighted in red).

4. Select the "Mission" section, below the red part.

5. Select "Text" to go to the text portion.

6. Click "Export" to export. You'll have to give it a name.

7. It will export to the "Game Files" folder.

8. Here, you can look at it. It's a regular old .txt file.

9. You can now edit that and replace any text you want to. Be sure to leave the "^" symbols in the text document. This is a delimiter that separates the sections of the briefing.

10. Once edited the way you want, simply put into the same Game Files folder and Import it. Save your scenario.

I wrote the message above this and accidently sent it before signing in.

Any help would be much appreciated.

So quick to apologise... Nothing new :-(
