I'd like to....If you all can give me some help - 109dude - 23.11.2008

I wasn't sure where to post this so I'm shoving it here

I really want to start making mods but I'm all Confusedhock: by the fact that I cant get anyone to help me out on figuring out how to do this kind of stuff.... I really wanna figure this out so I can increase the rate that AAA cranks out mods.... SO I'M BEGGING FOR HELP RIGHT HERE AND NOW!!! Please help me figure out how to make this kind of stuff.....

moved to proper forum section ....


btw, good luck with your quest ....

and little advice , be sure to learn all basics regarding mod file structure , manipulating with .ini / properties files and have some knowledge with 3d modeling / graphic editors ( depends on interest) before making such request.

Right...... you haven't a clue how the mods are made....but you want to make some.... and you want someone to teach you how.....

all those with the knowledge are spending all their time making mods....and don't have time to teach

they learned by trial and error...as you should

when you have shown that you are trying on your own and have come across problems...people will try to help

we don't want to churn out more mods....but produce those with quality

quality is always better than quantity :wink:

Sure.

I'll be with you in... two weeks... be sure.

first thing to do is download the sfs extractor ( viewtopic.php?t=2268 + updated filelist: (The link is inoperative)) and study the inner structure of the sfs files where game data is stored

You also gonna need the tga converter so that you can view the extracted images: (The link is inoperative)
requires .net 2.0 and latest dirext x install

Consider yourself lucky mate, i asked for help and got none, the only one who said he would give me any kind of help was magpie, and even he said to me that wont be till mid 2009 Sad so if you get it in two weeks then well done.

Maybe its because i dont want to make european mods lol

I have learned most i needed to know from the tutorials, bear in mind that i have only been here less than a month, and already made a plane and some armaments, but cant get it into my game for testing.


- fly_zo - 23.11.2008

@Saburo Sakai :

do not turn this into PTO/ETO/EFTO discrimination whining thing

no one has nothing against PTO planes ..... just wait your turn

I did explain all about it in PM so i don't see how this kind of posts will do you any good .... or give help sooner .

I am not, but in fairness i was told aprox 6 months, and then 109 asks and is told 2 weeks. After reading through the many posts here that ask for help i have noticed that as far as help goes, it is a case of work it out for yourself, so i have read all the tutorials and find myself stuck on just one thing. being able to get my mods into my game for testing, thats all.

I know you said what you did through PM and know it is NOT personal, but after seeing this post , one could see how it could be interpreted. :wink:

In the world of Il-2, two weeks is more akin to two years or never-ever. It never means fourteen days. :wink:

2 weeks is an old ww2 combat sim joke, ive seen it here, back in aces high 2, fighter ace. and so-on.


- Saburo Sakai - 23.11.2008

ahhh, i see, like the old maddox 2 weeks. lol Smile Smile
