A game engine for games like Battlefield (an update)

 

A game engine for games like Battlefield (an update)

Most notable features:


- New vehicles, weapons, artillery pieces (this is not only the amount but there are different types of them.. this was also made to make it more historically accurate)
- The maps have been modified for a more positional warfare (more bunkers, sandbags, barbwire, stationary pieces, etc.)
- The LMG class is now separated from the Assault class
- Object collision fixes: In the original game the bullets could often hit something invisible in the air. This is now fixed (well, at most part).
- Gun sights (with range marks), artillery sights for indirect fire, etc.
- Grenade and stuff hilites (a thrown grenade is now much easier to notice)
- Bullet and projectile speeds, more realistic damage system and armor configuration
- No planes (I just didn't have a controller at that time, so I just left them aside completely)

 


Installation: 

 
Install the mod to the folder where your game is installed (by default it picks the path in Program Files, but if you have installed the game to a different folder then you should adjust the path accordingly).

It's been awhile since the last update. What has been done?

- The vehicles (at least the system to build them: separate parts which you can setup by yourself). Some work is still required here. Only the wheeled and tracked vehicles are currently present. No weapons.

- The UI

- An in-game map

- Some graphical tweaks (added terrain shadows, increased the view distance)

- The animation system (only the tank track so far)

What's next?

- Player animation and a better player controller

- Water

- Sound

- (Maybe) multiplayer..

 

I guess it may take the whole winter. xD I'll probably post an update when just something be done..

As usual, the demo is available at: Imagetools.itch.io

If you get any errors, feel free to post them here.

Battlefield 1942 Custom Objects BC Files

Strasbourg BC Files


Black Mamba re-released the Battlecraft files needed to correctly display custom objects from three Battlefield 1942 maps: Battle of Britain, Coral Sea and Liberation of Caen.

The original credit for these Battlecraft files comes from a modder named Dweller_Benthos. Unfortunately his personal website where the files were hosted has disappeared.

As some of you may know, these map files feature exclusive objects. For example, the Ju88A bomber plane is only found in Battle of Britain, as is the Pegasus bridge static object in Liberation of Caen.

With this workaround, you can use the objects in any map. Note however that to make the objects appear in-game, you will need to add their appropriate archives. This workaround is ONLY for displaying the custom objects in Battlecraft 1942, and adding them to your maps.




Download Link is here: Battlefield_1942_Custom_Objects_BC_Files.zip

Please report any bug you may have when using the files.  OP updated.


The hg-clan.blogspot.com site that thank you Black Mamba. We would like to say thank you and hope that you continue to inspire us with your creations and events.
