How to play [EF] maps on other mods (i.e Modern Combat)
« on: November 30, 2012, 09:48:52 AM »
Like the title of the topic, is that possible to play [EF] maps on other mods? If yes then how?
Thanks ahead for the replies and advices.

it can probably be done, but it would change the vanilla COH.

but heres a link where you can get 9 exciting maps in an installer to be used on COH with or without mods on. :)

You don't need the installer. All you need to do is take any map and put it in the right folder and it will work. For replays to work, you have to edit the .module file so it loads up the maps. Fairly easy really.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

The problem is the maps lose their names and some maps have random storm and rain.

I'd recommend you to unpack the maps, edit "mapname".info according to the maps real name (replace the "$XXXXXX" keys) and repack them in order to know which map you actually play on.

What is the right folder?
