Have a question for an idea:
Is it possilbe to make a custom rfa archive with often used custom objects which apear every more in new maps? new maps always become bigger and bigger size, so mapper may integrate the new rfa in the interstate.cfg and the objects in the .lst and keep the size of new maps smaller. And guys like me, who have no idea how to integrate custom objects in a map could easier work with new objects. boats, planes, transparent objects (for example tubes), jump pads and slides (like on lakeside), the roads from ftrack. there are sooo much ... ask for permission on some selfmade objects and go go go!
Sounds easy. Is it possible?

not sure what boats planes u are talking about all the ones i know are in either bf1942 or is82 lst. transparent objects are done by making a new texture for that object and the jump pads are done by adding a geomtry line in the staticObjects.con file i.e. Object.create steplank1_m1 Object.absolutePosition 685.95/329.36/909.64 Object.rotation 0.00/0.00/0.00 Object.geometry.scale 4.00/12.00/17.00 thats the bouncy plank, the object should be in ur list u just have to edit that con file to make it bounce, its a good idea tho , nice thinking. i was also thinking that we should have a custom skins for stratos buggy and all other vehicles in one downloadable zip with a pic of each, there are soo many now tho that it would take whoever done that a while. they are fairly easy to get tho if u extract whatever map they are in , but would be nice to see all the options in one place.

I get your idea Lemming, but the thing is this would have to be realeased as a public patch. It's no problem to do that, but would people want it, and would we be allowed to make such a patch? Just as easy to integrate the stuff in the maps.
This is a great idea, and something I have been thinking on. I have many custom objects now and a new patch would make it very easy for everyone to place new stuff in maps.. with BC. I am happy to head this up and produce the new patch. It will also be a great way of drumming up a bit more attention for the mod too. IS82 v1.9!

ooooooo 1.9 yeh that would make a lot of publicity but with a new patch would have to come new maps, which would mean more effort for a lot of mappers, i know flamin has a map to put in it tho . lol . does anyone else have a worthy map for it ? i could keep my second release of GC for it if its going to go ahead lol but that would prolong the release of my map for about another month i would say.

Hehe, I guess this mod is considered "dead" and therefore free for all to do whatever they wish. Yeah a patch would be neat. Fix some of the errors and bugs in game. Like the annoying raceboat exit point, maybe tweak the coding of the chopper and redo UVWmap on the stratos (SkinS!!!). +++++
