I am not trying to mini mod. But just a heads up to some of our newer guys. Notice the thread was started almost 3 years ago. Take note of dates, so you dont bump and resurrect ancient threads.

this should really be locked, imo :D

It's okay-- the Complete "How To" Thread links here so it's actually one that should get bumped.

Unfortunately you can't unless they released the source files. If it's just a bunch of lvl files you're stuck.

i don't think it was explained and i'm a noob modder so i think this has something to do with editing factions but how do you change the skins and add new units???

this probably sounds really noobie but yeah i'd rather like to know...

I keep getting script errors (when i try to create or open projects). What does that mean and how do I fix it?

EDIT
i forgot to move it into the same folder as battlefront1. I also had to edit the bfbuilder file with notepad and change some of the code.

I'm sorry, I'm pretty certain this qualifies as resurrecting the thread, but I have a question:

Is it possible to make it so that any unit carries more than four weapons? I've experimented around with this, both with units and vehicles, but I've been unable to figure it out so far. If anybody has any way to do this, I'd appreciate the help.

Not possible AFAIK. I've tried it, game crashes. BF2 solves this by incorporating WEAPONSECTION into units.

You could have started a new thread for this though.
