How do I find what ODF goes with a certain msh file?

Post by Dark117 »

I know when i open an .odf file it tells me what .msh file it is related too, but since there not names the same it is hard to find the .odf file for a .msh file. I know im probly looking for it wrong and that i should look for the .odf first then find its .msh BUT. I found yvn_towerturrent.msh and i want the tower turrent in my map, but all i can find is the .msh file for the yavin tower turrent. I cannot find the .odf file for the yavin tower turrent. I would appreciate some help in this matter, and this is probley a silly question to ask but i still would like some answers.

:oops: Thnaks in advance,

It's in the tur.lvl file. I'll let you figure it out from there.

im looking in C:\BF2_ModTools\data_YSG\Sides\tur\odf is this the correct place? I'd like a more specific answer and im tired of all this looking, i need straight forward answers and i need more people help so i can actuly get something done. I cant sit on the computer forever so i need straight forward answers to all my problems. The time i spend on the computer is spent modding and i cant get anywhere without answers. Please be straight forward. Thnak you.

Try searching that odf folder for "tower" or yav and try a few times, also check in the assets/worlds/yav folder, and even in the bf1 assets if you have them . . .

i checked yav folder theres just the .msh no odf, and the tur (turrent) folder contains most of the turrent stuff and i think all of them are towers =P.

Try tur_bldg_tower. I don't think it uses the same .msh you're talking about, but it is the building called "Yavin Tower Turret." I've never been able to figure out how to localize that particular turret, though, so.... meh. But it'll work.
