BF2_Modtools on Steam problem and addme problems [SOLVED]

giftheck · Post by **giftheck** » Fri Oct 23, 2009 5:36 pm

I'm running the Steam version of BF2, so whenever I try to use the BF2_ModTools.exe application as the debug tool, I always get the "Insert CD 1" dialog. Is there a way to fix this?

EDIT: Solved thanks to Teancum.

It'll fix your problem

Ah! Thanks!

Okay, so it tells me that my problem is an invalid addme.script file. When I munge, I get this error:

Code: Select all

addme.lua:40: unexpected symbol near ','

Should I post the addme.lua so somebody can go over what's wrong with it?

Indubitably.

Okay, here's the addme lua I'm using:

Hidden/Spoiler:

-- recursively merges the second given table into the first given table

function MergeTables( mission, newFlags )

   --for each table entry,

   local array = type({})

   for key,value in pairs(newFlags) do      

      --check for nested tables

      if type(value) == array then

         --mission must have this key as a table too

         if type(mission[key]) ~= array then

            mission[key] = {}

         end

         --merge these two tables recursively

         MergeTables(mission[key], value)

      else

         --the key is a simple variable, so simply store it

         mission[key] = value

      end

   end

end

--Search through the missionlist to find a map that matches mapName,

--then insert the new flags into said entry.

--Use this when you know the map already exists, but this content patch is just

--adding new gamemodes (otherwise you should just add whole new entries to the missionlist)

function AddNewGameModes(missionList, mapName, newFlags)

   for i, mission in missionList do

      if mission.mapluafile == mapName then

         MergeTables(mission, newFlags)

      end

   end

end

--insert the new gamemodes or maps here for pre-existing maps:

--The following modes: Campaign, Conquest, 1Flag CTF, 2-Flag CTF, Space Assault, Hero Assault, Hunt
