And you put this in addme.lua and boom you have it
It is not a fully working button I'm working on it though.

Wow, great job there, with the recent lua breakthroughs for bf1, I may get it and start modding it too, along side with BF2.

I have no idea on how modding works, so forgive me for the stupid question.
That's a good thing right?
Hunt, the same thing as in BF2?

It is a Shell.lvl LUA
After having done more snooping and testing I've found out addme.lua will override most(No sixth slot is possible with this
) old LUA filesso I present you a third campaign W.I.P.
The button.
What happens when I click on the button.
Now all I need to do is get adding missions to it and we will be good to go(I have been trying they are pesky).

Ohh my god!!.You must find how to add missions there.And we can make new campaign.Amazing!!!Keep working. :themoreyouknow:
Edit:I dont understand nothing from coding but in the begining of the codes that you show us look this:
--------------------------------------
ifs_sp_vbutton_layout = {
-- yTop = -70,
xWidth = 650, -- Made 650 to fix bug 8742 - NM 8/18/04
width = 650,
xSpacing = 10,
ySpacing = 5,
font = "gamefont_large",
buttonlist = {
----------------------------------------
You see that yTop = -70 Maybe if you change it you way seperate the hunt mode from the other names in the list.Well dont know i just think so...

I desprately need shell.req and then I can ger hunt mode working and the new campain(I need it for adding new luas and romoving ifs_sp). And those values control the vertical slant it gives the menu(At least thats what happend when I messed with them).

Okay so to get rid of the pesky graphic monster that we create from adding another button to ifs_sp this is going to be the development I'm going to do for it then give the source to you guys so you lot can do what you want with it.
Development Plan
Ifs_SP layout.
Re-localize the Clone Wars campaign to "Light Side Of The Force" it will be turned into a button that takes you to another menu screen to pick from all the good campaigns.
Re-localize the Galactic Civil War campaign to "Dark Side Of The Force" it will be turned into a button that takes you to another menu screen to pick from all the dark campaigns :vader2: .
Galactic Conquest Stays the same.
Instant Action will be changed to a button that takes you to a select screen for modes.
Of course those are just the stuff that is planned after all the poking about I've done it should be
possible to do them all but I'm not 100% about that.
So now I leave you to go try to do this, once more if you have shell.req please post it I probably need it
.
PS. if you use any of the stuff in this thread it would be nice to put this in your readme.
With special thanks to.

The only person who has shell.req for SWBF1 would be psych0fred. It was never released to the public. Doesn't matter anyway as that still doesn't give up the decompiled SWBF1 lua scripts necessary to do much. You can build a shell.req manually by figuring out what each filename is in shell.lvl and by using SWBF2's as a template. I would suggest grabbing SWBF2's shell.req and comparing it with SWBF2's shell.lvl, then you'll know what to look for in order to make a SWBF1 shell.req.

I have done that sort of thing before with mission.lvls
Although, alot of guessing is involved
If I had BF1, I would volunteer, but seeing as I dont...

He did post the BF1 shell.req on his site but trying to access it now gives you a nice 404 thats why I'm wondering if anyone still has it. As for building a shell.req manully I suppose that does appear to be my only option so I'll atempt it.

That would be neat once I have this working.
@Teancum I'm stupid I never thought of doing that.
Well I hope to get this working today if I don't well their is tomorrow
I've just thought up some ways to get this working with out shell.req(I hope they work)

Yeah it is I'm working on getting it I've got some of it now but main it is hard work gong through it to get the stuff. Cool if you finish them before I get anything done on this would you like to help me with this stuff?.
In stuff that is related to the creation of this yesterday cause this kept happening
(Except I hit the CPU) I started to fool around and managed to get new movies and music playing in the background over writing the old ones pictures are coming later.
EDIT: Thanks to Teancum's advice I now have shell.req as pschy0fred has fixed all the broken downloads on his site because I e-mailed him.
