It's for hunt, but the same principle applies.

Can you call it something else instead of hunt?

Yup. In your addme.lua add in this

Hidden/Spoiler:

change = {era_c = { name="Name of your mode", icon2="Whatever icon you want" },},}

Mine looks like this

Hidden/Spoiler:

--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

            for flag, value in pairs(newFlags) do

                mission[flag] = value

            end

        end

    end

end

--insert totally new maps here:

local sp_n = 0

local mp_n = 0

sp_n = table.getn(sp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1] = { isModLevel = 1, mapluafile = "HBA%s_%s", era_g = 1, era_c = 1, era_f = 1, era_w = 1, mode_con_g = 1, mode_con_c  = 1, mode_con_f  = 1, mode_con_w  = 1, change = {era_c = { name="Gungan Mode", icon2="mode_icon_tdm" },},}

mp_n = table.getn(mp_missionselect_listbox_contents)

mp_missionselect_listbox_contents[mp_n+1] = sp_missionselect_listbox_contents[sp_n+1]

Make sure not to have any typos and it looks exactly like mine with the commas and brackets.

where do you putt the icons?

if you are usinga shipped/convopackmode the icons are set automatically. if you want a custom icon, you should read the 1.3 patch documentation (should be in battlefronts gamedata folder after installing the patch). it should include a tutorial about adding custom icons

there is a icon in the sides folder that I want to use can I use that one?

DarthD.U.C.K. · Post by **DarthD.U.C.K.** » Sat Sep 18, 2010 12:32 pm

you can use anything you want as long as it fulfills the standards of modeicons. i have noidea what they are though but that should be mentioned in the tutorial
