Removing Non-Weapon based awards [Solved]

Post by PvtParts »

Okay, so I'd like to totally remove the non-weapon based awards (i.e. damage bonus, damage decrease, defense bonus).

Now, I remember a thread about removing the sounds/effects - which I would be content with; but I cannot find it.

So, does anyone know how I can remove the awards totally, or remove the sounds/effects?

Removing award effects permanently

This was copied from the relevant thread:


It comes down to munging a new global ingame.lvl with a very slight modification.

1. Create a new world
2. Go to your world's directory once it is finished munging and find ingame.req in the Data_xxx/Common folder
3. Open ingame.req using Notepad and scroll down until you find "com_sfx_buffed_defense" and "com_sfx_buffed_offense" ... delete both of these!
4. Munge
5. A new ingame.lvl will now be found in the _LVL_PC folder of your map's directory...copy it, then replace the ingame.lvl found in the _LVL_PC folder of the actual Battlefront 2/GameData/Data directory (backup the old one just to be safe)

Voila! No more stupid blue halo and red lightning. You'll still earn the awards just as before, you just won't see or hear any effects when you do so. I hope this is helpful.
