Add new modes to existing maps?

Post by ARC_Commander »

Hey everybody, I'm still working on BFX. But it's the end of the school year, and that means work takes priority. So I haven't been able to post updates for a while.

Now to my question - how does one add, say, an XL mode to a pre-existing map (the standard ones)? Basically, I'm trying to make less conflicts with online mode by restricting BFX to XL mode, which I'd like to add to every map.

We were still planning on giving you a dedicated BFX mode in the pack, do you not want to do that? It'll be in the next release and I can walk you through setting it up as a mode for all maps, even Convo Pack ones if you want. If you do still want to do that just work on the sides right now and I'll get you rolling with the luas later on.

Oh, I still want the BFX mode, of course. On the Convo Pack maps as well. Help with that would be appreciated, too. This is just in the meantime, so I can test out the mod properly. The sides are pretty much complete.

I can build you a shell with BFX mode supported if you want it. I'd need a game mode icon, the mode name, the short name (I know it already: BFX), and a description of the game mode.
