Extracting Modtools to a different place

Post by Smoosh »

I am having a problem with my modtools: everytime I try to munge, it doesn't do it and says: /Utilities/Bin/x86 was unexpected at this time. So someone told me I need to extract Modtools to a different place, how do I do that if the d/l from starwarsbattlefront2.filefront.com is an auto-extracting file?

Any help is much appreciated.

It gives you an option to where you're installing when you install the Tools. It should be located in C:\BF2_Modtools ;)

Since lots of the tools in the SWBF2 modtools are dos-based, you can't place them in any folder with a space in it. For example:

WRONG:
C:\Program Files\Lucasarts\Star Wars Battlefront II\Mod Tools

RIGHT:
C:\Games\SWBF2\Tools

As long as the address has no spaces.

Mines D:\BF2_ModTools.

If you want to move the modtools, just drag and drop, no need to reinstall it.
