I'm not positive, but copy the world file of course into a new map, make sure to change the name to your mods 3 character name. Move everything from:

"C:\BF2_ModTools\assets\worlds\FEL\odf\" to "C:\BF2_ModTools\data_***\Worlds\***\world1\odf\"
and
"C:\BF2_ModTools\assets\worlds\FEL\msh\" to "C:\BF2_ModTools\data_***\Worlds\***\world1\msh\"

Also, move these:

"C:\BF2_ModTools\assets\scripts\FEL\" to "C:\BF2_ModTools\data_***\Common\scripts\***\"

Mod, munge, and play.

when you copy over the shipped scripts to your scripts do you have to edit the lua because it uses the original shipped map but i want it to use an edited version. do you have to change:
Quote:
ReadDataFile("fel\\fel1.lvl", "fel1_conquest")
to
Quote:
ReadDataFile("dc:fel\\fel1.lvl", "fel1_conquest")
or anything?
