I heard of somethign called the Mission Scripter. A tool that would almost script your campaigns for you....I thought it was too good to be true. So I downloaded it, fooled around a little, and got the resulting LUA:


Where you have to capture cp 3.

When I try it, there aren't any cp's to choose so I can't spawn. I think I should add in that part that defines cp's, then adds them, but where would I put that? And is there anything else I have to change?

There's no need to set the cps, since this is coquest. If you did though, it would be in the same place as usual. As for your LUA, I don't see anything wrong with it.

If nothing's wrong with the LUA why can't I spawn?

Not sure. I had that problem once, and I think that it has something to do with a problem loading your world's file, but I don't know.

PS. You do know that
Objective1 = ObjectiveConquest:New{teamATT = ATT, teamDEF = DEF, text = "get that", popupText = "get that now ",AIGoalWeight = 0}
is the name of the text setup in the localization tool, such as level.CCC.objectives.1, not what will apear on your screen, right?

You do need to define the CP's, but it's not required to add them to the conquest objective (conquest:AddCommandPost etc). I think you can define the CP through a scripted objective, but I'm not really sure.

You do? I didn't, and it works just fine.

If you do have to define the cp's, how would you go about doing that?

Putting this right after 'function ScriptPostLoad()': I'm not actually sure if it's required to define CP's, but I find no harm doing so.

Tried it like so:
Munged, got the following BF2log severity 3's:
and
Not sure what the nil values could be, and I have no idea what the second one means at all.

This Depends on how many CP's you actually have. If you have 3, then remove the last line, and if you have 5, you add a line etc.

And your CP names have to be cp1, cp2, cp3 and cp4, or else you must change the '{name = "cp4"}' sections to whatever their names are in ZE.

For example, if you replaced the default cp names with names such as repcp1 and ciscp1, it would look like this: I'm not very good at explaining .

That's ok, I already know how to add and remove cp's from a normal conquest match. This is a campaign mode, though, so I get confused. I can assure you that there are only 4 cps, and that they are named cp1 - cp4.

[Diet Dr. Pepper]. Forgot to mention when I suggested getting this program the following problem:

ReadDataFile("dc:CPT\\CPT.lvl", "CPT_con")

unless you actually made a layer called 'con', that layer does not exist. Its meant to be 'conquest.' If you just changed that before mucking around with that other stuff (done the same thing before, but forgot how to fix) it should work fine.

Clarifying: mission scripter exports scripts with 'con' rather than 'conquest.' You have to manually fix that up.

OMG IT WORKS. Campaign Maps, here I come....

I cannot express how grateful I am for this. Sky, you've earned the #1 spot on the credit list for any campaign map I make.
