Anyone knows what's up with battlefieldsingleplayer.com right now? It's been down around a week now. I'm getting worried. It's a prime time for modding these days and it's a shame the site is down.

Hey, not sure, maybe it's getting too much traffic since everyone's staying home lol. Join us on our Discord tho, since that's where most of us are at and can help answer questions etc...

Regarding heightmaps.. Is the greyscale percentile based? Or can it be more detailed with using the full 255 value scale? Based on IRL heightmap, the place I'm gonna map has its highest point at 243 meters. The map will also contain sea. If I set terrainheight to 255 and have the highest peak at 100% white, I can set the waterlevel at 12 meters and have realistic height right? Will it still only care about the percent value so I will get 2.55 meter jumps from each change in terrain?

If it's not becoming smooth with 1 meter=1 pixel value change, then am I at least thinking correct in terms of getting the height realistic?
Will 243 m=100% white, editor terrainheight 255, editor waterlevel 12 end up correct?

@nysa. For some reason, I get an error message when I respond to your PM. Hopefully you got it tho.

Hello,
Could you help me with something? How I could import "331" Tiger skin from Ramelle so that I'd use it on Seelow, Berlin maps?

Never mind if this will require something more advanced than Notepad. But any help is much appreciated.

Best regards

Yup, it's easy. All you have to do is go to the the "331" Tiger skin (in fh2\objects\Vehicles\Land\DE\Tiger_late\textures) then copy it and paste it back into the same folder but re-name it to "Tiger1_LATE_132_c_seelow" that _seelow on the end will let it only be used on that map.

that might be because they're zipped into 9 different folders. look inside fh2\objects_vehicles_client_land_de_7\Vehicles\Land\DE\Tiger_late\textures and you should find Tiger1_LATE_c_ramelle.dds. just duplicate that file and re-name it to Tiger1_LATE_c_seelow.dds
