Alright, thanks again, though it seems to be something on my side. Somehow my internet has a problem with that file, or maybe, online storages today. Same problem with dropbox. I'm gonna check again tomorrow.

EDIT: I've got it.

Though even with this handy tool, I can't progress with my project.

I need to edit the background box of the inventory/item/weapon selection seen when scrolling with the mousewheel. In stock BF2, it is that yellowish, plain, ugly box displayed behind every gun or item icon.

I swear I searched, found an looked at every single texture file of the game but I can not find this one. Its a miracle. If anybody can point me to this texture, wethere it is a tga, dds or part of an Atlas file, it would be most appreciated. I'm close to going completely mad because I literally spent the last three days on that. single. thing.

To clarify things, the red marked area is the texture I am looking for.

If you know where to find it, please tell me.

Darman, see Menu_client.zip, \HUD\Texture\Ingame\Weapons\Icons\Hud\Selection, there you will find those "selection icons" for every weapon (yes, that "yellowish, plain, ugly box" is not a standalone texture).

Thanks, I actually "found" it and also the reason why I was never able to find it. It is a scripted box -.-

While I was browsing up and down the Menu_client.zip, the file in question was indeed a .con ("Menu_server.zip\HUD\HudSetup\Basic\HudElementsWeaponSelect.con")

I vaguely remember something like this, can you just click "ok" and it disappears or does it exit automatically?

I think I remember now, try installing this: (a necessary patch for 3ds Max 9)

http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autodesk-3ds-max-9-service-pack-2.html


It worked, at least for me. :)

Nice!

If you are unsure you installed it correctly, just make sure (on the top line) it reads this:

Wow, they really do not want to support modding in any shape or form anymore. I guess that's a thanks for all those extra copies they sold thanks to the modding community.  ::)

That's a lot of knowledge accumulated over the years lost... Maybe we could get someone from EA to upload an archived version for the community to host somewhere?

Hopefully someone can, there were A LOT of good beginner tutorials on that site.

I know the FH devs probably have some good tutorials saved. Same with the PR devs. Both sites still have a wealth of information tho.
