From the origional .rfa or all of them?
Which do I extract then repack?

umm... object spawns templates.con or object spawns.con?
It would seem from the code in each that object spawns.con would be the place to put the code y/n?
Thanks man.

I extracted the object spawns .con and ost .con from the origional file and oo3
I added my code at the bottom before the 'end if'
The server crashes when I load the map

here is the object spawns.con (single Player)
My code is at the end in red.

I next added only the object spawns.con with the new code added and packed to market_garden_007.rfa
crashed again ...
hmmmm.....

I got it!! (I used market garden_003 as my template for the code)
and almost by myself lol!!
Now market garden has axis planes too.
Parachute spawn next.

That's something like SpawnAsParaTrooper 1

Gah...malestrom, make a new thread in questions/need assistance...its hard to keep track of in here.

(P.S. explain exactly what you're going after when u post!!)

Sorry
Im just so excited to finally get a few things working.
I added code for chutes to market garden coop and conquest too for my b-17 location
You should visit my server and see it when its done
We had a load of fun 8 players and bots to 28 players with stangs and 109s today.
Your helps been awesome.
Im figuring the code out slowly but surely.
feel free to edit my posts of all that code.
I thought it might be relevant to the next noob who came along.

Very nice thanks a bunch. Another question, is there a way to make a single player game or co-op game with battlecraft Vietnam?

I did exactly as you said and I have the two parts of code that say Modding/bfVietnam/levels/MyVietnam/Conquest/ObjectSpawns.con and Templates.con in a folder located in my documents. I now change the code for my nitrous motor but then how do I put the code back in my lvls folder or do I have too? I changed the code after the last line that states objectTemplate.teamOnVehicle 0 for the two different types of jeep I wanted the K rocket engine in. Is this correct I just leave it out of the original file and name it MyVietnam_001.rfa since you stated the next map number would be 001 or better?
