Can you find the instruction file? I know a lot of people might get confused about the whole CFG thing, and the fact that DC Final is broken down into three parts. If somebody writes a (really nice) tutorial on how to use them, I'll sticky it in the tutorials section and host the downloads. |

| Post subject: | Setting Up Battlecraft Properly for use with Desert Combat |
---Tutorial: Setting Up Battlefield 1942 for proper use with Desert Combat and DC Final--- Once you have downloaded the latest public Battlecraft Files from the downloads section, extract the contents of this Zip Archives to a location that will allow you to edit them, a good choice is your Desktop where you can easily find, access, and edit the files. Once they are extracted to the desktop, its time to edit the mods included in the package so that we can use them with Battlecraft, without invisible Objects or other missing items. Lets start with Desert Combat, since it is the strangest of the mods in the package. **DESERT COMBAT** Desert Combat is our beloved Modern Warfare mod for Battlefield 1942, and during the course of its development it was decided that Desert Combat would use its own Sub-Folder to separate its files from Vanilla Battlefield 1942, however even after creating this sub-folder the DC team still placed content outside of this directory and thus caused us, the modders, some heartache. Lets begin setting up Desert Combat for Battlecraft, Navigate your computer, by using the mouse; to the directory: C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\DesertCombat\ or C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 1942\Mods\DC Final\ Once inside these folders there will be another folder set, the folder which we are concerned with is Archives. For this part you will need to have downloaded the Battlefield Mod Development Toolkit and must have WinRFA, a utility for extracting Readable Folder Archives; Installed. If all above is true, open up WinRFA where we will begin extracting Desert Combats mod files so that we can use them in Battlecraft. The files inside Desert Combats Archives folder that we will be concerned with are the StandardMesh.rfa. For normal BF1942 mods the following steps are not needed, but Desert Combats sub-folder hierarchy makes it necessary for us to do the following steps. Lets open up WinRFA, from the top of WinRFA select File, Open, and locate Desert Combats Standardmesh.rfa, once located: Open it. A list of the files contained in this Readable folder archive will appear. From the top of WinRFA select Extract, All, and extract the files to a place where you will be able to find, edit, and repack these files during the following steps. Once it is finished extracting, minimize WinRFA and find the Standardmesh Folder you have just extracted. Inside this folder will be another Call Desert Combat, and then more sub-folders concerning Vehicles, Weapons, and Static Objects. All of the folders and files inside the Desert Combat sub-folder must be moved out of it, and back into the Standardmesh folder you extracted. If done correctly, all files that were in the Desert Combat sub-folder of the Standardmesh Folder, should have moved into the Standardmesh folder. If this is true, you can delete the Desert Combat sub-folder. Now that we have moved all of the DC files to a place where Battlecraft can find them, open up winRFA, select Pack, Directory, and locate the Standardmesh folder we had previously extracted. Once selected, return to the DesertCombat/Archives Directory you originally found it in, and pack the standardmesh.rfa along side the existing one, as Standardmesh_001 or _002.rfa. If done correctly DesertCombat will now have two Standardmesh.rfa files, one for the mod, and one for Battlecraft, and Battlecraft should be able to find the files, and spawn the objects. Repeat these steps for DC Final if you so wish. Then do as Pink Balls has instructed by placing the LST files into your Battlcraft 1942 Directory inside C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlecraft 1942\ and start the mod in the program. |

Archi, you are a modding god. I thought it was Refractor Flat Archive, though? |

Yes but I've only ever heard it called that, never Readable Folder Archive... |
