Battlefield Modding Tutorials BFMODS

I've been following a tutorial on how to generate a contentcrc32.con file for my mod. The tutorial is available right here:

It says the file can be created from a console. Which kind of console exactly it doesn't specify, but I assume it's the in-game console. So I start my mod up, and type the following command in the console: bf1942 +generateMapListForCrcContent 1 +game <mod name> ( I replaced the mod name with my mod's name, BM'sTDM). But everytime I enter the command, it says I'm using the wrong syntax...

In another tutorial, it says the same command can be run from the "bf1942 install directory". How am I supposed to run a command from a directory?
Here's the link for the second tutorial:

When running the command in the "cmd" window, you need to have navigated to the BF1942 install directory already.

So, Start --> Run --> cmd --> cd "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 1942\" --> your crc-generator command.

Will this recognize new game modes? For example I've made a folder in my Hellendoorn map called DM, a file called "dm.con" in the GameTypes folder and another file in the main map folder called "dm.con" for Death Match. When I start up Server Manager, the new game mode is not recognized, and worst, the new contentcrc32.con file I generated doesn't even have a line for Death Match, only the traditional game modes...

Hmm.. it doesn't seem to work as I have to Ctrl + Alt + Delete myself out of the game everytime I try to run the new .bat file. It loads at 100 %, then freezes, whatever the game mode I choose.

It shouldn't load anything...you probably did something wrong. AFAIK it shouldn't load the map at all if done correctly.

Instead of a batch file, you can also add the commands to a shortcut of the bf1942.exe. Just create a shortcut of it, edit its properties and append the commands to the "Target" line.
Example:

"X:\...\Battlefield 1942\Bf1942.exe" +getContentCRC 1 +hostServer 1 +restart 1 +level Battle_of_Britain +gamePlayMode +game BF1942

Again change the levelname to your level and don't forget to change +game BF1942 to the name of your mod.

Yes it loads the level on which I added a new game mode following freddys method. The loading screen of my level is all white and I get a CTD/freeze.
