DC Road to Rome and Secret Weapons Addons

Post by HairyRussianDude »

This came up in the server the other day. I confirm these worked for me to add the 1942 expack maps to DC single player. I have no idea if they work for multi though. Perhaps they could be added to the downloads section?

Thanks Hairy. TheoNeo and I had discussed doing something like that last year. Maybe not even "require the full RTR & SW expansions be installed" but even just "steal the maps and put normal BF1942 / DC objects and textures on them" as a "quick" way to make new/different maps for DC.

But this option is good too; we had considered it, but could only find older circa 2000 beta DC references to such a "DC mini-mod on top of the actual RTR & SW expansions." The one you linked to is 2004, so it has a decent chance of working with released updates. Will have to give it a try locally and see what challenges there are.

Finding "free" time to investigate such things is currently the biggest challenge for me.

No problem Trench. That would be sweet if the maps could be added without needing the expacks installed!
I moreso tossed the links up for anyone who enjoys single player. Every so often I need my BF fix but the servers are dead or on crappy maps so I play single.
