Is it possible to mod or extend existing MOHAA maps?

Post by [T.L.Battalion] EvilAsh »

Hello. I was wondering....is it was possible to mod or extend existing MOHAA maps? In particular Destroyed Village. We run constant Destroyed Village on our clan servers. Is it possible to make the map larger? For example,make holes in the walls at the back of the church,then extend the wooded area back there into a playable area? Or to make use of all the buildings on the map? Not all of the buildings are accessable. Can more buildings be added?

I am VERY new to map modding/mapping so please be gentle! :D

thanks

No that is not possible, you can only mod the existing maps by script, which means adding models like boxes, vehicles etc. (more ino about this: use "search"). You can not add new buildings, make holes in walls etc. They are made using brushes (blocks) and these can not be serverside scripted.

Anyway, i you got the original editor files of the map, then it would be possible to make/change everything you want in the map. But that won't be serverside anymore.

First of all, welcome to .Map! :)

Yes, it is possible to modify the original Allied Assault Multiplayer maps as you see fit. EA was kind enough to release the original .map files so you can edit them in Mohradiant.

I have them available for download from my website:

Keep in mind that the version you create will have to be downloaded (like any regular custom map) by the people who visit your server. Good Luck!

Hey yea welcome to .map. First off i would like to say the multiplayer stock maps are easy to mod (just get the .map files from ea) as for the single player maps those area bit harder and I have not quite figured them out yet. (note: I am a begining mapper my self so be cautious at to heading my advice) lol
