Installing and setting up the bf2editor. by Caeno, Lobo and Fenring
Install the bf2editor The latest version can be found here: You should have no problems installing this on Windows XP 32bit, just extract the zip archive and run the setup, of course you need battlefield 2 installed first. There are some problems with newer versions of the windows operating system:
Lightmapsamples: Forgotten Hope 2: http://xfh2.ifihada.com/betatester-samples/fh2-samples-1.0.046.zip Extract and copy the "objects" folder to your battlefield 2/bf2editor/ directory.
Extract client archives To make the bf2editor work with Forgotten Hope 2 we must first extract the client archives into folders, otherwise your editor will crash on startup, go to your battlefield 2 directory and mods/fh2:
If you get a "File already exists" click "Yes to all" to overwrite
You should now have these directories in your mods/fh2 directory
Object spawners Now we must install the Forgotten Hope 2 objects spawners, otherwise you cant place tanks, airplanes or other players controlled objects. Download the fh2_spawners.zip and extract to your and copy to your battlefield 2 directory.
Now you should be able to start the bf2editor and selecting mod "fh2"
If you get a error you must probably have missed something in the extraction steps, or forgotten to install the object spawners.
Load all mod content Well inside the editor select the Mod Manager, check all content and click ok, this can take a while be patient.
Congratulations you can now begin your mapping for Forgotten Hope 2
