Hallo all im Lucky from australia im new to here.

Ok this is all i want to do.

I want to be able to test maps and mods on my PC. I just want to know how to be able to run a single player game thing were only i can play on it and test mods and maps.

I have no clue how to do any of this or scripting a server cfg, but this is what i want to do. Test a MOD and have it play on 3 maps it was made for. IS there like a cfg i can download and someone just tell me what too change so the MOD play's and the maps to?
If there is no cfg file to help me. I will need someone to go threw it with me in a step by stpe prosses and dont use to complex words

I want to test the ETfortress mod and some of its maps.

Hope that helps

You can also find a full installer with ET, ETF 1.6 and all current maps here. This installer have been added just a few days ago so it should contain a pretty up-2-date package.

Sorry schnoog but i havent found ETF in the wolffiles database. (<- add it

Ok. SO i cose to do a quick test to see if it works. I loaded etpro mod, went to host game and stuff. Clicked start, after that it came up with this error here is a pic.


(sorry for the pic being real dark.)

In case you cant read it, It syas this.
"BG_indexforstring: Uknown token 'NOT' : (animations/scripts/human_base.script, line 3351"

After i clicked rcoonect a few times...no sussces.
Then i exited ET and re-opend ET and just started a normal server with no MOD just the normal ETMOD. That worked BUT i could not see any the skins of all the weapons and stuff? How do i fix this? Also how do i mkae it unpure server. IM new to all this.

ok..so umm how do i get the standed skins? cause when i just start a server with the normal standed ET mod it still doesn't have the normal skins (the only weapons witch have no skin on them are the MP40, thompson, pistols, knife, sten and FG40. They are just coloured in black and orange squares)? Anyway to fix this?also im running a 2.60B patch.

*another edit* Ok i downloaded another weapon skin to see if that work..but no just black and ornage squares still.

*EDIT* Also what software do you use to change the look of some weapons? Cause i want to edit some skins on some weapons? and maby change the sounds.

Sorry new to this forum so im not quiet used to it yet and were to find the software.

ok. im new to shadeding..and that complex stuff.
but how do i get the standed weapons skin to work when i host a server? and how do i open a pak0.pk file to edit (etc) I think i would need to try and catch up with a pro person to run me thoughh it all .

Good news
I fixed the weapon skin problem when i hosted a server AND manged to excstract all the files form the pak0.pk file
but i have no clue how to open the weap files and other named files witch i've never seen before. All i want to be able to do know is to edit the thompson/MP40 gun, Its a simple edit all i want is it to have -*DBD*- written on the guns to see? So what software do i use to edit the weap and other things? like the helmat? Then how do i save the file to a PK.3 file so it like a mini-mod? (not doing helmet anymore as i said in earler post)

-thanks lucky

P.S stoerfaktor and thoenix you guys are f-ing smart xD
