This is odd...

Post by M.O.D. »

I was looking through the .lvl files and I found cockpitveiws for almost every vehicle in the game... I wonder why they didn't include these...

its coded in the .odf files what cockpit views which goes to this and that - and I'm not sure if its possible to edit .odf files with Hexeditting.

Besides, they probably hasn't made all of the cockpit views - but since they're 'working' on them at the release date, I guess we should hope that they're in the Patch? :P

M.O.D., have you succeeded in getting the textures associated to these "cockpit views" ? :|

Never thought that cockpit views were hidden in SWBF2. I was so dissapointed when they weren't in game. It would be great if they were put into the patch or if they were modded into the game through hex-editing. Could it be done through hex-editing?

I'd probably get motion sickness playing as the A-Wing with cockpit views. O__O

hahaha

probably :wink:

I guess is that they just never made all of the cockpit views at the release - and what's worse than some vehicles without cockpit views, when others have? well, to make it 'look' like it was a part of their plan, I think they just decided to remove the cockpits :P

While hoping cockpit views for Star Wars Battlefront II vehicles were hidden into Sides' *.LVL files, I've hex-edited one of them - "rep.lvl" - in order to find textures affiliated to these "hidden stuffs", but unfortuntely, I've not got occurencies, which means either those first-person views have not been textured or they do not exist at all...

also, you can go into first person with vehicles... but there is no cockpit view, so it kinda sucks...
