The difference between both mods is that this one is made of stolen work from BRP. That, and jealousy (over BRP's popularity at the time over his and his friend's mods, and now, other popular mods too), bullying and threatening anyone who doesn't agree with that or his narrative of this fact into submission (including moddb staff) though a bunch of bots. So yeah.

Yep, the only the thing you can do atm is complain to openspy to get them to fix it.

Nope.

Yep, they ripped the legionnaire model and battle scanner parachute (somehow) and then reanimated it with the legionnaire instead.

Well, I'm guessing that, but the one time I did use it the parachute drop animation looked a bit jank.

Also, I was thinking, there's a lot of textures with unreadable text, like they've been lossy compressed. There's probably higher resolution textures out there just waiting for someone to use them (looking at you, rebellion).

That, and there's likely pre-damaged textures as well - I also noticed a lot of similar looking damage bits on the NSA island base models for example.

Game limitations. Only two factions can be played/used by a player at any one time, unless one of them is replaced with the Terrans.

Have you ever thought of using stuff from the terran modification? For example, the drop-in legionnaire support.

Mods for GC2?
Do you still have them, by chance?

If you do (and have a discord account), you could join the GC discord and share them: Discord.gg

There's an extra bug with this tool - it crashes when placing or moving zones in the bottom half of the map/box. Maybe it could be fixed by hexediting but idk. Though you can avoid this crash by moving the boundaries around to force the zones into the bottom part of the map.

Sometimes the bug doesn't occur and I don't know why - I can't replicate it (but it's how I got the preview image).

Pressing escape also crashes it, and right click and/or holding effects the buttons too.

Hey, what ever happened to that GC2 enhanced mod you were working on? Did you get stuck at editing the missions?

I've put together this download you might find useful:

Lasercar - - 56 comments @ Massive maps .juice source

Np. Didn't know there was so much pent-up demand for the gc2 massive maps/missions being easily editable with a single download.

I mean, technically everything you need is in the lite mod SDK, it just doesn't give you the xmap juice.

Btw, you should join the GC discord: Discord.gg

We have a few developers on it that you can superfan over with your questions.

Hey, I've just uploaded the .juice source for Massive's maps. You can now edit all of them without having to make the xmap juice first.

Woah, unless you have access to the Far Cry 2 and/or Dunia source code, that's basically impossible.

And, probably the reason why the dead mod that inspired this idea of yours is dead in the first place.

If you want to run modded multiplayer you have to unpack the mod - GC2 will always use the unpacked files over the packed ones.

Of course, that'll also mean that your GC2 install will always launch into the mod, so it's better to only to it on a dedicated server or if you know what you're doing.

I think the RPGs add character to this mod. I've had some very memorable buddy rescues when I did a playthrough with it.

Anyway, the NPC issue you have is due to your very high FPS. When it's above 60-80 you'll start to notice the issues. Either enable v-sync or cap your FPS by putting -RenderProfile_MaxFps 80 into your shortcut or launch options on steam.

For those that haven't tried this mod, you'll be hearing these voicelines (and explosions) a lot:

"They have RPGs…keep moving."

"They’ve got RPGs…don’t stay in one place for too long."

"There’s an RPG in play…keep moving."

"RPG guy is looking right at you… you better move your ***."

"Keep moving, dude. The guy with the RPG is looking for you."

*explosion*

Ah, Infamous Fusion. This mod and RealMode started it all (and that every modder afterwards unashamedly and directly copied from both).

Funny that the safe house watch bug is due to a simple, unnoticed change that everyone copied into their mods from this one.

Also funny that Infamous Fusion copied from RealMode - so it's basically come full circle.

Three notes for those new to modding:

Don't put .juice files into your mod sdks. Only the editor can open juices. GC2 can't.

Copy paste the mss32 dll into the data1008 folder - it'll fix the crashing of the GUI editor and give you a graph when you click on the root of a juice file (yeah, that empty white box isn't for show).

The advanced unit types juice is for multiplayer. The other is for singleplayer, but you've already guessed that by now (hopefully).

That depends if there's a modder out there who's able to do it and willing to do it for the FC2 modders. This game is old, and many don't see value in it (but we all still do).
Even if we got the Dunia source, I would not be surprised if it doesn't contain import/export plugins for xbg files.
Also, we'd still need support for creating havok collision meshes too.

Uh, hi.

I'm from the Ground Control Community. Would you still happen to have old custom content or other versions of your GC2 mod stored away somewhere?

If so, please join the Ground Control Community Discord and we can talk more: Discord.gg

I'm trying to archive old custom content for GC2.
