kohlenklau Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Help! I am working on a North Africa mod for CMFI and desire to somehow import a flat roofed building for that Arabic village Sahara desert look!I have the demo's for CMSF and CMBS and am trying unsuccessfully so far to get a flat roofer to show up in CMFI.In CMBS, which buildings are the flat roofers? Do these buildings ONLY have flat roofs or do they click through flat and regular peaked roof?Which buildings are they? I think they are just modular but please confirm, modular or independent? Or both? If independent, which ones?Thanks for any help someone can lend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieme(ITA) Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Only the modulars have a flat roof, and it's one of the available options. If I remember correctly I tried to import to CMRT the CMSF modular buildings with flat roofs but I didn't manage to do it. There must be some code needed to get the option showing/functioning during editing in the editor.

kohlenklau Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 The hard code in CMSF and CMBS does something special and so CMFI hard code does NOT do the special thing and so flat roofs do not show in CMFI even with the same mdr's. Dang.Oh well. Thanks. I will ask BFC to give us some CMFI flat roofs in a so called "desert pack".... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieme(ITA) Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 In my opinion, since they got them already, there is no real reason to avoid the release of flat roofs for all WW2 titles... the flat roofed buildings are much more common in modern days than they were in the '40s but nonetheless there were several structures (mainly industrials) using them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 SUCCESS! Flat roofs in CMFI. Screenshots later. Gotta go to work. Big project due monday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Steppenwulf Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 My hunch is hex editing in the MDR file?! There's much that can be achieved with a little ingenuity and some tenacity. Well done regardless - can't wait to see some screenshots!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 I didn't have to do that in this case. Just renamed a file. I tried a few tricks that failed but finally saw the key to the puzzle and did that rename. And voila! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Steppenwulf Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Superb! I've always found it's the unique little breakthroughs like this that give the greatest pleasures in modding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
