Hawx [Modding] Adding Planes to the Hangar

bBurn · April 11, 2009

*Note, adding another plane into HAWX will probably screw up your Profile, so do a backup or if like me you don't really care about the XP/Ranking just carry on (challenges aren't affected)

Required

======

http://www.mediafire.com/?jnyg5mnomuj

http://www.mediafire.com/?4nymjjjgzmy

7-Zip or some other Zip tool

rF4hfGe1PfrzGe3IbaRtWsIn (password for pak files)

Microsoft .Net 3.5 for the toolkit

I will use Impala_88 EDI Mod as the basis for the guide. http://files.filefront.com/EDI+UCAV+hawx+M...;/fileinfo.html

The latest Mod already includes the plane, this is how I got it in the game

?Why is it called dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player

to save time when hex editing

open up plane2skins.lua and add the following lines in (add them into the function)

isPlaneWithTwoSkinsName()

		..

		if id == "dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player" then

			return true

		end

		..

	end

function isNewModdedPlane ( plane )

		..

		if plane == "dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player" then

			return true

		end

		..

	end

function getNewModdedPlaneCaption ( plane )

		..

		if plane == "dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player" then

			return "EDI Stealth"

		end

		..

	end

function isExtraPlayablePlane( plane )

		..

		if plane == "dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player" then

			return true

		end

		if plane == "dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_skin2_player" then

			return true

		end

		..

	end

getNewModdedPlaneCaption, this sets the name to display for the plane in the hangar This makes the EDI Stealth unlocked, displays EDI Stealth in the hangar and allows the plane to use 2 skins open up default_planes.lua add the following to the end of the file

{

		   Name = "EDI",

		   Pack = "MainMenu",

		   Model = "dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player",

		   Dat = "Data/Models/plane_playable/menu_Eurofighter-200Z_Typhoon.dat",

		   Skin2 = 1,

		   Skin2Model="dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_skin2_player",

		   Skin2Dat="Data/models/plane_playable/menu_skin2_Eurofighter-200Z_Typhoon.dat",

		   Country = 2,

		   Level = 0,

		   Speed = 5,

		   Maneuverability = 9,

		   Resistance = 6,

		   AARating = 9,

		   AGRating = 7,

		   Role = 3,


		   Stealth = 0,

		   Carrier = 0,

		   EW = 0,

		   SuperCannon = 0,

		   Drift = 1,

		   StallRecovery = 1,

		   Stability = 1,

		   Avionics = 3,

		   WeaponCharge = 1,

		   SPPacks = {

			 {"wpm_BM-MM-FL",140,40,0,5},

			 {"wpm_BM-MM-FFB-FL",140,20,60,5},

			 {"wpm_BM-AM-RL-FL",140,50,140,5},

			 },

		   MPPacks = {

			 {"wpm_BM-MM-FL_mp",40,20,0,3},

			 {"wpm_BM-MM-FFB-FL_mp",40,16,20,3},

			 {"wpm_BM-AM-RL-FL_mp",40,10,60,3},

			 },

		   Pic = {"Data\\Textures\\Menus2\\PlaneIcons.dds",0.7,0.5,0.8,0.625}

	},

I've seen a B2 skin and model inside the game's directory but it's a non-player model. I wonder if it would be possible to add it as playable model to the hangar basically convert it and use hardpoints of another model.

modder over at the Ubisoft forum is finishing the B-52 now

Vth_F_Smith · April 13, 2009

Nice. Hopefully the AWACS and the B2 are the next ones.

The B2 shouldn't be that difficult, as he could basically use all the data from the A-12 and the AWACS could use the same file as the B-52 (only without bombs and rockets of course).

hmmm.... a dogfighting awacs.

Mig-29 · April 15, 2009

BBurn, how do we find what number goes after the entry in the unknown3.txt?

depending on the length of the entry there needs to be number after after it, how do we find it?

bBurn · April 15, 2009

dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player.bin,814

dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_skin2_player.bin,826

dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_player_Expert.bin,834

dem_EurofighteZ_Typhoon_skin2_player_Expert.bin,846

as I am not exactly sure what the values relate to , I incremented them by 12 for the 2nd skins, as looking at all the other 2nd skin entries they are all +12

so for example, dem_Eurofighter_Typhoon_player.bin,814 is the value for the original EuroFighter mod, I copied that value for the EDI Model and for the 2nd Skin added 12 to the value

dem_Eurofighter_Typhoon_player.bin,814

dem_Eurofighter_Typhoon_skin2_player.bin,826

dem_Eurofighter_Typhoon_player_Expert.bin,834

dem_Eurofighter_Typhoon_skin2_player_Expert.bin,846

Mig-29 · April 18, 2009

So how can you change the display name?

bBurn · April 18, 2009

look @ function getNewModdedPlaneCaption() in plane2skins.lua
