| I'm not really sure, but I think it is a bit different to including .staticmesh files, atleast what I have expirienced.
I don't need friends, my computer is user-friendly.

| You have to recreate BFH file structure for the BF2 files, just put .tweak, .con and .collisionmesh files in the staticobjects_server, .staticmesh nd textures in staticobjects_client (check out the existing buildings to look up how exactly it's supposed to be) and add the new building to the map by modifing the staticobjects.con file in mods\XXX\Levels\XXX\server.

| okey, i did everything you did Colbert, though i couldn't find the textures any where in the BF2 files, so its maybe because of that problem, that it looks like this: http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/4282/bfhb20100627224837.png

| Nope, it should work even without textures. You screwed up something. Textures are in objects_client.zip/staticobjects/whatever look for "textures" folders.

| Fucked if I know. Probably the file/folder structure is wrong. Or the staticobjects.con.

| It should be in Mi_Hangar_Mec\Meshes\. If it's there already I don't know if you did something wrong or did I forget something. I'll try to figure it out tommorow when I'll be sober and my brain starts to work. Added (2010-06-28, 3:13 PM) --------------------------------------------- OK, I just tried to do it myself and the statics taken straight from BF2 files just won't work. I'm guessing it's the issue with technique on material used, I had to import the mesh to 3ds max and export it. That way it worked. I also tried with BF2 Material Tool but the modded .staticmesh just crashes the game. So yeah, if there's a way to get the statics to work straight from BF2 files I don't know it.

| Plenty... The Pirate Bay, rapidshare... :P Or you can just google for the 30 day trial version. Just make sure it's version 9 or older, newer stuff isn't compatible with the BF2 plugins.
