The
first most important thing you need to know is that you wont be able to
play your mods in multiplayer, the game simply wont let you connect to
multiplayer with any kind of mod. The game will return a (6) Invalid
data error when a modded client attempts to connect to multiplayer.
So the only thing you can do is play alone in the tutorial mod. This brings us to our first little mod.
Playing any map in tutorial.
Before we start I must remind you to always make backups of the folder you are modding. Or even better, back up your entire game, its not too large in filesize.
Now we must locate your maps folder, simply go to BFHeroes\mods\bfheroes\Levels1
Now
you should see various battlefield heroes maps, they have different
names then the ones your used to simply because the developers named
them that when making the maps.

Heat - Riverside Rush
lake - Buccaner Bay
Mayhem - Sunset Showdown
seaside_skirmish - Seaside Skirmish
(obviously)

pro_modder
Now the first thing you should do is rename seaside_skirmish to seaside_skirmish22
Now to acutally start modding the map. Open the map you want to mod, and locate the Info folder ounce you found it open the .desc file with notepad. Now paste this in the .desc file.
<mode
type="gpm_tut">
<maptype
players="16" type="headon"
locid="GAMEMODE_DESCRIPTION_headon">Unlocalized test for this mode
on this map</maptype>
</mode> |
pro_modder Now the file should look like this.
<map>
<name> Coastal_Clash </name>
<briefing
locid="LOADINGSCREEN_MAPDESCRIPTION_Smack2">map description for
modders maps not localized (english only)</briefing>
<music> sound/music/menuquiet.ogg </music>
<modes>
<mode type="gpm_tdm">
<maptype
players="16" type="headon"
locid="GAMEMODE_DESCRIPTION_headon">Unlocalized test for this mode
on this map</maptype>
</mode>
<mode type="gpm_tut">
<maptype
players="16" type="headon"
locid="GAMEMODE_DESCRIPTION_headon">Unlocalized test for this mode
on this map</maptype>
</mode>
</modes>
</map> |

Remember the first two lines change depending of the map. Now you can close and save the file. Now open the server.zip folder. Now you should see a folder called "GameModes" open it. Make a copy of the folder "gpm_tdm" and paste it for example on the desktop, Now rename the folder to "gpm_tut" now drag the folder back in the "GameModes" folder. Now the folder should contein two files gpm_tut and gpm_tdm.
Now open bfheroes\mods\bfheroes\settings and open "maplist.con" file with notepad. It should look like this
maplist.append
"Village" "gpm_tdm" 16 Change it to.
maplist.append "Your map's folder name" "gpm_tut" 16
Now save and close the file.Now you can play your tutorial map in battlefield heroes.
1.Note that most of the moddable game files are located in the mods\bfheroes directory.
2.seaside_skirmish
the the defult tutorial map, when the game tries to start the tutorial
it will automaticly look for seaide_skirminsh but if you will rename it
the game wont be able to find it therefor it will use the map thats in
the file maplist.con.
