Battlezone 1

Alright... I want... the HUD from BzE in Bz 1.4

1) Is this possible?

2) If so, how would one go about extracting usable files from the .zfs/obtaining the proper files to do this HUD Overhaul?

I've gotten BzE all downloaded, and I have BzE1.1.zfs, and I've extracted and uncompressed it using UNZFS, but all the files are invalid. Pictures show up as small X's, wave files will not play, and all files viewable on notepad... well, they aren't and they should be... '>>

If someone's already got something I can just stick into the addon folder, awesome. If not, I shall pioneer this... (I'm already modding the hell out of BZ 1.4, so I'm going in for a penny )

If anyone can give me some troubleshooting assistance, I will bow to your whims in DM, and I will be your scavenger in strat.

I may be kidding... O,o'


EDIT: After looking back and now launching the game... even alone... it fails... ._.

BUT! Never fear for me, for I am a vulture... =w= I'm just going to pick out the bits and cannibalize his mod for my own personal amusement. This shall be fun, if only I could manage to get inside and use that damn .zfs file... '>>

DUDE! If you even manage to nick one file from BZE you may become our saviour. You could nick the FPS fix among other things!
Good luck!

Alright then! That will be my project, since multiplayer sessions for me are so few and far between... once I figure out how to crack the damn thing, I'll be sure to let you all know... if anyone has something useful to offer in the meantime, it will be well appreciated.

BZE files are encrypted so you can't read them with Notepad. But there were few reports of someone hacking BZE so I guess reaper's encryption isn't that hard to break...

Yeah... five minutes out and I gave up. XD

We need to find this elusive hacker... '>>

Either that or figure out the encryption...

......

This is where someone comes in and goes "I R MASTR DECODR! CHOSE MEEEEEE! DDDDDDDD"

This is where I come in. I have a mac program that can decrypt ANY file.


Rizzle.

ANY file you say?

THEN YOU SHALL BE OUR SAVIOR! Unless you can't be asked to actually fix/change anything... then I will do that for you. Do you think you can have yourself a look and see what has to be done by you? O,o

Yep. I don't know about converting from reapers retarted game to the real BZ I'll try.

I just have one qustion did u have unzfs extract & uncompress or extract only?
because if you didn't have it uncompress the files that i the reason you can't read them.

and one more thing the unzfs on this web site comes with a readme file please do read it!
and i command prompt type unzfs /? that is very helpful to do before doing anything
with it.
