Trash Strings in Map files

DysproS · 12-01-2005, 05:57 PM

map files contain [Houses], [Arabs], [Nod] and so on... My map seems to work perfectly fine even if I remove all of these. What are they for, do I really need them for my Multiplayer map?

probably not, they are mainly used in single player maps

There for FA2

Elaborate please?

i don't see why they are for FA2, simply because FA2 puts them in there...

They tell FA2 number and details of houses. Open any EA single player mission and see how they change.

FA2 starts out with the standard houses to make it easy to use.

The game requires:
[Header]
[Preview]
[PreviewPack]
[Basic]
[IsoMapPack5]
[Map]
[Waypoints]
[Digest] ; I think

The rest is added for map customizing and/or FA2

EDIT: I tested, [Digest] is not needed for the game or FA2
