Topic: Single Player mini-mod WIP

The First Strike Extended mod supprts First Strike 1.5, contains support for  sp/coop with the BF2142 maps and has custom maps.

http://www.battlefieldsingleplayer.com/ … SXv1_1.exe


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The FS_SP Single player mod only works with First Strike Ver 1.4!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you want to play the First Strike single player mod, you will need to reinstall ver 1.4

- First make a backup of the current First Strike mod.  You can rename it to First Strike 15.

- Then install the 1.4 First Strike mod:
http://battlefield2.filefront.com/file/ … Full;99371

The single player mod needs to be installed into it's own folder:

\battlefield 2142\mods\FS_SP

Now, if you want to play online, you just rename the First Strike folder to First Strike 14, and change the First Strike 15 folder to First Strike.   

Why play the single player mod when First Strike has AI built in? 

Answer: The single player mod has more single player supported First Strike maps, BF2142 conversion maps and several custom maps available.

Latest version of FS_SP:
http://files.filefront.com/FS+SP+26JUN0 … einfo.html

(Use the free 7Zip tool to extract into the game's mod folder)

Backup your levels folder since many of the maps are now a seperate download.  Only the supported First Strike maps are included with the mod download now.  14 First Strike maps now have bot support.

install into the game's mod folder.  Which will probably be here:

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142

or here

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142 Deluxe Edition\mods

it will create an FS_SP folder under the \mods folder like this:  \mods\FS_SP

Maps go in the \mods\FS_SP\levels folder

Conversions for the BF2142 maps are also included with improved SP support in a seperate download.

The Northern Strike booster pack maps are supported in a seperate download.

Changes for verison 1.4:
========================
- Added Ai support for all the vehicles, with autogunners whenever possible.
- Bandomeer Refinery and Battle of Ryloth are dogfighting map for bots.  Players can spawn at CPs as in conquest but flags can not be capped.
- Improved AI for Battle of Ryloth - bots will go to all objectives.
- Added AI support for Tattoine Bestine and Rhen Var Ice plains, thanks to Frank Beans.
- Added larger combat area bot support for Endor Strike Team and Tatooine Mosespa thanks to Frank Beans.

If you have BF2142 Deluxe edition or the NS booster pack this is a seperate conversion patch for the NS maps:  http://files.filefront.com/FS+SP+1+2+NS … einfo.html


Old version Changes:
======
All First Strike maps have some level of coop/sp support.
- 16, 32, 64 coop/sp support for NS maps.
- Huge ticket count fixed.
- Uniforms match the environments now.
- Automated white Hoth turrets used to replace the AA and AV guns on maps. The turrets serve as automated defense for the CPs.

Tips:

- White Turrets have a blindspot behind them and will slowly scan 360 degrees. To help protect the base keep them pointed towards the enemy advance.

- Bots and automated weapons can't track, so stay moving at an angle.

- The heavy support kit has a deployable automated sentry gun. These can be very useful to help support a difficult advance.

- Take advantage of a bots stubborness to attack a vehicle with autocontrolled turrets (ATST, hovertank) even after its abandoned by jumping out quickly to kill the bot and then jump back in.


Oustanding issues/to do list
==================
- Bots on Capital ships don't fire weapons.
- Officer kit removed, since only 4 kits work in sp.

====================================================
I have set up a dedicted section at the Battlefield Single Player website for First Strike SP support.   Check it out for the latest updates to First Strike Single player as well as links to single player conversion maps.

Re: Single Player mini-mod WIP

What I can use is feedback on is how the bots play.  I am trying to give it a Star Wars feel to the single player gameplay.   I set it up so the bots will shoot with the rifles further away then BF2142 bots and will switch to pistols at close range and then attack with a baton or knife at hand to hand range.

Re: Single Player mini-mod WIP

SP support for Encounter at Mos Ethna

Just extract the map files in the FS_SP mini-mod's levels folder
