Any T-72 Editing available?

I was snooping in the Balkans on fire folder, and i was puzzled that i couldnt find any textures for the vehicles, terrain, etc. however, i found references to such files in the datapack.dc file in the data directory. Does anyone know if there is a program to decompile/recompile those types of files? if not, could someone rig up an extractor similar to the one we had for sh2?

the format of the file would be a .cd file. open it with a hex editor, you'll see subfolder references etc.

Cannot answer your question, sorry, don't know anyone who plays it any longer. Just my (usual) advise that it will not hurt you to switch to SBP. If you are a tanker, this one is for you. Still wait to see someone objecting to that as a realistic simulation it is superior to BoF in all regards. T72 not crewable, though, but planned to be turned into a crewable one (or the T80).

For the moment, t-72's what i've got.... so why not mess with it???

surely it wouldnt be too bad if i just touched some of the textures up a bit.... or alot...

sb pro's on the list, but then again, Marines dont make that much, and I've got a REAL porsche to fix..... It's gonna have to wait for now.

I just want a REAL GOOD ww2 tanksim, both fronts, where i can set up shop in my Jagdpanther and lie in wait for a column of shermans or cromwells, and wreak havoc with my single tank, or get on line with a whole army ot Tigers against the Commies.

Alas, most games only focus on like 2 tanks.....I'd settle for 2d interiors so to speak, if it allows easy adding in of new tanks and vehicles....

Mmmmmm, Elefant.....

I recommend then you leave the Marine Corps, change nationality and enter the Australian armed services. Their tankers get their copies for free, paid by the government.

WEll, changing nationality's out... but I COULD change jobs and get my hands on a REAL tank:hmm:
