Hi CoopWarrior.
I managed to do a test map in NILE, where I have guys exiting the helicopter and they are then set to the rope animation.
I set the fall damage height to very little so they don’t die when they land on the ground.
As for the ropes, I used an object that looks like a rope and unhide it when the helo is hovering at the location.

Thanks, I’ve added it to the list
Hi Andrey
Thanks for sharing your findings.
They don’t pass because of the floodlight:
AW2-Operation Red October
AW2-OPERATION HOMECOMING
AW2 Science Friction
I think we can fix this easily when it comes to the first ones.
Have an error in the script:
AW2 – The Cartel
AW2 OPERATION PAIN
AW2-MUTANTVILLE
AW2 – REUNITING FRIENDS-PART 3
AW2 – A FRIEND’S REUNION – PART 4
Can you elaborate on the error, does this have to do with the floodlights or is it some other error?
Very difficult and not passable because of this:
AW2-A NEST OF SNIPERS
AW2-BREAKTHRU
AW2-RING-O-FIRE
AW2-Into THE UNKNOWN
Do you have to destroy the floodlights in these maps?
Crashes on startup:
AW2-NIGHT AT THE AIRFIELD
Ow-Go-cart-Go-by-MIA
AW-Go-Cart-Go-3
OH, AMEN.
Attack on the Plain
Red Dawn
Forest Fight
Twin Islands
AW2 Tank Commander
Zone 51 Dreamland
terrains_done
AW2 – EXPENDABLES 2
For the ones that are here on awmod.com i’m going to contact the map authors to see if they can fix it.
Hi Skunk
That sounds awesome that you started mapping again. Looking forward to your new maps.
How about this one?
Hi Rellik
That’s awesome that you want to start getting into COOP mapmaking, it’s fun.
Ah yes I see. Really a shame that they closed the site down.
Anyway since you are new to COOP maps, Id recommend to start by using NILE and its build-in scripting.
It’s enough to make BG’s go to vehicles, make them go to a waypoint or make the vehicle go on a waypoint route.
To make Team 1, the players win, after they have destroyed something or many things.
You can then simply open up the wac file to see the code being generated.
Granted it’s not the most optimized code but it works.
You can then learn how it looks like so you know next time what to write by hand.
I also found an alternative site for you for the Brad G tutorial
Here is a direct link:

I hope this helps

[quote quote=3298]On some maps, you must destroy the searchlights to complete the mission. But how to do it? I’ve tried all kinds of weapons. I tried to undermine it. The floodlights don’t break anyway. But surely the developers know how to destroy them? Or they are completely indestructible. However, the elimination of the spotlight is included in the scenario of many maps! [/quote]
Hi Andrey
Thanks for your question.
The search lights went from destroyable to non-destroyable when we were developing AW2 and coming out with new versions.
We made it into an “object” instead of a decoration. It can now be found in the object list.
The reason why it was updated into an object was because there was a new improved version of it, where the mapper would be able to set it to different colors other than just white lights.
So by default, if you set it to team 0, the light is white. If you set the search light to team 1, it is blue and if set to team 2 it is red.
Therefore if the map is made from an older version of AW2, then that could be the reason why it is casing an issue.
In order for to make them destroyable, a mapper needs to add a “hidden” destroyable object around the search light so the players can destroy that instead when they shoot at it. When the “hidden” object is destroyed, the mapper should remove the search light in a wac command.
Thanks TheWad. Happy that you found it. I’ll put it in the Maps download section so it’s easy to find.
[quote quote=3250]hi all i looking for this map . AW2-NUKE-FEST [/quote]
I’ll try and keep an eye out.
[quote quote=3252]I want to collect a complete collection of cards from Rickman. I have some of it, but not all of it. All of these cards have a splash screen with the caption “by Rickman”. Also, these cards are named after the numbers “Mission 1” and so on. I don’t know how many of them there are, but probably at least 16 pieces. These cards are old and probably someone has them.

Hi Andrey
Here are what we have for download for Rickmans maps at the moment.

There are also some of them already included in AW2 as stockmaps if I remember correctly.
[quote quote=3162]Hi all,
Wow, I never knew AW was still alive and kicking, this is awesome!
I used to play JO back years ago and it was such a fun game. I’ve just started getting a few of my mates back into it, so much fun! Also found SoftEther VPN with bridge mode allows classic LAN play which is great!
Thanks to the team keeping this mod alive 
Cheers,
Ben
[/quote]
Welcome Ben,
Thanks for introducing yourself and great to hear you are having a great time with it!
Good to know about the tip on SoftEther VPN with bridge mode, so there is a way to play LAN in COOP mode 🙂
[quote quote=3161]hi all .how do I disable a drivable vehicle for blue team.i dont remember
[/quote]
I believe it is a wac command called
“disablessn(xxx)”
Where xxx is the id of the vehicle
[quote quote=3164]Hey Captain! Apologies for the stupid question, but where is the awmod folder? I’ve looked under both my JO and AW2 folders and neither have this subfolder. Any help would be much appreciated! Cheers, Ben [/quote]
Hi Ben,
No worries. It’s not a folder called “awmod folder”, it’s just your game directory where Advanced Warfare 2 is installed.
One way to easily find it, is to go hit (Windows key + S). This will open Window search.
Now type “AW2 folder” and hit enter.
This will take you directly to the AW2 folder.
There you place any extracted map files.
Next time you start the game, it will show in the COOP map list.
[quote quote=3163]I’m using SoftEther and it works mint [/quote]
Thank you. Good to know 🙂
[quote quote=3158]Captain, I found the problem. It was my antivirus program not liking AW2 Mod accessing the “jointops.exe” file and so it put AW2 in quarantine. I am now able to access AW2 and play. Thank you for your help. This mod is definitely a whole new experience. [/quote]
Hi Rellik
Thank you for the kind words and i’m very happy to hear that you found the cause of the problem.
Have a great time.
All the best
Captain
[quote quote=3156]Hi Captain. Thanks for the info. That is pretty much straight forward as what we have already been doing JOTR. Since I made that post I have noticed that I may not have installed the AW2 Mod and Update correctly. Things I did:
When I launch AW2 from the shortcut the window opens, but when I click on link button to run AW2 on the bottom left of the screen, it doesn’t like the “jointops.exe” file. The launch window will open but I don’t seem to be able to activate AW2 from there. It recommended to launch it manually, but that didn’t work either. I get the same error. I am running Windows 7 if that means anything. Any idea where I may have goofed from the above info? I uninstalled AW2 Mod, but I still have the downloaded install files to try it again. [/quote]
Hi Rellik
The above steps exactly right. That normally works fine.
Does your JOTR work like it should and starts up fine?
Try to go into the AW2 folder and start update.exe. That should startup the AW2 launcher, got to “Game settings” and choose “AW2 MED mod” and choose the exe version 17.1.9. Click “Save settings”.
Finally click “Start AW2”.
If that does not work, then maybe there are some things that are not installed right. Maybe a folder permission issue that is causing an installation issue with some files.
Try to uninstall and reinstall AW2 into another place that is not under “c:\program files\…” but somewhere outside into another folder on a drive D.
Hi Rellik
LAN should work fine.
Go into LAN > Host Game and pick a COOP map.
Click “Start hosting”
With your other computer – go to LAN > Join Game and find it there.
Make sure that both your computers are on the same local network.
If you cant find the server, try to switch off your firewall and antivirus prgoram in windows on both computers and repeeat the procedure.
That should do it 🙂
[quote quote=3148]I grew playing delta force 2 and delta force land warrior in lan co-op parties. Great fun and nostalgia. The “multiplayer lag” from those old games is starting to become…old. Delta force Black Hawk Down was fun, but didn’t have co-op. I wasn’t impressed by the co-op offered by joint ops or the df xtremes. Imao, they lacked the same quality, style, immersion, class, voice-overs (which are usually removed from co-op maps), variety and types of weapons (stealth, underwater, etc), and last but not least a triumphant “victory sound” when the co-op mission was won. I hoped for a mod that could add in the quality, class, and variety of df2 & dflw, and I came across Advanced Warfare 2! So far I am extremely excited! It adds all the original feel with the addition of new weapons, some pesky rats, and tons of fantastic maps and the benefit of driveable vehicles. Does aw2 have “scuba gear”? I have yet to try more than 1 map; I look forward to finding all the resources necessary for creating custom terrain for maps and try to make some based off df2 & dflw missions! [/quote]
Hi Noddy
Welcome to AW2. Happy to have you here and thanks for the compliments. 🙂
That would be awesome to have some maps based on the DF2 and DFLW missions.
Unfortunately it does not come with scuba gear. For the scuba gear, you will have to be creative in the map making.
We have a submarine in it thought and quite a lot of drivable water vehicles.
If you want to try more maps to play, start with this one https://awmod.com/aw2-the-incursion/. It’s pretty good.
If you need more help with the map making, let us know.
[quote quote=3127]No error code it plays fine on the server side and when my son tries to join or any one else it gives them the enumerating session. I changed to the host set up in the game and even got rid of the router and when straight off my broad band modem and the connection isn’t the problem I can host up to 35 slots with no problem more but might have lag with some maps. I host in BHD all the time I know a different game but this game originated from that game so thought most things would be about the same. And no problems when I do so I am stumped will get my server back in a week or so when I do ill try again and see will do it with the router and see if I can make it work that way. [/quote]
Alright. Try to disable everything, antivirus, firewall on both sides and see if you can connect 🙂

[quote quote=3116]HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE I have a question and hope someone here can help me out. I have tried to host maps on my server I used the hosting platform and I have a Three tier business connection to run it on amost a T1 just not the bandwidth of that. But can host for 35 players with no lag so my question is? When I host no one can join the server I have gone over the hosting in the game and have every thing in place to host but no one can join it gives them a nummerating service and shuts them out. Any ideas on what causes this? Any help much appricated. Walker [/quote]
Hi Shogun
Do you get an error code when it comes up with “enumerating session” on the client side?
[quote quote=3120]Does anyone here have the game change your weapon at random during game play. Has gotten me killed like a million time. LOL. But is there a fix for this? [/quote]
Hi Shogun
I think it depends on the host settings. If you join somebody else’s server, they can decide.
If you want to decide you can host yourself.
Also if you play a single player map, the map creator can also set what loadout it should be (MED only)
[quote quote=3046]i see a problem. when i have my maps ready. on my 64bit pc and i host them on my 32bit then. my maps mixup houses are half in the ground. or the radios are underground .are there more map makers that have the same problem. and a solution [/quote]

Hi Zeke
I’m a little unsure of what you mean. Can you make a video screen recording and upload somewhere so I can see better what you mean?
If you want to align objects next to each other, use the grid setup in 2D mode.
Set the Grid spacing to 0.25 in Y and X.
Now click on the icon “Grid Snap to”. Now objects you move snap to the grid you have made.
