Anyone know of a proper .ff file extractor?  I'm trying to get the .map file for Der Riese, but the Toms FF file extractor wont extract the .map file.
And I wanted to know if I could extract the weapon files from a ugx mod so I can have the original ugx weapons like the r700.  Any help would be appreciated.

It's not possible to get the .map file of a map.

Well, how does the maps one plays have all of the information on how a level looks?
And how did someone make a remake of Nacht if one can't get the map files?

They look at the map as reference and remake it in radiant lol.

But when I played a version of Der Riese that had upgraded graphics, the same glitch happened on both.  Wouldnt using a second map as reference actually leave room for certain areas or items to not be fully scaled to the original anyway?  For example, you know the mod that adds perk machines to Nacht and modern weapons?  If you load the mod, you go to the menu like you do without mods, and you start the map that way, there's no way they used the original map as reference because the mod doesn't even use a seperate map, only the stock one.  Maybe I was a little confused.
Is there any site online that has a .map made for the base maps?

Remakes are made entirely from scratch. It's not possible to get a .map file from a compiled level, but you can create a mod and add on to pre-existing maps. Personally don't know how, but I'm sure you would be able to find something if you look around.

I already added weapons to Nacht, Verruckt, and halfway on Der Riese.  I did it all on my own, but I cant get weapons to show in the box on Riese.  I maybe have too many weapons, I started to test the theory but I'm not sure if it is that.  Any ideas?

P.S.     I also sent you a pm too.

It's possible to extract the maps and import it into Radiant as a model, most people that do that, do it via Ninjaripper, etc. then map over that, however generating .map files from the .d3dbsp (the compiled map) is close to impossible, optimizations, etc. done to the map during the compile removes a lot of data, think of a compiled map as a giant model.

The most people have done public atm is entity data from the BSP files.

the .map file for der riese is available on bo3 mod tools but you need to edit a lot of stuff using a text editor since bo3's map format contains some new syntax.

Oh, I can do with that one.  What is the link?

you've gotta have bought bo3 from steam and have the mod tools installed. you can't have it otherwise.

What the fuck.

What a nice response! You sir, just made me want to send you the link to the map file you need. I'll send it to you as soon as my shift at work is over. Thanks for being so kind to me!

Well, sorry.  Not that many people will actually help.  Everyone else, they breed false hope by never replying back.  But, oh well.  Just add to that tally, would ya?

I just didnt want to buy BO3, waste time downloading it onto a computer that cant even run it, just for a .map file.  And I was wondering, I searched for the .map file online and it didn't exist, how could someone else can have a link to it?

you should be nicer to people trying to help you...
