They seem to put randomly the NPCs into this room.

OK I will check this...

Edit:// Sorry you are right, there are at the same time in the piano room. I will fix this ASAP.

I was able to put a car at the beginning of the 1st level (Cannibal).
What do you think? Is it useful, or should I remove it?

-----------Edit://
I decided to replace the jeep with an motor cycle.
See pic #2
------------
I think this new vehicle is useful, because it's annoying to move the
whole route by feet.

It's good idea. In the reality these soldiers for sure arrived on the motorcycle.

Well I just thought, perhaps the level gets to easy, because the
designers seemed to had somthing in the mind when creating this
level this way.

It doesn't get to easy or does it?

There were only one type of NPC for the prisoners in prison camp in level
"Removal". He appeared 96 times, so I replaced the half of them [48] with
another one.


Features:

• Looks older
• New face
• Other skin color
• Grey hair
• Other prisoner number
• Openened shirt
• Undershirt visible

I think, that your motorcycle makes this level more realistic.

Agree.

Hex editor is only tool. And all hex editors works equally. I don't know a hex editor with magic spells
As for me, I prefer Far Manager(hexed plugin) for simple work and Hex Workshop for more complicated.

Ok how did you do that? How did you place a vehicle on the map? What file did you edit? Tell me the exact filename.

Thanks

Edit1: What hex editor are you using? You are editing the .Shadvs files, right? I tried to edit these files with a hex editor but the game kept on crashing.

for example. I tried fixing the problem with the Zis-5 truck. If you've noticed it doesn't have a destroyed model when it blows up. If you were to try to blow it up you will see an explosion but it will stay in one piece. I tried to give it the destroyed model of Blitz truck in the vehicle.shadvs file but the game crashed.

I added a spawning command to the main script file of the level (demoday.lua).
The command is

"Level.CreateWorldItem( "bike_bmw" , "vehicle" ,-2070.00 , -128.00 , -3500.00 , 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 'id_veh' );"

I have a SHADVS de/compiler.

Which level? Did you made other mods or fixes? Please let me know, so
I can add it to my Enhacement Addon.

Update:// The ZIS is only in training mission. I was not meant to be blown up

I use HexWorksop, but not for modifying SHADVS. You cannot modify
SHADVS files correctly with a hex editor.

Why not? I did it before tool from hykao was received. It's not easy, but it's not impossible
