Yep, you can create new ConfLogic files, although I doubt you'll hear "male_rus_ded_conf.shadvs" being used in DtS missions due to the peasants' scripted routines... Creating a "female_rus_conf.shadvs" file, however, is going to be much more difficult. Haggard Games didn't bother giving babushkas much dialogue, instead using a few slowed recordings of German female grunts, sighs, coughs and screams.

How do I edit SMF files? For example, how did you add "embassycivilian_body04.dds" and "embassycivilian_head03.dds" to "agent02.SMF"?

Also, anything new on Jagdpanther?

I can edit only part of SMF. Bytes from 'SDVS' id to the end of file have SHADVS structure and can be edited by shadvs2txt/txt2shadvs tools.

A little bit. I'll post some new screenshots in a few days.

Can you give me detailed steps on how to edit the shadvs part of the SMF? Attempting to convert the SMF to text with those programs doesn't work. I want to add "embassycivilian_body07.dds" and "mechanic_head2.dds" to "agent02.SMF".

mechanic_head2.dds is for another SMF. Perhaps you'll get something like this:

1. Open any SMF
2. Find 'SDVS' bytes
3. Select bytes from 'SDVS' to the end of file
4. Save selected bytes as test.shadvs

Yes, you should convert only part of SMF, not the whole file.

What Hex editor do you use for selecting bytes? I use XVI32, and I can't seem to select multiple bytes at once...

By the way, mechanic_head2.dds is used for two NPCs in Dora. Ever wondered why there's a seventh EmbassyMan body texture, but no seventh head texture?

I want to congratulate everybody on the Day of Great Victory!

Some new screenshots from MoTmod 1.10 "Jagdpanther":
Ditrich Meltzer can speak now!

Liz Shaw, see your PM.

P. S. Small hotfix for the mission#06 is added to the first post.

Analysis: NPCs now salute Meltzer, Meltzer now speaks to his chauffeur, and the watchtowers are a restricted area now...

Does Meltzer's interactions come with voice clips eg. "script_41_01_mih.wav"?

Yes.

Also, I noticed the guard on the tower has a sniper rifle. I've been attempting to give the tower guards in Lightning scoped Kar 98k rifles, but the machine gun weapon slot seems to be immune to the commands I type on the LUA file. How did you do it?
