Ok to start with you should make a folder in your CoD2 folder (not in main) called whatever you want (mine is called GC1).

Now you need to extract the aitype that you want (allied ones too) out of iw_08.iwd into this folder. You should now have a folder in GC1 called aitype and within it the ai you want to change.
eg.
CoD2/GC1/aitype/axis_afrikakorp_reg_thin.gsc
CoD2/GC1/aitype/ally_brit_africa_reg_thompson.gsc

Now you open these files in wordpad (because notepad displays it wierd):

main()
{
	self.team = "axis";
	self.accuracy = 0.2;
	self.health = 100;
	self.weapon = "kar98k";
	self.secondaryweapon = "luger";
	self.grenadeWeapon = "Stielhandgranate";
	self.grenadeAmmo = 0;

	character\german_afrikakorp_thin::main();
}

spawner()
{
	self setspawnerteam("axis");
}

then change the self.team and setspawnerteam to "allies".

main()
{
	self.team = "allies";
	self.accuracy = 0.2;
	self.health = 100;
	self.weapon = "kar98k";
	self.secondaryweapon = "luger";
	self.grenadeWeapon = "Stielhandgranate";
	self.grenadeAmmo = 0;

	character\german_afrikakorp_thin::main();
}

spawner()
{
	self setspawnerteam("allies");
}

and the other way around for all the allied troops. Then download my version of the _names.gsc to the GC1/maps folder because I am too lazy to point out all the little things I changed.

I uploaded it here but it doesn't seem to be showing anything. Maybe someone can help me.

Once you get that then you only need to run your map with the parameters +set fs_game GC1 and you should have friendly Axis and enemy Allied soldiers (provided the soldiers in your map are the ones you put in GC1/aitype).

And it doesn't affect the normal game campaign either. Oh yes and please tell me anything I have left out or that isn't clear, this is the first time I have ever tried writing a tutorial for ANYTHING.

wow! thanks dude

You're welcome though until my file is accepted I don't think you will have any German names.

Ok instead I uploaded it to an alternate location for the time being:
http://hepcat.comteck.org/_names.gsc

Just put it in the GC1/maps folder.

I do it like you say but germans are still agresive...I make it other way like in CODUO...I simple do in script like you say and then rename it "name1" then I in editor in classname give 1 behind name and it is work...but I must give my own classnames to aitype in iwd_o8

alright what the hell are you talking about i dont get a flick of it

it works just fine, but i can't get rid of those allied names (enemies). Now i can see the axis names AND the allied ones, anyway of getting rid of those?

Everyone who understand cod2 scripts already know this... And you took this post and copied from other site.. don't take credit for something you didn't made or came up with this here is already made long time ago the German front mod and also the WW2 mod that is still in progress

If you would have written your own post of same idea it would have been better unlike now when you copied the whole entire post...

You do realize you are about 5 years too late to call him out. This post was made in 2006, and your posting in 2011.
