How does one load a custom map? I put it in a Custom folder and it appears in the Custom Level list in game, but nothing happens when I press Enter other than a short Please Wait.
It's hard to imagine anybody successfully modding for Blood 2. This thing is trickier than a woman's feelings. It's completely unlike how you do it for Quake, and not in a good way.

Blood2 reads .dat files for maps. .ed files have to be compiled first.

Right now I'm too busy drooling over b2revelations. Try renaming your dat file with the BB_ prefix and see if it loads as a multiplayer map.

Have you looked at the B2K5 mod? I think ILA renamed the maps after their sp counterparts, kinda like it was done in the old school Doom days, so something like: SUBWAY_A or whatever they're called in b2, placed in a rez with the correct directory structure, etc.
I am sorry windebeast, wherever you are. Hope this fixes it.

Is there a way to remove the damn face huggers from the game? There have been too many soiled pants and spilled drinks.

Why not tone them down, give them just 1 hit point, have them release with a single space bar press, etc.?
