Custom map Vulcan Island in co-op

https://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c400/FFOLKES1/coop1Small.jpg

How I did it:
1. Uninstalled BF2 and restarted computer
2. Installed BF2 and applied the full patch (some users who apply the incremental patch don't have co-op option)
3. Made a new mod folder called Unlocks and copied the contents of the BF2 mod into it
4. Created shortcut to my new mod Unlocks
5. Copied the Vulcan_Island map folder to ...mods\Unlocks\Levels
6. Created gpm_coop folder under GameModes folder in the server.zip file
7. Copied the 16 folder from the GameModes\sp1 into new gpm_coop folder
8. Renamed the 16 folder in the gpm_coop folder to 64
9. Made a copy of the gpm_cq_64_menuMap.png in the Info folder and renamed it to gpm_coop_64_menuMap.png
10. Edited the vulcan_island.desc where I added the gpm_coop mode section. See below:

Yes.  Almost any map can be converted to co-op mode.  Check out the single player forum for details...

Thank you very much for this. You might want to add that you have to re-zip the files into the server.zip when your done editing.

Not to worry.  I will be posting a revised Vulcan Island map later this week that has full 16, 32, and 64 Single-Player and Co-op support. 

I only posted this because some experienced users were having trouble with getting their custom maps to work in co-op.
