Login Screen

Whenever you play Battlezone II you must login with a new pilot name or select a previously entered pilot’s name. The progress for each pilot in the single player campaign and preferences are stored separately for each pilot. So if you wish to restart the game from scratch, or keep two separate sets of preferences, you may want to login as a new pilot.

You can delete old pilot logins from the pilot login screen

Clicking on this button after you select a pilot name will bring you to the following screen.

The Editor lets you create custom maps.

Loading Maps Into The Editor

Maps can be loaded into the editor two different ways.

The first way to load a map is to open the bz2edit.exe located in your Battlezone II directory & click the load map button after accepting the license agreement.

The second way is to create a shortcut of the bz2edit.exe & edit the target locate to include the bzn file name of the map you wish to open.

Example: "C:\Program Files\Battlezone II\bz2edit.exe" dunesi.bzn

Input Configuration

This screen allows you to remap controls on your keyboard, mouse, or joystick. Battlezone II contains a few default control configurations which you may want to select as a starting point for customizing the controls.

You can remap a control by pressing the Clear button next to the control you want to change. Press the Bind button and then simply press the key or button that you want to bind to that control. You should avoid mapping two controls to the same key or button.
