I've messed with this for several hours only to determine this:

SV_PURE is a toggle. In order for it to be a toggle, any files (.PK3's) that work with it must have 2 switches: SV_PURE on, and SV_PURE off.

Somewhere other than localization.txt, there is a file that is telling SPEARHEAD.EXE, and it might even be IN the .EXE, to default the localization.txt file. If you delete localization.txt from MOH\mainta\pak0.PK3, it STILL LOADS. If you delete both that one AND the MOH:AA one, IT STILL LOADS!

So somewhere in some hidden file is another backup copy that it's loading from. My goal is to find that, get the localization.txt info from it, find out the SV_PURE switch, and add it to my Spearhead Chat Filter.

PS: If it's SV_PURE capable, the localization.txt file, this means one thing: The chat filter is going to have to be client-side like skins. (NOT cool.) Hopefully, I'll be able to get it to load in a .PK3 once I get everything working.

So far, I've gotten no support from EA about this issue, including Chris Sheldon, our EA rep @ mohadmin.com who's been talking to us on Spearhead.
