Small point: May I suggest you modify your requirement to version 1.30?

1. I don't think the addon folder was introduced until 1.10 or 1.20.

2. The addons you mention came with 1.30. For all we know, they may also use settings that are only correctly supported from 1.30 and above.

[LauryThorn 0]

Yes, I can fix that.

And thanks for the info, my knowledge on those

addon things is pretty weak..

I can't play your mission   .

There is an error message at the end of intro when game should start :

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">Can not load mission, missing addon KEGSOfficerGNight, KEGSSoldierGLAW, KEGSSoldierGG, KEGSSoldierGMG, KEGSSoldierGB, AshT55East<span id='postcolor'>

I'm using no unofficial addon.

[LauryThorn 0]

Oh f*ck!

I have to check that out..

I'm really sorry, everyone..

But I'll have fixed version tomorrow..

(Still I don't understand how those units can be there..)

Brr... winter addons.... got the chills!

Is this right? Kegety's Winter Kolgujev and Ash's winter vehicles are required? Or is this just an editing slip-up that needs to be rectified?

I checked the sources, and here are the results:

Those addons are not used in the game, but somehow

they haunt in the addon part of the mission.sqm.

Should I delete those lines manually or what?

Anyway, since I don't have OFP at work, I can't

provide fixed version today.. But I'll have it tomorrow..

(Or if someone is bored, he can D/L the sources and fix this.. )

[theavonlady 2]

Get rid of them in the SQM.

[LauryThorn 0]

Corrected source version is there now..

[theavonlady 2]

And the PBO version?

[LauryThorn 0]

Well, you just have to wait..

(Since I'm at work, I can't provide PBO..)

Tomorrow, early in the morning you'll have it.

Why? You can simply download StuffPBO from The FAQ and impress your coworkers.

[LauryThorn 0]

THanks, Avon Lady! You are the best!

(I didn't know that such thing as StuffPBO exists..)

So here it is now..

Operation Revenge

If someone tests this, please tell me whether it works..

Cause I don't trust that Stuff thing..

[theavonlady 2]

Won't have a chance to test it now but the README still refers to V1.0.

oops.. fixed!

Mission is working fine now. I played it once now and there are some suggestions :

-I got bad formated text in briefing

-When resistance attack is starting there is hint "startassault.sqs" (or something like that). Probably you forget to remove it when you were testing your mission.

-There is radio message 5-Alpha team ready, There is no mention about it in briefing and the message can be called repeatly.

-about extraction :

When I board heli it crashed into near tree (poplar). Maybe rising fly altitude can help.

When I call chopter it will sit on ground and waiting like duck. I think better way is to let chopter flying around extraction site until player is near.

If I find something else I will let you know   .

[LauryThorn 0]

Thanks again!

I will try to put a fixed version tomorrow..

[LordZach 0]

yeah, it will keep the addon requirement in there even if it's not in the mission if you had them in there at an initial time and took them out. just open in notepad and remove the lines.

Thanks for everyone, special thanks to Bart.Jan.
