Patrol Operations 2

[hazey 9]

Hey love the map, I seem to be having some issues though. I turn on ambient civilians but I don't see them anywhere. Always same with insurgents, I have yet to run into one. Maybe I am doing something wrong? Loading server with all of ACE without ACE_SM. and @lingor.

[roy86 367]

Thanks and thanks. It's gonna be amazing.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and AI doesn't follow me either when I'm relocating to/from an MHQ. They should do that as well.

Done :)

Testing almost complete. Heres a preview of the Halo AI

Amazing, can't wait to try this out.

Any chance we could also get a Zargabad version?

EDIT: I usually play with a couple of friends and we like to have to do less travel and more action. Zargabad would be perfect for us.

There is a problem with Takistan patrol Ops for me, all I have changed is added in some different choppers, but no matter what I do when someone gets shot they sink through the ground. You can still revive them, but if you can find their body and if you find their body and revive them they wake up in the middle of the floor and cannot get out of it. I edit the Params. I have tried all different things in there but still nothing...same problem.

I can put one together again for the release.

Hi Whyte,

Thanks for the feedback. This bug is because of a hidebody command in the wrong place and has been fixed in the next release. I'm just putting the new version through its paces and will release it very very soon. Stay tuned.

[Whyte_Out 10]

Oh, ok well thanks for fixing this problem. My server looks forward to this release. Thanks again!

There is a problem with the Lingor Patrol Ops release. There are two versions: patrol_ops_203_co_isaf.lingor and patrol_ops_203_co_usmc_n.lingor. Both of these show up as USMC North in the missions list in game. One says ISAF (Lingor units) while the other says it's USMC. The USMC seems to be fine, but the ISAF version is actually played as the BAF.

Will be giving this a go on clafghan cheers!

[xclusiv8 10]

I dont know if this has been asked before but what mission types are included in each operation type setting? For example if i choose Task Force Ops. What kind of missions can i expect?

Thank you.

[Whyte_Out 10]

If you go into the files, and click on the readme it will tell you sir.

Sorry for being such a hassle. I downloaded the mission from armaholic and the .rar file doesnt contain any readme file just the different .pbo:s.

Thank you.

[JuggernautOfWar 1]

In the parameters there are a number of operation types. Task Force Ops, General Operations, All Operations, etc. What exactly do these different settings do?

[kiberkiller 10]

When can we expect the new version?

Great Stuff - many thanks for your hard work and for giving this to the community!

[[lb] boggler 10]

Thank you for this really entertaining mission!

[Persian MO 82]

finally...:) tanx..

[tvig0r0us 27]

Always had a great time playing this mission with friends. Great work as always:D

[pero2589 1]

Thanks for updating it + hopefully more ACE version will be released next week.

Awesome Roy86 played for hours yesterday! Question: When you are looking for the Weapon cache and you get the "Hints" ?900m what exactly does that mean? Does that mean the Weapon Cache is within 900M of marker?

Correct, as you get more Intel, the distance will shrink and you can triangulate the cache position within a certain area. keep in mind that Intel can be "bad" and may give a false or over/under exaggerated distance. Those missions were designed with the more dedicated tactical teams in mind.

I'm glad to hear you guys are enjoying it. More versions on their way including more dedicated ACE versions with Wounds. All versions are ACE compatible but only the dedicated ACE versions have ACE Wounds. Also preparing OPFOR versions ;)

Sadly due to technical issues, I will have to cancel versions for I44 and other mods/maps not listed for now. I will gladly assist with instructions to adapt it if someone wants to do it. PM me if needed.

Cheers,

Hi,

Loaded up the ACR version on my server today. A couple of immediate issues;

1. The AI unit recruitment doesn't seem to work (in that no units appear in the window). I have ACR loaded on client and server (the vehicles in the compound appear OK).

2. The flag at the main base is a Union Flag and not the Czech flag ;-)

I also got an error with a 'protect the officer' mission - but I can't reproduce it, so I will give further details when I can. It said something like 'Error : No vehicle at Return point".

[Whyte_Out 10]

You can manually change the flag if you don't like the flag that is their. That is what I did, I changed a lot of stuff on the map. Re organized the base etc. I changed the flag to American, and British. And thank you EightySix for the wonderful game mode. Hope you continue with bettering this mission mode. Just a thought, don't know if its already on them or not but have you guys thought about adding in "Team Status"?
