[markb50k 1]

Hi all, in last week's update to my SP mission LOST, I gave limited support to OFrP. Now, with the latest release, I have now given more choices for OFrP factions for use, on all 10+ map versions!

Supported Friendly Factions:

"@OFrP Regular Infanty",

"@OFrP FELIN Infantry",

"@OFrP G3 Infantry",

WTF Guys . Is it really 3.1 version? Looks like 0.31 version. I have played only for 5 minutes and already found two big problems! :confused:

First . Leclerc and AMX10 cannot fire at middle and long distances (bad config i suppose) So frenchpoint armor absolutely useless vs opfor. Check it in editor and you will see :mad:

Second. AMX10 error messedge when destroyed.

So when ver 0.32 will be released???? :confused:

Hey, buddy, you shouldn't be mean to others. Making addons is a hard work. Sharing addons is a generous deeds. If you don't like it, you may delete it, but stop talking like that.

Unacceptable behaviour, if I were you I would think twice before posting something of equal setting.

You are treating something which people made in their free time which they provide you for free as well as if its nothing.

Infraction+2 for this insulting behaviour of yours.

@rest, ignore the troll

@Ihatecheater;

If you have been able to read all the OFrP post, you would have seen this sentence.

The OFrP 3.1 is not the final version.

First of all, this version hadn't to be released, but because many guys requested it, we have changed our purpose and released a mod between beta and final version. So be clement with us.

For this reason, all vehicles haven't a destroyed model, and other things...

But we tested the mod with the patch 1.59, and there wasn't crash to desktop.

Fortunately for us, and for all the ArmA mods, most of the ArmA community isn't made by guys like you.

OFrP on Operation Flashpoint, was based on 32 members and 18 partners, on ArmA 2, we are just 4 members, but with great partners as MAF team or ADO Clan. The work is very important and we have no enought time to test all the addons.

Be patient, for the OFrP 3.2, which will be the last release of the mod.

Thank to all the members, who support us here.

Cheers.

[tigerforce 90]

I forgot to say that the Hawkeye is on the good way ( you can see it in the second screen).

[SuicideCommando 333]

Awesome work guys. Looking forward to the new version.

[evil_brownie 17]

Just realised this while looking at the afformentioned screenshot, is the carrier going to "work", as in, simulated arresting cables and catapults?

[scarecrow398 43]

its so pretty...

[tigerforce 90]

Just realised this while looking at the afformentioned screenshot, is the carrier going to "work", as in, simulated arresting cables and catapults?

Yes with automatic Landing and Takeoff, as well.

[jumpnjack 10]

This looks great! Im really happy to see more carriers in Arma 2 and those heli and fixed wing looks awsome! Lways top notch work from you guys!

[SuicideCommando 333]

Very nice work again, loving those HK's and the desert COS units.

[nikiforos 450]

I was really sad cause game crashed with the old version. Now Im really happy that the update will fix this and also because this mod is one of my favourites :)

[panda123 10]

TigerForce, OFrP team: since I love to have your CAESAR batteries working in single player missions (my PlannedAssault generated missions, or anybody else's) , I've done some editing and tweaking of your config to see if I can make things work.

With the following changes to the config, and two additional scripts to deploy a group of CAESAR vehicles, the AI will be able to fire artillery missions successfully using the Arma2 artillery module. See below.

If you need assistance or clarification, please leave me a PM. My french is limited.

Config changes:

1. provide matching ballistics table for the 155MM shells (ofrpmod\scripts\wheeled\155mm_ballistics.sqf), and

2. register the ammo accordingly (done in the ballistics file, which is evaluated at mission start time).

Click to see ballistics table. According to the ballistics, the gun is capable of engaging between 280m and 8900m.

// ARTY Module ballistics table.
// Magazine: OFrP_18Rnd_155_HE
// Ammo: OFrP_OBUS_155_HE
// AirFriction: -0.0002

4. associate the 155mm ballistics file defined above with the magazines, and define additional magazines for WP, Smoke, Illum and Laser.

 
class OFrP_18Rnd_155_HE: VehicleMagazine
{
 scope = 2;
 displayName = "155mm HE";

{
 displayName = "155mm Smoke";
 ammo = "OFrP_OBUS_155_SMOKE";
};

Config changes (continued):

5. make the CAESAR (separate) gun vehicle an artillery vehicle (same for TRF1b):

 
class OFrP_Canon155mm_TRF1: OFrP_Arty_attachto_base
{
 scope = 2;
 model = "\ofrp_wheeled\OFrP_Caesar_canon.p3d";
 displayName = "Canon 155mm TRF1";
 class Turrets: Turrets
 {
  class MainTurret: MainTurret
  {
  ...
  };
 };
 artilleryScanner = 1;
 ARTY_IsArtyVehicle = 1;
};

With the above changes, the CAESAR gun and ammo are correctly configured.

The next problem is that the Arma2 artillery module doesn't understand how the CAESAR vehicle is composed. The artillery module expects to find a gun in the CAESAR vehicle manned by a gunner. However, OFrP has designed the CAESAR vehicle as a truck with a single crew member. To this truck a separate gun is attached dynamically. This gun is manned only when the crew member dismounts the truck, and mounts the gun. The gun won't fire until the CAESAR vehicle has lowered its base.

Config changes (continued):

6. add the CAESAR gun 'vehicle' to the CAESAR truck vehicle's group when attaching it (in ofrp_mod\scripts\wheeled\caesar_montage.sqf):

 
private ["_vehicule","_canon","_canonenplace","_pos","_dir"];


_vehicule = _this select 0;

if (!local _vehicule) exitWith {};

_canon = "OFrP_Canon155mm_TRF1_b";
_pos   = getpos _vehicule;
_dir   = (getdir _vehicule) +180;

_canonenplace = _canon createVehicle _pos;

Additional scripts required, to be invoked after a CAESAR group arrives at its firing position.

This scripts orders the crew to man the CAESAR guns, to create a situation which the Artiller module understands. Then it removes earlier Arty module synchronization information and synchronizes again with the artillery module (the BIS_ARTY_F_Firebase call):

7. Script ofrp_mod\scripts\wheeled\deploy_ai_caesar_battery.sqf, to be invoked with the group.

 
private ["_group"];
_group = _this select 0;

comment "Identify the CAESAR vehicles";
private ["_vehicles", "_v"];
_vehicles = [];
{
_v = vehicle _x;
if ( !(_v in _vehicles) ) then { _vehicles set [count _vehicles, _v]; };
} forEach units _group;

comment "For every vehicle:";
comment "1 order the driver out";
comment "2 order the driver to mount the gun, as gunner";
comment "3 prepare the gun for firing";

private ["_deployScripts", "_script"];
_deployScripts = [];
{ 
_script = [_x] execVM "\ofrp_mod\scripts\wheeled\deploy_ai_caesar_vehicle.sqf";
_deployScripts set [count _deployScripts, _script];
} forEach _vehicles;

comment "Wait for all guns to be deployed";
waitUntil { 0 == {!scriptDone _x} count _deployScripts };


comment "Correct the BIS ARTY module battery scope information created";
comment "at mission start, when the game processed the synchronized Arty Modules.";
comment "At that time, the CAESAR vehicle's real gun (attached, not part of the vehicle)";
comment "couldn't be seen, so  the registered info is incorrect.";
comment "Now we are deployed with our group leader manning a gun, and ";
comment "we can update battery catalog's information with correct info, as follows";
comment "- remove the old batteryScope entry";
comment "- reinitialize the batterScope now all guns are manned";
if ( (not isnil "BIS_ARTY_LOADED") && (BIS_ARTY_LOADED) && (not isnil "BIS_ARTY_BATTERYCAT") ) then
{
private ["_batteryScope", "_newBatteryCat"];
_batteryScope = [_group] call BIS_ARTY_F_GetScope;
_newBatteryCat = [];
{ if (_x != _batteryScope) then { _newBatteryCat set [count _newBatteryCat, _x]; }; } forEach BIS_ARTY_BATTERYCAT;
BIS_ARTY_BATTERYCAT = _newBatteryCat;

[_batteryScope] call BIS_ARTY_F_Firebase;
};

8. Script Script ofrp_mod\scripts\wheeled\deploy_ai_caesar_vehicle.sqf, which is invoked by the script above. It dismounts the crew member and has it mount the gun and prepare the gun (lower the base).

 
private ["_vehicle", "_crew", "_gun", "_prepareGunScript"];
_vehicle = _this select 0;

comment "For every vehicle:";
comment "1 order the a crew member to dismount";
comment "2 order the crew member to mount the gun, as gunner";
comment "3 prepare the gun for firing";

comment "Ensure the vehicle doesn't move in response the group's leader moving about";
_vehicle forceSpeed 0;
comment "Use a small random delay, to prevent all crew members dismounting in lock step";
sleep random(2);

comment "Order the crew member to exit the vehicle, allow him to move, and prevent him to remount";
_crew    = (crew _vehicle) select 0;
[_crew] allowGetIn false;
unassignVehicle _crew;
_crew forceSpeed -1;

waitUntil { sleep 1; vehicle _crew != _vehicle };
_vehicle forceSpeed -1;

comment "Find the matching 'gun' vehicle, and order the crew to mount the gun";
_gun = nearestObject [_vehicle, "OFrP_Arty_attachto_base"];
_crew assignAsGunner _gun;
[_crew] allowGetIn true;
[_crew] orderGetIn true;

waitUntil { sleep 1; vehicle _crew != _crew };

comment "Prepare the Caesar system for firing, and wait until it's done";
_prepareGunScript = [_gun] execVM "\ofrp_mod\scripts\wheeled\caesar_batterie_on.sqf";

waitUntil { sleep 1; scriptDone _prepareGunScript };

To have a CAESAR group fire an artillery mission, you'd send it to a position, wait for them to arrive, invoke the deploy_ai_caesar_battery.sqf script, wait for the script to complete, and next fire an artillery mission (either using the Support module, or from a script).

Again, thanks for your work on OFrP!
