hello I have downloaded your mod before and i got this error..

"Addon 'GLT_Falcon_A2_config' requires addon 'GLT_Falcon'...

I removed GLT_Falcon_A2config' and i get the error....

"Addon 'GLT_Falcon_OA_config' requires addon 'GLT_Falcon'...

so i deleated your mod..

I noticed that you recently updated.. so i downloaded it again with the hope that it would work this time...

I still get the same errors...

I would like to use this mod as the Pictures are amazing.. I would like to see them in action

[markb50k 1]

DAF has a version of the GLT F16 that uses the mod name "GLT_f16" instead of "GLT_Falcon".

The easiest way to fix this is to either....

edit the config file in the GLT_F16 pbo to add the GLT_falcon mod name like this:

class CfgPatches {
class glt_f16 {
	units[] = {};
	weapons[] = {};
	requiredVersion = 0.1;
	requiredAddons[] = {"CAWeapons", "CAAir", "GLT_Missilebox", "Extended_EventHandlers"};
};
class GLT_FALCON {
	units[] = {};
	weapons[] = {};
	requiredVersion = 0.1;
	requiredAddons[] = {"CAWeapons", "CAAir", "GLT_Missilebox", "Extended_EventHandlers"};
};
};

OR, edit your _a2_config and _oa_config PBOs and go into the config files and EDIT the "requiredAddons" line by replacing "GLT_Falcon" with "GLT_F16"

Larsiano said he didnt edit the GLT F16 pbo, so he may have an updated version from GLT Myke. I'm not sure, but the above is how you can fix your issue

[larsiano 12]

Darn, i thought i fixed this one. When i noticed the older RNLAF reskin complaining about the missing glt_falcon i changed these mismatches to the new classname glt_f16 hoping to be rid of this error once and for all. I haven't seen this bug sin's the last patch and also couldn't replicate this error with the download version of Sixupdater. If Mark also reports the error is still present i just have to dig deeper or use the above mentioned fix. But on the other hand the first question for me would be what version you use and what other addons you run at the same time?

you might also want to set the scope of the AMB guys to 1, the original ones crash my game to desktop, and the new daf_amb_1 is ALL RED. The only guy that works is the test guy you put in the dutch pack

[chrisb 196]

Have been using the DAF in a small mission on ‘Sbrodjistan’, really great looking troops and equipment. Thanks for sharing a great mod/addon..:)

I worked with the first option.. I de-pbo'd the GLT_f16 file in the @DAF/Addons folder, and added that exactly...

class GLT_FALCON {

units[] = {};

weapons[] = {};

requiredVersion = 0.1;

requiredAddons[] = {"CAWeapons", "CAAir", "GLT_Missilebox", "Extended_EventHandlers"};

};

That solved the error message issue and I can play and use all units..

This mod is great thanks for all your hard work!!!!

[larsiano 12]

congratulations on the release :)

[spliffz 1]

I found a bug!

I allready posted this on the Tangodown forum, but here seems to be a good place too.

We (TangoDown) updated the server last night with the new DAF.

Me, being damn enthusiastic started updating our Patrol Ops only to find out the units don't work anymore!

all the a2020 units are bugged, they're missing p3d files I guess.

here's a picture:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4379522/TDNL/arma2oa%202012-12-16%2015-22-32-256.png (2577 kB)

I tested it on a empty map, got the same error.

Then I disabled DAF, and the error was gone, so it has to be in the units.

After a quick test we found out that is was only the a2020 units. When a other unit was selected (like Men > desert rifleman (hk416) ) or some sort, they would work fine.

Hope this can be fixed soon, cuz it really breaks the game :(

[lordprimate 159]

[mrwesley 11]

why delete the PZF_3 & WPZ_3T ammo? those are used with the Pzf itself, as far as i know the Phanzerfaust that you deleted could use that ammo and the HEAT rounds. And the Pzf only uses Pzf_3 ammo.

[larsiano 12]

Two versions is a little to much. The Vilas version is configured much better, its also a bit stronger and inherits from the MAAWS in stead of the M136. Also the Vilas version has 3 (maybe soon 4) ammo types: [TABLE=width: 144]

ehm if you mean SIXupdater, yes but some problems with my dropbox file are delaying the deployment :)

[RudyFaasse 10]

The mission ACE MSO DAF 4.5 is not working. It says you cannot play/edit this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted.acex_c_cweapon,RNLAFC130, daf_cougar_c

maybe it's me because I havent got ACEX somehow.. I will try this again

Edited January 12, 2013 by RudyFaasse

[larsiano 12]

Darn, All the missions could use an upgrade, this task is always the last on my schedule & as you might know we just lost the TDNL mission editor :) so it could take a while to get everything done. I'll try to fix it and re-release the mission.

[jptiger 1]

hey guys, great mod but only a couple questions.

-can you please add handguns to the infantry units,

-will there ever be a 50mm bushmaster version for the cv90

-will there be a version with a machine gun mounted upon the turret (like many other IFV/APC/tanks

-can the c7/8 rifles (new units) be modifield so you can look over the scope aswell (no sight needed) (currently it sucks at cqb)

thanks

[larsiano 12]

I can configure the units to have handguns, ill try to take care of this before the next release. The other 3 i'll have to do some research on, i'll keep you posted!

[jptiger 1]

thanks for the quick response, working on a showcase with the mod btw, it includes a popuptarget course in the forest among others, figured out many of the objects i need and many of the scripts time to start building soon :)

[da12thMonkey 1943]

-will there ever be a 50mm bushmaster version for the cv90

I believe the development of 50mm Supershot for the Bushmaster III is pretty much dead.

I asked one of the team from Lockheed Martin about it when they were putting forward Bushmaster for our new Warrior turret, and they reckoned development of the round was ceased unless the UK or another country stepped forward to fund its development (40mm CTWS was chosen to arm the turret instead).

IIRC Germany was previously the most interested in developing the round for the Rh 503 canon, but they cancelled the gun leaving 50mm development without much funding. I don't know that NL or DK are interested enough to fund the project themselves.
