Aculaud 0 Posted July 9, 2002 A lot of you know by now that, in a lot of special operations missions, theres usually always some enemy tank, or apc thats lying around somewhere with no one in it, that you can use to wreak absolute bloody havoc on the enemy with. I was playing sniper team this evening, and i decided to do things a bit differently. This time, i went to the "Chopper base". Its marked clearly on the map to the south. It takes a while to get there on foot, but in the end its worth it. Of course, this wouldnt be a chopper base without at least one chopper lying around, and low and behold was an empty Mi24 right in the middle of the base. The pilots were easy targets. They usually stand behind it. You just have to get in the right position and you can take them out easily. There were a few gaurds patroling the place, and a couple guys roam freely around that area, so you have to keep your eyes open to make sure the coast is clear. In a while, a truck will come around the bend to drop off some personnel. Included are a soviet sniper, the 3 spetz natz's that youre supposed to take out, and interestingly enough, a soviet soldier in a western uniform (I really want to know how they did that! ). Once you get rid of all them, you can make a break for the Hind. There is a T-80 that will seek you out at this location once it knows somethings up, but just be fast and you can be in the air before it gets to you. Theres also an enemy shilka here that a couple crew will run to once they know somethings wrong, but again, just be faster than they, and its nothing to worry about. Once your in the air of course, the rest is history! My kills included a T-80, a T-72, a shilka, 2 BMPs, a URAL, and 49 infantry of all types including the special forces guys that i was sent to take care of. This is why i love OFP. Its just a heaving mass of creativity waiting to happen  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IceFire 0 Posted September 15, 2002 There's a soviet soldier in a western uniform?? Â Where?? How do you know he's not really an american soldier. He's prolly a traitor working for the Russians. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Red Dwarf 0 Posted January 29, 2003 No it's real he comes up red and when you hover over him it says: Soldier (W. Uniform) i saw this when I was first flying over in the hind like aculaud suggested and bingo there he is. to the SW of the forest in the south west of the map. by a junction with a track leading off. There is a URAL sitting there (empty) with a soviet sniper standing by and next to him the soldier (w. uniform). I killed him once and walked over and guess what.. he isn't just wearing american uniform he carries an M16 too with other U.S. standard kit. I know what your thinking, the stupid idiots just shot a west soldier but I swear he's East, he shoots at you and all. And when targetting him in choppers etc. he comes up Red. Very strange, anybody got any idea what he's there for? I'll check later and get the grid reference cos he don't move throughout the mission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They also didnt appear on radar. I was able to kill them, but none of them fired back. SoldierEFakeW = West unit. SoldierEFakeE = East unit. SoldierEFakeC = Civilian with an AK. SoldierEFakeC2 = same as above. @Red Dwarf To camcreate something place a trigger and set its activation to West or radio alpha or whatever, just make sure you can activate it. Then in the "On activation" field write: </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">soldier = "SoldierGFakeW" camCreate getmarkerpos "marker"<span id='postcolor'> Then place a marker where you want your guy to spawn and name it marker. Preview and activate the trigger. I hope i made myself clear enough, im not so good at explaining stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harnu 0 Posted February 1, 2003 dwarf... this thread was from 4 months ago dude Got my hopes up when I saw Aculuad's name. What ever happened to that guy anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milkman 1 Posted February 1, 2003 Yeah, i've seen the soldier (W. Uniform). Its pretty weird although if you have kegetys addons, you can create a soldier called East Spy. Under east, infantry. Hes basically the same thing. That mission was pretty cool now that I think about it, I also did steal the chopper but never said anything about it. Anyways yeah icefire, he is probly a traitor or a soviet in a taken outfit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
