Vikingo 0 Posted August 21, 2002 Hi all! I just put online my second mission. You will have full control  of a soviet nuclear silo based missile complex 'Dvina-Class' that have two 1.3 megaton SS-4 'Sandal' medium range nuclear missiles. You also have ready three SCUD mobile launchers for short range attacks. This time tests are over and you will see real action against NATO! Full readme in english included. The link (in english) to the mission files is just below the sample pics at the main page... http://www.operationflashpoint.com.ar Note: You have two versions to choose from: a "full" one for high-end computers and a "lite" one for more humble machines... The pics below are samples from the mission... I hope you will like it. Vik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vikingo 0 Posted August 21, 2002 Hi there! Many thanks to all for try the mission and for the comments... I'm right now updating the servers and I hope it will stay up. </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">It looks really cool but atleast on my computer in comes up No Entry 'config.bin/ CfgVehicles.LampRedInternal' when I go to preview it (I extracted it).  Any idea what this is or how to fix it? Thanks.<span id='postcolor'> You have to make sure you download both parts of the Addons files and make sure after installing you copy the one called "streetlamp.pbo" to the Addons main folder of the game. If you have already this .pbo you have to overwrite it because this one (beside the original lights) have other light class used in the mission.  Don't know if the mission works with Resistance if you try it there maybe is that. Please tell me if you can fix it... When you play the no-extracted version runs fine? If you want you can try deleting the LampRedInternal object with the editor. It's inside the radar station... Hope this helps. </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">whoa!

Othin 0 Posted September 2, 2002 Wow. I was extremely blown away by that mission. I wasn't expecting the detail that you put into it but I've got to say I'm glad. I'm also glad I was able to run the full up version as I would hate to miss out on anything. A few questions/comments though... I also received the "groups" error that Albert Schweizer mentioned. I downloaded the addons and installed them all, so I'm not sure where that came from. Do you have another addon that adds more groups to your mission editor? Sometimes it will go to the silo or nose cam view regardless if I have it turned off on the radio. It will also not let me exit out of it once it is on. I've tried 0-0-7 and 0-0-8 to no avail when I'm in that view. I can't seem to reproduce this error everytime, but occasionally my SS-1 drivers will just hop out of the vehicles when they're parked at the base. This only seems to occur if I take off bymyself somewhere. Co-op or multiplayer version of this mission would be awesome! Again, my regards for my favorite singleplayer mission in OFP so far. Are you working on anything else now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-CCCP-Stalker 0 Posted September 2, 2002 I can't download the mission because when I start loading the page with links my IE goes crazy and drops me off. Can you give the direct links here ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really that was my objetive in this mission. I try to have ALL the things I can place inside the silo complex. I have to build a "lite" version of the mission for play it here because the full is too much for my PC hehe but in the full I place all the things I love to see inside the base, so great that you was able to run it well there and you like the little details! Your questions: </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">I also received the "groups" error that Albert Schweizer mentioned<span id='postcolor'> Are you running it with Resistance 1.75? That is why the "Groups" bug appears... Try to run it under 1.46 (using the "old" .exe of the game) and the groups error will be fixed. I don't have Resistance so I can't test it there but I receive reports that the "groups" error appears there...as I know the error don't harm the mission just that message displayed. But better play it under 1.46... </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">Sometimes it will go to the silo or nose cam view regardless if I have it turned off on the radio.<span id='postcolor'> Please make sure u select the turn OFF option before giving the launch order...

Maybe they hop out because in the script is a code that make units go "cover" Â after a explosion... This also can happens when you play the mission at night. They go out the launchers. I place that because if not I wasn't able to turn the lights off... so I make them go out. I don't know other times they do that... I will test that more.

I think the same. With other fan "G." we test a modified version of the mission under multiplayer but we can't make the targeting system work :-( All is because the markers that are used to target the missiles... Under MP you can place those markers to point stuff inside the map and when you try to target the nukes the game think that you are placing those markers so the order never get received by the launchers :-( Â I think other system for target the nukes have to be used for play the mission in MP... Hope to have something soon. </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">Again, my regards for my favorite singleplayer mission in OFP so far.

Vikingo 0 Posted September 3, 2002 yes, that is the file... Download the "lite" version (12 MB) and the "addons" (6 MB). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRiME 1 Posted October 1, 2002 I tried porting it to MP and managed to get it done and to 2.7megs total with mission and addons and still keeping the sound etc, THO the player markers don;t work the same in MP so you can't send the nukes off, Bit of a dag so I was wondering if you knew of a way for it to work in MP? since the game does not seem to be able to see markers. I ungrouped the scuds to the player would that have affected it? it does work in SP fine thought. I didn't put my name anywere on it so no need to worry about me stealing ya map Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRiME 1 Posted October 2, 2002 yeah I took out a couple of addons like the sat building and put another building in and put a computer inside insted . Not like people gonna care since the other sat building was not that high quality. IN MP I don't expect people to even go near that building, + I added a few more tanks and took out the heavy version etc etc and NBC with Spez. Kinda turned it into assault kinda mission but one problem is getting that marker to work in MP, now I know you CAN make it so you have a preplaced marker and just use action commands to move it around on the map in MP however this wouldn't be as fast as just using the mouse. Anyway if ya want the edited version I did you can. Its yours afterall ICQ me on 4014970 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
