Ptroinks 0 Posted November 27, 2001 I tried making overview\briefing files for a mission. The briefing works now, but I can't get the overview to show in the game. I edited another overview to fit my mission, and everything looks just fine, but it won't show... any tips??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quickdraw_01 4 Posted November 28, 2001 You need the Operation flashpoint mission assistant it is a little program that does it for you I can't remember where i got it from but try OFP sites. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 1 Posted November 28, 2001 u don't need anything. sometimes it's cuz people get the wrong sixe pics for the overview.... it took me ages to get it working cuz the writing was either to long or not appearing on the overview... yes it helps if u get templates but try without.. if u stil dont succeed send me the overview and the mission and i will get it working...... another thing make the picture appear in the middle of the screen of the program.

Ptroinks 0 Posted November 28, 2001 I've tried all of the "assistants" I could find, but I get all kinds of error messages when starting\running them. In my opinion, they SUCK ! I think I know how to make the briefing work now, but I'm still struggling with the overview. I read somewhere about how to make .jpg-files work in it by sizing it to 128x64 or something... tried it... didn't work... Rob, if it's ok, I'd like to send my files to you (can I send the entire mission to you. I'd like to get some comments on it...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
