Doolittle 0 Posted January 5, 2003 Hi. Â I've played the Battlefield 1985 missions & the scripting in that is awesome. Â The spawn interface & everything is very clever & original (in OFP world, yes I know there is also a game under the same name). Well today I logged onto a server hosted by http://www.clan-gnc.com and they had a mission that was the exact code from Battlefield mission, except the authors name was removed and someone else had their name in there. Â BOOO!!! This leads to the question, how can I distribute missions that cannot be DePBOed??? Â I noticed missions that the game temporarily downloads cannot be DePBOed (or am I mistaken). Â I tried playing a LAN game & then looked at my temp mission which was downloaded & that could be DePBOed, so maybe you can't DePBO only the internet temp downloaded ones?? Is there a solution out there? Â Or do we just expose people and say BOOO which doesn't really do anything. Doolittle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, that's as far as I'm willing to get involved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RED 0 Posted January 5, 2003 I could unPBO the temp missions that got download, which tool are you using to do this? RED Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Destroy someone you want destroy (the leader of a mod that kicks you for exemple) I never sign my code, if someone takes it and put his name, after I can't use it without his name? If not ----> hall of shame? More After this you can create a script licence. A register of ban (computer, IP, game, physical adress, photo, number of identity card) Ok in my next mission you will see : Design by ------>  uiox  <---------- Scripts by ------>  uiox  <---------- Cutscenes by ------>  uiox  <---------- Sound by ------>  uiox  <---------- Voices by ------>  uiox  <---------- Triggers by ------>  uiox  <---------- Waypoints  by ------>  uiox  <---------- Bugs by ------>  uiox  <---------- Inplayability  by ------>  uiox  <---------- Bad english  by ------>  uiox  <---------- I forget something? by ------>  uiox  <---------- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You left out the second half of what I said: </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">if it's hosted by someone relaible and accepted by the player community.<span id='postcolor'> Find someone who personifies that likeness and get them to do it and chances are that the list will be the most reliable around. Will there be mistakes? Possibly. They're correctable. I remember a list or two like this back in my Delta Force days and it came in quite useful. People were removed from the list when it was apparent that a mistake had been made or names got mixed up or someone was spoofing someone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or create a rumor forum, or humour forum? No, finally I prefer the BOOOO of Dolittle and a touch of mépris. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doolittle 0 Posted January 5, 2003 Well BOO to you for making me have to look up the word Meprin. Â Actually my post was more to wonder how I could make it so a mission couldn't be extracted. Â That's all I'm worried about. Â Er, concerned, not worried. Â Er, let's just say CURIOUS, yeah that's it. Doolittle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACES_KEVIN 0 Posted January 5, 2003 I know of alot of other missions that shamefully have been modified without any credit.... I dont mind if some1 improves a mission and give original author credit that just helps the maps.... But when u change hardly anything, and give no credit in Doolittles words </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">BOOOOOOOOOO<span id='postcolor'> So lets try that shame thing see if we can fix this...

Major Fubar 0 Posted January 5, 2003 Sometimes it's essential to be able to dePBO a mission though, not to rip it off, but to adjust number of players or such. As long as the original author is credited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
