Roc mod 2.0 released

[ralphwiggum 6]

as Confucious says,

"Patience is the virtue"

in my term, it would translate,

"give them sometime since their server is oversees, and stop whining! don't make me go nuts!"

Just for being so nice, you can download the files twice.

Some comments for ROC Pack 3 (if the makers even read this):

1. It would be great if you guys could build and include new islands with the next ROC mod. Right now it's just a little bit wierd to fight the PLA in very European islands. I don't think it woould be too hard to merge the missions with the new islands. Maybe there could be a ROC island (with training grounds, etc.), a PLA island and a neutral island?

2. More emphasis on the PLA. Right now they are just Chinese soldiers with Chinese weapons using Russian vehicles like the T-80. How about asking Sigma-6 to use his Type-98?

Or retexturing the T-55 and BMP to their Chinese counterparts:

Type 59

and WZ-501

Maybe the DKM mod would even let you modify their Patria to look like a WZ-523/551

3. Otherwise, I'm very impressed by everything so far. Keep up the great work!

All i can say is WTF to your mirrors marykay. Keep in mind i'm on a 56k. When it starts, it starts at like 400kbpsm and i get 2mb downloaded in like 3 seconds. But then, it stops dead in its tracks and doesn't continue. I mean, i'm not looking for it to keep going 400kbps, but at least slow down and keep going. It just stops

Edit: It seems that Tawains Workshops page is going good now.

Edit2: Grrr....damn DAP asks for the FTP password every 5 seconds. Any other mirrors?

Hmmm................... maybe I shouldn't bother anymore.

From other reports I received yesterday, Filefront's servers were maxed out a good part of yesterday. Surprise! Sunday is downloads day!

Just looked now and the servers are only about one third full.

Setting up a filter for my downloads. from now on, I'll make everyone go through this url:

Maybe your modem has been affected over the long term by passive smoke.

Excellent stuff from the Taiwanese Team.

However there seems to be a serious prob with the textures for PLA army troops. Both the boots and the helmet come out white, as in untextured. I would take a screenie, however I've got nowhere to put it.

All you have to do to see it is to watch the start of the Taiwan 2002 campaign.

Finally, i can post. Took days for the forum to fully complete my registration.

Anyways, the texture problem on the PLA soldiers can be fixed by switching off Hardware T&L. Just use the reg 3d. That will fix the problem. Thats what the creators of this addon told me and it does work.

It might resolve the problem but I'm not about to change my OFP preferences just because of a faulty addon.

[hellfish6 7]

Yes, I forgot to mention those textures. Unfortunately, I don't think that I can change my T&L settings. Poop.

Radeons give me 'cannot memory map' errors and don't let me change my T&L... hmmfff!

Can I be a total 'tard and ask what ROC stands for?

Republic Of China ...the official name of Taiwan.

Note the Difference between PRC (People's Republic of China).

[supergrunt 1]

io dont know about all of you guys (and girl sorryyyy avon lady )

but i DONT read taiwanes so i dont understand anything about the briefing screens (ok some of the details are mentiont in the intro movies but its not enough info)

the pla addons could get a fix (agree on that i dont lower my machines capability for a coupe of addons)

but i have to say i like what they did i like the addons i like the missions (the ones i understood like bootcamp)

to bad they arent good in english so their text could be better

but all on all not a bad addon

greets

supergrunt

[hellfish6 7]

Yes... I think the missions are really well done (I still LOVE the HALO jumps and the other mass parachute drops I do as a Special Forces guy. I have to go back and see what the regular airborne campaign is like.) But the briefings are all in Chinese. Sometimes that's not a problem because when you start the mission, sometimes the map will tell you where your target is or a radio message will tell you where to go or what to do. But there was a time or two where I really had to bust out the detective work to figure out what the hell I needed to do. Especially the mission where you have to rescue the ROC officers (though once you figure out what's going on, it's a really cool, well done mission).

I'm looking forward to the next version of it - hopefully with fixed textures and new Chinese vehicles. I'd even volunteer to convert the missions into fluent English, but I'm a lazy, lazy man and I doubt I'd ever finish it.
