OFP Nostalgia Pack

OFP NOSTALGIA PACK (CWR III)

This is a revival of the OFP Nostalgia Pack.

 

Back in 2001 a few talented people created the first OFP Missions using the demo content and a 3rd party mission editor - remember the game was not even released back then.
It was the time where mission editing people were real men and exploited the game in order to find out how stuff is done. 😉

 

I have converted and fixed these missions so they can be used in CWR², and now again for CWR III. Where possible I added playable slots for MP usage, see the list below for a list of MP compatible missions and their player slots.
Converting these missions initially was a pain because the previously mentioned editor created mission files which are no more readable by Arma. That means I had to fix the bugs manually, then imported the mission and then started working on them once the mission became stable. Compared to that, converting them to CWR III was child's play (mostly).

I changed a few smaller things and scripts but I would say I reached the goal of keeping 90% of the original mission.

 

Please note:

Compared to todays 'standards' these missions are pretty easy, some would call them even 'crappy' - usually there is no fancy scripting and effects stuff. However playing these missions gives you an idea how it was back then in Summer 2001 as the community was awaiting the first War Simulation from a once great Bohemia Interactive.

 

I have to thank a lot of people here:
First off, all the people making these missions back in 2001.
Avon Lady for fixing the original missions.
Ghost for his helicopter insertion script.
Kronzky for his Urban Patrol script.
Mikero for his editing tools.
Shuko for his Taskmaster script.
Tova for his convoy script.
Anyone else I forgot.

Are these meant to be played in multiplayer? I couldn't find them in a mission list on local (listen) server, nor when we put ONP on a dedicated server* (with CWR+CUP loaded too, obviously). They are visible fine in singleplayer scenario list.

 

*I forgot - with dedi server you have also issue of pbo being not signed. We turned off signature verifying, but that was of no help - lack of signatures shouldn't prevent me from hosting missions on local server anyway (I think).

Updated the package, missions should now show up in MP browser. Is also signed now.

 

Let's see how it goes.
