Missing addon message for dkm_mod

Recommended Posts

I had this problem in several missions. None of the missions reference anything to do with the DKM Mod or its addons.

I started removing addons one by one by date in descending order.

The cause of the error is file BTR70.pbo. This is a BTR 70, created by SEA DEMON & AKM74.

I think the error shows up whenever you have a mission that uses the standard BRDM by BIS.

The ReadMe says it's version 1.0b. Anyone know if there's a corrected version out there?

But what does this vehicle have to do with the DKM MOD or shouldn't I have asked? confused.gif

I dont use DKM mod because for example theire tunguska fires missiles wich travel at 14 000 km/h.

Other than stuff like that its pretty good smile.gif

Ehm, where did you find that the missile goes 14 000 km/h?

BTW, afaik the old BTR-70 used a interior of our Patria, that might have caused the error.

I made an eventhandler wich started a script that checked the speed.

The fastest non addod projectile Ive seen is probably cannons wich fire at 5000km/h but the tunguska fires at 14000 km/h. I red some info about it and it sayd the missile was supposed to travel at 900m/sec wich is 3240km/h I think.

well you can check that script again...

we set the 9M311 missiles maxspeed to mach 6.5, and yes, that is twice the speed of the real thing, it was necessary for ofp to actually hit a jet going at 800 km/h.

unrealistic? yes

you know what would have been really unrealistic? the tunguska firing 8 missiles at a fast jet and hitting nothing.

That was the case with 'realistic' mach3 missiles.

it seems your script missies the speed by a factor 2, either that or ofp is not sticking to its own rules.

Well, I think you should make it realistic. If you can't hit it IRL under those conditions, then you shouldn't in OFP. The crew just has to fly closer then. How can you want to make it unrealistic confused.gif

Well we had the choice between a missile system that will hit a plane with some unrealistic values (it would hit 80% afaik irl) and a system with regular values, that wouldn't hit anything and would make the whole system useless. What would be the point in using a Tunguska if it is only a Shilka with some decor attached?

Something regarding the "missing addon foobar" messages:

I have all of my addons installed in a modfolder (in different modfolders actually) and often get a message like that (which does not cause me any problems at all). But i noticed that it always are THE SAME addons which cause that message (eg sttdesertbmp, kegsw44 (or similar), soundlddk, objects). And yesterday i noticed that some addons tend to get included automatically in ANY mission you make, although they are not used in that mission at all and that those are the same addons.

Is this just because of the way (from what i've heard faulty) way ofp organizes it's addons, or is there something wrong with these addons? If it is the second i could make a list of those addons (at least from those i have in use)...

i get an error of the kegsw44 as well, along with some others that i cant think of at the moment. But it seems to have started after i loaded about 200mb more addons in, before that i never had any missing addon problems. And how to make mod folders!!! please someone tell
