mr burns 131 Posted July 19, 2003 when i hit an AH-64 with AK Bullets this appeared:http://invis.free.anonymizer.com/http....ttp ..but it wasn´t so bad, everything went on normal. I´ve got this (or kinda same) error message again. It occurs everytime when an empty Airvehicle crashes to the ground. I tried kamikaze into a House (not ejected) and nothing happened. Does anyone else experience this ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does anyone else experience this ? That means only happens this scripts failure when air vehicles destroyed. I 'll check that script. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goldmember 0 Posted July 19, 2003 I found it! Quick repair: Open GMR.pbo and look in expfire_air.sqs, find these line. [_vehicle] exec "\GMR\repesz.sqs" and replace to this one. [_object] exec "\GMR\repesz.sqs" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koolkid101 0 Posted July 19, 2003 Ekk I don't get the readme...... 1) Unzip and copy GMR_exploMOD folder to your Operationflashpoint directory. Choose form bin_versions forder one config.bin I can't even find bin_versions. Edit do I have to have the old verisons? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Choose form bin_versions forder one config.bin I can't even find bin_versions. bin_versions folder must be there when you open GMR_exploMODv1.31.zip, otherwise u should download it again. You don´t need older Versions, but i´ve downloaded Blood_INQ_to_v1.31.zip too, cause it wasn´t included in the main zipfile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 131 Posted July 19, 2003 Looks good.One short question though. Does this affect lag (in single player)? I try to avoid mods that cause major lag increase. I have a good computer but I tend to emphasise smooth game play to SFX. BM I didn´t notice any lag affected by the explosions or debris although i got a weak system.

Debhos 0 Posted July 21, 2003 hi this is a great addon to ofp put how could I get it to work with FDF mod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
@cero 0 Posted July 21, 2003 Do you have the FDF mod in a mod folder? I would thought so. All you have to do is go to the short cut you are using for the FDF mod, right clik and go to properties, find the target window and right at the end type ";" and the name of the folder where the explosions mod are, and then you'll be able to play the FDF mod with the explosions mod, in theory I hoppe this hellp.

It is not so easy, thIS won't work. My mod and FDF mod has a totally different config.cpp. We have to merge it to one and will work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AirwolfPL 0 Posted July 22, 2003 First I would like to say, that GMR ExploMod is one of more (if not most) valuable addons released. In connection with OFPEC Blood it makes whole game a lot better. I'm playing with those scripts for some time now, and I noticed some things: GMR ExploMod doesn't working for vehicles which uses eventhandlers (no matter which eventhandler is used), even if 'vehicle tree' is correct - it just doesn't work. If event handlers are used - there is also _no_ (any) explosion sound for such vehicle. So whole effect isn't nice if vehicle doesn't have any other explosion scripts defined in the Killed event handler. Of course it's possible to avoid that by using (for example): <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">Killed="[_this select 0] exec ""\GMR\expfire_air.sqs"""; event handler, but it forces addonmaker to attach GMRExploMod with his addon (and it's not very good solution I think). I don't see any other way to solve this problem.. PS.: Anyways, thumbs up. I think that such things like explosions, downwash effects, flames, smoke etc. should be standarized. I really don't see a point in releasing hundreds of downwash (etc) scripts - there should be just one good script called for all addons by the master config file - just like the explosions from ExploMod.

Fully agree with you Airwolf and wan't to add one thing.... They should all be multiplayer compatible! Goldmember have done a great job and this ExploMod adds a lot to the atmosphere with burning wrecks, smoke etc. but unfurtunately since it dosen't work in MP our group don't use it. I don't blame Goldmember for this but still hope there is some solution to get these nice effects to work in MP??? Maybe BIS could make the  "Smoker version" default with the upcoming 1.92 patch  /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeyCat 131 Posted July 22, 2003 After some more digging about eventhandlers in multiplayer I found the following info over at OFPEC and I think this is the root to the problem (or am I wrong?)... Quote[/b] ]MP notes: "Killed" and "Hit" event handlers are executed where given unit is local. All other event handlers are executed on all computers I don't have any major experience with eventhandlers (only used "fired" in a MP script I'm working on) but wouldn't a possible workaround be to use the "Dammaged" event in ExplosionMod instead of "Killed" and start the fire/smoke/debrie script when dammage value is greater than 0.99? Maybe this way isn't fast enough? Comments? Goldmember (or from other script guru's)? /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goldmember 0 Posted July 22, 2003 Unfortunately "dammaged" eventhandler don't work for vehicles, only mans. But we can try "init" eventhandler, it is executed immediately in mission start, but maybe it is will slow down gameplay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeyCat 131 Posted July 23, 2003 Me and Jotte just tested the new version in MP and unfurtunately it didn't fix the problem  The problem is the same. The host see's the vehicle explosions and burning debris, clients don't see any of the nice effects. Maybe there isn't any easy workaround after all? If I understand it correctly the objects are local to the host so probably the only way to solve it is to use "publicVariable" to update the clients when to start the scripts on the destroyed vehicles but that in turn will steal bandwidth and maybe increase lag? But I've been proven wrong before  /Christer (a.k.a KeyCat) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goldmember 0 Posted July 23, 2003 It is bad. That means - as we already talked about it - eventhandlers in main config.bin not working in multiplayer. Publicvariable not help in this case. Eventhadler will executes the scripts not any varialble. I cant make any variable that execute an eventhandler! Only way that making multiplayer missions and implement this vehicle burning scripts manually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
munger 25 Posted July 23, 2003 Regarding getting Dynamic Range to work with this mod, I was wondering if the 'soldiermoving' elements of the config.cpp for the 1.46 version of Dynamic Range could be used in your new config.bin? That config.cpp is a fully working file made and used before modmaker's could create bin files and in theory if you cut and paste only the bits you need (the bits to do with soldiermoving) from that into your new config it may still work. Let me know if you want me to email it to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
