Y2JON 0 Posted August 16, 2003 Hi, I'm making a 007 James Bond mission (which will hopefully be released later today). There is just one final thing to do to the mission before it is complete & I begin to upload it. Can someone please help with this small problem, as the quicker it is sorted out, the quicker I can release the mission. I am using this 170 x 64 jpg picture for the Mission Front/overview (Bond pic here). The picture is the right size because it is the same size as the real OFP Mission Pics. I placed the picture before the Overview in the mission folder and this is the Overview HTML: Quote[/b] ] <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250"> <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0"> <title>Overview</title> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <br> <h2 align="center"><a name="Main"></a>James Bond: D & D</h2> <p align="center"><img src="Bondlogo.jpg" width="170" height="64"></p> <BR> <p align="center"> <! --- struèný popis mise> <b>You are Bond. James Bond. A group of Hamas Terrorists have a Nogova High Security Airfield at their mercy. You must stop them and find out who sent them!</b> </p> <! --- konec popisu mise> </body> </html> Anybody see why it's not working? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanctuary 19 Posted August 16, 2003 the name of your pic if i look at it up there is bond.jpg And in your overview, you typed Bondlogo.jpg Quote[/b] ]<p align="center"><img src="Bondlogo.jpg" width="170" height="64"></p> can be an answer Edit , i tested in one of my mission , i have an error that do not display bond.jpg at the mission illustration in the menu To solve this i made a 256*128 version of your picture and then it worked like a charm. So it seems that you cant use a 170*64 jpg picture directly My solution is : make your bond.jpg a 256*128 picture , then you can use it perfectly to have a menu 170*64 illustration Quote[/b] ]Quote[/b] ]<p align="center"><img src="bond.jpg" width="170" height="64"></p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Y2JON 0 Posted August 16, 2003 Sorry to rush you Bosun, but is the graphic resize nearly ready? Our mission is complete, but we are just awaiting this pic to be able to release it. No pressure, or anything, lol Thanks again, by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanctuary 19 Posted August 16, 2003 I made one for you Here it is 256 X 128 picture , feel free to use it (click on it and Save AS..) The name i put is BondLogo.jpg , change it according to your Overview Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Y2JON 0 Posted August 16, 2003 I'm afraid it's still not working. I must be doing something wrong: I saved and named your new logo: Bondlogo and once again, this is the Overview: Quote[/b] ]<html><head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250"> <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0"> <title>Overview</title> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <br> <h2 align="center"><a name="Main"></a>James Bond: D & D</h2> <p align="center"><img src="Bondlogo.jpg" width="170" height="64"></p> <BR> <p align="center"> <! --- struèný popis mise> <b>You are Bond. James Bond. A group of Hamas Terrorists have a Nogova High Security Airfield at their mercy. You must stop them and find out who sent them!</b> </p> <! --- konec popisu mise> </body> </html> I exported the mission to single missions and this is what it said on the description: James Bond : D ?ny popis mise> You are Bond. James Bond. A group of HAMAS Terrorists have a Nogova High Security Airfield at their mercy. You must stop them and find out who sent them! Hopefully, you may be able to see what's going wrong now! Thanks for all your help so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bosun 0 Posted August 16, 2003 sorry, tried that for you and it doesn't work... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winters 1 Posted August 16, 2003 i compared your overview with some of mine in missions i have released and where the pic works fine. I noticed one difference: Your overview has this line: <h2 align="center"><a name="Main"></a>James Bond: D & D</h2> My overview would has this line: <h2 align="center"><a name="Main">We Stand Alone, Together</a></h2> change this and you should be set. Hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanctuary 19 Posted August 16, 2003 Compared your overview with one of mine By replacing my text with yours, here is the Overview you should try <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250"> <meta name="GENERATOR" content="VB"> <title>Overview</title> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <br> <h2 align="center"><a name="Main">James Bond: D-D</a></h2> <p align="center"><img src="Bondlogo.jpg" width="170" height="64"></p> <BR> <p> <! --- struèný popis mise> You are Bond. James Bond. A group of Hamas Terrorists have a Nogova High Security Airfield at their mercy. You must stop them and find out who sent them! <br> </p> <! --- konec popisu mise> </body> </html> It seems that the "D & D" you put gave a problem in the menu , that is why i typed D-D This overview works for me i tested it with a quick mission , change some details according to your wishes EDIT important the copy paste is wrong here , because of accentuated characters that this OFP forum take wrong , in the line Quote[/b] ]<! --- struèný popis mise> it should read Quote[/b] ]<! --- struEný popis mise> With the E is e accentuated in the direction left , the forum code dosent know it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winters 1 Posted August 16, 2003 I just noticed that myself and was about to post it. Thanks. You cant use the "&" character in briefings or overviews as it tends to screw it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Y2JON 0 Posted August 16, 2003 Darn! It still won't work. I've tried everything everyone has said and changing the pic sizes. I'm using the Bond pic Sanctuary posted just up the page and I've uploaded my Overview file for anyone who wants to help. It's only 642 bytes: My Overview Perhaps this way, we'll finally be able to figure out what's wrong with it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winters 1 Posted August 16, 2003 You cant use the "&" character, use the overview that sanctuary made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanctuary 19 Posted August 16, 2003 IF you want, PM me your mail adress, i will send you my modified overview that works for me with your text Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Y2JON 0 Posted August 16, 2003 Forget my last post. The thing you said worked! Thanks a lot for all your help. I know I've been a bother, but you've all been credited in the mission ReadMe. The mission is being uploaded now! Thanks again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanctuary 19 Posted August 16, 2003 Great The forum members defeated the evil overview file Good luck with your mission Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Y2JON 0 Posted August 16, 2003 Yeah, thanks again guys. It's great that the people on this board are so supportive and helpful to one another. I would just like to tell you the mission has been released now, so hopefully people will enjoy it. Just in case you are interested, you can download it from here, lol!
