Winter Addons

[theavonlady 2]

Kegetys, are you working on the remaining vehicles, aircraft, etc.? If so, do you have an estimated date when they'll be available?

TIA.

Quick Question...If the winter add on is placed on a dedicated server, a client that connects but does not have the add on will NOT download it from the server...correct???

[kegetys 2]

Im lacking motivation to do them right now... But maybe someday.

But I dont think snowizing the aircrafts would be a very good idea... If theres snow/ice on the aircraft you're not allowed to take off afaik. And the aircrafts are kept in hangars when they arent in use so no snow would could ever get on them.

Regarding the aircraft, of course, my over-zealousness.

Umh... King Kong, did "yup" mean that it causes problems?? If yes, then please tell me what...

And, the vehicles do leave tracks in the snow too, like with any other surface. (They dont look any different though)

Yes, thats why they call it unofficial, i had downloaded one addon wich was full of bugs and Windows forced me to delete the addons folder, i had to reinstall the game.

Urrh... the original question was does Winter Kolgujev cause problems... And, no addon can mess op your OFP so bad that you'd need to reinstall (or delete the whole addons folder) if it is a standard addon with just a PBO file. Just delete the PBO and you have uninstalled it.

When i started up OFP with the addon it crashed and then i restarted my computer(it also screwed up my videocard, it changed the resolution from 1041×768 to 640×480 in 16 colour mode), OFP didn't start anymore while scandisk gave me the error log when restarting my pc. i deleted the addons folder via DOS and started windows on safe-modus then i reinstalled OFP.

So the problem wasnt the addon but instead your Windows filesystem driver screwing things up... Windows 98 or ME I believe.

Get a real os

I have now installed and tried the winter map (briefly) - everything runs fine so far.

Well done Kegetys.

I have been out of the mix too long. Those Winter Maps look killer! To bad I may have to RE-Buy the game being my original Game CD is all Scratched up and it won't install now after I redid my system
