Ecp released!

Recommended Posts

This was from a private conversation so I hope I don't offend the author or supply false information by quoting it here, but...

Quote[/b] ]Unfortunately, however, the ECP team seems to be slowly dissolving, moving to other projects, etc. However, I personally have tons and tons of ideas that I would like to incorporate into it still, so perhaps it will stick around for the long haul.

I also look forward to any possible release from the ECP team. With permission (ofcourse), I'd like to see several FDF features implemented into ECP, such as portable fuelcans, attaching satchels to vehicles and the parachutes that show in the gear menu. Aswell as the features of Geneal Barons test config (weapon wobble, group spacing, etc) to be released in a new official version.

Cap.

Hi guys,

the ECP team has had a reshuffle but work has been constantly on going. A new ECP version should be released in the not too distant future.

You may ask why we haven't had an update before now? Basically its because we have completely rewritten the ECP--yes that also means the architecture--and the results are  wink_o.gif  well you will see the results when we release it, and I will be surprised if some folks don't fall over.

You can expect true performance gains that will hopefully knock your socks off and a very high chance that the save game bug has been "killed" or if not then fatally wounded.  tounge_o.gif

The next ECP has also been delayed simply because it will be THE largest update that we have ever attempted. The code that will be in the next release has been in development for the ECP since well before our first release. LOL it has taken this long to develop it.

I am tempted to let u all in on the other goodies that will be included in the next version but the time is not right--sorry sad_o.gif . I don't mean to tease I am simply letting you all know that we have not "dissolved" nor are we likely to. The new revelations and code that we have discovered is further laying the foundations for even more ground breaking improvements that we are striving toward. But it takes time and perseverance and bloody hard work.

Many of you may not realise that it was only two individuals within the team that had the staying power and final push to release the very first ECP version one--so believe me when I say that we know what hard times are....we have been there.

And hey--if you are that worried about our status, then you can always join us and work on the next release smile_o.gif

Have you tried using the -nomap command in your shortcut?

What does -nomap do? Removes something or ads something that usually helps resolving problems in Flashpoint.

-nomap    =  do not load maps into memory on startup

-nosplash =  do not show intro while loading

-mod =         additional MOD Folder

EXAMPLE:

"C:\Program Files\Codemasters\OperationFlashpoint\FLASHPOINTBETA.EXE" -nosplash -nomap -mod=wgl

You're still using the beta? I know it's the same but makes sense to use the final version no? smile_o.gif

Examples of shortcut........
