Btw why aren't these addons under WEST. I would have changed it myself for myself but the pbos are encrypted so it doesn't work.

Is there a reason why these addons arn't under WEST.

[miles teg 1]

It's cuz some people might want to use these addons to fight against US forces or maybe British or German addons. At least that's what I assume.

However if you really want them to be on the East side all you have to do is group them with a "West" officer (with rank set to Colonel) but with his "probability of appearance" slider set to 0%. The rest of the group will be on the West side now and the #2 unit in the group will be the leader (as you will not see the West soldier).

But you have to remember to do this for every OFrP unit or group which can be tedioius. But still it's fairly simple to do. I had to do this with the Malvinas Mod where they made British soldiers East and Argentinian soldiers West.

But at least since the OFrP addons are Resistance it's much easier to change what side they are on. So I think it's alright.

but I have to disagree there France has been a long friend and ally of NATO and I seriously doubt that US, Gemrany, France or UK are childish enough to fight each other.

US and French Forces have had a long militrary history where they supported each other. In the US war of independence it was truely the French Navy which desimatted the British Navy which allowed the US to win, in world war I the US , France and evan the UK shared the same trenches, in World War II the UK, US, French resistance libirated Frace, in the Korean war we saw the allies pull together as in the 1st Gulf War too.

The only notible war wear France didn't take part was in the 2nd Gulf War becuase they didn't see a point and justification to fight. I don't think that this little obstical would make these two countries going to war.

Leave the resistance side open to countries which have a truely neutral stance like Indonesia, India, various Militia groups, etc.

Maybe, but trust me, to many Americans France is an enemy now. To the Bush administration and many conservative Republican politicians here in the US, France is also seen as a main competitor for economic and political power in the world. To them France is a roadblock standing in the way of American global dominance. So I personally believe that France could VERY easily become an opponent in war. Come here to Texas and talk to people here what they think of France and most will tell you that they are the enemy because they supported Saddam Hussein and backstabbed us by trying to stop our invasion and protecting Saddam Hussein.

I'm American and a Texan, but I don't believe that and I also was against the war in Iraq (although I supported the war in Afghanistan and the first Gulf War). However I am very frustrated here because so many people where I live are like sheep and don't think for themselves. Liberals (left wingers) here are a miniority. Instead they believe the right-wing politicians who keep saying that Saddam was reponsible for 9/11 even though there is very very very little evidence of any significant connection between Saddam and Al-Qaeda.

So these people, despite strong evidence to the contrary, believe the French are HORRIBLE traitors and backstabbers.

So while you may not believe this to be so, I can tell you that if France tried to intervene in future conflicts by, for example, putting in troops in a country we wanted to invade (like Iran), America would go to war with France if France didn't back down.

I feel bad for France because they are caught in the middle between extremists. Islamic extremists HATE France and many Americans HATE France.

It's a crazy world we live in.

Fortunately many Americans still love France so I guess that's a good thing. Much depends on the education level of the Americans you speak to.

Great addons! I also would have liked to see them on the West side but we can't always have everything we want.

Thats alright, I enjoy these just the same. The only thing I am not too fond of is the sound for the heavy machine gun on the vehicles.

@Milesteg

I am a conservative Republican and I do NOT hate the FRench. In fact I appreciate their martial tradition very much. BTW, you are quite naive if you think allied countries such as the members of Nato dont compete with each other for economic or intelligence advantages. That has been going even before NATO and it is not a new phenomenon. Suggest you do some historical research.

Also if you would like to trade places I would be more than willing. I live in Caliweird and am tired of the majority of crybaby liberals here! I'll trade you, Caliweird for Texas!!!

Very nice set of addons! Pity there are no tanks yet, though I did track down an SAF AMX10 - when did france get rid of these - they might be ok for 1985, perhaps?

Btw why aren't these addons under WEST. I would have changed it myself for myself but the pbos are encrypted so it doesn't work.

I had no problem using Amalfi's pbo decryptor (v1.5).

And thanks to Miles for the pointer to Remo's site - the legionnaires and marines are cool, and there's a campaign as well, plus the pbo of music.

Now, if only I can figure out how to get Le Boudin to play...

Thanks a lot for your interresting comments about the hate/love relationship between the US and the frenchs, Miles Teg.

Sorry to start speaking of political matters in this thread, but I think such discution is necessary in order to help US and France understanding each others. That is the reason why i'm feeling that I've to explain the french point of view, in the hope of helping both our countries to understand each other.

I 'm french and I totally agree with your point of view. French peoples really feels that they're treated like an ennemy by the US citizens - and also some UK citizens (french peoples are experiencing this every days on the web, where they're insulted on a daily basis).

All this propaganda stuff is really stupid, because it deserves both France and the United States.

The french peoples think that it is the duty of a true ally to try to stop them doing a mistake. This is what happened with the GW2, where Irak was not seen by the french as a true threat (they've almost no weapons left in comparison to GW1).

The imaginary threat of massive destruction weapons and the alleged link with al quaeda is seen by the french as a manipulation of Bush friends lying to the american peoples (trying to trigger their paranoia, in order to manipulate their opinion easily).

The Bush government is trying to expand US domination over the world for their own personnal monetary benefits (not for the benefit of freedom of the Iraquis, or for suppressing an illusory threat to the US) and doing this, they're sacrificing the life of US soldiers without consideration for their families.

The french peoples where anticipating that the war would be won easily by the american troops at the expense of just a few casualties. But they also anticipated the many casualties that followed. As long as the US soldiers would occupy Irak, soldiers of the coalition would die because the iraqis would never accept the occupation of their country by US forces.

Also, there is the problem of the embargo that killed thousands of Iraqis, and sure the peoples in Irak are resentfull because of this.

France was not willing to participate in this war because it didn't seems legitimate in the goals pursued, and because of the risks involved in adding more ressentment in arabs peoples.

It was like putting oil on fire. Sure, the removal of Saddam is a good thing, but it was not the goal pursued by the Bush government. The threath of biological and chemical weapons was seen as a true hypocrisis from Bush, as it is the US government that sold thoses very weapons to the Iraqis.

In the eyes of the frenchs, this war was motivated only by the greed of the Bush administration, at the expense of the American peoples and Iraqis, and would not ease the suffering of the iraqis and suppress the alleged threath to the US, but instead increase the Iraqis suffering, and increase the hate of the USA by the Arab peoples, thus resulting in many more death among the US and Iraqis.

To the french peoples, theses events have shown how the Bush government didn't hesitate to manipulate the american peoples to achieve their own private interest, sacrificing lives without hesitation, and only putting more oil in the fire and thus reinforcing the support to the Islamic extremists.

French peoples have no doubt that the US Bush government would not hesitate a minute to declare war on France if it served it's own purpose.

The fact is that since the fall of the Eastern Block, there is no counterbalance to US military power, and that an unscrupulous government like the Bush one is not hesitating to use the economic and military power of the USA to try to achieve world domination. US peoples want to give freedom to the rest of the world and protect themselves, and the Bush administration is using theses feeling to manipulate the americans and use the US army to oppress other peoples in order to achieve economical domination, sacrificing peace in the process.

French peoples have generaly no doubts about the good and legitimate intentions of american peoples; they've also no doubts about the hypocrisis and the unscrupulous behavior of the Bush administration, and the many risks it involves.

In european history, we've already seen several times such governments using their citizens in order to achieve their own interests through world domination (no need to name them, memory is still very present). Europeans have already suffered a lot from the hands of these peoples (as have the americans during WWII), and as such, we are very unwilling to commit ourselves in such a mess.

So, I don't see why american peoples should see the french as ennemies. We've been friends since the creation of the United States, and we even have taken part in it. They should rather take heed of the warning and open their eyes and see for themselves the risks that the Bush administration represent to the USA and for the peace of the world.

@horrido: Brought a tear to my eye. Good read.

[horrido 0]

As a gesture of good will and true friendship, I'm wondering if I should include a "white flag" addon in the next OFrP release, to please even the anti-french players of Operation Flashpoint

-Horrido

[spad 64]

don't forget to add some white flag for british and us troop they were used it too during the WW2

[hellfish6 7]

Very good post, Horrido, but I'd like to ask that anybody wishing to comment on it should quote it over in the Iraq thread in the OT forum instead of discussing it here, where we should only bask in the glory that is the VAB.
