Secret ofp resistance 5th island?

[Master_Chief 0]

I was doing some editing in ofp and i came across the res

landtext.pbo file. I decompressed it and looked through

it because I was wondering what it was for because only

one texture is used from it (the desert texture on the intro

island) and i noticed a .pew file, which is used by Visitor.

I opened it in Visitor and discovered a new island called

devilslake. It only has one texture (the same as the intro

desert) and no buildings. But is also a square island in that

it takes up the entire map so it isn't like the original islands.

It is kinda useless as an island but it is an interesting bit

of ofp trivia! I wonder if it was just a side project that never

got deleted, or if it was a planned 5th island that never got

going. it looks cool, maybe somebody could finish it someday.

interesting.... maybe somebody could put one large city on it.. and we could have some cool CQC battles in mp.

Yep he is right... It looks pretty cool too has some high elevations and is mostly mountains. I just looked at it in buldozer. Looks pretty cool wish there were some objects on it tho. I would try to finish it but I already have 5 islands on my list of things to do.

Oh highest elevation i found so far is 399.983

EDIT: Well in buldozer it isnt really mountains... It is more of just a gradual increase in elevation until you get to a peak most of which are quite high.

i put it into ofp and it is really flat and boring.

I just found something. If you depbo the DTAEXT.pbo and go to the "m folder" there is a pac/paa of an apmine.

EDIT: If you unpbo bridge1.pbo there are a whole lot of weird martian looking textures.

[Master_Chief 0]

i think that is the east tank mine

[jakerod 254]

Dont think it is it looks compeltely different.

EDIT: Also in the bridge1.pbo there is a file called stepbridge.p3d and a lot of other bridges about 5 p3ds of them.

its funny these things never made it into the real game...

Its funny how no one has found this stuff before.

probably BIS left it there by accident they have been known to do that, in one patch they had an addon called VBS church it was just a .p3d but it was in the patch.

very interesting *feels like searching eastereggs*.

please somebody go and make that church available for public ofp

may i ask in which patch it was included ?

there were quite a few goodies in CWC - i think there was also a bike before resistance made it... or was it a mountain bike in resistance that didnt make it... i dunno - lol... easter eggs have been found alot in OFP - very cool

You do know that bridge1.pbo is a 3rd patry addon

It comes with the Meekong Delta map, and the "martain" textures you speak of are actually the ones form SEB Ia Drang island.

i only remember that itsy bitsy tiny helicopter modell (the jetranger??) that is hid somewhere in the game code.....but i don´t remember the commands to get it onscreen

Ya I actually started suspecting that after I looked at the paa and pac files more closely as well as the p3ds after I realized all the bridges were jungle looking. Don't know how I got that though I only have like 10 addons on my computer and they are all Airplanes minus the Hermes.

There's a AP Mine in FP. Get the new Editor Update (or was it upgrade) or the old one by Gunslinger.

I saw bis did intend to make an ap mine, i saw an html file when i depbo'd a data file, not sure which one but it wasn't an addon. It was that file where it tells you the weapon specs and info when you press the "i" in the gear selection under an official weapon like the ak74. It would be nice if bis finished all these things and released them as a patch.

(It was not an at-mine, it said ANTI-PERSONELL MINE)

Just de-pbo stuff in the res/data directory to find it. I never saw the actual mine though. Just info in an html file.

Mmm this island sounds like a good base to build my Afghanistan island on, thanks for the info (btw how large is the island 12, 25 or 51km)

[jakerod 254]

Despite me being an island maker for the past year or 2 I do not know how big it is. I think it is the default because im pretty sure visitor can not make any maps that are any bigger.

[Ironsight 1]

Can someone mail it to me in WRP format, I can't get it exported in visitor (I stink in Visitor!!!!) please send it to daanuiterwaal@yahoo.com

By forward thanks
