Trying to run the Christmas winter mission in the FDF mod and on the briefing section it pops up an error saying cant load this file. Anyone know ehat Im missing? I have the russian weapons and winter terrain installed per the readme instructions.

Does the mission still work if you click through the error message?

It seems to. As far as I can tell. Is this common? (to get error messages that dont mean anything?). Just trying to get the perfect OFP install so I can image my disk (backup).

Somewhat. It usually happens for one of these reasons:

1. You don't have enough RAM and OFP didn't map an addon.

2. An error in an addon's config.

Usually, the only problem that can occur from this is that you might miss some cutscenes.

I have 1024 megs...not that.

Is there a way to check the config? Where is it?

// ADDONS

class trabant: Car {};

class m163A1vulcan: Tank {};

class su25: Vehicle {};

class ch_47d: Helicopter {};

class apac: Helicopter {};

class hmmwv: Car {};

class brmd: Car {};

class brdm: Car {};

class bmp2: Tank {};

class kiowa: Helicopter {};

class m2a2: Tank {};

This is a cut and paste form a portion of my config in the C:\Program Files\Codemasters\OperationFlashpoint\finmod\bin directory. Does it look ok?

my motto is: if the game still works after clicking "ok" then it aint a problem

ive had this game for 3 years

ive had "pointless error" messages for 2.9 years. its part of the game for me. lets me know my game still works tounge_o.gif

I was going to direct you to the FDFs forum pages where this question comes up quite a lot, but just checking now I cant see any examples.....

anyhow, the quick answer is no, you dont miss anything in the mission or the cut scenes.  I forget why....

...aha! heres one link..

http://www.tacticalblunder.com/~fdfmod/forum/viewtopic.php?t=539

and to quote:

It is a bug in FDFMod 1.0 and 1.1 which was corrected in 1.2. Also missions made with all version before 1.2 were affected and will complain about "Missing addon BMP2".

Older missions can be fixed by opening them in mission editor, previewing them and then saving again.
