Winters 1 Posted March 20, 2004 Why not switch those times around a bit and make it from 12PM-7PM eastern time which would be 6PM-1AM GMT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedyDonkey 0 Posted March 20, 2004 Quote[/b] ]but can you see the movie, damn I am member there so I dont realy know! I can. Reminds me of a documentary i say last thursday, where a cow was stuck in his own shit. Edit: Winters idea is good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ozanzac 0 Posted March 20, 2004 To be really honest: I hope you decide to play this at around 3 pm GMT time, so then I can copy my OFP directory onto my portable hard drive, and play it at uni (in the dead of night) without being harrased by the IT staff. Then I would have a kick ass ping, and finally be able to show off my skills for the greater good. Give me a time, and a date, and the required addons, and I'll be there.

Winters 1 Posted March 20, 2004 3PM GMT would be 9AM EST and 5AM on the west coast, not good at all. I think my times are best to get maximum participants, we will never be able to get a time that works for everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedyDonkey 0 Posted March 20, 2004 Yes i vote for Winters sugestion. I would like to ask a couple of questions to blackdog, but im soo blocked right now  (or he's offline, i don't know) What about addons? BD's server usually has shitloads of good but very big addons. And i certainly hope we don't have to dl all of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted March 20, 2004 We need a moderator to pin a thread and lock it. And inside there is the information on WHAT TIME GMT HOW TO FIND THE SERVER (or maybe we open 2 so all can play) WHAT ADDONS / VERSIONS ARE REQUIRED IF this is not done then only the smartest of us will find their way there and I am not one of them!

EST is -5 GMT? You mentioned 3pm (afternoon) GMT and night. I assume you ment 3AM (Night/morning). Hence the confusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just remembered I have a Pocket assistant that deals withh all this time zone conversions according to my local time, I just have find it and hope it has battery power, (because the at the moment, I'm lacking in the brain power to do it manually) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr burns 132 Posted March 20, 2004 Why not switch those times around a bit and make it from 12PM-7PM eastern time which would be 6PM-1AM GMT. the best solution so far- at least for me.. but since i got work to do on Monday, every hour later than 1 AM would be overkill  Quote[/b] ]but can you see the movie, damn I am member there so I dont realy know! Nope couldn't see it do you both mean --> this <-- movie ? has been previously posted in the military stupidity thread Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted March 20, 2004 can someone help me, everytime when I do multiplayer the PC freezes. I cant do anything, tried reinstalling. There was a time when I tried direct play and it froze for the first time.But reinstalling should have solved that no? Problem solved, but I cant update to 1.96, I tried 1.95 and then 1.96 but it remains on 1.91 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It should work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ozanzac 0 Posted March 20, 2004 Run the new FLASHPOINTBETA.EXE that the "beta" updates would have installed into your main OFP directory. If you run the FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.exe you will only ever run version 1.91 (at least until those beta updates are made official) Hope that was stated clear enough to solve your problem.

The various Kegety's snow addons and some of the latest Bas-addons drive me mental. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted March 20, 2004 yeah... I was so happy that my system perform so great. So I took the new ardennes island, ECP mod, hiskies skies and a bunch of stupid heavy weight addons and threw them into battle. FPS was about 13, probably so low because of screenshooting who knows. In 2 years when we got 6 ghz I hope we can finally play big battles at 20fps° Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IceFire 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Looks like there are some problems with the scheduled times. I am now working to change them to something more reasonable. Winters time idea is a great suggestion. I might have to reset the date for NEXT sunday. That would give me time to make adjustments that would allow for almost EVERYONE to play, if everyone is willing to wait that is. Then we can see more forum members playing in the server. And THAT is a GOOD thing. I am also on AIM under GhstDrunk if anyone wants to speak to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
