Thx very much for one more addon!  But I got a bug:

Same as Avon said about the "bas_o" missing but also both of the demo missions (the ones with the same name, only in one you're the BTR gunner and in the other you're a team leader) don't run at all.  It just jumps back to the main menu as if I'm missing an addon or something... but without an error message.   (Sometimes when I'm missing an addon it jsut quits to the main menu.)

Check file Flashpoint.rpt to see if an understandable error report was appended there when you crashed.

@Avon: I hope this is understandable! It's not to me! This is one of the TSF missions where it just quits back to the main menu, I think the one where u play as gunner of the BTR. O ya, another message i got was "cannot load mission missing addons: BTR_A"

anyways, here's my .rpt excerpt:

The exploding turret idea is a very nice feature I noticed with the original BTR-T pack, but have still not been inside one when the turret was blown. I do not know if there is a script built in for it, but I think best option is to make something small that detects if turret is present, and if not it kills any turret crew. It should also remove actions to get in as gunner or commander. I'm sure this has been thought of, but I have not seen if it is part of the addon or not. If it's not part of the addon, then maybe someone can write a script for us to use to have this more realistic option.

I personally enjoy this feature, it reminds me of the days when I played Steel Beasts. It has pros and cons for both vehicle crew and enemy to the vehicle. But it adds a bit of realism and extra fun that adds more to the game. Hopefully this issue can be figured out and resolved.

Maybe a little off topic, but it could also just be an issue with lag or the game itself. There have been many times that I have been in a tank or APC that was totally destroyed and I was still able to jump out alive. Maybe not in the best health, but still alive. Although one time I was in a M2, heard an ATGM fired and heard a hit nearby, but assumed it was a miss since my damage graphic showed no damage (all white). I was in the gunner's seat alone in the M2, and was still able to scan for targets and fire the weapon. But when I wanted to hop out, I looked behind me to see the M2 was a black mangled mess. Totally destroyed, and it was killed BEFORE I got out. Not sure how that was possible, but it happens in both MP and SP at times, both slow and fast PC. This might be related in some way to what happened to you Lt Hunter.

This is part of the readme file from the original BTR-T addon.

Maybe this might explain why you do not see the turret explosion.

Quote[/b] ]***** OPERATION FLASHPOINT BTR-T Addon *****

Release 1, Update 1

FEATURES:

======

In Resistance side you find each camo version of the BTR-T without markings. These vehicles don't use the turret explosion effect,

so you should use them in case you had problems with invisible turrets before.

FIXED BUGS AND CHANGES:

- Removed the turret explosion script from the alternative variants of the BTR-T (the variants without markings)

Yes, it does.

Its a random number script (nothing to do with the power of the weapon that hits it)

Every time the BTR is killed, it generates a random number, if its above a certain value it'll blow off. Guess you're just unlucky wink_o.gif

WL+1, 1 Week PR.

Take that tounge_o.gif

I didn't knew the turret could be blowed of, I've played the mission where you played the BTR-T gunner 3 times (RPG's blew me up 2 times wink_o.gif ) but mine didn't blow off rock.gif

Maybe shoot a couple of times on it in the mission editor wink_o.gif

Ok, for those that are having trouble with not seeing turrets blow off. I have done a fast test runs at smacking empty BTR-T's lined up five in a row, hitting with both T-55 and M1A1. Results and pics are below.

First run I used the Rebel BTR-T, and after 3 runs of 5 kills, not one turret blastoff. That's 0/15

Rebel BTR-T vs Rebel T-55

Number 2 screenie

PIC12.jpg

Pic shows 4th of 5 Rebel BTR-T's exploding, no turret explosion

Second series used the Gevernment BTR-T, only needed 1 test run. Out of 5, 3rd one blew turret off.

Number 2 Government BTR-T

Number 3 Goc BTR-T with turret explosion

Notice missing turret

Killing last of 5 Government BTR-T's

Standing next to blown turret

PIC21.jpg

Here you can clearly see the turret on #3 Governemt BTR-T was blown off

Hope this helps a little  rock.gif
