Vietnam Era Search and Destroy Mission

Recommended Posts

I've just completed my latest mission. Its a Vietnam mission which uses only the most necessary addons. Its full of nice scripts and has been play tested to death on my computer. Its much better quality than a lot of my old missions. Have a go, tell me what you think.

Here are some of the features of the mission:

You play Lieutenant James Gastovski, a young marine fighting in the Vietnam conflict. A VC force has been spotted moving into an area of Ia Drang. Along with two other squads, you must go in and destroy the enemy.

Full weapon selection.

Tank support.

Gunship support.

Intellegent VC snipers.

VC spotters use flares.

Minefields.

Audio for all radio messages.

Intro.

Outro.

Hardcore enemy engagements.

and much more.

All addons have working links in the readme.

Here is a list of the addons with links.

Great mission! I haven't completed it yet (got to the t55 part) but it is very fun. I lost a few guys in the minefield-at first I thought it was mortar rounds landing down on us, but it became more intense when I realized it was a minefield crazy_o.gif . What I assume is the last part (the part with the t55) got very intense. I knocked out the lone sniper on the hill and when "no problem" and advanced. Before I knew it 2 or 3 squads of VC plus a t55 came over the hill wow_o.gif . That was an entertaining part. I called in tank support, unfortunately a t55 round landed next to me before it reached me. The air support had been shot down. Overall a great mission!

Mission Editing Competition  smile_o.gif (MEC for short)

EDIT:

finished  smile_o.gif

overall it is a good mission, but there where few bugs. first of all my squad refused to follow me after they reached place where m60 tank was. they just stopped and didnt go any further. (f***ing cowards tounge_o.gif ). then i very frequentely check my map. and once i found small blue squared. guess what was it.  biggrin_o.gif this way i avoided minefield. last fight was way too easy. i just shot t55 into barrel from 30 meters or so. tank wasnt destroyed but couldnt fire anymore. then VCs started to rush while i was lying on a slope and nading them  ghostface.gif

there were no use of support. tanks never came (same bug as with my squad) and chopper was just flying above. So i finished this mission all by myself. Rambo - first blood  ghostface.gif

also outro never ends. screen went black but i still could hear a chopper. after 1 minute of waiting i just presses alt-f4  crazy_o.gif

I've never encountered those bugs.

Try playing again and see if they happen again. If they do I'll look into it.

For those of you who have some skill at editing, try de-pboing

the mission and change the intro cutscene music for the ootp file in the folder. It goes in the bit where the M113s roll in. biggrin_o.gif

Anyone else had any trouble with this mission?

Also, has anyone tried to change the music in the intro?

Played it earlier, didnt spot any bugs. My squad managed to survive it which doesnt normally happen, although one bloke got injured when one of the other squads tripped a mine. Good mission wink_o.gif
