bas_repair.pbo

[PRiME 1]

Just wanna know if anyone knows the issue with this addon file?

You know what im talking about, the missing addon "bas_repair" BS, I have poked at the config.cpp for hours at end to find no solution at all, this issue is related to this addon alone, no other addon has anything referencing to bas_repair at all.

Copy of config.cpp below:

I can only suspect it may be caused by it missing a certain class that should be defined, thats all I can guess atm. This issue only appears on dedicated servers btw, and appears to go away if addon is moved into the root addon folder but that is no good as the annoying error message still pops up.

Search The FAQ for "bas". In the first matching FAQ item, there's a download link for an unoficial fixed version of the BAS repair file.

Putting "requiredAddons[] = {ah64};" into the cfgpatches section should fix it.

Avon, must be blind, never did find that link.

Stick the addon in your regular addon folder. If you got a new release of Flashpoint you might not have one therefore make a folder in your OFP directory and call it Addons. Put that addon in that fold and you will never get that error again. There are a couple of other addons that give the same problem...i.e. skidoo

They have eyes, but they cannot see.

Alright alright, its all good,.

Thanks for benu for pointing me in the right direction, as you may have known I wanted the solution for this problem which benu gave so now I have fixed several addons that had this issue,. ;)

[bonko the sane 2]

this could be a good thing to do, to fix older defective addons as the skidoo, kegetys revolvers and a few more, maybe authors permitting we could post a few fixes to "defective" configs?

Yeah, i fix those addons where i notice errors on our server too. And players downloading those addons with ofp watch will get the fixed versions. There have been several of those "broken" addons around. You notice them pretty quickly in mp, people using them will display warning messages when going to the briefing screen.
