Release Italian Army from PedagneMOD

[CanadianTerror 0]

Ok, I have to be honest. This is a decent 2nd beta release but I dont know if I'm going to use it a 2nd time and here's why...

A) It's all in Italian so it's hard to figure what's what.

B) The weapons are all old addons with no updates.

C) The "extra" addons you need should have been packed somehow, I think it's kinda ridiculous to have that many.

D) Having a blood texture error msg pop up every time someone is shot in the back is annoying (and a rather obvious bug)

E) I'm getting a missing weapon error msg that doesnt allow me to use a lot of the units and like I'm going to have a clue as to what it is with all these addons.

Is there a script for the troops swapping sides during a fight or fleeing the battlefield?

Is there a script for the troops swapping sides during a fight or fleeing the battlefield?

why do you ask?

i get the message at the start of ofp

no entry 'config.bin/CfgWeapons.ar7090

and in the editor when i try to use these Units: Autista, Tiratore Scelto EI

i get the message: modelspecial (or sth like this)

but all in all, for a one man work it is really good. a bit unpractical, because armored, vehicles and units are mixed, but really nice

Edit: Ok, i found the reason for the error message with the weapon, but now another one occurs:

Size: 'cargoAction/' not an array

I think they'll just do it on their own without scripts, that's their nature.

That's a big problem with alot of addons these days...the addon maker/s don't bother to test out their mods or addons in a seperate mod folder with NO unofficial addons in the main RES/addons folder.

This is why you end up with addon packs like this with tons of units missing stuff or having errors.

Also having to rely on tons of 3rd party addons is a very very bad idea. As Canadian Terror pointed out they should at least be all in one pack if the author was unable to just borrow the textures, scripts, models, ect.. from other addons.

By forcing the player to download tons of extra stuff it only causes vast confusion and creates alot of problems later, when the 3rd party addons are updated.

Anyhoo...with that said, this mod definitely has alot of potential with many excellent looking units. I hope that its updated so that the pack is less buggy and easier to install.

Leopard 1 was built by Peiper (BW-Mod/MMP)

Please change credits immediatly

You can say "Immediatly" to another person not at me!

If you want to tell me more explaination, I hear you.

By my information model is by sigma 6, and i ask them the permission to edit it.

I will hear correct request of explanation not an arrogance "immediatly".

Its clear?

Sorry, this week i leave my house for Job.

OK...there are many problems because some addons are old and some are new, so with new crew.

In next days i will reply to all, and i will organize better the release of my addons and my site in general.

Thank you and sorry again.

yeah, you're right,

it looks more like sigma's tank. but you have to remember they are from mmp, they are used to talk that way.

the update sounds promising. some of your updated san marco guys still use the weapons of the beta release, i think about two or three.

ohh, and after i put those in the folder i receive that message.

Size: 'cargoAction/' not an array , but i dunno what addon causes it.

...ok, i don't say NO, is not true! but is not admissible the MMP kind way to say me "immediatly"! Its an education issue, first of all.

Ok, speaks about OFP.

San Marco Gun and EI gun: Riffle its made by preparation H. I tested it, and i have no problems. I tested also other gun. So in next days i will make an unic mirror with the needed addons not mine, in one .zip file, that i used for my models.

About "cargo action" i don't know too, now. I will check out better vehicles config.

A) The site its also in english (my English its very bad, but i think that is more comprehensibile for you that Italian Language). A little Italian tuttorial of the commands that you find in Ofp when you use my soldier:

Indossare Occhiali = Put goggles on

Togliere Occhiali = Take goggles off

Camuffare il viso = Camouflage face

Togliere Elmetto = Take off helmet

Indossare Elmetto = Put on helmet

when you have a tank or pilot crew, the last two are:

Togliere Casco = Take off helmet

Indossare Casco = Put on helmet

when you have a CSBN ground sniper, the last two are:

Togliere Cappuccio = Take off hood

Indossare Cappuccio = Put on hood

Vehicles:

Aprire Portellone = Open Door

Chiudere Portellone = Close Door

Aprire Tetto = Open Top

Chiudere Tetto = Close Top

Eliche fuori = Open helix edge

Eliche dentro = Close helix edge

If i forgot some word or if you want to know more, please tell me.

B) work in progress

C) One pack in next days

D), E) Please tell me the soldier where happen it.

To MILES TEG: i tested my addons many times before to release it. It was no sufficient!

When you make something, its possible that you make a wrong. When you make nothing, is not possible that you make a wrong!

thank you to all

Quote[/b] ]D), E) Please tell me the soldier where happen it.

Actually, it was soldier(s) not just one soldier in particular.

It also reminded me of the last version which had a lot of the very exact same issues/bugs as I mentioned earlier so I didnt expect to see any of this fixed anytime soon.

EDIT: I would be glad to help you beta test this though in future to nail all these bugs if you want. I think you could use some help in that department.

[DrFin 0]

i would also be up for helping beta test ..always happy to support a mod bringing a new nation in to the ofp family ...soon we might have our own un ..we have the paint jobs for it

[Tomislav 0]

i don't have that bug with the missing blood textures, it works fine for me.

when i try to use these Units:

 Autista     Tiratore     Scelto EI

as i said on page two, these three names appeare in the pedagne mod section of the editor. they seem to be units, but when i want to try them out it tells me "modelspecial".

and something that bothers me is that i haven't found these names in one of your configs, and i have looked into all.

and yeah, Beta Testing sounds great as i'm no longer involved somewhere. (only if needed and wanted of course)

[cbfasi 4]

I thought great, LVTP-7...

Catch...

You really need to clean this one up, multiple duplicate textures, and from the appearance many many double sided faces that may not be needed (rear lights an example)

The front lower slope has 8 faces all occupying the same postion, and 2 different textures on them too, this affects the visual appearance quite a bit in ofp as its what drew me to look at it on O2 just to see what was going on.

If this model was cleaned up (this will take time I suspect) it woudl have a reduced poly coutn from the current adn look much better.

Good start, but needs lots of further work

[arremba_san_zorzo 0]

To all:

i release (while i writing this reply) un update of last PedagneMOD Release with the resolution of some bugs/problem:

•All the new released addons are organized in three .zip file: A_Pedagne20050116.zip, B_Pedagne20050116.zip, C_Pedagne20050116.zip.

This is my host possibility. In information text they are always indicated as a unique file: Pedagne20050116.zip

•All the needed addons (not made by PedagneMOD) are organized in one .zip file: ASZ_NeededAddons.zip

•No Bug in blood textures.

•Now in ASZ_A129, TOW missels are 8, not 2 (Cervo has reason).

•All the needed addons are downloaded another from ofp.info site and tested.

•…and other.

About "old" addons released at July 2004, i updated the crew of the LR90 in ASZ_ItalianArmyCars.zip with the new soldier.

More info on http://pedagnemod.interfree.it

To Miles Teg:

Its possible that are other bug or problems or .zip file corrupted during upload or download or....or...or.......

There isn't other space in my consideration for your disparaging words (if the author was unable to just borrow

the textures, scripts, models, ect.. from other addons).

I will look on only precise critics on the bugs.

I don't need assumptive teachears but i need friendly and constructives critics by "primus inter pares".

To Tomislav:

Autista EI (EI=Esercito Italiano, Italian Army; Autista= Driver) and Tiratore Scelto EI (Sniper) you can find at the top of class Vehicles in ASZ_EI config file.

In my test they work properly.

To CanadianTerror and DrFin:

thank you for your constructive critics and i'm happy to accept your beta tester offer for the future addons.

To CBFASI:

LVTP7 is my first addons nearly complitely maded.

So have many things that can be maded better. Thank you.

Thank to all, now i come back to job.

[Tomislav 0]

i did not mean the EI i mean this one: (btw the sniper is working, my fault)

and is it wanted that these two are not equiped

[sgtkill 0]

i love this mod but it bugs the hell out of me when ever u go to the main menu i get a message that somthing is missing.And when i dont know whats missing i play it and some things say spec. model or somthing i just hope some one could fix it and possible next time it can be in english but thats not such a big thing to me just the bugs. Great job btw.just hope u guys can fix it.

[Tomislav 0]

Thanks...i'll enjoy it very much. And btw im downloading it now. I...didn't have time yesterday. It should be up in a bit.

[Tomislav 0]

as you see on my post above i have it now, at least, i needed a dl manager to get it cause it always broke up after a few mb and did not go on.

one thing that should be improved is the first person view of the zodiac, seems something went wrong there.

[cbfasi 4]

Although not clear on your pics I suspect that image fault with the LVTP-7 is the same I found and is caused by mupltiple faces occupying the same location. As can be seen the basic model is there, it just needs a facial!
