Thunderbird 0 Posted January 20, 2005 I am really sorry for these errors which occur in online, my beta testers told me that there's no bug offline, but I've decided to create a config basing me on that of BIS to avoid the errors of CTD, I am still sorry, I work on 4 fronts, I will present my work as soon as I would have finished Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Hi allI've installed all the files from 'FlashFX 1.8 Units Replacement pack.rar' into a mod folder titled FlashFX. I've then linked my OFP shortcut to this but now I've got a question re. the file 'FlashFX 1.8 Misc.rar' The read me file says to move all the files into the main RES folder and to run the install_win2k_XP.bat file. Is this necessary? I had hoped to leave my RES folder untouched. As an experiment I tried placing these files into my new FlashFX mod directory and then tried to run the .bat file from there. However the DOS window gives me an error message stating: ERROR data.pbo not found... It still comes up with this error message even if I try moving a copy of the DATA.pbo file from the main OFP folder. Any suggestions? Am I barking up the entirely wrong tree here? Thanks Install the flashFX like a mod , but please be sure that you've all addons , the install.bat must function... But know I'm working to solve this problem of CTD ... Sorry again men Quote[/b] ]URL=ftp://www.gamezone.cz:8021/ofpd/unofaddons2/FlashFX 1.8 Units Replacement pack.rar]Ftp 1[/url]Ftp 2 Thanks a lot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are there only with an aim of igniting, to waste work, firstly I want evidence of your share which I stole something pertaining to your OFrP MOD second thing, before you excite yourself like that, I insinuated the use of the data being Here, I don't see nowhere that one is obliged to make a request for use data...

Silent N Deadly 0 Posted January 20, 2005 @SPQR: I think in situations like this it would be best to use the PM. Talk it out and make sure that it is correct. No use posting about it publicly right away. First try to talk and work it out priviatly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SPQR 0 Posted January 20, 2005 You have crossed the red line ! Is this logo for flying cows ? Is they anywhere writing : Hey buddy, do want you want with it ? We did it for fun Bobmoran belongs to Operation Frenchpoint Mod as his formulaes. Doesn't Mod sound clear ? Moreover these figures are already used by our addons and other things you ignore... so ? Would BAS let you JAM's figures, without asking first ? I don't think so. As usual, you do as you want, without caring about others around you. After all, they mean nothing just deserveing to adore you. It is not a prosecution for thievery... not yet. It is a Hot warning, as you aim to use our figures, and not as you insinuated it Quote[/b] ]Realistic caliber by using the data of Bobmoran If you erase this sentence, it'll be OK. If we find our figures in your further project, It won't. You are warned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted January 20, 2005 A true spine, but itsn't a problem, I WON'T USE HIS data This kind of comments doesn't have its place in public, best that would have been of me the statement by pm, because your single goal is to create polemic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted January 20, 2005 After a lot of errors reports just Online, I've decided that this config will be playable only in Single I'm waiting voodzia to begin replacing BIS units by Best addons basing myself on BIS 1.96 resistance config, But this time it'll be entirely possible to play Online I hope without CTD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silent N Deadly 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Hmmm, I seem to be able to play Y2K3 online fine... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Really ? Because Pappy Boyinghton 's changed a lot of BIS parameters.. Ok, ok , I believe you I think the sources of my problem to can't play online are FlashFX scripts...if not , I really don't know... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pappy Boyington 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Hmmm, I seem to be able to play Y2K3 online fine... this surprises me too.. althou i must admit i myself have played on non-Y2K3 servers with Y2K3 and when my game is being nice to me.. i could play without ANY problems offtopic: @SPQR  i could reccomend a good proctologist to aide you in getting that pole removed from your ass  edit: i agree with tbird, its most likly the ffx scripts. ECP has a nasty habit of doing that as well on most occasions (and no im not picking on ECP again, i remember back when it was released they had alot of problems with ECP and non-ECP based servers) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Quote[/b] ]@SPQR i could reccomend a good proctologist to aide you in getting that pole removed from your ass I thank Pappy Boyinghton for having been explained that the problem of the CTD is due to FlashFX scripts and not to my competences, Therefore, I will carry out the replacement by basing me on the config GMR 1.49 which it doesn't present any bug online Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pappy Boyington 0 Posted January 20, 2005 you would still have the "bouncing tanks" bug due to center of model... but that usualy isnt that big a deal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted January 20, 2005 1. Pappy stay out of it, you have enough antagonism to worry about that you've invited onto yourself in the past. Seeing as you're trying to get rid of a warning level flamebaiting someone is not the right way to go about it. 2. Thunderbird if you use something made by someone else you should ask permission first, basic fundamental courtesy. 2. SPQR if you have a point to make then make it politely and simply, I am tired of repeating myself regarding the cessation of dragging in crap from other forums. No matter how valid you may feel your opinion of him is based on another forum it has no relevance in this forum, on these forums people are judged by their behaviour here.

Bobcatt666 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Have to mention the BAS CH47 is a special built bird for the 106 SOAR aviation BTN to support Rangers btns and other special operations elements IE Delta Force Special forces Seals., and was only brought into operation in the 90s, they used a different model that is the predicessor to the BAS's shithook. That was more a flying control center than a transport bird. They were still using Blackhawks, Broncos, Chinooks, C130, C141s, and hueys . The Huey was still mainstay of the Army rotory fleet in 85, the UH60 model A in 85 had design issues and nicknamed Crashhawk. Unlike the huey which was brought into durring war time and got the bugs worked out a lot quickly. And 20 years in service time, it was under powered and often over loaded. The Blackhawk mostly in small numbers for the first out units like 101st, who become air assualt as they got reslotted from Airborne when more choppers became aviable, the 82nd Airborne, Most of the Ranger units, also, got them for rappid deployment. slowly the blackhawks were getting issued, then in 93 - 97 the UH1 had a gear vibration problem that grounded most of the chopper fleet. Thus forcing the Blackhawks production to be spead up so the Aarmy would still have aviation assets, due to there were still a lot of units still operating UH1Ds and H models. Think its funny how they moan the UH1 was such a death trap, yet our local chopper btn hasn't lost one in 20 years, first year getting UH60Bs lose two in a single day. But crash one Osprey and they get grounded? ;) Well that day four choppers were lost to be honest. The big bitch about the Osprey was between the military and civil air personal that operate the airpark out there. There are a few hueys to choose from now at least, Selectthis' at least is a stand alone unit, even if its the wrong color. The M601A1 was still in use back them with the Marines and stayed in till the 2000, Oddly the M48 was also in the Natinal Guard up to 92 when replaced by the M60 when active army got the M1 with the 105mm gun. Only two models of the hummve then the 4door fastback, M998, and the troop carrier to replace the old W300 Dodge power wagon M880A1, M151 1/4 ton and M741 series Jeep and as well as the Gamma Goat. They evetyally made a Ambuance body that fit the humvee and got rid of the M880 serise ambulance as well. and brought in the GMC tatical trucks so everything run deisel fuel. Humvvees were ok but kinda only good for fiedl service duty running on roads and being unides in urban areas was much to be desired in humvees as they were too wide for narrow streets. gotta give vehicle drivers M3a1 45cal. ACP grease guns, these were issued to drivers and medics up to the first gulfwar, often armored vehicle drivers and other tight quarters equipment operators. I think its funny the M1 tank usualy only had one M1A1s for the loader the driver had a M3A1, and all had M1911s or M92Fs. If you dismounted the tank the loader dismounted the loaders MG the gunner got the M16A2, and the TC just kept his pistol Or another M3A1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted January 20, 2005 Your infos're very invaluable, Thanks , however I don't know if there is a M3A1 some share of rather good quality to replace M16 of the members of crew, I won't replace the CH47 by that of BAS , but by another which I had discovered a few days ago on ofp gamezone, concerning the uh 60, Is it a good idea to replace it by that of BAS?

Totala 0 Posted January 20, 2005 @SPQR> Thunderbird84 might be wrong in willing to use Bobmoran's data without permission, however it does NOT allow you to use such a rude language within this thread. What you wrote is unfortunately a shame for the French OFP community I wish Moderators could fix this as soon as possible ... without locking this topic, please.

seminara 4 Posted January 20, 2005 Hi Thundebird - I've installed your files as a MOD but I crash to grey screen and have to reboot when attempting to run them. I seem to have narrowed the problem down to 2 pbo files: JAM_Sounds and JAM_Magazines It seems to run without them but probably not ideal as other PBO's rely on them. Is this a known bug? Do you have any suggestions? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted January 20, 2005 Totala both sides have been given a final warning to leave their baggage outside the forums. seminara are you using -nomap? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seminara 4 Posted January 20, 2005 seminara are you using -nomap? Yep, my shortcut looks like this: -mod=FlashFX -nosplash -nomap Actually, it's only JAM_Magazines that causes the hang. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QBA69 1 Posted January 20, 2005 Actually, it's only JAM_Magazines that causes the hang. The problem with this JAM_Magazines.pbo file can be caused by two different JAM2.zip files. I got JAM2.zip and OFPR_Addon_BAS_JAM2.zip on my disk and they have the same size but they ain't the same. So I'd suggest you to install OFPR_Addon_BAS_JAM2.zip and replace the existing files. Then you'll see if this specific file caused your problems. Kind regards, voodzia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seminara 4 Posted January 20, 2005 Hi Voodzia, I deleted every existing version in my Addons and my Res/Addons folders and am just running the  'OFPR_Addon_BAS_JAM2.zip' files in my FlashFX mod folder (which I downloaded from the Avon Lady) The 'only' other existing versions are in my Y2K3 Mod folder which are identical to these .pbo files (I know because I'd copied over them with the new files). As far as I know, a running mod won't see addons in other mod addon folders unless you direct it to it... correct? Well, I'm about to give up on this I'm sorry to say because I've spent the equivalent of a day trying to sort this out without any luck.  I think I'll just stick with Y2K3 for the time being.
