thank you. this is really useful reference.

while the other thread tells of many peoples favourites, this thread gives a more general overview on getting the best.

cheers

[Rhodite 3]

Ditto with the above

I have linked to this thread.

A really usefull idea for those people who are not OFP nerds but want the best from the game.

Good work

This topic should be pinned or something and updated from time to time as new stuff is released. People've been recently asking this question again and again.

[berghoff 11]

Yes, this is indeed quite handy for new people or who have been away for a while from OFP.

[gandalf the white 0]

after five "AI" topics I think this needs a bump .

Mods, please take into consideration that pinning this thread would help starting members.. or returning members.

update:

changed the VME listing

added Y2K3 7.1 patch

[Bordoy 0]

I had to get a new OFP game because my last CD broke and so I lost all add-ons etc.

I am looking for one which adds the realistics effects for exploded viechles and smoke for other things like helicopter rotors causig mud and sand to blow up.

[Pappy Boyington 0]

depends on what era you like best.

if you like 1985 then FFUR. if u like more modern stuff then Y2K3

[gandalf the white 0]

and if you just want effects ECP will suffice

or maybe have mod folders and have em all

[wheres my rabbit ? 10]

or maybe have mod folders and have em all

you cant have em all cos there all cfg mod's

i still say goldmembers realistic explosion mod should be in the list (if a download to the last version can be found )

Oh, why not, can't i use mod folders?

I used to have FDF and CSLA II.

He means you can't run them all at once

FFuR and Y2K3 etc always install into Mod folders, as do almost all large mods.

One thing, FFuR replaces files in Worlds/ folder

And, I'm almost certain, when you run the uninstaller (I didn't, Gand did, ask him ), it removes anything it installed.. Inlcuding the 5 OFP-y islands...

I normaly use Y2K3 (With squad), I tried FFuR, it was okay, but I prefered Y2K3 (Included more addons, so nice for making missions)

I'll try the new ECP when it comes out though, hopefully it'll be incorporated into the new total-conversion patches, though *Hint hint*

you can use the units together, but only the config of the modfolder will be used that you place last in your shortcut

e.g.

D:\games\OperationFlashpoint\FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE -nosplash -nomap -mod=res;@org;@hsky3;@test4;@jam;@bas;@tonal;@mapfact;@map;@upd;@locke

in this case the config from the @locke/bin folder will be used, if the other folders contain a config in the bin folder the config will not be used/read

I hope that it doesn't, only because it either runs nicely alongside mods in a seperate mod folder, or is completely incompatible due to the mods own specialist effects (such as FlashFX or the FDF effects). Keeping it seperate just gives that option to keep it optional, thats all.

Edit -

, ahh so thats how it decides - cheers honchoblack

I've looked on the website and it looks nice. Just wanna ask, is it possible to play CWC and resistance camaigns with new units, and the single missions aswell?

[Daniel 0]

This thread is gonna be sooo usefull when I get OFP again. Can't belive I formatted.

[SFWanabe 0]

You want more unit replacement configs? You gotta wait until I'm done.

that was the entire point of a "unit replacment"

if u wanted a pretty new game you get SEB or FDF....

you want to play the old game and old missions with the new stuff.. then you want a unit replacment.

*|waves hand to do jedi mind trick|* and you want the Y2K3 Mod
