Y2K3 Version 7.3

[stisoas 0]

is there any way for play multiplayer like crCTI with y2K3 without crash ?

[Pappy Boyington 0]

try the Unit Replacment config.

effects and scripts cause MP crashs. cti is as sensative as virgin on prom night.. so the question is.. what DOESNT make cti crash lol. the unit replacment config should work for both but i dont know. i stick with SP personaly

Will there be a .rar file with the files cause the insatller doesn´t work seems to ba a single problem but i downloaded the whole thing three times and that is annoying.

[Pappy Boyington 0]

not unless someone makes it. uploading an RAR file with the nessacary addons and files will be around 700 megs and u saw the prohblems i had with 600.

what kind of problems are you having?

if worse comes to worse, althou i highly suggest agasint this.. find on ofp.info the 7.0 installer.. install that. then use the patch 7.0 to 7.1 patch

Downloaded and tried the new 7.1 full version of your mod and i loved it

but i discovered one tiny tiny bug that i don't know what to do about i like firefights... and i place 'em jam hd groups or just bis plain groups in the editor and now i discovered that the jam hd group east officer wasn't custom!

all the soldiers where custom but the officer was still original old school bis style is there any quick fix or do i have to wait for next version of Y2K3?

Ok i got it to work now

Hmm i had downloaded the patch the first time and not the full install as i thaught i did...(yeah yeah i know im stupid)

btw, Awsome work pappy!

My Problem is when the installer begins copying the data, it stops and a Windows Error occurs. I will download then 7.0 and patch it.

Yeah, I noticed this too, when I tested a little replacement config of my own. This has to do with the JAM soldiers' own config. Most of the JAM units are set to inherit everything from the units in the basic config. However, the east officer is set to inherit from the JAM soldier, and only has his model given as the BIS defalult one. That means the officer model is not set to inherit from the default config, but it is set to be the original old bis style model.

The only way to change this is to modify the JAM config, I'm afraid. It's not hard to do it yourself, but maybe the creators of JAM could keep it in mind when they write the upcoming JAM3...

I hope this isn't all too confusing...

basicly what he is saying is: unpbo the jam addon. open up the config.cpp. find the soldiereofficer (or something like that) and delete the line that says model= and that will inheirt the Y2K3 one. repbo and ur set

OK Pappy, I'm still getting the .P3d error on the grenade launcher, afterthe patch.

So, if you'd be so kind, please direct me to the addon I need. I believe it was a WGL addon, or some such?

[FerretFangs 0]

OK so I guess that's from the Wargames addon pack.... Geez that's a hefty bastard. Is there anything else in that pack that's worth the download?

[Pappy Boyington 0]

no no no no...

i used a WGL p3d file.. but its not in a wgl file...

download the Y2K3 full installer. not the patch. i told you that via pm. you neeed my custom INQ weapon pack that is ONLY found in the full installer

this thing looks interesting, i'll try it, but why EXE?

i hate EXE "installers", why not RAR, or ZIP? anything but EXE.

(please, ignore this stupid and worthless message, i wrote it only because my whole body wants to scream "no more EXEEEEE")

[FerretFangs 0]

Yeah, thanks Pappy, you were right. That fixed it.

well.. becuz i have 600 + megabytes of files that need to be installed into a certian directory in a preceise order, and if they are not then it wont work and id spend the rest of my natural life trying to explain to a few hundred people how to install a mod.

the exe also creates a shortcut icon.. and it does NOT leve any registery files. which means theres no "uninstall" cloging up your add/remove programs unlike earlier shitty installers which did

[Baz 0]

i'm missing the icon file for Y2K3... Could somebody send it to me at shernt25@hotmail.com, thx

[Pappy Boyington 0]

its in your Y2K3\ mod folder... just go to folder options and show hidden objects

Pappy, if I remove the configurations from the PBOs in this mod(the ones that replace the CWC addons, not the others), they will still work, won't they? so I'll only have half of units in the mission editor?

As it is now, the BIS units replaced by addons are available in the editor, so removing the configurations in the PBOs should just live the names of the units replaced and not the ones replacing them too?

I don't know if that makes sense, lol.

Regards.

Okay, I got a new one.... when I attempt to add some of the other BAS helo's, like the Little Bird, and the MH-60K, I get a CTD. I know it's related to the crew, because I can place an empty model in the editor.

[Pappy Boyington 0]

@creo: yes that should work.. except for the M1A2 cuz i used everything. the ammo and all that.

its a trial and error process.

ferret: i dont know what to tell you there

[FerretFangs 0]

I think I got the same problem with the HTTV.

[@cero 0]

Thanks Pappy, I'll try that.

Regards.

@CERO.

[FerretFangs 0]

OK, it IS the HTTV, not the MH-60K. The Little Birds also are scrogged for some reason. The error with the HTTV's causes a CTD, and is related to HYK USSol crew. The error I get on the Little birds is a P3d error with the BAS SOAR crew. It doesn't CTD, but won't load the mission.

[Pappy Boyington 0]

aw shit yea i know why the httv is like that.. cuz i got sick of needing the entire USMC pack just so the HTTV wouldnt give u a missng addon error.. then it turns out i needed the entire pack for other reasons anyway and never changed it back. regaurding the soar crew.. umm my only suggestion is mabe try downloading the BAS soar pilots and check thier size with the ones in Y2K3.. if they are differnt then overwrite them. or.. back up the Y2K3 ones and put those in place of them
