Bordoy 0 Posted June 15, 2005 No it won't overwrite any official file of BIS, it would replace everything but won't overwrite anything Best Regards Thunderbird84 That doesn't make much sense. So they are put in a 'mod' folder? I can still play original if i want to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mav1985 0 Posted June 15, 2005 Does this stil replace/delete/modify/edit files in the WORLDS folder of OFP? dont panic. of course it replaces because it is a replacement pack but as said it wont overwrite... it will just not use de BIS files so you can play the original game of course! but after four years i would say that FXUR is a "must" for everyone!

breaker44 0 Posted June 15, 2005 Couplea questions for the thunderbird, but first, congrats. i was JUST able to download the original, and, let me say, it is brilliant. Its the '05 mustang of the OFP world. Ok, onto the questions. -Why does it seem that the mod is missing a few pieces? I get error messages that prevent me from watching intro/outro videos, and that slow loading processes to a crawl. I have downloaded the patch, but it still seems t do this. -Also, the game lags HORRIBLY from time to time, even if there is only one unit on the map! What's the problem, and is there a way to fix it? Again, great job. -Breaker Out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pandalefou 0 Posted June 15, 2005 yeah yeah but the upcoming version will be bug free (100 %) and will be really really optimized ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again, great job. -Breaker Out we are woking on reducing lag, though you need to choose the rigth config for your pc specs error messages where caused to files of the dta folder i think, or because you might have one of the addons used in your addons or res\addons folder the one with the dta folder should be fixed by providing the extra installer, the other both problems are up to you to change but i am sure you'll be satisfied with version 5.0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted June 16, 2005 Hi mates, The FFUR v5.0 would be intended TO ALL COMPUTERS because there will be several configs , please people make your choice now in the goal to avoid hesitating while the installation So there would be : Quote[/b] ]Multi Config : 80 % of units have been replaced , there are few effects only, this config is intended to people who play MAINLY online though. Quote[/b] ]Low Single Config : All units have been replaced , this config countains 30 % less effects than powerful configs, it's intended to computers lower than 1.6 ghz. & Powerful Single Configs: I hope that the majority of you would be able to play using the powerful configs because they coutain and use ALL EFFECTS and SCRIPTS , They are intended to computers higher than 2.0 ghz, so there would be : Quote[/b] ]Powerful Configs FULL which will countain :Powerful Single Classical FULL SCRIPTS AND EFFECTS : this config would use ALL EFFECTS AND SCRIPTS EXCEPT BODY EXPLOSION ONE Powerful Single with Body Explosion FULL SCRIPTS AND EFFECTS : this config would use ALL EFFECTS AND SCRIPTS. Quote[/b] ]And for people who won't like soldiers talking and surrendering , they'll have the choice too...POWERFUL CONFIGS WITHOUT SOLDIERS TALKING AND SURRENDERING will coutain : classical FULL SCRIPTS AND EFFECTS without soldiers talking and surrendering : this config would use ALL EFFECTS AND SCRIPTS EXCEPT BODY EXPLOSION,AND SOLDIERS TALKING AND SURRENDERING. Body Explosion FULL SCRIPTS AND EFFECTS without soldiers talking and surrendering : this config would use ALL EFFECTS AND SCRIPTS EXCEPT SOLDIERS TALKING AND SURRENDERING.

Cannon Fodder 0 Posted June 16, 2005 Very nice that you've given us the choice between what could be very contentious 'improvements' for some people. I know of a fair few people who would dislike the talking soldiers, now there's no excuse for not downloading it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pappy Boyington 0 Posted June 16, 2005 yeah yeah but the upcoming version will be bug free (100 %) and will be really really optimized ;) sorry i just had to comment on this... but you could work on an addon or mod for 20 years straight... and STILL not work out all the bugs. tb and all his testers can play every mission ever made for this game.... and not encounter a single problem... an hour after 5.0 is released he will have probably at least 2 replies that report bugs or problems. from the installer to gameplay. somewhere, somehow, something is foregoton, overlooked, or snuck by. but i garuentee you... there will be bugs in this mod, and every other mod, addon, and entire game released from now til the end of the apocolypse.

Thunderbird 0 Posted June 16, 2005 At least You can be sure that there won't be any : Missing P3D errors Any script errors Any cfg errors Any CTD problem and any other annoying message. we've spent a lot of time by testing several different missions in the goal to be sure that everything's ok. But you 'll have to respect this : Quote[/b] ]PLEASE check and make sure you don't have duplicates of any addons used by FFUR also in your regular or Res\addons folders!. Plus I can trust Tom' cuz he's so far one of the best beta tester I've ever seen , he RARELY misses a bug, once spotted then searched and killed One months spent on bugs hunting... We expect to try CAREFULLY the installer that Rev' will do, we'll try it again once online too though Thanks people for your support , less than 5 days before the release date Regards TB84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twisted 128 Posted June 17, 2005 i've been thinking about this for a while and would like to voice it. 1st i mean no disrespect and am 110% eagerly looking forward to the mod. and i mean seriously eager which may be why the next comment is made. but why is it in complete forum when it is not complete? it confused me when i first saw it. anyway... its a silly thing but it confuses me. of course people gonna ask for its release when its in this section. really looking forward to release. that is all. carry on....

rjjr 0 Posted June 17, 2005 funny that's the same thing ECP Just joking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted June 17, 2005 I don't see what do you have in mind , but FFUR is totally different than ECP , it has different effects , different era , different methods to introduce scripts... the only common thing that we have together is that we improve Operation Flashpoint If you mean that the release date is very long , I can confirm you that it would be released this weekend or at least at the beginning of the upcoming week Best Regards Thunderbird84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EvEnLeaSe44 0 Posted June 17, 2005 is that really true? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted June 17, 2005 Hi all , I just noticed that the FFUR multi config works online perfectly only on CTI , and not other game types , that's weird and it obliges me to carry out a new multi config basing myself only on BIS addons with adding some effects and replacing sounds. Btw the main stuff would be intended for single game though Best Regards Thunderbird84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird 0 Posted June 17, 2005 Update : Good news , there would be a multi config based on an infantry total replacement and firearms too. the source of the problem which happened seems to be the P3D of the used vehicles. (heavy armored / APC) Big thanks to Sanctuary for his advices Best Regards Thunderbird84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thunderbird 0 Posted June 17, 2005 Hi buds , I need 2 serious persons with a basic military knowledge for a good FINAL beta testing of the FFUR pack v5.0 because there are several configs and the main beta testers can't test them all Please contact me by pm Edit : Found , thanks all. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Best Regards Thunderbird84 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
