Unetwork 0 Posted January 14, 2002 A few days ago I installed between the lines over version 4 of OFP. Ijust can't start it and the game stops responding as soon as I click on these extra missions. What can I do? Please help! :proost: :bav: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theavonlady 2 Posted January 14, 2002 Between the Lines is a campaign. Did you copy the PBO file into the CAMPAIGNS folder or did you place it in the MISSISONS folder by mistake? You say your computer stops responding at all? After you click on a mission, does your hard disk's LED light show disk activity? Depending on your system configuration and the complexity of the mission being loaded, this may tale more time than you might expect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ALDEGA 0 Posted January 14, 2002 btw, Between the lines is an unofficial (crappy) addon campaign. So you should ask the creators of that thing for help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unetwork 0 Posted January 15, 2002 Ok thanks, but again I did not ask if you like between the lines yes or no. And I think this forum is for fans too open? So should I re-direct all questions to officialy mission mods? Thanks to those who really tried to help me and here is how the trouble started. The CD-R came with auto win installer and has put 3 pbo's under missions BTL 1, 2 and 3 in the same dir. are 1985 and red hammer. So if I open up the campaign inside the game there are on top arrows from 1985 to Red Hammer and from Red Hammer another arrow... as soon as I click on this the game stops and I have to restart. I have a Athlon XP 1900 with 1 Gig of DDR ram with a MSI KT266 PROII R MB so I think my hard is good enough. Again in advance thanks for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R. Gerschwarzenge 0 Posted January 15, 2002 Have you tried to manually copy the pbo files to the campaign directory? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unetwork 0 Posted January 15, 2002 Well the CD has a wininstaller so you can't see the files before the setup. If I use another dir to set it up I can see the 3 pbo's and the add, when I do this manualy also the same result... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ALDEGA 0 Posted January 15, 2002 KT266 is a VIA chipset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unetwork 0 Posted January 16, 2002 Yes it is, with raid onboard avery good motherboard which I am using for offline video editing here are some spec.: VIA® KT266A (552BGA) Chipset - FSB @200/266MHz - AGP 4X and PCI Advanced high performance memory controller VIA® VT8233 (376BGA) Chipset - High Bandwidth V-link Client controller - Integrated Faster Ethernet LPC - Integrated Hardware Sound Blaster/Direct Sound AC97 audio - Ultra DMA 33/66/100 master mode PCI EIDE controller - ACPI But should this make trouble with BTL?

It can cause data corruption when copying large files to your hard disk. I don't know what size the BTL PBOs are but problems do occur when installing some of OFP's large files on VIA based machines. Search The FAQ for "via chipset". In addition, I don't know whether it's related or not but I saw at XMP's site that there is a patch for BTL, in case you weren't aware.
