DOH! Stupid install...

Recommended Posts

I had deleted all of the SP and MP missions that I did not play, so I dind't have to scroll through them to find the ones I do play. Well when I installed the v1.42 patch today, it wouldn't let me becase those missions were missing, so it was a re-install for me.

I don't recall any of the other patches doing this, I believe I had removed those missions prior to installing v1.40

yup...same here...looks like I get to reinstall OFP on my dedicated server tomorrow...thats just plain goofy...our dedicated server runs CTF missions only...now I have to make sure that all the damn paintball missions and shit are in there so I can update...someone had their head up their ass on this one.

Any idea if its going to cause problems if I delete the missions I dont use after Im done with the install???

I think that started with the first patch that included the version checker thingy, it annoyed me as well because I deleted the SP missions a long time ago, the way I solve this is I have the SP missions in opf/temp then when I'm about to install a new patch I simply copy them over and delete them when the patch is installed smile.gif

Thats what I did now.  I just renamed the missions folder to "Original Missions" and made a new empty one.

I REALLY WISH BIS WOULD GIVE US FOLDER SUPPORT IN THE MISSIONS DIRECTORY.   wink.gif  wink.gif  wink.gif

In regard to copying the original missions from the CD...you cant do that...didnt work...patch 1.3 must have altered them and added some new ones...so it was a no-go. This is the first patch I had trouble with in relation to not having the original missions in the MP folder. 1.3 and 1.4 went in fine without the missions being present for me.
