nicolq craig 0 Posted September 27, 2005 I am trying to creat mission and I ran into an Object Count error ( Only 63 object per side). I have HP P4 3gz, 2gbt ram, 128 vid. How do I increase my object count I do have the ram? Will there be increases in Object count in future OFP game releases? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakerod 254 Posted September 27, 2005 63 object per side refers to a group limitation I think. Meaning that you have too many groups on one side (West, or East or Resistance or Civilian) and you must reduce this count. Everyone has this problem no matter what the machine. Its possible that you are having a different problem but I don't believe so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
korax 4 Posted September 27, 2005 Group your soldiers together and that will free up some room for more, also you posted this in the wrong section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macguba 0 Posted September 27, 2005 Jakerod is right, this is a game engine limitation. It's nothing to do with your computer. 63 groups is plenty though. If you do run out, make Resistance friendly to one side or the other and reinvent the plot to take account of their presence. Note that armed civilians will shoot at whoever the Resistance is not friendly to, although the enemy will not shoot back. There is also a limit on the number of soldiers in a group - 12. With even three sides (ignoring the civilians) thats 63 x 12 x 3 = more loons than your or anybody else's computer can cope with Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commando84 0 Posted September 27, 2005 trust Macguba on that 63 Loons makes missions unplayable usually. To much lag and to hard to aim... been there done that got flamed by my friends for some of my earlier and some few last year creations where i wanted to get big time , there is a addon that increases number of groups to much more if you really really want to have more than 63 groups you can find it on www.mapfact.net and its called groups addon.

That way you have additional groups of East units who will attack the West (you can set side via editing the mission.sqm, but I'm not 100% on how to do this)...
