VBS1 and OFP

[b_ringer25 0]

this is hard for me to ask but,

Is VBS1 has the same stuff as OFP, hmm that doesn't look like it came out right. The addons for vbs1... are they .pbo like ofp, and if so, if i bought TP3 or any of them, would it work for OFP? (Probably Not) Just asking.

No, and soon Placebo is going to lock this topic and say that you have to post in a VBS1 forum

Heh, im psychic!  

EDIT: but seriously, it wouldnt work, because then there would be no point in selling/buying VBS1...

You should wait for ARMA and buy it instead of TP3.

I don`t think that TP3 can be used with OFP.

IF you own a full copy of OFP and VBS AND the OFP mod makers have expressly approved, there are unapproved and unsupported methods documented for how to add the OFP content in as Mod folders to your VBS1 installation, detailed in the registered members section of VBS Resources. (meriting a useless thread lock here)

Attempting to port stuff back to OFP is a rather pointless exercise for several reasons. The critical content such as models and configs and maps are always encrypted, and that functionality is not in OFP.

Secondly, the advanced functionality is based off of hundreds of changes and updates to the engine in commands, scripting, and configs. Nearly all of these can not be emulated without modifying the original engine source code.

If the technical reasons still don't phase you, then the legal prohibitions won't either, in which case you haven't learned the lessons of past locked discussions on these forums about the abuse/misuse of community contributions, and this useless thread will merit a lock for flamebaiting or warez.
