UKPUSHER 0 Posted November 17, 2001 Ok i had the laser workin fine .........i could see the red dot and my bombs were dead on target.........i came to my map today got out the laser designator targeted a tank but i see no red dot now and it boots me back to desktop no error message .... i cant understand because i havent installed any unofficial addons or changed any of my settings its just my laser blackop  all of a sudden this problem has come from nowhere.........ive reinstalled 3 times [correctly] by using the right order of patches 1.20 then 1.30  WHAT THE #### IS GOIN ON this is a pic what i took before this myserious bug got me    as u can see my red dot was working[btw it looks bright cos i altered it for easier viewing] (Edited by UKPUSHER at 7:39 pm on Nov. 17, 2001) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unl33t 0 Posted November 17, 2001 Or actualy.... Because you have uninstalled 3 times it might be the patch you downloaded..... re download see if it still happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UKPUSHER 0 Posted November 17, 2001 aagggggggh i just redownloaded both patches .........applied them succesully but still when i left click on a target with the designator i can count to 3 then boom back to destop..........also my kiowa laser is also doin the same thing now yesterday i thought it was this ......i downloaded devils unofficial breaching charge [which also uses the day blackop] and i was convinced that his blackop had overwrote my laser blackops code [or whatever] so i deleted the addon but i still have this problem thats what brought me to reinstalling again im back to square one and i want my f&%ing laser dot back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KoRnboy 0 Posted November 17, 2001 Any of you try a FULL reinstall? Uninstall OFP then delete EVERYTHING from the dir, install OFP and get everything again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TopCover 0 Posted November 19, 2001 Whoa! Hold! Stop! RED DOT? Without going into details with explaining my whole procedure install/uninstall/reinstall, i went from 1.20 to 1.30, and NEVER had any reddot in the laser sight, just the white diamond designator icon. Naturally, they LGBs, Hellfires and all the other taxpayers missiles are on a random killing spree, killing all sorts of local Malden, Everon and Kolgujev plant species.....very sad indeed.
