Tonal Special Forces

Recommended Posts

Indeed, a fantastic addon to go with a great island. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this for all of your hard work. I especially like the new TSF (although I kinda miss the old camo for the desert guys)

Thanks again for the great addons!

lol @ taking out a convoy with a PK armed Allouette  tounge2.gif

I managed to take out the escorting armed Landies' gunners, but then someone else just hopped in and took over, taking me down in no time (sheesh, so much perspex and so little metal around you in that chopper lol ). Tough mission, which makes it good  thumbs-up.gif

you can win that mission.

I won it by hovering low and waiting for the convoy to hit the straight section of road, poped up in fornt of them fired a few to get them to bunch up, then flew over and dropped the fab, then mopped up. The vehicles all have lots of dammage already, and the gunners low ammo, so you can win it.

I didn't know it had a FAB whistle.gif

THis changes things pistols.gif

Great Pack, love the new animations wink_o.gif

you can use anything I did to upgrade the original work visually if you want to. Animations, unit models, etc. You can edit "them" all you want and I can send mlods if needed. All I did was replace the unit models and faces and redid some anims. Rom consolidated the scripting and edited the config. I can send you or whomever all the source files.

Sorry, blame the beta testers...

Beta testers have the easiest job in the world and they still suck at it. banghead.gif

Maybe you should find some who are horrible pilots, that should prevent a bug like this one going unnoticed again.

i must say i tested the puma with a lot of differnt units and got no missing textures so it must of been a problem on your side, and we do try our hardest u knw. smile_o.gif

still time for me to download the update, been away working day/night at work, now at least they give me a few days off.. [hates working 2 days and nights in a row without going home, mm money]

Exactly, a missing texture isn't going to be missing if it's contained in another one of those addons, which I'm not going to necessarily have, hence why addons need to also be tested by themselves to ensure they work properly independently. Just because an addon doesn't give you an error message doesn't mean it requires (wether intentional or not) another addon, and the only way to be sure is to run the game with nothing other than the addon(s) in question and the original content, which we can only assume is the same for everyone.

Looks great but is there any other links to the patch since the server doesnt like filefront and the yousendit has ran out.

If there is another link i can set up some mirrors.

this all has diddly squat to do with this thread anymore. The problem, minor as it was, has been fixed and WW3 was averted (at least outside of this thread that is)

KS, perhaps you should write the bible of how to test addons properly.... We were obviously not quite at your level, even with our rather hectic time scale.

and it wasn't a missing texture to begin with, it was a line in the config that swapped out dammage textures that wasn't removed on one of the helos. Since I only tested the helos as the pilot and never shot them I missed that one line. Not a big deal. It's only an addon.

edit: plus it was fixed right away.

I know, but if he were theoretically running the original puma addon, or if by some other way the texture that was supposed to swapped in was still valid, it would go unnoticed. He suggested it was a problem on my side and I was trying to show why he might have missed it. And if I seem angry at the beta testers it's only because RHS's hadn't exactly done the best of jobs recently. whistle.gif

Anyway the point is Ebud acknowledged it as a mistake on his behalf and it wasn't just a problem on my side, and I guess I proved the wrong point (I had always gotten bad grades on my school papers). banghead.gif

Glad that you fixed it though, I know what it's like having to fix bugs only minutes after release.

EDIT: "Good" beta testers as in people who actually do help out are a bit different than the 14 year olds that mods tend to hire to play with addons and then wonder why nothing got tested.

Id like to see what a lot of popular mods would look like without "proper" beta testing....buggy as hell.

beta testers are the small group but great group of individuals who without them, loads of addon wouldn't have made it as released items, well without maybe loads of bugs

Use your imagination, tactical run is restricted fo Special Forces. Dont expect regular militia men to run like that. They dont have such training.
