The BWMod does not provide support for this addon! FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! THIS ADDON IS NOT FINISHED AND CANNOT BE FINISHED BECAUSE OF ENGINE LIMITATIONS OF OFP! CONSIDER IT AN ALPHA VERSION! THIS README IS NOT FINISHED AND POSSIBLY NOT UP TO DATE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.

THIS SOFTWARE IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. REQUIREMENTS This addon requires: - Operation Flashpoint Resistance 1.96 - BWMOD basic pack: http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=9241 - CoC UA 1.1: http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=10176 (Links are into the english section of OFP.info) Recommended: - Use a Mod that has a better compass (using Mils) and better binocular optics than vanilla OFP -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. INSTALL The prefered method to install and manage addons is to organize them in so called Mod- directories. Make yourself comfortable with MOD-directories here: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Modfolders For beginners: Copy the files scfbw_m113.pbo, scfbw_mars.pbo, scfbw_m109.pbo, scfbw_misc and scfbw_ua to your RES\ADDONS-directory in the Operation Flashpoint Directory. C:\Program Files\Operation Flashpoint\Res\Addons\ If you don't have the BWMod basic pack yet, please install it into the same directory, as this addon. 3.1 STRONGLY RECOMMENDED If you want to use this addon with the CoC Unified Artillery Addon, please download and install it. The CoC Unified Artillery provides a generic interface GUI and scripting interface for artillery addons. As for now, the artillery interface for the non-COC units is not finished, and probably won't ever be. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.

-ZG-BUZZARD 0 Posted February 28, 2007 Way to go vektorbosom! They look great! Though I would have preferred, since they are not part of BWMod, that they could be completely independent of BWMod stuff (not needing any basic pack, like the first independent release of the Wiesel). Will definitely give them a try when I get home! P.S.: Which is this vehicle in this picture? http://home.arcor.de/vektorboson/img/20060910_03.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hellfish6 7 Posted February 28, 2007 ([ZG said: BUZZARD @ Feb. 28 2007,08:41)]Though I would have preferred, since they are not part of BWMod, that they could be completely independent of BWMod stuff (not needing any basic pack, like the first independent release of the Wiesel) I'm sorry, that doesn't make any sense to me. Why would you want German addons with American crews or to be unintegrated into the existing German addons? Stuff looks great, guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
