Cpt_Robertson 1 Posted February 28, 2002 Sorry, I'd posted this on the older forum without realising you had moved. ------------------------------------------------------- Hi there. Our squad has been playing online for quite some time, mostly as part of the same squad in-game, but recently we tried training against each other in squad vs squad games - i.e. one human player commanding a squad consisting of 4 to 9 AI bots each. Whilst playing a game online one night we noticed that one of our regular players 'Hammy' wasn't able to issue orders to his squad. No-one else seemed to suffer from this problem, so we thought he might have installed the game incorrectly or messed his key commands up, so we got him to uninstall and reinstall Operation Flashpoint and patch it back up to 1.42 again from scratch. Sadly this didn't help and he still can't seem to issue orders to his squad (even when he's hosting the game himself), despite all the help and suggestions we've tried to give him. From what he's told us, although the other squad members will follow him around and keep the default wedge formation, when he selects orders for them they just don't appear as text on the screen either. Again, he's the only one out of the 6 players that play regularly with us online that's got this problem and we've tried almost everything we can think of to help him fix this, but to no avail. Can anyone here help us with this problem, or does anyone else suffer from the same bug of not being able to issue orders to your squad when playing online? His machine is a fairly new one running under Windows 98 with a lot more RAM and CPU power than the rest of us have, so it's not a question of his machine being below the minimum specs. Any help at all will be greatly appreciated, otherwise poor old Hammy will be stuck having to play online with us as a basic squaddie only. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cpt_Robertson 1 Posted March 3, 2002 This problem is still an issue for Hammy. Has anyone else had this problem occur or knows someone who has, as all information would be helpful, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
