Flags?

Recommended Posts

Is there a flag pack addon? The only one I am aware of if Jerry's...and that always gives me an error.

Any reply would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dyne

Not sure. You could always create your own flags in paint or whatever program you choose. Save it as a 256x256 JPEG. Place the picture in your mission folder and in the flag's initialization put

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">this setFlagTexture "YourTexture.jpg"

BI Wiki - SetFlagTexture:

Quote[/b] ]This command works fine in multiplayer for Arma. You can even use your custom texture as long as it is in *.jpg format and has dimensions of 200px*200px

If you're going to include a flag in a mission file, please take the 10 seconds it takes to convert it into ArmA's native texture format (paa/pac).

Is there a link on how to convert it? I haven't done it in ages and lost the link I use to have. banghead.gif

The error that I am getting for the flag pack is telling me that I need version 1.02.

the flag pack is simply a pbo full of jpeg images. all tyou need to do is is put your jpeg in your mission file and then go into the editor and place any flag pole. then on the init line put

this setFlagTexture "Canada.jpg"

on whatever your flag name is
