Exporting OFP island to ArmA

[-martin- 10]

Hi,

I'm trying to export an island in to arma, I read some tutorials but I cant understand them properly. At the moment I'm trying to export the Desert island from OFP to arma but every time I load it the game crashes (I use arma 1.05)

Can someone please explain to me how to export an island from OFP to ArmA :rolleyes:

What tutorials have you read?

[-martin- 10]

Many Tutorials, PCM tutorial, I even downloaded the SLX desert island but it crashes too.

One of the tutorials I read, cant remember which one says that ArmA version 1.05 and higher can read OFP .wrp's wthout any modifications. Anyway I also have the CWC Everon in ArmA and it works perfectly fine with my verison 1,05 yet desert island crashes.

I wa sowndering how they exported everon to ArmA so that I can do the same for my island when I finish the OFP version.

as far as i know all arma with all arma versions you can load the ofp wrp file format.

do you have some errors in the arma.rpt or an error message ?

Well when I select the island and it begins to load it just crashes to the desktop, I use windows vista so it just shows a window saying "This program has stopped working" and then gives me an option to close it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong in the config?

Martin we can help you convert your OFP island to A1 and A2.

Basically you need to look into the tool called Roller.

It can create you a xyz and object data export.

You import this again into v3 and you are almost set.

Hi guys don't mean to hijack thread but

I'm no modder by any means

But there's this OFP island that I would like to have in arma, is a very small island

Horseshoe Shaped, featuring a small base in the north and a small town in the south in between those two places there are roads, hills and woods

the name is:

Kolim Island

kolim.pbo 1.3

is there any chance of someone converting it?

It is more a nostalgia thing, see this island had it all, but very small and cpu friendly, it was the time were I served coops for me and my mates, that didn't have powerful pc's
