Warfare = Airport

[KrilionGD 0]

Ok, I have spent most of the night pouring over the Warfare missions that came with the game, included dePBO'ing Warfare2 pbo..

As far as I can tell there is not a single Airport in the warfare maps..

In ARMA-I you could place one by dropping a "WarefareBAirport" building and having it run the \scripts\server\Server_UpdateAirport.sqs

the update_airport and client action_airport scripts are in the warfare2 pbo..

But nothing happens at my "WarfareBAirport" building...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!.. I am at a complete loss at this point..

What's the point of "Warfare" with out fixed wing aircraft.. Choppers are great and all.. but planes would be really nice...

Many thanks for any assistance...

What I would like is for the Air fields that are scattered around the map to be capturable. That way fixed wing craft would be a resource to fight over in-game. Is there any way to set this up?

In Theory YES, the WarfareBAiport building is capturable by either side. It was in OFP/Arma-I.. That's what the Server-UpdateAirport script in WAR/CTI does is determine who holds/owns the airstrip factory...

That sounds like a pretty integral component of Warfare mode. I mean, it doesn't break the game mode by any means, but it's weird that it got left out.

I'm going to try and come up with a work around for this over the weekend, even if I just have to edit the superpowers mission and plunk empty, respawning planes down on the map. That won't be nearly as cool though since money won't come into play.

No one in the "know" has any suggestions?

I thought sure one of these super geniuses here would know this <chuckle>

Also on another note about Warfare. Anyone know how to get around "Unserialized Object" if say you add the M113 to the heavy Factory script from the M113_Bis addon. It doesn't show up in the buy menu and the log gives the unserialized object msg..

Man, I guess I must ask the really hard questions...

No ideas at all?

So.. No one knows anything about either issue?

I thought there were rules against bumping threads?

I assume you've read the Warfare 1 - Editing Guide? I don't know if it's changed much between Warfare 1 and Superpowers or whatever it's called, but that's a start.

Personally I dislike Warfare and avoid it at all costs. So know nothing of editing it. :)

You might want to send [ASA]ODEN a PM. He's modified and released an ArmA2 version of Warfare and might have some ideas. He's active in answering questions here about it as well.

Yeah it has changed quite a bit.. and I had read that some time ago.. but thanks for the thought..

I had a look at it in my first confused steps trying to understand Warfare 2 but never got it to really work and as I prefer to have planes as support to my infantry mayhem I dropped the effort rather soon.

Ask Mike Melvin :D
