    Those awful bugs with ofp multiplayer!

    I had so many problems playing with my wife over LAN with V1.90, The issue was very similar. No Lag on foot and very much over vehicles. I had to take a look over the avon lady´s faq to solve many issues with my Gf4 configuration (it helped very much). There is an issue too with the vehicles, because i´ve noticed that when you use some addons, the computer freezes. This specially happens with Sigma´s Tank packs. Be sure too to have addons compatible with v1.90 otherways vehicles freezes game. Anyway I agree with you that NEtwork comunication sometimes is too slow and this could be the difference between Live and death

    Commanding ai

    It´s a pitty but the runaways aren´t all acknowledged as runaways... I mean.... not all runaways in the islands are suitable to make a jet take off or land. for example in nogova the runaway in the north is useless for jets. In Marshalls, all runaways are pure shit and so on. There is a sense too in them, so you have to guess the sense of take of and landing. otherways it won´t work. To make pilots go and take off, you should give the plane a first waypoint in the begining of the runaway synchronized with a radio activation trigger. then, place another one in the end of the runaway at max speed, then you can place all waypoint you want. The result is when you call the plane from radio, they´ll take off and attack.

    Fox. this is jay...

    I only can answer you 1 question. The bridge will break , Sure! but needs to take heavy damage. It breaks with FFAR rockets, Bombs, Mines (really fun when a enemy tank gets there) and any other means... (Y crashlanded my Ah-64 and finished in the water because the bridge got wasted). For the other issue, try to create a radio activated trigger to displace your troops to a given waypoint.
  4. As I have tested, Rank is only usefull for defining the chain of combat and grouping. All you do is define a leader and sub-leaders so when one is killed in action, the next in the chain takes command of the group, but it doesn´t affect AI thoughness or behabiour. When you assign max AI for a vehicle, you are giving max AI to the crew, so that you will see (or usually you won´t see anything before being wasted) that MAx AI given vehicles move faster, shoot faster and are much more acurate, but at the end is due to crew skill. ( I did some tests about that) so if a max AI hind crew is downed they will be Max Skilled troopers so take care! or yuo will get a headshot Of course I may be wrong but this is what I´ve seen so if anybody has tested deeper than me please, I´m interested.
  5. Hi all. I´m editing a long desperate hamburger hill style coop mission and want to make it hard for my troops to take the hill. I´ve placed 3 levels of trench, barricades, Akm 74 posts, M-46, Zu-23 and lots of Ai troopers defending the position. But the issue comes when trying to make the Ka-50´s , Hinds and the Su-25 more effective, because when they run out of ammo (after erasing some square km and many brave soldiers) they are just as inofensive as seagulls. My question is... Is it possible to rearm them after they run out of ammo and then head them to the battle to rock us again? Thanks in advance

The stupid tank is an M113, which, after loading troops in a danger zone does not run away, so that some T72s blow it up into pieces. Any idea on how to solve that? Thanks<span id='postcolor'> have you synchronized waypoints of load and exit between the troops and the damn m113? because this could be the issue. M113 must be independent to soldiers group, so you must proceed this way: 1) place your soldiers where you want to be taken. there put them a waypoint "enter". 2) put the m113 far of this point and add him a waypoint near the waypoint of the soldiers of type "load" (sorry, my ofp is in spanish and don´t know what will be the exact word in english version). 3) synchronize this 2 waypoints. 4) add a waypoint to the m113 where you want to take the soldiers. Check that you give this waypoint maximum speed and cease fire, combat mode.(i think is this way) to avoid the m113 to unload the troop when a threat comes. 5) then you can unload the troop adding a waypoint to the m113 (unload) and another for the troops (exit). 6) Synchronize these two again. 7) then you may add more independent actions to both units. I´ve tested it and it works fine..... I´ve seen more scripts to make this repeat many times on http://www.ofp-spain.com.
  7. If you want static guns try to set up a battery of DKM M-46 fieldguns instead of tanks I was joking. Try to setup a trigger to keep your tanks away giving them a waypoint with the order cease fire. Then when they reach destiny, another activation triger wich will lead them to battle again. Seems silly but I´ve tested it in other situations when I want some units not to leave a perimeter

    Why so few resistance mp players?

    The best OFP session I´ve ever played, was a rare mixture: 2 from Spain 1 from England 1 from Germany 2 from Australia 1 from Japan 1 from Canada We had the best Coop fight, we grouped and made the game as fun as I think it was thougt by BIS. Lots of people killing each other and having fun with no "Languaje problems". ( again some USA people doesn´t seem to understand anything but USA english"). So in general I think that the greatest fun comes from mixture and Internet games are to play worlwide not to be "the one´s in the world". The only thing I don´t understand allready is why so many (not all of course) american people think that they are the only people in the word with rights to play over the net.... Does anyone know why?

    Fade, id numbers...

    The question is not IP, the question is CD key. Is phisically Impossible to have 2 equal IP addresses over a Lan because if you try it the OS will advise you and won´t allow you to use this IP (a message like "IP alreeady used" will raise). The same for Internet where Internet Nodes control All Existing IP´s to avoid this. So If you think you have the same IP Address as other computer in the net, you are true wrong. (It´s Impossible at all point) What you may have is the same virtual IP address. This is not he same real Ip addres. Real one is the one (or range one´s) wich has your Router or ISP´S Node.

    Problems with my mission.

    I did it in a very simple way. Before knowing anything about scripting, i managed this way. if your helo is set up as a unit, give it the waypoint "wait" and then take your soldiers into it. when you arrive the chopper is ready. then use a radio command event to take you and the troopers to whatever you want, and if you want to parachute before, just order your squad to be in a point in land. Everyone will bail out. Easy... isn´t it?

    Hi.

    Mission type

    If you want realism, you´d better join the army to be a hero, for now I like a more playable mission Mix heavy towards realism. Respawning is esential to keep the interest on the game because is so boring fly as a seagull while others are having fun. I don´t mean with this those Rambo-mode missions where you fire over animated "silly"targets. I like challenging missions where you can drive tanks and manage choppers and of course it takes hard to get the goal but it is possible. I don´t like those missions you have to walk for miles and stay on ground like a snake for 2 km. ( I think that´s the reason motorbikes were added)

As I see in your profile, you are from USA, so the reason is Ovbious. YOU are the international!. Correct me if I´m wrong... BIS is based on Europe (although you probably don´t know were we are) So would be better for you to think twice before using "International" as a despective synonim of "foreign". Because if you havn´t noticed yet, there are much more "International" than USA players. Regarding your "Stupid maps" apreciation. Again you seem not to think before talk. Those stupid maps are "standard" due to allow "anyone" to play without seeing the message "..unable to load mission" because you don´t have all the addons. It´s a shame but it´s reasonable. So please, don´t be so fast to write and think before posting.

    First two days on multiplayer

    You are saying to join a squad... but żwhen? Everytime I´ve tryed to find a server on Mp, it was... Squad owned -->you are kicked (usually with rude words ) or closed server. There are so, very few resistance servers if we compare with DOD or others. I don´t belive there are this minor quantity of Resistance players online on a weekend!! That´s the reason I´m trying to set up my own server for people who just want to play like a team but don´t have time to join a squad. żdo you know other servers based on this idea?
  15. Hi. I´m trying to set up a server to play resistance over internet. The problem is that I cant be viewed as a server from the outside of my LAN. Although I can join other servers from Inside or outside the LAN. I have two OFPR in LAN connected to a DSL router. żwhat do I have to do to make this server visible from outside the LAN? I´ve tried Gamespy and Internal Server creation but didn´t succeed. Hel me plz!! before going wasted Thanks in advance!
