"I myself am having a problem , i am loading the game ... and when it says " wait a moment..." and its about to go to main menu , it shuts off" Mine used to do something similar to that. Adding the: "-nomap" option, w/o the quotes, to the command line fixed it for me. That was with an older video card and computer system. On my new system, for some reason I dont have to add the -nomap option.

About the error, I havent fixed it yet.  However, it is less frequent.  It used to happen immediately after everyone had borded a tank.  Now, after the reinstall, its fairly infrequent.  I also left the ECP settings a their default setting.  Before, I had the ECP effect distance much higher. Still waiting to try new version of ECP and EECP though.

I just played thru the Codemasters Resistance campaign using the E-ECP mod, and had a good time. I noticed most / all the new weapons / units from the EECP mod were available in the Resistance campaign. The single missions were making use of the EECP stuff as well. For example, in the single mission "seal the car", when you go to gear the M-60 had been replaced by a SAW, etc. I wanted to try the same with Y2K3, so I ran a second installation of Flashpoint, and installed the Y2K3 self installer, Y2K3 Addon files, and the raft / patch, llaumax sky, and Performance Enhancer script mod. I started to play thru the campaign, and I noticed not much was changed. IE, I dont think the game was making use of all the Y2K3 good stuff. Pretty much stock weapons, etc. And in the single missions, I noticed the M60 was still the stock M60, and not a SAW or anything else. But, in the ground attack mission, the cobra had been replaced with the Y2K3 one with the sharkmouth. In the campagin, I did notice some new weapons, like the special M4 with scope. Is there any reason some new weapons / units might show up and some wouldnt? Thanks

Will the beta be on the web somewhere to DL? Or is it just for playtesters? Id like to give it a crack to see if it fixes my wierd Error Loading Texture problem. I'll try to play with the editor and see if I can tell what does it. -Tom

Reinstalled everything again, verifiying that all the version #'s of the required mods are correct. I installed all the mods to the ECP/addons directory. Still does it. And, it only does it when ME/MY troops are in tanks. It plays fine when there are just other tanks around, friendly or enemy. Hopefully a newer version of ECP and EECP will help with that. When are they coming out anyway? PS: 1 slight discrepancy: The installation instructions on page one of this thread say: "5. Place EECP_RSC.pbo into (Your OFP directory)\@ECP\AddOns. 6. Place DTAEXT.pbo into (Your OFP directory)\@ECP\dta. 7. Play the game using your ECP OFP shortcut." They do not mention the newer ECP_EFFECTS.pro included with the eecp 4.2.rar file. Does this file still need to be placed in the ECP/addons directory? Awesome game and an awesome mod, nonetheless.

I just started playing Flashpoint agian, after a very long break. Im glad to say that the E-ECP installtion went MUCH eaiser this time than about 5 months ago! However, one link is bad. The RHS-T55 tank pack is corrupt on the website link provided. You can replace it with this one, which works fine: http://www.edgefiles.com/file.x?.....00.rar That website also has version 1.20, will that work with the current version of E-ECP? Back to my original question... Whats a good campaign these days to play with E-ECP? I like regular soldier battles the best, but helicopter combat is fun too. The only thing I detest is the jet aircraft. Is it just me, or does Flashpoint suck as a jet flight sim? Stick to choppers! Any suggestions for a on foot / tank / helicopter campaign? Thanks! Great game and eecp makes it that much better!

Anyone know where to get inquisitor's nvgs these days? I did a search, and any links to his page were dead.

Anyone else get the frequent crash to desktop when playing the resistance campaign with EECP installed? Â In missions where my squad is in tanks, it almost always happens. Â Crashes to desktop and then says "Error Loading Texture" I belive i have the recommended versions of all the addons required by EECP Thanks EDIT: Sorry about posting this in the wrong spot.

Hi out there. I just started to play Flashpoint again after about 6 months. In installed the newest version of EECP and started playing thru the resistance campaign, and PMC Fury. I stumbled across the Y2K3 site and started downloading the latest version of that. From the people who played both, which one did you like better? Which one is better for playing thru the stock campaigns, as well as user-made campaigns? Thanks!

By now Ive figured out that you cant save a game mid mission, and then load it with EECP. A long time ago, someone posted a way to get around this. Â It involved removing one of the save game files, and then doing something with it. Anyone remember this? Thanks EDIT: Never mind, figured it out.

Thanks for the answer. Yeah, there are T-55s in the missions with that texture crash. But, I downloaded the original versions of the RHS stuff, so its not that. I just happens when my guys are in armor, in general. Hopefully the new version coming out will fix it. Thanks alot for the help!

After playing both mods today for a while, I have to say they are both awesome. They both really improve on the original game. I never would have started playing Flashpoint again w/o these mods coming out. Overall, I like the EECP mod better. I like the flash and explosions of y2k3, but EECP seems to play better and be a little more realistic. There is a new ECP coming out? Whats new about it?

Any way to 86 the muzzle smoke? Anyone whos ever shot an M-16 / AR-15, etc, will tell you they dont smoke like that. Awesome mod, however. Thanks

Pappy: What config (PE) are you referring to? I'd like to check it out

RED or Kury: What is the latest version of ECP? The only version number I could find on http://www.ofpec.com/editors/ecfg/ was for the DR Config installer, which is 1071 Thanks

Im playing Resistance Campaign using the E-ECP mod, and I dont like the nightvision goggles at all. Â The ones in Y2K3 are great, but I dont want to play that full mod. Is there a simple way to change the night vision goggles used? (For all units) Thanks!

Bneu: Whats the difference between the pbo's in the HWTL directory, and the pbos in res/dta? And when I "makepbo" the new directories, should I check all the compress boxes in makepbo? Thanks!

Hopefully a simple fix.... I'm playing the E-ECP mod and I like the nightvisiongoggles MUCH better in Pappys mod, so I'd like to use them in E-ECP. In pappys Y2K3.cpp file, I found the code : class NVGoggles : Binocular { displayName="$STR_DN_NV_GOGGLES"; showEmpty=0; valueWeapon=5; opticsZoomMin=1.000000; opticsZoomMax=1.000000; modelOptics="\wgl_ui\nvgoggles\wgl_nvg_optics.p3d"; model="nvg_proxy"; I also found similar code in the E-ECP Config.bin file (that I de-pbo'd to a .cpp), and would like to replace it. Where do I get the "file", \wgl_ui\nvgoggles\wgl_nvg_optics.p3d, and how to I reconvert my new config.cpp back into a config.bin? Thanks!!

Got the sounds to work by re-installing, thanks. I have a new problem now... Second or third mission, when I picked up the AK74/GP25 grenade launcher, it says: "cant load (or find) addon c8x_magazines" I have the c8xmag.pbo and c8x_russ and c8x_usmc addons. I can play the mission, but the grenande launcher just has one round (no vest...) Question two (this may have been asked allready...) Is there anyway to "easily" use the night vision goggles from Pappys Y2K3 in this mod? The E-ECP night goggles are almost unplayable (even though it may be more realistic...) Thanks!!

Im missing some sounds when playing this addon. Specifically, I've notcied: 1. When mines blow up, they dont make a sounds. 2. No sound when driving the URAL These are just two I noticed in todays mission, any ideas? (I installed the DR sound pack, of course...) Thanks!!

Anyone have a thought on Y2K3 vs ECP? Ive played the resistance campaign about halfway thru with Y2K3 and encountered a few bugs that have halted my progress. Pappy has been VERY helpful in fixing them though. How does regular ECP compare? Or is all of ECP allready used in Pappys mod? Thanks

Thanks pappy. I didnt have to do what you said, I just reinstalled the bas_repair.pbo file. However, NOW Im getting another error (on the same mission). Says it "cant find the addon bas_mh6185" I know thats a valid addon, because I found this text about an addon mission when searching for it: "Liberate requires: Editor Update102, Kegety RPK74, bas_mh6185, MTLB, Bas_Weaponpack, BAS_Soar185, BAS_derad, KEGak107" However, I cant find that addon on any of the flashpoint sites or in any of the bas helicopter zip files. Any ideas?
