    Terrain detail - wow!

    Athlon64s' on chip memory controller will give you the same (or better) performance with OFP as any P4 rig.

    The day after tomorrow

    That's is my birthday. Oh well, after 21, you're only celebrating your own demise. May as well celebrate it in style.

    Us wwii memorial dedicated

    The U.S. WWII memorial isn't just about the the war in Europe. The majority of U.S. WWII casualties happened in the Pacific. As for the memorial, I'd say it's about 40-50 years too late, as the vast majority of WWII veterans aren't alive today to see it dedicated.

    End of world in 23 days?

    The site you linked to is 'bushcountry.org'. That just about says it all.

    Scan horizon

    I've used this for sentrys in all of my missions. It makes guards *much* more effective.

    Scan horizon

    FYI: Over at OFPEC there is a thread that lists all of the actions people have figured out. There are quite a few.

    Scan horizon

    You'll find that many commands that are on the menu cannot be executed using the action command - like RELOAD For Scan Horizon, you can do it with a script, but you would have to figure out a way to make them stop. Here is a function that emulates the 'Watch Direction' you can give yo your soldier int he game. It could be used to make a scan horizon script. http://www.ofpec.com/editors/funcref.php?letter=W#WatchDirection

    Windows bug..

    Same thing happened to me when I installed a fresh copy of XP on my new laptop a month ago, only it was Blaster that got me. Being the parnoid type, I reinstalled again from scratch after it happened - only I enabled the XP firewall before connecting for the first time. When doing fresh installs, the XP firewall will prevent Blaster/Sasser infections while you patch your machine up.

    Windows bug..

    You've definitely got the Sasser virus. Try Stinger. Start your computer up in "Safe mode with networking" - Press F8 as soon as Windows tries to start to get the menu. Then go to: http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/ and download stinger. Run it and it will clean your system. Info on Sasser: http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/Print125008.htm

    Ofp ground tex in other game as mod?

    Seems to me that would violate the OFP EULA.
  13. Note that AMD64's on-chip memory controller/hypertransport link to the memory play extrememly well to the current OFP engine's high emphasis on raw bus (CPU to Memory) speed. I don't see any reason why it won't be the same for OFP2. Regardless of whether or not OFP2 supports 64bits, an AM64 system should be the best choice if you're aiming to get the most out of Flashpoint's engine. Of course, byt the time OFP2 comes out, I'm sure Intel will (they had better!) will have countered with a platform change that allows such insane CPU<>Memory performance as the latest AMD solutions - but we'll see.

    U.s. missile shield won't work

    The star wars programs were not a complete waste of money. Though the goal of the project has yet to be reached, great technological advances have come out of the research, similar to the advances that came out of the space program.

    No jump

    SOme other people have mentioned that jumping can be implimented without causing the bunny hopping scenario and I'd like to say I agree. Hidden and Dangeous 2 has one of the best implimentation of jumping of any game I've seen. In H&D2, you have an 'endurance' meter that is quickly drained if you sprint for more than a few seconds, crawl at a high speed for a few seconds, or jump. Jumping just once in hidden and dangerous reduced your endurance bar greatly, making it virtually impossible to jump again wihout stopping, or slowing down to a walk for a few seconds first. Also even if your endurance bar is at it's highest, you really can't jump very high - just enough to clear basic obtacles, or jump across short gaps. In H&D2 multiplayer, jumping is NOT an issue. I wouldn't mind this kind of implimetation at all. Jumping up onto short walls is something every virtual soldier SHOULD be able to do.

    Help with ecp and saved games!

    The ECP boys are working on a fix for the savegame bug that look promising. Hopefully they can tweak it so we can play with ECP and load our savegames

    Mp3 player!

    In the U.S., FM transmitters are only illegal if they interfere with licensed radio stations, so legality concerns are not a factor for me. There are tons of products sold in the U.S. that contain FM transmitters - wireless cellphone kits that boradcast to your car stereo is one I can think of. As for recording, I would never record songs from the radio -that's so 15 years ago . I would use the FM transmitter feature to listen to songs in my truck and my house. I too have my entire music collection in ogg, ape, and mp3.

    Mp3 player!

    If I ever buy one of these it might be this: http://www.neurosaudio.com/ Along with Mp3, it plays the ogg vorbis format, which I preffer, and it can do other really off the wall things, like broadcast the music it's playing to your stereo in FM and record songs from FM radio.

    GREEN or GREY screen error...

    Oh so it is a grey screen. I'm way behind on the lastest flashpoint bugs.

    Irql_driver_not_less_or_equal

    Sound Blaster Live is the only thing I've ever seen cause this partcicular error. An updated driver will fix it. The preferred fix is of course to drop your SB Live card off a tall building and buy a different card. I hate that card.

    GREEN or GREY screen error...

    Hmm Color blind? I think you're getting the green screen error. First download the 1.96 patch (this is assuming you have Resistance or GOTY Edition) If the patch alone doesn't fix your problem try editing your shortcut and adding "-nomap" to the end of the command line. To edit a shortcut, right-click on the shortcut to the game and select "properties". Your shortcut should go from this... "C:\Program Files\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint\FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE" To this.... "C:\Program Files\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint\FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE" -nomap Assuming you don't have 1.96, that patch alone might fix your problems.

    Net send

    Another easily method to foil hacks is to disable "CLient For Microsoft Networks" and "file and printer sharing" in your internet connection properties. Despite how Microsoft would like it to be, the internet should NOT be a Microsoft Network.

    Net send

    "net send" works with Winnt, Win2k, and Winxp, and even Windows server 2003. It's the source of those pop-up spam messages like this: Most people nowadays turn off their messenger service which is required to receive messages using the net command. The syntax is jsut as apollo described it...<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">net send 192.168.0.2 "Hello"...where "192.168.0.2" would be the ip address of the machine your sending the message too. Both the sending and reciveing machines must have the messegner services enabled for the message to be transmitted/received, and the receiving machine needs to have the proper port open (or not have a firewall), which I think is either 135, or 137.
