Why are people so obsessed with nuking the OFP islands??? Do you really hate these places so much? Yeah sure a nuke would be fun...just not practical. You could only really use it for eye candy. The way they simulated the nuke going off if you fail one of the 'destroy the scud' missions gave you a good enough impression of what was happening, so I'm not sure that even that is necessary.

I think there should definitely be a sound patch. I was disappointed wen I first fired the M16 in the demo. This was an assault rifle. I don't know what it really sounds like, but I expected it to roar when I pulled the trigger. Instead, what I heard was 'crack!'. The AK74 is a little better, but still sounds like an automatic spud-gun on steroids.

Hmmm let me see...would they shoot a man armed with a rocket launcher who has just shown that he does know how to blow things up with it? Probably, yes. But you are right, shooting a sideless barrel should not earn you the joy of friendly fire.

Why on earth do you want to stop people saving? It's bad enough only being able to save once!

LMAO!!!! More! MORE!!!

I changed mouse whilst OFP was installed a while back and the mouse wheel stopped working in it. A short time later I had to format. When I put OPF back on, this time the mouse wheel worked. So you may have to re-install OFP. But hopefully someone else can come up with a less drastic solution for you.

Definitely go up the hill. Watch for spetz natz, as they have an irritating habbit of intruducing Mr.Bullet to the back of Mr.Cranium. Go into the editior and play with a scud, and then you'll know what your looking for.

Yeah, lets have 'Spade soldiers'. They carry a spade on their back instead of a rocket launcher, and can use it to dig a trench. And as a last resort they can smack an enemy soldier round the head with it!

Well thats just another example of going to ludicrous lengths to make things PC. Also It's not just ships that are called 'she'. Cars are often called she as well. I hope they don't decide to stop doing that as well. The person who thought this up is clearly not a sailor.

If the suppressor does not have any contact the bullet, whats to stop it deviating from it's flight path, and smashing into the end of the suppressor rather than exiting the suppressor out of the hole at the end?

Sounds like it's gonna be a cool new twist on playing the game. If anybody who has played Mechwarrior3 should have a good idea how this works, as the gear and ammo you pick up in one mission is carried over to the next, and you have to make sure you have enough ammo to use all your weapons before you pick them. You have to actually think before you shot with some weapons, as to whether you really have to use it, whether you can afford to use the ammo. And conserve your squad mates, cos they are the most valuable asset you have, instead of sending them in to be killed whilst you pick off the enemy. Basically, it makes you work as a team, and think about your shots a lot more. Which is good :-)

You need to go here: http://www.ofpeditingcenter.com/tutorial.shtml And download the Unofficial Operation Flashpoint Command Reference Manual. That has a list of weapons you can add in there.

Cool pic! I hope it was made in photoshop or something similar, otherwise how the feck did you get that LST up into the air??

I've had this problem too. Curing it is rather simple, and you don't need to muck about with join waypoints and the like. Simply give each vehicle in the convoy a different rank, in descending order, so the first vehicle is Major, then next vehicle is Captain etc. Then set out the route with waypoints, and set their behaviour to safe and their formation to column. This should make them maintain a column. For columns of mixed vehicles, setting the speed to limited may also be necessary.
