I guess your mission failed. Oh to get something On Topic: Thx Nagual for adding the paths to the Jungle ruins Really appreciated.

well that's what I mean. When someone places a new building on a map it' won't work. You need to find all the position on all buildings. pretty hard work and I think it's not really worth the effort.

Well that is relative ;) It also depends a lot on how much different stuff is on the map. It's good to know it's not JPEG. But too high resolution pac/paa are not good either. I hope you keep it reasonable. I know black/white paa format has special features that allow much better quality. Still it looked like very high resolution. But I may be wrong. But it's looking impressive.

uhmm the textures on the AKMS... they look very good. not to say too good. I hope it's in a reasonable resolution and I hope it's not JPEG.

uhm I doubt that will be working very well. Do you know how to find the window location(s) for every building with scripting without having to place reference objects manually before in the mission editor? I can't imagine how that should work.

Nostradamus predicted things until the year 3054 (or something like that - don't remember correctly) the only problem with his predictions are that they're all encrypted and nobody is sure if the current approach to decrypt it is right. Also the french revolution and world war predictions are everything but clear. We don't even know if the dates are encrypted properly. I wouldn't give much on this ;) He predicted that after that what we think is the WW2 prediction there will be 50 years of peace. Well that wasn't true ;) Also there should be a ilsamic flag ("half-moon flag") flying over the vatican by now. So either he's wrong or we don't decrypt his stuff right. Or it isn't encrypted and just a bunch of senseless waste he wrote while being high.

kid model (i personally strongly oppose it - children have nothing to do in war games) and taller models need new animations for everything (if you want to keep proportions)

I don't think he means units but that they make a new body model as he says. Allmost all unit addons use the BIS body model that is more or less edited. Mostyl only by attaching or removing some parts like backpacks and different hats. But I guess he's making an entirely new body model. If the body model is good I'm certainly looking forward to see how it looks.

well that's bad ;)

that's not exactly true.When I had the missing sound error then - in the mission editor - I couldn't preview a missions because I got the error and when pressing ok I switched back to the editor screen instead of the preview mode.

Edit: argh Avon was faster.

Great Dinger I was investigating in the cpp too and was a bit confused with those sound entries. I wasn't sure what they do. Good to know that you found the problem now. So I can save my head for other things ;)

Yup Mr. Burns. Mod and Res/Addons folders are equal for Ofp. So it's as if they were in the same folder. If you want try moving CoC_Arty.pbo to ofp/addons and you should get the error.

Tried it. Same problem. Oh dear. Again this problem. Since we (Dinger and Me) couldn't find any reason why gaz24mx.pbo is causing the problem it is perfectly possible that there are other Addons with the same problem. I suggest to try this: Move all your third party addons from ofp/res/addons folder to ofp/addons folder. If you still get the error. Well here starts the hard work. Then you should copy all your third party addons to a backup folder (you can leave the mod folders but just don't activate them on start of OFP) and check. If it still happens I have no idea at this point what it could be. If it doesn't happen start moving the third party addons back. best thing is to start moving addons back with the same tag to prevent error messages. After you moved for example all BAS tagged addons back run ofp and check if iyou get the error. if not move some other addons in. as soon as you get the error move the addons you moved in last time out again and then start putting them in one by one again and try to isolate the .pbo that causes problems.

This post is completly edited: Ok I hope this is tha last edit. The "missing CoC_ObHum sound" problem appears when you have CoC_Arty.pbo in operation flashpoint/Addons folder and "gaz24mx.pbo" (from the 1.5 beta release of the GAZ 24 car) in a mod or res/addons folder. If you put both pbo's in the same addons folder you don't get the problem. Or if you place CoC_Arty.pbo in operation flashpoint/res/addons folder you don't have any problem too. But remember that the readme states that CoC_Arty goes into operation flashpoint/addons folder. So I don't recommend putting it in operation flashpoint/res/addons folder.

I guess I found the problem of the missing sound. It's a incompabillity of the "gaz24mx.pbo". Remove it and it should work. At least it does on my comp. Edit: Of course the police pack of Deathmeat uses that addon too. So you have to live with the message on startup or remove the "dmx_policie.pbo" as well. *mutters something incomprehensible about beta testers*

Great work COC team. This is really what OFP needed. I guess the units in there are more or less dummy things because most of them aren't finished yet. But that's no problem for me. I think some people don't really recognize the huge and brilliant scripting work you guys did on the arty. That's what the addon is about and it's really amanzing. Thank you for opening to us a whole new dimension in OFP!

klick here Those are Leopard 1 Tanks. The name is Leopard C1, Leopard C2 and Leopard C2 Uparmored. But that's the canadian army name. btw the link is from Sigma and was posted on page 2 of this thread.

you sound like a spoilt child. For "OFP standarts" those tanks behave extremely good. And those are Leopard 1 tanks. Pretty old stuff. Offcourse the M1A2 is much stronger.

I love that plane

uhh oh. I love the F-4. Really great job on it. One of the coolest planes for OFP.

Ok there was a strange new worm on IRC tonite. It spammed a picture into IRC with a adress like: "www.billard-cafe-friedberg.de/LAN_16.10.03/....jpg" Everyone that clicked on it and had the german Windows Media Player (can only confirm with wmp 9) got infected. Infected people were sometimes signed off in windows at least once. It is a variant of the "W32.Spybot.Worm" The solution found at Symantec homepage(http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.spybot.worm.html) doesn't work. One thing I could find is that it logs pretty much everything you type (even passwords!) to a file called "kl.dll" located in "/Windows/system32/" folder. (confirmed on w2k/probably winXP) and probably sends it to this address: "my-botnet.is-hacked.de" Thanks to Killswitch, a friend of mine and some support from other OFPEC channel members we found a solution to remove the logging. First deinstall Windows Media Player since the worm replaced the "wmplayer.exe" with a file with the same name but only ~51kb in size. (You can check if you're ifected this way) Check if "wmplayer.exe" was removed. Then the Worm created a identical file called "updreg.exe" (also ~51kb in size) in "/Windows/system32/" folder. Now you have to remove the "updreg.exe" in that folder. Don't confuse it with "updreg.exe" in "/Windows/" base directory since that is part of a driver from Creative Labs. Then head to the registry find this location: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" Look for a key with reference to "updreg.exe". (NOTE: Check that it doens't point to /windows/updreg.exe) Delete that key. Then restart you computer. After reboot head over to "/Windows/system32/" folder and remove the "updreg.dll" (which is identical to the "spybot.dll" that a normal spybot worm creates) and the "kl.dll" Now the logging of you keystrokes should stop. Be sure to change all your important passwords now. Especially windows user password. Any IRC auth passwords and ICQ/other messenger passwords. Be advised that any information you typed while infected may have been sent to the server I mentioned above. I don't know if that is all. Be sure to let your updated antivirus check your files. There also may be a backdoor isntalled with this worm. I don't know if it gets removed with this solution if there is one. (it's 5 am here now, I didn't sleep. Sorry for if there is anything confusing in this post)

HTML was supposed to be platform-independent... (written with Konqueror) well it isn't ;) there not more to say than that.

Sorry for my bad english. CC  plan released BMP-2  shortly with aks and pm. Release of  mod is planned for spring 2004. as I understand the mod will be sold. Can you tell us anything on that?
