    An interesting way to play ofp

I have hardly used it but thats just my idea. lets not turn this into a debate about RW though... If your friends are out of radio range organize a LAN party at one house and another at another house then use the radios. I know this is kinda silly idea but its just another way to play ofp.<span id='postcolor'> Set RW to use dialup, and high priority, and it is cristal clear.. (all users must do it) Johan

    Editorupdate 1.2

Both Kegetys' Editor Addon for OFPR and the older Gunsliner's EU have the same file name. So, I suggest that you verify that you only have Kegetys' installed and that you DO NOT place it in \RES\Addons but rather in \AddOns or in a mod\Addons subfolder.<span id='postcolor'> Why is that? the RES\ADDON folder is imho for running RES with add ons, and the normal ADDON folder for running Coldwar? I have ALL in RES\ADDON and dont have problems seen.. Johan

Great info! Interresting also for addon makers, contains a lot of data.! Johan

    What do you think is the easiest?

    The choppers and planes in OFP are TOO easy to handle. Try a good chopper/plane in FS2002, and you will see what the difference is But for a tactical simulation, its good enough, it isnt a flightsim, but its the guns what count.. Johan

    Knowlegde..

    All about hollow point bullets.. the ins and outs. Who know what they can do from expirience (military,police) and the damage they can create? Johan

    Administrator privligues

    Hi, I have the same problem, just bought a brandnew Dell laptop, and installed OFP and Resistance what Santa brought me. Strange, I have this same problem as you had. But I dont wanna reinstall XP. Everything else works normally. AAARRGGHHH Johan

    Knowlegde..

    Can someone explain what happens when someone is shot from close range, from the front in the skull, and from the back. Has the bullet so much energy that is passes thru? or does it completly (from front entry) remove the back of the skull? Please someone with real life expirience in these. I will reveal later in what kind of research I am in regarding these questions. Johan.

    2 helo issues/question

    As an FDE guy for PSS I all can say that the flight dynamics suck big time. I didnt look into them deeply, but at first glance its awfull.. There can be add simply more realism in them easily. Johan

    Soundproblems

    I believe that can be done, just replaceing the default actions.. For example the Munger sound pack... but dont ask me about that! Johan

    Not at this point.. hmmm.. probably untill 2030 or so? Johan

    Disable ai

    Stupid thing from BIS.. how the f**k to enable them again? Johan

    Soundproblems

    convert to ogg, 44.1 khz stereo, and make an description.ext in the main mission folder, place music in MUSIC of your mission. Sample ext file: class CfgMusic { tracks[]={410,party}; class 410 { name = ""; sound[] = {\music\410.ogg, db+10, 1.0}; }; class Party { name = ""; sound[] = {\music\Party.ogg, db+10, 1.0}; }; };

    Music for nam missions

    DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT FORGET THE MOTOWN NUMBERS!! COMMODORES, DRIFTERS... ETC.. Johan God bless you all!

About the group, it would definatively make things easier. But this 2 points can ben sorted out currently : What I do is create a dummy unit f the desired side, let's say dummyEast. When I create a unit, I put it in dummyEast's group, then immediatly remove dummyEast from the group (dummyEast join grpNull) It's like creating a unit in its own group. And for the name, I use a generic name in the init field in the createUnit command (newEast=this), and then associate a local variable (_b=newEast) so that other instance of the script do not interfere. Whis'<span id='postcolor'> Hey... thats what I need!! Can you explain a bit further with some sample coding? Johan PLEASE!
  22. Okay, lets say I have a squad, that gets in a chopper, gets unload and the copper gets back to the beginning, and reloads a new load of good guys. Then it cycles until x=5 or one stops it. (whatever) How can I do that? can I create during the game new units or do they have to be on the map from the beginning? I like to have 5 loads of guys, or more if needed to create. It probably will be simple, but how in easy steps please? Johan
  23. Hi, I managed to get units to a marker set up in the editor. But I want to set a marker during runtime on the game map, and radio a team/unit to goto to that marker.. Is this possible? and how? Johan

    Help! those damn choppers

    Yes, while trying to replicate the We Where Soldiers mission I found out that: 1- the takeoff must be done limited to get all choppers in the air at once, 2- proceed with a normal speed to near the LZ 3- go back to limited for the leader chopper. 4- land at an H (editorupgrade102) 5- unload the guys (unload transport) 6- chopper leaves to next waypoint. Ideal would be that one of them seeks and destroy for a while when the unloading is done, otherwise its getting hard. Maybe an empty chopper what does that. Johan

    Move to marker

    Hmmm.. while asking for markers we turned to mr Einstein.. It work flawless with markers set in the editor, but not with markers set during runtime, meaning in the game. I tried to give the marker the same name as in the commands, but no luck. At least now I can command with the radio's to get another squad to come to me for help. And thats needed in Nam.! Bad is that the leader comes first, and then the team will follow.. they dont come all at once, even when I refer to their teamname.. but I can live with that. Johan
