The below adaption of the famous Night Before Christmas poem was sent to me by a buddy. The first time I read this I was 18 years old, a "Grunt" Marine on a tour of duty in Viet Nam (USMC Fox 2/7). It brought a tear to my eye then, as it does now. During this holiday season, a season of joy and thansgiving, please take a moment to reflect and remember our US Armed Forces... the Men and Women that protect and preserve our way of life. May God bless and protect each one. Thanx! **************************** Night Before Christmas 2001 **************************** 'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS, HE LIVED ALL ALONE, IN A ONE BEDROOM HOUSE MADE OF PLASTER AND STONE. I HAD COME DOWN THE CHIMNEY WITH PRESENTS TO GIVE, AND TO SEE JUST WHO IN THIS HOME DID LIVE. I LOOKED ALL ABOUT, A STRANGE SIGHT I DID SEE, NO TINSEL, NO PRESENTS, NOT EVEN A TREE. NO STOCKING BY MANTLE, JUST BOOTS FILLED WITH SAND, AND ON THE WALL PICTURES OF FAR DISTANT LANDS. WITH MEDALS AND BADGES, AWARDS OF ALL KINDS, A SOBERING THOUGHT CAME TO MY MIND. FOR THIS HOUSE WAS DIFFERENT, SO DARK AND SO DREARY, THE HOME OF A SOLDIER, NOW I COULD SEE CLEARLY. THE SOLDIER LAY SLEEPING, SILENT, ALONE, CURLED UP ON THE FLOOR IN THIS ONE BEDROOM HOME. THE FACE WAS SO GENTLE, THE ROOM IN SUCH DISORDER, NOT HOW I PICTURED A UNITED STATES SOLDIER. WAS THIS THE HERO OF WHOM I'D JUST READ? CURLED UP ON A PONCHO, THE FLOOR FOR A BED? I REALIZED THE FAMILIES THAT I SAW THIS NIGHT, OWED THEIR LIVES TO THESE SOLDIERS WHO WERE WILLING TO FIGHT. SOON ROUND THE WORLD, THE CHILDREN WOULD PLAY, AND GROWNUPS WOULD CELEBRATE A BRIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY. THEY ALL ENJOYED FREEDOM EACH MONTH OF THE YEAR, BECAUSE OF THE SOLDIERS, LIKE THE ONE LYING HERE. I COULDN'T HELP WONDER HOW MANY LAY ALONE, ON A COLD CHRISTMAS EVE IN A LAND FAR FROM HOME. THE VERY THOUGHT BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE, I DROPPED TO MY KNEES AND STARTED TO CRY. THE SOLDIER AWAKENED AND I HEARD A ROUGH VOICE, "SANTA DON'T CRY, THIS LIFE IS MY CHOICE; I FIGHT FOR FREEDOM, I DON'T ASK FOR MORE, MY LIFE IS MY GOD, MY COUNTRY, MY CORPS." THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER AND SOON DRIFTED TO SLEEP, I COULDN'T CONTROL IT, I CONTINUED TO WEEP. I KEPT WATCH FOR HOURS, SO SILENT AND STILL, AND WE BOTH SHIVERED FROM THE COLD EVENING'S CHILL. I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE ON THAT COLD, DARK NIGHT, THIS GUARDIAN OF HONOR SO WILLING TO FIGHT. THEN THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER, WITH A VOICE SOFT AND PURE, WHISPERED, "CARRY ON SANTA, IT'S CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL IS SECURE." ONE LOOK AT MY WATCH, AND I KNEW HE WAS RIGHT. "MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND, AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT." **************************** This poem was written by a Marine stationed in Okinawa Japan. /0 Carry on! Maj

IMHO: I bought GR shortly after it came out. I'll not kid ya it's a very "pretty" game. To compare it to OFP just is'nt possible. I've played it alot, and to be honest, I'm getting bored with it. What I think they should have done is apply the engine to Rogue Spear. Both indoor and out door graphics are awesome. I went back and played Black Thorn and to be honest, I like it better. GR is having a real negative impact on the "hardcore" RSE Â gamers that bought it expecting a game along the lines of RS. So say "buh-bye" to GR on PC's and watch it migrate to XBox. It's a shooter, not a Sim. SO tough to even compare it to OFP. I've not played alot of OFP since I bought it, but that may be changing here in the forseeable future. I'm in a GR squad so I'm gonna give it a month or two and see what UBI/RSE does with it before I put it on the shelf with the rest of my "Could have been Great!" games.... /0 Maj

Greetings! Wanna see something great! Go here: http://www.majorhavoc.com/ofp/havocsheros/squad.xml Ever hit the "P" key while in an MP game and notice all that space for info that is blank? Perhaps you've scrolled down and saw someone that had all that cool stuff filled out? Then asked about it in game, and never got an explaination? Hmmmm me too! Now that deep dark mystery has been brought to light by RN Malboeuf! You can be the envy of your fellow OFP players and learn how to do it by going here: http://pub51.ezboard.com/froughnecksgaminggroupfrm24.showMessage?topicID=10.topic But wait there's more! Not really, just kidding...... /0 Maj

Greets! I have both. They both are fun. But to compare them is like comparing an orange to a tangerine. They both are citrus fruit, but that's where the simularities end, IMHO. /0 Maj

Greetings, I've been messing around with the editor for a bit and am having a ball. However, I'd really like to add other building type objects besides the ones in the drop down menus. Yes, I've used the "hack" of replacing a soldier with a building. class Item0 { position[]={6784.154297,23.226109,11380.689453}; special="NONE"; id=0.000000; side="EAST"; vehicle="SoldierESniper"; player="PLAYER COMMANDER"; leader=1.000000; skill=0.200000; markers[]={}; }; replace SoldierESniper with Housegaraz_bez_tanku class Item0 { position[]={6784.154297,23.226109,11380.689453}; special="NONE"; id=0.000000; side="EAST"; vehicle="Housegaraz_bez_tanku"; player="PLAYER COMMANDER"; leader=1.000000; skill=0.200000; markers[]={}; }; You get this: Cool huh? Except if you change it in any way it reverts back to the soldier. This also requires you to edit the mission file each time you want to add something new. Are any of these buildings EVER going to show up in the editor it's self in the objects drop down menus? BTW, for those of you that want to play with it, I got  the resource from http://www.ofpeditingcenter.com.

My jeep hit a "bump" in the road...

Greets, Most game editing programs that use 2d object placement have an option to turn on a grid ovelay of the editing area to aid in more precise placement of those objects. I've seen it in OFPEd in "preview" articles of the editor. Is that option gone? (I really hope not) If not, how do I turn it on? TIA! /0 Maj

Greetings! As some of you may remember from previous posts that I use Kali for my game locator software. I've been using it since 1995. It cost me $20 bucks to register it then. I fired up Kali today and the below message was in my face! http://www.kali.net The Kali ordering system is currently offline. If you wish to use Kali in the meantime, and do not have a registration. please use the following serial# and keys: Serial :b20ca4111110 SKey :704908c5527e TKey :137040492960 If you have any trouble don't complain to us. It's free. Also note, this is only temporary and may stop at any time. This beats the heck out a GSA and, at present, ASE. Click on the above link to download it. I try it I think you'll agree. No Ads. Chat rooms, file xfers, most if not all major games supported. I'll be posting a tutorial on adding OFP if enough people use it. Send me an email via Kali and I'll give you help on adding OFP. My Kali user name is MajHavoc, my serial is 000541 This message is also posted in Multy Player section of this board also. /0 Maj (Edited by MajHavoc at 6:02 pm on Nov. 16, 2001) (Edited by MajHavoc at 1:47 am on Nov. 17, 2001)
