I'm not complaining here, I'm thanking BIS for it, since it was annoying! Also I did't change the setting between 1.46 and 1.60, they are running both with the same sound settings.

Really? I thought it was 28/6

This one time, that's what exactly happened. I immediately got put into the game. Â It didn't show me the briefing. The game had only begun a few seconds before I got in, but it was one of those coop missions where we get immediately are on a transport heading straight into combat. It was a "saving private ryan" "D-Day" game. I immediately got into the game all confused and realized that I was the leader, and had about 7 other men under my command asking me what the hell the plan was. Â They were like "Hey Ice, are you there man?? Â What's the plan??" We had about a few seconds before we reached the landing zone. Â We were in a boat. Â And I had no clue what the hell was going on. I quickly explained to my teamates that I was clueless. Â And someone quickly gave me a rough description just before we got thrown into heavy fire. Most of my men got killed, and only me and 2 other guys made it far up the beach. Â The only thing that made it really cool, was the way that as soon as I got into the game, my men were already asking me. Â As if my body had been there for a bit, but some lag made it that I was not in the body til later. Â I mean that they could see me before I got into the game. It was like waking up out of a black out and realizing that all your men are surrounding you asking you things wonderign why you are not responding. Kindof like in the movie "saving private ryan", where Tom Hanks blurs out and comes back to see his men asking him, "What now??" I did get it together as best I could to lead a somewhat decent assault. Â But in the circumstances, it was a disaster anyways. It was like the move, complete havoc. Â There were hundreds of enemies, and many other NATO "AI" boats beaching also. So like hundreds of other "AI" men assaulting the beach also. Â It was great! Â Just like the same part in the movie!! There were bodies every where, and all the Americans were getting cut up from machine gun fire. Â Great mission. Â I just wish I could get into the briefing and join with my men. I am generally great at leading. Â And do it really well in singleplayer.<span id='postcolor'> What was the name of the mission? Could you please tell me where I can download it? It would certainly be great to play it with my squad! Thank you.

Hi, when do sunsets and sunrises occure in opf? Do they change with the date, I know that would be too much, but I been so often surprised by this game Mods: this is not off topic, I really need the info in one of my mission...And want the exact time. Thanks

Is it possible in MP to have intros ? I mean the cutscenes not the in-game scenes. I made a mission, when exporting it to single player the intro plays but playing it in multiplayer I don't get the cutscene Why is this? And more important is there a solution, how to do it? Thanks

I only make movies in the .sqs file.<span id='postcolor'> Yes! thats what I was talking about, movies from the .sqs file not the in-game scenes. I prefer them because one can use "esc" to end them, for me it's essential in MP, since MP games are restarted very often in my squad and we don't want to see the intro 1000 times. So it's possible, will try that... Thanks a lot!!!

Is the:"GSEU 1.02" the editorupgrade102 ? Or is Gunslinger's another upgrade. It's so long that I downloaded te editorupgrade102.

Well, the title just said it all. I want to set russians and americans to work together in a mission and don't kill eachother. Is it possible ? Thanks

Hi, for those who are interrested, I've tried both methods and both worked. I found it amazing that grouping a west soldier with an east commander makes them "friendly", but this method made further editing difficult namely with waypoints, teams and such... The second method worked like a charme, you only need to do it once(I feared that the editor would rewrite the settings each time I save but it didn't) so I went in this direction. Thank you all for your tips!

that's pretty good news, I feared that I would have to take my house somewhere else. Now does anybody know how it's actually done? Thanks

Hi, While making a new map, I wanted to add more buildings to a town, the problem is that if the terrain I put the building on is not flat(steep) the building seem the hang on one side and the rest is just floating. In short: if you go to the other side and lay down you see the "internals" of the building, it's not following the angle of the terrain. Any Ideas how to solve this(make the building follow the angle of the terrain)? Thanks in advance.

Wait, wait I said "not so good" that doesn't mean bad...well...erm...it means...;) But serious now, it seems that the objects must have a min. thickness to have correct collision detection in ofp, doors stairs and sometimes walls seem to be thinner :/ Too bad, it sometimes annoy me to go past stairs when I want to go to the upper floor. What about my original question, anyone have another idea? Or do I have to accept the fact that I must sink them in the terrain

Yes I know that but it will be (like you said) in the ground at one side and if this side have a door or whatever it makes troubles, adding to this the "not so good" collision detection of the engine... Thanks anyway for the quick answer

My friend can't start Flashpoint since yesterday, he said: he was playing yesterday morning normally then stopped, shut down the pc, after some hours he started Flashpoint and now he is getting this error: Read: Data file seek error (obloha.p3d: -1,10628202) I told him to reinstall Flashpoint again but it didn't solve his problem... Any Ideas? Thanks, Mohamz

Like I said we've reinstalled the game from the original cd. We tried now to reinstall the detonator drivers and it seems to work(even with HW T&L) but again, the game worked sometimes even before we reinstalled the drivers, so let's wait and see! Thank you all for your help! Mohamz

Hi, thank you both! It seems that it's HW T&L! When we disable it it works, but what is so strange is that it sometimes work WITH HW T&L :/ Perhaps it's the Graphics driver... or Windows (It's a long time since he didn't reinstall Windows) Perhaps BIS could just tell us what the problem could be(from the error message)?!!
