I'm not that aware of the situation, except the paid sub thing. Getting back into Arma 1 / series after a decade or so. [EDIT] And he's actually asking for money. 😕

Wow they actually pulled the plug but didn't archive the stuff??

Anyone got a working link for this: http://arma-cwa.ru/2008-georgien-konflikt-mod.html ? The downloaded archive is corrupted.

Hi, Back from a long term hibernation. OFP Gamepark seems to have stopped posting news about new mods, is there a way to find the ones that have been released since without having to dig into all the updated threads in here? (some are tech support relevant, than about patches and updates - or necro posting)

I haven't played any BI games in a while, I'd say a few years. However, back in the days, I was a huge OFP fan, mostly due to its heavy modding community. You could literally play with any military vehicle that was ever designed, due to the abundance of addons. Even today stuff is still being released. How does AA2 or even the original AA fare when compared to OFP? From what I've seen, from a quick glimpse of modding sites, is that there is not a lot of content. (BI now releasing games in a rather quick succession probably does not help) Have many people ditched OFP for AA 2, or it's mostly a new community? I know the game is prettier, but wise how is it, comparatively? Sorry if it's the wrong section, did know where to ask.

The Lost Brother's Mod: IDF Infantry Ver. 4

No one has these? -
I will upload the file on Filefront for a second time as soon as possible. The file is currently available on Rapidshare at the following download URL: http://rs100.rapidshare.com/files/46507394/vilaspack2.rar

Eight Russian Tupolev Tu-95 bombers were flying in Artic airspace today before they were intercepted by Norwegian and British fighters. I fail to understand why these were not shot down. Russia has no allies except a few ex-Warsaw Pact Bananakistan republics, and cannot support a war against the West because of an half-arsed economical infrastructure. Basically we either starve them to submission, give a Stalingrad-esque touche to a few major cities, and wait for them to sue for peace. ICBMs wouldn't be a bad idea either, considering it would justify all the taxpayers' hard earned money with awesome FX special effects. Chenyan terro.... freedom fighters might be of help too. Get an Ayatollah to "Derka Derka Jihad" the Russian government and there would be optimistically a few hundred thousands of Mujahiddens joining in the following weeks.

I'm hoping the community will save Armed Assault... but since the release of the sequel is not really that far, I seriously doubt it will reach the state of the OFP.

Operation Flashpoint 2 officially announced

Because obviously all European countries are humanistic in nature and don't have any economical interests. Out of the six biggest worldwide petroleum corporations, three are European. AFAIK military intervention has never resulted in cheaper fuel prices. The cost-efficiency ratio of a pen and paper is more advantageous. -

Nor is Armed Assault. The latter is highly more realistic though. I'm assuming that new players can't get used to having to run for a few minutes before having to shoot anything because they come from games similar to Battlefield 2.

3000 view distance is quite asking a little (see a lot) too much. Have you been using DXDLL ? I've had major performance issues with it. With an AMD64 3500+, 1gb DDR400, and G6800GT PCI-E [EDIT] Didn't see the dates... damn.

Did Switzerland wage war against Germany because Luftwaffe aircraft would involuntary randomly cross the border ? Syria has been at war with Israel since 1973, South Korea and North Korea since 1953, Iraq and Israel since 1959... declarations of war are formalities. Ok, a highly sensationalistic image showing five physically unharmed at first sight crying kiddies (who were on a BATTLEFIELD) makes the U.S armed forces responsible for 100% of Vietnamese civilian deaths ? You are aware that that the Tet offensive massacres perpetrated by the NVA claimed around 5,800 (of which we have documentation) non-combattants and prisoners of war ? http://www.olive-drab.com/od_history_vietnam_atrocities.php http://www.rfa.org/english/news/2006/06/08/vietnam_landreform/ http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/SOD.CHAP6.HTM The Iraqi situation is a shithole because of Democrats, and sunday jihadists which are the main cause of Iraqi civilian deaths.Dems (antonym of neocons it seems - I miss intelligent leftists such as John Steinbeck, George Orwell, etc) cannot grasp the following concept and instead vote to withdraw more and more troops. Attaboy.

Operation Flashpoint 2 officially announced
matt714 replied to imported_bör's topic in OFFTOPIC - Games & Gaming
What I'm thinking: A sovereign and independant nation of Mabool (Meaning Flood /Deluge in Hebrew and continuing the biblical names of the original OFP islands - Abel, Eden, Cain, Noe (Noah) - Also would be a reference to OFP2's Lifeless, Israeli prog death/doom metallers ) is invaded by either China/Russia.China/Russia feels threatened, sends in the armed forces. Shit happens. Exiled president of the free country requests assistance at the United Nations, two hundred pages of bureaucratic formalities later the U.S decides to send in an expeditionary force. France surrenders to Germany for some reason. Victor Troska Jr. asks his father's old mate (Gatovski) to help him infiltrate undercover the aforementioned island in a civilian aircraft (Cessna obviously) to settle a score with a Russian officer previously under Guba that was cleared of all charges for the execution of his mother (Liz), other Novogan civilians, and SUPPOSEDLY responsible (Trotska Sr. was nearly as strong than Chuck Norris - would Chuck Norris die after being shot at by T-80s ? No.) for the death of his father. U.S forces under General David Armstrong land on the island. First missions consists of the player in the squad of Sergeant Robert Hammer (was demoted and sent to infantry after inadvertly crushing with his tank a general's dog in Desert Storm) being inserted by Blackhawk (checking in over the radio by pilot a la Black Hawk Down reveals that his name is Sam Nichols) on the island. Lots, lots, lots of Ruskie and Chinese commies die. After accomplishing one of his main objectives against Chinese installations, Dmitri Lukin's Spetsnaz squad is ordered to conduct another operation but this time against civilians of which he does not concur with [insert moral though bandwagon b-s here]. You know how it ends. Last mission involves everyone in a limousine (Luckin, Nichols, Jesus, Armstrong, Trostka Jr, Elvis, Trostka Sr, Hammer, Player, Guba's mum, Gatovski, Angelina's ghost, Marek Spanel's illegitimate siamese twin sisters, Benedict XVI, and 36 illegal Mexican immigrants) heading to the pub. However they all die en route in a car crash (Hammer was the one driving). OK maybe some things could be left out, but the remaining cheese would correlate with OFP's previous campaigns. -
no countries in the world have attacked the USA since the japanese attack of pearl harbor. US attacks in the world: -korea, Vietnam, Irak (2 times) and not to help the people of these countries), Afghanistan (??) but, yeah, the terrorists should be caught. in france, we have had also a lot of terrorism acts. Nazi Germany never attacked the United States either, so it's right to let them ethic cleanse and oppress the freedom of the populations of their European conquests ? As for Korea and Vietnam, I bet the North Koreans and North Vietnamese sure are happy under communist oppression. It's okay to let China and the USSR spread their full of love ideologies acrss the globe ? First Iraq war was motivated because Iraq was becoming a threatening force to world peace. Yay for the fall of Saudi Arabia and ensuing worldwide economical crisis ? With the second it was information about supposedly active WMD programs in Iraq. The fact that the U.N inspectors were constantly prevented from acceding Iraqi weapon sites didn't really help Hussein's regime cause. didn't really help his cause. AFAIK the evil oppressive U.S could of left the Iraqis in their shithole, but it instated democracy, freedoms, and infrastructure. Damn them ! Sunnis and Shittes have been killing themselves since before Saddam, it's not a U.S invention. As for Gisen, with what information or authority are you augmenting your so called fact that U.S pilots have abysmal training ? Seems like other Brits don't resort to unfounded nationalism: clicky

Looks great. Can't wait for these to be released.

The occurrence of the issues is utterly uncommon and minor when they do show up. I didn't encounter a single issue when recently replaying through the three campaigns with the 1.96 version of the Resistance .exe except the aforementioned non-gameplay breaking ones mentioned by SeppSchrot. You won't be disappointed by the CWC campaign (MINOR SPOILERS: <span style='color:white'>nothing like finally getting the Scud destroyed 2-3 seconds second before the end of the time limit in the Red Dawn mission. I almost cried out of joy.</span>) or any other one for that matter. Even Red Hammer has some good in it (especially challenge wise).

If it's a facestex related compatibility issue, I think you can fix it by extracting the IRO_EDF.pbo and changing all references of <span style='color:green'>Init = "_this exec ""\facestex\randface.sqs""";</span> to <span style='color:green'>Init = "_this exec ""\facestex</span><span style='color:blue'>2</span><span style='color:green'>\randface.sqs""";</span> in the config.cpp. I personally recommend MakePBO 1.1 and PBO Decryptor 1.5 for the aforementioned steps. I have had a few corrupt packing/unpacking errors with PBO Patcher 0.9. Links: MakePBO 1.1 PBO Decryptor 1.5 [EDIT] Does not work after all. I know you need to swap the randface.sqs, but it was removed from facestex2.pbo and I don't know which one was the replacement.

I am currently trying to replace the vanilla OFP static objects (compass, notebook, watch, etc) with WGL ones. However considering it is the first time I actually fiddle with modifying the aforementioned game, or any other game for that matter, I am currently experiencing quite a few issues especially reading the config.cpp. Any help would be seriously appreciated. I currrently have wgl_ui.pbo and wgl_veh.pbo in /@WGLGUI/Addons if this is of any relevance. I have attached the configuration files in the following download: configs.rar Have I created the most literally atrocious config in Flashpoint history ?

Thanks for the concise answer, but I finally managed to get it working by using WinMerge which proved a less confusing alternative than Notepad to exchange the paths of the .p3d files.

Main reason I haven't switched over to Armed Assault even if it's installed. Behind the scenes - Guba's arrestation. [im]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y163/Darkmt/00007.jpg[/img] ----------- Addons used ------------ Gux's Pink Pony. -
I don't remember having encountered any errors with this mission. But concerning your issue with the radio, you need to open the map (default M) and an option to contact the USS Midway should be offered on a static radio item similar to the watch and compass. It is highly probable that a shortcut that you can access with the numeric keys (ex: 0-0-1) was shown in the subtitles when you were given the order to make contact with the aforementioned vessel.

The fact that Placebo left didn't help.
