NEO -PZ-

It's a conspiricy... Meet me at the fontain... Bring the case...

Really? I've seen pictures of some food mixed together with some bread, and look, we have spam. Spam got a bad rumour, or how should I express myself, and therefore the Internet spamming that we all know about got this name. Right?

I've never eaten spam. Have you? I really want to know.

Maybe more than a friend?

I don't know.

I don't know it. Your flags are big! Scandinavia

I don't get this.<span id='postcolor'> Wait, what don't you get, the cause of the graphics problems or what I mean? The graphics problems becomes present sometimes when I scroll up and down on the map in the Mission Editor with the mouse wheel. As seen on the screenshots in the first post of this thread, it's impossible to see anything. To get it normal again, I alt+tab out from the game and then in again, that's when everything gets normal again. Now, I don't know why it's like this... But still, as I said, it's not a major problem as I solve it in 5 seconds by 2x alt+tab.

The sound is crap on my copy's VON. I've wrote about that before. Anyway, I use TeamSound.

1. I'm sure there is a script for this. But I'm afraid I don't know it. 2. Choose "Playable as Gunner" in the Edit Unit window. I'm not 100 % of this, because I don't have the game running currently.

Since Februar 2, 2002, it says at the first page: </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">Today inofficiall Independence Lost site opens, and the site are still under construction, in the future you would find lot of things about and to the game.

Neo out.

Something is causing a fault in KRNL32 (?) and game shuts down. Today 2 or 3 times, though mostly not that often. What is this? I often have problems with KERNEL or whatever it's name is. Darn Windows Millennium Edition... While we're on the track - XP (Home Edition) and OFP, are they working well together?

Yes, I've noticed, that's weird.

No. You can't increase your bandwidth by "tweaking".<span id='postcolor'> Yes. Before I got broadband of 10 Megabit/second, I used to have a 56K modem... I don't remember how much difference these programmes made, but they make difference. And yes, if you can you should get a better connection, but not everyone can afford it and not everyone has even got the possibility to get a better connection. OK, Another tip, if not just for 56K-ers, so for everyone: * Shut down every program that takes bandwith, while playing OFP MP (e.g. MSN Messenger). Hmm, could you think of any more tips?

Hmm, am I wrong, or does only the western soldiers wear bags on their backs? If the eastern soldiers don't, it's a pretty good assignment. Another thing is that eastern soldiers' uniforms looks like green with leaves... red leaves. Western soldiers' uniforms are more green, darker, like someone said earlier.

I'll try what DestroyerX said, and if it doesn't work, I could need some help for external files I'll keep in touch.

How do you make it possible for the players to take the flag? Like in CTF...

This seems professional, I'm about to download some missions and try them out later. I'll add my comments here later.

There is a small program, OFP Launcher. You can choose to run OFP in a window, which makes it possible to minimize it probably without taking a risk that OFP crashes. When I alt+tab out of the game a couple of times, it often crashes.
