Predator-23rd-

old question but good question, without 100% satisfactory answer. this is how you change your ingame name of your CURRENT profile, i.e. without making a new folder and copying profiles to transfer saved game states. (1) edit your registry: "regedit" > "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Bohemia Interactive Studio\ArmA 2 OA" > "Player Name" change it to <new_ingame_name> of your choice (2) go to your ArmaA2 folder "C:\Users\<your name>\Documents\ArmA 2" and rename the two files to "<new_ingame_name>.ArmA2OAProfile" and "<new_ingame_name>.ArmA2Profile" done.

I guess I have solved my problem. Although I can't give a good explanation for it I believe that it was connected to my previous mission (find but do not destroy three shilkas, just radio their positions). Although I knew the position of shilka #2 (prima's mission guide = OFP gold edition give-away) I was unable to actually find it and I decided to finish this mission with minus points by only finding two shilkas etc. Since I was so desperate about getting this hilldozer mission right (campaign rating matters to me) I reverted to the shilka mission and replayed it. This time I was able to find ALL three shilkas. After that I started Hilldozer and saved the mission but on this try OFP did not create a "mission" sub-folder and everything seems to be normal. I also noticed a difference in the save.fps file headers. While the broken mission's save games have a header like this here: "... mode ... ARCADE ... nextMagazineID,...audible..." (... are placeholders for squares since I used wordpad to open the files) while the good save game has a little different header at the same position, like this here: "... CurrentCampaign..1985...CurrentBattle...Part2...CurrentMission...28KilldozerParty...mode.. .ARCADE...nextMagazineID..." I know this is not very important since almost every dedicated player (but me) has already done all this missions but I just wanted to share me observations. Again, thank you very much! Predator out! Resistance is futile.

I have exactly this particular problem. Nothing helped so far but I haven't tried the replacement OFP file ... and I hope I can find some other way, i.e. reverting from older missions ... thank you very much, the avlon lady! I strongly hope this problem will go away since OFP is the only game I am still enjoying OFFLINE (Falcon 4.0 is not as challenging as it used to be). Predator out! Resistance is futile.

I am also unable to finish this mission properly. after having finished off all tanks and soldiers the mission actually ends "mission completed" but as soon as I press "continue" it returns me to campaign selection screen and it looks like the mission is still in progress (saved at some point, waiting to be played). I noticed that unlike all other missions this mission does create a "missions" folder in the "1985" folder and puts all files there instead into the "1985" folder. is it a 1.91 patch (my status) bug or what? thanx! Predator out! Resistance is futile.

Hi ! I am new to OFP:R (although I bought it quite a while ago) but I loved it and now I almost stopped flying FALCON 4.0 for this simulation. Since I am fairly new I don't know which issues (in general or particular regarding 1.85) have been brought up but I like to strongly urge the developers to introduce a new sound adjustment slider for VEHICLE INTERNAL SOUNDS - and ONLY(!!! FOR THEM. It is very very annoying that I can't hear a squad-mate in a M1A1 or helicopter because of the engine sounds. Although I can reduce the EFFECT SOUNDS this also reduces other very important sounds and puts me in danger in high thread enviorments. Is there any hope that this problem can be adressed soon? Predator out! Resistance is futile.
