    Hawk's nimitz class aircraft carrier

    Hey there, I'm experiencing problems when taking off the carrier, when I place an A10 on the deck it "wobbles" down the runway, its as if its submerged in the flooring! Does anyone know how to correct this? Â EDIT: I think I have pinpointed what is exactly happening - basicly if you start in the A10 on the deck at the beginning of the mission, the plane's Gears will be up, causing it to bounce about. However, if you place an empty A10, its Gears will be down. Therefore you get into the plane and can fly it. Is there anyway to fix this so I can actually start in the plane at the beginning of the mission? I was thinking something along the lines of a "doaction" which makes the planes gears go down, however I'm not sure how to do it. Thanks, Plastic_boy

    Tears of the sun seals

    Ok, i'm glad thats cleared up Another thing I noticed last night was the "M4 Customised Marksman" used by a unit has some real trouble trying to shoot people! I had the unit on the highest skill setting, firing at a mounted machine gun on top of a building - he kept constantly shooting just to the left of the ruskie. Just thought you'd like to know if its gone unnoticed
  4. Hey there, I was wondering if there was a particular line in the config.cpp file which indicates whether a weapon is "silent" (SD) or not? If so, what do I put? Thanks, Plastic_boy

    Tears of the sun seals

    I watched the film today and felt the need to download the TOTS BETA version, what can I say, these units are absoultely amazing! Keep up the good work, SJB! Just one quick note; I was using the SD versions of the weapons and they don't actually appear to be "silent". Is this supposed to happen? When I fire with the original HK MP5 SD at an unsuspecting ruskie from behind, the surrounding patrols don't "hear". However, when I use the TOTS SD weapons, the patrols react as if it was a "loud" weapon. I know its at BETA stage but I thought you'd like to know
  6. Hey there, I've been having a particular problem recently with planes in the mission editor - each time I "preview" with an a10, LGB or any other fixed-wing aircraft in the mission, I keep getting this particular error: "Cannot load object data3d\snake.p3d" Anyone got any ideas? Thanks, Plastic_boy

    5133p39's yomies [zombie mod]

    Hey, any cool updates coming our way about the Yomies? Also, can anyone upload the pack to a website? So far I've had considerable trouble trying to download from other mirrors (can't find the file) or the author's website, where the majority of the Yomie files are corrupted once downloaded. Thanks, Plastic_boy

    Ofp moments in gameplay

    The best OFP moment I experienced was in the early days when Winter Kolgujev had just come out. Me and my friend downloaded the map with the snow infantry and decided to have a little one on one via LAN We both chose sniper - I started at the northern part of a forest, him at the south. For the next 15 minutes it was complete silence from the two of us. All you could hear was the crunching snow and the background tundra noise. It was getting really tense towards 13 minutes, it seemed like i'd been scanning the area for hours - cautiously moving from cover to cover..... I suddenly remembered I hadn't looked left or right since I'd started - i'd focused all my efforts straight ahead! I slowly turned to the left..... OMG! There he was! He was lying down right next to me!!! Looking in the same area I had originally done!!!!! With the sudden shock and suprise I laughed out load - he then turned to face me! We both started firing at each other without using the scope, missing each time! *heart pounding* We then fumbled with the scopes and after what seemed like minutes I finally brought my scope to bear on his head! BANG! BANG! After a lot of laughing and shouting I went out for a cigarette. It was then I noticed my hands were shaking!

    Hi there, I've just downloaded the units but I want to make the British on the West rather than East. I have DePBOd MLV_Paras and have the CPP file open - what line do I have to change in the file to make them on the West side?

    Bas island - working title "lost island"

    Wow, thats a lot of different terrain then Will the buildings vary on what climate you are in? Like small huts (like SEB Ia Drang) in the Jungle area and sand blasted buildings in the Desert?

  21. If its of any help to all the people with the sound crackling issue, I recently updated my computer with XP, and I have now got the problem too. Originally my computer was on Millenium Addition, but since the upgrade, OFP has been behaving badly! I've found that when large explosions (like a heat round) is fired and impacts, sometimes the sound will abruptly crackle and distort all remaining sound. The only way you can stop this is by restarting OFP. I have read the Avon Lady's FAQ on fixing the problem, and I have gone into the REgedit thingy, but it appears I don't have the same folders or files. Has anyone got these sound problems on an older operating system? Like ME or 98?

    The usual sound crackling problem...

    Thankfully its fixed. From what i've learnt it definatly had something to do with the XP Upgrade. Although to fix the problem it really depends on what PC you have. In my case, XP made my VIA chipset cause the random static. In the end I didn't download the drivers but re-read the FAQ by the Avon Lady and downloaded the "PCI Latency Patch". Here is the FAQ item and the patch link. Also there is more info at this forum thread where people have had the similar problem. Hope this helps

    The usual sound crackling problem...

    I just found out its related to other sounds aswell. Not only the heat rounds but also speech over the radio and all sorts! I'm gonna download the XP Drivers for my sound card and see if it resolves the issue, I'll keep you updated!
