you going to die! lol  I've looked on the website and it looks nice. Just wanna ask, is it possible to play CWC and resistance camaigns with new units, and the single missions aswell? that was the entire point of a "unit replacment" if u wanted a pretty new game you get SEB or FDF.... you want to play the old game and old missions with the new stuff.. then you want a unit replacment. *|waves hand to do jedi mind trick|* and you want the Y2K3 Mod

well id ask ebud... althou last time i talked to him he told me i could edit any of that stuff that he didnt care anymore.... but i hadnt seen him on ICQ in awhile. and like you said.. they arent gonna update it. ebud is helpin with offical VBS stuff.. selectthis has moved on to VBS and wouldnt give two shits and a penny about operation flashpoint. so i wouldnt hold my breath for the seb offical armor pack. and even if they were to do it... it would take at least 8 months to come up with even half decent models and textures for the pack.. and AA/OFP2/whatever u want to call it is destined for early 06... so.. even if u started on the pack now theres no way it would get done before the new game is released and people forget the name of this game. like i said its better then nothing. but hey.. if they give a hoot and a hollar about thier addons... then when they read this they can either say "i dont care" or "how dare you mod our stuff you will die a horrible death!" as it usualy is with most modders.. but being ebud is so laid back i really dont see that happening here

east armor changes: there is a catch thou. it will require approx 40 megs of external addons which can either be packed together or linked via "readme" edit: i should add that i know that its not perfect.. but its better then nothing at all right? the type 63 AA is a lil differnt from the real thing.. the real thing had an armored gunners mount with twin guns.. .as oppsed to this one having no armor mount and 3 guns.. but the primary factor is it was an AA turrent mounted on a T34 chasis. the LVTP5 replaced with a 7.... it was close enough in my opinion. again better then nothing.

hey i got a question for you... ive updated a few of the seb nam stuff for personal use... like swaping out some of the guns for INQ ones along with the M60 sound on the helos for the INQ one. ive also semi-completed the seb_1a.pbo with some armor. like the lvtp-5 i used an lvtp7 which is close enough.. but it can haul 25 troops in it. the M113, M163 replaced by INQ nam ones, along wiht the M60 replaced by the INQ nam one. the east t34, t54, type 76 self propelled AA gun, and a couple otehrs i replaced too.. did you want these for your campaign? to release with your campaign i mean? West Armor Changes:

you going to die! lol

just a small observation ive made.... the past few days ive been hooked on the SEB nam stuff... for personal use ive updated the SEB armor pack with an LVTP7, T34, type 76, all that stuff and swaped out some of the guns for INQ ones.. very nice now... but anyway... i noticed that SEB doesnt have custom eventhandlers.... which means Y2K3 stuff carries down to it. which means explosions, chopper dust, tracer rounds, blood, all that cool shit carries down to SEB and its really quite enjoyable... just thought id tell you all

yea i had to edit the mission sqm file in the intro part and the mission part cuz after about 10 trys.. each time resulting in "missing addon: blah" each time a new addon not listed in the "addons required" list in the sqm... after i finnaly got the list completed and i got no more errors. it was perfectly playable in Y2K3

depends on what era you like best. if you like 1985 then FFUR. if u like more modern stuff then Y2K3

check the Y2K3 site.. the model themselves are changed... but you need the "skypack and more" download to replace the wrist watch, NVG veiw, skys, and night sky just download it. install it to your Y2K3 folder and when te installer is done press finish.. it will run a second installer.. and all u gotta do is go play when its done  edit: i couldnt include prepacked data and data3d files since their uniqe to your system... so basicly you cant use my data.pbo cuz its differnt from yours. dont ask why proly jsut antoehr paranoid anti theft protecort BIS did. anyway just download the skypack and more and ur good to go myfreind

yea running Y2K3 i got buccoup missing addons errors for the intro and outtro. after an hour of adding in addons to the "Addons required" thing all was well playwise

there was a few that i modified. the bas_mah60 for example, i modified the ECM script. umm what else.. uhh wipmans colt 45 i changed the sound (yet again) plus this is an older version then his "latest release" in which he changed the danged config names... and theres several others. most of the other addons are super compressed to save download and install size. dispite popular belief the only performance hit form compressed addons is at the loading mission. where it may take 5 to 10 seconds longer to load that mission. once loaded there is no actual lag within it from compressed addons. so that would help you out too. basicly i cant give you a list of addons i modified due to im not sure which ones i did and didnt change.. but i can tell you the modified addons are still 100% compatable with missions that previously used them. so you have nothing to worry about there. Â edit: so just "yes to all" when it asks to overwrite

F4U Spitfire Me109 C47 P51 and a few others i missed. all have wheels that turn/roll. and NONE of them have lag... so yea, it cant be the wheels

well the icon was suppose to be maped to the install path, however that theory did not pan out to be correct. i didnt want to clutter up the users mod folder with other files that really didnt need to be there.. so i made the object hidden.

"my wife said if i work on one more mod she'd leave me..... im sure gonna miss her"

the icon... this is where its at

aw shit yea i know why the httv is like that.. cuz i got sick of needing the entire USMC pack just so the HTTV wouldnt give u a missng addon error.. then it turns out i needed the entire pack for other reasons anyway and never changed it back. regaurding the soar crew.. umm my only suggestion is mabe try downloading the BAS soar pilots and check thier size with the ones in Y2K3.. if they are differnt then overwrite them. or.. back up the Y2K3 ones and put those in place of them

@creo: yes that should work.. except for the M1A2 cuz i used everything. the ammo and all that. its a trial and error process. ferret: i dont know what to tell you there

i missed that message oh and i wasnt challenging your philosophy. i was merely stating that you dont particularly agree with mine, in case someone was like "well why doesnt he do this?" so they would know that your ideas and mine vary

lmao. i MSNed thunderbird the other day... i told him that i KNEW someone was gonna comment about this damn im good ill tell you the same thing i told him. HALO chutes are retangular like that, whilst all others are round. also they are an olive drab (army green) too. but since this is a game, and althou tb84 doesnt agree with this philosophy, its fine just how it is. cuz it makes the game more fun.

its in your Y2K3\ mod folder... just go to folder options and show hidden objects

well.. becuz i have 600 + megabytes of files that need to be installed into a certian directory in a preceise order, and if they are not then it wont work and id spend the rest of my natural life trying to explain to a few hundred people how to install a mod. the exe also creates a shortcut icon.. and it does NOT leve any registery files. which means theres no "uninstall" cloging up your add/remove programs unlike earlier shitty installers which did

no no no no... i used a WGL p3d file.. but its not in a wgl file... download the Y2K3 full installer. not the patch. i told you that via pm. you neeed my custom INQ weapon pack that is ONLY found in the full installer

basicly what he is saying is: unpbo the jam addon. open up the config.cpp. find the soldiereofficer (or something like that) and delete the line that says model= and that will inheirt the Y2K3 one. repbo and ur set

not unless someone makes it. uploading an RAR file with the nessacary addons and files will be around 700 megs and u saw the prohblems i had with 600. what kind of problems are you having? if worse comes to worse, althou i highly suggest agasint this.. find on ofp.info the 7.0 installer.. install that. then use the patch 7.0 to 7.1 patch

you mean JATO? Jet Assisted Take Off yea the C130 and C123 were often fited with these for taking off shorter runways
