Oops, I must admit that I was talking about the Gold edition, I apologize for talking such nonsense... Me <-- so stoopid

No, you don't need Queens Gambit. What you pay for there is just the missions. With 1.08 you get all the goodies (Vehicles & Guns) that came with QG.

I got a X52 Pro and the same issues with the throttle. I'm afraid it's just a common problem which cannot be solved by us useres, it needs to be patched. In fact i find it much easier to fly the Warthog by Mouse and KB than with my Joystick. Sad but true.. If anyone knows better I'd be glad to hear it here!

Aah, great - thank you so much. Btw: Space+R changes HE/SABOT Space+F changes Weapon

Hey folks, could anyone tell me, how to give orders to my gunner as a tank commander? I mean switching ammo type and gun type... I can only assign targets and open my hatch etc, but I cannot find a key for my gunner to change to HEAT or machinegun. I'm quite sure this has been answered before, but my head is too tired to find some good search-words. Thx, Pollux

My first guess would be that your file is too big. AFAIK the limit for a face texture to be shown ingame is about 100k (or 96..?) So if you compress your jpg a little you should be fine!

Yeah, me too - a tutorial would be very helpful. I'm not new to Photoshopping pics 'n stuff, but not a pro. I've spent about 4-5 hours retouching my face.jpg and the result was, to be mild, unsatifying. I even tested pasting my old face.jpg (only the face, not all) into the new, but it still looks crappy. I Don't know anything about the heightmapping-stuff - what do I have to do there, how is it implemented in a single-layer-jpg? BTW: My personal face's geometry is a lot different from the one the mesh in OFP is using, so if I'm lowering the height (what's the opposite of "to stretch??) of my head to fit the mesh it doesn't really look like me. Or is it streched again in the game? Hope you know something... Pollux77

So this is my new solution, quick and simple. You can use any FTP Server program, OFP understands the ftp-address syntax including passwords! I'm using I'm using Cerberus FTP Server to host the xml file. Advantages: - Small download (350 KB) - Low system memory and CPU utilisation - free - easy to set up and run - native NT service support and some others you can download it from cerberusftp.com You have to create a new user, make sure the 'Anonymous' box is checked. Do not use a password and uncheck 'allow Upload' The initial root directory should be the local directory where your squad.xml is, for example C:\Program Files\OFP\Squad\ The best thing now ist to check these settings with a ftp client. Just connect to your own ip or use 127.0.0.1 (loopback, this IS you machine). You should be able to access the squad files without any Username or password. Now in OFP go to your player settings and edit the address of your squad.xml ftp://SERVER-IP/squad.xml I'm running the Server on my File/Gameserver for the lan in a subdirectory with a username and password - this is as hard as it can get. So my settings are ftp://username:password@server-ip/subdir/squad.xml or for real ftp://LanUser:fragme@192.168.0.1/OFPSquad/squad.xml Hope this can help you. Pollux

After posting a question in the MP-Secrion I come to suggest the support of the XML-File for LAN-Games. With OFP1 you can only see your Squad when being connected to a server (local or remote) hostig the .xml. I'd be glad to see a locally hosted .xml in OFP2 so LAN-Wars could be fought with logos and tags. Pollux

I've already started a local Webserver - it truly is a tiny program: LiteServe, if anyone is interested. Maybe I'll set it up on a dedicated host for the next LAN-party. Thanx anyway!

Hi Folks, I'm wondering whether it is possible to display the Squad's data in a LAN session without being connected to the internet, i.e. using a local ip-address or path. It sure works when I'm running a local webserver, but that seems a little too exaggerated to me. I didn't find any appropriate threads using 'search'. Pollux

Hi Folks, I hope this error has not been posted before, anyways, I did not find it in this thread... When I tried to install the ECP_DR_Addons_Installer.exe I got the following error: Error opening File for writing: "\@ECP\addons\DynamicRange.pbo" Hit Abort ...bla bla... I am running the GOTY Edition with Beta 1.95. Â ECP is installed correctly, the paths are correct too. There are no restrictions for writing or Free-space problems. I got it working when I installed .PBOs by hand so I think it is an Installer-Issue. If you want, I'd be glad to help you out with my system Information (Registry, Path entries etc.) And THANX for the big effort and time! Pollux
