Working working working Today my christmas hollydays started, the horror of getting all christmas presents together is over- if you do need to buy presents don´t drive with your car if your´re living in a major city, i nearly went mad searching for a parking lot and getting to where i wanted to. Do remember that the soundpack now available has to be seen as Beta, because it has some issues as most inofficial addons. There will be quite some improvements in the final, in addition to new sounds. Im working on delivering the final package (that will have another name than CCIłAudioSFX) before christmas, 24.12.01 that is.

But without functionality more useless  ships are not appreciated, i would instead prefer further finetuning, bugfixes and other additions/ improvements that really affect gameplay.  (Edited by Satchel at 3:49 am on Dec. 15, 2001)

Here is a small fix for those having trouble hearing the new sounds of the CCIłAudioSFX pakage at all. This problem was caused by an character in the .pbo file name and config.cpp, the ł doesn´t seem to work on all systems, thus invalidating all references from the config.cpp to the audiofile container. To install and fix this issue simply overwrite the existing config.cpp with this one, and rename the CCIłAudioSFX.pbo in your addons folder to CCI3AudioSFX.pbo. Should work now. Remember the project is still Beta. Download fix (Edited by Satchel at 3:36 am on Dec. 15, 2001)

As a last resort, if simulating a functional hydraulic ramp is to difficult, it could be handled a similar way it´s like with the APC´s and IFV´s for now, there too is no ramp movement, but you can embark and disembark, the same way it should be possible for landing crafts, just implementing them for eyecandy doesn´t make much sense. (Edited by Satchel at 2:14 am on Dec. 15, 2001)

Aw, cmon, are you just pulling our strings Erex? How about a functional LST (ramp up/down with possibility to carry vehicles), as the model is already in there. Would the helicopter/ VTOL carriers feature LCAC´s or work together ith the LST to bring troops ashore, or be just eyecandy and unfunctional like the LST?

lol, when i post t.a.c.t.i.c.a.l. (without the dots and quotation marks), the forum code interpretes and changes it into "Mapping Tool"l", cool thingy. So whenever you read Mapping Tool"l in my posts, you know i originally wrote t.a.c.t.i.c.a.l.

I wish they would add those real Mapping Tool"l NATO map symbols, as it can be seen in VBS-1 to the junior style handdrawing map markings we have now.

Ok people, on one hand i´m pretty much pissed at BIS simply closing the initial thread without having a cause to do so or giving any statement on that - on the other hand i´m not making the soundmod for BIS but for every single one of you, the community, and i won´t let you stand in the rain with unfinished beta phase gear. So work will continue, even if BIS puts in the most insane encryption on files in the next patch, i honestly don´t care anymore because some talented head will hopefully be able crack it. If it shouldn´t be cracked i will continue to play OFP 1.30, even if patch 2.00 would be nearing it´s completion- if BIS doesn´t reconsider to provide an open editable config.bin and shifts the security measures over to the main Flashpoint.exe, that should be responsible for checking the users setup in Multiplayer games. As for cheating concerns with an open config.cpp, most games i know of and own can be edited in their aspects; sounds, graphics, weapon parameters and although this is possible, by no means its easier to cheat in Multiplayer because it´s a server thing with weapon.cfg´s a.e., should this be your main concern...only Flashpoint is this insanely restrictive. If i would edit Ghost Recon weapon parameters in the respective open- and mod friendly config files, it wouldn´t work out in multiplayer when logging in as client, simple as that. So why doesn´t Flashpoint work the same way by giving at least an unencryptet config.bin, i simply can´t understand that. BIS doesn´t support this effort as i understand, so be it, but instead of closing down threads and denying information on modding aspects or releasing further tools for editing, they should preferably concentrate on doing their part, that is first and foremost fixing the game. My intentions are not to screw up OFP, or perverting the concept behind the game, but to give it a new aspect that helps keeping it alive, because i´m interested in OFP. Thank you all for your support and feedback so far, it´s appreciated. P.S.: New MP3´s of new weapon sounds later this day, along with the config.cpp fix for those people having problems installing the Beta mod. (Edited by Satchel at 1:58 pm on Dec. 14, 2001)

Why has the thread been closed? 1) it was in the correct forum section 2) it didn´t contain anything insulting, nor anything conflicting with the forum rules. Waiting for an explanation, because there is absolutely no reason for doing such thing!

Anyway, at least accept the fact that I have tested OFP without and while using your sound addon (by replacing the 'bin' directory with the original OFP one) and have found that beyond any doubt, your sound addon (and jim's sound addon, too, if it helps) cause the problem of not being able to knock over stone walls, and being able to drive through them in a tank like they weren't even there. You cannot make them fall over any way at all, which is a right pain in the arse if you want to use them as a roof for a bunker. Anyway, I will be polite from now on, it just seemed to me as if you were being just a tad aggressive towards me. Ignore my opinion of your sound mod, and take not of the bugs that it is causing which is mainly what I was posting about. The thing that I took most offense to was your implication that I simply MUST be using an illegal copy of OFP because your mod caused me a problem, also the way you worded it. There has been a long history of OFP user mods causing problems in the game, in case you haven't noticed.<span id='postcolor'> Hope we seddled this now, as it´s not easy writing in english and get the things same way across as i would do it in my native language. As for the walls not falling down/ shoot through, seems to be a misunderstanding, as you don´t wrote which walls dont fall down in your first post, so i assumed you were writing about buildings and normal walls, which i´m able to destroy with the soundmod active when shooting at, as well as drive them over. This is why i said that there is no way that your observations are caused by the addon, i tested it even with 4 people in multiplayer and it worked without problems. I can´t find the object "FENCE RockWall", i couldn´t place it with the editor (its not in there), nor did a manual editing of the mission.sqm work out. I´ve tried the following combos: "FENCE RockWall" "FENCE_RockWall" "FENCERockWall" everytime i get an error like "no entry in config.cpp"!

Then try to shoot it with an M1A1 gun or drive through it. You drive right through and also your tank shells will go right through it too Satchel, I don't appreciate you telling me that I have an illegal copy of OFP. That's just not nice. In fact I will take a picture of the box, CD and manual with my webcam if it means you'll drop the lousy attitude (which I severely doubt) and try to fix the bug in your addon Now, after doing the above, uninstall Satchel's sound mod and then once again try shooting the rockwall down, driving into it with tank or setDammage 1 it and hey f**kING presto, it falls right over again. This also applies to Jim's sound mod. I doubt very much that I have FADE, because I doubt there is such a thing as temporary FADE which goes away as soon as you remove your sound mod IN WHICH CASE I WOULD HAVE YOUR MOD TO BLAME FOR TRIGGERING FADE ANYWAY YOU IMBECILE if you are releasing this mod the least you can do is be helpful to those who are trying to install and use it. Might I also add that lots of ppl are complaining about not being able to extract the .rar file since it uses that stupid 'cubed' character in it and I found that I could only extract it using winrar and nothing else anyway I would like to say that Jim's sound mod is better, and I'll go try to find the URL to give to you guys since most people seemed more interested in this one, which I think claims to be more realistic (and might well be) but it just doesn't sound good at all really and its creator is a rude little ass and I would just like to mention in this edit that the walls not falling over when damage is set to 1 etc thing is nothing to do with HW T&L, since I have owned OFP since the 22nd of June and used the same settings (HW T&L on) and have always been able to knock walls down (Edited by GFX707 at 12:42 am on Dec. 13, 2001) <span id='postcolor'> What an angry young man you are, the only one getting totally out of line here is you, do you have any personal problems with me that you couldn´t let out for months or so...that seems to be the case, although i don´t even know you from the forums. I´m german so my english may not be the best to get things across, what you take as "rude" is normal speach for me. My post hasn´t been insulting in any way, it meant what it states in the section you refer too- "Thoughts"-, and was meant to circle out  possibilities, as you didn´t state how and when it actually happened, because your post mainly focused only on how bad the soundmod is in your oppinion  without any constructive input, that´s ok with me, if you don´t like don´t use, but don´t expect someone to help you when all you do is flame attempts. After all i clearly said (and it´s in the readme too) that this is an very early phase of it, meant to get feedback for improvements, because many people asked for a sample. That you extract a .rar file with winrar should be pretty selfexplaining ?!? Many people like the addon, even if it´s not finished and beta as it states, this is why i wanted feedback, preferably of the constructive sort, not bashing- for that you can troll yourself over to offtopic forum, until you get rid of your envious tendencies, i´m really getting to old for this crap .

BIS, more presice Medvidek, has closed the Thread you are refering to down, for unknown reasons without a statement. If this is the way BIS contributes to the time and effort put into such projects by fans and contributions of the community, this is indeed a sad place to be. Instead of appreciating it, they seem to work against it. There are not much active posters remaining on this board, neither in the OFP scene, Servers are hard to find and now BIS scares even it´s former core fans away, i think it can´t get any worse........... I assume this is a clear message from BIS, and my tip of the day will be that soundmods won´t work with the next Flashpoint patch, because the company puts in newer and stronger encryption, to prevent anyone from doing custom addons that only work by modifying a Flashpoint file.....no matter if those addons are good, and working flawlessly. There is no solution offered, e-mails get answered after nearly a month or remain unanswered completely. They seem to have no interest in the mod community, nor in their fanbase, so my interest in OFP ends. I wouldn´t want to believe this, now that i´m myself directly affected by this, i think i just wasn´t realistic enough to see whats going on the whole time. I can understand why some people left the board and OFP, i guess it´s about time to move on. Some of you may think, #### whats the deal at all, a thread closed so what- For me it´s not only the thread closed, it also means that BIS doesn´t support nor even "tolerate" such modifikations. It wouldn´t make much sense to do further working on the mod, cause BIS will probably do everything to prevent it from working with the next OFP patch. If you´re happy playing the BIS addon game, by having to create special missions featuring the mods to see them at all, plenty of fun at doing this, i think it´s nonsense, especially true for multiplayer when there are 100´s of such addons to choose the right one from. On the little servers left for OFP, sometimes you can´t login because they use an addon on the map you don´t have. Hope to catch some of you in IL-2, www.ilyushin2.net , a place where Developers are not counter productive, and mods are highly appreciated and welcomed from the start. over & out Satchel (Edited by Satchel at 9:38 pm on Dec. 12, 2001)

I´ve just read this thread after posting my own on the subject, before we all begin to speculate on this, we should wait on a Statement from BIS or CM. They havn´t shut down subjects on Jim´s soundmod yet, that works the same way by replacing the config.bin, so i am really asking myself whats the point here..........

Hi, since i´m grounded by the doc (got flu), i had much time to spent on my comp and in bed last couple of days. I´m now in phase of completing a Sound improvement mod for OFP- should be finished this evening. This mod will completely replace your existing sound.pbo and features a bunch of improvements, from weapon sounds, to ambience sounds over to vehicle sounds, bullet whizzing sounds, impact sounds, ricochets....., hehe even a ZZ-Top song will be available as radio music in the environment ambience section of the M.E. along with improved Battle ambience sounds (the original OFP radio sound is some circus music), it doesn´t work on the addon principle but is a true soundmod, which is a good thing because you will be able to hear the improved sounds in all missions, campaigns, whatever you play, which wouldn´t work if it´s designed as an addon. The drawback is on the hand, it will be large, 20mb+, however it will be worth the download because the sounds are highly realistic weapon sounds, are of excellent quality and there´s quite a range of new sounds, guess it´s about 50+ new unique sounds. This is where it comes to the problem of webspace, my provider only grants me a tiny 10mb as webspace, but i would need more than twice the amount to upload the mod. So i´m basically looking for free webspace that´s large enough to host the file. (Edited by Satchel at 5:50 pm on Nov. 27, 2001)

We already have jeeps, 3 different types to be exact. Instead i would love to see a 250cc Motocross bike, which we have none of yet, instead of a jeep overkill.

If however, the realistic sounds are made to sound better than unrealistic ones, I would love that even more. (Edited by Unl33t at 7:54 pm on Dec. 12, 2001) <span id='postcolor'> Well, it´s personal taste. It´s very hard to recreate a realistic weapon sounds on the computer, such as they are normally heard from the firers position. Most people simply do a search on the web and take the next best M16 soundsample, don´t make an effort to do backround research on it. In addition, it very much depends on your system setup how a sound actually sounds.....when you are playing on cheap Desktop boxes and an integrated mobo soundcard, the results won´t be very satisfying anyway. You have to know that i have a very small homestudio, because audio is my hobby. Along a Hardware 5 1/2 " synthesizer for the comp, i have studio boxes costing around 170$ each. The sounds were done in Sound Forge 4, with extensive filter use to eliminate background and white noise. I am trying to do realistic sounds of excellent quality (although 22050/ 16bit mono restricts me a bit here), if  you don´t want realistic sounds (because that´s how the weapons you mentioned earlier really do sound M60/PK), Jim´s soundpack would be probably the better choice. The trick is not to make any sounds, but authentic  sounds, so that you can actually sort the sound to the real life weapon. Thats why i still am searching for an AK-74 sound, or video.

It would be best if it´s handled a similar way in the OFP mod cmmunity, to standartise future addons, in addition it´s less confusing as a positive sideeffect and brings up quality results much faster.

It should be possible to override the config.cpp of the addons via the master config.cpp in the /BIN folder, if this shouldn´t work, i will have to redo each addon seperately so they all get different sounds. </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE"> I find the rest to be pretty cool, I really like what you did to the M2 MG’s and the flying plane that sounds extremly tight I’m looking forward to the next release <span id='postcolor'> Thanks , as i wrote this is an very early release to get oppinions, and the final one should be almost perfect then.

Help me! <span id='postcolor'> Have you deleted the original OFP config.bin file in the /BIN folder after you backed it up and put the config.cpp file in instead? Or are both, the config.bin and config.cpp file in your /BIN folder? Also be sure to place the CCIłAudioSFX.pbo in your /addons folder, double check it. If you have followed these steps, it shouldn´t cause problems.
