Probably works in perfect world, probably not too well and long in OFP scene. I've seen that in one certain... let's say Nordic OFP site, people just used to vote negative because of certain person's personality - not the content of posts. Similar behaviour (let's call it "hunting") is nowadays less often seen on this forum... If you know what I mean, if not then nevermind. About post count and custom titles I have to agree with you. Useless überscheiße.

WOW! If there are sharks with lasers, then we need penguins with jetpacks and polar bears with chain guns too. Good job bois!!! ADAM & BD FTW!

You mean like G85 style? With similar organisation it might become really nice compilation, also giving the contributing teams enough room for their own projects. Hmmmmm...

Ummm sorry to say you're wrong. It is GrimErazer & co who are working on that "Lapland War" project. It is told to be island and campaign using units/stuff from FDF Mod and Inv 44. That also means it is only for OFP - not Arma. That explains why it was posted in the 'ArmA - Addons & Mods: Discussion' thread then... It was actually moved to Arma A&M:D from Off-topic.

Well M/62 is sort of essential stuff, so it will be in sooner or later.

No, just like the rest of OFP mods, FDF Mod does not work on Armed Assault without some rebuilding by mod dev team. And after all, "direct conversion" isn't probably the best way, some of our graphics need a little upgrading...

Oh Adam please, wasn't that going to be our mod team's biggest surprise? PS. We need modding tools soon, please.

Yup, very good idea! Own channel for dead ones would be so great. Maybe even option to prevent dead from communicating with living ones (spooky! Of course we can do it in old way and alt-tab to IRC...

And perhaps a few more press demos to totally random people who have the skill to register a domain name and put up a CMS... (sorry, couldn't help myself there) Exactly, that seems to be the current trend. But I don't mind if ArmA finally hits the shelves before Santa's revenge days.

Sorry for going OT here, but what the hell has Islam got to do with all of this? Indeed. Quite racist expression And the civilians still suffering from internal chaos...

DirectPlay is/was part of Microsoft's DirectX. In case of OFP, DirectPlay allows the use of OFP's built-in voice communication system. About possible differences in performance, I don't know. I've been fine with DP server for years now. It works good enough. Of course sockets is the choice for non-windows server platforms. I also think that both DP and sockets use UDP

I don't know how useful these are for OFP modders but maybe worth of bookmarking anyway:

Looks wonderful! Keep up the good work!

Wow Gotta test this one NOW.

Slightly offtopic maybe but: Kala, do you have information about role of Robinson helos in EDF (recon?) and what sort of - if any - armament they are equipped with? Good luck with EAF project!

Yup. I did some testing too. When trying to get a "random placement" with all its range inside the forest, it always starts at middle. But when the placement range has open terrain, then it works like it should. Maybe it can't find a place for unit(s) or something. The Boat test: Looks like the range doesn't work in open waters, so same like with forest. But when the range has some flat open land inside it, boat will start there. Tested with both plain vanilla OFP and FDFMOD and with different islands (Desert Island, Everon, Kolgujev, Suursaari). Didn't notice any difference between mods or islands. Strange... Â

Please don't get this offensive or so, but are you trying to walk through houses? I bet you can walk through any OFP building when conditions are favourable and you try hard and long enough. Well, I tried that myself and yes I could walk through one brownish fish hut lookalike building. Took a little time to find "the right spot" but after that I could just walk through. Other buildings I tried, didn't give any result of wall breaking. But to be honest, I don't spend time running against buildings when playing, I spend my time more often avoiding the hot heavy metal from Urals meeting my poor virtual soldier. In case you like to discuss about these "building problems" more precisely or have some solutions for them, feel free to PM us (mail/ICQ/MSN works too). Aaaah slightly off-topic, sorry sorry Edge: I want to say this in public too, but it is nice to see Suursaari finally "done" and released. Long time project anyway, it's over two years, but is it over three years? manhunter09: This one is quite realistic presentation of Suursaari island, with buildings placed as they were before WWII. It explains the "emptiness", it was just a island in middle of sea with not too many people. Btw. with little imagination player operated takeoffs should be possible with propeller planes...

You are missing the right people to play with. Most servers have password set due to players who can't behave or act as a part of team. I recommend you to try those before mentioned CiA co-ops tonight. Surely fun and teamplay oriented. Read more detailed instructions from their thread. Of course there are other alternatives available too. Some of them (like CiA) have fixed time of week when they play, but most games are set-up spontaneously in chat rooms.

Thanks for games last night people! It was pretty fun and relaxing, expect those disconnections and bungee jumping from hovering helos. Ahh the joy of defending our own Teboil fuel station... See you next time

Excellent as always with BWMod stuff!

Mod folder is named finmod like it has to be?

Linux dedicated server? Hotfix for Linux server only related to FDFww_w.pbo Well it's not a FDF Mod release without any bugs  It should be pretty easy to fix. Get this file (viksi.zip) and extract it to your server directory. It has directory structure included in archive, so it should create fdfww_conf directory and one file (wounds.hpp) inside it. Hope it does the trick

Nice job! Just beware of those muskrats in Limburg

Finally it's here! Good job SFP guys!
