    Opf user mission creating competition...

    Two! With the swedish notebook. Especially the "kör" or whatever it said. Cool! If you remove the swedish text I would've said three but keep it on, it's really cool. Now all we need is a dalahäst too and we're done. Now for the hard part, 1 and 2, the places. Pic 2 is definatley Everon, I can tell you that. Pic 1 is a bit harder... I can't see it... I can open up the mission editor but that would be cheating... Hmmm... Le Port? Yea. Gotta be Le Port.

    Opf engine based photography 3 -no pics > 100kb

    This is just something I did when I was playing with setpos, nothing serious:

    This is a pic I took, no addons used, quite a bit photoshopped. It got my mission packs (still under development) name on it, and if you can figure out what it means you win something I've not yet decided.

    Higgens turn around

    This is a bug in OFP AI. I'd suggest giving them a boost of good ol' setvelocity and see if that works. Mmmmm, setvelocity, colours, beautiful colours!

    Operation manhunt? (guba's escaped!)

    I'd say replay the mission from scratch, steal the Hind, blow the SCUD up really fast. Then follow the long northern road untill your gunner reports and incoming UAZ. Parajump out, take position in the middle of the road. Nail the driver, the two guards and run up to Guba. Mission complete.

    Flashpoint celebrities

    Most guys that I can think about has been mentioned here but I miss three names: LCD - Scripting guru and one of the coolest guys I've met. Where is he now? Macguba - Just read 10 threads he has posted in at OFPEC and you understand. Sui - The trilogy: Airborn, Facile Ground, The Black Gap. And finally me for finally bringing my arse down here at official forums instead of chewing the fat all the time at OFPEC.

    What are the best flying/piloting missions?

    The best I've played (I belive) is Apache Assault by Charlie Howarth: http://www.ofpec.com/missions/mission_detail.php?ID=938

    Aternative strategies

    I think I lost around 10-15 guys in resi campaign. And yes, I play "realisticly", and if I lost half my squad, well, shit happens. My only serious big casulty I had in the campaign was in the mission where you have to stop that convoy on north Nogova that goes through the little dirt road and with Tasmainian Devil dying at the end. I don't know if it was a bug (more likley) or they spotted me but the convoy started to mess around as OFP AI do sometimes when they drive. They ran just past my satchels and everything so I had to take 'em out with my (t)rusty RPG and AI AT soldiers. Since that took a while longer than I planned and I picked an ambush spot far away from the recommended it ended up with me getting my squad slaughtered by the reinforcements. 3+me guys survived. A favorite "noob" tactic is of course on those maps in resi campaign which is on the airfield. First one you bring a few AA guys (to take down any Hinds in air) and 1 that carry some RPG for you and you attack along the ridge on the west side. 2nd time (last mission) you do the same thing just without buddies. If Mr. Troska took the same way out as he took in I the poor little country Nogova didn't have to make that memorial statue.

    Your most embarrassing moments in of

    I was betaing this mission over at OFPEC right? And 3 other betaers there told the author that the mission was waaaaay too easy. When I downloaded it I couldn't complete it untill after 1-1Ë hours and it was one of them short 5 min missions. Of course I had to keep my reputation so I didn't mention anything. EDIT: Oh right, and the CTI thing too. I was the CO and on my way driving this MHQ or wtf it's called to the 2nd base spot. It was a bradley. Somehow I thought the bradley was amphibius or wtf it's called. You know when it floats in water right? So I decided to take a short cut. Crash, bam, and 10 ppl going crazy. Woops.
