eh... it's hard to see unless you're in a room with no windows (or at midnight :p) but yea, I was on the other side of the island but I guess he got killed in mid-air and his 'chute dragged him out to sea :D

mr. Thomm needs to be introduced to a 2 hour coop mission -- no respawn

you mission 3 end trigger works fine; I can't actually play the mission (bloody 550 mhz) but I blew up all the enemy with triggers and it finished... most likely a single soldier is running from you or some junk, common fix to this is to set the allowfleeing command to 0 for each soldier so they'll run through their waypoints at all costs... I think :\ on to Mission 4...

my bud took this in one of our private games tonight... I just thought it looked funny

actually it's just a camera activated by radio alpha and setacctime 0.01 activated by radio bravo... got the chopper into position, radio bravo, fire, radio alpha, screenshot! hehe the zoom is just a filter in photoshop... I had to overlay some stuff to make the tank & missile clear, and do a little brushing to the flame trail but not really much work if you are used to PS

perhaps deleting individual kill score and only leaving team objective score would be better

did anyone mention it would be cool if OFP could do more than one event at the same time; fire multiple bullets without "reloading" between them so we could have realistic shotguns I'm getting tired of the M203... let's sling a remington under there!

sounds great Inq's loop sounds like it should work </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> #Loop ?ForceAlt:Heli setpos [getpos Heli select 0,getpos Heli select 1, Z] ~0.01 goto "Loop" <span id='postcolor'> notice that if you remove line ?ForceAlt:Heli setpos [getpos Heli select 0,getpos Heli select 1, Z] then the script doesn't do anything in other words, if not ForceAlt (aka ForceAlt = false), then the loop does nothing in your dialog setup can you make a button(s) which will set ForceAlt to True/False? also, I might suggest having Z as a variable (ie _fixalt, so the line would be like setpos [getpos Heli select 0,getpos Heli select 1, _fixalt]) which could be defined when ForceAlt is set to True, Â Â ie. click of True button somehow (been a while since I've played with dialogs )execs: </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> _fixalt = getpos dronename select 2; ForceAlt = true; exit <span id='postcolor'> that way when forced altitude is enabled, it will store the present altitude into the variable... etc etc, you seem pretty smart so I'm gonna get back at my homework good luck I never post in these good ol' forums; I'm just a watcher/info taker, but hey, boredom pushes man to new limits!

If I open up OFP using the original exec, OPERATIONFLASHPOINT.EXE, it displays version 1.75 up top if I create a mission now, will someone with 1.46 be able to play it??

roger, thanks

you haven't placed "all" 63 units you've placed all 63 groups the game will handle 12 units per group, with 63 groups per side.. that's 756 units per side solution to your problem? group up some of them (instead of having 5 guys sitting around alone, put them in a group of 2 and a group of 3, maybe) it'll open up a lot of slots, plus AI will probably be "smarter" if included with a group... magically creating units and having them follow waypoints is, a pain in the rear ;\

Lone: Chris simply copy/pasted a section from the Command Reference Manual it's a scripting topic...

eeeeexcellent... *sets to work on reconnaissance pictures dialogue system* (the briefing's 200 pixel wide stuff doesn't cut it... now I can have some full screen recon pics! thanks bn880

*blushes* uh... let's say playera and playerb get an addaction ... 'createdialog "dialoguesarecool1" ' .. if playera uses the action, will it just play the dlg for playera? or for both.. is "createdialog" activating-player-specific, or a general command executed for all... *blushes again* thanks!

I also tend to learn better with guides... but in actuality, I gave myself a challenge and worked towards it until I succeeded. The production possibilities are endless with Operation Flashpoint. so find something you want to do do what you can if something doesn't work, toy around for another solution if you get pissed off, come post here for one of the genuine know-it-alls to help you! (they've helped me a lot...) it's how I learned to do what I can do... which is quite expansive, however often not the most efficient methods still working on "code reduction" methods good luck

anyone gots a list of all the buildings in Resistance? I'm looking for a list I can use to put a couple things in... like http://ofpcinematic.operation-flashpoint.de/downloa....ide.zip this guide, but including the new island's content! thanks

For some reason the Notes section of my briefing absolutely ignores any attempt I make to modify the font style  it'll display links, line breaks etc. just not different heading codes... if anyone want'sa read the following... it's kinda "messy"... </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE"> <html> <head><title>Briefing</title></head> <body> <h2><a name="Main"></a></h2> <p>On the mission I may be encountering a few small groups of soldiers... if I can kill them quickly and without notice, no one'll sound the alarm.

I've tried 'em it just totally ignores any <h#> commands for that one section... ahh well, thanks anyways, I'll just live with the standard-briefing-style-text

nevermind, after sitting and thinking for a minute I've utilized "m203muzzle"... just wait until he fires it, wait until he reloads then add another grenade

Hopefully this'll be a pretty simple question... I've tried using the Ammo command in the script myself many times, but it doesn't appear like it's gonna work... Basically, I want to add a mortar to a guy's inventory whenever he shoots one off (?playera ammo "mortar" == 2:playera addmagazine "mortar") but it uses "m16" for both mortar count and M16 ammo count... I suppose because you have to reload the mortar into the M16... Â any ideas? Any ways to count his inventory, not what's "in the gun"? if neccessary(or if it's possible), I'm definitely partial to M203's Thanks

I've seen the titletext command used where stacks text lines over top of one another, so as to allow all of it to fit on the screen... what needs to be done for this? thanks
