  1. Why not a "jagged alliance 2" style mod ?

    Something like 10 different mercenary, a private army, and a large set of weapons http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Jagged_Alliance_2

    Lot of this weapons are already present in various weapon pack, like Vilas P85 ..

    The island for a campaign could be Chernarus of course !!

    That's actually a great idea!

    Hm... (Heading off to the editor...)


  2. I guess most features *could* be achieved through missions (PR:BF2 features like Rally Points, restricted special weapons in squads depending on squad size... no clue what the will include in PR:armA2).

    But as they plan to go stand-alone, it will safe them a lot of work if they go the addon-way. And some features could not be realized in missions alone, I guess (suppression effect?).

    D.


  3. Other mission makers could be interested how I solved this strange 'You can not play this mission because it is based on downloaded content that has been deleted: aqu_smine_patch'-Error Message I got after patch 0.99b on Dedicated Servers:

    Since patch 0.99b, the aqu_smine.pbo seems to be needed by other .pbos, but it is not automatically added to the 'addons' array in mission.sqm after re-saving the mission. Furthermore, if you add it manually, it sometimes gets deleted from the array after re.saving.

    So:

    1) Everytime you finish a mission, check if the "aqu_smine_patch" entry is listed in the addons array in your mission.sqm.

    2) If not, add it manually

    3) Then, pack the mission MANUALLY. If you use the 'export to multiplayer missions' button in the editor, chances are that your manual entry will be deleted.

    D.

    On a sidenote: We had to revert to 0.99a, but we had a very nice evening of ~14 player coop with your mod - thanks for that!


  4. currently, I have the (quite serious) problem, that I can't join any dedicated server (no matter what mission) because the server says he is missing the 'aqu_smine_patch' because it has been deleted... But that problem might be on my end too.

    EDIT: I might add that the aqu_smine.pbo is present on both server and client
