any dedicated organized battle yet?
darkdexter posted a topic in IRON FRONT: LIBERATION 1944 - GENERAL
so just the titles said, is there an organized group for this game sort of like United Operation from Arma 2 that do organize battles? I know it is kinda early but hey if you know a clan or just a group that do teamwork then please do let us know. -
Just do what the ww4 mod did to some of their units, they made some of them already scripted to have High dispersion, for example their Insurgent units have HD, make sense right since they are not really trained soldiers. The mod is perfect if the battle can last longer,the AI doesn't really know how to take cover so most of the times they are shooting each other in open ground so i thought adding HD script will make it better. ,but of course adding HD will make them ran out of ammo fast so increase the ammo mags as well? lol im asking too much aren't I =)

Just suggestion : Add a High Dispersion in the game logics. I love the overall immersion of the mod but im not liking how the AI are very very accurate accurate even in long distances. I like my battles to be long and immersible but i cant enjoy it when i get shot too quickly. BTW i love what you did on the ammo and fuel trucks, they have that big plume of explosion and then several secondary explosions simulating the ammo popping and exploding. GJ!

dynamic mission request
darkdexter replied to darkdexter's topic in OFP : MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
the AI doesnt have to do a mission, someone can just make it seems like they did a mission. For example Papa Bear asked you to extract team alpha after a raid on an enemy compound (for example: Houdan), then as you fly to the Mission area there will be a trigger that will make Houdan in a destroyed state, such one building is on fire, surroundings are smoking, littered with enemy bodies and destroyed vehicles. That way it makes us players think that there were actually a firefight before. Then as we returned to base and report the successful extraction, the map will reset and load another scenario >>> Drop an engineer to this location so it can fix a broken vehicle therefore the convoy can continue on >>> Paradrop a recon squad to this isolated location >>> Medivac this injured soldier...>>> Transport a supply to this FOB >>? Strike a suspected insurgent leader's house >>> extract a captured prisoner >>> All this are achievable just like how the CAT DYnamic Afghanistan mission where you try recon a downed friendly helicopter and rescue any survivor -
just wondering,other than DMA, anyone here thought of making another dynamic missions which is solely for helicopter mission base? If i knew how to make Dynamic missions id make one where you can fly a transport helicopters and just insert and extract troops in/and out of the battlefield... seems boring to some but in large scale multiplayer games( such as Project Reality) i usually just fly helicopters and transport fellow team members wherever they want to go. i thought it would be cool to do this in OFP at least in single player/campaign but just like DMA..

yeah but in CoC your the forward observer requesting fire mission. What i want is your the artillery guy manning the artillery itself and putting coordinates? you know what i mean? here is an example, im not sure if allowed to post links to other games but here it is just for the example as you can see, im looking for addons or mods where you are able to man the mortar itself and do fire mission indirectly with nothing but the map and the right coordinates given.

In the multiplayer CTI missions, you can buy a mortar. When you uses it , you can input a map grid(ex: Map Grid Da21) and it will automatically aim and you just click to fire. I am just wondering if there is an addon/script that is the same thing so i can use it in mission editor? That way i can make missions where you command a mortar while a simulated radio from AI in the battlefield will give fire mission coordinates ( ex: Target grid Ea21) It doesnt have to be mortar,it can be any kind of artillery too that a player can man and uses map grids for indirect and direct fire. So far , most artillery addons out there are more like a tank where you have to use the telescopic sight but indirect fire isn't possible. I know CoC but it seems it is more like an "infantry requesting arty" based addon than "be the actual artillery guy who is giving fire support" addon...

This is really a good mod, especially with FFUR AI. Man it feels good to to send in a squad to flank a town while Team A is giving a fire power support and you just sit nearby and watch the firefight unfold. Or send in a DAS close air support before you begin a massive charge. This will make Dynamic missions and CTI game a real blast. Come to think of it, someone should make a dynamic mission for this game in a CTI style. I had ideas for replenishing your own forces. For example.. When your team A successfully captured Montignac but took a lot of casualty, you can buy a new reinforcement, this reinforcement will spawn in a main base somewhere loaded in a truck and that truck will literally drive to Montignac. That truck will instantly replenish the squad manpower,firearms and heath. Then the truck will makes its way back to main base and disappear until next time you ask for reinforcement. To make it more dynamic, you can make a 5 man enemy squad that will spawn randomly all over the map with a premade way point that could ambush this "reinforcement" trucks. it doesn't have to be trucks, it could also be a helicopter supplier for faster response. Same goes for the tanks, you can buy they a gas,repair or supply trucks in mainbase and send them in to replenish them tanks. I know there are scripts out there that can already do this, it just needs to be implemented on this awesome mod.

lol now i am interested what is that jeep in ur screenshot Incubus? Can i have it? =)

hi,does anybody still ahve the complete pack of this http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=62389&highlight=samoth&page=3 If not then i am just really interested on the voice replacement pack which make speech better and AI faster to response without completely removing the voice. The Silence addons which removes the Ai voice for faster AI movement just bores me.

I reinstalled the ffur 2008 edition in the Arma: Cold War Assault directory (/Program Files/Bohemia Interactive/Arma:Cold War Assault) I opened the ffur folder to open the Window Batch File named Intall_win2k_XP. i think i have to open that to install some of the added effects. Now the problem is i get this error Error: ..\Res\DTA\HTWL\Data.pbo not found! I tried it with the no_htwl_xp bath file and i get this instead Error \Res\DTA\Data.pbo not found This never happens before in my 1.96 version so im thinking the 1.99 is missing some data.pbo or it is changed to other place that i dont know about?
