i've never tried Halo Jump before.
How do i even get close to the target area.
I did get the plane to land and got off,
BUT how do i get the AI to get off the plane?
I tried "disembark", "eject", "halo jump", and
they still wont get off.
Even with the plane on the ground they still wouldn't get off.

Let me be the first to ~Salute~ you sir.
Keep 'em coming.
Next up? one of the Mid East 'themed' maps?
(or wait for the Pakistan Map expected with Arrowhead)
T'ank u sir.

Looks like a great mission but it keeps crashing on me, possibly because I'm using ACE2?same here.
-
i wont say it's an ACE problem, but after my most recent update i'm seeing soldiers without heads. They behave normally but their heads are simply missing.
(i have no ghoul or undead mods installed, strictly army ops for me)
Video memory perhaps?
anyoneelse ever experienced this?
i'm open to any suggestions for a fix?

You delete the beta folder and install the older version.Do the beta 'patches' change the main Arma2.exe in any way?
i deleted the beta folder all together, in an attempt to go back to a time when life was grand, BUT even with the folder deleted i'm still getting this error on startup, then a CTD:
"Shader not valid (mismatch of exe and data?)"
I guess that means my Arma2.exe is damaged beyond repair ?
(sigh)
-
How do i "ROLL BACK" to previous beta patch?
For fear of double posting:
The game will not even start without the beta, without mods, ...
simply crashes with same error message:
"Shader not valid (mismatch of exe and data?)"
I'm asking before i resort to reinstalling the whole game from scratch.
(hope ya'll feeling my pain)
-
error after installing new beta:
"Shader not valid (mismatch of exe and data?)"
any ideas?
-
getting error messages:
for ID getting "deleted_ibr_isladuala
for GW getting "deleted_ibr_panthera2
i have the latest versions of Both islands:
Panthera 2.6 and ID 1.6
... any suggestions?
i also couldn't find a link to a referenced ID_Dynamic V0.28
i'm still using V0.27
can someone post a direct link in a reply?
Thanx.

i've been waiting for community responses to your 3 contributions, and i am amazed and surprised that there have been NO Feedback to date.(time stamp)
I hate being the first and only, but here goes:
Missions load ok with the removal of the dependency on the caa1 'phantom' files, so that's a Plus.
However, After the mission loads, i cannot assume the role of AI Team/Squad leader, and the AI simply stand around doing Nothing.
Unless, there is something i am missing or need to do ... (which wont surprise me since i'm still learning my way around the game.
The jury is still out ...
-
...*edit - I downloaded 1.4 but am still having trouble getting certain team members to exit the chopper when we reach the drop off points, any ideas?
Thanks
my experience has ALWAYS been only 4 AI survive the landing.
Either all the others never get off the chopper and fly away,
OR they just drop dead right there at the LZ.
I had simply 'assumed' that the mission was just coded to allow a
limited number of AI help.
and YES, i do have the latest version
In any case, i've always accomplished the mission With extensive use of
the Artillery. I Love the mission.

I am grinning my @ss off.
It was that easy huh?
@SICKBOY
Thank you very very much Sir.
You've renewed my faith in the 'community'.
My ~Salute~ Sir.
ps:
now to figure out why the STHUD is not showing up for me (wink, wink)

AND, i found out only today that SickBoy is not 'allowed' to receive private messages :o
To save me some embarassment could someone contact me via private message to give me a hand?
If this request violates any forum rule I hereby withdraw my request and this post. ;)
peace.

Hello!I Updated my 4 Missions all Missions Becomes an English Briefing (coporado helps me).
I hope all Errors in the Maps are solved (Thanks JW Custom).
Fallujah Day - Operation Phantom Fury
Fallujah Night - Operation Phantom Fury
Nordafghanistan Korengal-Tal - Operation Mountain Lion Roars
Nordafghanistan Kunduz-Tal - Operation Enduring Freedom (Razani)
Wait a little bit i tested this 4 Maps with coporado and then i uploaded.
Mike
ARE these missions still dependent on the troublesome 'new' caa1 files?
These flies 'blew up' all previous missions for that map.
May i suggest you that Have JW Customs explain to you how he changed the dependency for his most recent Avagnai mission.
Just a thought.

An error with vilas Addons I guess or a incompabality, nothing you can do about it except creating the missing classes in a second pbo.The cfg is missing the weapon "Vil_Akm" and something of Solid_snake_face.id.
You can add these missing classes to a new config.cpp and create a new pbo, iirc vilas cant help you over this forum as he is (temporarily) banned.
Thanx for the response.
(i'm not gonna even ask how u do all that stuff u suggested, since they dont seem to affect the game i'll just learn to live with the pop ups)
IRIE.

dude what sound mod are you using in the video?!? that shit sounds great!i'll take a stab at the answer ... CSM2
-
help with error messages:
No entry-'bin\config.bin/CfgFaces/Man/Solid_snake_face.id entityType'.
No entry- 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons.Vil_Akm'
They don't seem to affect the missions, but they pop up for EVERY mission i launch. I do Have ALL the Vil weapons and addons installed in my attempts to get rid of the latter error, but still no luck.
Although they are errors i can live with Any help would be appreciated.
~SALUTE~

Mission updated!v1.1
- Removed dependency of mysterious CAA1 files(hopefully)
- Added better sound files
The update worked flawlessly.
Loved the Battlefield noise.
Thanx too for 'forcing' me to try a night mission without NVG.
I didn't think i had it in me.

Some files made to fix issues with Avgani, afghan village etc. They was posted in this thread. I haven't been able to those exact files anywhere, similar files was posted on dev heaven but they doesn't match.i didn't want to be the 'naysayer', but ...
and as a continuation from the problems with Phantom Fury (?) ...
These new files 'blew up' the Map for ALL previous missions i had for Avgani.
When i restored the previous files all was good again.
"illusive" is the only word that comes to mind for Avagani.
There are a number of other less worrisome maps that simulate the MidEast environs: Afghan Village, Rahmadi, Shakar, are 3 that come to mind ...
~SALUTE~

We did find it really difficult...probably because we suck. :)The AI squad usually gets wiped out around the infil HLZ.
For us, the AI are really really good and pretty much wipe us out quickly, especially if we don't make a mad dash into the buildings....
Love the mission though for what we can play of it! :)
My method was to 'crest' the hill at the LZ with my AI Fire Team.
Endure a long range firefight in an attempt to 'thin out' the opposition,
and also to remain close enough to the ammo boxes at the LZ for rearming my team several times. Then careful bound overwatch to get within a block of the HQ. Another standoff fire fight, with me on a nearby roof, to take out the technical, and snipe a few guys Inside the HQ. Then CQB to get at the few remaining 'campers' (smile)
Nice mission indeed.
IRIE.

Your welcome to play along next time CAP plays(see my sig) and then you can judge my shooting skill
for the records:
All was said in jest. I am a 'fan'.

I Love you man! (said in my deepest manly voice)

Hello!I downloaded last Night the latest CAA1-Full-ClassicPlants-YASDLS.
The only difference (to my Folder) are this seven Files, i upload to Rapidshare.
I hope this solve your problems.
http://rapidshare.com/files/367529235/caa1.rar
Regards Mike
my only 'fear' now is- will your 'different' 7 files blow up the map for all the previous missions i have for Avagani?
i'll let y'all know.
and ...
Thanx for sticking with it ... a truely 'community' effort.

Hello!I see you have some troubles with this mission.
I make a Screenshoot from my caa1 Folder.
I hope this help.

Mike
There is one file i spotted that i dont have in my install:
"caa1_r_opxroads"
and it was NOT included in the opx configs.
so where can i at least find that one? ... it could very well be the missing link.
update-
i also found this 5 month old thread at dev-heaven
http://dev-heaven.net/boards/27/topics/2000
The new packed OPX configs seem to have dropped the roads config.
So i surmise that the mission maker might have used an 'older' version
of these files, BUT i could be wrong as usual.
Out of ideas

I Salute you sir!
