Doh!!! Not sure how, but I suppose I forgot to install v11. I checked and v10 is installed. Damn!

Ok, I'll install v11, delete all the stuff I need to and jump to the missions that I had a problem with first.

I could have sworn that I installed v11, but it sure says v10.

Sorry,

Bug Alert? Snake, I recently started the new version of Ranger Path, and came across the following situations, (bugs?): RANGER NO COMMS: Even though you have added then necessary satchel charges to this mission, the comm center cannot be destroyed. I laid 3 satchels on 3 different tries and could ne...

Reacher

Hacker, Is it just the blue messages? Or also other text messages? Do you have text messages turned off? Some do turn off the text messages and use voice only I guess to save puter resources. Also, with each message it will have the very familiar sound of "breaking squelch". It's the sound when a mi...

Reacher

Thanks, Snake. Do you recommend a complete deleting of previously played campaign? Like was necessary in the PMC Ranger Campaign?

Reacher

Reacher

Hacker, yeah, there are some no-brainers in the mix, no doubt. Just enjoy them while you can... ;) I was ready to give up the campaign due to some lackluster missions that didn't seem to be getting any better. As the campain progresses, the missions go from being No-brainers, to kick-ass tough. Ther...

Reacher

Reacher I quoted you from the Weapons / Gear topic since it was going bit offtopic. Yeah, ya gotta watch me, I tend to do that sometimes :-[ Were the scud missions OK with the ammo, I mean did you had enough LAW's or was there some "convenient" russian ammoboxes with satchels laying around (sorry I...

Reacher

But do you mean I should give a vehicle for the player to store that stuff then? Nah, the more I think about it, that would be a dumb idea and basically ruin at least those 3 missions. You are warned ahead of time to conserve ammo and not be shooting enemy unless fired upon. So, really that idea wo...

Reacher

That above weapon / gear list means that in the briefing when you select the GEAR tab, you can equip your squad as you please. That would be great, and more realistic! Sounds kind of interesting, but I'd believe the large NATO forces wont need to scavenge weapons, they have enough them in supply (g...

Reacher

In Retrospect that was a wonderful suggestion, Avon Lady! And, Snake accepted the challenge and I'm happy to say that some of the best, if not THE best missions of the PMC Fury campaign take place.... where else? Nogova! What I liked best was, Snake used parts of Nogova that I don't believe Resistan...

Reacher

Oh Damn! I forgot the HK silenced! Doh!

How could I forget that little gem?

Reacher

Reacher

Snake, During certain missions, you would put out ammo crates with a lot of good stuff in them. Mines, satchels, rockets, ammo and occassionally even LAW launchers, etc. You also put out some different rifles, but never G36's, Steyr Augs or M21's. My suggestion is going to be to leave the selection ...

Reacher

Bah, debugging test system for me. It is NOT supposed to be in the final mission, sorry about that. No its not. Ok, no problem. But I distinctly remember it showing up at least twice in other missions. The only one I remember for sure is the Pilot Rescue Mission where you have the "Locator" that as...

Reacher

Snake, regarding the BMP's not being agressive. I don't think that's really a big issue here. I forgot to add that those hidden machine gun placements were damn tough to knock out. So that pretty much balanced things out. I wouldn't worry about the BMP's, as they really don't play much of a roll in ...

Reacher

***** Sort of a SPOILER!!! ***** Read at your own risk. ;) Well, I finally completed all (god knows how many there were), the missions in the Fury Campaign. It had to be close to 200 missions just with the missions added after Fury Part 1. In the final mission, "Freedom", I discovered some glaring p...

Reacher

Snake, don't tell me that I'm the first one to get to that final cutscene? Well, Houston, we have a problem. :) Snake, you liked it so much that you made it repeat endlessly! Yup, when it finishes, instead of it taking you back to the OFP Main menu, it just repeats itself. I had to use Cont-Alt-Dele...

Reacher

Hehe I'm other way around now. I've been doing the infantry campaign stuff for so long, that some Tank, Helicopter campaign is quite interesting challenge ;) Hmm I dont recall having that as eliminating enemy resources considering the situation on Nogova (dont want to give any spoilers). Would you ...

Reacher

I actually haven't even made it off of Everon yet. I'm somewhere in the 50s. It seems that the "interesting" missions are getting closer together... probably a reflection of your increased skill level as you gained experience. Do you plan to make the campaign JAM compatible? Somebody mentioned some...

Reacher

Trust me I'll add weapon selection. PMC Ranger Path and PMC NAM 1965 which are my latest work uses gear/weapon selection and so will be PMC Fury in the future. That is great news, Snake. When I first started with Fury, (your addition to the original Fury Campaign), I wasn't a real fan of pure infan...

Reacher

Kurayami, I happen to agree with most, if not all you said. I have no idea where I am as far as the number of missions completed or left to complete. All I know is I'm on Nogova, and have been for quite some time. I assume this is the last island of the campaign. You were dead on about the "filler m...

Reacher

Very good observations and suggestions, Raptor. Back a few months ago, I predicted that the PMC Ranger Path campaign "could" become one of the best campaigns to be released for OFP. I still believe that is possible. So I do agree that realism needs to be considered at every opportunity. Good points,...

Bug Report: Mission Name: Party Night and Distant Glow Neither mission will end. Both missions take place near the big bridge. If I remember correctly, missions around this bridge have been plagued with bugs. Also, I believe it is Distant Glow, the soldiers will not completely cross the bridge. I tr...

Reacher

It's been a while since I've run the Ranger mission, but if I remember correctly, I did the following and it helped capture the officer: 1. Put the LAW soldiers on "hold fire". (they want to blow up the UAV. 2. Put the machine gunners on "hold fire". (too much firepower.) 3. Put the rest of the...

Net Walker: It is becoming more obvious that BAS add-ons are much more advanced than previous add-ons, (or so it seems.) Not sure what the connection is, but some of their add-ons require more of your computer resources. (I have nothing yet to document that.) I had a similar problem and removed a bu...

Bug Report - Nogova New Year (I believe this is mission #167 in the new section of Fury missions, (starting with #62 I believe). This is supposed to be an airial/tank asswhupping to the Russians while us grunts get to watch. In truth, the view is great and the 2 west choppers do a decent job until t...

Reacher

I thought it might have something to do with your add-ons. I suspect I had the same problem, but just figured I had too many add-ons in the folder, so I removed some. I probably removed an old version of an add-on that was also sharing the folder and didn't realize it, but it worked. They do get tri...

Reacher

Unfortunately, Avon Lady, I would say you pressed the Retry button by mistake. And as you probably well know, that's not difficult to do. Just get that mouse just the least bit off course and you'll select the icon right next to the one you wanted. Several times, I've selected "Load", only to have m...

Reacher

If it were me, I would stop right where you are, delete everything and reload the Campaign (download the file once again, even.) You don't have to start over, simply use the "end Mission" cheat on the missions you've completed. Try the one that you've had problems with once again. Make sure you look...

Reacher

Beta Test Update I have no idea how many missions I've run so far in this campaign, but it must be close to 70 probably more! What I have noticed is once the action shifted to Nogova, the missions have become much more challenging and frankly, tough as hell. I am noticing far fewer bugs which is als...

Reacher

Snake, I misspoke on an earlier post. I should have said "You'll lose one soldier, (the medic), the rest of the campaign." The earlier bug where soldiers died mysteriously was corrected by you a couple of versions ago. Sorry if I scared you. I just didn't proof read my post good enough. I didn't mea...

Reacher

Yes. You're sent in with a squad to rescue a down chopper crew.

So, needless to say, our brave medic gets killed right off the bat, leaving you not only without a medic, but one soldier the rest of the campaign. That's not good.

Reacher

Reacher

No. He won't stop for a HALT command either. Once he's dispatched, he's under the Hypocratic Oath to tend to the ill. ::) Hmmm, well that won't do... ??? I'm trying to recall that mission. Is it a pilot rescue mission? I haven't had a chance to run the latest version of the Ranger campaign as I've ...

Reacher

Avon Lady,

Will the medic respond to a "return to formation" command?

PROBLEM SOLVED! 8)

My add-on's folder must have had too much stuff in it. I removed several add-ons I wasn't using and put them in a new folder called "add-on2"

I then reinstalled the new files, (JAM included), and the campaign works just fine.

One thing I discovered on another attempt to load the addons. I found that I had 2 of the BAS files, (older versions), in my OFP Addons. They were quite smaller than the new ones, so I overwrote them. I tried again and the same thing occurred. "Unable to memory map Res/addons/o.pbo So I removed all ...

Reacher

Snake, had a major problem with the new campaign version you just released. I downloaded the add-on files as instructed, placing them in the Res add-on folder. When I started the game, the video shot me back to the desktop with the error message, "Unable to memory map o.pbo" So, I went back and chec...

Reacher

Snake, found a couple more problem areas that you might wish to address: Mission: Beach Broom - Something is kicking me back to the desktop. No other mission I've played of any of your campaigns does this. It seemed to occur when the first BMP is heading up the road to the lighthouse... (I think) An...

Reacher

Welcome back, Snake...

I'm going to try and find that MH-60 L/K download and replay the campaign.

Still working on the other one... (man it's a long ass campaign!)

Reacher

Reacher

Snake, when you finally decide to come off vacation... ;) take a look at mission Op Liberty. Not only is this an extremely difficult mission, (ok with that), but the lag is terrible. You introduce at least 12 T-72's and 5 or 6 more BMP's right in the middle of a major firefight with infantry. The la...

Reacher

Snake, from a difficultly level, that mission is one tough mission, without the arty.

I suppose you could add another BMP or T72, but the mission doesn't need it, (in my opinion).

To me, it's one of the best missions in the campaign.

Reacher

Reacher

Wow, reduced is putting it mildly! :) I just played the mission yesterday when I was bored with some other stuff I was doing... (Like fighting my way through the America's Army bugs for their 1.90 version.), and I noticed NO artillery whatsover! I played it once before after the last beta revision a...
