I'm assuming this is where you meant to put this..? Since it clearly hasn't been reviewed yet, this is where it belongs (in the beta testing section).

Also, you might want to rename it to something more appropriate that "Single Mission", such as the mission's name, and whether it's SP or MP.

Wolfrug out.

[Walter_E_Kurtz]

I have unlocked the topic despite not knowing why it was locked in the first place.

Package
 - the mission is not pbo'd and contains an older version as a pbo within the mission folder.
 - "Enemy Tank Recycling" might make more sense as a title.

Overview
 - image "10.paa" is not included.
 - like Briefing.html and Briefing.Spanish.html, this can be in multiple languages - if there was any text.

Intro
 - does not play under normal circumstances as addons are listed wrongly. As an Editor Update is required it ought to read:

class Intro
{
   addOns[]=
   {
      "EditorUpdate102"
   };

- alternatively, change the type of unit the "Player" is

Mission
 - text is still in Spanish

Replace entries in triggers and waypoints in the following way:

Code:

hotel sideChat "COMANDO HOTEL A PAPA OSO. ME OYEN... PAPA OSO, ESTAMOS SIENDO FUERTEMENTE ATACADOS POR LOS DE LA FTR. REPITO LOS DE LA FTR NOS ATACAN LA BASE DE EVERON."

Code:

hotel sideChat localize "STR_M10_DIALOG_1"

Code: (Stringtable.csv)

STR_M10_DIALOG_1, "HOTEL COMMAND TO PAPA BEAR.  DO YOU HEAR ME...  PAPA BEAR, WE ARE UNDER HEAVY ATTACK BY THE FTR.  I REPEAT THE FTR ARE ATTACKING OUR EVERON BASE." , "COMANDO HOTEL A PAPA OSO. ME OYEN... PAPA OSO, ESTAMOS SIENDO FUERTEMENTE ATACADOS POR LOS DE LA FTR. REPITO LOS DE LA FTR NOS ATACAN LA BASE DE EVERON."

 - it is hard to tell friendly tanks from those of the enemy, so I suggest you have friendly ones carry US flags:
Place one flagpole for each tank ( Empty -> Objects -> Flag)
Give each a name: flag1, flag2 & flag3
Enter the following in the Init line of each flag:
      this setFlagTexture ""usa_vlajka.pac""; this setFlagOwner sold1      <--- for flag1
      this setFlagTexture ""usa_vlajka.pac""; this setFlagOwner sold1_1   <--- for flag2
      this setFlagTexture ""usa_vlajka.pac""; this setFlagOwner sold1_2   <--- for flag3

[Aldo15]

I had not noticed that. Fixed try and put the flags
the allied tank.

Also try to change the image and place messages in English Radio

We know that this is the code we use for radio. sideChat hotel localize "STR_M10_DIALOG_1." What is the code for messages that tell the soldiers "

Thanks for playing my mission

[Walter_E_Kurtz]

Tested version 1.1

1. There are some more lines of text that need translating:

Code: (Stringtable.csv)

STR_M10_INTRO_1, "Halt! Out of the trucks. Now!" , "¡Alto!... Bajansen de los camiones. ¡Ahora!"

STR_M10_TEXT, "Capt. Miren... There are the bad guys. Attack!" , "Cap: Miren... Son esos malditos. ¡Ataquen!"

In scripts:

Code:

titletext [ localize "STR_M10_INTRO_1" , "plain down"]

In triggers / sensors:
(see attached picture) - as you have done for the Markers: @STR_M10_TEXT


2. Other Issues

 - Brackets need closing in description.ext

class CfgIdentities
{

class Omar
   {
...
   };
   class Diaz
   {
...
   };
   class Diego
   {
...
   };
   class Ramirez
   {
...
   };

};   <---

 - misspelling in one waypoint

leader palyer sideChat localize ""STR_Rad05""

 - sensor conditions "player distance player >700" are meaningless

 - there is no point in using "player addscore 450" as this is only for multi-player

[Aldo15]

Ok ... will modify these bugs ...

[OFP_f3d3]

Hi man, i tested the mission and this is what i think:

Overview::
I think it does it´s job altough i would prefer a photo taken in the battleground. The description given in the overview, ithink, it was enough.

Intro::
Just a few cameras pointing at the trucks, and the rebels stoping the trucks but no shootoing or sign of resistance showed by the trucks.

Briefing::
Classic "BIS-Style" giving a description and giving the objectives and no info in the notes section except a summary of the story that may help to understand it.

Mission::
I start in the north of La Riviere and i follow an officer and suddenly.. oops the T55 killed one of my guys.
As soon as i get close enough to the firts contruction in the area, i detect 2 soldiers and i eliminate them.
Later i hear another tank apart from the friendly one, so i hide in a bush behind the house garden to avoid from getting killed and to advance into the city. My tank and enemy tank were both T55 so it was a little difficult to  know who fought against who, but the i saw the flag on the tank (nice detail, helpful to diferenciate them).
As i get closer to the city a see 3 guys at 200 meters, i eliminate 2 of them and suddenly everyone starts running away. The base was poorly defended and the T55 didn´t make anything useful.
Near the trucks, i only found one guy staying prone but completely alone and he looked like "Whats going on?".
Also at the begining of the mission i can´t understand what the message about losing a base on everon was about.

Overall:

Simple searchand destroy mission, but it was lack of danger and difficulty as i could finish it in 3 minutes and in my first attempt, in my opinion you should add mor soldiers in the base with machinguns and some reinforcements to make it more interesting. If yopu do all this, you´ll get a good mission to be played.

[Aldo15]

You can now download the Version 1.3

[Walter_E_Kurtz]

 - update the filenames: Rescue_(1.3).zip and Rescue.Abel.pbo

 - Readme does not say that an Editor Update is required

 - Rogue characters in Stringtable.csv:

STR_V03, "General. We have captured the American trucks, as you commanded. \n Returning to base."
STRM_10b, "Fuel depot, La Pessagne"

 - my point was that Description.ext needed a closing parenthesis at the end of class CfgIdentities. If you are determined to remove the characters, you should also delete the setIdentity commands from Init.sqs

 - squad Yankee should have a plain, Russian-camo T80. At the moment it is a T80 (Resistance) with a green stripe.

 - weapons crates could do with RPG ammo added to them with addMagazineCargo

 - untranslated text in over.sqs. Use localize as before.

titlecut ["MISION CUMPLIDA" , "BLACK OUT" , 7]

[Aldo15]

I updated the mission to version 1.4

squad Yankee should have a plain, Russian-camo T80. At the moment it is a T80 (Resistance) with a green stripe.

I put the T72's with Resistance-camo. Remember United States to use the same tanks

[OFP_f3d3]

Hi Aldo15, i gave a try to the new version and i have to say it´s much better. I really like the credits at the begining but i would add the to an outro(win) to shwo all the credits and just let the intro do its job.
this time i got killed 3 times:
1) a T72 just passed over me, leaving me like a disgusting waffle
2) i entered in the graveyard and one guy saw me, y shooted him and killed him but 3 guys trapped me from behind
3) a Goddanm machinnegunner hidding behinds a hospital tent,.

i have to say that it looks more like abase than before but i still down´t understand the message at the beggining
in wich you say  "HOTEL NO RESPONDE, HEMOS PERDIDO UNA BASE EN EVERON.", i can´t find any relation between this mission and everon or it a good step to make a second mission.
GREAT improvements with the customized spelling. i´m still waiting for those reinforcements i told you before.

great work
ofp_f3d3

[Aldo15]

Hi Ofp_f3d3 thanks your comments. 

but i would add the to an outro(win)

I will try add a Outro-win

i still don't understand the message at the beggining in wich you say  "HOTEL NO RESPONDE, HEMOS PERDIDO UNA BASE EN EVERON.",

I deleted this text. To understand this text, you should play the campaign that I had created. Because the mission gets from a campaign that I had created.

i´m still waiting for those reinforcements i told you before.

I will put some reiforcements out  the village.

gran trabajo
ofp_f3d3

Thanks for playing my mission

[Aldo15]

After a long wait, I've uploaded version 1.5, and from what I've seen have already downloaded

[savedbygrace]

Overview
Corrected the text below and the image is great.

The resistance has taken NATO fuel trucks and it's our duty to bring them back without a scratch

Intro
Was a bit slow and the camera angle of the resistance soldier in the road was shaky. The last truck in the convoy drove out into the pasture and became stuck among trees during the stopped truck scene.

Briefing
Notes corrections below, although I could not understand what you were trying to say at the end. Care to explain?

The bloody guerrilla were not happy with the destruction that we delivered to one of their encampments yesterday. So they ambushed a NATO fuel truck convoy and stole the trucks to slow our offensive. Without fuel, our equipment is useless so we're initiating a plan to retake them. But what they don't know is that we're using T55's that we've captured from them in previous engagements to attack them with.<BR><BR>Leaving the issue, the command relieved we contacted the base, you could hear quiet and happy, and hopefully make things safe.

Plan corrections below

Yesterday Three truckloads of fuel were shipped from La Pessagne to Chapoi.
The guerrillas were smart and knew that they were to fill our tanks, so they decided to take them and kill the drivers. We need those fuel trucks to supply the helicopters and tanks and it's now our duty to bring them back without a scratch. The objective of this mission is to rescue the fuel trucks from La Riviere from the rebels that are guarding them.<BR><BR>We'll start the mission here next to your command.

Objectives..

Take control of <a href="marker:town3"> La Riviere </a>

Make sure the fuel trucks suffer no damage.

Debrief

Good Work. The fuel trucks are safe and we have control of La Riviere.

Stringtable corrections

STR_Rad03, "ALPHA ONE TO PAPA BEAR. THE ENEMY HAS BEEN CLEARED OUT OF LA RIVIERE, AWAITING ORDERS. OVER"
STR_Rad05, "PAPA BEAR THERE'S A PROBLEM, THE FUEL TANKERS ARE DAMAGED. WHAT ARE YOUR ORDERS, OVER"
STR_Rad06, "THERE'S NOT MUCH YOU CAN DO, JUST HELP ANY PEOPLE OUT THAT YOU CAN, OUT
STR_V01, "Capt. Look... There THEY ARE, Attack!"
STR_Ouvo01, "Congratulations Soldier. Thanks to you and your team, the rebels have been kicked out of La Riviere."
STR_Ouvo03, "So you've been promoted to Sergeant. Go to your group."

Mission
This version seemed more balanced than the one before it but still could use some tweaking where firefight balance is concerned. Aside from that, I just let the armor do their battle and then mopped up afterward. The rocks were certainly needed features for this battle; too bad the AI don't know they are there.
Once I managed to get to the trucks, I could see 2 armor pieces and an infantry group in the southwest on the hill, doing nothing but standing around. I took them out and the mission ended. I would definitely recommend having those guys react to the players presence near the trucks.

Overall
It was a short but slightly challenging assault mission that could use a few more tweaks to make it less predictable.

[STiT/LK]

I downloaded this mission and found it quite nice, especially the intro (I don't know why the Resistance soldier was "shaking" though o.O)

I get a strange error message in the beginning:

Code:

setUnitPos "UP" unknown operator

but this does not prevent me from playing. Briefing was a bit confusing, but still understandable. I managed to end the mission in short time, as the tanks seized the town on their own leaving me and my squad almost nothing to do. I would advise to make the mission a little more difficult; nevertheless, it's fun to play.
