Thanks for the offer BC.
Okay, here's the update:
A) I thought I got all the bugs out, then I came here and saw the "Hold Fire" bug. That's weird, but it could explain a few things. I changed the savegame point, but I'll go back and check that.
B) The reason I'm not uploading here is because the maximum attachment size allowed is 50kb, and the zip file is 52 kb, and hence over the limit. I kinda forgot that I could put it over in the CoC forums, and will do that for the next version.
C) As far as I know, AI and foliage is a bit of a problem, even for stock OFP; the Ia Drang Valley map with all the vegetation magnifies this effect. My understanding is that SEB NP tries to offset this by making the AI crappy shots at long range. I do know they went through a ton of work on this.
Play this mission enough, and you'll also figure out which plants have hit LODs that don't line up. (Cf. the bamboo of doom)
D) I made the helos put their skids on the for boarding.
E) group shenanigans are in effect. I also made sure to give the SP player the most dramatic view in the helo (in my opinion, of course).
F) I tweaked the cutscenes and reduced the flying camera usage.
G) Radio chatter is still not in, but I have something close to the text ("script") in there. Tell me what you think. If you're inspired and think you can take one of the roles, let me know.
H) Starting at the SF base: yeah, that would be cool, but I'm lazy, and ill-disposed to making the SF base fully operational.
I) "Get In" mortar. I tried an EH on the mortars/MGs to take care of it, but no go. Just follow your leader anyway. besides, those pits could be boobytrapped.
J) I tweaked some of the timings to make the progression of the game "tighter"
K)OBjective Completed now works.
L)Briefing/Notes are fixed.
M)Jonstyle, is the email in your profile current? I thought I sent tit out.
OKay, I'll post to this thread tomorrow when I make sure everything works and put up the (hopefully) final beta over on the CoC forum site (forum.thechainofcommand.net). Thanks again for your help on this.
