First, welcome to OFPEC  :cool2:

Could you specify which missions you downloaded and tried to play?

Oh, it would have been better if you had posted in one of the topics (of the mission you experienced the error with), for now I'll move it to the missions discussion although it doesn't really belong there.

thanks for the welcome!

sorry for posting in the wrong place.

i downloaded both "deep water" and "with extreme prejudice". these are both probably modded missions. do i need to download somethings to make them work properly?

Yep you do.
If you check out the reviews of Deep Water (http://www.ofpec.com/missions_depot/index.php?action=details&id=131&page=0&game=OFP&cat=sp&sort=edid) and With Extreme Prejudice (http://www.ofpec.com/missions_depot/index.php?action=details&id=162&page=0&game=OFP&cat=sp&sort=edid) you will see in the top left right (in red font) links to the required addons for that mission.
Put those in your addons folder or better still make a modfolder.

You'd think I would know my left from my right by now  ::)
