Title: Weird briefing problem
Post by: Krieg on 23 Dec 2009, 17:22:15

I am having this weird briefing problem. Briefing panel (the place where plan, notes, etc. are located) does not show up at all! I have deleted some addons lately, to prevent another addon overload. But I do not think that has to do nothing with my problem. It also might be possible that I have mission overload ( ???), since we are talking about 120 missions.

Edit: Deleted 16 missions, still did not work.

Thanks for assistance,
Krieg

I've no proof for it, but my feeling when this happened to me was that it had been caused by too many Retries.

Try the simplest solution first: quit OFP, reboot your PC and restart OFP.

It that doesn't work, follow Sanctuary's advice (http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=68093): find the \<OFP>\Users\<YourUserName>\ folder

and edit UserInfo.cfg with a text editor, find

Code: [Select]

class MainMap
{
   class Compass
   {
   ...
   };
   class Watch
   {
   ...
   };
   class WalkieTalkie
   {
   ...
   };
   class Notepad
   {
   ...
   };
   class Warrant
   {
   ...
   };
   class GPS
   {
   ...
   };
};
Replace it with

Code: [Select]

class MainMap
{
   class Compass
   {
   inBack=1;
   position[]={0.026000,0.047000,0.200000};
   positionBack[]={0.159541,-0.183261,0.500000};
   };
   class Watch
   {
   inBack=0;
   position[]={0.079000,0.044000,0.210000};
   positionBack[]={0.238000,0.158000,0.525000};
   };
   class WalkieTalkie
   {
   inBack=0;
   position[]={0.095224,-0.033822,0.250000};
   positionBack[]={0.238032,-0.100597,0.625000};
   };
   class Notepad
   {
   inBack=0;
   position[]={-0.190699,-0.134859,0.320000};
   positionBack[]={-0.286651,0.038161,0.800000};
   };
   class Warrant
   {
   inBack=1;
   position[]={0.073000,-0.025000,0.400000};
   positionBack[]={0.368000,0.193000,1.000000};
   };
   class GPS
   {
   inBack=0;
   position[]={0.044570,-0.152814,0.450000};
   positionBack[]={0.000000,0.000000,1.125000};
   };
};

The second one worked perfectly (I tried it first because it is faster to do, my PC, due to OS damage it has suffered, takes at least 5 minutes to reboot)!
Thanks!
