Post by: Ranger on 04 Jan 2003, 01:12:14: This has always been present with OFP, with or without Resistance. As explained many times in the past, the preview mode in the editor by default begins in the Veteran difficulty mode, which by default does not show waypoints for infantry.

You don't actually have to play a single player mission to get the editor into the cadet mode. You just have to start *any* mission--SP or MP--as far as the briefing screen, then abort the mission. Thereafter, the editor will be in cadet mode and you'll be able to see the waypoints.

That sux, I want an button in the editor so you can pick cadet or veteran in preview. There are so many things that doesnÃ‚'t show up in preview, so you have to export it to single player misison, then it doesnÃ‚'t work and you have to delete it, bla bla, etc.
