Hi,
I am making an Operation Iraqi Freedom camapign! I am terrible with description.ext stuff though! Would anyone like to help me write a description.ext for my campaign and missions (for weapon selections, ect.)? I have not yet completed all the missions, but I have them all planned out. Now I just have to make them ;D. If anyone also has some mission ideas please post them here! Thanks guys.
-
hmmm......lets see. MIssion plans. Study recent events throughly before making missions ;D
-
like the man said, study. what's wrong with people, they don't want to do any of the work anymore?
a big problem is that the addons just aren't out there.
-
Guys I already have the mission ideas/plans. I was just wondering if anyone wanted me to make certain missions. Also, can someone help me in writing description.ext files? I've read the tutorials, but I just don't understand them. Thanks!
-
didn't I help you with description.ext files earlier. Wait, that wasn't you. Anyways, Study. And phantom, I may be very talented and stuff but you know gentlemen, i'm only 16, most people consider a man to be 18 ;) A prep that plays computer games and builds them, isn't that something :P
But wait, most people in the U.S. are men at this age. Oh ya, how dumb of me. :P
-
Guys I already said: I have my missions for the campaign! I was just wondeering if anyone wanted a specific mission in it(Basra, etc).
one note: through the campaign YOU are INFANTRY ONLY. no pilots, tank crew, etc.
-
Infrantry but with tank support. Basra YES!1 Basra!! But one thing is, if its Basra then you'll have to have British soldiers and tanks because the British took that town, not Americans.
-
I have British infantry (desert) units already ;D. I still have not found a British tank w/ desert camo however...
BMGARCANGEL <Brendan> would you mind helping me write a description.ext for my missions? I currently do not need them, but when I finish all the missions would you mind writing the description.ext files? Thanks (Do you have AIM or Yahoo Messenger? If so can you post them or message me them?)
-
I have yahoo! instant messenging. My screen name is bmgarcangel whats yours.
Buy the way, its easy to use description.ext files. Just copy one from mission to mission and use them as templates.
-
@Brendan
I'm on YM atm. Sign on.
@all
I have a beta version of the first mission in my campaign in the betamissions section of the forums. Tell me what you think.
Note:It is not the final version! It is a really simple version.
-
bmcaecangel, i was referring to hooahman. it seemed like he was asking for ideas. but he's cleared that up.
and i thought that basra would've been an obvious mission choice. what about the aussies at the al asard airfield. there's a desert sas addon out there somewhere. and it'd be awesome
-
@Phantom
I have the SAS (desert) addon. Its real nice. Basra was a mission choice. I was using it as an example. ;)
-
he used desert Malden, why?
-
is it the aussie one, or a brit one.
i've got a damn nice brit one if u want it
-
It's BIB's British SAS I think. I'm sure it's brit though.
I also have som regular brit infantry, paratroopers, etc if you want me to send em to ya? Could u send me the one ur talking about also? (if it isn't a big file send it 2 deltateam8@yahoo.com)Thanks
-
Yes, yes, I want it please. Send it to my email. Check my profile for my yahoo! email addresss and email it there. Don't email it to my MSN one ok Phantom.
Thanks man.

I have the 2 BIB units. :D

@BMGARCANGEL
I have found how to create my own islands ;D!!! Now I will not have to use Desert Malden. I am going to make an island like Iraq.
@all
If anyone would like to help me make the island (putting names of cities, hills, etc.) post here. Thanks
-
I'll scan a map for you
-
I have shaped the island already. I am 1/5 done texturing it. Don't worry about the map. I have a good one on the web I found. The map will have only the major cities (Basra, Baghdad, Tikrit, Mosul, etc). Around 10-12 in all. Go on YM if you see this by 3pm pacific time.
-
Dude, you gota be shitting me. Do you really know how big Baghdad is? Hmm, do you. Its huge ass city. If you created baghdad or any of the other cities it'll be huge. And you'll have to make it look professional too you know.
-
Have you seen any of the Somalia maps? The "Baghdad" won't be as big as the real Baghdad. That would be impossible. I am going to make Baghdad 3x-7x bigger than Montignac. It won't be huge, but enough for my missions.
-
Thats small as hell dude. It won't be realistic you know. You should see the Nogova Lipany city, its the biggest that Bohemia made. But I know others have made
bigger.
-
Ok how big should I make it? After I finish texturing the map I'll go into OFP and look at Lipany. Decide how big Baghdad should be. If you look in WRPEDIT, Baghdad will be around 6x6 cells.
-
you've got the baghdad problem, AND the fact that tikrit and mosul are the opposite side of the country from basra, baghdad is smack dab in the middle. are you gonna have some hugely congested map?
-
thats what i was wondering too. Look, just build Baghdad and the closest city next to it along with a highway. Build a big baghdad taking most of the map up and make it detail. Have the river going through it too. Then people would be impressed. Make different islands for the Basra one.
-
Then I deffinatley need some help...making the maps that is ;)
-
Find a island, download it, if it look professionally done then go to the readme and get the makers email and ask him for help on your island. Anyways dude, like you just begun making islands so don't rush into things ;)
-
That is a good idea BMGARCANGEL. I spent like 2 hours on the map and now when I try to re-open it in wrpedit it says performed an illegal operation >:(. I was even 1/4 way done anyways. I think I'll post a topic in the wrpedit section for help.

-
Thanks a lot Phantom! I'm sure these will help me a lot ;D!
Also: I have a webpage for my campaign on geocities now ;D!
www.geocities.com/deltateam8
It is very blank right now. There is more info on this board than on the website. ;)
-
hooahman, I got some people that can build the most detailed Baghdad island for you. But they're Russian and I can only speak to them through a translator program. You want it and there IM address>?
-
That would be great BMG! I could definatley use their help
-
Hooahman, go to
http://www.operationflashpoint.cz
and go to the island section. Find one island there, download it, and then go to the readme and email the person who made the island. If the island is good that is.
Ask the person to help you out.
Surely you have desert malden right. Ask the people who made that for help ;)
-
why?
they didn't re-model the actual island terrain. just the ground texture and trees and rocks.
-
oh. Damn, ok then get some other help :) ;D 8) :P
-
I may ask the guy who made Trinity Island. I love that island and it is one of the best!
-
Ask him to email me too, I need someone that can build a korean island for my KOREAN WAR MOD 1950 - 1953
-
Brendan,
I e-mail him and gave him ur yahoo e-mail address. Told him about ur mod and gave him a link to ur webpage.
P.S: I liked the page u made by the way! :)
-
I'm still working on it dude, i've changed alot within the last 50 minutes. There is now also a chat room :) :D

This question i am about to ask had nothing to do with this thread, but its too short to make it a whole thread by its self....
Question: Is their a jungle everon that works and is there a very large jungle map out there with huge dense forests. I need this for my campaign that i am making. I just have to little time, making models, guns etc. I would love the help. Cheers :cheers:
-
Shaggy,
No question is too short for a new thread. :)
And we'd rather you create a new thread, than post off-topic in another one.
So please pursue this question in its own new thread, otherwise you run the risk of drawing this thread off-topic and having it locked down.
Thanks.
-
understand noon
-
Noon,
Could you check out my forums? I just want to know if I should change anything about them. You will have to register to see all the boards and everything though 8). To get to the forums go to www.hooahproductions.tk. Then click forums on the left hand side. Thanks
-
DUDE!!!
You are getting OFF TOPIC, stay on TOPIC OR THIS WILL BE LOCKED BY NOON!!! >:(
-
BMG,
I created this topic for my camapign. The real topic was ideas for my campaign, but no one has given me any ideas any ways. So basically this whole topic is off-topic.
-
well, i'm not staying on this topic,
bye
-
So basically this whole topic is off-topic.
Yep.
