Author Topic: What version of OFP are you using? (Read 5164 times)

Just curious...

Finally carried out a much needed reformat on my HD today, and reinstalled OFP.

But now, looking at it...I'm finding it hard to care to upgrade past 1.45, even though I bought Resistance.

Is it a sign of aging that I don't want to continue the rest of my life concerned with OFP upgrades, that maybe I want to just reach a nice stable point with OFP - and stay there?

Regardless, it prompted me to conduct a straw poll to see what others are using - are most keeping up with every upgrade, or is there a settled level others have found for themselves?

Just asking,

Brian

I've in the same boat mate... I haven't bothered. v1.85 all the way!

1.85.

Always the latest

Messiah · « **Reply #3 on:** 17 Oct 2002, 00:47:21 »

handy thing about resistance is that it upgrades it all the way to 1.75... saves time

1.85

I can't live without the new event handlers and if..then..else constructs.

1.85

A note to editors who have yet to upgrade from 1.75 to 1.85 the new patch removes the "show textures" option in the editor...This is NOT a good thing.

The button is still there for me.

I have 1.85 and that button works fine for me.
However, 1.85 has caused my ping to double in multiplayer, but other than that the thing runs fine.

v1.85 all the way :thumbsup:

if only for the tank fix, stairs fix, and that always fun to experiment with command setvelocity

P.S. showtextures works fine for me too

1.85
I had me 1.0 for sooo long.. there's no turning back now. I just wish I could learn even half of the old stuff before new commands come puoring in

And yah, the textures button is still alive and well.

Strange one the button has reappeared now i have no idea why it didnt show first time round

Archangel Scream · « **Reply #15 on:** 20 Oct 2002, 11:19:09 »

Okay - I'm on 1.85 now

asmodeus · « **Reply #16 on:** 20 Oct 2002, 15:10:54 »

Sadly, I'm on 1.75. :-\

I can't update to 1.85.... Makes my OFP screw up every time....

Hopefully BIS will release a new patch or I'll have to wait until I upgrade my system.. (Think it has something to do with my graphics card)

Anyway, I can't play with all the new commands and toys.. Or BETA test any new missions... :'(

Archangel Scream · « **Reply #17 on:** 20 Oct 2002, 15:29:31 »

Well, my OFP is now quite screwed - BIS addons not found, missions saved from editor not having overview and cutscene scripts ercognised - and heli 30mm aims beyond the target.

Maaan...I think I'm gonna need to go back down to 1.46, were OFP was nice and cosy and worked properly...

RED · « **Reply #18 on:** 20 Oct 2002, 21:48:29 »

I am running OFP 1.85 with no problems, odd.

check the news page - some weird bug in the patch seems to not be able to find files in some cases (luckily not in my case)

Archangel Scream · « **Reply #20 on:** 20 Oct 2002, 23:56:49 »

News??? Whereabouts, please? Is there a solution? Or am I condemned to treat Resistance as a virus?

Archangel Scream · « **Reply #21 on:** 21 Oct 2002, 00:15:34 »

I saw this:

Note which files it says are corrupted or otherwise knackered.

but I don't get that message - verifying Resistance - installed successfully!

Hmmm...

I realise that OFPEC isn't a technical helpdesk, so I would be grateful if anyone could IM or e-mail links to advice on the matter. At the moment reviewing is quite impossible, amongst other things.

Archangel Scream · « **Reply #22 on:** 21 Oct 2002, 23:25:55 »

Fourth reinstall in as many days and I'm figuring the addons error is specific to some older custom-made missions.

The scripting files issue was me being a total [politically incorrect term!]. I forgot that when saving a new version of a mission in the editor, you have to manually copy all the associated scripts into the new folder. Doh!

Time to move on with 1.85...forward, forward...left, forward, right, forward, forward...
