Hmm nice but I am sad... and the reason I am sad is because none of the islands work right! The BAS_I2.pbo (the smaller one), when I use that island, it has NO ground textures at all, its all white. And when I click show textures in the editor, OFP crashes.. Now with the big island (BAS_I1.pbo), OFP wont even open! It gives me a really strange error:

Cannot create 3D device:
  Adapter 0 (8500) Fullscreen
  Resolition 1024x768, format X8R8G8B8/D24S8, refresh 75 Hz.
  Error D3DERR_OUTOFVIDEOMEMORY


 :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo: :noo:
What is up w/ that shit? Is it because of the size of the island? Or that my PCs is just to crappy? Or do I have too many addons in my addons folder? Or do I need version 1.92??? This is probably the first report about this (probably even the first error report) and probably no body knows what it is, im really confused here.... I installed everything correctly, I put it into the Res/Addons folder... This is very odd and im very sad because I waited so long and it doesnt work, but the OPFOR pack is just amazing! :thumbsup:

Your comp probably doesn't have enough memory (video memory? swap file space?) for the bas addons + whatever other addons you're using combined with bis' old way of caching addons. Try 1.92 and it should all work perfectly.

Since this is the BAS thread i wanted to congratulate them on the JAM project.  Those m16's and m60's make quite a clatter.  I hope that they take the sound from those m16s and 60s and place them on the bas m4 and m240/m249 variants.  The sounds from JAM really pump me up.  Thanks for reading this.

I'm having som probs aswell. Sometimes when playing it exits the game, I'm back at windows and an Error message comes up.
But other then that I am quite impressed.

i have it all i can manage to say is WOW

i have 1.92 and it has no problems with it, well except for a slight bit of lag, this island gives me less lag than nogova does.....well so far lol

great work guys, if i had loads of money id give it to you ;D but i dont so oh well

For those experiencing memory problems, there are a few things you can try.

1) reduce the land details setting you have ofp running at. This island twice the size of a standard OFP island (meaning 4x the landsurface) so using high detail (or even normal on low spec machines) may take too much memory for your system to handle.

2) use mod folders to organise you addons and run 1.92

3) reduce the number of addons in your folders

4) always check that old versions of addons are not located in different folders (eg JAM)

I'm sure this island is great, but darn 56k!! The screens look great though.

[KyleSarnik]

Ah SelectThis... I think I may have found 2 solutions..

I think I still have the old JAM pbo in my regular addons folder, and the new one on the res/addons folder..

If that doesnt fix anything I will get 1.92, but can anyone post a working link for it? (the one in the news section doesnt work)

I'm sure this island is great, but darn 56k!! The screens look great though.

Heh, heh, I ran my 56k from 11 PM to 5:45 AM to download this. And once it was done, I played around with it for an hour before going to bed . If you don't want to pull all-nighters, then grab a download manager and download it in chunks. It's worth it ;D !

[KyleSarnik]

*searches every OFP site for working link to 1.92*

Any help is much apre.. (i cant spell it but you get the point)
