ODS alpha test

Post by Widowmaker »

Tested ODS alpha

Install went smooth

flying the midlle camaign went ok..I flew one OCA strike..and bombed the runway....no resistance at all..

Te_new.tac crashed on me so did instant.cam...yet I guess this is due the alpha status.. Image

however I wanted to give Vietnam a shot
hmmm...f4patch4 gave me this error as I unaplied ODS and aplied Vietnam:

Failed to apply patch Vietnam Theater -- File mismatch. D:\MicroProse\Falcon4\art\campaign\intel\strategy.scf does not match D:\MICROPROSE\FALCON4\F4Patch\vietnam\orig\strategy.scf or D:\MICROPROSE\FALCON4\F4Patch\vietnam\new\strategy.scf.

hmm something is wrong in one of the setups I dunno what as I still dont know shit about F4patch..lol

so I havent flown Vietnam yet..

There is no enemies at this time, air or land.

Those are so small things, didnt want to bother with them yet. Campaign is the big fish.

Thanks I know whats wrong, I have two different set of f4p Orig/ dir files. goddamn dork as I mixed them up.

You can fix this by copying the strategy.scf from Vietnam f4p dir into the \art\campaign\intel\ dir (I think).

This is what I mean by problems for tutorial creating, such a small errors can cause everything to fail.

If you cant make it work, I'll re-check the files and put out small zip fix for you.
