Suggestions anyone?- Friday 25 Jan, 19:30 till late- Expert mode- 10+ playersWho's in?=W= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suomikeizari Posted January 21, 2013 at 09:39 AM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 09:39 AM I've been having that thought myself for some time but Im almost never available on weekeds = cant do it, would be very hard to make an event without being there keeping it up myselfWe'll see :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=VG= Wooz2770 Posted January 21, 2013 at 11:10 AM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 11:10 AM I think Charry had some missions ready, don?t know if we can get a hold of him though :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisi123 Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:22 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:22 PM ok so i have some missions for i44 ready. i think those would keep us at least for one night. if you like the idea, just give me a call and i'll do the last test runs for the missions... friday is a good idea, cause i don't have anything to do this time.

whiztler Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:32 PM Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:32 PM i44 is the WW2 conversion right? Don't want to sound cocky, but do you have any missions/ops ready for non-i44 conversion/maps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisi123 Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:45 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:45 PM yap it is!nah don't worry, but have also some non-44. i am ready to make some more, too... no problem for me :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=VG= SavageCDN (Inactive Duty) Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:48 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 01:48 PM We can use MSO for this kind of thing too... come up with an idea or 'mission'... prep beforehand and setup plan, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisi123 Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:01 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:01 PM yeah could do an event with a mix of mso and some of my missions, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiztler Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:07 PM Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:07 PM Sounds great! Have a peek at the Clafghan Map. I don't think it is a map that has been played a lot so there will be something new for everyone :).Let me know what I can do to help (e.g. briefing, strategy, etc)=W= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisi123 Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:11 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:11 PM ok cool. you could help me with the briefing :) maybe before we begin with the mission where everyone is looking at the map we could do some strategy. that give me an idea of doing a mission with different ways to reach the goal. never done that before, but i give it a try lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suomikeizari Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:24 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:24 PM yeah I get you going with that, for example the basic stuff you need to cover with briefing so on and so on, I REALLY think that CO shouldnt be the mission maker because he knows what is going to happend.

whiztler Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:26 PM Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:26 PM Excellent! I don't mind being CO, but I reckon it should be a VG member with Co experience. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisi123 Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:32 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:32 PM therefore i am making missions with severals ways to the goal. so i don't need to be the co Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=VG= SemlerPDX Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:52 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 02:52 PM It is best to have someone other than the mission maker as the leader - in many ways it makes it more fun for all involved.As for the CLAfghan suggestion, if someone goes to make one, I'd like to give them some tips so the AI doesn't bug out during (they hate complex waypoints and have a hard time with certain roads on CLAfghan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=VG= SavageCDN (Inactive Duty) Posted January 21, 2013 at 03:29 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 at 03:29 PM What about Tora Bora instead of Clafghan (runs much better)?If anyone would like some help with making missions please let me know.

whiztler Posted January 22, 2013 at 08:36 AM Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 at 08:36 AM :)What's the latest Charry? Since Friday is around the corner, may I suggest we keep it mean and lean on the dev side. I'll drop you a PM with comm details so we can work this out further.=W= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest ColdNfreeziN Posted January 22, 2013 at 11:36 PM Guest Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 at 11:36 PM Almost done tweaking a mission on Tora Bora should be good to go in a few more days if I get time. I am unsure if i should let you guys play it since it seems no one liked my last mission...haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiztler Posted January 23, 2013 at 02:24 AM Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 at 02:24 AM :) Actually liked your last mission, nice and hard. We just need to get org better :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=VG= Calv Posted January 23, 2013 at 01:10 PM Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 at 01:10 PM ColdNfreeziN LAN_WROTE ...OH sweet! :) well in that case my mission on TB is just about done working on finding out how i can disable or limit IR/Thermal views on the Bradley...oh and did i mention its now at night with no NVG we just have flares? :)I'm sure there is a module that limits the range of NV, haven't tested it with vehicles though.It's possible that it's an ACE module.

chrisi123 Posted January 23, 2013 at 01:54 PM Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 at 01:54 PM yeah we should just lean on the dev side for this weekend :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=VG= SavageCDN (Inactive Duty) Posted January 23, 2013 at 02:18 PM Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 at 02:18 PM Yeah there is an ACE limited NV range module but none that I am aware of for IR/Thermal (unless the limited NV module also affects thermals??)Cold we loved that mission.. just cause we died a lot does not mean it sucks :)OK so if we are having a few people making missions (which is awesome BTW) then I think we need to get some standards down which mission makers can follow. The biggest one being required mods... what I personally don't want to see is 40 different mods each week to download and install. We need to come up with a core VG set of mods and stick to them when making missions. A good place to start would be the mods we use with MSO. Obviously there will exceptions to this rule (like an I44 weekend or something).Any thoughts?? Do you think this is a good idea?Also I'm working on a VG mission template (totally re-doing the one I did last year as it now sucks) which others can use to create missions without having to re-invent the wheel each time. It will not be fancy... it will include a core set of features like:Template for briefing notes, tasks, etcJoin In Progress compatible stuffACE revive and respawn scriptUPSMON scriptGarrison and house patrol scriptsAt it's core will be the F2 Mission Framework.. which I use constantly now.. check the link for a features list:http://ferstaberinde.com/f2/en/index.php?title=Main_Page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
