Looking for good tutorials + question - Dogmeat - 06-11-2009

Long, long time ago I was doing some missions in editor (nothing that I would like to share thought). I remember some stuff but I forgot a lot also.
If anyone could provide some good tutorials so I could read them and remind myself. I was already searching over google but some good sites are down and I can't find few tutorials that I was reading earlier and they were good. I found some tutorials but they don't really cover some of my issues.

One of my problems is to make units appear when trigger occurs, those units can't teleport from one part of map to other (which would be quite easy solution I guess). Other way to solve my problem is to make gamelogic activate only when trigger is ticked (if that's even possible).

Same answer as always: [b]OFPEC The Editing Center
Still think this is the best OFP resource center, lot of tutorials, scripts and ComRef
If you still miss something try [b]The Official BI Forum (sorry, no sex)  Big Grin

I found very good basic editing guide long time ago but the sites are down nowdays, i guess thats the site dogmeat means.

I posted same kind of topic also to another forums and someone told me that there is really good guide in OFP manual. I have no idea where to find it. If i will find it, i will tell ya

K, can you be more exact on what you are looking for? I might be able to give you a tutorial at OFPEC


Re: Looking for good tutorials + question - lenin - 06-11-2009

I think Make is talking about the Prima's Strategy Guide, included in OFP: Gold Edition (red hammer) as a printed book. I learned the basics to mission editing from that, and I agree that it is excellent for mission making noobs. I have it scanned somewhere if you are interested.

GOTY and RES is equal, only different from RES is you only have to put in 1 serial at install
and your OFPdir is called Operation Flashpoint

Prima's Strategy Guide - Mission Editing from OFP: Gold Edition:

It's "scanned" with a digital camera, but readable nevertheless.


Re: Looking for good tutorials + question - Dogmeat - 06-12-2009

Thanks everyone for knowledge. I am sure it will prove handy.


Re: Looking for good tutorials + question - Make - 06-12-2009

Thank you so much, Lenin. Now i have my mission ready. I have Chris's  OFP script editor and i have briefing now, i have no idea where i should put this briefing.html  ???



Re: Looking for good tutorials + question - Marto - 06-12-2009

It just goes in the mission folder. Hold shift and preview button to view it in the editor...
