Naguals delta campaign probs

[Ixian]

Has anyone encountered problems with Naguals campaign for BAS delta units?

Im on like the 22nd or 26 mission called Seek + assault. Big long mission. After completing and went to the beach extraction point and there was no boat or helo. I ran around all over the area on the beach seeing if there was a trigger and nothing. So now i can't proceed on.

Also noticed if i would send a guy to rearm at the ammo crate in woods. He wouldnt come back or respond to commands. He would just stand near crate.

Moving to user missions

[Nagual]

Thanks for the report Ixian, and bug confirmed. The end triggers of that mission were completely broken during the update.
For the time being here is a fixed version, i didn't change any file names so you can just replace the old pbo with the new one, it won't affect your campaign progress. http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
(is in rar format for smaller size)
Delta Ops (http://www.concept-5.com/ballistic/downloads/BAS_DERA/DeltaOps_1.22_B.rar)

[Ixian]

It's not working. I had my spot saved near the extraction area. Perhaps I have to revert and do the mission from start again?

[Nagual]

yeah, you will have to restart that mission. The save towards the end would be based on the old sqm, so reverting/restarting would load the new one.
By not affecting the campaign progress i meant it wont affect where you are up to in the campaign.
And about ammo crates, im not sure what would cause that, as they are just normal crates.

[Ixian]

Thanks, finished the campaign. wow. Great job cant wait to play more of your work.

[_WTF_onslaught]

also for the Hostage rescue mission where you rescue two resistance guys...

If you happen to try and orbit round the town, you can get too close to the extraction trigger, and the mission completes as though it was succesful. The hostages dont get rescued at all (which was just as well, as I was having a hell of a time rescuing both of them)

Also occasionaly on a "resume" campaign mission, I would get all my dead squadmates back.. Possibly just an OFP bug tho.

[theavonlady]

Nagual, please revise the campaign's version number, at least in the file name and README, whenever you make even the slightest update to the campaign.

Does anyone have a working mirror of this campaign? BAS' homepage link is dead

EDIT: Someone should really modify the links so that they flash bright fricking red and explode every few seconds to draw my attention

Here&#39;s one but it might not be the latest corrected version:

http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif I got stuck in the mission where you have to escape prison. I got away there with the map and destroyed 2 T-72&#39;s a BMP, the helo and all troops around the &#39;prison&#39;. When does it says that I escaped prison?

I rescued the civilians at the fuel station, that trigger seems to work. Also finding the &#39;papers&#39; in the jeep, that trigger works fine too. I get to ED20 and find the man sitting on the chair, but it doesn&#39;t say "mission complete".

Anyone else got the same problem? I want to continue and finish the campaign .....

If you&#39;re really stuck, search The FAQ (http://www.theavonlady.org/theofpfaq/) for "cheats".

[joempie]

Thanx Avon, it should help me futher in the campaign, although I prefer to play without cheats.

Cheers&#33;

[Nagual]

joempie, i just had a look through that mission, looks like its the jeep that end the mission, it needs to be taken to vets house.

Onslaught, things like that end mission early trigger are the campaign showing its age, there are some pretty old mission design "holes" in there, there&#39;s alot of little things that could still be done to it. The getting dead men back doesnt sound good though. I&#39;ve never heard of that bug before, it might be a ofp bug, or maybe something changed (as campaign is based on 1.75)
And hehe, that is prolly hardest mission in the whole campaign, in sp i can only do it by having my sniper targeting the outdoors hostage area while on hold fire, while i sneak up thru bushes to the house. Then raid the house with a masterkey while sniper takes out other guards. Can be all over in few secs (once raid starts). http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

[Ixian]

Ya that mission was hard took me like 30 tries after I was set up inside the town lol.

I killed the the guy next to bush, house, and the officers walking. Then I killed the 3 guys in the street (1 buy jeep). Then i had my whole team circle around to take out the hostage guards on the left and i ran and took out the inside guards. Took some forever but I finally got it.

[joempie]

Nagual, I tried to move the jeep, but somehow it didn&#39;t move an inch it only said that the papers were still under the seat.

[ale2999]

Nagual I am on that mission after undercover, I think it is called extraction or rescue, sometin like that. Anyways that mission where u have to stop the courier before he tells ur position, but as soon as I start the mission, my body is either dead on the ground, or in the car, but in both cases it says mission incomplete in like 3 seconds from the beginning of the map.

Sounds like it should say you destroyed the prison, rather than escaped from it. http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[joempie]

If you put it that way..... http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Nagual]

Joempie, it sounds like the jeep got shot up.

Avon, if i update the campaign again, i will make diff version number in the readme and main overview.

Ale2999, it sounds like you died or came close to death at the very end of the previous mission, maybe right at the very end (during a cutscne or something). When the next mission loads your status, it would count you as dead.
During the civ missions, and between mission 5+6, you dont get automatically healed between missions. So, eg, if you get your arms shot out in mission 13, they will stay out for mission 14. Though there are some med tents around. As the civ missions take place within a 24 hr timeframe, it seemed sensible to make it that way.

[Jonstyle]

Nagual, are there any other ( than the BAS missions and the Delta Ops campaign) missions or campaigns available that you have made? I&#39;m sure I would love them http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[Shack]

What ale2999 said happens to me too, after killing the two blokes at the end, running em over or shooting them, it says mission complete and the next mission starts with a cutscene of your Delta bloke either asleep / dead in a car or on the ground, then the mission starts, and the target is about 3Kilometres away, within seconds the mission ends in failure. If you click continue it shows a cutscene of you capturing a resistance bloke then shooting him, but throws you back to the main menu after. I hope theres a way around this cause I&#39;ve loved this campaign so far, and it just seems a bugger not to be able to complete it.

Use the "CAMPAIGN" cheat (search The FAQ (http://www.theavonlady.org/theofpfaq/) for "cheats").

[ale2999]

I was totally healthy, I believe maybe, but maybe a bullet so there must be some error in the script. I dont feel like using the cheat cuz the next mission looks really promising from the briefing http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif . well I am gonna do the previous mission now without getting hit and we&#39;ll c

I just tried that for the sake of it, the cheat works, but it doesn&#39;t have the intended effect really, as you then start the next mission as a corpse, yet you can still drive your sports car, which is quite amusing in its own right http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
Anyway Im gonna revert to an earlier mission and do it without getting hit, I&#39;ll tell ye if it solves it.

[ale2999]

I replayed that mission again, I didnt get hurt becuz I used satchels to kill every1 in town (lol I flattened it, 2 civs died too http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif ) and I used 2 bullets for thos resistance fighters wayting 4 me. i wasnt shot at or anything, yet in the cutscene when the guy was in the car he was first ok but then he went with his head down (do u know when u kill some1 in a car? that position), but he had no blood or anything. After the cutscene, I woul be in my car (able to drive) and 2 seconds later is says mission fail. If I get out of the car before it says mission fail the guy is on the ground dead http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif help please

[Shack]

Nope still same, did previous mission without taking a hit, wonder if its something to do with the mode? I&#39;ve got it on Lone Wolf if thats any help.

[ale2999]

http://www.ale2999.supereva.it/LOL.JPG
that is what I look like both in the mission recovery (before it says mission fail) and tracker. funny thing the game wount end in the tracker mission the guys just stays there on the ground dead lol. sometin wacko. to get to tracker I used the campaign cheat so I lost all my stats http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

[Nagual]

I will have a look into the death thing later tonite, but it is hard to find / fix bugs if i don&#39;t experience those bugs.

Jonstyle you can find a few more of my missions here (http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard301/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=55;t=23630;st=30).

[HK (HunterKiller)]

I&#39;m having the same problem on the mission after you blow up the planes, you get in the boat after killing the pilots at their barracks, then go back cause there&#39;s three more planes arrived, wasn&#39;t even fired upon in the mission (stealth http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif ) and when i start the next one i&#39;m lying there dead and the message "Mission Failed". I really don&#39;t want to skip that mission if i can avoid it, also seeing as how some guys have tried it and been dead in the next mission after then it&#39;s not gonna work anyway.

BUT, very good m8 i like it....

[Nagual]

So far i haven&#39;t found the source of the bug, but will keep looking. If i can&#39;t find / fix it, i will make special version that will use the normal auto heal between missions for the trouble spots, so at the most you will have to revert back a mission to keep going.

[ale2999]

thx m8 I really appreciate as ur campaing is terrific and I am dying from finishing it&#33; http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[Nagual]

Ok here is a special version just for people having trouble with the death thing.
You will have to replay/revert to the problem mission.

What about people who haven&#39;t gotten to that point? Should they preferably download the newer version?

[Nagual]

Its up to them, most people don&#39;t get the death problem. I dont think anyone would really notice any difference if they started on the "S" version, the change was very minimal.

[ale2999]

Thx so much nagual&#33;
