[WIP] CorePatch: config patch for ArmA 2 OA

Recommended Posts

good work on those fixes and lil improvements , glad even my old snippets are of use ...

---------- Post added at 16:34 ---------- Previous post was at 14:48 ----------

this is very theoretical: WHEN and IF there is chance we ""could"" and ""may"" patch this into OA officially, is there list of all authors / content involved ?

Thank you all! Very appreciated!

@Dwarden: I keep a list containing all authors involved and I can give it to you if necessary. It is even present a simple list, inside the readme.txt, at the bottom, of the addon.

- Added correct dialogs for "Transport" and "Supply Drop" support mission of BIS SOM Module (dialogs were deactivated!):

I've added the correctly entry for those dialogs.

Now CorePatch add correct dialogs (for the entire SOM Module) even for TK faction if used as synced unit to SOM Module.

For other faction, if used as synced unit to SOM Module, like RU, CZ and others there still so many changes to do to add correct dialogs. Now this will be implemented in future version of CorePatch cause now I'm focusing on resolving other severe bugs of ArmA 2 OA.

- Improved CAS support mission of SOM Module:

- Fixed "ca\weapons\lasertgt.p3d: No geometry and no visual shape" RPT entry.

Now Aircraft can lock and hit any given targets, even buildings.

BIS SOM Module was very bugged. It continues to have some little bugs (especially regarding the dialogues) but nothing so important or "mission breaking".

I will surely continue to improve SOM Module in future patch but now I'm focusing on fixing other bugs on remaining ArmA 2 OA modules that are high priority at this time.

Cheers,

Did you come down from scripting heaven? It almost seems like you fixed stuff both the DEV's and other scripting pro's could not in many years of this games existence. Just brilliant & two thumbs up. Hope you soon can make a new official ArmA2 patch out of this!

My question is if your skills would be available for other homemade mods and there many flaws. I have got halve a dozen broken chains in the DAFmod (Dutch Armed Forces) that will not solve themselves or are immune to my swear words. I will keep trying but i am not a good coder/scripter at all and i think naming each bug in my topic will not make people very interested in helping. So please consider spending a few days outside of the ArmA2 "box"?

Nooo! Do not distract Goliath with your David tactics.

Seriously thanks a million for all your hard work.

BTW thanks for your Medevac script.

I'm playing RCMW's incredible 100 Days campaign and it really brings home the fragility of life.

Thank you guys!

Thanks for your support! I'm only trying to support, as best as I can, a good game.

@larsiano: for now I'm focusing only on ArmA 2 OA. When the CorePatch project will be at a good point, I will be happy to help anyone who needs it :D

A newer version (1.0.0.16) is available on first post:

- Fixed many(!) errors of BIS Warfare Module:

The errors list is so long that I prefer to link the list that OpusFmSPol provided me: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0enxjfld79jsod1/Warfare%20Module%20Errors%20List.pdf?dl=0

- Fixed SP Mission "War Welcome":

Also here the list of errors is very long!!

I have to thank OpusFmSPol that provided me the very good errors list of BIS Warfare Module. With it in my hands I have fixed all the errors in less than half a time!!

Thank you OpusFmSPol!!

I think that all major errors (essentially referring to the "Undefined variable.." errors) of ArmA 2 OA 1.63 are fixed. In CorePatch, now, there are more than 100 fixes!

All BIS Modules are fixed (there are some missing dialogs on SOM Module that I will surely fix).

All the bootcamp missions (both from A2 and A2OA) are fixed (no .rpt errors).

Now it is possible to play for hours without continuously receiving that annoying "Undefined variable.." errors.

Future plans:

Now I will focus on fixing remaining BIS Original mission and campaign.

Surely I will further investigate on more "Undefined variable.." errors, if any.

As my secondary objective, I will try to fix all the "ca\dubbing....." errors.

...but my primary objective, now, is to close as many bugs as I can that I find in the CCP project bug tracker on DevHeaven!

Wish me good luck! :rolleyes:

Regards

In these days I'm trying to fix all the SP missions of ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 OA. To accomplish this, I'm playing all the SP mission one by one and I've noticed that with CorePatch activated, all the SP missions I've played are different (in a better way) from the same played without CorePatch. I don't know if this is only a placebo effect. Can anyone confirm this?

Cheers,

goliath86

Can't say for others, but I had better frames and way less momentary frame locks which seemed to promote smoother movement. That was my perception.

And so many fewer messages on screen (playing with -showScreenErrors).

Thank you again Goliath, loving your work.

A newer version (1.0.0.17) is available on first post:

- Fixed BIS SP Mission "Trial By Fire"

Fixed many "Undefined variable.." errors

- Fixed BIS SP Mission "Eye For Eye"

Fixed many "Undefined variable.." errors

- Fixed CCP bug Nr. 70342

Now Su-25 has the "GSh302" as weapon with the "250Rnd_30mm_GSh302" magazine

and

Mi24_P has the "GSh302K" as weapon and with the "750Rnd_30mm_GSh302" magazine

- Fixed CCP bug Nr. 68220

Now the M4A1_RCO_GL, G36a, G36K rifles of ArmA 2 have the option to switch between the scope and the reflex sight as their OA counterpart

Obviously I have to thank all the contributor of CCP for their suggestions and reporting!

This is the last update of CorePatch before Christmas.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone! See you on 2015! :yay:
