Mystery Addon
« on: 06 Jul 2004, 04:45:31 »
I have just completed building my first mission in the editor and whilst i was checking over the files, i noticed that my mission uses icp_iraq addon.

As far as i knew, i hadn't used anything other than original ofp units in the mission.

Where is this file from and what units use it.  I have gone through all the units on the map and they are all east or west - no iraq units. I only have a couple of BMP's and a shilka - they are all east.

The only thing it might be is an object but how do i find out? If i remove the addon it wont load the mission so i cant see whats missing.

There are no search returns for icp_iraq here or on BIS.

Delete the addon and open you missiom.sqm up in notepad and delete the addon from the required addons bit.

Code: [Select]
addOns[]={};

addOnsAuto[]={};

That should do it, it's probably an addon you selected by mistake. The mission editor remembers and addon selected, even if you delete them from your mission.

I've sorted it now.

I un-PBO'd the addon found the class of the item, searched through the mission.sqm changed it to an east soldier, deleted the autoaddon entry etc and voila!

It turns out the ICP_iraq addon changes the east machine gunner to a different one.

Problem solved

Also, if you open up the Flashpoint.rpt in notepad, ans search for the name, it tells you what PBO it is in..
