general questions

[HunterKiller]

this is my first thread: how do you complete objectives for example getting somewhere also radioing a chopper for extraction also the size of overview pics also completing a level with an outro win which would be getting somewhere (extraction in chopper)?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Again, look at the tutorials. (editors depot - browse tutorials) Questions like these are very basic and are almost certainly in a tutorial. But I'll make it easier for you this time   dunno what you really want to accomplish with the 1st question, but radio chopper is very easy:

Create a chopper and give it 1 waypoint (on top of him if you dont want him to move anywhere). Create a trigger (f3 or select it above) and synchronize it (f5) with the waypoint. In the trigger, at None, select Radio Alpha if you want to radio alpha. At text, put Call in chopper, or whatever.  Then, give the chopper another waypoint where you want him to move and voilá! In-game you will be able to radio alpha and let the chopper move on.

For outro, select mission at right side of screen and choose outro.

For overview pics, just browse the forums, millions of threads about that.

Also, don't forget to put your editor to Advanced (upper-right corner of the screen). This will make things much easier!

***EDIT***

Don't think so, Armstrong  ;D

Whoa whoa whoa

First things first

Welcome to the forums![/b]

Secondly, read the sticky thread at the top ofthis forum.

Thirdly, you need to spend some time in the Editors Depot.  (Link at the top of this page.)   The tutorials you need to read are:-

• Macguba's guide to mission editing for beginners (he wrote modestly)
• OFPEC Guide: Making missions by snYpir
• How to use Objectives and init.sqs by snYpir
• How to put jpgs in your briefings and overviews by fishion
• OFPEC helicopter tutorial by tflarson

                                                                                 Then search the FAQ and the forum.    

                                                                                 If you get stuck, come back and ask by all means.   :)


                                                                                 Edit:  you may both have beaten me to it :o but MY welcome is the  8)est because it is understated and friendly. ::)

                                                                                 Edit Edit:  what's the code for that moving thing, Flapje?
