small problem

[Tim Pink]

Hi

When u start a mission and it has the black screen saying "get ready" and the date and time how do you change it to say something else?

Thanx

You have to do this in the briefing with the briefing.html, or maybe a similar file.  There is a tool with a wizard that lets you do stuff like this (this included) on this site called the Operation Flashpoint Mission Assistant.  I think that's the name, but I may be wrong.  It will guide you through briefing.html, inet.sqs, and one other, I think.  

 8)This tool is very handy and saves you a lot of time.

very close gadolinite, but not perfect;

the file you need to use for that is called: description.ext
and the syntax to change it is:

onLoadMission=your_text_goes_here

The time and date comes up automatically as far as i remember

Chris Death is right.     There are tutes on description.ext in the Ed Depot, and the Tutorial Mission has a template for you to copy.

If you want to get rid of the intro time, use

onLoadIntroTime = false
