Small problem, Gunslingers ed 1 to kegetys
« on: 17 Sep 2002, 14:11:00 »
I have a small problem :'(, I had finished a mission just when i was about to start uploading it for review, I discovered that Kegetys editor upgrade  1.11  was released which worked with resistance without the problems of earlier gunslinger upgrades. The problem is that my mission used Gunslingers editor upgrade 1 ( 102 was missing some of the things I needed) and did use resistance.

Well ok i thought i'll delet all the stuff the orig editor upgrade added which would get it to work without, which i did but it still says missing objects?? hmm i thought i must have missed something so over a few days i systematically deleted things but even with everything wiped down to say triggers it still says missing objects on loading the mission. This is extremely frustrating since its a good mission. Map reviewers now send it back to me saying i have to convert to kegetys (or i guess try to play it with kegetys not installing the addon i say it uses and therefore get the object error) and wont even review it. But i've spent days trying and cant get it to just use Kegetys it simply wont work without the orig even with everything gone.  please PLEASE anyone have any idea whats going on here?.  

Also Kegetys readme file states

Also note that all missions that are made with the old editor
upgrade lack the required CfgAddons part because of the wrong made CfgPatches part in Gunslingers original addon. Because of this, all old missions that use the addon need to be previewed and re-saved with the OFP Resistance editor in order to get them working.

i think this is refering to gunslingers 102 update not 1, and doing this doesnt work anyway since it wont load any map objects and so previewing it (i have to add  a player since nothings on the map) and then saving only saves nothing.

Hey Redguy!

hmmmm... this problem sucks!

I would suggest opening the mission.sqm file (located in the ...programfiles/operationflashpoint/users/username/missions/missionname) then look at the beginning and delete all the "editor addons" or anything related.. Any that it needs to keep will be replaced when you preview it in the mission editor the next time..   :-*

Hope that works!   ::)
