Editor Problem
« on: 18 Sep 2002, 01:40:48 »
I have Installed the latest editor 1.11 but in the folder it says 1.02 I have downloaded it from several sites and its always the same.
The probelm is when I put the file in the Addons folder nothing happens it did work before but I took it out because of some errors with an old mission but now I want to use it it won't work. I have even re-Installed OFP and the only addon I put in was the 1.11 editor pbo.
I can get the old ones to work with no problems but I dont want to start another mission with old stuff.

Help please.

Well I don't know the answer to this but I can relate my own experience which may, or may not, help.

Gunslingers last addon was called EditorUpgrade102.pbo

Kegety's 1.11 was called EditorUpdate102.pbo

Since I have a split OFP personality - 1.46/Res - I switch which one is in my addons folder:   Gunslingers if I'm running 1.46 and Kegety's if I'm running Res.   I haven't used either in my mission editing (at least not deliberately) though I have used them to play other people's missions.     I have never run OFP with the wrong editor in the addons folder (so far... but then its only a matter of time.)

I don't know if what I'm doing is helpful or even sensible, but I haven't had any problems.   Kegety's readme did suggest that you shouldn't have both in your addons folder at the same time because it might cause conflicts.    I think I downloaded Kegety's from here and somewhere it said it was only compatible with Res, hence the cunning plan mentioned above.

Well thanks for replying, I did a clean Install to Resistance and only put the Kegety's 1.11 editorupdate in no other Addons and still nothing what really gets me is it did work in the past. I just don't get it .

 thanks anyway

Did you put the editor update under "operation flashpoint\addons" or did you put it under "operation flashpoint\res\addons"?

You should put in it the old addons folder, the first one i mentioned.  If it is in the res\addons folder it loads the editor update before the o.pbo and causes a conflict.

I tried it in both addon folders one at a time that wouldn't work either.
I have a dual boot system so I installed it to the other system and it works now.

 Windows don't you just love it.

 Thanks.
