Getting Explosion scripts working

[p00_p00]

Ok I just DL Ultimate Fire and I dont know what to do

I had a look at some intros to scripting etc, but I was just wondering is it possible to make the script affect the entire game? IE What I mean is, can I implement the script once and the entire game including the campaign missions and any other user missions that i have DL will automatically use the script???


Also for some reason, their are no smoke effects on my game. I chuck a smoke grenade and it just lies on the ground, with no smoke potruding from it. I also DL the Lynx SMoke generator, and when I press the attack key, i hear the noise of smoke being ejected but i only see the clear blue sky and no smoke whatsoever.

So is smoke and fire not included in the original OpFlash IE (unable to use straight out of the box), and need scripts?

Also can anyone tell me which are the best scripts to use??? How to use them and If i can make them a permanent part of the game without adding them in each time I want to use it?

Thx fellez and any help is appreciated.

I had this happen and it freaked me out!  

What I did was search The Avon Lady's FAQ (http://www.theavonlady.org/theofpfaq/)  and found this:

"From OFP's main menu, click on OPTIONS and then on VIDEO SETTINGS. Make sure that  CLOUDLETS is enabled"

This should also prevent you from seeing explosions.    

Thanks to The Avon Lady for her great webpage!  (saved me countless hours of banging my head on the keyboard)   ;D

Cheers Mate

I owe ya one

So that means I dont need scripts rite???

But I liked the Ultimate fire script - was realistic!!!!
But can I still implement it so all game files, campaign, multi n Single missions use the script?

Glad to help!  

You can use fire scripts as much as you want!  (what's stopping you?)    

But can I still implement it so all game files, campaign, multi n Single missions use the script?

If you don't know much about scripting... no...  Not yet..  Wait for the ECP to come out and you'll have all the game-enhancing scripts you want applied throughout every campaign and mission!
