I'm sure I'm not the only person here who thinks this is one of the best soldier sims out there, I love the fact that realinsm plays such an important part in the game making it very challanging and enjoyable. Anyway here's the games very first thread for all to talk about.

Scripts and triggers really confuse me on the ditor, and some tutorials I've looked at don't really explain how they work that well. I think I'll stick to downloading other peoples missions for the time being though.

Scripts? you wha? me thinks i'll have to look around, it would be damn intresting to know how to make them, although I've never played an online match with this game, don't see how thats going to change, Gameplay's servers are always busy.

You can put castles and houses down, but you need to download them first. The problem I have with the editor is the scripts you have to write to get things moving in the game. Getting units to move from A to B is easy enough, but to end a mission at a certain point is bloody hard. As for making missions in Gamespy well I haven't heard of it, but I'll check it out.

The mission editor looks weird, also you can make them on Gamespy can't you?
i'd like to make my own, i'd build castles n stuff, loads of machine guns and HELICOPTERS! loads of em! t'would be lots of fun.

hhmm, can you put anything you want in your own missions? or is what I sdaid completly impossible? :(

I just downloaded the mission now as well as all the cars you need to race in. I think I'm going to start to make my own missions soon, I just need to find a good tutorial to get me started.

Well I finally got the sounds back in the game after reinstalling it. Which means it must have been something other than the 1.46 patch which I presumed was the cause. Anyway all that matters is I can get back to playing this cool game.
