General

Can you help me with my addon/mission/ofp problem?

No. Better places to seek help is sites such as OFPEC or
the Official OFP Forums. You will find much better and
faster help from there. I read and post in the official forums often and will
help there whenever I can.

With addon XXX I get a "Cannont memory map" error

This usually happens because of too many installed addons,
buggy video drivers or other memory management problems.
See this thread from the official forums for more information.

Can I use your addon XXX in our mod?

As long as proper credit is given and your mod is free you
are free to do so. Either keep the PBO file unmodified, or
if you need to modify the addon, change all classnames from
it to avoid problems with the original version.

Can I put my addon XXX at my website for download?

Yes, as long as the original readme is included and the
download is free of charge.

I want to change something from addon XXX and release it, is this ok?

Yes, as long as credit for the original work is given,
the addon is free for download and all classnames are
changed so it wont cause problems with the original version.

Winter Nogojev

After installing Winter Nogojev I get a "Cannont memory map" error

This usually happens because of too many installed addons,
buggy video drivers or other memory management problems.
See this thread from the official forums for more information.

After installing Winter Nogojev I get a "addon kegepack_snow requires addon kegmakarov" error

You did not follow the install instructions. Do not install the
KEGepack_snow.pbo file into your addons directory if you do not
have the Russian Weapons Pack installed.

To solve the problem, either remove the KEGepack_snow.pbo file or
download and install the Russian Weapons Pack addon.

I understood there was supposed to be snowing in the island, yet I do not have this. Whats wrong?

To make it snow, the mission you play needs to use the snowing
script included in the addon. If you are making your own mission,
see the readme file for instructions on how to make it snow

When I play winter nogojev missions I get "missing addon KEGssoldierXX" errors

This happens if you have the old Winter Kolgujev addon installed.
Remove it as mentioned in the readme, Winter Nogojev includes
newer versions of units in that addon.

When I play winter nogojev missions I get "missing addon ASHxxxx" errors

This happens if you have the old arctic armour addon by Aaron Ash
installed. Remove it as mentioned in the readme, Winter Nogojev includes
newer versions of those units.

The AI seems to have problems with some roads in Winter Nogojev. How do I fix this?

Its a bug in the addon, and would need a new version to be fixed.
I might fix it someday...

Editor Addon

Do I need to remove Gunslingers editor addon after installing yours?

It is highly recommended to do so to avoid problems.
Gunslingers addon does not work with OFP - Resistance
so you will lose nothing ;)

Alot of things in Gunslingers addon seem to be missing from the editor after installing yours. Whats wrong?

I hide quite many of the things in Gunslingers addon which
were more or less useless to keep the adodn clean and easier to use.
All the old objects can still be used with the CamCreate and CreateVehicle
commands.

It doesnt work! I use Windows 95, 98 or ME.

The installer only works in Windows NT based operating systems
such as Windows 2000 or Windows XP. There's a Windows 9x version
of the install batch file available somewhere which you can use.

Can you change the rain to look better?

The rain effect is hard coded into the OFP engine and cannot be edited.
Only the rain texture is changeable.
