  1. If they signed up, electronically or otherwise, then the bidders will be legally bound to pay...it states quite clearly and several times BOX ONLY. Dozy buggers though...lol

  2. A friend of mine works as a network admin and came across this....just superb.

    Actual letter of resignation from an employee at XXXXXX

    Computers, USA, to her boss, who apparently resigned very soon

    afterwards!

    Dear Mr. Baker,

    As a graduate of an institution of higher education, I have a

    few very basic expectations. Chief among these is that my direct

    superiors have an intellect that ranges above the common ground

    squirrel. After your consistent and annoying harassment of my

    co-workers and me during the commission of our duties, I can only

    surmise that

    You are one of the few true genetic wastes of our time.

    Asking me, a network administrator, to explain every little

    nuance of everything I do each time you happen to stroll into my

    Office is not only a waste of time, but also a waste of precious oxygen.

    I

    was hired because I know how to network computer systems, and you were

    apparently hired to provide amusement to myself and other employees,

    who watch you vainly attempt to understand the concept of "cut and

    paste"

    for the hundredth time.

    You will never understand computers. Something as incredibly

    simple as "save as" still gives you too many options. You will also

    never understand why people hate you, but I am going to try and

    explain it to you, even though I am sure this will be just as effective

    as

    telling you what a PC is. Your shiny new iMac has more personality

    than you ever will.

    You walk around the building all day, shiftlessly looking for

    fault in others. You have a sharp dressed useless look about you that

    may have worked for your interview, but now that you actually have

    responsibility, you pawn it off on overworked staff, hoping their

    talent will cover for your glaring ineptitude. In a world of managerial

    evolution, you are the blue-green algae that everyone else eats and

    laughs at. Managers like you are a sad proof of the Dilbert principle.

    Since this situation is unlikely to change without you getting a

    full frontal lobotomy reversal, I am forced to tender my resignation,

    however I have a few parting thoughts.

    1. When someone calls you in reference to employment, it is

    illegal for you to give me a bad recommendation. The most you can say

    to hurt me is "I prefer not to comment." I will have friends randomly

    call you over the next couple of years to keep you honest, because I

    know

    you would be unable to do it on your own.

    2. I have all the passwords to every account on the system, and

    I know every password you have used for the last five years. If you

    decide to get cute, I am going to publish your "favorites list", which

    I conveniently saved when you made me "back up" your useless files. I do

    believe that terms like "Lolita" are not usually viewed favorably by

    the administration.

    3. When you borrowed the digital camera to "take pictures of

    your Mother's birthday," you neglected to mention that you were going

    to take pictures of yourself in the mirror nude. Then you forgot to

    erase

    them like the techno-###### you really are. Suffice it to say I have

    never seen such odd acts with a sauce bottle, but I assure you that

    those have been copied and kept in safe places pending the authoring

    of a glowing letter of recommendation. (Try to use a spell check please;

    I hate having to correct your mistakes.)

    Thank you for your time, and I expect the letter of

    recommendation on my desk by 8:00 am tomorrow. One word of this to

    anybody, and all of your little twisted repugnant obsessions will be

    open to the public. Never ###### with your systems administrator. Why?

    Because they know what you do with all that free time!

    Wishing you a grand and glorious day,

  3. IIRC the choppers are tagged as tanks, they're choppers sat on top of an invisible vehicle. So just lay out a path on the ground as you would for any other vehicle, and the chopper will follow it, it's still very difficult to get turns etc in though.

  4. Wotcha Dee :D

    The "Lights" command allows the turning on/off of certain lights...suprise, suprise. :devil:

    Some maps, (no, can't remember any examples) have lights in the rooms that can be switched via Igor. I think MP05Castle has a couple of rooms where there are lamps that can be switched.

  5. If possible, place the "reserve" platoon in an area where they can't be seen/shot. Then, when they are needed they can be teleported to the desired location. Many maps have areas that the player cannot get to, plus, the AI can cross the blue line boundary once, so it's possible to have the actors move into the playing area rather than risk having a player see them beam down.

  6. When you open Igor, before anything else, go to your file menu and select mods about half way down the list. This brings up a box detailing all the mods that you can select material from. Make sure that MP1 and MP2 boxes have a check mark in their box, if any others have a check against them eg. blakops_opfor.vehciles uncheck them unless you will be using material from that mod. Once the mods you wish to use are checked, hit Close and Refresh and this will take you back to the main scripting window.

    Once you start scripting a mission you cannot AFAIK go back to add/subtract mods to this .mis.
