Malleus Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Hi! I haven't gotten around playing this, but I plan to do soon. However, I read something about a next patch, the 1.4, which apparently haven't been released yet. So, should I wait a while for the 1.4 patch or it's OK to play the mod in its current state? Thanks.

Tinker Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Hi Malleus 1.4 patch for this mod should be up in a week or so. I`ve deleted my old files and have to get through all previous issues again since 1.3. Currently in progress. Most of the mod as it is works. But 1.4 will include specialists. So if you are going in SP, maybe hold off from the campaign. There are plenty of extra missions inculded to try out though. All available SP. There are a few small issues, but nothing that`s going to bring your house down. Hope to update soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malleus Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 There's something wrong with the mediafire link, it says it can't find the file. Btw, Tinker ... are you British? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 There's something wrong with the mediafire link, it says it can't find the file. Confirmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Link changed to filefront, all fine, sry about that. Btw, Tinker ... are you British? Yes sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malleus Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) Yes sir. Probably just a funny coincidence, but so far everyone I came across, who uses "of" instead of "have" (""Hope to of fixed everything""), turns out to be British. Anyway, thanks for the patch, the link is working now. Edited March 3, 2010 by Malleus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowMaster Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Nice job. I noticed the outfits look more varied in this version, or is that me ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowMaster Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 (edited) You folk noticed this already probably. But in this version the M32 MGL has "bird sounds" when you trigger/shoot the grenades. Just reporting a bug.. Edited March 7, 2010 by ShadowMaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Will check it tonight, probably an error in the effects.xml *Edit* Checked gun file for sound reference, seems fine in the effects.xml Have no clues! Maybe it`s an easter egg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 The M32 is listed twice in the effects file. 2 ways to fix this. 1: Locate 1 of the lines same as below and delete it. Then at the top of the list, change count 109 to count 108 <Entry Filename = "n_gl_ss.wav" Length = "2.139" Min = "1.000" Max = "2000" Rolloff = "75"/> 2: Download THIS new effects.xml and put it in your Blood oil / Sound folder and overwrite.

Burawura Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 I am trying to get information on the music used in the Blood Oil game menus. The menus use an African world music song and some keyboard tunes as well. Mrwhat@hotmail.com is listed for "various kit and ambient sound effects" so I tried sending him an email but it came back undeliverable. Perhaps someone here would know who did the menu music; Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Not sure exactly who sent what across for the music files tbh. Had most of them sent over a long time back, and never kept a record of were they came from. Most of the African stuff can be found on YouTube, from Blood Diamond Soundtrack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burawura Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Awesome, thanks Tinker, I knew it sounded familiar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malleus Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hi there. Something's wrong with the XCR weapon sounds. Seems like the suppressed and normal sounds are mixed up. I used the aimpoint 2x5 version suppressed and it was loud, and then I tried the cqb version unsuppressed it was silent. Just thought I'd report it.

Tinker Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 No idea what the problem is, but I`ll try to look into it and find out. Thnx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malleus Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) Not sure how the file structure of GR works, but I checked the /equip files, and the n-xcr_aimpoint-2x5-sd.gun and the n-xcr_cqb-sd.gun file references the m4sopsd_s.wav for sound, and the n-xcr_aimpoint-2x5.gun and the n-xcr_cqb.gun file calls for the w_M4SOCCUM_ss.wav sound. Now the thing is that the m4sopsd_s.wav actually sounds like unsuppressed fire, while the w_M4SOCCUM_ss.wav sounds like a suppressed "thud" sound.

Malleus Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) Now i've run into a real problem. Whenever I try to load a game on the fifth mission of the campaign (waterfall), the game crashes. Both when played in the campaign and when launched from quick mission menu. Only mission mode is affected however, I tried it in firefight, and load game worked fine. I figured I'd just skip this mission with the 'autowin' command (no way I'm gonna ironman it ), but that doesn't complete the objectives, and on this mission, doesn't unlock the specialist. Any way to make the objectives completed, or get the specialist character otherwise? Edited April 2, 2010 by Malleus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper1518 Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I was playing BO and after thesecond or third mission, all the guns on my team made the same sound, regardless of type. The first time i noticed this, they all sounded like the M240 on full auto, then they all made a chirping sound. I then tried a map on "Firefight" and got the same results, but the sounds returned to normal once I de-activated Blood Oil. Upon restarting Blood Oil, the sound issue returned, with all weapons having only one sound, regardless of type. Any idea what is causing this?
