Integrated missions

OFPIP has several missions integrated.

Vehicle DM

//TODO This mission is a rather simple Vehicle DM with a focus on fast and fun play.

One of the key features is that it auto integrates available vehicle addons into the mission.

• .\arma2\userconfig\ofpip
  • ofpip_hide_island_in_island_list.hpp
  • ofpip_select_texture.hpp
  • ofpip_select_texture_custom.hpp
• .\arma2\userconfig\ofpip\ofpip_config
  • ofpip_t_definitions.hpp

Stay up to date (included automatic updater)

//TODO The OFPIP offers an unique updating system which allows you to stay always up to date with the latest OFPIP version.

1. Go to .\arma2\@ofpip\tools.

2. Run Update OFPIP and vehicle DM.

3. Follow on screen instructions.

As alternative you can update with the OFPIP YomaTools Server.

Additional information

HowTo switch ground textures

1. Go to .\arma2\userconfig\ofpip.

2. Open the ofpip_island_select_texture.hpp file with a text editor.

You can chose the texture you want to apply to the specific island.

3. At the very end you have the list of available textures.

4. Replace the UPPERCASE string, like ARMA_BLATO, with a new one for the desired island.

⚠

Do NOT change anything else!

 #define ARMA_BLATO

#ifdef OFPIP_KOLGUJEV
 #define ARMA_LESLIST
#endif
#ifdef OFPIP_EVERON
 #define ARMA_LESJEH
#endif
#ifdef OFPIP_NOGOVA
 #define ARMA_TRAVA
#endif

//TODO You can check the different textures in the OFPIP Texture Settings Gallery in the BIKI or download the ACEIP Texture Settings Gallery _{(dead link)} as screenshots.

HowTo enforce the same texture in MP play

//TODO 1. Have verifySignatures active on your server.

2. On your server ONLY the OFPIP_v*.*.bikey may remain in a keys folder.
You have to remove the OFPIP_client_can_choose_texture_settings_v*.*.bikey from any keys folder or your server completely.

3. Go to .\arma\@ofpip\addons.

4. Move the ofpip__client_can_choose_texture_settings.pbo to .\arma\@ofpip (one folder higher).

A client has to do points 3 and 4 in able to play.

Standard setup - files overview

//TODO

Server key file

//TODO Included in the release package.

The .bikey file are needed only on the dedicated server in .\arma2\keys.

To have the key(s) inside .\arma2\@ofip\keys should work as well.

Separate download:

Important: To allow custom ground textures you need both keys on the server!

BISign

//TODO Included in the release package.

The .bisign files are needed both on the dedicated server and client in .\arma2\@ofpip\addons for each PBO, if a server only allows to join only with signed files.

Separate download:

Extract the package inside the .\arma2\@ofpip\addons folder.

Linux server

For better readability the files still use case sensitivity.

⚠

Do not forget to make all files lower case only on a Linux server machine!

The OFPIP updater says "File not found or site error..."

Probably not available on this mirror.

How to use the SAT pack

//TODO

When I use to add SAT pack, will they instantly replace other textures 
and make sat-texture as default? Or how to use it together WITH Signature-checking?

No you have to activate them. Please read Big SAT package # Installation and HowTo_switch_ground_textures.

The SAT have his own key found . BIsign files are included in the download package itself.
