Airwolf Monitors Addon (beta) v2


The issue with this addon is its size, compiled (it's around 980mb) as one addon, for the likes of Mediafire hosting thats 6 RAR files (free winrar doesn't do split files) so its not viable to release the ONE pbo file inside a spanned rar as users will have to buy winrar or similar to unpack it.
Then if i release the "folders" across 6 stand alone rar files people have to compile the 980mb pbo using winpbo which has mixed results on mixed CPU's (especially modern ones)  I was tempted to do smaller single addons & a scripts pbo that's smaller, easier to grab updated versions. but then they released AW on DVD in the uk  (and chance to get better lookin screens) then they released a remastered version.. thing is i killed a GFX card making these and pretty much doomed the 2nd that died on a later project due to previous use (new hardware, old software) u think it would cope better... Paintshop pro 7.04 (reboots a win98 system when outa ram) on xp just bleeds over to the gfx memory and heats it up then pop, display driver only allows safe mode and the cards dead...

I wont spend money working on a project that cant be sold, id be insane to, Nor will i ask for money, software or serials (because my systems are how i like em and for music production mostly) Im not rocking my boat for others benefits (not when i consider the input i haven't had and yet the agro i have had on top of loosing hardware) Screw that lmfao

So as it stands for this addon there are SIX rar files...
released 29th November 2007 (Total PBO Size  = 980mb)
123456

And you can get the Help File here

Release History:
-----------------------

AW_Monitors.pbo BETA 1 (PBO = 846mb)
And thats all im gona say... The rest is frankly up to you  :)

Enjoy...

Airwolf Extended Themes Addon Construction Kit (addon)

This topic is related to Making your own Airwolf Extended Themes addon
for OFP/CWA/ARMA,1,2,3
(should work in take on helicopters as well)

WARNING:
To make this addon you require the Ariwolf extended themes CD's OR the MP3's
DO NOT ASK FOR THEM HERE I WILL DELETE YOUR COMMENT AND BLOCK YOU
I will not be involved in piracy requests, just pay the guys, its worth the price and you can get the mp3's in stores now so there is no excuses...
anyone caught distributing this thing with audio files included will also be booted and blocked.

With that out the way....


Right... where was i.. oo yeah

How To Build Your Addon?

Well first you need your music...
you need WinPBO
and an audio converter.. (oggDrop,  or dbPoweramp)
and the Airwolf Extended Themes Addon Creation Kit.rar (from facebook group)

Rip Your CD or Convert Your MP3's Into WAVE files IE  .wav
(this will make them more stable when recompressing into the OG format)
Convert your WAV files into OGG files
recommended setting for music is 128kbs "CBR" cbr means "Constant Bitrate"
(oggdrop or dbPoweramp can do that)

Q) Can i use wav files in the addon?
A) yes. BUT many ingame effects use WAV and you will tie up your sound card

Q) can i use MP3 in the addon?
A) No.. the game doesn't support it.

Rename Your ogg Files as shown below
(so my Config & Scripts can load them into the game for you)
and then place them in the correct folders.

CD ONE TRACKS "NAME THEM"  AS...

01.ogg
02.ogg
03.ogg
04.ogg

14.ogg
15.ogg
16.ogg
17.ogg
18.ogg
19.ogg
20.ogg

Place them Into the CD1 Folder

13.ogg
14.ogg
15.ogg
16.ogg
17.ogg
18.ogg
19.ogg
20.ogg
Place them Into the CD2 Folder

Don't get smart with long names,
you just tie up ya cpu with ofp throwing large chunks of code at it, game stutter...
Besides names have to match my scripts...


Use Win PBO to compile the addon (don't use any compression) Tick the Resistance box and save it as this file name    AW_ExtendedThemes.pbo  and place it in the addons folder.. see readme files in RAR on how to use the addon in game

Your PBO should be APPROX  134mb

When you run it In Game with the INT field pasted in here

Enter script code from readme file here, hit ok and click preview
In game you then get the following extra on your Action Menu..


OFP Voices are often Wav or Ogg
OFP Vehicle & Weapon SFX are often Wav or Ogg
OFP Music is Ogg
OFP Environmental wind, water and stuff is mostly Wss
OFP Image support seams to be limited to PAA, PAC and JPG
