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.

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
