Hi GR1 players ,

I have finished a new OGR mod, its called "F-18 Strike" and introduces to Ghost Recon the feature of calling air strikes.
The player will be able to see a F-18 or a F-117 and a guided missile flying in game, both in SP and MP games, without mission scripts !
The minimum suggested system requirement for the mod is :

Celeron 2.2 GHz
1gb DDR RAM
Geforce 4 TI 4200 128 MB


Dont know if it is 100% mac compatible ok ? :wink:

Here are some links for mini videos hosted at youtube showing the air strike:

Special Features:

-Increase your GR gaming experience by adding instantly a flying F-18 or F-117 plus special sound effects to virtually any mission you want
-SP and MP compatible
-Simulate air strikes calls using a SOFLAM - SOF Laser Marker
-Mark targets to the F-18/F-117 missiles and blow up even tanks
-Hyper Stealth characters as the SOFLAM operators, all equiped with radio and mic
-Failed to mark a target ? Watch the guided missile flying till it disappears over the sky

Minimum system requirements (suggested):

-Celeron 2.2 GHz

or equivalent

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT:
TO ENJOY ALL MOD FEATURES, YOU MUST ACTIVATE F-18 STRIKE, QUIT THE GAME, AND START GHOST RECON AGAIN TO GET IT COMPLETELY ACTIVATED.
TO DEACTIVATE IT, FOLLOW THE SAME RULE.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Install:

Extract it to your ...\mods folder under Ghost Recon, then start GR,activate the mod at highest priority.This means the lowest item is your options-mods screen. This mod is non-overwriting and should work in SP and MP.

The mod loads fine for me. Although I can't seem to get anything to explode. 8) I call the F-117 and hear it fly but when I switch to Target Marker the plane seems to have passed.

Mad Max, make sure the mod is not inside another folder.

Yeah, thats the idea, you call the plane, and when you switch to "target marker" the aircraft will have already passed, then you mark the target and some seconds later the missile will explode over the target you have marked.
Please check this mini video :

and the "How to Call Air Strikes" .pdf file that is inside mod's folder.

You must have something else causing the problem. It never crashed for me. Check your Ike.log.

my ike.log ?? the file name rings a bell, is there anyway to reset the thing

Itll work on any maps, with any other mods - its 100% compatible. As monoman said, check your ike file in Ghost Recon folder, open it and copy everything, then paste here so we can give a check on whats causing this.
