The Blue Sun Mod

[IceShade]

A typo? I didnt make any changes whatsoever.. I remember saving the game, the game crashed, and the game didnt start up again.

Weird stuff. Oh well, I reinstalled and copied my saves over and it works fine.

I got to the ambush site with a ton of enemies just 20 metres or so away, and I could see the necessary objects lying there on the ground. I miraculously manage to kill the enemies, but a good deal of the items on the inventory screen can't be picked up, and I can't spot them on the ground either.

I've had this both times I've played the mission. What happens is that everything you see in red in the list is occupying the same space on the ground. There should be a pile of stuff on the ground right around where the enemy all spawned. In order to get to all the stuff you have to go over to the pile and pick everything up using ctrl. It can be a little slow, but shouldn't be a problem.

Hello everyone, sorry for the lack of presence on my part, been a bit busy with other stuff for a while.

I had to boot up the old JA2 for a while to try the new 1.13 release, but that only lasted for a couple of weeks, after playing SPM games going back to it is not as fun as I remembered. Too much time is wasted on waiting on my turn and all that boring micro-management just isn't my cuppa anymore. Anyways...

I promised a new release of BSM at the end of June, and it still can be done. I just need to balance about 100 new weapons, something I plan to start doing this weekend. I haven't spent any time on the code tho, I've run out of ideas ATM, might refine the bootcamp a bit.

Geroj is busy with his exams, but those will be done in a couple of weeks, then he'll have lots of time making new weapons for us.

i am recently playing 1.6 and an error i have witnessed on a multiple level...many weapon pics in the shop are not shown... the weapons are usable but the image is not to be seen... with some weapons it is just in folded mode but other completly...

Those issues can usually be solved by deleting all files in the \GameDir\RenderedItems\ folder. If the problems persists it could be related to the new code that removes the item limits, but that's a long shot. Please let us know how it goes.

Hi I followed all the instructions, and it says "This program has done something very, very bad. We killed it. We are very sorry for the inconvenience." Please help, I really want to use the blue sun mod with this game. I'm on win 7 x64 and I've tried running it as administrator.

@Vader
It seems there are some inconsistencies with the map packs, the ones from MediaFire are different then the ones from Dropbox. So if you d-loaded from both of them you will not get all of them. Try downloading them again, and this time only from MediaFire(I'm on suspension at Dropbox, too many people has grabbed my mod from there)

@Killer
Try using the wonderful installer Spurt made for us, just d/l the files, extract them and mount the ISO file. The installer includes all necessary files and is pretty straightforward and easy to use. Here's the linkies:

Part 1

Part 2
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17796446/Blu..._1.7.part2.rar

Part 3
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17796446/Blu..._1.7.part3.rar

EDIT:
The installer includes the German compatibility patch as well, if you have the English version make sure that you don't choose the GCP files when installing it.

Thanks, but I got it working earlier today, was going to post but I started playing.... Long story short I thought my clock was broken

how is it going guys. I have downloaded blue sun mod(1.7) from the links from the first page and i have instaled it acording to the description.The mod is absolutly wonderful but...(always that bloody "but" hym...) there is a few details that dose not work properly on my win 7 64-bit sys, the beam of the "rifle flashlight" is directed in wrong way and the atachments on all FN SCAR family are to high up(above the rail), and finaly the main thing most of hk and scar have the shell point(by that i mean the visual place where the shell supposed to fall out) on the wrong side of the weapon but the shell itself comes out from the other side though.Is there any way to fix these few small things? Please!
