You can go straight to Sagrada after Paquito joins, it's been that way for a while now. The Puerto viejo - Campecino - Sagrada route is when you don't know who's got the luggage.

Similar issues has been reported, but that had to do with the Player Base. I need to know more about it before I start looking for the bug, like if you recruited militia at your base or took over any other sector.

Silly me for not figuring the 2 first points...

As for the CGL change bug:
1. I accidentally took over Santa Maria after talking to a mayor

2. Hired Muerte via barmain.
3. Didn't recruit militia or anything like that.

Overall - my save game is attached, if it provides anything useful.

This is a vanilla thing, you always get bumped to CGL 8 if you take over a city. I think the devs made it like that to prevent players from exploiting it. If the enemies carry low CGL weapons it's much easier to take a city than when they're well armed.

I'm still at work but will check the save when I get home later tonight.

been a fan of BFX and hardlife, recently got back from afghanistan and wanted to replay 7.62 with the new blue sun mod.

I'm running windows 7 64bit and despite installing the C++ distributable and a fresh (gamersgate) installation of 7.62 I get the HLA.DLL error with the cyrillic text.
I've searched for the answer extensively before posting as well as done my fair share of troubleshooting but I haven't found a thing.

PS: has anyone recently downloaded from any of the available resources for BSM 1.6? AVG picks up a trojan hijacker to be hiding as the bluesunmod.exe
on second look, i thought it was rather curious that an executable was only a 34kbs

If this is the problem would anyone be willing to send me a clean BSM via email?

R@S · #**504** 02-20-2011, 10:30 PM

I don't think there's a trojan in the exe, most of that file is made up of the image and the remaining 3kb are pointers to the hla.dll file.

The hla.dll error occurs when you try to run the game with the wrong E6.exe in the game folder. That file needs to be the english vanilla exe, could be that the gamersgate version has some differences in it from the box version. Try extracting this file to your game dir and it should work.

works perfectly!

You are awsome, I can't wait to play through the latest version of this mod!

Thank you so much for helping me.

Probably the behavior you described was detected by AVG as "hijacking"

Also - I had another problem yesterday (apart from awesomely enjoying the game

):

In the mission from bobs where you have to get a box of merchandise which was stolen you start in an ambush. The box and reward weapon are laying on the ground. After some shootout the baddies are down... but the crate is nowhere to be found. It is red in the inventory screen, so I cant take it that way. Usually in this case one has to come close and "grab" it, but its as if it went right through the ground... original spot is clear of stuff. makes me a sad panda

Hello R@S, my sincere congratulations for your mod, especially keeping it up for so long

Did you use grenades in the vicinity ? I think they can destroy the box, the gun and other stuff stacked at the same place. It happened to me and I had to reload, fighting as far away as I could and not throwing grenades anymore, but it worked.

Yeah, that i did... I'll have to refrain from doing this

The E6.exe is working fine for me too.

But it seems no v1.5 save works, does it have to be a new game?

Also, If R@s or any one else has time some of the weapon stats need a bit of a review. Particularly the micro uzi and the M1A SOCOM, both of them are shortest barreled version in their respective family yet have a higher damage range than the longer barreled versions.

Another personal request would be Big ammo boxes of regular and even cheap ammo versions, not just the AP variants.
