Jack Carr Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 What do I do with the .rar files once I have downloaded them to my PC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B0nes Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Yeah, I was at a loss too until I Googled it last night. .rar files are WinRAR compressed format files similar to Winzip files. Download 7-zip for free and you can use it to extract the files from the .rar container to the Dropteam\data folder. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konstantine Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 This is a great scenario. I've been playing it standalone and it really demonstrates how much fun this game can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Carr Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I was able to download 7-Zip and I extracted the .rar file into the data directory, but I can't play this scenarion in standalone. It bombs before it finishes loading it up. I'm at work so I can't play around with it now, but I'm going to try again when I get home. I may download it again and try extracting it again.

Dark_au Posted August 4, 2006 Author Share Posted August 4, 2006 Glad you like it Konstantine I've actually been thinking of an interesting idea for an objective mission based on this map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konstantine Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I should elaborate why I liked it. Having nothing but Paladins, no heavy weapons, no Hermes, no ATGMs and no towers makes for a very fast game and lots of kills. With only small calibre weapons one can really take the time and aim for kill shots. Dropping ion Paladins is actually fun--you can park them hull down and actually rack up some kills with those neglected platforms. I had many a Paladin with 4 dead tires, no engine, and yellow everything else still racking up bot kills. I hope this scenario makes it on a server, it would be great on line. The map is fun, too. Lots of trees to hide in, and it's easy to drop near the flag as nothing can easily take out a drop ship. This type of force mix would also be perfect on that desert map with the plinths and all the little dips and rises to duck behind. It reminds me of CMBB early war scenarios.
