O.K. so no Badlands for me tonight. Here's the scenario:

1) 2 days ago I logged on fine.
2) Did nothing in between
3) Tonight I can't....now get message "Bad CRC Met_27NWAsteroidDefense.scr"
4) I download "OPMissions" and install again.
5) Attempt log on again....same message.
6) It's that simple......

7) What did I miss?

It's not you, kinda. A Bad CRC message like that means you are missing a certain mission. In this case you are missing Nuclear Wessels 27th mission Asteroid Defense. I suggest looking in the zip file again and seeing if Met_27NWAsteroidDefense.scr is actually in there. If it is, there may be a newer version out somewhere that they may be testing and haven't released yet. Other that that I can't think of anything.

Thanks for the reply. The mission is definately in my scripts folder. I checked after I updated the second time. I wonder if any changes were made on the server side that could have corrupted the file? Very puzzling.

For what it's worth, I just got the same error

EDIT: the one I tried logging in with matches the one in the posted pack (script dated 4/23), so guess it must be something server-side

OT - Wessels is from Victoria ? - that makes a lot of SFC types for one small place.

Yuppers

I haven't seen Ming, Skull, or BBJones in awhile now, but they're all in town. Throw in a few more up and down the island and it's not a bad collection

Holler when it's time for beer!

Dave, did that mission get an update? Otherwise I don't know why the error would happen.

I'll check the file on my end just to be sure that nothing wierd has happened but AFAIK there have been no changes.

Nope, I don't think that script has been touched since it was first released a few weeks back.

Actually, until this morning I hadn't done anything on the OP side in about 10 days or so (had to reinstall the API, and just got around to doing that this morning)

Actually, I can add a new complication - got the next OP pack ready to go.

This adds two missions (and allied space patrol and an enemy space patrol),
removes one (the buggy 7Patrol),
and fixes two others (11ConvoyRaid and 8ShipAssault)

The theory is that this will be the last update for a couple of months - I've got a couple of other projects I'd like to fire up (plus I'd actually like to get some playing time in

) and this should bring both the OP and EAW packs into a fairly acceptable state. Undoubtedly there are still a few bugs, but hopefully tolerable ones for awhile.
