I wish you well with your further research.

What I hadn’t noticed is that you select to be a server on the options screen, before you get in the game. So I selected that and then selected SERVE in the game, and now everything works perfectly.

Thank you

I had to go back and fix the update that was required before you install Escalation and now all is working. Windows 11 can run JO which is good news for everyone with ageing computers.

So we have three machines Desktop 10, Laptop 11 and Laptop 7.

I suppose it is complicated then. I thought it was maybe just a simple tick-box that I hadn’t noticed.

I was thinking of getting round it by placing the “Invisible object for targets” on top of the explosive box. This seems to highlight the box on the map, which is what I wanted.

So I put an explosive crate into a mission map, and it doesn’t show on the map.

How do I make it show as a red dot on the map so you know where to look for it. And when you’ve blown it up (it is destroyable), how do you make the red dot vanish so you know what’s left to destroy?

    I’m using NileJ4F.

    It is my experience from the missions that I have created, that in a DF Terrain with murky water, if you use any fish or sharks of a different team number to the players, they will swim around and they will attack you if you are in the water.

    What we have learnt is that fish with identical properties behave differently in different terrains.

    DF Terrains have active fish but murky water.

    DVX Terrains have translucent water but inactive fish.

    Maybe somebody knows why. And maybe nobody knows why.

    Any terrain file really.
    But I had a Klong village on stilts DM using DFD1, Full00 Env, and if you fall in the water, you get attacked by piranhas.
    Trouble is you can’t see the piranhas coming at you, and it would be nice to do so. That’s why I’d like transparent water.
