Description
A port of HETMAN: War Stories to Uhao Island.

"HWS is meant as very easy in use generator of dynamic, interesting battles conducted by HETMAN commanding AI. Unique each play battle experience powered by very complex scripting is created with few mouse clicks. No addons required.

Resulting battle may vary greatly each try. War has many faces, nothing is guaranteed. You're only one of many cogs in the war machine controlled by HETMAN, so do not expect any special treatment. Those battles aren't player-centric in any way. One time you may found yourself in the middle of fierce firefight immediatelly, another time you may be kept as reserve long time before you see any action. You may die in the first few minutes or survive to the end without a single shot fired, but with few clicks in the legs. Both extremes are not very probable, but possible and perfectly OK - just do your part or act on your own. Create own war stories."

Ah bummer. Thanks for looking into it though! I really enjoy HWS and was looking forward to playing the island I reside on lol. Hopefully the map itself isn't broken but if it still doesn't work after a clean porting then its best to conclude as that.

Thanks again. :aquaman:

So, i went off to test if could work. The 'fix' i told about is just an alt, additional step, method of porting HWS to another map. I'ts supposed to use with map from older games of Arma series (OFP, Arma 1/2/OA), but this also makes some odd and old terrains work with WS. Anyways, the bad news is it doesn't mather, i can confirm the mission and the game crashes, just like you said, right after spawn and initials text. Perhaps i'll have to do a clean porting but maybe the terrain itself is broken, don't know, for now avoid this one.

I'd like to try this map again, though what was the fix you had in mind for this port?

Ah map seems broken anyway. Sky is pitch black and doesn't change no matter the time.

It's a shame though since I kinda wanted to try this map. :aquaman:

Yeah, I did try with vanilla factions at first (since I was testing all of your ports which all were fine).

Decided that it's probably best to wait until the newer and most recent HAL Evolved gets implemented in Hetman's War Stories (however long that'll take) so it's no worries.

The issue in question was more of the game having trouble loading as soon as you finish in the menu and spawn in, with the text at the top progressing but suddenly stopping halfway
(like: Welcome to Uhao. Then enemy came- *freezes*) and then the game crashes right after.

Thanks again for porting these.

Yeah, sorry, theren't much i can do besides one thing, but it may not help either. From time to time i get these reports. It can be a couple of things. Give another try, but this time only with vanilla ArmA factions, then keep testing with other custom faction mods, like CUP or RHS. I'm not the original creator of this mission, only ported, and haven't touched these missions in some time, so who know what might be broken. I'll try to update with a simple fix i know. Check later, if still wants, to see if works.

Sadly crashes the game after the initial menu. Was really looking forward to playing this map too! :/
