No it's not ....only have OBJNAMES.str in my strings folder, but i don't have that file in my Hellerhouse zip either
what's the solution and why would it not load this file in particular ?
Edit: just downloaded from tafferfsparadise and darkfate and there is no MISSFLAG.str file in those downloads either....don't think this mission has one of those files

What's the number on the *.mis file in the ZIP?

Some very old missions weren't running in FMSelector due to the "MISSFLAG.STR" file being placed in the "FMs\hellerhouse\intrface" folder iirc. Find and copy/move it there.

the zip file does not contain a MISSFLAG.str in any folder :(
Edit: this is weird, just changed my cam_mod back to running via FMsel and Hellerhouse loaded ok....a temporary glitch it would seem
thanks for your help though cattamer, but all good now :thumb:

Here you are:
Code:
// Valid mission flags
//
// skip This mission doesn't exist; it should be skipped.
// no_briefing Skip the briefing movie
// no_loadout Skip the loadout
// cutscene Play a cutscene immediately afterward
// end End the game when this mission is completed
//
miss_1: "no_loadout"
miss_2: "skip"
miss_3: "skip"
miss_4: "skip"
miss_5: "skip"
miss_6: "skip"
miss_7: "skip"
miss_8: "skip"
miss_9: "skip"
miss_10: "skip"
miss_11: "skip"
miss_12: "skip"
miss_13: "skip"
miss_14: "skip"
miss_15: "skip"
miss_16: "skip"
miss_17: "skip"
miss_18: "skip"
miss_19: "skip"
miss_20: "no_briefing,no_loadout,end"
save as "MISSFLAG.STR" and place in the "FMs\hellerhouse\strings" folder.

Voodoo is this missing MISSFLAG.str worthy of one of your wonderful .dml files ?
@ Yandros miss20, as is the 2 FMs I downloaded from cheapmissions and taffersparadise

dmls only modify maps, and gamesyses (if that's a word). if a file is missing, well, it needs to be re-added. but I can drop the file to the repository (in a zip, with proper folder structure), if you want the patch to be available there.

ok, it's there (not really a NewDark fix, but whatever). btw, the mission seems to be quite (visually) broken.

Apart from that .str file the mission works fine, the skies look a bit odd from some angles, the weirdest thing is after you alert guards they can end up relocating anywhere, sometimes in ridiculous positions, but you can take advantage of that oddity
There's also an objective that ticks off then unchecks, but to finish the mission all you need to do is return to where the objective checks off and the mission ends correctly....so no big deal....and I know you can't really fix objectives with dml's so didn't report it
