Probably. This is what I'm saying. :( If you love your mission you're better off dropping Leights.

Regarding CUP civs, Tupolov made a comment on it recently unless I'm getting confused with a different civ faction: http://alivemod.com/forum/1795-supported-factions/0#p9343

Talking from experience to remove the dependency if you don't want to start a new mission from scratch:

Make sure you set it so ArmA stores your mission.sqm in the old readable fashion.

Go into the editor with a new faction in your mod line (and with Leights/RHS still loaded, obviously) and delete all references to Leights in the modules and any objects of Leights that were manually placed. Save.

Exit the game and go into the mission.sqm file. Search "LOP" with ctrl+F and "LOP_" as well and delete any lines which refer to Leight's pack.

Go back into the launcher and then remove Leights from the mod line. Try opening your mission. If it loads, you've successfully removed the dependency. If it doesn't, add Leights back to the mod line and start back from step 1.

Do the same with RHS if you don't need the mod any more.

I did this a few months back and don't regret it for a second.

You can change this yourself. It's under one of the settings in the 3D editor. If you can't find it post back and I'll find it for you when I get home.

To be honest, LOP may remove itself entirely just by deleting the assets and removing the faction name within the editor. I generally do a look-see in the mission.sqm any time I remove dependencies just to be safe.

@Sheeps I should be able to get the previous release from our server so will roll back mine then wipe it from my mission never to use his work again!

Or you could do that. Lol

Another benefit of Aggressors over Leights is the fact that Leights has a dependency of RHS. Aggressors does not.

You'll need to use vanilla civ vehicles but yeah, still the best middle eastern faction available IMO. And don't forget the sound hotfix for CAF (which should be available in the main download page on Armaholic).

@Keeway Hello from LOP developer, any protips on configuration our mod? What exactly we need to do? We have working groups so far.

Keeyway, I'm really happy you're stepping in to help develop this mod. It really is a mess with ALiVE so you've come to the right place. Lots of smart people here.

First things first man is you guys need to stop changing the pre-existing classnames and faction classes (making a faction from OPFOR to IND, etc). LOP is a mission killer because every update poses the risk of breaking existing missions.

Also, regarding ALiVE, the units seem to be configured to spawn WAY too many people. For example, let's say an ALiVE mission maker has a mission where 100 units spawn across the map. When they consist of an average of 4-10 people each, this is a really nice way to have a well populated and well balanced mission. But LOP seems to be on the high end and I've personally seen what seems like well over a dozen soldiers spawn in one unit and then several more of similar numbers spawn too. For one, it kills mission balance because too many enemies spawn all at once which is horrible for Insurgencies, and now also imagine how that many enemies spawning all at once can hurt performance.

LOP is a sexy mod but like I said, it's just too risky to use. Every update poses the possibility that some major change will break a pre-existing mission. Leight has done this over and over and over and my opinion is that needs to be the first thing that changes going forward.
