Need some help with GPS precise navigation

[Saint Warrior 10]

Hi all,

Could anybody tell me how could I navigate to the specific coordinates on the map in ArmA II CO 1.57?

So far my GPS (right CTRL+M function) is acting like a map only. Is there any possibility to enter the required coordinates to GPS and navigate there?

Any tips would be much appreciated.

Nope not with vanilla any ways.

You can (subject to difficulty setting) hold left shift and left click on map then when ya exit you should see a green arrow it can be very faint though.

If you run ACE you can use a dagr I think its called and enter many coords its wicked :)

Not my video BTW

Hi stk2008

You could make a script to do this.

Also you do know about the about map [shift] [Left Mouse Btn] single click giving you a player visible way point in game? It shows up as green sheveron on your screen edge if you are not facing it and as an arrow pointing down to it if you are facing it. It also has the range to it.

Thanks guys now I understand I should rely only on what GPS is showing. The matter is that there are lots of tips about Harvest Red campaign with various coordinates where I can find specific objectives but I have to sweep half of the Chernarus to get to those coordinates.

The coordinates are completely logical and the grid numbers and letters are seen on the edges of the map.
