ACE for OA 1.13

[twan 0]

Sorry to hear the ArmA 2 chapter of ACE is coming to a close. Wonderful work on this excellent mod.

One question: Did you remove the "Attach satchel to vehicle" action? I can't seem to do it anymore. Usually when you placed a satchel next to a vehicle, you could interact with it and get an option such as "Attach satchel to tractor" or something.

Thanks

EDIT: And one more small question: Is there any sort of iron sight on the M119? Not the optics that you can use with the aim down the sight button, but an iron sight, or an over the barrel view, or something.

It's still there. You need to arm it before you can attach it now.

Ok, thanks, I must have forgotten to arm it.

EDIT: Oh, the satchels are no longer able to be attached, but IEDs are.

You can attach satchels. Set timer, arm, then attach.

[Tonci87 163]

Can't they be attached with remote detonation?

[Strikor 10]

Yes, remote detonation work fine on both satchels and IEDs.

Ok, thanks, I did not try to set timer, I was just using remote detonation and trying to attach it after, I got it now!

Says those files don't exist. I don't see a "hotfix2" on devheaven either.

[jagheterjan 10]

The hotfixes get incorporated into the main download upon release, meaning you need to either run the 'Verify & Repair' option in 6updater or re-download the whole package off ArmAholic.

Can the aircraft towing tractor actually tow aircraft?

I have attempted to get this working....

• Placed an empty towing tractor on the map. (CARS/Towing Tractor [uSMC]).
  
• Placed an empty aircraft on the map (an A10, an AV8B and a C130-J).
  
• I have retrieved the towing rope from the tractor.
  
• I have attached to TOWER on the tractor.
  

Unfortunately I can't get attach to TOWED to appear for any of the aircraft. I placed them directly behind the tractor at various distances over several tries.

I can get it to work on other wheeled vehicles though so I think I am doing it correctly.

Is it possible?

[Strikor 10]

You don't use the tow rope. Just back the towing tractor up to an aircraft and use the "attach" option on the action menu.

lol - thanks for that. I guess that's not even an ACE function then?

Thanks master.

It is an ACE feature. Like so many small things/features you sometimes won't notice immediately :)

Yes but ArmAholic and the ACE wiki state there is one hotfix1, whereas he posted links to hotfix2. According to the ACE wiki it doesn't exist.

Wel ive been trying to dl cba_oa and ace mod but every one i get doesnt work......someone help?

[SigintArmA 10]

Do you have ArmA2: Combined Operations (It has both ArmA2 and ArmA2: Operation Arrowhead) or do you have only one of the two? That could be part of the problem?

[Siccmade 1]

I have arma 2 reinforcements installed now, i think i got it to work

[islesfan186 83]

Yes, I get that too - it doesn't damage the aircraft though so I can live with it!

One thing I noticed yesterday was that the pagination in the FEATURES section of the documentation no longer works. The 'next page' link got screwed up somewhere along the way. The search works so it's no big deal, but I used to like clicking through to see what major features were there that I have never used but should have by now!!

[sickboy 13]

How about a ticket on both issues, and any future issues :)
