hon0 10 Posted February 9, 2012 http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Cheats What is your problem in this mission? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jetranger7803 1 Posted February 16, 2012 I have a problem in this mission. I´ve completed the flying task but now I have to do a quick land on the firing range but nothing happens there. Im hovering over it and the copilot always wants to have a better angle. For what? Any ideas, what to do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hon0 10 Posted February 16, 2012 Welcome Jetranger. You have to land while heading the correct angle. I think between 0 and 15° for this mission. Open your compas "k" or display the hud panel or watch your instrument to perfect it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derbysieger 11 Posted February 16, 2012 display hud panel is rctrl+h btw. On Expert difficulty you have to enable "Allow full HUD info" in the difficulty options to see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jetranger7803 1 Posted February 16, 2012 Thank you. I tried it to land between the green markers on the compass but nothing happens, the lads did not hop off. It´s crazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tim1261 1 Posted February 26, 2012 (edited) Hi all.. I am having problems with mission 6, for some reason I keep running out of fuel when i get to about *cresting the mountain* hope someone can tell what I'm doing wrong.

hon0 10 Posted February 26, 2012 Welcome ! Check your fuel panel. If it's ok before the sentence then it's a bug. If not restart and try to be a little faster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tim1261 1 Posted February 26, 2012 G'day well I checked the fuel gauge at the start of the mission at base & its only half full. I move the mouse to the fuel bowser & it highlights GREEN but its NOT letting me re fuel. In general the game is starting with only 1/2 tank of fuel, any ideas what I am NOT doing right to refuel before I leave the base heliport ? Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tim1261 1 Posted February 26, 2012 I'm at that mission too BUT for some reaason when I start mission 6 I only have 1/2 tank of fuel. I've tried using the fuel bowser, it highlights a GREEn CAn but i still cant get it ti fill the chopper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's been some months since I flew that mission though - may be a patch changed something. I will fly the mission later and report back. €dit: There is nothing wrong with the mission. Everything works just fine. Maybe you did a bit of unnecessary sightseeing? You need to take fuel later on but you should be able to make it easily to that point without running out of fuel Edited February 26, 2012 by Derbysieger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tim1261 1 Posted February 27, 2012 Hi derbysieger. I havent put any patches in the game & your right theres nothing wrong with the mission, Havent done any sightseeing either, problem is even at the very start of this contract 6 when i go to start the heli I look at the fuel gauge & its only 1/2 full,, why I dont know .....

Derbysieger 11 Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) You start with a half full fuel tank because you're supposed to have limited fuel in that mission. I've flown this mission several times (last time being yesterday, first time in the beta) and never ran out of fuel. So you definatly have enough fuel for the mission. You will run low on fuel and you have to take additional fuel to fly home but you should be able to make it to that point in the mission without a problem. Just fly the mission without going off course for too long. You should patch the game btw (unless you bought it off steam and it patches itself).

kylania 568 Posted February 27, 2012 Is this the one where you fly around the PMCs and do crazy leaftop stuff? If so you're supposed to be low on fuel , just follow the waypoints and wait for the next part of the mission to kick in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
