You have to hold it for a little bit. They already decreased the time a bit, though I wonder why a single spacebar hit doesn't do it (holding down the spacebar isn't how it's done in any other part of the vanilla game.. e.g. the intro quotes).

Retried this morning, still doesn't work.

Could you have a look at bomb reticles again too?  Dropping unguided bombs will always result in beeing off target. Choose a flat target (i.e. a decal on a runway) and do some runs on it with the A-10  without extreme dive angles. You will notice that the bomb always overshoots by 20-30m, depending on speed altitude and angle.  Idk if that deviation is because of some direct trajectory calculation issue,  or if there is some delay after pusing the trigger,  before the bomb starts flying. If this potential delay is not accounted for in the calculation then it will always overshoot.

Hello,
I am not able to reproduce it here, all unguided bombs dropped from plane (even via CAS support), hits targeted area as they should.
Could you provide please more information or optionally video?

Thanks and regards! :)

Please add some new empty models.

In my opinion some CSAT bags must have right textures (Hex), now it's "Coyote"

Try with A-10, GBU-12 (hits normally)  and then try with Mk82 (flies over).

countermeasue bound to mouse button, so point of drop more noticeable. First bomb is gbu-12 - hits correct, others are mk82 - they all overshoot. It makes a much bigger difference when flying in faster jets or trying to hit stuff on reverse incline / mountain top.

Yes, I can confirm this. When dropping unguided bombs from the Neophron or one of the new and faster DLC jets it is even worse.

+1, Just tested.

Just for warn...

 

If you use lbSetCurSel inside onLBSelChanged, the game will CTD.

I found that a while ago as well.  IIRC I think what was happening was I set an "lbSelChanged" EH for 2 different listboxes on the same dialog.  Here's my notes from when I did it:

 

// crashes game - stack overflow - lbSetCurSel triggers onLBSelChanged as well so A triggers B, which triggers A etc etc...

Oh well thats why.

I didn't notice that lbSetCurSel fires lbSelChanged too...

I see that, in higher speeds with this kind bomb reproduced.
We will look on that, thanks. :)

Hello!

 

Since we are going to spend a lot of time looking down for mines, I thought I would bring this up (again) :

 

 

It ruins a lot of the efforts that have been made over the years to make Arma visually more realistic and convincing.

Regarding Halek's question and this ticket about grass and clutter pop-in: https://feedback.bistudio.com/T124606

 

Is this maybe just out of the scope of the current development resources and plans? I see the ticket isn't assigned to anyone at all still, though it was mentioned in this thread awhile ago by a dev it would be passed along to the art team. Is there any chance at all anyone would be able to look into what's causing this?

Maybe the party line is to simply ignore the repeated requests for any kind of feedback/response, then the noise will eventually quieten to a whisper.....

It's no different to the Visual Feedback thread, where there have been numerous and passionate posts from long-standing community figures asking for more detailed documentation relating to the lighting system....all ignored.  If pleas from @.kju go unanswered, what chance do we have with our vexations.

Hi everyone, please dear devs, can you make " Sort by mods " by default in virtual arsenal ( I'm not English I don't know if " Sort by mods " is the right expression in English game version ), o7

-In the showcase "combined arms", the Blackfoot doesn't fire anymore.

It just comes, fly by the camp and hovers behind it. It no longer circle above nor fire at the enemy.

[lexx 1412]

Just noticed that if you have a UAV (Darter etc) with engine on and disassemble it, the backpack will keep making sound. If you then assemble it again, the UAV is back with engine on. Also it wanted to follow its last waypoint.

Can't argue with that logic

To do this, we need gaming logistics, which does not allow the appearance of unacceptable actions. Otherwise, it is used in an unacceptable way. https://feedback.bistudio.com/T85691

[added hidden selections]

 I am glad you like it, I was surprised when I found out that it's missing, so I added that to all weapon.

Also, sadly, attachments can't be retextured.

 

Can the integrated grip/bipod of the LIM-85 be made a hidden selection or just colored black by default? It now looks weird on Tanoa with its khaki colour. With a black grip it would look very nice on CTRG soldiers for instance.

[kllrt 154]

Yup, I'll add hidden selection to it.

But to temper expectations, it may not see (significant) improvements. The source problem may lie rather deep in the LOD / clutter tech, and changes may cause worse glitches elsewhere. What's happening is a fresh investigation, but no fix is on the horizon at the moment.

Aiming deadzone is broken in latest dev version, zooming while using aiming deadzone causes camera to auto center.

Please do try go balls deep on this one DnA . Arma 3 looks pretty damn good. as far as visual glitches go , the pop in on the clutter it is an immersion killer.
