5133p39 14 Posted March 5, 2007 you forgot to tell ArmA version, and more importantly the mission in which is this happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r3pent 0 Posted March 5, 2007 its version 1.05...... and it happens on lots of different missions and modes....ctf coop hold Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Infam0us 10 Posted March 5, 2007 Sounds like a mission specific problem. You ever contacted the host of these servers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r3pent 0 Posted March 5, 2007 its not mission specific....its on lots of them.i can be running along,or hiding behind a wall,the poof,as if by magic im a seagull......and its saying in the chat text something about good birds and not running and it my own fault??? i have mentioned it to the guys on the server...and they say i must have gone out of bounds...but i aint...there have been guys next to me...i have been right next to enemy flag..... it allows me to respawn and carry on playing but its so annoying Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Synide 0 Posted March 5, 2007 It's the new and improved FADE baby! If you have a legit copy and you are getting this then you should contact that suppliers support department. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r3pent 0 Posted March 5, 2007 so whats it mean when it says good birds and stuff?? mine is a legit copy but i have it mounted on DT in order to play it because securom wasnt allowing me to after i patched it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Synide 0 Posted March 5, 2007 ArmA and FADE/Securom 'assumes' that if you are using a 'image' mounted on a virtual DVD drive then you are a pirate. It does not have the capability to make the additional distinction that yes you might be using a virtual mounted image, but hey the CD key is legit so don't activate FADE. It's the way of things I'm afraid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryhopper 286 Posted March 5, 2007 wtf.....i keep getting turned into a seagull while playing MP,i DONT get killed and i DONT go out of bounds,it just pops up and says in text.....(i think)good birds dont run from this game,its my own fault        whats my own fault?but then i can press respawn....whats all this about?? lol, can you post a screenshot? Quote[/b] ]mine is a legit copy but i have it mounted on DT in order to play it because securom wasnt allowing me to after i patched it ? im confused. you have a legit physical DVD. you mounted it DT in order to play, because securom wasnt allowing you to start it, AFTER you patched it? that makes NO sense at all... since a DT mounted arma image is not going to work since 1.05, without doing kinda RADICAL things to your pc. how the HECK do you run the game now, when this bird and error pops up? dont forget about that screenshot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r3pent 0 Posted March 5, 2007 well jerry hopper,if ya look in the trouble shooting section you will see a post called "securom my ass" that will explain all,its not only me but a few others who have this prob with securom and mounting the image on DT is the only way around it(few reg tweaks). ill try get a screeny soon,i have also heard of other fade attributes...like shots goin wild...not encountered those yet.

jerryhopper 286 Posted March 5, 2007 i read the thread..... (http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard311/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=68;t=58912;st=0) And what i eventually read are solutions taken from warez-boards. has it ever occurred that people that play around with hider-tools etc, are just ASKING for problems? i bet some of those people used tools like protstop-starfuck-curerom etc etc. if you use daemontools primarily for movies, hiding tools are not needed. btw: the thread doesnt show any person that tried reproducing this error on a CLEAN windows. God knows what kinda crap people install these days.... sidenote : i have DT enabled, and official DVD in dvdplayer, all latest versiosn, whatever i mount in DT, Arma works.
