The_Captain 0 Posted December 26, 2007 Another minor note on the m60: You can carry an M60 and a LAW/carl gustav at the same time. Looks like the m60 doesn't restrict the secondary weapon carry. The wiki says that the bit flag to restrict secondary weapons is 16, which is how the m60 is coded in cfgweapons in cwrrifles.pbo. However, in the BIS configs, the bit flag for 'type' is 4 to restrict secondary weapons. So "type=1+4;" works to keep the 60 user to only the primary weapon. The config also does not have a dexerity value (like the m240, which is dexterity=.57), which would decrease the aiming and handling precision of the weapon. Since it inherits from rifle, it has perfect dexterity, making it very easy to make snap shots with the weapon. (Not sure if this intentional, to make the weapon more ofp-like, but thought I'd point it out) The lower dexterity value also makes it more of a challenge to control the weapon's low recoil when firing at long ranges. Also, M60 fire rate is too fast. Reload time is 0.075 which is ~800rpm. The M60 is usually 600-550 rpm, which would be a reload of about .1 or .109 for 600 and 550 rpm respectively. edit: Not sure if this is intentional, but west sniper's pants are OD in front and woodland in back. Great stuff, guys.. having a blast playing with the goodies! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baddo 0 Posted December 26, 2007 I just tried the mission again, does end with no problems here. I did 1 teamswitch during the mission which didn't end properly. In case that has any chance to mess things up. Also only 2 of our team were alive in the end. I will have to test it again a few times to see if I get it again...

raedor 8 Posted December 26, 2007 I don't know if this is intended, but the SpecOps are equiped with time-bombs rather than regular pipe-bomb satchel charges. Not a huge problem, but it would make some of the CWC missions difficult if it's still there in the full version. Having charges detonate automatically after 2 minutes makes it hard to synchronize your attacks. Ermm, no? The loadouts of those units are exactly the same as in OFP. I just rechecked it...

ebud 18 Posted December 26, 2007 Has anyone seen this bug or would have an idea of why it would happen? Check out the pic half way down. I've never seen it or heard of something like this since day one SimHq CWR thread Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 131 Posted December 26, 2007 Maybe related to TrackIR ? Few people use it, so it´s quite possible that this bug slipped by through the whole development process. Either that, or Wepps uses CWR together with a worst config´ed addon ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebud 18 Posted December 26, 2007 Well if you read that thread he said he used no other addons or mods and used 1.09 beta. I can't see how that could happen with default ARMA/CWR/1.09. Would TrackIR do something like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tobruk 0 Posted December 26, 2007 Having problems getting CWR running with mods, mainly because of that pecular bat file start up. Here is how I have structured my mods "D:\Program Files\Atari\ArmA\beta\arma.exe" -mod=beta;CWR -world=abel;@SIX_Pack1;@lowplants;@NWD_TankFCS;@CSM However this results in repeated CTDs. Where as if I just punch the CWR_Beta_bat fix, it works fine in 1.09. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted December 26, 2007 yeah! Don't tell arma that the tank ballistics mod is an island! You've got a lot after your worlds switch that has nothing to do with worlds. You don't even need to specify a world, just chop that right off. Forget the bat file. Just make a shortcut on your desktop whose target looks some thing like: "C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA\beta\arma.exe" -mod=beta;@TrueMods;@ArmAEffects;FDF_Sounds;lowplants -nosplash and starts in: "C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA" NWD's mods will not work with CWR, so you can cut those right out off the bat.

Planck 1 Posted December 26, 2007 Presuming all those will work under cwr and also presuming they are all mods apart from the -world= line, I suggest: "D:\Program Files\Atari\ArmA\beta\arma.exe" -mod=beta;@SIX_Pack1;@lowplants;@NWD_TankFCS;@CSM;CWR -world=abel If that doesn't work try removing the mods one at a time to see which one is the problem, I'm thinking that one or more of them are not working under 1.09.

Heatseeker 0 Posted December 26, 2007 Can someone make a performance comparison betwean LOW and NORMAL shadder setting? I have this impression that using normal or higher shadder setting improved grass performance for me. There are a few things about Malden that i find strange: -Over the distance the terrain is green/brown but if you look at the ground close to you its a little too yellow. -Even with high terrain detail the terrain isnt very smooth. -The 2 identical hangars at the airfield that werent in the original island bug me a bit. Dont know what else to say, im aware you guys are using placeholders and the demo is beta (small bugs are obvious). Im loving the CWR charater models, the details are sweet (boonies and backpacks) but i miss the spetsnaz with backpack and bandana. The crashes in Ambush seem related to the npc dialogs, my workaround is to look the other way. The beta demo makes me feel confident about CWR, its a crazy project (so much work) but its shapping up rather nicely . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baddo 0 Posted December 26, 2007 Wolle, yeah I had a feeling that teamswitch could be a problem... I haven't checked how the mission looks from inside, but I have a feeling that the mission expects some certain unit to be the player (the unit which starts the mission as the player obviously) and when that unit is no more, then the mission doesn't work properly anymore. But I didn't look more into this and this is speculation only. It seems that people often have trouble getting the command line arguments right to start ArmA. I recommend you make your ArmA life easier and use a tool such as ArmA Launcher by Kegetys. Other similar tools exist too, but this is one I noticed does the job and is no more complicated than is required. You can get ArmA Launcher from http://www.kegetys.net/arma/ I also recommend that people arrange their various mod folders into one subfolder of the ArmA directory. On my computer this is: D:\Games\ArmA\@mods Then in that folder I have subfolders for each mod: @mods\FDF_Sounds\AddOns @mods\misc\AddOns @mods\cwr\AddOns @mods\cwraddons\AddOns @mods\bw_flecktarn\AddOns @mods\SpectatingScript\AddOns etc... Makes it easier to enable/disable certain addons when you put them into their own folders, and tidier to have them not clutter the ArmA root folder. Then use a tool like ArmA Launcher to choose which addons you load for a particular session (for multiplayer only those which are allowed by the server you play in). The executable installers which some mods have, such as the CWR, get slightly in the way of this kind of scheme though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
