SLX Vehicles

[Vultar 0]

I'm going to buy better pc cause SLX is a real fps KICK! xP

I guess you won't have to! And hope that all these functions will be precompiled first...

Hopefully SLX will be optimized, because I don't like our server that is hosting 16-players to lag-die because AI decided to kick up some dust with a BMP-2 suppresion-fire =)

SLX vehicles are amazing and make more intense CQB situations for the infantry itself.

Well, whatever it is and howver it lagg... Im in^^

paragrapher, Can I ask you a favour? As I want to play as realistic arma as possible, I have almost nothing on screen, no aimer, no ammo count. The must-be things are very small.

So is there a possibility to remove any comments from screen like there are in ECS?

Thanks anyway

Cheers,

Vultar

Is there any fix for the Squad Patch yet for the vehicles?

Hey guys, I'm hoping and praying someone here can lend a bit of a hand in my problem here that I seem to be having mysteriously.

I ran a clean reinstall of ArmA, QG and the 1.09 patch. I just got a server as well so I figured I'd check out and try the suggestions off the Addon Compilation Thread as per all instructions laid out on the first page. Same files, same folders, same loading order. I tried loading up client-side to make sure no crashes or conflicts and made it to the editor safe and sound. However, upon placing a humvee and trying to enter the vehicle I kept getting this error:

Now I thought it was an issue with the compilation, so I just put the event handlers and all the slx files (i did the patch up as well for the slx veh) into my ArmA/AddOns directly and ran just ArmA, Beta and QG. Once again same thing. I must have downloaded the SLX Veh and patch like 3 times off armaholic, and still the same frikken thing. I'm super stumped here. Any suggestions? Pweeeeeaaase! I got scratch and sniff stickers that smell like strawberries!

If I am reading this correct, you said that you are trying this out on a server you just recently purchased?

If so, you will need to upload these to the server as well as have them client side in order to run them on a server.

That is if I am reading your post correct.

Hi

First of great mod, I really like the new feature with the doors.

But I was thinking if it would be able to get the timing right.

Looking at the A10 entering animation, the player waits until the ladder is in position.

It would be great if this would also be the case in SLX mod. The player should wait until the door is open, before he enters the vehicle. Then the door closes again.

Greetings Sonsalt

Well I was going to, but decided before having to upload a massive amount to the server, let me try everything client-side, just to make sure no CTD's, compatibility issues, etc.

So I got this issue not on the server but on my own system, client-side. I figured out the problem though. I downloaded it like three times from armaholic and never worked, but downloaded it from armedassault.info and now it all works. I think maybe my downloads somehow got corrupted or something. All I know is all is working well again, so I'm a happy little buffalo again.

First off all, SLX will not, or only minimal, cause any FPS drops

Second, the ammo counter is indeed removed and the crosshair you can turn off in difficulty settings

But SLX is ECS compatible so if there is something not in SLX which is in ECS there is no problem

@Others: SLX is made to improve the gameplay in ArmA, Solus did as much as he could to keep the game stable and performance as high as possible but did not design SLX as an magic ArmA patch. So if your server can only handle 16 people it will probably not handle 60 with SLX, at this point I'm not even sure if it will run smooth at any dedicated server, as most tests where done over LAN or SP as you can see with the results of this addon.

But the MOD will come soon untill then let's keep this topic clean about the vehicles so we can fix the current bugs and maybe even finetune some stuff.
