kris018 0 Posted April 27, 2008 finaly i can play on my 4 gig system, woohoo. Now to some questions since i havent played arma or ofp in years now. Is there a "best mods" tread for arma as we had in the ofp forum? If not could someone recommend some "must have" mods for sp/coop missions? Thx in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Binkowski 25 Posted April 27, 2008 SimHQ is a good MP mission pack, really realistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted April 27, 2008 I would definitely recommend Maddmatt's ArmAEffects. Additionally you should pick the sound replacement mod that best suits your tastes. FDF SoundMod for example. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarlGustaffa 4 Posted April 27, 2008 ECS. If you want to use FDF soundpack or any other soundpack with ECS you would have to disable the ECS_Armory.pbo though. ECS makes ArmA into what it should have been in the first place; smokestacks from chimneys, AI using flares and smoke automatically, first aid, catching fire, bleeding, weapon jams, AI doing house searches looking for you, better AI behaviour, AI supressive fires (sort of), dynamic weather, adding functions to certain buildings (i.e. Repair building), adding lots and lots and lots of ambient sounds to numerous buildings and locations (radios, telephones, beeches, fog horns etc). And the best part is, it just works! No need to rebuild missions to use all this, you can even play the campaign straight off the box and it just works. Brilliant solution. Other addons may require a game logic to work, or insert lines of code here and there. -- Another addon I just downloaded and simply love, is andys mags. It replaces the default satchel charge model of ammunition laying on the ground with proper models. Now you can actually see what ammo is laying on the ground. Brilliant little addon. ArmA should have this included as default if you ask me. Haven't tested it fully for problems though. -- I also like some of the "true" mods; such as trueview. It just increases view angle limitations, so that you can see further back behind you while moving without turning your body. It also changes rifle zooms levels, so you should first try without it to see the difference. Maybe you like default behaviour better anyway, which has changed with 1.12 so I'm not sure how default ArmA feels like at this point. -- NWD has some pretty decent addons as well. I like to use scopefix and ballistics mod, but not the rocket mods. You'll have to check these against vanilla ArmA and see what does what and disable what you don't like. --- These were some of the MODS I am using. I have tested a few other mods and mod packages, but usually you will have to be a mission designer to fully take advantage of these. Some mods may not have signed, and you will be kicked off online games without warning or reason. This truly sucks. It would be understandeable on PvP games, but I don't think there is much reason to "cheat" during coop games, although cheaters will always exist To BIS: Getting kicked out of a game is fair game so to speak, but I'd like to know why. What do I use that conflicts the desired setup, so I can change it. Now, I have no clue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kris018 0 Posted April 27, 2008 Why couldn't you play before? 4 gigs never worked for me before 1.12, no game should be needing to disable mem just to play, so i dident Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 28 Posted April 29, 2008 Patch feedback thread + A&M:C is what you were really looking for rather than creating your own private little thread Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
