:confused:

This is the first time i hear that.

I can't help you if I don't know your system specs.

Try to install the lastest driver for your graphic card.

I think its an ArmA problem, i had these problems aswell when i was flying without FLIR after some time. FLIR just made it happend quicker may because its needing more power or something.

I think its because of new the lousy nvidia driver. I may downgrade to a better one.

however my system specs are:

AMD 6400+

Nvidia 285 GTX be

8 GB Geil Ram

Windows Vista Ultimate

OffTop:

Maybe changing to Windows 7 makes playing arma faster too?

Thank you anyway...

You upgraded to vista and got 50% better performance:eek:? Or you meant win7?

well, that sounds great! I guess i will update to Win7 next week. I dont like vista at all anyway... so back to topic!

I changed some settings and my nvidia driver, and also found the sticky nvidia post in the troubleshooting section.

Now i can use FLIR just nice even on the big world map, tsherna russia... or so :D

Thx for this nice addon!

I have successfully installed 8 other add-ons but I can't seem to get this one to work. I have the CBA and I have tried for a total time of roughly an hour trying to figure this thing out. Can we please have a tutorial on how to install this particular add-on.

Here is a link to a good recording program:

1/extract the .pbo and .bisign in an addon folder.

2/extract the .hpp in your Dta folder.

ex:

Arma\@FLIR\Addons\FLIR.pbo

Arma\Dta\FLIR_Keymapping.hpp

That's it.

Could you make the FLIR available for the pilots as well?

This so it can work with Heinbloed's helicopter weapons mod, in which pilots can use the aiming optics of the gunner.

Thanks!

Just a suggestion to keep default Arma2's folder clean - move the FLIR_Keymapping.hpp into new userconfig\Apouh_FLIR folder. Better avoid issues and keep all nice & clear. :)

With the upcoming addon for ArmA 2, Apouh will probably not update the FLIR.

No :cry: :cry:

Can nobody else give the pilot a FLIR then? Im sure the entire Arma community is waiting on this and im just the one who has the balls to ask for it

Do you mean the upcoming expansion pack? This is an addon for ArmA 2 and it's already out.

I think he is talking about the expansion for AA2, since I think it's suppose to have realistic flir stuff for it.

ArmA 2 OA has a realistic thermal vision feature implemented. This same thermal imaging technique can be, and is applied to a FLIR camera (Forward Looking Infrared) in the game.
