Vilas: dropped a small contribution to say thanks. Seriously get yourself a decent PC. I can't offer much advice about budget CPUs but I know that a Radeon 7770 offers the best value video card. If you can stretch another €50, get yourself a 7850 which easily overclocks to 7870. Also I strongly recommend an SSD. 40, even 60GB will be too small but a 128GB one will allow you to comfortably install Win7-64 and CO. You can now get good quality (Crucial M4, Samsung 830) 128GB SSD for less than €100. Also don't bother with massive PSU (600+W) unless you want to run SLI. You're better off getting a smaller 400-500 PSU from a quality manufacturer (Antec, Fortron, Corsair, Seasonic) than a larger one from some less-known manufacturer. Sorry to hear about your moggy. I hope that your fire engine has flashing blue lights and a water cannon to extinguish fire or else by I'll send my son round ;)

thanx for advices but Polish shops' prices are little different (i won't buy and wait for parts from post, but i would go to shop and they screwdrive it and set it up)

SSD ?

take a look at prices:

4 128 GB ADATA SP900 120GB3 ( 550/500 MB/s ) 2.5? SATA3 380.00

5 120 GB OCZ OCTAN ( 535/270 MB/s ) 2.5? SATA3 440.00

6 128 GB OCZ AGILITY 4 ( 400/300 MB/s ) 2.5? SATA3 450.00

7 120 GB OCZ VERTEX 3 ( 550/500 MB/s ) 2.5? SATA3 450.00

8 120 GB CORSAIR F120GB3 ( 550/510 MB/s ) 2.5? SATA3 450.00

9 128 GB OCZ VERTEX 4 ( 550/420 MB/s ) 2.5? SATA3 470.00

over 100 EU, nonsense for me

prices of electronics in PL are higher than UK and much higher than US

how much do you pay for Canon lenses ?

http://www.e-fotojoker.pl/obiektywy/canon/

compare it with yours prices in yours shops around you (divide by 4 to get EU, divide by 3 to get USD) and remind that this is cheap shop

getting SSD drive , getting more "fountains" is for me sensless, also i already have Corsair 550W and i already have Noctua cooling for AM2/3

i cannot strech for another 50 EU, cause maybe you not read my posts in offtopic (when i often moan about politics and economy here, but take a look at our salaries : )

50 EU is money that we earn in 2 days of work with M.Sc. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?139956-U-S-Ambassador-to-Lybia-Killed&p=2229279&viewfull=1#post2229279 i do not want to go politicall offtopic here, i do too much oftopic since ever ;)

but i am leaving my old Corsair 550W power unit, my Noctua cooling, my HDD (SATA) , my DVD etc. and I believe I can easily now get strong PC that can hold Arma3 (GTX 650, 4 or 6 core AMD AM3 socket, 4 GB ram) , now i must spend money for Windows 7 which is listed here: ( http://www.skapiec.pl/site/cat/3006/comp/684684 ) cause according to their licenses on yourself-built PC you can't legally have OEM, so instead of super cards and SSD i would rather to change XP to 7 (to use 4 GB ram , cause XP uses only 3) , SSD of course sounds nice, but in PL it is ca. 120 EU , maybe in UK it is 90, but in PL it is 120, cause we have different local taxes and such like things , the same SSD costs in USA 90-100 USD , which is 80 Euro ? cause i have checked US prices at google at the moment, yes, in US they have such SSD for 95 USD

if something costs 90 USD in USA it doesn't mean that in Poland it costs the same, in PL it costs ... 450 PL/3.2= 140 USD ...

we have such mad prices here , due to taxes, due to other things like logistics and fuel price etc. etc.

i just compared SSD prices on Ebay, eh... 97 USD in US/Canada/Australia vs 140 USD in PL (i also wonder how big pizza is there for 10 bucks ;) cause here 30 cm flat like 1 cm)

What video card do you have?

Great work on BVP80! It will come handy for Balkania wars soon ;)

Vilas, screw that config. Wait for a week or so, so more donations come trickling in.

Here's a config that I use and get 60-100fps on high & full HD:

It should cost you around 700-800 EUR tops.

- i7 3820 3,6 2011

- 16 GB Crucial Ballistix Elite XMP/TS DDR3 (4x4GB)

- closed water cooling system RTS2011LC

- Gigabyte GA-X79-UD5 2011

- Corsair Carbide 500R white

- 120GB SSD for primary partition (and another SSD for ArmaWork folder heh)

sorry for post under post , but as on Armaholic updates were published, i can now type changelogs:

4 updates:

1) general update of whole P85 , since previouse release (i don't count wip betas but news on Armaholic) for new year 2012 following changes were made:

- cleaned RPT issues (at least majority, of course not all)

- few new vehicles (mostly for fictional armies like Nogova or SLA or RACS, i cannot correctly remember which exaclty vehicles were added cause there is many of them, but BVP M80A, Unimogs, Landrover Serie III were added)

- some new weapons + custom hand animations

- wheels damage system (tyres etc. Arma2 feature)

- separate civilian cars pack, i replaced all old poor quality models of civilian cars and reworked them totally, details here ( http://www.createforum.com/vilas/viewtopic.php?t=67&mforum=vilas )

- fixed some bugs like wrong cargo placement in LAVs etc.

2/3) West weapons pack + weaponholders (comparing to addon stage from previous release from 2011)

- added multiple G36 variants, added PZF3 , added handanimations

- added Latvian soldiers

4) Polish addon update (comparing to previous news from 15th of September):

- fixed some issues, RPT cleaned,

- added MSBS prototype, added P99D Walther pistol, added G36 with Specter, SpecterDR have 2 aiming modes,

so both PL and P85 addons update are focused on cleaning RPT as i could plus fixing previous issues,

links are on Armaholic news or here in first post (Armaholic FTP)

Renault Traffic/Opel Vivaro, Fiat Ducato/Peugeot Boxer, Ford Transit 2000, VW Transporter, are in cars addon for PL pack (second part of Polish addon) since previouse releaase from mid August , now it is only RPT clean + some small fixes like reflector direction fix etc.

BVP M80A is in P85, and of course MLODs will go to you IceBreakr + some other people making Balkan related addons

@vilas

Thanks for these new/updated addons, your work is much appreciated by myself and many, many others.

For me, as a none maker of addons or mods for the game, and having enjoyed using soo many addons over the years made by soo many community members from here and elsewhere, and indeed sort of collecting them, its really like having the game renewed each time, therefore the game never looses its appeal.

That is in great part down to the many mod/addon makers with all the islands, weapons, units, vehicles, aircraft, factions etc, etc, that keep the game fresh. I know its built upon what BIS has done and do, to support the series, but its still amazes me that there are so many gifted mod/addon makers that provide all this for free.

I for one am very grateful to modders for their time, skill and work in keeping the game fresh from day one..

I have put another donation through paypal and hope your new build is either on the way, or being built.

Many thanks for your mods/addons over the years.

Best regards

Chris

Looking good as always. These will be fun to have. I still use the older versions. Any chance that we can have marines with no helemts or option to raise the thermal sight?

Hi Vilas,

Im having some issues with your new p85 addons

im getting a pretty consistent CTD and each time it happens this is in the RPT file at the end

class HitPoints::HitRGlass not found in p85_brdm1_at_base
class HitPoints::HitLGlass not found in p85_brdm1_at_base
class HitPoints::HitFuel not found in p85_brdm1_at_base
=======================================================
-------------------------------------------------------
Exception code: C00000FD STACK_OVERFLOW at 00944E42

so i added these entries to your hitpoints arrays in p85_cars_cfg and p85_config

class HitRGlass { armor = 0.5; material = 0; name = "sklo predni P"; passThrough = true; };
class HitLGlass { armor = 0.5; material = 0; name = "sklo predni L"; passThrough = true; };
class HitFuel { armor = 1.4; material = -1; name = "palivo"; passThrough = true; }; 

and the crashes stopped. This is similar to the issue you had in your vilas_cpl_core that I believe i reported to you on your WIP site

Awesome M80A! Didn't BIS include a BVP for Takis in the recent ACR mod?

It is truly amazing how fast you make these cars! Guys in my team are shocked at the rate you produce them, and the quality is superb.
