Desert Stormers ACE

[Grimfist 0]

I made this mission a while ago, its really fun and realistic.

if anyone still plays arma 1, DL it and see what you think.

its for 6 players but you can play on your own with ai. (they revive you aswell)

Briefing

You are 'Delta Force'. A US special forces squad operating behind enemy lines in Afganistan. The Taliban have shot down a UH-60 blackhawk and 3 aircrew are missing. Your mission is to destroy the AA emplacements, Ammo dumps and locate the downed aircrew. We also believe some high ranking Taliban officials are meeting at a stronghold, take them down. When all the objectives have being completed escape to the southern desert and await further orders. In this mission a motar platoon near by to give you full motar support, but be wary of collateral damage becuase if more than 15 civilian's are killed then we will abort the mission. Be wary of IED's and suicide bombers in the area.

Hey Grimfist, I love the idea of this as this is what im into too, but the problem is the Avgani Iraq & Afghan Village map download is not availiable, you must have had the map before the author of the map pulled his download.

I was trying to get this map too before for my own missions but it says :

"Download removed as requested by the author."

such an ausome map to, hopefully hes just updating it.

The map maker, Opteryx, has made hes Armed Assault addons unavailable in protest for BI not upgrading the Visitor tool for Arma 2.

There are still several places you can get the latest Avgani+Aghan village though, like here:

i thought visitor 3 was like some uber military tool that costs lots of $$$, personly i think thats silly. why would BI care about his maps anyway?

well i love his maps and i hope that he makes future releases as they are AUSOME!

Hi,

I installed the mission but I can't find it in the game's menu...

[sparks50 0]

Did you place the PBO in the Missions folder? You can also place it in the MPMissions folder and access it by hosting a game in multiplayer.

It's good to see people still making missions for ArmA1! Thank you for this. Downloading now.

[Marc Shepard 10]

I placed every .pbo in good place...

[desertjedi 3]

I can't find the mission after installing it in my MPMissions folder either. I checked under all the "islands".

Nice campaign! :)

Just a info for those, who also encountered this little problem:

If someone else miss the ingame Afghani-Map for calling airstrikes or artillery etc., it may depend on the A.C.E.-version you use. With 1.05, I had no problem, means I had the map available. With higher Versions of A.C.E. (1.07 to 1.09), the map was missing in my inventory, because of other equipment. So I manually added the ACE_Map via the init-field of the soldier in the editor with "this addweapon "ACE_Map". Now I'm happy again. :)

Somebody always has the map (no more everybody). You have to search the inventories !!

I like this mission, but if you play in sp the stupid ai make it too difficult !! They always die and there are too many enemy (enemy ai can kill you with an ak47 form 500 mt., they seems to be all fu..in snipers)!!

Btw I love ACE mod and this mission is very well done !!

getting the error user config/DFS_cartridges/DFS_performance.hpp not found.

i downloaded the DFS cartidges separately, put the pbo file in the mod, addons folder, but where the heck does the .hpp file go? i put it in dta then in dta/ACE......no joy. any suggestions?

Does one need Queens Gambit for this mission to run? or is ARMA v1.14 sufficient?

[Grimfist 0]

Queens Gambit is needed.
