Is OFP, ArmA, and ArmA II made from BIS or BIA?

Recommended Posts

I'm just wondering what are the roles of BIS and BIA. Do BIA make like the hardware and the simulators and sends them to BIS to downgrade them for consumers?

BIS is BIS and BIA is BIA. The first creates the engine and consumer titles, the latter use the engine, modifies it and sells the result to their customers. And every here and then the result of these modifcations is shared with the consumer titles. ;)

To put it simple, BIS does the main work and BIA only does some modifications. BIA has done the Virtual Battle Space (VBS) series for military use, based on the OFP and ArmA engines.

Nope :)

As the name (Bohemia Interactive Australia) suggests they are based down-under ;)

EDIT: Heh, 3rd time the charm I guess.

Australia is just south of Czech Republic so they're not so far away.

Australia is another region of the Czech Rep. You've got Bohemia, Moravia and Australia, the latter being the smallest.
