A.C.E. Advanced Combat Environment - Public Beta *2*!

[PuFu 4600]

I've starting getting this since I upgraded to 204

Addon 'zeu_c_ai_skill' requires addon 'ace_c_ai_aiming'

Obviously something to do with Zeus for ace as when I disable it, the problem goes away.

what does you problem has to do with ACE? Why is it in this thread?

Please, this is not a general discussion thread. We are not here to fix all your issue. Please make sure it is ACE related before even posting. Better still, put bugs and feature suggestions on Dev Heaven . Net

i am very much looking forward to playing this someday.

I downloaded the 2 required zip files for it, not the sound mod or ace2x yet. I put them in the arm2 folder but did not extract them. Then i ran that updater program and it was downloading and updating for a few hours.

When i run arma and try and join a ace2 server i still get booted and it says i still dont have the content.

@Fraggle:

Please add your report (with mentioned logfile and details), hopefully helping us pinpoint the issue sooner.

Done.

Wow, calm down dude.

I wasn't attacking your work, just basically making an observation and I had no idea there was a new Zeus.

I deleted the message.

Hey Sickboy things are looking great. The 3rd Marine Division now has it setup to do a automatic update according to the schedule you have posted. We also have a automated system to move the key files to the main keys folder so they work. key files doesnt appear to work on the server end in mod folders :p

In addition our tactical server which uses a few custom maps has been setup so we can run the updater and now automatically update it. It is also running ACE and runs a few of the community made ACE missions. Would love to see a few other mods like FFAA added into ACE or just be added into the six-updater as a mod selection.

Keep up the great work, and we will continue to lead the way with the most popular** ACE server

can anyone tell me what exectly the panic_button does?

found it in the userconfig/ace_keys.hpp:

class ace_sys_stamina

{

class Panic_Button

{

key = 69; // Num - Whatever

};

};

is it kind of adrenaline in situations you have to run faster or longer to save your live?

doesnt work for me at the moment.

If you are suffering from stamina effects you can use the panic key build up some adrenaline and run some meters.

Anyone know why it is that when I follow the little guide for adding my ArmA profile to ACE it doesn't work? I did it to the letter but it never seems to work.

Did you enable the mods after you downloaded them? Use an addon launcher or edit your shortcut to include the mods.

I think the M-10 and M-5 chutes was missing from the classlists (ACE + ACEX)?

EDIT: Couldnt get the classnames from looking at mission.sqm either. Anyone got the names?

Thank you.

Where does one find maps for ACE? I've been looking all over, but I can't seem to find where they are being released.

[luckyhendrix 10]

You can use any maps with ACE

[HateDread 13]

I meant specific ones with the "ACE" name, which take advantage of the new items, etc.

[Alex72 1]

ACE team: Was the option "Jump Out" removed? Or is my ACE mod messed up maybe? Running 204. I thaught it was CSM2 soundmod that did this but i removed everything except ACE and i dont have the jump out option. Cant para from helis when sitting cargo etc.

Nvm. Just saw the ticket after 5th time reading through DH.

EDIT: Thank you for adding the chutes to the Classname list. :)

I am still unable to update, as apparently my config file is telling the six updater to skip every thing, honestly i really do hate this bloody updater thing, as i now have to trawl through the previous 240 page thread, plus this new current 80 page thread, to work out what the hell went wrong.

What a nightmare.

Service point and main bunker in towns should work with the options > support menu > etc.

Trucks work with the action menu, just get close enough.

[Murklor 10]

S-M, have you clicked the reset button?

I had a problem with the updater skipping files, simply because I assumed that unticking skip and hitting execute would update... But it doesnt. You need to run reset skip status first.

I imagine another solution is to simply delete the config file, start the web client and hit execute with the default settings.

[S-M 10]

I have tried to reset a few times, but it always seamed to reset back to skipped mode.

I managed to install the new setup a week or so ago, and managed to play a game online, but i have been unable to update it since, i assume it is out of date now so i have been playing other games instead.

In total i have put about 3 hours work into getting this mod up and running, around 1 hours 30mins per version :s

It is simply not user friendly at all, tooo much geek and not enough game.

Let me know the details http://dev-heaven.net/wiki/six-arma-updater/Bugz

and im sure we will find out soon.

Try this: Reset-skip-status

and this: Future-runs for simple info on how to use the software after it is configured / ran once.

That is with the little more complex thing; they are documented

If you want to know the how and why, check http://dev-heaven.net/news/show/274

If you'd like to be constructive instead pulling down all my free and hard work, incl now finally working on user-friendly GUI, check out http://dev-heaven.net/issues/show/7618 and join in!

Yes, but that is the problem.

People rather screw around for 3 hours, than read 5 minutes and use the software properly. Then get mad and piss on me; Funny!

Quite frankly; it's getting old.

Mine does that as well but when there is actually a new release it still finds and downloads it, so it seems to be working as intended.

Ok I have a problem I only have one arm and I was really wanting to change some of your key bindings like shift + F and Shift + V and right windows key so i headed into my

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2\userconfig\ACE

clicked on Ace_keys HPP file it looks like this I want the Z key to be used here

Z = 21 it says in notepad

};

class ace_sys_interaction

{

class Interaction_Menu

{

key = 21;

shift = 0;

};

but when I go to a dead or wounded guy on the ground I get no options could really use a hand here.

P.S. It took me 15m to install the Six updater It was very easy and simple It is by far easy to understand and use I think the people crying about how hard it is to use are just the product of the Me and selfish generation that think they have the right to be spoon feed everything with out any work on there part.

Great job Sir

Sorry Sickboy, but if the whole update process was not so baffling then nobody would be complaining, and i bet you would agree with me, otherwise why would you be working on a new GUI update?

I haver played with plenty of mods on various games in my time, yet i have never been baffled as much as i have with this one?

Reason for that ? = i never spent 5 mins to read the docs? i am sick of looking at the bloody docs, now you have suggested that i join this Dev Heaven to help along with things, that is even more geek/anal than the six updater process in the first place LOL i look at that page and think WTF?

We had about 240 pages in the old thread, and now this one is up to 80 pages, and the vast majority of the posts within them seam to be people who are having trouble with the mod, so maybe i am not in the minority here....

Mine would not update for some reason, i have removed it all and have started from scratch, it is now updating properly.
