Advanced Combat Environment (A.C.E.) 2 - v1.0 stable

[Hatsune Miku 10]

The Dynamic Classlists require some form of sortable 'recent addition / change' filter, whether by date or a simple tag so mission makers can keep their stuff up to date with relative ease.

Thanks alot man, will check now to see if its fixed.

I've got a network issue, just confirmed that it was ACE causing it.

When I'm hosting my own, non-dedicated, local game and other players fire anti-tank missiles my whole internet connection dies for a moment (TS and Xfire lose connection and wont reconnect until I close and re-open them). It also happens when I try to join someone else's hosted server and also when another player sends a fire order with R3F's Artillery mod on my server.

Any ideas anyone?

Good find wich should be properly reported at the ACE issue tracker. Now it needs for you to register but thats just a good thing because you can go there and check what other tickets are filed and vote for them as well so the ACE team sees if a problem is big or not.

Just remember to do this the correct way though so there are no doubts from the ACE team side. So remove all other addons and be sure its ACE causing the problem (maybe CBA can do this also?). Also when reporting a ticket make it short, easy to read and down to the point so the ACE team can easily check it. Preferably make an example mission so they can just download it and test it instantly (you can upload an example mission straight to your own bug report from your desktop). The example mission could be with a unit having the anti-tank missile in question in his inventory.

Sorry for little messy post but its very early here. :) Good luck.

Would be nice if there was easier way to tell whether or not they need to be updated (stating whether or not they have been updated on the "new version" announcement post would be a good start).

The userconfig version is only increased when there is an actual change. So that is your notification.

If you want to figure out the changes, you could use a tool like windiff.

The thing is I can't replicate it on any other computers, it looks like just as much a problem with my set up as it is a bug in ACE. Since that's the case I guess i'm looking for help sorting out my issue than asking the ACE team to 'fix' something on their end.

[M.Andersson(SWE) 4]

With the woundsystems and medsupplys could it be possible

to have ALL Ai´s to heal eachother.?

IE: F3 is a at gunner and have medsupplys, F5 is a rifleman and have used all

his medsupplys and is wounded. F8 is corpsman but engaged in another AI.

Id like to order F3 to Heal F5

[stk2008 14]

I think ace is trying to say that F3 is a gunner not a medic he/she ;) would not have the knowledge to heal an injured team member tho im sure some basic medical knowledge would be known.

[Alex72 1]

Yes you can order any AI that carries bandages, morphine, ephine to heal anyone when using ACE injury module. Like usual just select the unit and then press "6" (action menu for the AI) and then if not in that menu chose "MORE" and then you see name(s). Chose the name and the AI will heal him (unless in DANGER mode wich it will take longer time before healing begins).

I think i even seen AI's heal eachother without me saying squat. Dont know if thats a proper observation though. Maybe it was a medic.

hello chaps. may be a silly question, but is there a very basic guide someplace of how to use new maps (iraq, avgani) with ace 2?

many thanks

[M.Andersson(SWE) 4]

Hmmm...Ok...Ill just have to try some more then..

WUT :confused:

You can't repro it on any other computer than yours and yet you see the problem as a ACE issue... that makes no sense at all!

You have to look up CAA1 project wich is in charge of that. ACE is loaded like normal when using CAA1 (ArmA1 islands & gear). But you have to use a launcher since the modline will be very long.

I was trying to say that it's obviously more of an issue with my connection than it is with ACE, so it's not really worth making a post on the issue tracker, but it's still something i'd like to get sorted.

Having a little trouble playing on multiplayer.

I have the latest version (i think), which is version v1.0.10.316.

However, whenever i play on a server running ACE 2, it says i need to update to version v1.0.10.336 or something like that.

I cannot find v1.0.10.336 anywhere and its really annoying me.

Could someone please give me a link to the latest version download please?

[Kramxel 10]

Just tried out the new version, and I am proud to report that the problems I had with the beta version are now inexistent.

My problem was with the aiming system, which prevented from being accurate at close ranges... I had a really hard time hitting targets at 50m...

That stopped me from playing ACE, but now several months after I tried it out and it is a charm!

Congratulations on a fantastic job!

[SaOk 112]

Great mod, but is there a way to use vanilla game AI with this mod? I would favor to have the old AI with poor senses in singleplayer.

I use the Six-updater (great tool btw), and my version is 1.0.10.337!

Most of the major components are in their own .pbos, but deleting one might just bring everything crashing down around your ears.

Doesn't the reduced accuracy compensate? I can still do stealth missions quite effectively.

[SaOk 112]

The accuracy is already low and I like it. But I cant command my group well when the AI can see very long which make them really unresponsive to follow you anywhere. In large battles you just need to clear the all enemies in big radius before the squad members want to obey the orders again. Before BIS fix the problem I cant enjoy much this mod in SP if there is no way to use the old AI senses.

Please see http://ace.dev-heaven.net/wagn/Download

"Install the Mod", b) Ongoing development.

Incase you have installed a stable release, you will have to (re)move it before updating to the ongoing development.

Can't they just include a normal .exe installer of ACE2 ? Instead of making it so bloddy advanced to install, its soo complicated.

I second this.

Make it much simpler to install.

Do i run six updater with or without Autoskip active????

I felt the same until I gave the six updater a chance, it's SO easy to use and I actually feel like an ass for calling it advanced.

[Quakecry 10]

So i've downloaded ace core + six updater. Now what, hopefully i might just get to play ace today ^^
