    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    Understatement.
  2. Is anyone else now seeing a happy smiley pinnochio face on those T90s, or is it just me? I`m almost seeing that barrel grow a few inches each time I look away.

    [SP] Revenge - OFP Remake

    Thanks again. I hope you`re not getting bored of working on these old missions yet. You were asking for possible missions to remake over on steam, and I`m not much of a social guy, so I`ll pop a little request in here if it`s ok.... The original 'Wake Up Call' mission from OFP led to a lot of tense times if you chose to either sneak up and plant charges or take them out from a distance and get chased around by BMPs and infantry.... :) Not sure how well it would work in A3, but it was always great in OFP or CWR2.
  4. That SLR with the underbody launcher just looks so fucking awful, but is it such a lovely weapon. Probably my second choice behind the almighty M14 (or an SKS if on the dark side). There is just something so beautiful about banging out single shots with 7.62 that never loses it`s appeal.
  5. Wow. I`m almost speechless.... ...almost. Was it really too much trouble to read even one reply immediately above yours before making that post? Moving to the Tanoa vegetation has most definitely resulted in better framerate and much better visuals. If you don`t have the requirements for the mod, don`t whine about it not working properly. As for a poor update, I`ll chalk that up to saturday night overconsumption. Constructive criticism is one thing, but "Pretty poor update" is just taking the piss considering the unbelievable amount of voluntary work that goes into making a huge mod like this. Nice first post. Well done :rolleyes:

    How to reinstall

    You`ll get there. Just remember - man was never meant to live outside arma for too long. Friends will start to look at you funny. They will say you seem to be looking too far into the distance like you`re hunting that single pixel that moved a bit to the left, and wonder why you are crouching after taking a few steps forward. They just don`t realise. It`s not their fault. Don`t be too harsh on them. Just get it reinstalled, and you can make peace with the world again :)

    Bingo Fuel is impossible?

    As much as I hate it, this mission must be one of the best missions made so far in any arma campaign. It`s not cheatable, it isn`t routinely "gameable". It`s an evil bastard trying to kill you at every opportunity. It never feels unfair, or like the ai is doing it`s usual cheaty terminator crap. It`s one of the very few missions where I`ve felt like I`m properly part of a mission that will die when I do the wrong thing (which is just about anything I do so far). Never got past it yet, and I`m still trying. I`d have endmissioned long ago like some of the previous missions in campaigns that (due to updates, etc) just don`t work anymore, but this one just feels like it can be done given a bit of luck. If it was Jezuro that did this mission, somebody please give him the next campaign, or at least let him remake the awful Apex campaign.
  8. As useful as it may have been after dark at the time, has there ever been a more awkward, heavy, or downright ugly weapon as that IR monstrosity since? What the hell did they actually do with it during daylight hours? Sling it and use pistols??

    3CB BAF Units

    I don`t like spamming the same thing in several different threads, it just seems a bit impolite, so I`ll just throw a huge thanks in this one for all the 3CB work. As a Scotsman, and a nationalist at that, it feels personally awkward to worship anything carrying that particular flag, but it`s a wonderful piece of work, and worth every platitude given to it. Every update is pure gold. Definitely missing that wonderful `tache/face camo combo for the pseudo-falklands units that can be created in Eden though. Those clean faces just don`t cut it :)

    [SP] Clean Sweep - OFP Remake

    So the whole campaign will be done by, say, next weekend? Fantastic :P Joking aside - Thanks for bringing these babies to A3.

    Install steam, log into it, and any games you bought via steam are there waiting to be downloaded/reinstalled.

    [SP] Hold Malden - OFP Remake

    Played through twice so far, and it worked fine. The cutscene camera at the end came in a little early (cutting off half of the last radio message), but that`s all.

    [SP] Sniper Team - OFP Remake

    Thanks for doing these remakes. This one just has a little tweak needed if you ever update the mission - Bobby keeps moaning about the single stanag he`s been given for his M4A1. I`m wondering if you could perhaps bung a few more in his inventory to shut him the hell up.
  15. Thread over here has a description of the view through the scope when powered, although you probably won`t like it too much.... #15 has the relevant info - http://1919a4.com/showthread.php?44651-My-M3-Carbine Those models look absolutely fantastic :)

    los18z - that link is causing a loscon.net cpanel login popup to appear when this page is viewed. Apparently you need to be logged in to view the image (or something else in the link is broken).

    AI Laying explosives

    Possible. I don`t use ACE here, and all the options are there in the command menus right where you`d expect.

    AI Laying explosives

    AI definitely plants explosives, sets timers and detonates on command. Just select the guy with the explosives, and the commands are right there in the (6) action menu. Not sure about dev branch, but it`s definitely there in the current stable.

    Bohemia Revive Icon Marker

    I like your thinking sir. All those times I`ve heard that little voice crying out for help, and looked, and looked, and looked in that tall grass and found nothing....
  21. Nobody has actually said if this is actually fixed yet or not in dev branch. This really, really is a most annoying problem in long missions (the longer the better, as far as I`m concerned). How skipping the intro and not initially loading in a terrain that you probably aren`t going to be using for the mission you are actually going to resume could possibly kill the tasks/team info, etc in the mission you are resuming from a save file in the first place is a massive mystery to me. Yes - by not ticking the skip intro, and not ticking World=Empty, this really annoying bug doesn`t appear, but c`mon. those options are there to make our beloved arma open up much quicker so we can get stuck right into the action asap. For the love of all things shooty, please let this be gone by the next stable branch update.

    Mag Repack

    Been using this for a little while, but as usual, not enough time to say thanks for everything, so thank you outlawled. Moduload, followed by mag repack - essential.

    [SP] In Our Time (Campaign) v1.05

    I`ve been downloading a bunch of campaigns lately (seeing as the apex one is just dreadful - first time I`ve ever said that about an arma campaign...), and just played through this one. Utterly fantastic :) Campaign was absolutely bug-free for me here. Everything worked as it should. Only thing I found that could be close to a bug was not managing to complete the mines objective in the Altis Airways mission, but I probably just didn`t place them in exactly the right spots. Great atmosphere, voice work, a shitload of polish, and fully recommended to anyone that hasn`t tried it yet. Thanks ted_hou, and all involved.
  24. "a sudden surprise" doesn`t quite cover it. Didn`t expect anything post bravo for at least a few months..... Many thanks to all :)

    ETA On Apex Release?

    If you opted in to any of the dev or beta channels in steam previously, just select in the Beta options "None - Opt out of all beta programs". You`ll get the full official release.
