Or someone opens the mission Bohemia has created and figures out how they have done this... Because in the showcase fighter jets you buddy the AI takes off right before you do. I'm also looking how, and got no time to spit out the folders to find the showcase mission file. But just saying, it is possible...

Hey I wanna talk about the ban system in place atm on current servers. And i'm wondering if Bohemia is planning to finally change something in this regard any time soon. Every arma player knows how bad the banning system is right now, scripters fly under the rader while hackers have the time of their life. But that is not where i wanna talk about, because even how bad this is, this is not the worst thing out there. While i do like the idea of being able to host a server whit whatever i want on it but the pros vs the cons is it far from worth it! Because while everyone can do that, they can do everything they seem fit either... People are getting banned left and right for langues because they said f*ck once or they didn't respond on the dime. Server admin really do whatever they want and while understandable to the level off they can. You know what the other-side is, is that Bohemia owns this game and this banning system. While they can prevent a lot of the banning being needed in the first place (changing the designs of sudden missions so camping ain't even possible, safezone, whatever u get the point.) Just an example of myself, got banned yesterday in KotH. Reason: insult, I called him a noob... Situation: I landed a heli full whit infantry around 20 / 30 meters from tower 3 while this car comes driving up from the other side. Knowing he couldn't do sh*t he didn't even bother to get out either so he drove (tried to) into me, didn't end well for him, guys jumped out and blazed him before he came real close. While the server rules state clearly that that is against the rules, me stating him the rules in global channel gets me banned for insults... While again, Bohemia i look to you, why the f*ck do we have a global chat in arma? beside altis life and the zombie server. The problem is that Bohemia has the solution of a lot of problems we do encounter. And to mine opinion it is about time they also do so... In the end admins who do random banns or banns whit no reasons do make the game look bad. I get the entire thing of ey he paid for it so he can do whatever he want, till the point off... It still is a arma server and not to mentioned everyone has already paid for the game. So to say that you can do whatever you want whit a server, is a bit big talk. There is a difference between making use or abusing the admin system in place.

Take zeus and add resource gathering + a way of building and destroying bases on a rated way and you got yourself the next gen command and conquer already...

Here: http://www.hec.wtf/wiki/index.php?title=ARMA_3_Standard_Ammo_Boxes_und_Supply_Crates u can see which boxes contain which ammo. Now the ammo to refill for you vehicles is a completely different box. As example the ammo vehicles have no weapons and no ammo inside of them but they are used to rearm vehicles (cars/helis/planes). Just park a car beside the ammo vehicle/box/pod and while u in the driver seat look to the ammo vehicle/box/pod and u get an option to rearm. (not 100% sure about this but I think this goes automatically by AI controlled vehicles whenever they park beside one.) Side note, you can also use vehicle rearm scripts aldo are they some harder to set up ofcourse... : http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=19735 but look much better then without. The ammo vehicle/box/pods are more for rearming repairing and refueling the vehicles without need of any of those scripts. So long story short. Ammo Vehicles / Ammo Pods / Vehicle Ammo Boxes are Empty and are only to rearm vehicle mounted guns. Normal boxes like : "http://www.hec.wtf/wiki/index.php?title=ARMA_3_Standard_Ammo_Boxes_und_Supply_Crates" are for you and you men to use.

http://ace3mod.com/ . Install ACE3Extract both CBA and ACE3 .zip files into your Arma 3 folder. By default it is located in:32-Bit - C:/Program Files/Steam/Steamapps/Common/Arma 3/ 64-Bit - C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/Steamapps/Common/Arma 3/ After extraction you should have the @ace and @CBA_A3 folders inside your Arma 3 folder. It is a rather big mod with many features unheard of in the base game. Unlike in the base game medical care has a use to, from instant dead protection to having to bondage your wounds, with the risk of them opening up again while sprinting. It gives the game more feeling to it, and for new players a great addition since you got the option to be protected against magic arma bullets... (eka the pistol from 1000m headshot thing) Guide for everything is on that website or have a look at google / youtube guides.

The "init.sqf" and "description.ext" are like optional things to tell the server to do... They are not required by any mission to runn, however some scripts need to be pointed to the right folders, or servers need to load the right files. If Heli_Repair.Stratis is just a folder put it in ...\Documents\Arma 3\mpmissions\ launch the game boot up the editor and find the name in the editor. What he means to say is you can test it out first before using it on you missions on this way. Whenever you want to use it on your mission(s) you have to copy the lines inside the "init.sqf" and "description.ext" that points to the script to your own mission and wala. If it is a PBO file...

It is double, yes you can and no you can't. :P have a nice day... :unsure: while you can press "U" to switch to any other AI and sellect the teamleader until he dies and repeat the progress... :wacko: Or you gotta find a mod that allows you to take over command with any unit you playing. Ace has the option for you to take over command. Don't know any other mod that allows you to do it... :ph34r:

While this is definitely true, a well timed flare does half the work... Just make sure you flare at the moment they shoot the rocket, not when it is close as many do. But again flying without flares ain't a problem to as-long you use the terrain to you advantage...

U mean for when u make a mission yourself? Source: https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/149935-disable-ambient-sounds/ Otherwise the mission maker will decide if it is in there or not. Some servers have options to disable environment separately do but those are server side scripts and no mod you can download.

While using the zeus i find myself a lot of time recreating the same mini bases over and over again. For example 1 big military tower with 1 small at the side, some buildings and some environmental stuff... The thing is with the pre builded bases only changing up a few things makes it already feel fresh to the player. While at the same time it saves so much time for the game master (zeus) at that moment. Looking to what is possible and what has been done i really think adding something that ports us in a arsenal. With the normal zeus interface enabling you to place objects and save them for later use in the real zeus. Kinda again like how the arsenal is right now but instead of weapons gear etc etc you do it now with the premade bases((empty)groups>objects). So we can spent loads of time making cool looking working bases while at the same time it takes us less time to place them when we playing. B)

Protector Gun Update! Almost all clothing has been fixed EXCEPT the ghillie suit. Just like my old screenies show (nothing has been changed) the protectors iron sight is useless while wearing a ghillie suit.

Being honest I think this one needs some attention. Seeing the progress the launcher is making I really think this is one of them gems to... While there are third party programs just going direct control and spamming enter once every 3 secs is the way we do it now. It might be a great thing to instead que up for a server and see you position in queue, timer ain't even needed...

Hey... It seems the protector (gun from apex) has an unintended bug in it. While you look at the first picture keep an eye on the left thumb while going to the next picture. The left thumb will be in front of you iron-sight while aiming it blocks about 60% - 70% of the iron sight. I don't think this has been done intended, or has it? Solution is to put the thumb a minor bit to the left and this problem is past us... Pictures bellow: Edit: So I've done some more homework on the matter, and it seems to be a bug with the clothing. Most likely has this riffle been made with someone wearing no clothing or atleast nothing on hes hands. Because this happens with all clothing, with a ghillie even more then anything else. But as said when you are naked there is nothing like this, it all fits perfectly. Some more screenies: Source:

Thanks for you comment, yea exactly that is why posted it. I prefer iron sights above any scope for close fire fights but now i'm forced to use the ACO scopes on this weapon.

Yes make sure you always save you game before you quit. Idk the name of the button but at the left side of 1 (`/~) opens the koth menu where you can save progress or change view settings etc etc. The menu is also accessible though the scroll menu but when the game ends you need that button anyway. Always make sure you game has been saved before fully disconnecting from any koth servers. Again when a game ends it is a good idea to save it since a lot of server tend to crash right before they suppose to start a new round. Side note this should all be behind us after the update V10, although is that been delayed since 2015. V10 should bring changes and fixes regards data to koth so this should be behind us... Right now the auto save sometimes does nothing, and sometimes saves whenever it feels like it.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but to my knowledge there is a big diference between a VAC ban and a Global BattleEye ban. While as example a CoD bann won't carry over to arma, while being globally banned on any server for hacking will get you a Global BattleEye ban. With those banns you won't be able to play any of the servers where they have the BattleEye on... Side note the thing that people forget with VAC is that arma has no VAC security so you will never be able to get a VAC playing arma. While on the other side arma has BattleEye and this does exactly the same but then only for games from Bohemia. When at the steam store page you can see which games have VAC and which don't...

Since the eden update i've got this problem on all my misions. I even made some new empty ones which resulted in exactly the same issue as u see in the video. (Which had beside desc.ext nothing inside them at all!, i tried scripted player already to whitout success) The mision(s) have no failure when there is no player alive, and the server is persistent. I've changed nothing, this all happened after the eden update alone. Does anyone has an idea of what this can be? onLoadMission = "Fresh"; author = ...; onLoadName = Fresh...; onLoadIntro = "Co op Mission" onLoadMissionTime = 0; onLoadIntroTime = 0; class Header { gameType = Coop; minPlayers = 0; maxPlayers = 32; }; enableDebugConsole = 1; loadScreen = "Loading.jpg"; respawn = 3; respawnDelay = 3; respawnTemplates[] = {"Revive", "MenuPosition"}; respawnOnStart = -1; debriefing = 1; disabledAI=1; showGPS=1; showCompass = 1; showRadio=1; showWatch = 1; briefing=1; weaponPool = 0; reviveDelay = 10; reviveForceRespawnDelay = 10; reviveBleedOutDelay = 600; showHUD = 1; scriptedPlayer = 1; corpseManagerMode = 2; changing respawnOnStart = -1; into respawnOnStart = 0; doesn't change a thing either. Thanks!

The problem is that Bohemia has the solution of "a lot" of problems Take invade and annex for example, why no one is playing it anymore just being honest... People got mainly banned for team-killing at base while Bohemia could have given the tools directly to prevent that whit a "real" working safe zone. Or for being in the pilot slot and not being on a teamspeak server because sorry sad to say but arma ingame voice just sucks balls, again they have the solution if they wanted too... The thing whit mods is that mods them-self bring so much problems whit them that the majority not even bothers whereby the minority will keep playing arma. Mods are a great thing to test things, and a wonderful "addition". The game should not relly on mods this heavily especially while we know the majority is limited to the base game. Nor whit the protection of a base a safe zone scripted by a modder will never be as good as one made by Bohemia themselves. Just to make myself clear, I won't call steam workshop mods...

JIP is working as of intended after the last hot fix! :D 50 relogs further and no single seagull spawned. ^_^ (requesting topic lock pls)

Pm has been sent to razazel already whit everything he needs. It is now hoping they find a fix soon... Enable AI for temp fix btw. disabledAI=0; inside your description.ext ^ You do need to manual disable them each time you start the mision. But ey better than nothing for now ... (Edit, after some time even that doesn't help... >.>) Yea that is what hapens at me main mision... Damm that thing got a beating from the eden update lol, assume starting over is faster on that.

yea i get you thanks anyway ;)

Made a test, 1 whit bin on while the other had it off. Both freshly made and there was no difference, 2 relogs > bird. It is not random bud, it is always after those 2 relogs... And the thing is, when this happens on a server you are forced to alt + f4 because nothing works.

Because AI is disabled, after xx times re logging the server just throws the character out the window, yelling / see u in the afterlife... p.s. here u got a bird. (or something similar) To be real honest i don't get it how much more clear we can be about our problem? Srry bud i don't feel like doing this or that anymore... Eden is broken and we all know it. You can try it yourself if you wish to, u have eden to so this bug to! Its just a shame that i'm wasting €37.99 of server cost, while the real dev ask for a repo? I mean i can understand that he does, the forum is full of trolls. But check you facts and you see quickly who is one and whos not. Because they didn't allow us to release missions in the beta whit the EDEN editor. We had "NO" way of testing this out, beside the minority who changed hes server to dev build. There are more ways that lead to rome, don't get me wrong i like the new editor. But beside placing some items here and there it is useless into my eyes! I mean come 'n ffs they don't even add a event-handler when u dress them? ... -.- '

No this has nothing to do for units on the map or not, reaching group cap or not. The thing is that this happens at every mission you make, scripted or not. The video is a DEMO Mission made whit the eden editor. 2 Squads patrolling, 1 mortar that is all... But again on me scripted missions where there are no AI (except the once which are presence is 0 as zero point ofc...) So yes i think it is very unlikely you reach squad cap whit 3 squads out there, or at scripted missions whit 0 squads out there. Np, will clean the server and redo it. (Update) still the same issue, made the mission as clean as possible. Spawned in 1 (player) playable unit whit 1 respawn module. It seems to be a problem whit the respawn and/or revive? Because while you into (singleplayer mode) no respawn this issue does not happen. But yes to have everyone switching over at every death on multiplayer? doesn't seem such a good idea. (link sent in pm) How to create the bug? few rules, server has to be persistent. While the server is empty (off players) relog twice (have to fully disconnect from the server) and you spawn in as a bird.
