  1. Anyone have any idea why the Taru wouldn't show up after installing the Heli DLC? Doesn't show under any faction in Editor. Only the Huron is there, and operable, in the editor and in MP. All other DLC features appear to be working - just no Taru. Files have been verified multiple times. Thanks.

    Heli DLC mystery

    Thanks - Yes, I wasn't aware of the lift restrictions. While operating as troop transport I would see other heli's doing sling lifts and carting off armored vehicles. Never paid that much attention until I popped for the Heli DLC and tried to sling lift several heavier armored vehicles - with no success.

    Heli DLC mystery

    Both in the editor and also on a MP server, I cannot sling load most of the armored vehicles with the Huron (once I was able to snag one of the smaller APC's online - sorry, don't know the name of it). They don't register in the SL assistant. I can capture some of the static objects like a fuel tank or an ammo pallet in the editor. I have tried hovering at various altitudes - no joy! I do have the Heli DLC, and I have verified files several times. What am I missing? Thanks
  4. How does one obtain, or gain access to Heli's other than the Ghosthawk, and AH9 variations included with ArmA 3? (I do have the Heli DLC) I am referring to aircraft such as the P-30, Scorpion, etc., that I commonly see in use on MP servers. Thanks
  5. Is there a way to alter keybindings which don't appear in the options menu? I.E., for flight, I would like to re-map the free-view binding, which in my software is [ctrl + Alt-Alt], or the asterisk key on my number pad. Is there an INF or text file somewhere that will allow for more extensive key-mapping than the limited offerings in the Options menu itself?
  6. After completing solo East Wind campaign, going back for mission replays gives me mostly the long pre-mission intro/cut screens and then just bounces me back to the missions list when the scene ends. A few replays successfully start from the mission map and load up and play correctly. Most missions don't - simply playing the intro scenes and then crashing back to the mission list The completed mission list now has several odd repeated mission titles interspersed between the normal titles that would populate the regular list. Saved files exist in the file structure, but are now inaccessible in play, and I have gotten error messages about saved files no longer being compatible with the current Arma version, though I have no DLCs or mods installed - at least not through my own actions. I have received two free add-ons from Bohemia after my initial purchase, though I am unsure whether they are additional campaigns or "DLCs". I can find no way to actually install/activate them, though they show up in my Steam inventory. I actually have a screen shot that shows my corrupted mission list, but don't see any way to post the image except through an external URL. Showcase missions still work, as does the editor, though I'm just now exploring it. The game launches normally into the Dashboard. I am reluctantly ready to try the option of deleting and re-installing Arma, but was hoping for an alternative that might just allow me to repair the files instead.
  7. My character doesn't receive the necessary radio communication on the beach at the start of the "Signal Lost" campaign segment. (The [0-8] action menu comes up blank). I had to get the necessary info as to what to do next from online sources. With that info in hand I was eventually able to reach the destination where "James" is found, but when I arrive there the other characters don't acknowledge my presence - as though I'm invisible! I am completely visible during fire fights however - even through walls! Did the Steam cache check, which replaced one file, but didn't alter the errors I'm seeing. I played through several of the showcase segments and all the segments in this campaign, leading up to this one, with no apparent quirks. I have a query in with Bohemia but haven't heard anything yet. Any suggestions? Should I delete the title and download again from Steam? Thanks.
