In the video he said the ability to go prone. I'm thinking, what you can't go prone in battlefield already !

Arma 2 is a military simulation video game. That is how it was marketed and indeed it lives up to that nicely. It's also the best in the series imho.

O.k. I'm in.. Who is the guy watching tv.. 😉 I love doggy way, you get to watch tv too.

Back up for a day or so. ;)

Scattered maybe, but not lost.

Is this what you're looking for: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9j1fcjlb31qzpwd/script_mando_missile_arma_for_a2_24b45_mandoble.zip?dl=0

Sorry yeah, I took it down, not sure if anyone else was interested. But you got it, which is good.

Hope this helps: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bxdre388v75dioh/AACThwfFZgYLjfRehc6PMQIJa?dl=0

Looks interesting. Not sure how to put a video in directly, so copy/paste. What do you think ?

@Janex Great thoughts on the game. I hope they get to release it, I'll certainly give it a go.

It is a criminal offence to hack either private or public websites here in the UK, as it is in the US and probably most countries. Provided an IP can be located and back tracked to whoever did it, then action could be taken. Here in the UK maximun 2year jail sentence & fine/compensation if found guilty. Not sure about anywhere else. I just googled out of curiosity, quite surprising governments are clamping down big style, well google own the world don't they..

There you go then. Our group has access to all the mods, addons, most full conversions, scripts etc that were on AH from 2007/8 - 2020 (early 2020), some limited after that. There are no mission/scenarios and limited Arma 3 stuff, these were of no value for our gameplay. We have a huge amount of AH stuff ourselves, but didn't know for sure if it was complete, so we reached out to friends to ask if they had AH covered, we thought they may have. They comfirmed that they had, if not everything, more or less everything. They stated that if it was publically downloadable from AH from 2007/8 - 2020 and concerned Arma, Arma 2, Arma 2 OA plus dlc's, they said they had it. Unfortunately they won't share with this community either, I didn't ask why. We are still prepared to share what our group have, provided those interested can tell us what it is they want, we'll look and check and if it's there (from our own collection), we'll put it up on dropbox or similar for a short while, for players to download, then remove it. The offers there anyway. Goodluck for the future to foxhound and anyone that helped make AH the 'one stop spot, for all Arma related mods etc.

Yep, I read through the thread and that about sums it up..

First few I came across: (you need any of these ?) RH_hk416 RH_M4 RH_M14 RH_Mgswp RH_Mk18 RH_PDW RH_Pistol_pack We use a lot of our own stuff, so these are just archived in 7-zip, there will also be unpacked ones to. Probably more if there was more on AH, we'll probably have it. As a group we hold a huge archive of mainly Arma/Arma2/Arma2OA, a little Arma 3 (not much). But getting all that together would be better done with organisation, we haven't the time, but once someone works out that side, we're happy to supply what we have. On the other hand if you know the exact thing you want and need it, put the name on the thread here. We'll have a look, when we see it.

Does that do what you need, or do you need anything else binks related ? (I've updated the previous post)

Does this work for you ? https://www.dropbox.com/s/4glveelqrqmpd9m/bink_usmc_v1.0.7z?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/g0kjhecventu0pa/bink_us_army_v1.7.7z?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/0po5l8tc7meg7yd/BINK_US_Infantry_2005_v1.1.7z?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/7xxj9v8dgx7i7hy/BINK_US_Infantry_2008_v1.03.7z?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/vknzla34vmkg6iq/bink_marsoc_v1.0.7z?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/6dn6qm1dc84m45u/BINK_Army_SF_v1.0.7z?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/hm8znzm3wjes5b3/BINK_OMON_Units_V1.1.7z?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/4i2dgz6yb9usg9n/BINK_OMON_v1.2.7z?dl=0 I have various 'bink' things. Some of the ones I have come across so far.

Very handy and worth knowing, thanks. _______ I have looked at my first 'ex hdd' and most of it is extracted stuff. But there is also around 100gb of 7-zip & winrar stuff which amounts to 1330'ish files. As a group we'll have quite a bit, lot will be double's though, so would have to sift through. Later perhaps when organised. I'll look at the next drive once you find out how your moving forward. Most of the stuff is extracted, huge amount. I could re-zip them, but would need to see if any have been altered (you know for my own use). Anyway, good to hear about the other storage, because free drop box, isn't going to handle it, its full, just 2gb.

Best way forward is to wait and see what files are needed to build the data-base. I looked at dropbox for uploading a number of arma 2/oa islands. At the speed of upload I have here, it will take quite a while to get them onto dropbox for people to access (these are all either 7-zip or winrar). I feel it would be better to wait and see what is missing/needed. Although I'll probably keep putting various arma files up there over the next days/wks.

There is more than just this forum. __ I know the wargaming fraternity will probably hold the archives to the most past content. Private groups is where a great deal of arma history is located/saved. Many of us care deeply about the game. One I pulled out Ext HDD = 960gb ofp/arma related content (no missions), not just AH stuff. On another Ext HDD, I have 860 dl's still in 7-zip or winrar form, not sure what is in there, but its all the series and a lot will be AH stuff.

The value would be in his Archivist work, not in the documents as such.

I agree with more or less everything said in the thread. It is very sad to see AH go, but sometimes running something like this can be very stressful in time and money. Also as said before here, the health of a person or people running sites like these must be thought about and we wish them the best for the future. We run a private group member site around a mod, it's very small but we have a large archive and many members have similar archives of ofp-arma-arma2-arma3 mods, addons, scripts + full conversion mods etc. But the thing foxhound did was keep it all updated very professionally. There was/is everything on there (more or less) that players, that want to fiddle about modding the series, needed. We can but hope it survives somehow. BI, looking at you to help, AH helped you more than you probably think, keeping the series alive. Time to give back. It was a good forum to. ArmedAssault was another good place. Such a shame and very sad.

I'm not sure it's lost as such. I think he will still have the archives, so it may be took up. I agree with everything you said, it's a part of Arma history and without AH, I don't think the series would have the number of players it does. However there are large archives out there with players, I know Len61 & chrisb have huge archives plus we have a very large archive ourselves collected from all over the place. But hosting a site and everything that goes with that, not many people will want to do that. In my opinion I think BI should take it on, it has given them so many players over the years, simply by letting players mod the game via AH. But we'll have to see.

I think if it were mp only (which I doubt for Arma 4), it would mark the end of the series. But I can't see them not doing a sp side, or indeed editor.

@orllak32, I'm sorry but you won't get 60fps with your setup. If you try low settings and say around 2000 view distance, you may be able to play with 30fps (perhaps). It has to be said, if your playing arma as a tactical game, 30fps is enough. But don't put too many ai out there if your making your own missions, only want to meet a handfull at a time, for it to run. Others may be able to help much more with your question. Good luck.

So is amd now a cpu and gpu that can really take on this series ?
