Try setting AToC=0 in your config file (something like My Documents\ArmA2\Arma2OA.cfg), find AToC=7, change it to AToC=0 and save

There are 2 reasons for that: a) the photo is almost 40 years old (I believe its from the Dhofar Rebellion in the early 70s) b) British troops, British special forces in particular, prize training before equipment. Certainly back then it wasn't unusual to see them using old arms & equipment. This was due to financial constraints and a healthy scepticism of new-fangled technology (that rifle originates from WW1!). More recently the British Army has decided to rerturn to service an APC that is almost 50 years old! Yes because experience is superior to strength. As for age, it depends, the oldest front-line troopers are prolly early 40s but instructors might push that to late 40s, possibly early 50s?

I worked out which of the dozens of pbos was repsonsible for triggering that error message. The reason is that I don't use all of COSLX. I like some of the pbos but not all and I'm sure that I'm not alone. My remark was that slx_wounds.pbo has a dependecy that isn't documented. Seeing as you've documented the dependecies at the start of this thread I thought that it'd interest you and others who might be experiencing the same issue. You figured it out now?

I can confirm this too.

I can confirm this.

Sure. I didn't mean to suggest that you divert your meagre resources to this. Lord no! Back to the galley you whining curs! Let us the community feed from the scraps of your table. Looking forward to your video of the test sessions.

Thanks I figured it out myself. I also managed to narrow it down toslx_wounds.pbo It seems that it requires slx_cloud.pbo Maybe that should be added to the readme.

I'm encountering the following error slx_cloud\flatsmoke.p3d not found. Despite searching I cannot find a solution. Does anyone know which pbo is causing this? And/or which pbo can solve it?

I think they are still relevant but IIRC the author was working on an updated version for OA. He mentioned that he was about to release it but held back because he wanted in implment some tritium optics. Shame really that he didn't release these pbos (which are excellent IMHO) and release the optics later. Maybe if someone contacted him...

I can't wait to try v2.6! Since you're talking about Brit, 44 and COOP, how about a few missions based on Operation Houndsworth? I think it'd be great because: Chernarus isn't that different from the topography and fauna of the Burgundy Insertion was by parachute (easier to implement than amphibious landings?) 'A' Squadron 1st was a relatively small force (18 officers and 126 men) divided into 18, 8-man patrols (perfect for small COOP missions) Squadron's objectives varied considerably (destroy supply dumps, block the 2 railway lines, call in CAS, escape ambush, defend against assault) They travelled in Jeeps armed with Vickers K MGs that you've already modeled Here's another decent article (warning PDF) The Farmstead mission from Hidden & Dangerous' Sabre Squadron also provides excellent inspiration. Does anyone know if there's anyway of importing their maps into A2/OA?

Looks like Oktane's found a reliable RSS feed and fixed his automatic builder: http://506.jestservers.com/scripts/oktane/noblur/okt_noBlur_OA_beta_85510.7z

Unless I'm mistaken, Arma X Anniversary includes A2 as well as OA. So I think he's good on the front. MasacruAlex: IIRC you simply need to: - install the latest CBA this means extracting the @CBA folder into your Arma2 directory - run Combined Operations (you'll probably have 2 other shortcuts, Arma 2, Operation Arrowhead)

Since you're looking to re-create the conditions of an Insurgency then I strongly recommend adding more civilians. An increased number of civilians would really add to the tension as it'd: a) harder to spot insurgents b) increased risk of collateral damage (is a player's score negatively impacted by civilian casualties and/or deaths?) c) act as an indicator of imminent ambush, e.g. as insurgents are about to attack, the civilians in the vicinity could flee... Don't get me wrong, I really like Insurgency, I'm only try to help

Brilliant! If the rest of your models are of this quality, this'll be brilliant. I can just imagine the Great War or even skimirshes from the 1920s (Chinese Warlords, Insurgency in South Americas, etc.).

Actually this might have nothing to do with ACE2 but rather bugs in the A2 engine. Believe it or not the latest beta patch looks like they've finally quashed a bug which mean that all ballistics overly-reduced by range

Can you confirm that your recommendation is remove SLX_Mod_Man_Armour? Can you also confirm that this is because otherwise it requires 3-4 times more shots to kill? Finally, can you confirm that you recommend including SLX_Mod_Man_Armour if we use SLX-wounds.pbo?

85478: is out and looking good. Could you generate us another noBlur patch? Cheers!

I was (in load order) CBA (0.8.0.167), SLX (CO), MMA (latest), ASR (latest) and a recent beta (85330).

Ditto

I'm afraid that I've no idea as I've got all the expansions. To be honest, if you like the game, grab the expansions as they're only €9 each and offer new units, weapons and campaigns too. Moreover the PMC campaign can be played in co-op (with a buddy). The A2 campaign can be played with up to 3 other players but neither the OA, nor BAF campaign can be played in co-op. But if you're thinking of buying CO + BAF + PMC then you might as well get the Arma Anniversary X pack. For only €8 extra you also get Cold War Assault (OFP), Armed Assault (ARMA1) and Queen's Gambit (A1 expansion). It may sound like a lot but you're getting a HUGE amount of gaming there. Literally hundreds of hours of gameplay.

I noticed it too last night but I'm not using GL4. In fact last night we were very pleased with the new SLX Lite until the OPFOR AI started acting rather weirdly : AI freezing and increasingly long hiccups. Next week we'll not use SLX Lite to be sure that it is the cause of these errors.

CO is A2 + OA. CO does not include BAF or PMC, both of which are expansions for OA. However with CO you will still be able to play BAF and PMC missions. The difference is that BAF/PMC textures and sounds will be of lower quality. If you want to grab BAF and PMC, you can buy them online here for €9 each: http://www.sprocketidea.com/joomla/index.php?page=shop.browse&category_id=2&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=57

IIRC Celery released an A2F version of his Chernarus Apocalypse mission

85330 is now fixed! http://506.jestservers.com/scripts/oktane/noblur/okt_noBlur_OA_beta_85330.7z Many thanks!
