Really busy recently, Sorry. But i'll fix them when I have any time. thanks and keep attention.

Oh. Sorry for hear that. Did you installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package(x86)？

UPDATE [Version Alpha 0.12, 2014-10-31] Fixed "Network Fault or you use illegal save file, please reset the network and do not use other computer to play" bug in some situation. Download the hotfix.

Which model(s) did you find in other mod? Please point it out. We were very care about this when we devloping the mod. Most of the weapons models come from BIS offical Samples pack. some were original made or bought from source model material. So if you can, please point them out.---------- Post added at 23:49 ---------- Previous post was at 23:46 ---------- Thanks Tonic-_-, your explain is more clearly

Sorry for the trubles. I'll fix most of them in next month. Too busy recentlly.

Double click on them. Sorry i forget that. ---------- Post added at 08:25 ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 ---------- Redownload part2_contents and check *.dll files under "LT" folder. And you should be also have a LTLancher folder like the first post in page 1. I think the error will be sloved then. ---------- Post added at 08:28 ---------- Previous post was at 08:25 ---------- Thanks, you right. And just click on them to use. Btw, The cba should and have to be named as "@CBA_A3" not "@CBA"

The host list server is in China. The connection speed is so low to join a worldwide "host". I need some uk us list server to fix this. Anyone can help? ---------- Post added at 23:26 ---------- Previous post was at 23:23 ---------- The dedi-server version is under test. Maybe added soon.

Solohost is start a server by youself. INCURSION and pick a server to join

Make sure you have only one MAC addtress. Then delete the gamecore.sys in LT folder. Retry. Will be ok. But It's maybe a bug.

Yes, If our transfer server work normally, anyone can join the game you host. The network function of LTLauncher.exe is similar to the hamachi, is based on the NAT traversal technology (like p2p download software) instead the VPN of hamachi. It's NOT the some way use the standard arma server browser, arma server browser generally can not find the SOLOHOST. We make a bridge between players. But the function test is not very complete, If you can participate in the test and feedback will be nice. ---------- Post added at 17:55 ---------- Previous post was at 17:51 ---------- Thanks a lot @kecharles28 and @Foxhound!

Mirror Added, Mega worked. Sure, the LT_alpha11_part1_tunba.7z is map standalone and relevant files (structures/plants), You may encounter an error, but it does not affect to use. Thank you @Kremator,@IceBreakr, so glad to see you guys again!

hi, If I guess correctly, There is no one have made brand new Walking/Running/Sprint animations yet. From my new project: New female character with new rig, new animation All things are not bad, besides some looping animation .rtm file Check the picture: or http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff151/armafromz/ANIM.gif Press W, animation running fine, but the character CAN NOT MOVE EVEN 1 INCH! I donn't think it's a config problem, because is same as official, just replace the .rtm file path. So if anyone can solve this proble, It would be very grateful.

Thank u HorribleGoat, Your tips are very helpful, I've cleared that up already. I also found this, hope that can help others who encountered this problem again.

Although I doesn't like fishing, but after read this I was very interested in. It must cost you a lot of time and effort right? thanks a lot, I'm sure I'll try it asap. In addition, if you need some new custom RTM animation files, maybe I can help to create.

@Bad Benson, about the custom environment sounds, In fact I have already started to do so, if you one of the old players, should able to remember my FFAMM sound MOD in ArmA1 times, it needs more time and testing, time is a little luxury to me now. I'll try. @Lexx, suggestions are well worth considering! I may try to improve the project according to you in the future upgrades. Thanks to all the suggestions and kind words.

@victim913 You can read the spoiler of BUGS AND KNOWN ISSUES in release post to eliminate the errors.

Pepole who got error message please read the spoiler of BUGS AND KNOWN ISSUES in release post.

ArmA3 Alpha 0.61.106546 is working fine without error of many pepole. Any one couse the no entry 'bin\config.bin/RscTitles/SplashFromz/Picture.type'. please post what's your ArmA3 version build and what other addons you use, Do read and tell me what says in your .rpt file related with "no entry" and "Picture.type" The .rpt file can be found in your persional profile folder.

@Brain Em, very few structures in this phase, In the real world, these also are uninhabited islands with few man-made features. The recent version of the Vistor 3 PE (BI Tools v2.51 for ArmA2) does not directly support to use many ArmA3 buildings, vegetation or rocks, This may also a reason of no other new islands present since ArmA3 Alpha release. This project has much room for improvement, just wait the new version of BI development tools. If these islands are fit for any type of scenario, according to the needs of the community to carry out the details of later stages of development is feasible. So feedback is important.

Thanks for the support and approve of each individual, I didn't do a lot of work on this island, just show the power of the new RV engine. Really look up to it. Well done BIS! thank you! I may update this work after Beta release and even next, so no worry the possible changes. @Scorch052 Of course, thanks for the uploadï¼ @Lordprimate I didn't show any error, Perhaps the development version change something caused this error, I did not participate in the development version, so what's your version and what other addons you use? However, this error will not affect anything important, it was just a small 8s hint tip in game after entering. If confirmed as a bug, I'll fix it in next update.
