Are you going to have new anims in ACE 2? I really like the BIS ones..:D

No Beta. 1.04. I remember in op-flash that option had an effect. but in arma and arma 2 it does nothing. never has...

Just tried that the option doesnt do anything.....:confused: why is it there?

Hey has anyone made a no tracers mod. Dont ask me why I want it..;)

NOOOO! you asked! Im aware the official options wont do it. do you think its a case of finding the pbo and deleting it?

Yeah, try moving the position of the mod@ thing. worked for me..

Ok whats going on here? I just saw a video of bad company 2 and the weapons sound amazing! why oh why cant arma2 sound like this? The feeling of weapons is "for me" the most important part of a war game. is it just an outdated sound engine? or something else? heres the vid. see for yourself..

How can we get this to work with JTD smoke properly? They do "work" together but seem to cause some conflicts. I dont like the blurry smoke from the effects mod. Is it possible just to have the hit effects and sparks but no smoke from this mod. As JTD is the most amazing smoke effect Ive seen in a game. I dont want to mess it up...

Dear opticalsnare, Thank you for this amazing mod. The dust kicked up from bullets is fine IMO. I like it alot. If you were to change anything it would be the sparks from shooting metal with small arms. I use this mod with JTD smoke and they work ok together but sometimes the smoke disappears completely then starts again. Is there any way to turn off opticalsnares smoke and keep JTDs? That is the only real gripe I have. Good work fella.

Very nice addon fella. I like it alot. There are a few problems though. Those glass bugs, Engine start-up smoke plays even when start from flying. Plane looks very basic from a distance, no textures and such. Other than the obvious no damage model thing its great!

I read that Arma 2 hate quad SLI. try disabling one of cards.

Would loading the game from a USB drive help the texture loading problem??

When I Try and use arty on this camp it says cannot reach that area!??

Ok guys heres the thing. Got a mate round the other day for a LAN session. No other problems except one. If I made a mission and I am the host, all is well. Very smooth no probs. BUT... Who ever is not hosting experiences a kind of lag. Not FPS lag but jerky movement of troops and vehicles. Is there a fix for this kind of thing? HP

Damn Im never going to have time to sort that out. Are BIS going to adress this in a future patch??

Huh? Sorry fella but I dont know how to do that. I cant remember where I downloaded it from...:o

I agree. One guy posted saying he saw a soldier once passing out. Ive seen someone pass out too. It doesnt mean it should be included. I personally didnt like the passing out feature. It happend WAY too soon and was just annoying.

My impressions after playing for a few hours are mixed. I love the new bullet impact effects and the rockets on choppers are epic. The AI are very different now, lots of units doing things you dont expect. Not always realistically though. Alot of the time I had units getting in cars and trying to escape even if I was hugely outnumbered. And there are some serious animation problems. Units running on the spot and some very jerky transitions. One of the death animations I saw was great, the others not so good. BIS did a fantastic job with the animations. Making them in some respects look like rag-dolls. Mabey no need to change them...

Not resuming a saved game. playing only user missions made in the editor. I will try maddogs advice and get back to you. Cheers.

Link doesnt work fellas.

The host always has no problems. Its the other PC that has the jerky units..

Playing missions made in the editor. I think arma did this as well. Anyone else had these problems?

Anyone?

Post proccessing is off on both machines. Could it be the network chips? or the fact that I use XP and he uses Vista?

Here, here. Its a game about WAR! The sound should make it FEEL like one.
