*this thread deserve a kick* In my opinion (which dont worth big since my only exp was in mil duty 10 yrsq ago), during night shooting excercise WE NEVER WAS BLINDED BY OUR FIRE...never. Even with Cal .50 MG on turret WE NEVER WAS. Nothing to say that the flash was so quick you can only see it briefly during daytime if you really checked. I wonder like other why we have SUCH UNREALISTIC thing in arma2 ? And still since arma (nothing to complain for ofp it was good).

1 ) a little trick to drive faster in vehicule: bind "order advance fast forward" to one key. bind "order advance slow forward" to another key. When you are out the road hit the both key and you drive a little faster, not much, but this will not change the kind of vehicule (car will not race a Humvee, and will slow down alot out the road) 2) trick for track ir user: get to ironsight, move the sight left/right and check view, you have a little more zoomed view without having to use goggle (even with M16).

good link, thank you...well this was the first time i tried vtol (just bought arma several day ago). ^^ That's just i forgot arma included it (since in opf no harrier were available).

u forgot somtehing... When u are in an intense firefight and klicking alot your mouse, then the admin did a "wild reassign " without a warning: Did u know which button is by default in OPF ? I personnally think that OPF like all the modern FPS game should ask u to confirm if u want to quit a server while playing *instead of confirming two time u want to play (in lobby & in briefing)? The option actually in OPF are like this: </span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">1 "U want to play ?" if yes go to 3 2 Exit and say "see you soon" ~3600 // wait 30 minute 3 " u really think u want to play this game " if yes got to 5 4 Exit and say "i hope to never see you again" ~3600 // wait 30 minute 5 "make your mind pal, are u really fond of this game to pass the next 30 min playing it ?" if yes go to 7 6 exit and "go to hell and format your hard drive" ~3600 // wait 30 minute 7 "did u have nothing to do today?

Well i guess u all know this pb: When there's a debriefing in MP mission the windows show the "i m ready" to the left and "disconnect" to the right... But in the lobby windows the "Im ready" is in the right and héhéhéhé "disconnect" is in the left AT THE SAME PLACE where u would hit mouse in debriefing ===> this is a verryyyyyy long annoyance, and when i think of it i dunno why i didnt complain *nether do you fine reader*. The only thing to correct this is just to invert maybe *calculate* 3 chars in the config.bin into data.pbo and data3D.pbo ? Well i just hope BIS will heard my righteous complain *motivate by heavens if u like, nope i m only a greedy player that dislike beeing disconnected if the admin locked the server*, and correct this in the next patch. *for OPs that lazzily answer as if u can correct it.... yes u can do it manually.... but the server will recognize u as using not the same file= direct kick for some*

for the parachute.... did u ever heard of Geneva convention about act of war ? In fact irl it's forbidden to shoot at a pilot that ejected his plane. And if u do that IRL u can be court martialed . For the paratrooper, the case is different because it's not a search of safety, the paratrooper is not seeking it.Instead the convention mention it, the soldier can be assimilated as beeing carried by transport.So fire at will *but ingame it ll be very hard to implement it i think.

one thing that me and some of my clanmate have seen is the fact that with resistanct we cant no more lock-on the player-handed missile: the Carl gustav the Strela *thought as chopper pilot i can easily lock my TOW* ---> A clue for you: if u watch the config.bin of Res, and OPF... ALL THE MISSILE HAVE A RATIO TO HIT / RANGE: by example the Maverick has 90% (maximum available) at 800meter.... so if u launch it too close or too away u will have a very poor ratio to hit & then miss

strange that noone dare here to speak from the most CTF played around OPF server *thought i m not a fan of this map thinking it's just a hellish butchery*: CTF Stpierre *with or without fog* I m just a fan of night mission, i feel that the way OPF used the zooming gun (like G36 and all sniper is bad made.... too much precise even at long range). So in all night mission got the advantage u can really sneak *well there's friendly fire but that s the life guys*.

the same thing occur when u are in a jet *i tried with an A10*.... I u go outside the map the wind begin to slowly increase, to a very loud and annoying sound. Well i dont think it's due to breathe no ? Â For crackling sound... i just disabled my EAX and Hardware acceleration AND TOO MY MUSIC INGAME.... yes BIS heard that.... the soundtrack u use is maybe the worst audio codec i ever know *8 years i m doing personnally audio recording i think i know from what i speak*
