Thank you very much. Klavan

Uh well, if you're not a purist WINE can run it (and also the modding tools) quite good as far as I remember.

This would be simply great! Let's hope... Thanks Milyardo for sharing this.

@SHWiiNG I agree with you about the archery "issue". It looks more like modern sniping than ancient practice. I really appreciate more the medieval tournaments with simply wood longbows and arrows wich happens during the summer in my country.

Black hole all the way. Far less agony, both for us and the planet. Anyway yes, the end is near IMHO, but asteroids or black holes aren't needed: human kind is more than enough for this task.

@arigram Are you talkin' to me? I'm not pessimistic and I don't give up with WINE: actually it's installed in my OS and I use it with regularity to play some games. But it's true that in many cases it takes a relatively great amount of time for some games to run fine with it (and I agree with you about the reasons). The point is that ArmA2 is going to be released within one year I guess, that's why I said that day might be too late for ArmA. Oh and btw, talking about gaming on GNU/Linux, I think it's worth to take a look at PlayOnLinux project. IMHO it's very promising.

Overall performance was very good as I wrote at the end of AppDB submission. It was impossible for me to compare performance in terms of FPS and so on between myowndistro+WINE and XP as the second were already removed from my PC at that time. It's a pity: I had tested all the modding tools (both for OFP and ArmA) at the same time and apparently they ran fine. Anyway I agree with Baddo: if ArmA it's going to run under WINE one day It will be too late I guess.

Good luck with this attempt, but personally I don't think a solution will pop-up anyway, at least in the near future. Oh, and about OpFlash running under WINE here's my experience: link.

Congrats to Spain: a well-deserved victory! The final result were the one I hoped for.

I wonder if Italy would have beated Spain our geman friends would have said the same kinda words...... Me feel sad for Turkey.

Spain played better and deserved to win. Stop. @AimPoint You know, maybe someones here feels like they're avenged now (link)

Portugal - 1st in its tournament = out Croatia - 1st in its tournament = out Holland - 1st in its tournament = out Spain - 1st in its tournament = Â

I successfully installed OFP GOTY yesterday under Ubuntu OS using WINE after more than a year of inactivity and I'm seriously thinking about riding the horse again. Mission making and few of modelling were my fields of action and althought I'm quite rusted I'm going to give it a new try while waiting for ArmA II. Klavan

@Colossus Watch for the PSU: I had similar problems a while ago and they were due by a faulty component. Also you should watch for the RAM. Klavan

I'm with you. Luckly here in Italy after 8 ( ! ) editions, the attention of the sheeps-people toward such formats seems faded a lot. Let's hope. Klavan

ArmA Talon Klavan

I wasn't serious..... Klavan

Doesn't the US Army lowered the minumum recruitments standards recently? Maybe this is a consequence.... Klavan

If ARMA II will prove to be worth the money I will get it but I will not buy it in a store. I'm tired to donate my money to distributors, sellers, and so on. It's time to cut those dry branches. I want to buy it online, but I want to get it without crappy protection systems that could cook my optical drive and to pierce my ears, I want the possibility to backup it on CDs/DVDs/USB drive and the possibility to re-install it on my machine endless times. Too much requests for something I'm going to pay for?

Probably you're right. The girl is a last-minute addiction, as yesterday she were'nt present. Moreover Aladygma is the anagram of the word amygdala, which is a specific part of the human brain. No Cloverfield related but we'are going to get another viral at least. Klavan

Since ARMA II will involve USMC all I hope to see is a (reasonably) complete set of USMC weapons/vehicles/aircraft/choppers. As for the OPFOR: (reasonably, within the possibilities) a piece for every kind of the newest russian equipment (a tank, an IFV a chopper and so on)

While wandering here and there on the web i found this: Aladygma.com After it is is loaded on your browser right-click and select all: some small white spaces will appears on the upper left and right then click 'em. Rumors says this this the Cloverfield sequel. On youtube there are some videos but I doubt they're real. I also saw some images of destructions, but I think they're fake (and low-quality). Let's see.... Klavan

Half Life 1. Since I'm arcnophobic fighting that giant spider was very scary for me. I cleary remember myself jumping left and right like a monkey while standing in front of my PC.

Although I'm not actually into ArmA I really enjoyed the open-source-like spirit of this initiative. Very well done BIS. Klavan

Eeekk. STOP! You do know Italians had camps and were occupiers ALONG with Nazi Germany? Once you recognize the death camps Italians set up we can talk about what happened to your people. I say yay for Kosovo. I don't think they belong under Serbia. Did you read the entire post? I said we were wrong, like the serbs in 1999. Don't try to teach me the history of my country. Klavan
