Really impressive. The German team is playing very well. They simply crushed Argentina. Well deserved victory. It's really a joy to watch them play, lot's of goals too. I personally believe that they can win this world championship, but we'll see what happens in the next games. I hope the final will be Holland against Germany as in 1974. In any case a great team. My congrats to Germany. Deutschland über alles.:D Kind regards

XP-home 32 bit service pack 3 5.1 2600 build 2600.

Hi there Yesterday I purchased OA retail version. I installed the game. Disk space available was still 20 GB, disk space requested was 8.5 GB. After patching to 1.52 I tried to defrag my C drive with windows standard defrag, but I received an error message that it was impossible to complete operation due to several files, all ArmA related. I had a look at the report but was unable to understand why the heck I wasn't able to defrag my drive. I'm afraid that this might cause an impact on performance since my C drive now is badly fragmented.:mad: Is there any free defrag programm that someone could recommend to me, that might be able to do the job.:confused: Any help would be really appreciated. thanks in advance Kind regards

Got the same problem. When assigning new key bindings as soon as I click next CTD. I had the same trouble back in ArmA II.:( Hope this can be fixed soon otherwise it's quite a pain, because I'm playing with my custom setup for 9 years now. Kind regards

Hi there thanks to all of you, for your kind advice. I opted for the Ultra Defragmenter for the fact that you can defrag also single folders. It did the trick.:bounce3: @ Richey79 I was convinced that windows standard defragmenter needed only 10% free space avalaible, obviously I was wrong. The topic can be closed. Thanks once again for your help.:D Kind regards

Hi HitmanFF I'll gonna dl the programm suggested by you. I'll revert tomorrow evening, I won't be able to check it earlier. Thanks for your advice.:D Kind regards

Please fix the transparent bug with heavy fog settings in good ole OFP I had never problems with that, nor in Armed Assault. Ai driving is still messed up. Try to place a motorized group in the editor. The AI group leader is always boarding the second vehicle instaed of the first which leads to a big mess.:mad: AI group leader has no idea when AI's are getting killed in vehicles and ordering them endlessly to disembark, I couldn't even reveal to group leader that AI was dead in the vehicle and he continued repeating for more than 30 min the dead AI to disembark. I was so mad so I shot him.:mad: Since patch 1.07 some of my missions are broken. I added a M9 in a civillian units init field by addweapon command. I picked up ammo from a crate but was unable to reload. Reload option also disappeared from action menu. Having only troubles with civillians and addweapon command.:eek: I would really appreciate if someone could confoirm this in order to understand if this is something only on my side or if 1.07 patch introduced this. Formerly it was no problem. Thanks in advance. Kind regards

Same problem here. Maybe it might be due to heavy traffic. kind regards

Since applying the patch I'm unable to reload the pistol I added in a civillians unit init field by addWeapon command i can pick up all M9 magazzines but I can't get the damn pistol reloaded.The reload has also disappeared from the action menu.:mad: regards

I suppose that you are running all the mods in separate MOD folders or did you place all the mods in one Mod addon folder all together? Do you use a Mod launcher programm? I believe that there are some Mods causing a conflict, because I just tested the new patch 1.07 on Namalsk and had no probs with that, no crashing at all. I must admit that I'm not running a lot of major mods like ACE just some addons which I placed in a Mod folder together with Namalsk. Haven't tested the other Island yet. I suggest you to do some trial and error to see if one of the major mods are causing some conflicts. I honestly have no clue why you are crashing and I haven't seen any 1.07 bug reports that usermade Island are causing a CTD. Sorry but I can't help you at the moment. :confused: How does your target line of your MOD Arma exe look like? kind regards

Hi there AI groupleader does not recognize dead AI's in vehicle and continously order them to disembark, which drives you nuts after some time. Tried to reveal that AI was dead but with no success so he continued to order the dead AI to disembark. After 3 min I set radio volumn to 0 in the audio options for preventing me to go insane. :681: When placing in the editor a motorized Infantry group the AI leader still continues to board the second vehicle instead of the first one which messes up the formation. Both vehicles are ramming each other because subordinate AI driver of the first vehicle tries to follow AI group leader in the second one. This is freakin' hilarious.:banghead: kind regards

No problems over here. In any case you should run it from a seperate MOD folder. What Mods are you running? kind regards

Hi Leon86 thanks for the advice. yeah I know that I have to play with low details and my budget is limited around € 700. I'm very often on the road due to RL issues and therefore I wanted to purchase a notebook so I could play an edit when I'm not at home which is quite often. Thanks for your advice kind regards

Hi to everyone I’m about to purchase a notebook, but I’m in need of an advice which of these models would be better to run ArmA Processor Intel® Core™ i5-430M (2.26 GHz, Turbo Boost up to 2.53 Ghz, 3 MB Cache L3). RAM 4 GB DDR3. Hard Disk 320 GB. Video card NVIDIA GeForce GT 310M with 1024 MB dedicated. Display 15,6". Mastering DVD. Wi-Fi 802.11bgn. WebCam. Windows 7 Home Premium.

Thanks in advance Kind regards

Hi Commander1985 really great work on your Island. just tested Ai driving skills on Ovaron. as long as you order the Ai with on map clicks to their destinations they have no trouble at all to reach the designated areas. They are crossing bridges without any problems and have no troubles with pathfinding. in case you are using waypoints they are terribly in trouble. I need to do some further testing though. In any case thanks for your hard work, the island is really beautiful. kind regards edit: Did some further testing with setting way points. I used a humvee but the AI driver crashed after while hitting trees which are placed too close to the road Grid 058077. AI pathfinding is working even using waypoints, fact is they crash, but as already mentioned there are some trees placed dangerously close to the road which gets the AI driver badly in trouble. So using conveys and support trucks will most probably be an issue for mission makers.

Sad news indeed. All my best wishes to him and his family. Hopefully everything will turn out well. Kind regards

My congrats there's no honour in modern soccer today. Too much money involved, it turned to business and profit like everything else. I hate those pussies which are diving to the ground by the slightest touch, but unfortunately this is a common phenomena in modern soccer today. In any case well done. kind regards

A game like ArmA will always have bugs. I don't think that from release date BIS can release a bug free game, it's simply not possible due to the magnitude of their games. You could playtest for 2 years and you won't be able find them all. First of all ArmA II had a huge trouble shooting section of hardware problems. Technology advances continiously. How many thousands of different setups have people when playing PC games. It's not a standard setup as on consoles. They had to deal with a lot of incompatibility issues which aren't really fixed today, they keep working and improving. OFP ran well with patch 1.96. AI is something really different than in other games I believe it's not possible for the time being to programm a perfect AI behaviour in an open World game like ARMA. In other wargames you are forced to follow a path. AI's are restrained only in certain areas, you don't have the freedom of movement to go and attack from which direction you want. I love BIS games because of the freedom you have when playing them The campaign was bug ridden and I honestly don't know if it would have been possible to foresee all bugs in such huge missions. I don't want to excuse a failed quality control with that. This has definitely prevented BIS from making much more money. Once you are labeled for developing buggy games it is really hard to get these rumours corrected. This is something people really don't understand and in business terms it is something really damaging to a company. One companies loss is another companies gain.:D In any case, I know what I'm going through when buying BIS games, and I know also that they will fix as much as they can. I believe a game as ARMA will never be perfect and since I'm aware of that I can accept certain things which others evidentially can't. The money I invested by buying their games stands in no relation of the payback I received in terms of fun. Fact is . . . or you get hooked by the game or you don't, it's as simple as that. People have the right to play what they want and what gives them the most fun. I prefer ArmA over all other games so that makes me probably a fanboy,it's just that other games don't give me the same satisfaction. Just my 2 cents kind regards

Yeah absolutely awesome vid. Can't wait to get my hands on it and play it myself. The map looks really outstanding with all the trenches, bunkers and fortified positions.Really, really outstanding work. Keep it up. :D Kind regards

Well I guess the situation is far more complicated and tricky since some people have problems with CTD's meanwhile others have not. Therfore I believe it's very difficult to establish what is the reason for the crashings. And everytime the beta changes people which have not experienced former crashes now have to deal with them. kind regards

Sorry for digging up this old thread, but I have still issues noted with AI driving. When you place motorized or mechanized infantry in the editor for eg. the commanding AI never boards the 1st vehicle, he boards always the second one and here starts some real mess.:D The AI driver of the second vehicle always gets stuck and rams several time the first vehicle which does everything possible to complicate the situation because the AI tries to get behind the second vehicle to follow the commanding AI.:confused: I've witnessed some many times really freakin' hillarious situations it's really no fun no more.:( In good ole OFP I've never noticed such a mess nor in Armed Assault. Can't this be fixed somehow. I mean the commanding AI of a motorized Infantry group should always board the first vehicle and I'm pretty sure that they would got stuck less. Any feedback on that issue would really be appreciated. Thanks in advance Kind regards

Use the search button on the user mission thread inserting keyword Panthera. It will list all the missions which have been made so far for this map. Kind regards

Oh wow. That's awesome news. Wish you good luck. I would love to play on a great jungle map. hope you can make it perform well. regards

Use in addition to doTarget R1 doFire US1; R2 doFire US1; put that code snippets in the respective units init field. No need to run 4 small code snippets from an external script. sleep won't work in init fields regards
