    To the people who are playing ArmA, how is it?

    There are no bugs with the flight model. Just because it's not EXACTLY like our beloved OFP, and is more realistic and responsive doesn't mean it's bugged.

    Settings...

    It does work fine, open your ArmA cfg, and change the color settings from 32 to 16, save it, and make the cfg file 'read only.' Make sure you have AA, AF, and shadows off, as well as post processing, and you WILL be able to run it well. You can't expect to run it at high settings with a rig like that, it's not BIS's fault. Would you all rather them make a game that could run on any system that looks like ass? If so, go play OFP. Even then you won't be able to run OFP at full settings.

    A Fix - 16bpp Resolution

    it worked for me

    Laser beams??

    The thing is we are using laptops. Also, after those weird glitches, it will sometimes CTD and windows will appear in safemode, with 6 bit colors.

    Laser beams??

    That's exactly what's happened to me. I thought I triggered what used to be called FADE in OFP, et cetera. Â I was pretty angry, as I have a german physical copy, and a downloaded version from their website! Â Also, when I use -nomap, the splash screen has weird glitches, the more i play, the higher on the screen they go. Almost the same exact computer, and an 11B at that! HP Pavillion dv8000t Pentium T2300 dual core processor @ 1.66 ghz 1 gig ram Nvidia GeForce go 7400, 512mb Conexant high definition audio, driver updated to 3.23.0.0 Windows XP Media Center Edition, updated German ArmA version updated to 1.01, with english patch DirectX 9.0c ArmA runs quite smooth on my not so smooth laptop, even at 1440 by 900, all on normal excep no AA, AF, or shadows. Â The only problem are those strange graphical errors. I have tried installing the DVD game itself, patched, unpatched, with or without the english patch, as well as the downloadable version, and this ALWAYS happens.
  6. Hmm, I'm going to take a shot and go with ACU...hmm... perhaps because It's US Army Issue, if we were deployed to some bum-ass island such as that as an infantry company, we'd be wearing it. It's not a matter of what looks best, it's just the way it is in real life. SF more than likely would have ACUs in that situation, as it wasn't a combat zone, and more of an aid mission, however they would be wearing modified BDU's (woodland) Either way, BIS pretty hit the nail on the head. It's nowhere near perfect, but it's far superior to any other game I've seen. Stick with ACU. If it's good enough for (arguable, for you whiners sake) the best Army on earth, I'm pretty sure it's good enough for ArmA

    US Non-Combat Uniform units for ArmA

    Exactly why I don't wear any, ever. Then again I don't suppose an IED is going to distinguish

    US Non-Combat Uniform units for ArmA

    As for the nad pad, it's better than nothing. We don't wear CIB's on our IBAs or anything, not even on our uniform in country, as all of our 'hooah' badges are pin-on, and cannot be used for airborne operations, much less combat.

    Woodland BDU Soldier

    Wrong...they stryker brigades tested the uniforms that led to the ACU. One Battalion is about to deploy using the new landwarrior system. They use only ACU, I can assure you

    Summer PT's is an excellent idea, as far as nurses and doctors go, they would be in ACU's if they were deployed over there. If under a tent, they would have their blouse off, and a labcoat on.

    US Non-Combat Uniform units for ArmA

    Goodness people, is it that hard to understand everyone in the US Army, in a nutshell, wears ACUs (not literally everyone, but soon to be) I'd like to see a good retexture of the IBA, with added rank and name tapes... and an added molle vest to go over it, as it's pretty much SOP with a lot of units. Â An actual Mich helmet and not the one they have, as well as an actual ACU Uniform, not the pocketless one they have now. Â Also, I'd love to see someone with their sleeves rolled up over there. Â It would also be nice to have a PC instead of that Marine Corp cover the officer has on, as well as proper knee-bows (knee and elbow pads) Â I haven't seen those black ones in awhile. Clavicula, what's your mos? 11B here, 1-20th SFG AL Army NG, 2-58 at sand hill, what about you?

    Sprocket Troubleshooting thread.

    Exactly, I have apparently activated FADE in both the downloaded version from morphicon, AND the German retail version, patched. I have uninstalled, and re-installed, and it's constantly activated, or something of the like. What on earth am I to do?

    OFP/ArmA & Myspace!

    I joined, are myself and a jarhead the only to real-life military personnel in the group?

    Marpat soldiers WIP

    the m16a4 is essentially the a2 with a removeable carrying handle, and removable hand guards... it IS in use, and no one but pogues (people other than infantry), army or marines, use m16a2's... i can assure you it is very much a REAL weapon. and yes kyle, FN make's a lot of the us military's m16a4s, and various other weapons. actually the m16a4 i was issued in infantry basic at 2-58 at fort benning was of FN manufacturing

    Realism soundpack v1.0

    I don't understand why people don't like the sounds, they are generally, and fairly realistic, especially the sonic booms caused by rifle rounds passing close-by. The AT4, and M24 on the other hand...

    STRYKER driver view

    aren't we a genius, the ST does not just transport troops somewhere and leave them, it is a means of support, and three members of the squad are assigned the positions in the vehicle...

    official complaint to BIS

    BIS doesn't create the game for you, they create it because they enjoy it, and to make money, so if you don't approve, don't play it. "2. The fact that you can easily aim with the saw-249 using the quake crosshair while standing and easily hit targets is lame. It's completely arcade. There should be no such reliable shooting from the hip." that is incorrect. i'm an infantryman in the US army, and can say for a fact the saw is at least decent in ArmA. it is used in CQB, and with reflexive fire drills just as much as the m4. it actually IS possible, although rarely done, to shoot from the hip, and it's really not that difficult, much less difficult to hit naything with the saw. then again, what would most of you know about military life other than through flashpoint and i do mean that in the nicest way possible

    Confirmed release dates and countries.

    this is such bullshit, i ordered it from CZ, and a german version (german hasnt arrived as of yet) and it appears i've activated FADE or something like it, perhaps it's starforce... texture glitches, choppier frame rate, and random text here and there. I don't understand why, as I have the legal version!

    FFUR 2006 2.5 ... Full Pack

    Okay, better put: Here's all anyone asking will ever need to know about this MOD, and it's update(s) When the updates are finished, they will be released... ...WHEN they are finished. If there are any errors beta-testers missed, that's too bad. If Thunderbird decides to further update, he will, if he doesn't, he'll let you know, I guarantee it. All in all, there's no use being a pesky little shit asking, you're just using bandwith...

    FFUR 2006 2.5 ... Full Pack

    Better answered, who cares... it's his mod, and he will judge and release what he decides is the best balance of looks and performance...there's really no use asking

    AWM Land Pack

    Could someone please pack all of these addons together and host them, it's a bit ridiculous to download all of that again from OFP infos slow servers
