It happens after a while of playing, I have to restart my computer. Basically the game freezes and has red smudges on the screen very misty mild red. My specs: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2GB Crucial DDR2-800 BFG 8800GT OC2 (169.13) Windows XP Home ArmA 1.08

Ahh yes that is possible, I contacted BFG a while ago about general freeze ups in games, they told me to do a BIOS flash update, that solved it for most games, obviously not this

Since installing this I cannot play MP, click to join server, error comes up the usual Send Report/Don't then back to desktop.

I have a 8800GT and after a while it freezes along with either the screen going fuzzy or little line at top goes fuzzy, I have to restart computer, also had an error box come up telling me to reboot and that nv4_disp.dll (something like that) has failed.

I saw this on the Codemasters site, I know Codemasters owns the license thingie, is Bohemia Interactive in on this?

I get in the truck, drive to the destination were Bravo is, they don't get in the truck so I cannot complete the mission. Is there any way of getting around this or fixing it?

We have realistic games such as: Americas Army Armed Assault Operation Flashpoint We have games based more on gameplay than realism: Counter-Strike BF series None, imo, have had a good balance of both, people complain realistic games take too much time and when you get killed you have to walk a heck of a long time again and the realism nuts complain they are too 'noobie'. I have seen many mods that make ArmA multiplayer very good, I want it to go one step further. My point in all this post is; is it possible to a combination Armed Assault and Battlefield? Have the capture points and massive maps, each little village has a flag, fight over the whole map, towns have vehicles etc. What do you think of my idea?

I played CTI on OFP but never new it existed for ArmA yet.

How can I get the layers so I can edit the textures properly? Or are these not available? If so then how can reskinning be done? I was attempting to make a desert T-72.

So how can you reskin then?

Oh ok even better then

Is it possible to edit ArmA pbo's? I wanted to make modifications and things from them for weapons/tanks etc.

Thanks! Edit: I can decode but how do you encode back to BIN ?

How an earth do you open it? I can open the old cpp's in OFP

I just wanted to edit the config files but I can't find any in the PBO's.

I click on the shortcut, runs the intro stuff then goes to receiving... screen then crashes to desktop with the normal, send or dont send buttons. I'm on German 1.02 Can anyone help?

Yep all fine now! V. sorry for late reply

Hello? I don't mean to be impatient but not being able to play ArmA is bugging me

here

Ok thanks. To anyone else that knows about scripting stuff could they also tell me what this means?

I'm currently making all my tanks have realistic armor stats compared to each other, for example: Armor=(Real RHAe value) Hit=(Real RHAe value) Cost=<Can someone tell me what this means?> How can I make it so that if the damage received from another tank is less than that of the armour, no damage is done since it didn't penetrate it? Could it be done with a simple if script? Like this:?

I've seen other mods, BWMOD especially that some missiles have ranges of 8000m but the standard built-in vehicle radar barely reaches 1500m, can a script extend the radars power? This would also help with the already limited view distance.

Ok, thanks for your help!

Ok the AI picks up the enemy plane at about 10km but it only comes on IR, VERY weak, at about 6.5km, how can I make the IR screen stronger? Also what settings hogs the most power because with 5000m view distance on it makes it a bit laggy.

Whats the Unit/Meter ratio so I can set it to real stats? I assume their not metres because the SA-8 Gecko's RangeMax is 15000 and it doesn't see very far. Its supposed to be OFP metres. It just takes some adjusting to get an accurate distance. The sensitivity is the critical thing it seems. The higher the sensitivity the better It also depends on the ground in front of the unit. AI cannot always see through the hills! So place your radar either on open flat ground or high up. BUT you have to remember that the AI and the radar is affected by the view distance you set in game so the actual detection distance will vary! So if you set a 1k view distance the Ai Radar may only see 3km. Set the view distance to 5km and it may see 10km. There is no magic figure; it simply depends on your scenarios. Does that affect me as well? I was hoping since my view distance is about 4000m so I could use the IR to pick up stuff up at 15000m and destroy it with a missile. So does that mean I am limited to 2xView Distance as well? How many OFP meters = Real Meters?
