That is just speculation and the only thing for curtain is that you need a video card that has the pixel shader 3.0 technology or higher so that means instead of arma's recommended cards they would now be the minimum. and I hardly believe you would need dualcore I actually think that you would have the minimum specs for ArmA II if you get ArmA I's recommended and to be sure search for the current perfect ArmA I rig and I expect you would be able to play ArmA II okay An other thing you could do is search the xbox360 specs and try to get a system that matches those

Looks like you have created your own map called Durgs Vegetation Fix? I think this because you say: file is located in the "ARMA\Durgs Vegetation Fix\@Durgs Vegetation Fix\tools" folder If you look yourself there is the @Durgs Vegetation Fix folder IN the Durgs Vegetation Fix folder So just extract that folder remove the one without @ Hope this helps

There have been request to patch the controllers controls in a patch, they did that but the first approach would not let us set our own buttons. After that I think they did tweak the controller but removed the previous tweak, so you may add this to your "they did design arma for console"-list but I rather think they listened to our request and patched the controls you still need to learn and feel how the aircrafts behave ps: I only use the controller for helicopters the rest is keyboard+mouse controlled

here is a video of the xbox360 controller in use: youtube link the mapped keys are included, you can map the keys just the way you want them so banking, spinning and strafing would all be possible. I also do recommend the xbox360 controller, it feels better than flying with a flight stick

IMHO they do not even feel the same even though I use the x360 controller for ArmA, so I would not think they have ported them just over. For easier flying I DO SUGGEST the xbox 360 controllers, you just have to configure it the right way. I had to get used to the aircraft handling with the controller to work it out with keyboard and mouse so practice is probably the cheapest and easiest suggestion

It is not supposed to fix your fps, only the height of the visual grass Lowplant 1.1 by Kegetys is what you need for fps boost .ClickMe

Maybe it's a better solution to target the servers to collaborate in making mods/addons standards on their servers, so you don't have to switch mods every time you switch server

I'm not complaining about the WORKING HDR, but at this point I have a not good working HDR implementation in my game. I used to have a good working game on my notebook, but it died and I wanted to go future proof with next gen hardware. Now I have as I said earlier a HDR effect that looks like playing on the moon while chased by a magnifying glass burning a hole in the ground. ALL IS WHITE! I will reinstall arma but if this problem stays I will try and record it so you know how it looks when its bugged EDIT: After clean reinstal I now do not have this problem anymore

small bump sorry I have just got my new system and after getting everything working (next gen software seems rushed) I think I have my game looking like playing on the moon while being chased by an enormous magnifiying glass. Never had any trouble with HDR on my nvidia 6800go I now have an Ati 2900 XT, is this an ati problem?

Haha still remember that one while waiting for my German version to arive at the door. I have to be proud on my notebook, that it survived almost a year , to bad the screen died. Good news is that finally after one year I can play ArmA on a decent system Congrats BIS!

I hope this feature will be in anyway because it would give so much more situational awareness inside vehicles without going into 3D person mode, could have saved my life a couple of times allready!

max I may agree with you on some stuff, but not on most stuff. Just to get back to the entire console vs pc discussion, I would go on and dare to say that if OFP was published on a console ONLY we would never been here today discussing about ArmA2 (not this discussion as it would be silly then). Indeed an console gives way more ease to play any sort of game, although recently trying PES2008 and damn I can't handle such gameplay without an keyboard, it does also keep the future of that current game verry limited in expandabilities(sp?) I've played Raindbow Six 3 Ravenshield to dead and started it up every day for some hours of online play, but I got borred so easy after a while, this also happens allready while playing Halo3 atm, now I HAVE to wait for bungie to come with something new, which sadly only means 1 or 2 new levels and maybe a new gametype. After that it's probably history and I will have to move on to another game, which will repeat this. In most PC games I can atleast tweak some stuff and most I've played will allow new levels, weapons, characters and game types to be made by the community, which will give my gaming experience in those games a much longer lifeline. So I would say that even though consoles make it way more easier to have a game session for me, they would not last as long as pc gaming sessions will. Hence I would say that a PC is a way better gaming platform then a console woulf be if they stay as limited in tweaks and adjustments as a pc is.

It does look like working rear view mirrors to me, you see the bushes appear at the moment they should appear in the rear view mirror after passing them. But it's to small to really be able to see it

I noticed this when standing near another unit But the smoke works great now in SLX mod the tanks also use smoke and I have way longer urban tank vs tank battles now

As a start I would like to say that I loved OFP:E and sometimes still play in on my old console. atm I love ArmA even though my notebook does not. I would rather say ArmA2 going a bit of the same path as OFP did, only not with the 5year gap in between. I think it would be better for both versions, to first have the pc version ready and stable. Then if possible take what you've learned from that and finish the 360 version in the 6months following. ArmA allready showed that the dates in between releases did not put off that many players, made them only more anticipated to finally get it in their stores. and I allready posted this some months ago, Microsoft now has created some coding to allow the 360 and their OS to communicate online and allow multiplayer gaming between PC and Xbox360 I HOPE that ArmA2 will have this as well, just to have some WE ROCK YOU ON OUR PLATFORM gaming nights Edit: With that being possible, and with the 360 having it's own HD, how hard would it be to have some addon system for the console? I can allready get music and videos from my pc onto my 360, how much more work will it be to put some addons on there aswell. OFP:E allowed costum missions to be put on the console if I recall correct, I never did it as I did not have the needed 'gameshark?' but that was allready possible

Signed. You guys show what BIS engine and their community is capable of. I would so love to get an adrenaline rush deep in the forest while being circled by hungry dinosaurs! And the work done so far looks amazing! And I also am following and advertising this mod since day one

atm in SLX every soldier is able to bandage wounded units to stop the bleeding, and there are scenarios where even the current medic is not able to heal a wounded unit but only stabilize... but there is nothing implemented yet to be able to heal those units (as far as i know)

Nice, downloading now and checking right away great to hear you cahnge the sound levels inside vehicles, especially for armored vehicles. hope from now on I never have to change ingame sound levels during mp-games

The one directly linked to Solus' his pc is indeed down for a while now, but there is an other site with the more updated bugtracker, the link is in your inbox And I have not yet tested FFN but indeed sounds like having some of the same features.

Nice one Vidz, hope to see you putting more SLX features in next shots I think this is the best movie yet made, all works out perfectly and that without the real focus on a story

We can always try, here in Rotterdam they allready had a F1 race, Air Race and Snowboard event, so why not a city wide paintball event!

Some of the biggest features atm are imo: - dragging wounded - melee combat - taunts and shouts - radio system - supressive fire system (affects AI AND player) but there are so many tweaks that change the entire game! and if i recall correct it has ALL the OFP SLX features maybe Solus will give some more info himself in the future that lag is caused by both tracers as smoke but Solus is still looking into that one if I recall correct, SLX mod is SP optimized but still needs MP tweaks

Last time I asked Solus was finishing stuff up for an, dare I say it, open beta. BUT it looks like he currently is busy with adding way more cool features thanks to the released tools, so please be patient and keep an eye out for Solus

Great job trini scourge! Some moments looked like reallife footage, the units look really good and you got the correct lighting to give it a very realistic feeling! Nice story as well

I have to say that I'm totally in LOVE with the sky and the trees! Is this a teaser for something coming up soon? Or just to show what your working on? Keep em coming
