Touch Pilot Official Site Control a flight sim from your tablet Touch Pilot One allows virtual pilots to control a flight simulator on a PC, from a tablet. On-screen controls allow you to adjust throttle, gear, flaps, and more with just a touch. It works with any flight simulator running on a Windows PC. Available now for iPad and Android tablets.

I also found them to be quite accurate. Frustratingly so - the machine gun toting farmers are especially deadly. Not only that but they are also really good at spotting and far better than your own guys who are supposed to be recon. At the moment I'm trying to approach an area through woods and even with all of them on stealth and prone the enemy AI mostly gets the drop on them and the medic is almost always the first to go, poor guy. It all adds up to an annoying amount of restarts if you want to complete the mission without losing a squad member.

Just to make sure, did you start both engines?

It doesn't work if you load up with a mod. You need to start vanilla and then activate the mod(s) you want through the expansions menu in game.

I was firing up Arma 2 with a launcher and a mod folder of addons I use pretty much all the time which caused the above issue. I started it up without the mod folder and it worked fine. I then enabled my mod folder through the expansions menu and everything still appears to be in order (new terrain in main menu and logo in main menu).

I've installed it, got no errors, but when I run CO the logo of the DLC isn't on the main menu like with BAF and PMC and none of the content is present either.

For those that have played it, what's this? procedural template gameplay modes

I hope my post didn't come across as a bugging you for an update. Certainly didn't mean it like that! Just saying it was nice to see LoBo still producing quality stuff since OFP times.

The addon request thread is quite popular and it got me thinking about scripts and missions. While addons are very popular and most are on peoples hard drives and ofp.info it is not the same for scripts and missions. Over the years OFP has seen the creation of a lot of missions and scripts but with the OFPEC crash and the switch to ArmA a lot of these have disappeared and only remain on a persons hard drive. I was thinking that I would create a site that could be accesses by me and some others trustworthy members from what's left of the OFP community. We could access it and upload what missions and scripts we have and so ensuring that they are hosted and can be accessed by the community. Small and/or hard to get addons could also be hosted. I would use Google Sites because it is free and extremely easy to use. http://www.google.com/sites/help/intl/en/overview.html What do you guys think? Worth it for the increasingly hard to find missions and scripts or a waste of time?

How does DVD work with setviewdistance set by a mission editor?

I was actually happy to hear it was going to be ACE compatible. So few addons are and it was great that someone was going to utilise all those great features. I can't be the only one? Anyway, glad to hear about the upcoming release Miles Teg and good to see Lost Brothers is still here. How long has that been now? I still have your addon pack for OFP installed. Good times!

E3 will soon be upon us and BIS will have a booth. They also had one at last years E3 and the community, desperate for news on the BIS bunker, had a lightbulb moment and "commandeered" Gamespot's live feed guy who was repeatedly asked to visit the BIS booth by us. He did and although BIS wasn't prepared, we got a good 50 minutes presentation on CC, TOH and Arma 3 from the BIS guys. Hopefully we can do it again for this years E3 if Gamespot will still have their live feed guy and BIS will be willing to show off their games.

Since someone mentioned this, when I was going through one of my threads about a dispersion script a week or so ago I noticed I was having a conversation with myself. The other persons posts had disappeared completely. Would that be an error with the forum? Or something else? This is the thread.

Update, check the post above.

Doesn't setting allowFleeing to 1 make them the most likely to flee? With 0 being the least likely to flee.

I don't understand what point you're making. You prefer Serellan stating its intentions are much clearer but I fail to see how. If you look at the features list for Takedown, it's very vague, with the game trying to please different communities (SWAT 4, Tom Clancy Rainbow Six, SOCOM etc.) and I don't see any information on what engine will be used. Nor did they have anything to show to give people an idea of what they were aiming for. No, that's wrong, they did - a few real life pictures stolen from places on the internet and photoshopped which the project lead initially denied! Extremely poor way to start off a business IMHO. Whereas with GB, the features are much more clear and nailed down and they have things to show off which gives people are far better idea of where the game is headed. Note, I am not a member of the GB forums and I only heard of it through these forums. I didn't back Serellan because of its lack of clarity and having nothing to show. I haven't backed GB either but I am considering to do so because their KS succeeds in the critical areas where Serellan's failed.

There's also this addon here. If you don't want to use SLX suppression for the moment.

Because future! Note: may contain humour

Sorry if this has been mentioned, but would allowFleeing be a workable addition to the script? In games like Close Combat and Combat Mission where suppressive fire is important in manoeuvring your forces effectively, units could break under sustained and heavy fire (depending on type of unit, skill and a huge amount of other variables) and either flee from the map or back to another position. I have hardly any experience with scripting beyond basic stuff so this is just a suggestion. I don't want to be adding another mountain to your workload! Anyway, great work so far and an excellent addition to the game.

Some nice info in the 'Sound Czech' article but it leaves me Hungary for more.

The mainstream media do not brainwash but, at best, try to influence their audience. Loads of extensive research has been done and published in books, studies or articles which are sourced pieces of research done by researchers who examine, analyse and write. Things like these are done at research groups, universities, 'think tanks' and so on and their works are usually easy to get a hold of on the internet. One such place is the GMG and quite a few of their works are free to download. You'll find that no study agrees on how effective the media are at influencing people with some saying they are, or aren't or can be in circumstances or whatever conclusion it is they reach based on their own research and own ideas on how media, technology, government, editors, politicians, different audience groups, journalists etc. come together in society.

US combat operations ended in Iraq in 2010 and the last combat unit left in December 2011, less than 200 military personnel are present now working out of the embassy. The big US bases are gone so supplies and engineers would need to be moved back in to re-build for some time to allow a build-up of forces before anything could happen. The dates are not irrelevant and nor did I say the above. The global and economic systems of the 1920s and 1930s were radically different from what we have now so the situations are not directly comparable. I never said intervention could not happen, just that it was far less likely given the different location and situation of Syria as well as the different priorities the US and European nations have.

Unable to watch the game so I'm stuck with the BBC website. Ouch indeed.

Neither of which are part of NATO. Not "bullshit", German rearmament began in 1933 with Britain, France and the USA following suit in the mid-1930s and increased as the decade progressed. This is irrelevant to this thread, an armed intervention in Syria will not be like WW2. When I say "unilateral" I mean through NATO and it will take more than just a NATO command. A lot of emphasis was placed on British and French aircraft in enforcing the no fly zone over Libya but with the economic crisis worse than it was a year ago, especially with the Euro zone, it's unlikely the French or British will back it. Fixing the ever growing economic crisis takes priority. The Syrian situation is also more complex than that of Libya as well as being further away from Europe.

Proof of it happening in the past is not proof of it happening now. I'm not saying there's no intelligence service involvement, when something big happens in the world you want more intelligence on it and then may decide to aid clandestinely or not. Things are usually complex than "CIA", like the case with South Vietnam, where RVNAF generals were already planning a coup and the US government let it happen. That's just an example, I don't want to get dragged into a debate about Diem and the coup generals. Which bases? Germany? UK forces are in the process of leaving and US forces are reducing their presence. Turkey may veto use of its bases. More fighting means more refugees coming into the country. WW2 was not a little war! It was "total war", mobilisation of industry, a massive military build-up and intense fighting all over the world for years. Plus, the economic crash was already subsiding by the time it started. Support is hard to quantify. Iraq became deeply unpopular, OEF is different as it was the result of attacks on American soil while Iraq was not and was thus more controversial. Support for Libya was never clear here and probably not in the US either. The US still retains a significant capability even with reductions to pre-OEF levels but UK and France don't. UK troop numbers will fall below 100,000. In France the elections were decided by the economy and their military is going to leave Afghanistan earlier than planned IIRC. I don't think Obama wants to intervene unilaterally, if he wants to at all. Plus, the situation in Syria is more complex than it was in Libya.
