  1. I'm trying to spawn a number of traps from The Unsung mod in a certain radius from an empty marker or object. I've been trying to figure this out for myself and using a tutorial from BIS I have got this so far but it doesn't work and I am not sure why.

    Ultimately what I am aiming for is just to fill an area with these traps so players are kept on the edge.

    if (isServer) then
    
    //Array of traps
    _trapArray =
    [
    "uns_Tripwire1b",
    "uns_Tripwire2b",
    "uns_m16apmine",
    "uns_Punji1",
    "uns_Punji2",
    "uns_punji3",
    
    ]
    
    // select random trap
    _trap = _trapArray call BIS_fnc_selectRandom;
    
    // spawn the trap
    _trapSet = _trap createVehicle position trp;

    trp is an invisible heli pad. I'm calling the script with _nil = [] execVM "trapSpawn.sqf";

    It's probably something obvious but I just can't seem to my head around this stuff - help appreciated!


  2. This is a small mission for The Unsung Vietnam War mod, one of the best mods I've played in all my years of BIS gaming, much thanks to all those involved in its creation.

    DOWNLOAD

    I made this mission with MP in mind for myself and some friends. It is doable in SP and should work from the SP mission section too.

    This is my first MP mission that I have released. Editing for MP is new territory for me so I have no idea how well this will play on a dedicated server. If any of you do try it on a dedi please let me know if it doesn't work so I can try and fix it. The mission has not been extensively tested so there may be bugs and the mission may either be too easy or too hard (but remember that there is some randomness in enemy numbers and positions).

  3. Great to see another release h34dup, I've enjoyed your previous mission!

    About MP, some scripts may need to be tweaked or re-worked for MP usage on a dedicated server as some stuff might only be broadcast locally. There may be other issues but I am out of my depth when it comes to this MP stuff. Adding in respawn is the easy bit! :)


  4. In terms of gaming websites I'm 100% sure Gamespot and Gametrailers will be there. I think we managed to get one of the live feeds from Gamespot to go the BI booth twice last time ;)

    But I'm sure there are more then that.

    And somebody ran a drinking game during the live stream too.

    Steering wheel mentioned, drink!

    We need another one.

    If anybody has this would they consider uploading it?

    It would be much appreciated!


  6. For those of you having mission problems - it's likely due to some updates in Arma, or changes to Lingor which have changed the map so that my missions no longer fit on it.

    I won't be going back to fix those becoz time has moved on, but........

    Do you remember what version of Lingor? Ice or somebody that still has it could upload it so your campaign can still be enjoyed.

    I always wanted to play this campaign but never got around to until now.


  7. Arma 3 will not replace Arma 2 for me.

    1. The setting of Arma 3 doesn't interest me in the slightest
    2. Arma 3 isn't the leap in improvement I was hoping for
    3. Arma 2 has much more custom content available that I like
    4. Arma 2 has matured nicely in terms of patches and mods


  8. I'm using this:

    Smoke="Smokeshell" createvehicle [(getPos tr1 select 0),(getPos tr1 select 1),0];

    To spawn smoke shells to simulate artillery firing smoke rounds to blind enemy AI to an attack. Of course, the default smoke doesn't block AI view but JAM smoke grenades do. I've tried using the JAM classnames for smokes but they don't work and I'm not sure why.

    As an alternative, would it be possible to use the default BIS smoke grenades but activate the JAM EH so it adds the view block?
