shark-attack

what ... Â like Tony Blair did ...

in one word .... YES gonna do something .. do it right first time ... agreed a great game like ARMA will take months to perfect  but practice makes perfect .. allow more time for beta testing release when ready  ... you start giving yourself deadlines .. you start having to meet them ... corners will be cut .. every time .. paitence is a virtue

i agree with the grass .. obviously developers have been smoking too much of it .. its spring loaded .. come on .. Â you roll in the grass ... it stays flat for a least half a day (depending on season).. it just dosnt bounce back into life... not good ... Â

game runs fine since patching ... only difference i noticed is time of mission.. seems to be five mins out since patch... had to alter missions accordingly .... graphics settings remain the same .. couple of mins out from v1.02 map easy fixed

updated  for patch 1.05 ..  (minor change .. was too dark after patching to 105.. FIXED) check first post for download link ..

i think it applies if language patch is installed and no back up was made of replaced files then a reinstall is required ..

sorry double post ...

how many re installs are permitted before needing more codes ??

great.. nice to be able to hep .. instead of needing it ..

in editor click show ids find the id number of wall you want to destroy ..eg 12345 in init sqs or in trigger on activation put ... (position player nearestObject 12345 setdammage 1) note not all objects are desroyable

try giving the player a new waypoint once condition has been set ... quote at ofpec A new waypoint is made after executing the following code: wp = group player addWaypoint [position mike,1]; Where the player is named "player" and another soldier (not grouped with the player) is named "mike". If I start the mission, I see the new waypoint being created, which probably means that the AI doesn't WALK towards their waypoint. Note: it doesn't matter if I use 1 or 0 as the waypoint index. But the wiki states that index 0 is always a waypoint created at the soldier's starting position. Note1: as you have already created a waypoint, I tested if the waypoint gets created when you use 0,1,2,3 etc and in what order waypoints will be created. The weird thing is, you can use 0 or 5, the result is that the waypoint you create is the final waypoint. But, they are always there, it's just that units don't go to them. Note2: Units DO move to a newly created waypoint if there are editor waypoints they have to reach first, but they must not have reached them. If they stop, they stay still. Don't know how to get them to make their way towards a "hand-made" waypoint. Note3: Still haven't found a command that let's the AI walk to their next WP.

matt  you swine  ..  lol .. have been working on a set of missions trying to make a  two player camp ... you ve set new standards...  great job by the way  .. excellent  stuff .. simple minds think a like !! guess ill have to go for a 4 man job !

a two man canoe for small scale insertions .. or from where raids on larger ships can be launched .. a la cockleshell heros

lo mate ... eg  chopper is called bird  youre group is called zulu create a switch trigger sync it with the load waypoint of chopper ... sync the load and get in waypoints with eachother also in its condition field put ({_x in bird} count units zulu == {alive _x} count units zulu) now hopefully the chopper ( bird) will wait until all alive units from youre group (zulu) are onboard before proceeding to its next waypoint if not with trigger try putting the code in the helos waypoint condition ive only tried with trigger

hold cursor over unit hit delete button ...
