Undeceived

What?? :eek: Winter island?? Which one is this?

Shift+ -(Numpad) and then flush did the trick for me. :) Thanks for this suggestion - the crash happened yesterday again... :(

Welcome, MagR! 1) Install Arma 2 2) Install Patch 1.08 and you're completely updated and done for Arma 2. If you order Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead later (which I would recommend), then do the following: 3) Install A2: OA 4) Install Patch 1.57 So far there are two DLCs for Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead: British Armed Forces (BAF) and Private Military Company (PMC). BAF is at 1.02 at the moment and PMC at 1.01. If you have the DLCs: The latest versions are also included in the OA patch 1.57. One last thing: You say you ordered Arma II. If by this you should mean Arma 2: Combined Operations, then you made the right choice ;) and ordered Arma 2 and Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead together in one game. In this case you only need to install Patch 1.57. The latest patch for Arma 2 is also included in this one.

According to the patch notes the PMC ammo box is now available with OA 1.57, resp. PMC 1.01.

Thank you VERY much, Bohemia! Best game support! Keep up the good work!

No, not an ACE2 mission. Only some other addons.

Oh! :) The footstep sounds were fixed. Cool! :) Thanks a lot, guys!

This seems to be the same issue than discribed here. Happens to me too (also have the GTX 260). Really hope that BIS or Nvidia can fix this as it doesn't happen with no other application / game. What helped me some times so far though, was updating the graphic drivers. There was one driver (approx. 1 month back) which causes the crash very very often. Then the actual one was released (260.99) and it became much better. EDIT: One idea that might narrow the bug: Can you guys confirm that the crash happens more often when running the game in window mode? Perhaps this is just bull$hit, but who knows... I didn't play too much in the last days but the last time the crash happened was when I ran the game in window mode (preview in the editor). Then yesterday I played approx. 1,5 hours in full screen mode and it didn't crash at all.

I also had begun a mission with the pbo version and tried to switch to script DAC - didn't work for me neither. :) So I let it be. :) Next mission then.

Something prevented me to like the Arma 1 soundtrack... But all following releases were one better than the other, so Ondrej did a fantastic job so far! Looking forward to next releases! :) Great music! The soundtrack of OFP also is still one of the best in my opinion. But this might just be related with the feelings that rise when I hear the tracks - the quality is rather low compared with the other games. But it's a fact for me that everything that goes in OFP's direction is good! :) And its music has a special touch which I never heard before (talking about the orchestral tracks - Seventh is awesome anyway (despite being low quality)).

Same here... :( I have a Nvidia GTX 260 and Windows 7 32bit. When I updated the graphic drivers, I could play OA without crashing, but yesterday it suddenly happened again (after 5 minutes playing). Btw. I played Batman: Arkham Asylum the whole night long in the last days and didn't have ONE issue... @ metalcraze: Thanks for the tip, I'll try this!

Any idea how to fulfill the objective "Shift away the civilians"? I found 4 civilian groups and shot some rounds near them and they ran away leaving the compound, but the objective doesn't change and nothing happens. Restarted several times - always the same. Am I not seeing something? Or is this a showstopper? Any hint? And what's the alternative to make them go away if not shooting near them? Edit: Ok, now it worked (with the alternative :) ). The alternative is: Throw smoke grenades near the civi groups and they will go away. After doing this the mission also resumed.

DAC_Marker is already = 0 and I searched the whole documentation and files about this problem (before posting here), but I didn't find anything. The DAC_Config_Markers.sqf seems not to have an option to disable the zone center markers on the player's map...

Thanks for your answer. But what does UPSMON mean?

and do not put a ; behind the latest mod. And also, if you bought and installed PMC (the DLC from BIS) you don't need to have it in your mod line because it launches automatically with OA.

-nosplash not -nospash

Hey I44 team, it would be interesting to know what you as team are doing atm - are you only fixing and shaping up the DDay release? Are you working at Wacht am Rhein mod simultaneously? Are you just playing? Or maybe just taking a break from editing? Would be cool to read from you and also how the team is doing and feeling, etc. So if you've got the time, write a small inside-report, as I believe that many are interested in it. Looking forward to it!

What does IA mean?

Cool thing, we need more of this! :)

I think you're exaggerating a bit here! Of course they sound like real people, dude. The recording quality is good and also the performance of the actors!

Well, aparenty this part of the mission is a bit buggy, but I really think that the smoke grenades are the alternative, they talk about... I also searched everything in and around the complex. But maybe we oversaw something? :)

wrong post, delete please.

I had satchels in my back pack. Are you sure you opened the back pack in your inventory?

Gaia said exactly what I thought, only that I rather went to play instead of having to write it. :D

FUNKSTAR, did you empty the ammo in your (and Asano's) backpack already? For a T72 - I think 6 shoots in the engine... Not sure anymore.
