I was just about to post a new thread but did a search first and found this thread. What I initially intended to post: I've bought ArmA 3 at v.1.24 and I've noticed it right away while playing campaign. It takes many shots to kill AI. Two examples: 1. I've seen lots of this one. I'm in a house shooting at an AI 3 m from me. Chest hit. AI "shakes it off" (animation). Second shot kills AI. BTW, the animation is ~0.5s (sic!). 2. Campaign: Adapt, Gori, Breaking Even. Task: Eliminate the mortar. I shot at soldiers blocking my way, near the ruins, just before the road you need to cross. Two of them in dark uniforms. Distance: ~30-50 m. The first one took 3 hits to the chest, died of a headshot. Second time: 4 hits to the chest! Difficulty setting: Regular (unedited) But I see it doesn't matter as the issue is common. The quote below actually describes it well And this http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?p=2729919#post2729919 Which is a two-fold issue: 1. AI takes too much hits to kill. 2. AI can conduct a 100% effective fire while being shot at. It flinges for a brief moment but I wouldn't say it bothers. This sucks so much I actually stopped playing the campaign. Can anyone recommend a quick set of mods to address it at least remotely? I thinkthese AI mods (as suggested in the topic I've started earlier would work but I can't seem to find a mod that corrects rifle/vest hitpoints.

I've searched through all of my disk and found no traces of any ArmA 3 missions. What is their location? Can I edit them or at least take a look into the guts? This https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Missions is not helpful and most of the wiki is pre-ArmA 3. I used PBO extractor (explorer?) to poke around the A3 pbos but the file names are not indicative. Is there a file name vs mission reference?

Thank you for your input, SavageCDN! I'm going to try the mods in that order. I think I'll try them with the infantry showcase mission to see whether the issue of AI going long-range terminator is fixed or at least less severe.

What is an in-game mouse sensitivity for RAW 1:1 input? Related: http://www.overclock.net/t/173255/cs-s-mouse-optimization-guide http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?135323-Mouse-Acceleration-in-ArmA-3

The option supposed to show who killled you but the default one is lousy at it. Are there any mods for it? Or how to edit parameters of this feature?

Exactly!

To think that I wished for transparent grass near player... They probably won't fix even the basic bugs. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?109264-Make-grass-near-player-transparent-when-prone

I was eager to jump into any ArmA 2 mission that does not require addons. I started off here http://www.armaholic.com/list.php?c=arma2_files_scenarios_spmissions&s=count&w=desc but the first one I tried gave me an error no entry 'bin\config.bin/cfgworlds.0' The mission is Behind Enemy Lines by laggy http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=6271 Can we start sharing ArmA 2 Free compatible missions to avoid blind-hunting for a working mission to complement that one shipped with the game already? Edit: This mission works and it's PERFECT to quickly jump into action in ArmA 2 Free! http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=9581 . Don't forget to say 'thank you!' to the author :) http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=95394

Thanks for the update!

My case is even worse. First of all I have the sprocket version - A2 + OA separate, which was running fine for weeks. Then I didn't run it for a while and today, bam!

I've decided to spend more time with your awesome mission after some frustrating SP mission where I couldn't hit a freakin' thing. Few questions: 1. Is there a way to enable a "permanent spotter view" i.e. a small camera view zoomed on where I aim. It's that it's easy to practice scoped weapons shooting but when it comes to non-scoped... especially the primitives with gun sights that totally obstruct the view below aiming point like in AK-47 series. I don't see where I, well, miss... 2. Is there a way to make the soldier NOT disappear like a ghost but have him like he would normally behave in a mission? 3. Can I make the soldier react to wounds like he would in a normal mission? By default he's like terminator.

It doesn't need to be focused on PvP obviously. Is there any rough schedule, at least re the public testing phase?

Contact me first via PM! _______________________________ I've spent hours already trying to find a server I could take that game (CO) for a spin but I had to give up and therefore I ask the community for help. If anyone could point me into the right direction. A server or a group (for scheduled event!) that would more or less feature what I look for in ArmA multiplayer Europe based server ACE mod compatible PvP gameplay or at least non-continuous mission * /or/ sp missions / campaign COOP team work oriented - no praying for points while loosing teammates! * no quake please ; I'd like it to be like: teams split, solid collective mission briefing, mission execution, end, mission debriefing (as, for example, in the Eye for an eye ArmA 2 mission) I tried using the built-in MP browser but many geniuses put "NO ACE" in game names so the only way to find an ACE compatible servers using the filter is by "1.11" or "ACRE". Using that method I found ~3 servers, none with PvP. The last resort would be to contact group by group via their websites http://updater.dev-heaven.net/mods/nested/a546d346-a754-11de-b50f-0021855d3b6d?_method=get&associations=queryservers

Ah, I forgot / been busy. Same with the issue with back blast...

Exactly! :) Signing up now and putting in my "available during evenings/nights, CET". Erm... so where's the link?

It's weird that I post in this topic, have a "looking for one night stand" in my signature and no one have tried to contact me. No one is available during CET evenings, not one day in a week?

Thanks!

Link? That shows 'lots' of what you talk about that is :)

One could not expect a better answer - where's reputation system on bistudio forums? ;)

Is Zeus AI compatible with ACE? Does it make sense to combine the two?

Made my day :)

You don't say! :) Did anyone say otherwise?

That's why there's the "find your ArmA mate" site being worked on. It wouldn't take you more time to play your SP missions with your human-buddy!

Erm, yeah, if it suits the description :)
