Hmm bizarre, an email just dropped into my inbox from Amazon a few minutes ago stating the price to be £17.79 (was it 24€ you were quoted then?) , but wait a minute? The release date is .......... April 1st ;)

[CAMP] Joint Operations [BAF]
Ducatisto replied to Specialist's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
One thing is critical with this is you must ensure you have the very latest version of CBA, like many others it failed at the start because although not obvious I was using an outdated version of CBA. Current version is 0.6.0 http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=6231&highlight=CBA Hope that helps. On a side note, after that issue I have had hours playing this campaign and have been totally immersed in it, well done. -
Crash to Desktop, happens anytime...
Ducatisto replied to bigred78's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
I am running Win 7 Home Premium 64bit with an ATI 4870 so, would your Nvidia card be an issue? Have you a generous friend that would loan you an ATI card for a test? -
Go with Dwardens solution and use the commandline mod activation as well as ensuring you have the latest CBA files as that was a problem I was having.

CO (with mods) CTD when attempting to load a save
Ducatisto posted a topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
This has only happened from the CO shortcut and using the @CBA modfolder in the target. Playing a game and actually creating a save is not a problem but trying to load that save the game immediately CTD's reporting that it cannot load the save. Purely vanilla CO behaves ok but that stops me playing missions/campaigns that rely on other addons and CBA. Is there a resolution to this? -
CO (with mods) CTD when attempting to load a save
Ducatisto replied to Ducatisto's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - TROUBLESHOOTING
Just thought it would be polite to let you know this has been resolved. After a total un-installation and the painstakingly slow process of installing Arma II and Operation Arrowhead and still finding the crash on trying to load a save I eventually pinned it down to the CBA addon. Updating to the very latest (CBA_v0-6-0) solved it and I no longer suffer from crashes. I hope this helps. -
First time played through I elected to do the Scuds then the POW's, the AI had dealt with Aziz so straight through to the press conference (mission 9). Had a second go and elected to rescue the POW's then the Scuds before being told that Aziz is holed up in his villa. Hot footed in the Bradley over to the villa, pop a few bad guys and got to the front of the villa where I was informed Aziz had escaped and then on to the mission (8) I missed when Aziz was killed in mission 7. I will not post any more as others may want to play the 'missing' mission if they managed to kill Aziz in mission 7 ;)

After installation of OA I have tried to carry on from ANY save and the game immediately CTD's. No matter what I do (delete all saves/config etc) I start the campaign again, save, try to load and again CTD. Anyone else suffer from this and is there a solution?

VILAS addons release thread
Ducatisto replied to vilas's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Now playing around with various weapons/vehicles but would appreciate if anybody can point me in the direction of a total list of all vehicle/weapon classnames, many thanks. By the way great work Vilas -
The way the helo is at the moment is not all that bad, I blame the dumb ass pilot not the script writer :) Reverting back to how it was in Arma would not be all that bad if it made it work regularly, I would say that is your shout anyway! Altogether this is so addictive, just got to go back and play it again....... :D

After thoroughly enjoying Dynamic War on Arma I had to get all this and was not disappointed. My only beef is the blowing up of fuel depots, what is the point as to where this mission is a success? I have blown a dump to pieces and still there never comes a point where it says the mission is complete. Is it a condition where all enemies have to be killed as well? There are a few other bugs all of which have been noted before, the chopper is a royal pain sometimes as when it takes off from base it stops in auto hover and the only way out is to order a total disembark whereupon the chopper goes back down only to take off again after all have got off!! I am sure in further versions these will be ironed out. Great fun none the less.

Due to work commitments only just finished it. I am what I call a casual gamer so prefer to follow rather than take command and this mission suited my style of play. I have to say I found version 0.89 quite easy, joined the squad went to the village, lobbed a few grenades, took an RPG and saw off all the armour, job done. Maybe I was lucky but I found it a little too short but very well made none the less. Starting the mission doing the driving I was told to turn right at the next crossroads so off I went looking for 'crossroads' and then realised it should have been just take the next right, maybe correct that W0lle? Overall well done.

Wolle, I am not a 'loud' voice on these forums choosing to read than write but if this mission is anything to go by in comparison to your previous releases I am sure it will be top class. It is ready to play and I will report back....... First point. It comes up in the mission list as 'Name' On playing the first few minutes there is what seems to be a dialogue in another language after being told to disembark the truck. On exiting the mission at that point the mission is correctly titled 'USMC Ambush', strange that? Will resume tomorrow. Duca

Manhatten (possible spoilers)
Ducatisto replied to thierry007's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - OFFICIAL MISSIONS
You need to relax! This mission is quite random (making it all the more enjoyable bugs aside). Just use the guide as a base, if you fail the first time try and try again. If you want simplicity try COD or MOH! Duca -
UKF Release: Jackal MWMIK
Ducatisto replied to da12thMonkey's topic in ARMA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Please post that article for us. I cannot say I am 'in the know' but to me it has always been a weapons platform/recce vehicle, it is not really supposed to be taking fire. And that title "Taliban successfully hunt the Jackal" is typically jurno. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/afghanistan/4997657/Two-British-soldiers-killed-in-Afghanistan-blast.html It was yesterday the news was posted regarding the 2 soldiers killed whilst in a Jackal, very sad news indeed, condolences to their families. But seeing the Jackal it really looks out of sorts whilst on the road. -

I mirror sle, had a 4 month 'vacation' away from Arma but still got back to Dynamic War. Best thing about it is being able to 'do your own thing', I have edited it for my own personal enjoyment like replacing the A10 'spy' with a Predator which adds to the realism a little more. Highly recommended to those that have never played Dynamic War.

Civilian Airfield (Geo Specific)
Ducatisto replied to OChristie's topic in ARMA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
Loaded it up and it is complaining of a missing texture, apologies but I did not write the file name down. Otherwise it has promise and I am sure once firmly polished will be a base for many a mission. Duca -
Well I figured it was better then my voice LOL  I can change it to a guys but remember theres women in the army now  I used att natural voice for the voice overs maybe one day if I can find a suitable replacement for it I will apply it. thanks all I welcome all replies to make this a better artillery mod                        Viper I certainly agree on the women being in the forces but my criticism was the "strength" of the speech and not being male/female. My cousin is in the forces and having heard her in action I would not want to cross her on a bad day!! Like I said, a good addition which I am sure will make its way into many new missions. Duca
-
Just did a quick scenario with this and although it works well enough I have to criticise one part of it and that is the voice overs. I was expecting a "typical" gunnery sarge voice but what you have is, well a rather timid voice, almost apologetic. My advice would be to get someone with a suitable voice to do those voice overs and it would be a better package for it, my 2 cents. Duca
-
Well Rejn, this is probably the first time I have laughed out loud whilst playing Arma. This really got that "Dirty Dozen" feeling of misfits and their nutty squad leader. I have not played far yet as I am enjoying the dialogue far too much I am getting shot to pieces! Just can't wait for more. Duca

I'm the only one? Use a different browser for now. I had the same problem using Firefox for a little while, I switched to IE to get problematic files but for one reason or other the issue resolved itself. I now use Chrome and as yet not had any issues with it. Duca
