  1. I would like to make the community aware of a telling aspect of the USM's behavior outside of these forums. I will be quoting directly from a post Spyder made on another forum, talking about how he encourages people to pirate ArmA. These will be selective quotes with slight edits so that I do not give information about pirating ArmA, since obviously I do not support it.
    Quote[/b] ]Hey everybody. As you can see USM is doing our best to allow everyone to play Armed Assault even though BIS is being a douche bag and a half. If you didn't see here is what we are doing just so you are aware and can participate.
    Quote[/b] ]Okay this will be the thread that me and Hspd will post in to announce activitives and update you on game updates and server updates. If you need help read the readme I will post below.
    Quote[/b] ]First of all, download and install a working version of the game. Download the (edited: name of a pirate version of the game) with 92 rar files or whatever. Then extract the 1st RAR and using (edited: instructions on how to get the illegal version working)
    Quote[/b] ]you will need to take another step, and that is to download this file (edited: download link to protection driver removal software) download that file for starforce removal, it will require you to reboot your computer
    Quote[/b] ]Once the protection drivers are installed you will need the 1.01 patch, you can get a knowing working version from this URL (edited: scene release of a hacked version of the 1.01 patch) download it to your desktop for easy access.
    Quote[/b] ]I hope this helps everyone get back at BIS for a shiity release of this awsome game. (edited: link to usm site) is our website if you are interested in joining.

    Thanks,

    USM Staff

    So.. what's the justification for this one, Spyder & Co?

    This is disgusting behaviour from USM and I am deeply appalled. BIS is a small, yet hardworking company, and it cannot be expected to make a perfect game on the first swing. Everyone must understand that future patches will make this game into something that we will all love and there is no need to "get back at bis."


  2. Hmm, they should only need to know that those 3 ports are required to be open...

    I made 3 different settings in port triggering.

    ArmA

    ArmA server

    ArmA voip

    and typed the numbers you listed in each text box and tried it (Starcraft had the same deal with the same number and it works for that game), but it still did not work. I still cannt join multiplayer games but I can HOST multiplayer games.


  3. What ports does ArmA use for multiplayer? I was talking to my router company, to fix my multiplayer bug, and they said that I should try port triggering. To do that I need to fill out the following:

    Trigger /Port Range-Incoming /Port Range (There are 4 slots to fill)

    Thanks notworthy.gif


  4. Installed zone alarm and still having that connection problem. banghead.gif

    I'm not sure if this would get any mileage, but have you tried the "remote" function and used an IP? Granted it probably just acts as a filter, but it's something that I haven't been able to try yet.

    I have tried that before and it did not work. sad_o.gif


  5. I would suggest

    In the onActivation-Line of a trigger, which is activated by Civilians only and covers the certain area:

    <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">{ _nilPoint = _x addEventHandler[ "killed",{ _this exec "checkForHarm.sqf" ]; }forEach thislist;

    checkForharm.sqf

    <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">if( ( count weapons _this select 0 )> 0 )then

    {

    _this select 1 setDammage =( getDammage _this select 1 )+ 0.1;

    };

    (Didn't try)

    Thanks


  6. I am making a mission where RACS forces go into a village that has half armed civilians and unarmed civilians. I want to deter the RACS from shooting all civilians and making it easy on them, so I would like to put an ingame punishment; If they shoot and kill a friendly civilian then they will do damage to themselves and if they do it enoujgh they will die.

    Does anyone know how to do this? I have looked around but found nothing.


  7. Here are my stats:

    Asus P4P 800 Deluxe

    2.8c GHZ (Intel)

    Saphire X1650 Pro (AGP)

    PC3200 2 X 512mb

    Audigy 2zs

    Now I have to run the game on LOW on EVERYTHING.

    The only things that is on normal is textures.

    Then I have Antristroptic and shadows turned off.

    I run it at 1280x1024x32.

    Using Teamspeak overlay I get about almost 30 FPS in the country but in citys it will drop down to 15. BUT in a firefight my frames will drop especially in a city to the point where it is a slideshow. In a firefight in a city my FPS will get down to 9-12 and it is simply unplayable.

    Is this a game issue or is it just my computer?


  8. @Enigma

    I've tried just about everything I could think of to get that glitch fixed. I think all you (we) can do is hold tight until official word comes through on it.

    @Silverguy82

    What are your system specs? Have you already tried the basics (updated DirectX, latest drivers, etc.)?

    Thanks. On another note, port fowarding doesn't work either. crazy_o.gif


  9. I thought this was a problem that was just in the demo but I downloaded the full game and it still haunts me...

    Here are my stats:

    Asus P4P 800 Deluxe

    2.8c GHZ (Intel)

    Saphire X1650 Pro (AGP)

    PC3200 2 X 512mb

    Audigy 2zs

    I can host a game for Armed Assault fine, but when I try to join a game it acts really weird. I have to hit OKAY to see everyone on the server, then I have to be dragged into a slot. When the host hits continue I get stuck on the recieving mission file screen. But I can host fine...

    Here is what my game looks like when I join a server.

    Note-I can host and join games fine in all other games, it's just Armed Assault.

    Here are my router settings:

    The only protection I have is AVG and no firewall (windows firewall is turned off).


  10. I am really considering to buying Armed Assault from a German website, but I am just wondering, are there any long term problems from getting it?

    I know the only problem I see about it is the fact that I need to revert back to German before I repatcht it, but other then that, I should be good? Mods should work the same, everything should work as they are?

    Furthermore, how good is the translator? What does it translate? Is the audio from the AI in English? And just the text that goes with it in German?

    Thanks
