Is there an Altis version of this mission in the works? Stratis is great, but it's pretty limiting.

I would definitely be interested in that and I'd sign up to beta test it to make it more stable. I (now used to I guess) play this mission regularly with my buddies.

Could you please PM me with info on how to get 1.75? Thanks. ---------- Post added at 10:52 ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 ---------- [No edit on mobile] Remember guys, if this community mission does in fact violate the BIS agreement and require payment for any version of the mod and/or add-on you can just torrent it until BIS clears up the situation. I'm not saying this author is violating anything, but if he is there are ways to work with it. Also keep in mind nothing bad has happened yet as far as I'm aware.

So just to clarify, will we be getting the new 1.8 version in late December on the steam workshop?

Any indication what the "other tweaks" are? Thanks for the update!

Is there some info out there about what helis can transport certain cargo?

So if I haven't shelled out the $16 for the DLC with two helicopters I can't really play this mission right? Does it require the Chinook for vehicle recovery etc?

I may be mistaken, but I thought by preordering the game before the alpha came out (got it for like $25 or something hard to recall) I was supposed to get all future DLC for free. I know expansion packs weren't part of the deal, but I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to have all DLC unlocked. Could be wrong though. My friend bought the game the same day I did and he has all DLC for free. Just wondering what's up with that.

Ah alright thanks for the info guys much appreciated.

Every time I get dropped off by air the helicopter lifts off before all my men are out so half of my team falls to their deaths. Where can I find the sound mod that is mentioned on mission start? What is it for anyway?

Try Whole Lotta Altis. IMO it's the best SP mission for A3.

Any good PVP and/or coop insurgency missions for A3? I've done some digging on Armaholic but can't find a good mission. Looking for the same style as the popular A2 mission where you kill/play as insurgents, gather Intel, then find and destroy objectives. My friends and I had so much fun playing in a team against another insurgent friend who was countering our efforts.

Also curious. What can you actually lift with this baby? It'd be nice to see some kind of list of objects. As far as I recall the recently modernized Chinooks can even sling load dry Abrams MBTs with their turrets detached.

So does changing it to "more left/right" fix it or is that no longer an option?

I love flying with the mouse (or my X-52 Pro), walking with the mouse, shooting with the mouse, and driving with the mouse. Unfortunately ArmA 3 has super stiff land vehicle mouse controls making it almost impossible to steer without frantically throwing your mouse across the desk as you try avoiding that pesky obstacle. Is there any way at all to adjust the vehicle mouse sensitivity independent from the on-foot controls? ArmA 2 OA had it just right, and even Armed Assault had better mouse steering than A3.

Or just up your render resolution in game. That makes the biggest difference in both quality and performance. AA can't beat rendering at a higher res to begin with. Found your problem. I've never had to engage at ranges even close to that. I don't think I could with anything currently in the game. Artillery computer aside of course.

Is V2 worth downloading then? How soon is 3 coming out do you think?

The download link is giving me a 404 error. Looking forward to version 3!

Is there any way to access the virtual arsenal after the mission starts? I know you can select it at mission start and it appears seemingly randomly after you insert, but is it possible to use it at a later date? Works fine for me. Maybe your frame rate was too low to initialize the script at mission start.

I want to tweak my graphics options to fine tune performance and I'm not able to access the configuration menu while in a mission. Confirmed bug or just being weird?

Thanks for the tips guys much appreciated. I also thought it was an FPS issue so I looked directly down at the dirt ensuring I was getting max frame rate. The same thing happened then as it did before, no menu appeared. When the mission first started (first thirty seconds or so) I got it to appear briefly, but then it vanished abruptly after.

You failed to specify "multiplayer only server improvements". Nothing about the applications CPU utilization, which is exactly what this thread is about. Improved dedicated server optimization is a welcome addition, but it is ignoring the elephant in the room. Dedicated servers usually do not significantly affect the clients performance anyway, unless of course they are in desperate need of an upgrade. For the record, I get the exact same FPS range in MP and SP environments. Specifically comparing the DUWS Modified mission. I get the same performance on ultra settings with 133% render resolution as I do at the lowest graphics settings. My total CPU utilization never goes above 50% even with core parking disabled completely.

So glad I stumbled upon this excellent mission! I do however have some questions and suggestions. Is it possible to fly helicopters ourselves to for example sling load equipment to the front? Also, I just love flying choppers. :cool: In addition to using the current ammo box system, could it be possible to use the virtual arsenal with appropriate restrictions on gear? I find the virtual arsenal to be very intuitive. When can we expect the next version of this unique high quality mission?! Keep up the amazing work good sir. You have my vote!

Noticed this is a sticky thread now. Is there any change? Is there a fix or workaround? I'm getting very low fps (15-30) with everything maxed out on ultra at 1080, and still very low (15-45) fps with everything at the lowest settings. CPU utilization is at about 50%. Specs in signature. Making the game unplayable for me unfortunately. Don't know what the cause is. Shooting at a moving target with 20 fps is not easy.
