I assumed this was the issue also, but then I started a mission with NATO and CSAT, and they had to get really close before they would engaged. I even created a ZUES mission where I placed the units down and I gave them "waypoints" to attack eachother, and they still had to get pretty close to fire. I really want them to have a spotting range of at least 800 ish.

I have no issues with the future setting, I just want a more modern/realistic map. I want a large middle eastern map again but not a rehash of takistan.

I would like the ability to force the AI pilot to fly level and straight. Not adjusting at all to the terrain. Just tell it "Level Flight" or "Orbit" and it flies its patter with minimal/no adjustments. Would make it easier for reconing, and make it MUCH easier for target acquisition and firing. Especially when switching between the gunner and pilot seat for marking and targeting.

Very late bump, but wanted to bring this up again. I have downloaded a few mods to try to remedy this, but its still really bad...

I have posted this same issue many times. There only fix is to script something. Or you can try ARS AI or bcombat AI. Right now I am testing them and ARS seemed to have increased the range a bit but its not perfect. On thing I resorted to, was I used ARS AI to make it so that all enemy AI communicate with eachother over a long range, and I created UAVs on the enemy side to look for players. A cheap, aritificail way to increase the AI view range.

Right now I am trying to work on some missions but I have run into a new issue and I cannot seem to figure out how to remedy it. Its making missions waaaaay to easy for my squad because we can pick off the enemy too easy. I have my sever difficulty set to regular, but I have the AI difficulty set to expert. I have the skill of the AI set to the max in the editor, and have set this in their init this setSkill ["spotdistance", 1]; this setSkill ["spottime", 1]; Yet even the AI snipers seem to need to be within 200 meters of the target to spot them, MID DAY. This is all hosted on a local multiplayer server. Here is a couple of screen shots of me trying to use Zues to force the AI to attack the lone blufor, but they dont see eachother, they just keep running then crawling to his position but not opening fire until real close. http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/29607943326969152/A47B50383C6F920E21EE0227A1BDFE2BBED3A760/ http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/29607943326970123/5FB73642722E5A253B42D5E3FE12ADA6B67749E8/ I remember the AI use to have xray long range vision, now they seem blind as hell... ---------- Post added at 04:32 ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 ---------- And after some further testing, it seems like they do better when on level land, but still pretty bad...

Because this is less about the enemy knowing, and now I am at the point to where I think the issue is AI driven. The AI cannot spot eachother beyond 200-300 meters. That seems completely different from the standard thing I posted. Why can two people standing only 400 meters not see eachother, when a year ago the issue was the AI sniping people from over 1000 meters away. Not sure if this is related to an issue with a mod, or if something has been driven that way. The issue with scripting becomes creating an artificial scenario where I have to calculate too many variables. I dont want to say "If they fire this closely to the enemy" because if they use suppressors its not realistic. Basically I want to increase the visual range and ability of the AI over all, for both blufor and opfor. If an enemy is 500 meters away on a level surface, they should be able to identify eachother and engage at eachother with out any scripting.

The best way is a "load" waypoint for the helicopter synced with a get in waypoint for your squad.

Negative, I just switched over to Leighs from the old IS-mod that has since been pulled. They are all indep and they indep is set to friendly to "none". If I get close enough they are hostile... They just have piss poor visual range it seems.

Im running into a strange issue with the Iraqi Insurgent Faction ( I havent tried the ohters yet) However, I am running into issues where the units are fairly blind. I have my units 400 meters away and the infantry cant spot them even when being shot at. I even added a script that says that the units "know about" them, and they are even revealed [_x, 3] and even have dotarget. And yet the insurgents cant seem to notice my units. The one exemption is the technicals and static weapons. However the base infantry seem to not notice. This is in Coop FYI. And I have their skill set to 0.6, and have them set to the following in the init, and still no luck. Seems to only be with the units in your pack so far I think... "spotDistance",1 "spotTime",1 "aimingAccuracy",0.4 "aimingSpeed",0.4 "courage",1 "courage",0.7

Still doesn't work, the VIP1 still just sits in the back...

So right now I am using a mod pack that makes the "insurgent forces" independent, which doesn't work well with the campaign I am working on. However, to get around it, I go into the mission.sqf and change the side from GUER to EAST. This seems to work perfectly but does anyone know of any side affects that may occur? I know one is I cannot edit them in the mission editor anymore with out it acting weird, but I generally don't need to once I make the conversion.

Just wondering, does anyone know of a way to make the convoy follower in a "tighter" formation?

So I am running into this weird issue with one of my squad mates. We are all using the Robbert Hammer m4/m16 pack (I have tried reaching out for answers with him but no luck so far). We are running into this odd issue where 5 of us are all able to see the guns, but one person cannot. I have ensured that they are all installed properly and enabled in his game. We had him download them fresh from Armaholic, and still no luck. We even tried deleting all of the bikey and bisign stuff to make sure there was no issue with that (which shouldn't be an issue as we don't run on a dedicated server). Any idea what might be causing this? I cant think of any conflicting mods as we are all using the same stuff.

That worked actually, not sure if it was the acc folder or the command line, but that fixed it. THANK YOU!!!!

So as I mentioned earlier, my friend is having issues with this mod, even with a fresh download. So he cannot see it even in single player by himself with his own virtual ammo box. Here are screen shots from his folder and in game (he disabled the invisible add-on) http://i.imgur.com/ZF6yzfu.png http://i.imgur.com/v5LeFPu.jpg

Working on a mission right now and I am having an odd issue. I have a player who is a sniper in a gillie suit and a 50 cal sniper. He can rapidly shoot while standing on top of a hill, I assume 300 meters away, and the AI are not engaging him at all, they run around like they cant see him. Yet if I have a UAV 600 meters in the air, the AI spots it instantly and starts shooting at it. Any idea what adjustments I may need ot make to get them to spot him easier?

Hey, I have the strangest issue going on. Right now a buddy of mine has this installed, same version as me, yet for some reason in game he can't see the guns when I equip them, and he cant see the ammo box. I VNCed into his machine to check it out, and I confirmed the files are there, are not corrupt, but for some reason they are not working. I even had him redownload from Armaholic, disabled and re-enabled the add-on, and still nothing. Any idea what the issue might be? I even deleted the bisign and bikeys to ensure that even if there was some minor mismatch, they should still show up. But they don't even show up in the virtual arsenal for him.

Alright just started using this today and I am liking it for the most part, but I am running into one issue... Missions that I had where radio triggers existed, I don't know how to work anymore, because I can't get the radio commands to show up anymore. Am I missing something?

That info was actually good enough, I managed to find one, an IR strobe. using that worked perfectly. Thank you for the help!

So I am trying to use a method that I normally use for HALO missions for my helo, but I am running into an odd issue. When my helo is "attachto" something to make it hover at an exact spot I want, it gets odd graphic glitches. Here is an example. Is there a better way to make a helicopter hover in a spot that is abnormal with out it looking messed up like that?

Title says it all, here is an example. Any helicopter I have attached to a static item to make it stick in place does this weird stutter.
