  1. Hello All I am having some BIG trouble playing ArmA online. Here is the situation: A friend and I like to make online passworded games to try out new add-ons and missions together. The problem is, after being online for about 20-25 minutes the game crashes. ( You know, the game freezes and seconds counting up unitl the connection is lost.) This happens every single time we make a game without fail. This is occuring with and without any addons. This is also happening while on line playing evolution, ctf, bezerk, ect. on other peoples servers. Even while I am playing, I get a message stating that I am losing connection. So, I am a noob online gamer, but have never had this problem before with any other game. I consistently get booted in about 20-25 mins, no matter where I am playing and what type of game it is, or no matter how many people are in the game. (The 20-25 minutes: Yes, I have timed the occurances.) I am aware of Ping, and other factors such as internet connection, and what server you are playing on, ect. I have heard of opening ports and such, but have no idea how to resolve this issue. ArmA is NOT fun anymore if I can't play online. There is nothing more frustrating than getting kicked every half hour of so. Makes it very difficult to get into a game. Has anyone had this issue? Does anyone know of a solution? Please help me. I am about to just give up. My question is this:

    Hello All I am trying to put together a few veichles, but I have this problem with the shadows of the wheels: http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg137/missiongoal/shadows1.jpg Can someone help me with this Please!!!

    Shadow help Please!

    Thank you everyone for your assistance and expertise. I truly do appreciate it. I have been working on this forever, and cant seem to adjust the position of the cargo view I can see the cargo view in O2, but there are no vertices to select. Any suggestions?

    Shadow help Please!

    Yes, indeed very easy.  Issue resolved   Thank you I have gotten into trouble in the past "adjusting" the lods.  lol. Ok, there is something else going on.  Please have a look: No interior through back window. http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg137/missiongoal/shadow3.jpg Inside view: http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg137/missiongoal/shadow5.jpg Triangle shading on driver and passenger side windows: http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg137/missiongoal/shadow6.jpg I think some of this has to do with the cargo view lod, but not sure exactly. EDIT: I have also noticed the color of the truck has gotten VERY dark compared to the original color. It seems this happened after triangulating the model. Any thoughts on these?

    Shadow help Please!

    Lol thanks, I figured it was something like that. Now, my question is what is the correct way to remove proxies from the shadow lod. lol. I have put together a number of units, but this is my first vechicle and have not had to do this before. Any help on this? Please.
  7. Major Blood

    Shadow help Please!

    Closing the shadow lod did the trick! Lol, now it seems after doing that I have a new problem: http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg137/missiongoal/shadow2.jpg Are the cargo proxies now showing up as shadows???

    Shadow help Please!

    Thanks for your reply Jackal. Â I have managed to go through each lod and set the edges to sharp for the tires, and have ensured that my selections are correct. Still no luck. Â all the faces are triangulated Can you explain this as well? Is this to be done just to the wheels? Â I am noober

Sidenote: I am sure this is a simple fix, and its funny, I think most people had trouble getting random faces on the units, and I am asking the opposite. I am complete noob with configs and just learning O2. Any help is appreciated.

    ArmAural

    Agreed Peoples tastes in sound mods are so diverse, I think it is a good idea. It sounds like a great start. Good luck in your hopefully continued work. Major

    Simple Config Question

    Scars09: That got it done. I went into O2 and changed the named selection. It now works perfectly. Thank you all for your help.

    Simple Config Question

    Hello again Thank you for your replys. Quote: Scars09 maybe its enough to delete the swap_hhl entry posted above. sure shot is to rename the selection in o2/your model. I have removed the "swap_hhl" from the config, but no luck. I am sorry I dont understand what you mean by rename selection in O2. The desired face shows perfectly in Buldozer, but is ramdom in editor. Quote: General Barron Urgh.... don't put CfgModels and CfgSkeletons info directly in your config; rather, create a model.cfg and binarize your model. Otherwise some users will get errors when they use your addon. Barron this is a random config that I found somewhere, and my first attempt at getting a unit in game. I dont have the knowlege required to understand your statment. I am complete noob and only do modeling and textures. Besides with this being my first unit addon, it will most likely be for personal use only. I am obviously missing something here. Help Pleaseee

    Multiple Units in One PBO

    Hello All I have a quick question: How do you add multiple versions of the same unit to one pbo? I made a unit, and there are three versions of this unit with different gear. How do I add all three to one pbo. Is this defined in the config? Would someone please tell me
  16. Major Blood

    Multiple Units in One PBO

    Ok. So, do you name each version of the addon, then you actually have to rename all the texture paths for each version and then add it to the config using that name? Is this correct? Please let me know.
