Tankbuster

Big's pictures are right of course. Any vehicle with a diesel fuel tank is going to produce lots of thick black smoke when it burns.

I must admit, I've never really considered looking into this stuff. In the past, I've always used a mixture of experience, guesswork and ranging shots to hit targets. I'm going to print this off and study it. In particular, I've never got into tube launched grenades such as the M203 because I found it hard to get reasonable, let alone good. I think I'll install Kronskys target range addon and get some practice in.

Excellent news. ARMA without Domination is like a car without petrol.

Didn't work for my dedi. First a dll was missing so I found that, now it insists on have the DVD in the drive and then bombs out with "bad serial given in setup". The dedi installation is copied across from my gaming machine.

Guest :p

Yep. Good question.

It amuses me the way the users who are pro profanity switch mount reasoned, articulate arguments, while the anti, by and large, are impolite at best and abusive at worst.

......

While I love the word douchbaggery and will be using it in future conversations, I remain surprised at the flack a couple of experienced and respected members have been getting for putting forward something that is little more than a feature request. Swearing may have it's place in war, but I don't want it on my PC. My PC isn't at war, it's playing a game and that's there to entertain me. I don't get entertainment from hearing the swearing. Apart from anything else, even if I wanted it, there's a lot of it, more than the plot or context demands. We can turn the gore off, we should be able to turn the profanity off. Personally, I put it up there with the overblown HDR - we got by without it in A1 and OFP, why do we suddenly need it now?

Hear hear. I'm no prude, and I know that servicemen swear like, to coin a phrase, troopers :), but we really do need to be able to turn it off. I was disappointed with the original thread too. There was far too much immaturity there. Swearing == mature necessarily.

Many thanks ohara. I hope you can appreciate our feelings and frustrations. We adore this game and we understand that getting it even to this stage was a monumental effort, but there's clearly a long way to go. I really think we deserve something more substantial than "it's ready when it's ready". There is a developers blog, that'd be the perfect vehicle for better comms between BI and it's customers.

This was seen in Armed Assault too.

We've recently added Grid to our portfolio. We think the game nicely reflects the right balance between sim and game and it' at that level that we play A2.

What did you change? If I remember correctly from the Domination game in Armed Assault, it was in the init file. Also, I prefer using arma edit to edit the files. It helps with syntax. Notepad is a bit too basic for file editing for me

[OT]I'm glad you're working your magic on A2. Are you doing/do we need smoke viewblock in this game [/ot]

Is this inside the Domination mission? This feature is only in Domination. It's not a feature available in other missions.

Blimey. That's one unhappy punter. Still. Never mind eh?

The OP can complain that Evo and Dom are not good for the community, but the sheer number of people playing them would appear to tell a different story.

I'd like to know this too.

I expect ACE will support all of what you want, but in the past, Xeno (and I don't speak for him) has been understandably reticent about giving it full support in the past.

Jeez. Dyslexia is the least of your problems.

Just trying to help fella. Nobody made a personal attack, nobody suggested you are of low intelligence, though you seem to have issues when people try to help. That word is spelled wrong and by pointing out, I'm in some way denigrating you?

*grammAr*

Nice guide, I'll give it a go. I used to like flying helos in OFP but could never get it right in ArmA. This time, I'm going to persevere. By the way, it's Role not ROLL. :)
