It seems the MK18 is bugged after the changes introduced in the Bootcamp-update. Any chance for a fast fix or do we have to wait for ardvarkdb?

Any news about this? Can anybody confirm it is mission related? I run Escape from Stratis without any problems with a friend. This was however a Lan-Server.

I experienced some crashes on servers, who run some kind of evolution and also the red chain two times in a row now. I did not have that before the update, anyone else?

The only thing that had any impact on my rig was changing the texture resolution. I noticed less pop-ups. I also run ArmA3 from a SSD.

Try set it on Low and restart. Doing this in the video settings has only a effect for SP and Editor. For COOP etc there must be a server side script that allows you to do that.

One recently added feature in Steam is the possibility to create userguides. There are already some for the Alpha, an extensive guide like the one from shack-tac however could be of use to show new players the possibilities. I've been around since OFP and learned it the hard way and mastering ACE with all its features was not that easy without help. But we can't expect new players to have this skillset and long trained attitude. Especially if you they have no experience in such a genre. Todays shooters are a completly other background than the old Rainbow Six series e.g. Most players are not used to slow gameplay and the fun it can bring. This is a experience you can not simply have if you got no help. You must learn to experience it as fun. To have a friend showing you is probably the best way.

Seems like you can finally move now slower sideways without the bumping. This should make CQB a lot more playable :)

I experienced also warping etc since OFP, and somehow could live with it. But playing PR i realized it did that by only playing COOP. PvP though, i never played much, but with a fixed netcode ArmA would be a perfect game for that. PR will bring new players and thats always good for BIS. I would by ArmA3 just for a fixed netcode. I guess they are capable of fixing it, they did it with the deadly motorcycle, if anyone recalls :) I think a good network code would be a major improvement - right now the great possibilities of ArmA for MP gameplay are destroyed by that warping thing. PvP needs no "in-the-box" missions, it needs a good netcode - some good missiondesigners will do the rest.

I would like to see the possibility to change sights e.g. attach NV to an ACOG scope or something like this. And i want pistols in the holsters visible plz :D

This and the ability to move slowly to the side. Right now hitting Shift does effect moving forward in ironsights, but doesn't effect moving left or right. I died many times stepping to fast out of cover, while i tried to adjust for leaning.

PhysX hast this nice feature with different materials:

Surprising content or surprising news about the future of ACE? =D

@papoose244: yes you can. Look for kelly-heroes e.g. they host the needed files for yoma I have a question myself. If i place a ACE ammunition box - for example US-special weapons - i only have about 4 weapons (m249,m107,m24 and some other one) in it. If i open the amoury i see all ACE weapons. So obviously something destroyed my ACE ammoboxes - or is it a know bug?

I guess you need to edit the registry entry of your ArmA2 to fit it with the location on your new disc. You could also get problems installing official patches without doing that.

Nice to see you finally back in buisness :)

Vegetation_VeryLow_Visuals_R_PROPER.7z: 28 MB. First three and last resolution LODs removed. -> so even if you stand right in the bush, you see only the 4th LOD. First two and last two mipmaps removed. Vegetation_Low_Visuals_R_PROPER.7z: 102 MB. First two and last resolution LODs removed. First and last mipmap removed. Nice addon kju, my PC will be happy about this :)

Is the Unit (e.g. AH1) in a group? If it is, change it under "Special" to "No Formation" - otherwise it will always be in formation and this is often not the place you set it in the editor.

I think its a good idea, but i suggest to create it first for smaller groups of players - i really love smaller but storydriven coops especially when you play it on lan with friends.

He says the animations and shakycam looks great etc. and the shakycam can be turned off. Also the status is still Alpha, as you can see.

Looks like the GC-Gameplay we've seen there. However besides graphic lets hope for some ingame-video to see the game-mechanics. I really hate these poor console-textures...

And for Mel Gibson play Battlegrounds:Source. There are some 64 slot servers with linebattle running. Actually i hope they will do some day some kind of MMO with all the great experiences of ArmA/OFP.

The "Heavy Sniper" and "Sniper" loadouts are exactly the same - besides that the new editor-structure is great!

Great work, thank you guys!

Do you have newest Version of Effects, SIX_Pack, Eventhandlers?
