    Locality

    This is an excellent script. We use something very very similar. Bravo for using CASE statements. It is far easier to read than a complex If statement. However, I see something I need the veteran scriptors to help me understand. I see that the variable Context is a global variable. Now I guess that is ok since we are not doing a publicvariable command on Context. But technically this should be a _Context a local variable right? Now that I think about it, at this point in the execution of a new client connection since the variable is not PUBLIC (ie. publicvariable "Context") then this code is perfectly safe and will operate in all situations. Right?

    ARMA 1.08-No rifles after patch

    Yeah I am still learning about all this addon compared to mod stuff. One thing I learned early is that an addon can interfere with your update. I convert all addons to mods And if I did put an addon in. I make not of it and remove it before any patch updates. So far after two major patch updates I haven't had any problems and I use many of all the great addons (converted to mods if they aren't done for me.) Are there any experienced OFP/ARMA players that can confirm my method of give me a better BEST PRACTICE?

    Interview with granQ

    I am definitely looking forward to listening to this interview. GranQ is a hidden talent who create true GEMS of value. That are also sadly hidden or overshadowed by other popular works. Perhaps this will be the day that everyone finds new treasure.

    Countermeasures?

    Can you say Mando Missile System version 2.2 ? If you cannot now you soon will. Again thanks Mandoble for a great mod. Actually its not a mod. Everything is done via script. Thanks!!

    AA and Patch and ?

    Apologizes for writing this :offtopic: but I finally feel it safe to post in a thread like this. I mean no disrespect to anyone who might feel this. Just light request. Nothing heavy here. When I see the term "AA" I think two things and two things only. Anti-Air and Americas Army the game. My request and hope is that the entire community to use ArmA since that seems to be the unique and defacto standard way of abbreviating Armed Assault. Its not a big deal to me just a pet peeve since many of my friend and I used to play AA - Americas Army the excellent free game. I like Armed Assault as a game much better. Or should I call it ArmA. LOL. This game is much more my style for game play.

    Eventhandler issue

    UNN, I just got done spending hours struggling with this until I got mine to work. I wish I would have read this thread before then. However, my next task is proving this will work for JIP as well. The plan is to delete the following line. Then you might be able to have your JIP clients run ProcessInitCommands; which of course is reported to only work once so it should only fire the ones that haven't been fired on the new client. This assumes that the JIP client will receive the new vehicle along with its INIT line intact upon connection. I have NOT tested this yet because its bed time. But I will. My question is in case you guys have tested it already... How do you handle JIP after using UNN's code?
  7. How do you get the vektorboson console to work for Arma? Following the instructions do not work for Arma? Or is there an equivalent console that can be used for Arma?

    KP CTI Released

    Thanks to the addon free version we immediately got 18 people on and did a quick 30 minutes game. My team loved it though admitting it took some getting used two. It would be great if we had an option for a Commander and a Co-Commander slot for use Team vs Team players. Its GREAT to take a town and spawn AI to guard it as well as your back points and move forward to the battlefront. The other team didn't like it also admittedly the first time playing it. But they love RTS an they say "this one didn't flow as well". I'd like to know more what that means. But I think we will play them again on RTS and then we will force them to play us on KP CTI. Excellent game even without the addons. I heard you had removed the radar from the attack helos?? How did you do that without the MOD tools? Did you achieve the goal in the area of balance you were trying to achieve?
  9. So far your find has fixed it for me. One sure fire way for me to duplicate the problem is make sure I am on full screen with all my settings on HIGH and throw in the TeamSpeak Overlay and then almost within 5 minutes or instantly all looks like a scene out of the SuperMan's ICE Fortress except its all textured and colored and certainly not transparent. So I read your link and specifically... The good news is that clearing the check box for "Enable Write Combining" seems to have did it for me as well. Thanks for giving back to the community with this find. I will report back again after I have given it some heavy extended play on MP for hours. Thanks again!!! I wanted to be the hero but your are Sp00d!!
  10. Tomorrow is here and and almost gone. Let us know. Many of us are waiting. I have discovered that I have not completely solved my issue yet.
  11. I got the same problem using my brand new 7800 GS. But the following fixed it. - I took out the card and reseated it good. - Made sure I kept the core temp below 50 degrees according to the nVidia control panel. - I did a complete uninstall sweep of all old drivers. - Installed the new official 94.24 I am sure there are other things I did. But I don't have time to share them all. But these are the key things I believe. And 1.05 and 1.07b2 are working fine for me. FINALLY. But if your graphics card has bad memory then you might have to return it back to the dealer for a new one. So far I am lucky.

    Dynamic Mine Field

    KP CTI author uses an FSM to generate a Mine Removal Behavior for certain AI mine removal specialists. The behavior is Search - Remove - Search. In fact, I've duplicated that using CrashDome's FSMEdit tool. FSM is pretty cool stuff!! BRAVO Kronsky!!! I love all your tools!!! Including your Portable Target Range. BRILLIANT!!

    8007000e Error in Vista

    Out of curiosity, which 1.07 are you using? 1.07.5154 or 1.07.5157 ?

    KP CTI Released

    Exactly. I have upload control of our dedi but because it require addons the dedi owner (who has been super busy) has not had time to set that up. Also we like to switch between other missions for variety but we like to verifysignatures which requires some extra admin stuff. So yes. Make an Addon Free version please.

    Non-blinding sun mod

    I want to keep the Sun the way it is. But I would like someone to MOD in Sun Glases. I do think real life armies have them. In my tournament if we had them, then we can charge a cost to them and make them part of strategy during the purchase of assets phase. I hope 1.07 didn't change the sun too much.

    JIP and init.sqf

    No I think the player is only null at the very start.

    Public Beta Patch 1.07.5154

    Wait?! Huh!? well that is your choice. I will backup my current 1.05 even though I do not have to. The previous beta version was fine. Once that is done. I can test 1.07 with zero fear and help BIS if I can report any bugs. Because once 1.07 is official no we may have to wait 2 or 3 months before the next patch. I don't want to wait to get the Helicopter bug fixed or any of the other bugs with high votes fixed. Thank you BIS for the opportunity to give you constructive feedback. And thank you for including the server version as well. Download complete.

    Armored add-ons

    I work within a two separate team v team tournaments. One tournament I play US and the other tournament I play SLA. In both tournaments, I think you will all agree that the SLA is lacking in the way of balance. This is why I am very excited by this post. And both ICs of both tournaments should be as well. My vote for an immediate need in the following order is 1. Tunguska 2. T-90 Any one of these in any order would be helpful but these are the MP team vs team community needs from my perspective. Thanks so much! I wish you God Speed in creating these. Don't be afraid to ask for testers. I know several SLA players who will feverishly test these for you. LOL. As they are screaming for balanced vehicle assets.

    Artifacts in ArmA

    Does it play fine after reboot for at least 10 - 20 minutes before the Artifacts appear?

    RTS-4 ArmA Released

    WOW. I'm talking to Mandoble right now 6 days after the freak storm. He says his "Lets cross fingers .... .... suddenly my PC woke up ...." The hard drive seems erratic but is working. The network card is fried. But a wireless card allows the computer to be operational somewhat. Although some pings are being rejected and so that is spotty. So I am recommending him backup his pride and joy and buy a network card after that and return to duty. LOL. He has recovered all but two unsaved scripts. So we may not have to wait 2 to 3 weeks afterall. This is good news for RTS fans. But very weird.
