Alright, that's what I thought. What about the Cobra not being able to "turn" at all? I keep trying but nothing happens. Its much easier trying to turn a uh60... its almost like you cant turn a cobra at all. Is it true you cant?

I don't know what it is. But I have been playing ArmA for a few weeks now without any problems. Now all the MP servers look like this: I don't know what it is. I just turned my firewall OFF and yet they still continue to show no servers. My filters are off, and everything is on the default setting. What can I do?

Even the opening sequence in the campaign? I see all of this czech lettering + the reporters czech voice. Is the text here for everyone still in a different language? Just wondering, thx!

Nope Timble. Just that little update. Change log says it all ------------ So will the German version have English Dialogue inside? What version must I buy now that will incorporate the English voices in-game?

I've done this manually (both ways), and have used the last three updates.. still.. the campaign voices are in Czech... is this normal?

Thanks yall. Idk where the hind came in. I did a bunch fo searches for ArmA and that image appeared lol. That was before I had arma of course I have a better "desktop friendly" wallpaper on my home computer. The actual image is slightly smaller allowing easier view for desktop icons. I'll edit my post later tonight or something. I actually got that cool, calm, and cold feeling again (like the first time I played OFP).. all alone, no enemys, nightime.. felt like I was part of the game. Now Arrrrrr, I shall make another video soon. Just wish I could turn hud off, (there's a console, wonder what the commands are).. then I'll go movie crazy.

Alright. I apologize for the quality of these videos (Both visually and cinematically).. I made them without considering what it would look like when I was done. All in 30 minutes work. The wallpapers are used inside of the video and that is why I posted the wallpapers/video in 1 post instead of different threads. Victor's 1st ArmA Night Fight Montage (Video is very short) FileFront Download ~Only 12MB As promised, I maka mexican and James Bond MIX.. (Non-OFP/ArmA related) YouTube I also took a picture of a town before my tank rolled in... and after: Before After Can make nicer videos later. However I know nothing of camera scripting.. and the tutorials are horrificly bad. Dark (Bordered) Wallpaper Light (Bordered) Wallpaper Light (Unbordered) Wallpaper I coooould make a video with over 300 units in ONE squad moving to a position. I made 100+ tanks with 300+ men move earlier. Sweet command system.

I'll make a ArmA video for you chaps. Though I still know nothing about any sort of scripting, I will see what I can do without a camera, with a hud, and some enginuity. Perhaps I shall make a wallpaper as well for yall. Hmm... What could top it off? Aha! A mexican and the james bond theme!

I followed "method A" and downloaded the patch, however the editor is still in Czech, whats up?

Did it myself. Change BIOS AGP Apreture Size settings to 32 from 64 Ran the flashpoint preferences and hadit auto detect settings I had to do something like change a value in my UserInfo.cfg file under prog files\codemaster\OperationFlashpoint\User\"your user neame here" I opened the file w/ wordpad and changed this value viewDistance=4999.999999 to a lower number.

I upgraded my PC from a 6800GT AGP card, to a 7900GTX card. Before, the game worked pefectly. I've had the game 5 years and within that time I've had three video cards, and never had any problems. Now with this 7900GTX my preformance is horrific. I can load to the main menu (takes 5+ minutes with NO mods loaded). Once loaded, if I simply open an empty map (even desert island) and place a simple soldier on the terrain and hit preview. It will crash OFP and say this on desktop: I have upgraded my drivers yes, infact I've even reverted to older drivers (Also the same drivers that were previously on my PC with my older video card). My Specs: Specs: Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Manchester 2.2GHz Socket 939 Video: 7900GTX RAM: GeIL Value 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Mobo: ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 Socket 939 ULi M1695 ATX AMD HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 320GB Monitor: BenQ FP93GX Black 19" 2ms LCD Power: FSP Group (Fortron Source) AX400-PN, RoHS, 12cm FAN, version 2.0, 2 SATA, 20+ 4 pin, PCI Express, 400W ====================== I've been deprived from OFP for days, I need my fix

Yes. No, first PCI based Vid Card I've ever had. I wento to asrock.com, downloaded all latest drivers for their MB. No luck. This has played little to no effect in other games (preformance wise). However, more games are prone to crashing to desktop now.

You know, after years of trying to read 100s of poorly translated tutorials for mission editing, most of which were almost impossible to understand. Comes a book, the 100p Editing Reference for ArmA. The book came standard in German and was officially stated that the book would be converted into English. However in a typical *should have figured* case, this happened:

Well I'd actually like to get through a tutorial without having to open up a dictionary to try and understand every other word in the tutorial. OFPEC said it would later be translated into English. Link

All the time spent to write those posts. Could have learned scripting - went into OFP - tested the core scripts - got arma - and made it yourself I cannot wait for RTS 4. I'll play CTI in a few years.

The only problem with my school is: The "tutoring center" is a scheduled class that you must attend 5 days a week. This "tutoring center" is not strictly on English nore is it strictly a 1 on 1 with someone else helping you. Personally, I do not have the time to have another scheduled class in my day. I work a full time job, and go to school full-time + some extra classes for more credit. I'm swamped, and if someone could be reading over a paper to try and help me, it would really help me better myself in terms of what my weak points in writing are. So if anyone knows of an "off-topic"/somewhat popular forum with many active members. I'd really appreciate it.

Alrighty. Well thanks everyone. After another hour of revision I finished it. Thanks everyone. Now one last question: Since this thread really doesn't have a place on BIS Forums, does anyone know of a forum where it would be more 'appropriate/tolerable' to post perhaps in an off-topic area? Because hearing everyone's suggestions is really a nice additive towards correcting one's own paper. Especially when your someone like me who's quite the anti-social & knows almost no one personally who would look over things like this for me. Has anyone a suggestion towards a very active forum where a proofread request would be 'okay'? Thanks again all.

I would also like to know the answer to this question

Thank you guys so much. I spent about another hour revising my essay as per your suggestions. Once I scrolled down and saw placebo, I was scared to think that the thread was already locked. HA! Thanks place, you da' man! Thanks death and placebo for opening my eyes on some of the weaker points in this essay. PS: For future reference, does anyone suggest a forum where a post like this would be more 'appropriate'? You guys have been amazingly helpful, and this was the first time I ever posted a thread like this and it has proved quite useful. If I ever had trouble with another essay down the road, I do not want to put a thread in the BIS OT forum since it is not the ideal place for it. Thanks again guys.

Wow thanks guys. I'll do a test on this tonight. (New mission scripter, thanks for your patience too). But what metal said was quite interesting. I haven't made it to that advanced type scripting yet; but what is: <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">_hypotenuse = {sqrt((_this select 0)^2 + (_this select 1)^2)} _a = 3 _b = 4 _c = [_a, _b] call _hypotenuse hint format ["c=%1", _c] That looks interesting. Anyways, I'll give this script I'm working on - a little test later today. Thanks

My First Script: A unit walks within 100 meters of an object. Once he is in the perimeter (100m) of that object, a simple text warning would appear, and continue to appear until the unit is gone from the area. However, if that unit were to die, his brand new toy (his chopper) would explode The script: Questions: 1. Once the unit is within 100m of the center object, the warning will go off, however it will continue to go off even if the unit is dead inside the parimeter. How do I fix this? 2. The chopper doesn't explode when "_Object" is dead, why?

Post-Note: Not a 'brag' thread. I just bought a $380.00 video card strictly for ArmA (It's still on the way and I don't have it yet). Did I make the right choice going for the 7900GTX? I know the 8800's just came out but for $649.00 I'll pass. Will my GFX be 'very well' in ArmA? Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Manchester 2.2GHz Socket 939 Video: 7900GTX RAM: GeIL Value 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Mobo: ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 Socket 939 ULi M1695 ATX AMD HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 320GB Monitor: BenQ FP93GX Black 19" 2ms LCD I have a 6800GT right now with OFP and the quality of the game is mid-low. Currently have textures on very low and view distance on 2500. MP games can lag me under 10FPS Average! But with this new video card and Arma, will my game be maxed out with settings? Or will Arma need more out of my system to run at HIGH 9+KM View Distance + Textures.

I mean not to brag. I say this simply because on my online OFP games I can hit FPS (Game FPS not internet lag), at an average of under 10FPS. And the 6800GT was smokin hot when OFP came out. And so, with this new video card, comes the thought that ArmA, will preform the same way OFP did.. under the 10FPS. Don't get me wrong, single player missions hardly lag, and I play the majority of my games fine. However, when I'm online with games like RTS/CTI my game just loves to go below 10fps. Yes. Socket 939.

I think... I think I just got *too* excited.. I mean wow!!!.. oo look a cookie
