    It almost sounds like you're telling me what to do... :)

    Two things you can do.

    Log a feature request with ACE asking them to change how logistics work.

    Secondly, you should be able to re-add R3F Logistics yourself. Just add the folder and change the modules.hpp. The guys here or on Skype should be able to help, if you ask nicely. :)

    Yeah I figured that all out. Sorry if it sounds like I'm telling you how to build your mission. I didn't mean that. I'm just saying with the current ACE logistics systems, FoBs will be very difficult to build.

    The ACE logistic system works but it's not a viable solution.

    You have no way to actually angle any of the materials needed to build an FoB. The only way to get a bunker or sandbag wall to a desired location is to hook it up to a helo and have it fly it to the location and drop it perfectly while a person is already at the FoB position to unload the equipment, somehow not killing him in the process.

    Basically, you need to re-implement the R3F Logistics for it to be useful in an ACE mission.

    I find it really amusing that particularly in this type of thread... with all that has been proved about how important storage subsystem is. ie(HD/Ramdisk/Flash)

    People still post "my A2 is slow" etc... but they dont say what HD etc that they have...

    BTW Wasdie your CPU is very weak for A2

    My Q6600 3.0Ghz runs at 70 -90% on all 4 cores most of the time.

    if you can get at least 9 series quad and get it up near 3-3.5Ghz you will see big gains.

    I actually do plan on getting a Q9550 as I can't afford a new motherboard and powersupply.

    I know the E6600 is a bit weak but offline I can pull in 40-50 fps but when I get online I get 20... A bit annoying. Also I turned down textures a bit because my 7200rpm HD is a bit slow for this game. I figured since it pulls so many textures from the HDD on the stream, it would be stupid to have it pulling the highest res. I wish it would do a better job of storeing textures in the 1 gig of video memory I have which is DDR 5...

    Am I missing anything. I can get my custom face to appear on my local machine but whenever I log into a server it just gives me the white face and character model.

    I have the image at the right spot and its called face.paa.

    My friends can get their custom faces to work on the server. The weird thing is that mine is actually smaller than theirs (under 150kb).

    Is there anything else I need to do?

    Hey all, I want to make my own custom face.

    I would like to apply it to ArmA 2 at the highest resolution possible. What would I need to do this?

    I have some good pictures of myself (ones on all 4 sides). Whats the next step?

    Would anybody care to eliminate the middle man and just do it for me? If not, just show me the next steps. Its just my own personal face, I know it wont turn out 100% because I'm not physically modeling my facial structure onto the object, but I think I can get pretty close.

    The one problem I have is I don't own photoshop and cannot get a copy anytime soon... is that a pretty big roadblock?

    I don't know what could cause this, but whenever I join a multiplayer game, my FPS drops a good 20-30. When in single player I stay around 30-60 depending on where I am (30 in cities). I never get above 30 when playing online and it stays at a constant 20 usually.

    This for obvious reasons annoys me. Any suggestions?

    Hi all. I know that there have been threads before about Steam questions, but I am still worried about it.

    There are a number of reasons, the biggest being mods. I still, through searching through the number of threads on the steam version, are unclear about how to install mods and make them run. The other problem I have with the steam version is if I lose internet for whatever reason, I cannot play. Its a really hard choice.

    This is killing me as ArmA 2 is the game I have wanted for a long time now but I have to wait even longer for the retail version to hit the States. Is the Steam version every bit as moddable and user friendly as the retail version? Should I wait for the retail version? What are my options for offline play, especially if I don't have an active internet connection.

    Hey all. I'm doing some work with the Evo Blue MHQ V3 map. I have been updating it to work with the ACE mod as a few features didn't work as well as adding the weapons and vehicles into the new Evo map.

    Anyways, I need some help with a scoring script. Is there any way in ArmA to access the number of enemies, armor, and air a player has killed. ACE doesn't score like ArmA does, so im basically writing a little script to score properly. This isn't an ACE thing this is an ArmA thing I need, really I could use this outside of ACE in any mission I want but it would be pointless.

    Thanks.
