Why did they do it with GTA4 PC then? Saying 'it sold pretty well on consoles' is a blunt understatement. ;)

+ 1.000.000.000.000.000 Gonna buy LA Noire PC anyway, just to send a small signal a pc version is appreciated.

My script: (old one so dunno if theres a better way to do this) // get_nearestmarker.sqf /* - returns nearest marker of an array - returns empty string if nothing found */ private ["_nearest","_break","_array","_pos","_i","_marker"]; _nearest = ""; _pos = _this select 0; _array = _this select 1; _i = count _array - 1; //if array isnt empty use last array marker as nearest for a start (if he exists): if (_i > -1) then {_nearest = _array select _i;}; if ((getmarkerpos _nearest) select 0 == 0) then {_nearest = "";}; //search through rest of array for nearer markers than _nearest: //(dont do if _array has only 1 marker) while {_i > 0} do { _i = _i - 1; _marker = _array select _i; //compare distances if ( ((getmarkerpos _marker) distance _pos) < ((getmarkerpos _nearest) distance _pos) ) then { _nearest = _marker; // player sidechat format["%1 is nearest now",_nearest] }; }; //RETURN: _nearest call like [my position, array_with_markers] or [ [x,y,z],[marker1,marker2,marker3, ... ] ] Hope this works for you

It is. Its like saying 'i'm playing ArmA on 3DFx card' :D

Shame. My father still got the movie on video. :( Guess they were all lucky to be alive.

I know where you're coming from, but i was talking from an Admin's perspective. When things like you describe happen, 99% of the time no admin will witness them directly, they only see <personA> TKed <personB>. The only hinch of what might have happened would be if personA types: "SORRY but you... ... ran in front of my scope. ... got into the tank that i shot a second later. ... apparently didnt read my warning about blowing up the radio tower. A little sorry is always good just to inform ppl that whether guilty or not, you're a nice guy who wants to keep on playing rather than being kicked.

Happy Birthday from Germany to you, Operation Flashpoint. Once again, thx for - thousands of hours taken away from my sparetime - thousands of Euros invested in better hardware to enjoy you even more - thousands of posts typed on here and over at OPFEC is search of wisdom - thousands of tutorials & scripts downloaded & tested - thousands of codelines typed in my scripts only to see they were sh!te - thousands of AI groups watched on the desert island (to see whether they do want i wanted them to do) - hundreds of pizzas wasted on OpF Lan sessions and finally making me realize graphics don't mean anything when you're having fun. Thx so much. Greet your brother 'Resistance' from me when you see him. ])oc out :)

If you find a good one PM me plz

Evolution is a capture the island (CTI) MP mission which can be played for days if need be. It's not a campaign. Also, any MP mission can be played as a SP version if you just open a MP LAN session for yourself and start up the mission.

Not saying sorry for blue on blue should be punished by admins of any server, regardless of the circumstances. Maybe ppl behave rude / careless because no admins are around at all?

Nice video. :) The GITSEvolutionSomalia_RACSV2.isladuala.pbo goes into your MPmissions folder, all other addons you need (see eggbeasts link) go into a modfolder you have to add for yourself. Incase you dunno how to setup modfolders: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/modfolders

Don't think so tbh, as its the admin / username of the windows account you used when you installed ArmA2. You could try changing that within windows itself and then see if ArmA2 has a problem. Good luck.

There are 18ers and ... 18ers. Since there's no way you can tell them apart without first having a chat you need some rule of thumb to go by i guess.

I really like good ideas, but even a good idea is just that. Ppl who actually model & skin & script & test addons need to be motivated by ideas, and thats easier when they see something. Protecting original concepts is totally ok, each to his own, but holding back ideas is just limiting the chances seeing them brought to life by somebody. Although i'm not really sure posting concepts is enough for a new thread in this forum. An ideas & concepts forum on here hasnt been invented yet.

Wishful thinking. Can't blame them. ;)

Charon's Predators are using something similar i think: http://www.armedassault.info/index.php?cat=addons&game=1&id=1613 You could try and send him a PM how he did it Also, these HALO model seems to use same fx: http://www.armedassault.info/index.php?cat=news&id=5195&game=1

If i were Gaddafi i'd try to contact the server admin and ban all rebel players for cheating. Or pointless camping. ("We're on the defender side, its for them to attack but they dont do anything!")

You can play any MP mission on your local pc for yourself, just open a Multiplayer/LAN game, choose your island and Evolution and start. If you dont see it, you have to DL & copy the Evolution-xxxx.pbo into your MPmissions directory first.

Are the sessions US based or Europe? And there's a casual gamers group here on the forums: http://forums.bistudio.com/group.php?groupid=20

How do generic SciFi forces look like? I think there's a universe of possibilities for infantry-types alone: body-tight spandex suits, overalls, light body armor, heavy body armor, exoskeleton. And think of the 'tanks' in SW, some have big tyres, some tracks, some are hovering above ground. In which category do MECHs go? Tanks too? Interesting thread though.

Here is the same weapon recorded with different mics at different positions and each sounds different: http://vimeo.com/20869893 Any sound engine not taking this into account is simply outdated today.
