  1. If you find it in Internet MP, it means there is nothing wrong with Arma or Arma configs.. You have a problem with your client & server machine network settings. Maybe your client is not in the same domain with the server mechine... Arma works fine...sort out your intranet/network settings.
  2. Then your client do not have access to that other PC.... If your friends can join then your problem is technical and non-arma related. Check your firewall, port and network settings.
  3. You need to run another instance of regular arma and find the server in the MP list and connect.

    What exactly is this game?

    shhhhh shhhh....don't scare the bunny off :p
  5. Yes thats the one I was talking about. Here is a small pack I prepared for Arma1. http://cross.kellys-heroes.eu/MyServer.zip -Download & Extract it into your ArmA2 Folder. -Replace the profile file in it with your Arma2 Profile. ***Leave the name "MyServer" as it is. -Make your changes to the Server.cfg and Arma.cfg files mainly Name & passwords etc.. -There is a shortcut in the folder. Either create a new one for Arma Server exe or change the parameters and the file locations in that one. Hope it helps ;)
  6. Is it too hard to see that they are working almost 12 hrs a day on fixes, Patch 1.02 that will accompany UK release...they are fixing & releasing a game and have much more important job then discussing theoratical stuff with an armchair general or someone who has no idea about developing... I'd rather them spend their time for the game than discussing stuff that you come up with in the toilet.
  7. Missions sometimes override your settings like view distance or terrain detail and such... Make sure this is not the case and the mission you play does not dictate any gfx settings.
  8. Multithreading sometimes does not come for free.... ;)

    What exactly is this game?

    Just a quick clarification for you...game can be played as simple as BF2 or if you want you can play it as complicated as mil simulation. It just gives you the options. Do not get the wrong idea of it being overly-complicated. It is not. In its multiplayer there are some servers which play the game casually and there are some servers/clans that play it really tactical. You'll also have many Coop missions or PvP maps/matches Game itself is suitable for all the needs with nice graphics.. ps...correction...may be I'm too old for marketing this to younger generation :D

    What exactly is this game?

    This game is Tactical Military Simulation. You can play it as FPS. You can play it as 3rd Person Shooter. You can play it as Real-time Strategy. These are all the interfaces. Game features realistic environment, physics (movement / bullet trajectory), environment (weather, seasons, day & night sky that true to time, animals, civilian life), equipment & vehicle models. It has its own AI which can perform all the task a human player can, from patrolling to using all the vehicles without the need of human guidance. It also has a 200 km2 of real-life map available to you at all times. Having all these available to you, game is extensively moddable & scriptable by the infamous BIS community. Many new missions, equipments, sound & extra-realism modifications and new maps will be released free of charge in the coming months and years. There is a single player campaign with some RPG elements but the game itself shines when you jump into the multiplayer or the mission editor where you can design your own missions. So...you are not buying a game...you are buying a game and a platform which is capable to keeping you in front of the screen for years unlike todays 2 week FPS titles. Not to mention infamous BIS (developer) support in fixing and optimizing the game for years to come. So it will be the best 50 you spend on a game...a game you'll play for years. PS..shit..BIS should hire me as his marketing guy :D
  13. you may be needing to upgrade the TIR software to the latest one.

    and the current poll result in OFP:DR forums about demo video. http://community.codemasters.com/forum/showthread.php?t=357992 What do YOU think of the new E3 in-game footage? - 213 votes -I like it. I feel that it is fine as is. 20.78% -I'm a bit worried, but I have hopes that the final build will be better. 40.26% -I don't like it. I feel that the animations and realism are sub-par. 24.24% -I'm unsure at this time. Perhaps with more footage I'll be able to make a decision. 14.72% There seems to be some concerns after the E3 demo video ...

    Another E3 Interview with Sion Lenton http://campaign-archive.com/?u=9611701a44284addcd3b16f1f&id=33c1857537 He spends another fav quote "The damage system in flashpoint is AGAIN realistic" which was confirmed by his earlier TM statement "As you can see, i've taken a hit to the head. It's nothing serious but I am bleeding badly." which you can find here http://www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-09-operation-flashpoint/50857 :biggrin_o: ps..don't mind my sarcasm..he gives some good info ;)
  16. There will be a second patch that will be out around the UK release date which will bring all the versions to the same level and make language selectable in all versions. Now whether this is going to be called 1.02 or 1.03 is another matter....which actually does not matter. All the versions will be patched up to the same version.
  17. You can use Yoma's AddonSync2009 for this purpose as well. It connects to gamespy and gets server infos, players and their death & kill info. It also lets you connect to the server. http://dev-heaven.net/attachments/download/839/AddonSync2009_Beta1.0.15.7z Just extract into a folder and run the exe. Be patient with using filter. Let the program to download all the info it tries to get. You may see some crashes if you apply filters to frequently.
  18. So is it confirmed that removing/not-having disableAI=1 in description.ext solves the vanishing slot issue??
  19. There IS an Arma2 dedicated server exe. It is provided with the 1.01 German patch. You do not need to have 2 copies of Arma to host dedi server.
  20. well posting what you think/suggest/don't like is of course OK but turning the whole thing into a copypasta is another thing. Its been 2 weeks since the release and you are posting the same things over & over again...for 2 wks now. Get over it... BIS doing best they can....or what they regard as "appropriate". If you can't live with that then next couple of years will be a hard journey for you. Copypasta (or Copy pasta, or COPY PASTA) is text on *chans that gets copied and pasted over and over. This is how it works: someone posts something on /b/ that riles people up. People see the topic and copy that first inflammatory post. Then a week or so later someone posts it again. Or they might post it a day later. Or a minute later. Whatever. The flamewar starts over again.
  21. Well you are not the fckin spokesperson for the other 1000 players.. If they are so annoyed, they can post whatever they want in the forums. ArmA2 is the ultimate Mil Sim as much as a GAME can be and as much as BIS wants it to be...if you want further realism, well I gave you the options.
  22. enough bashing already... If you are so disappointed and were looking for a total simulation then go pay 2000 USD and get yourself a VBS2 or better go enlist the army... :protest:
  23. ArmA2 dedicated server capabilities & documentation have not beed published yet. There may be additional parameters or commands available for A2 DS but we simply do not know yet.. As Q and Xeno said, A1 Dedi-server methodology & files also work for A2. Check out wiki from time to time for more information that is yet to be posted by the Devs.
