Ok. Sorry. Just saw it on Blues News, and it wasn't in the news thread.

I'm sure you've already seen this but... oh yeah baby. http://www.arma2.com/latest-news/british-armed-forces-deployed-in-takistan_en.html

Sorry guys, very basic one this. I've added CBA, UK Forces, weapons and UKForces 115a into my Arrowhead steam command line. mod=@blah blah;@blah blah etc... How to get to use them in the editor? I'm still only seeing Blufor US and the usual units. Cheers.

Should have guessed. Thanks guys. I'll give it a go.

Strange. I get no option to be gunner in the AH64 in editor mode... Even with the middle mouse menu, I see manual fire, but that's it.

When I insert the AH64 into the editor, how to I access FLIR? I've been pressing 'N' but it doesn't cycle optics, I just get night vision. Bit of a newb quesiton I know, sorry.

I can only assume that at 10,000 view distance, the textures are forced to be loaded quicker. At low vd, they pop onto screen whenever you reach a certain distance from them. Sounds odd, I know, but it might explain stuttering.

Here's what I did. (I'm 1.3 patch obviously..) 1. Downloaded a mod. 2. Created a new folder in the main Arma2 directory called '@modname' 3. Inside the folder, I created a folder called 'Addons' 4. Inside that one I extracted the PBO files for the mod. 5. Ticked the mod name in Linebacker and launched Arma2 through LB itself. 6. No mod seems to be working, and even missions that need a specific mod say that the mod has been 'deleted.' Eh? Have I done something critically wrong? Does the '@' folder name need to be the EXACT mod name for example? Cheers guys, desperate for that RAF Chinook!

Two islands. LOVE IT. I can see utterly INCREDIBLE MP games with two sodding islands. Attack, defence, ships. Yes. It's the FALKLANDS!

Downloaded it three times now, from two different places. My default folder for Arma2 is not on C, it's on an E drive - but that shouldn't stop a patch... Because I'm getting this: 'Arma2 is not installed on your computer or installation is corrupted.' Got it. Had changed my folder to 'crysis64' (like most of us did.)

..with the '-cpucount=X' parameter? I don't think I've done it yet. Will I see much a difference? Newbie I know but, thanks...

I like the brothel.

Even nice mountain roads with great views are fantastic for mini ambush missions. I found a great windy road up north and set an enemy convoy up towards my position. Great fun.

I've flown around a fair bit - I have to say that (Misty Mountain?) peak at the far North seems to be a perfect place for a nice hill assault user mission. Has anyone else found any gorgeous / interesting / scenario worthy locations they wouldn't mind sharing pics of (with grid refs of course...!) Cheers!

Based on my initial experiences with ARMA2, I can imagine people complaining about their merchandise on the board. "Dear BIS. I recently bought a mug with the ARMA2 logo on it. When I poured coffee into it it started leaking out of two holes in the bottom. I can now only drink from the mug for about five seconds before the coffee leaks out completely?" BIS: Yes, we know about the leaks. We're working on a patch. Hehe.
