I meant the three laws of motion. I was thinking about "Laws of physics" while typing it. Like trying to type yellow, while you say green.

Into mess? The thread is about improving ARMA 2. Making it a mess would be to add CoD sounds and cinematics and gameplay... Which this thread does not intend to do.

A basic physics engine is an engine that implements the three laws of physics. Which the engine in ARMA 2 clearly does not.

That's simply a bad implementation. Oh, yea, because Dragon Rising is a physics engine for ARMA 2. Retard...

Something that moves isn't physics. That's just movement. Sure stuff fall down, cars stay on the roads and helicopters stay in the air. But it's not real physics. Planes hitting the ground rotates in random ways, cars landing on 2 wheels will slowly (like a feather) land on all 4 wheels. A bus with no wheels touching the ground, will still move forward if the wheels are turning, as long as any part of the bus is touching something. The wheels are not moving the bus. The wheels are just turning with the bus' movement. Eg. if you make a script you put a car in the air, and give it an impulse forward, the wheels will turn as fast as the car is moving. http://www.arma2.treesoft.dk/videos/BadPhysics1.wmv No object in any of the games behave anything like they would in the real world.

One that does even just basic physics. Which the physics engine in BIS' games does not. It's just something that kinda looks like physics.

It's not even a real physics engine.

Sarcasm isn't always a negative gesture.

You mean like you already can, by holding the right mouse button down over a target?

That way you could also divide bullets. At the moment, if you have 2 magazines, you could share one with someone else. But if you only have 1 left, you can't give like half to another one. With the feature I suggest, you could basically take an empty magazine, then put half the bullets into that magazine, and give it to a mate.

They could simply add the possibility to move bullets from one magazine to another in the Gear menu.

Revert is NOT restart. Revert is used to load an earlier saved game. Escape > Save. Escape > Revert > Choose saved game.

Huh? What?

I meant the clan itself. Not versus another clan.

That's why you play clan-matches.

Hello. I've had ARMA 2 uninstalled for some time due to disk space insufficiency. Today I installed ARMA 2 (Retail) along with OA (Sprocket). Combined Operation works just fine. Then I decided to buy BAF from Sprocket, and downloaded the installer. But after it's finished unpacking, Setup.exe throws a c++ runtime error. The usual "The application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way", or whatever. I've tried redownloading, and it's the same problem. I have copied the entire setup that was unpacked into Temp, and was wondering if there's a way I can manually install it? I have a BAF folder with an Addons inside it, etc., but I'm not sure if this should be installed as a mod (@BAF) or copied to the addons folder, and even more, what the shortcut should look like. Anyone know why the setup fails, or can give me any info of their folder structure? If it should be @BAF, etc. and how their BAF shortcut looks like. Thanks in advance. PS: These are the files the sprocket installer unpacked into temp: The first time the setup ran, it asked me to activate, and I did, then it said "Loading", and crashed. And everytime I try to start it I just get the splash screen saying "Loading", and then 2-3 seconds later I get this:

Suppressive fire: They should shoot. But only if there are enemies. Safe: Safe is not the same as Aware. In Safe mode, they'll lower their weapons. Stealth/Danger: Stealth will make units whisper, stay low, turn off laser pointers, etc. Danger is also known as Combat mode. This permits lasers, etc. Keep low: This is actually "Copy my stance", which will make units stay in the same stance as their leader. If he go crouch, they crouch. If he go prone, they'll go prone, etc..

That was an internal joke.

EDIT: Never mind! Apparently turning off my anti-virus and firewall wasn't enough. I had to switch my anti-virus to Game Mode too -.- I'm having this problem again. Disabling my anti-virus doesn't work. The BAFsetup.exe that is.

Just reinstalled Windows, and installed ARMA 2. Now I'm about to patch it to prepare it for OA, BAF and PMC. So I went to www.arma2.com, but it's in czech. Even though I found the updates page with some trial and error, it'd like it to be in english for future use. So does anybody know of a url argument that'll change the language? www.arma2.com/home_en.html is also in czech.

Thanks :) Please read the topic before replying.

I love Real Virtuality. But the lag of physics is a real shame. Perhaps that'll change now that a free version of DMM2 is on the way.

It's closed. After the TestControl. And already fixed it (Hint: Edits). It was merely the text editor's fault.

So. I've made lots of dialogs, and today I was going to make a small one in OA, but no matter what I do I can't make it work. I haven't the faintest idea of what the hell I'm doing wrong >.< I've saved the mission, loaded the mission, previewed the mission... Same warning every time. What the hell am I missing here? If it's obvious, then I should probably get some sleep (8 am now). EDIT: I just wrote some random symbols in my description.ext and when I save, there's NO error! It seems like it's not even loading my description file. What is going on here? EDIT 2: Eh, okay, it seems to load it... If I put crap before the constants it crashes. If I put it after, nothing happens. Eh? What's wrong with my constants? EDIT 3: Nevermind... It seems to be Notepad++ using Linux style linebreaks instead of Windows style... Wtf...

Use the "CYCLE" waypoint type.
