    Hi all

    I just quick question for you i noticed in arma2 shortcut its says run this program in compatibilty mode for:

    Windows 95

    Windows 98/Window Me

    Windows NT 4.0 (servicepack5)

    Windows2000

    Now iam not great with computers but i got Windows xp sp3 and i dont see this as an option in the drop down menu which has sorta made me bit worried.

    Is this normal or have i done some thing wrong some where:confused: if any one can put my mind to rest that be great:o

    Well, your right, I know alot of other people don't use the AI variant, but I find its easier when you have less than 5 people playing.

    I've tested it out on both dedicated and hosted, and it seems to play about the same (maybe a bit better on hosted, but its hard to tell)

    I'm using probably the same addons as everyone else: JTD fire and smoke, vop sound, trsm tracked vehicles, and of course the cba addon.

    I'm going to try and test out zGuba's addons right now to see if the trigger happy ones help at all

    Overall, its probably not a huge deal, it just makes it harder on anyone that is playing with only a few other people

    If your playing A.I version i recommend the SLX wip;)

    breog:usally you just have to run upto the flag might have to use scroll menu cant remember but sound like you might have bug

    Ahh not just me then, yeah its weird thought was some thing to do with 1.09 but its doin it in the version before aswell now used to add loads stuff like 5 tanks 5 jets pmc apaches etc etc and every thing was fine. Now i just got few guys defending the base and added f16 etc as side/main mission rewards which work.

    But when i load up the same mission only with an AH1Z at the start only 1 then the lift choppers dont work never checked ammo crates/mhq loading but reckon id have same prob as you cant get my head round it why dont work any more ill take look at the file you mention cheers xeno.

    Oh and btw xeno just like to thank you for all the missions you gave us your goin be missed big time hope you come back for next expansion:bounce3:

    Edit:hmm where is this RPT file mate

  18. Posted · Edited by muttly

    ahhh iam starting pull my hair out now wtf is goin on if i edit a mission now none my lift choppers work its like got mind of its own some times they work some times they dont ive checked and double checked copyed all files over even gone into notepad both versions are same never used have these probs thought was some thing to do with the 1.09 version buts its not doin it on version before now but all was working fine 30 min ago lol.

    All ive added to ai version it few guys with tow a tank and few sniper squads stop base rape that was working fine.

    Then i added 1 cobra at start give my self head start now no lift choppers work.Duno whats goin on used add loads f16s loads choppers tanks and stuff at start and all worked fine:confused:totally stuck

    edit:ok so i made 2 edited versions both are same except 1 has a AH1Z at the start and 1 has nt the 1 with the AH1Z at the start makes the lift choppers not work lol i dont get it.

    hi solus

    first off love the mod it adds so much to the game the ai are awesome but ive had some funny thinks happen.

    I was using the mod in dom AI me and full group of ai was just killing what was left of the enermy in the town,we had really cool fire fight my ai guys actully got loads of kills, towards the end was just me and 2 medics but my medics where sorta doin the own thing ignoreing regroup wondering about by them selfs.

    When i got into the town where my medics where there was enermy soldiers standing by them with there hands on there heads surrendering i just laughed thought was awesome.

    So i spotted a injured enermy soldier thought right ill capture him too went to drag his body then all sudden i was on the other side of the island in the ocean lol.

    Ok so i suicided repawrned and went try again this time i ordered my medic to heal the injured guy he did but the enermy soldier just got up and ran away tried running after him but didnt get any options to capture him in drop down menu,when i turned round and went back to my medics they had dropped there weapons and was running around with there hands on there heads :eek: apart from all this thow really enjoyed it some really cool moments in the game keep up the great work :)

    And the fact i was playing dom on lan and NOT a dedicated server might of had some thing to do with bugs
