  1. To set the height change the last number "2" This setpos [(getpos this select 0),(getpos this select 1), 2] It really need to be scripted but it will work if you place it in the units or objects init box.
  2. I didn't have the problem when I tried it, you need to place a unit on the map first. I don't have a clue how to use the 3d Editor, I carn't even place a unit on the map.
  3. I carn't justify spending money just to have it freeze my pc every 5mins.
  4. They are now located in a log "arma2.RPT" open it with note pad and it should be located here :- C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\Local Settings\Application Data\ArmA 2 I'd still like to see it in game as well though.
  5. Hopefully now the demo is out they can start and fix some of the more serious stuff, many of the post about crashes are spread out. There are more than just three or four of us. Oddly when I first played the game 1.01 and 1.02 I would get lockups that I could escape using task manager but from day 2 I've had no more CTDs just lockups that can only be fixed by a system reboot.

  7. 1.02.58134 still getting system lock up.
  8. I've just tried that script but it just puts the units into the sea. Ignore I put a coment in the script that messed it up.

    Crashes randomly since patch

    I carn't seem to isolate this problem as it does seem totally random, when it does lockup it dosen't write anything to the log either.
  10. I've noticed a few floating bodies after an explosion. Choppers taking off while units are unloading causing the death of units still getting out. When placing sandbags the direction dosen't equal the true direction for shapes such as corners and half rounds, this makes it most confusing. It seems to be only the smaller sandbags that have this problem. AI walk through Bar Gate when closed. AI won't walk through fence gate when open. AI wonder off for no reason. AI like to turn 180deg when a waypoint is placed on them. AI Landing the C130 at the small Utes Aiport taxi to the end of the runway and then get stuck in trees. AI do strange things when using a waypoint and positon, they go to the position and then back out and then in again. Sometimes they stop at the top of ladders in mid air. Bar Gate and it's icon are 90deg out. When I check the log I keep seeing this error String STR_DN_FACTORY01 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY2 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY3 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY4 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY5 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY6 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY7 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY8 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY9 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY10 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY11 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY12 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY13 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY14 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY15 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY16 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY17 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY18 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY01 not found String STR_DN_FACTORY2 not found
  11. I'm currently trying to find the cause of this as I have the same problem. Last night I managed about an 1.5 hrs before I had a crash usually it's 5mins, I didn't use any triggers and was just watching as a civ. I then put in one trigger and changed to a soldier to do a bit of shooting and within 5mins there was a total lockup. It just takes so long to check everything.

    Crashes randomly since patch

    I'm getting lots of crashes in XP. I just spent a couple of hours crash free in the editor until I added one trigger and within 5mins it crashed. It's hard to say if that is the cause but I'll try and repeat it when I have more time.

    Patch 1.02 Stability Survey

    I'm just playing in the editor and all I'm getting is endless CTDs and total lockups. I don't have a stellar PC but it is a reliable one. with just two AI and a trigger the game can crash or freeze, I carn't say if this happened before 1.02 as I've only ever tried it with 1.01 + 1.02 patch. Right now it's not even worth trying anymore, I haven't messed any of the files or used addons.
  14. CTDs and lockups in single player mostly in the editor, I've not tried MP. Running Windows XP Pro, AMD Athlon 4800+ x2
  15. Parachute jump: Movement keys are frozen sometimes. Various crashes and total lockups when using the editor (happens more when using modules) When running at 4x Speed: If a chopper takes off I hear the engine at 4xspeed and then again at normal speed (not a major issue) but it could be a duplication of sounds. Aircraft won't follow way points when taxiing. When using Civilian module the people get stuck in doorways and sometimes are dead. Sometimes when trying to move a waypoint they just stick, I can always move the last one.
  16. I just ran a test, I dropped in about 5 civ logics and a civ Vehicle one along with four animal logics. The vehicles show up really well, I also got a few people but I didn't see any animals. I tried again but this time I synced the people to the cars and put it on 4xspeed,one of the AI did get in and drive off follwed by a AI on foot running after him. I also followed and they ended up at the Airport. Also at the airport on the runway were all the cows. It does seem bugged as sometimes the AI appear in doorways and die sometimes also I saw one run into a sealed building.

    Problem on the shooting range.

    I've had this game five mins and have the exact same problem, the script just all seems to run together. Great first impression. ---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ---------- My second impressions aren't that great either, I tried the parachute jump and my controls froze when the chute opens. I tried again and this time they worked but the third time they froze again. It looks like I won't be doing any parachute jumps ---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ---------- I guess I'm doing really well, I tried first aid where I was supposed to drag a soldier back before giving first aid. I didn't I just gave first aid and got the pass no dragging required. Then for good measure I tried the obstacle course and got a CTD. not bad for my first hour or so.

    How Important Is FSAA

    A bad shadow I can live with but bad frame rate it terminal.
  20. For me it's not about how it looks even though it's simulating camera effects more than your eyes it's the headaches that this causes that is the problem. It's not about the FPS as I've played games with good FPS and blur and they're still a problem unless turned off. For those of us who suffer this problem it renders the game unplayable it's that simple. Effects should be used but sparingly, over use as were seeing now makes it look like a cartoon. Also if bloom happened like it does in Arma2 would'nt you have some sort of eye protection?

    Freelook without TrackIR?

    There is FreeTrack a DIY Version http://www.free-track.net/english/ I did try it and it did work but there was a bit of lag but then my PC isn't the best. I haven't tried it with Arma.

    German 1.01 Patch is final.

    Usually a final is just means that the previous beta patch has passed testing, it dosn't mean they've add even more new fixes. At least that's been my experience with other beta to final patches.
  23. I've gone with Zavvi, I'm paying as little as I can given the fact that it has motion blur which may make it unplayable for me I don't want to waste money even if I do have to wait a few days more.
  24. I only have one game bought through steam all others are on disc I don't have any problems either way. As some people have the game now do they use steam to run online or can you bypass it? BTW I have it on Pre-order for £17.95 half the price of steam.
