  1. Why is PR using taliban, so many mods use these once "terrorists" that live somewhere in an area where it's occupied by the "best armies in this world". Still they didn't got any terrorist convicted. Made up ghost criminals.. Chedaki are worse criminals and a better made up ghost team.

    Or use Bush his private guard.. they're pretty terroristic!:bounce3:

    Warfare isn't really, really PVP.. I think you need 3 straight hours to finally find an enemy that actually is a player.

    Keep your political opinions out of general topics, there's an off topic forum for that stuff.


  2. No one mentioned ARMA2 PR (Project Reality). PR will not be small PvP games probably but still PvP with realism in mind where 2 (or more?) teams battling it out. They had a thread here but stopped and all new info is now on their website and there are some juicy screenshots of their work so far wich is UK vs Taliban/Insurgents, new vehicles & weapons, new island (Afghanistan) and i think new ways of playing it like new features and functions.

    Maybe this isnt what OP was after, but its about PvP so cant hurt right. :)

    I think a lot of people were put off by their poor attitude since they can't seem to accept a critique of their work or ideas like most modders in this community do. Still, they should bring an influx of new players and hopefully some decent pvp.


  3. lol some of the better ones don't have as strong filters and don't bother your eyes so much.

    Maybe it's an issue with win7 64 bit?


  4. Weird. Mine says at bottom iZ3D dymanic test. No ARMA2 in that list. Then again my ARMA2.EXE is not in bohemia/ARMA2/ but in bohemia/ directly.

    Seems yours detected ARMA2 in that case and failed mine. Gotta investigate some more.

    I have ArmA 2 on Steam & running Vista 32 also so I don't know. Sucks you are the only one to reply and you can't get it to work.


  5. Also make sure you installed the anaglyph direct x driver and not the other types (should get the option when you install drivers)

    Yep tested all that. Checked if it was 64bit friendly and there is a 64bit folder so i checked the test file and it all works. Also chosed profile "ArmA" wich is ARMA2.EXE according to the program.

    Tested with hotkeys and without. Chosen the anaglyph in the selection dropdown. Dont know why it doesnt want to run.

    hmm, I don't have a profile set.

    h also the armma 2 profile is at the bottom of the list the top one is for arma 1


  6. Hmm I set it to activate with hotkey and it runs a set up when you launch the game to adjust everything. If it doesn't try shift + num* it's the default.

    Oh and I usually have it open in my taskbar tray.


  7. So, I don't have TrackIr or a giant monitor, however I am still able to get an even more immersive experience out of the game and you can too. I'm talking about 3D people :eek:

    For those that can afford it, you should probably invest in the expensive hardware in order to get the best results that you can, but I have a solution for the rest of us. Anaglyph 3D (that's the cheapo red and blue or red and green glasses)

    Someone has probably done this already but I figured I'd share since I have nothing else to do this morning :p Pretty much all newer Nvidia cards have this built in and I believe ATI may also have this capability now though I am unsure about that. You can also go here http://www.iz3d.com/ and get their free anaglyph drivers. Only the Iz3d drivers are XP compatible though I believe.

    Once you have the drivers, all you need is a pair of anaglyph glasses. You can find these in comic books or magazines sometimes an there are some DVDs that include a couple of paper ones. Amazon and Ebay can provide you with them at a low cost.

    Make adjustments while in game to eliminate ghosting and get the clearest image. You will be amazed at what you see. It really adds a new dimension (pardon the pun) to the game.

    I tried to include some screen shots but the game doesn't have a built in SS capability and as it works like an overlay Fraps and PrtScn won't work. It won't capture on video either :(

    Try it out, you'll be glad you did.


  8. Could have, if I was into butt kissing. Sometimes honesty is harsh, at least I offered to forgo finalizing an opinion without first hand experience and took the time to acknowledge that they are contributing to this community. I can give my opinion about it, whether positive or not, and not flame them for having done the work. Not everyone likes the same things.


  9. Refuse to give any money to EA and the videos I have seen of PR have been less than impressive and did not give me the impression that so many fans of this mod like to express. It will be nice to actually experience your work first hand rather than trying to temper fanboy reporting with my own built in skepticism. Also, it is always nice to see new talent join the community.


  10. They also have an MMO coming out based on GTA..

    Don't like GTA4 much (surprise,surprise) but RDR looks good to me. The older the firearm, the more I enjoy the shooting personally. You Western fans should check out 1866 mod for Mount and Blade, pretty polished and lots of fun fighting as Cowboy or Indian (Commanche/Apache).

    I was looking at that one today lol.


  11. I've found that to get a better experience, I fire it up and skip-key through differents scenes letting each scene load all the LODS before moving on. This forces textures and models into the cache. After a minute or two of doing this I restart the mission and kick it off again and the LOD popping and performance is much better.

    I'm not 100% clear on your description but it sounds like something I've run into and thought I had solved. If you get a moment, can you PM me with a better description?

    I'm off to do some gaming and a little more work on the mod.

    PM sent
