Lol!! Sd

Nice map but for some reason I get quite low FPS on this map. SD

Ranger this is the Airliting script by Raven. It allows for ropes to be deploye from helos and also cargo lifting by helos. Just chuck the module on the map and it will work, no need to synch with your unit. SD

Could be the use of the "N" word at the begining of the mission. I was a bit suprised to see it in there, and can see how that might cause offence to some folks. SD

How do you use Raven's lift module? I have tried multiple helo's with no success. I have even tried putting null = this execVM "\RAV_Lifter\InitAir.sqf" in the init box of the chopper, (as a last resort) still no joy. Could someone let me know how this works please. Edit] Nevermind I didn't realise it was a module DUH!!!!! [end edit] SD

@NMDanny Check this out, i posted it a couple of pages back Use this in the exec field this addweapon "ACE_wirecutter" (to add to player) or this addweaponcargo ["ACE_wirecutter",1] (to put it in an ammo crate) The thing to remember is that if you equip the wire cutters it will replace the main weapon, but you can put the cutters on your back in the gear arming screen SD

Actually current version is 0.5.3 (went live today) SD

I'm not running Vista ( I run Windows 7) and I don't have many (if any) crashes at all. SD

tried it with and without mods with the same result. black screen and ARMA crash. SD

@Panthersfan. I am getting the same issue as you with the spotting scope. I just created a quick mission on Utes with just me and a crate with the scope in it. I took scope from the crate, fine, placed the scope, fine, got into scope as gunner, black screen, alt-tab out of arma error messsage on desktop saying arma 2 has stopped working. Had to ctl-alt-del and stope the Arma.exe. So it seems you are not alone with this problem. I am running in Win7 Ultimate 32bit BTW (if it makes any difference) SD ---------- Post added at 05:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 PM ---------- @ TheBlessedPig Use this in the exec field this addweapon "ACE_wirecutter" (to add to player) or this addweaponcargo ["ACE_wirecutter",1] (to put it in an ammo crate) The thing to remember is that if you equip the wire cutters it will replace the main weapon, but you can put the cutters on your back in the gear arming screen SD

again I am asking for help with this six updater problem. Anyone know a fix? SD

change the key to a different one. go into your userconfig\ACE folder and open up the ace_keys.tpp file in notepad scroll down to this class ace_sys_interaction { class Interaction_Menu { key = 220; // win l shift = 0; }; }; and change the key number (in red) to a different key. There is a list of key numbers at the bottom of the file. SD

OK thanks guys. i just wanted some confirmation that I wasn't gonna screw up my updater. I said yes to uninstall it and it seems to be updating as normal. [Edit] Looks like I spoke too soon. now when I try to go to the web page i get this error which pops up and then dissapears quickly. I managed to take a snap of it before it disappeared though. I have tried choosing the update ruby and update ruby gems options and still nada. Any ideas? [End edit] [2nd edit] Although the go to web page isn't working the update still seems too, but I would like to get this fixed if possible. [End 2nd edit] SD

For the past day or 2 I have been getting this error everytime I start the updater. I don't want to unistall the rack (whatever that is) until I get some confirmation about what this error actually means. I can't remember even asking to delete anything anyway. Cheers SD

Thanks Sick. The merc addon was the problem. I didn't know it was updated, I downloaded the latest version and it all Works fine now, will start operations later tonight. SD

Tears of the sun? would be a good mission. Get the peeps across the border and kill loads of bad guys. Any ideas on my error BTW? SD

cannot start this campaign I keep getting this error then once I click continue I get a you died screen and I have to end. I am using option 3 for ace. I am up to date with all ACE updates (I updated today) and have all the required addons for the campaign. Anyone know a fix for this? SD

Yeah I had the same thing happen to me, once the nuke went off, bam 9-10fps I think it was the mushroom cloud as once I was away from it my fps jumped back up to normal levels. Loved the mission though. BIS more of this please. SD

Steam version is not the culprit as I have the DVD version from 505 games and this is what I see after uninstalling ARMA2 ans deleting ALL mods and configs. Please be patient. This update may appear to take a long time to complete. It is updating and installing very large data. ARMA II DVD ArmA 2: Updating version 1.01 to version 1.05...

WTF is going on? This is a right royal pain in the arse. Lugnut may be onto something though as I indtalled my game to E:\ARMA2\ as opposed to the default location SD

Thanks for that :( SD

yeah. Would be a nice easter egg. I liked the christmas trees in OFP :) SD

@Bushlurker How do you go about making a replacement config? It is something I would like to do also. SD

Nice. great for a winter battle SD

Brilliant. but I can't get the ballistics info to show up. I use the radio to turn it on but no info shows. Still a great tool though. SD

yes, unless Manzila updated the mission SD
