CM Operation Flashpoint 3 announced | "Oops, they're doing it again..."
VanhA-ICON replied to Undeceived's topic in OFFTOPIC
Haha, I always purchase my games also after youtubing... NOT. At least he can't say he was not warned.... or then he is Templars little brother or something.. -
CM Operation Flashpoint 3 announced | "Oops, they're doing it again..."
VanhA-ICON replied to Undeceived's topic in OFFTOPIC
Guys, I got a PM whether I'd like to upload my mission to a site called Strategy Informer. Cool, I thought first... why not. Then after checking the site (which was very wide-ranged with games) I was a bit angry at a couple of issues: 1. ArmA 2 was categorized under "Shooter" section and guess where the DR was? You guessed right, "Simulation" 2. There was also a section for "Cheats" God how depressing... -
co10 Raining Lead [Combined**AC-130]
VanhA-ICON replied to VanhA-ICON's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
Here's an extra hint: When you finally have captured the depot camp and someone goes to using the laptop, best not the others to let their guard down. Who knows what might happen? OK, I do... hehe ;) Glad you're enjoying it. -
Here's my 2nd OA mission. However this one needs ArmA 2 co10 Raining Lead Download from my repository Armaholic link Download from Armed Assault Info Features: *AC-130 *UPSMON *GROUP respawn with BIS medical modules Story/background: A US depot was run over by the Takistani forces 2 weeks ago. Now the depot serves as a prison for local freedom fighters. The problem is also that a laptop was left behind which holds the option for contacting AC-130 gunship for ordering strikes. Luckily they have no password for it yet. While we retake the depot we could also use the laptop to get rid of 3 scud launchers located by the Zargabad airport. Your 10 man team will be inserted close the area and from there you shall proceed to the depot and use the laptop to get rid of the scud threat. The area is well defended by the 5th Takistani armored brigade so getting close would be suicide. Credits: *taskmaster by Shuko *JTF-2 & ICON squad for testing *AC-130 by Lurchi *UPSMON by Monsada *FOB base by Mike-USA Enjoy! ps: - If you can't see targets with AC-130 , cycle through the F keys to highlight enemy vehicles BR VanhA

Hi troops. Finally jumpstarted my Arrowhead as well and cooked something for you all: co08 Hitmen wear Armani v1.2 Download from my repository Download from Armaholic Changes in 1.2: *JIP players start in safer location if alarm has been raised *Removed both KORD weapons from the 1st target *Added a hidden ammocrate near 2nd target *Additional triggers to back up task variables *NEW: Parameter to choose if there'll be heavier tank presence (enemy) Changes in v1.1: *Added atmosphere to town *JIP players get a weapon but only if the alarm has been raised *Removed AA weapons and satchel from beginning (Killing target with satchel failed sometimes to trigger eventHandler) *Changed pistols from crate as silenced UZI's *Added reinforcements after alarm *Chopper might lift off *Small tweaks (The tasks JIP might not work properly but it's because taskmaster is intended for dedicated use) Story/background: The Takistani have a neutral camp in Feruz Abad where they have been teaching the local militia to use UAV's in search for US forces. The one in question has been stolen from a US airbase. Allegations of also using biological weapons have resulted in them approving an international team to come in and check the site. However, the team has been replaced by 4 elite killers hired by the US forces and assisting field medics to give credibility in medical residue search. 4 hitmen are entering a Takistani compound. Local resistance has managed to smuggle in a crate with some weapons in it. They said it to be in a tent. Once having dealt with the Takistani compound, destroy the UAV from Anar and go report your success to the local commander. CREDITS & THANKS: ----------------- *taskmaster by Shuko *JTF-2 & ICON squad for testing *Revive by [R3F] *JIP weapons by Andersson (JTF-2) & VanhA Have fun. :) VanhA

Creating a PVP scenario (2 sided coop)?
VanhA-ICON replied to alleycat's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=6357 Here you go. I once used this to make a TDM session for our allied friends. Good stuff and easy to use. -
Besides if he's gone beyond mousepad already then there ain't much we can do. What lurks out there is just abominal... :rolleyes:

Dutch Minister may ban remains in extremely violent games
VanhA-ICON replied to jerryhopper's topic in OFFTOPIC
This issue seems to rise once n' while in every countries. There has been few times in here as well when some psychologist or a minister goes on a personal crusade/rampage. I think it's a desperate attempt to boost one's job image in fear or losing next election or something. There's hardly no rational concern since we are aware of the age limits at least in here and they keep an eye on stores which sell the games. I have a tendency to go straight to the top when some thing annoys me. That's why those morons are in there. Write to the man and explain why he is wrong. I've always gotten a reply from each minister I've written to (sometimes with very nasty tone but don't overdo it). -
Oh, we got plenty of those in here. Here's one standing in "parola armored museum" http://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiedosto:Stug_III_parola_1.jpg Some of these were used in the film "Tali Ihantala" I think... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDX7IHP925U&feature=related The film is bloody great btw... :)

VanhA-ICON replied to Undeceived's topic in OFFTOPIC
The devil's greatest trick was to make people believe he does not exist. But there he is.... live in flesh at CM HQ. He is The Trickster!! :mad: -
Sure. With an automated message like: "With only under 30€ purchasing OA you can't go wrong! It might also increase your p***s size" :p

VanhA-ICON replied to VanhA-ICON's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
Well, the JIP issues are not easily fixed as sometimes the game just fails to run all the necessary scripts for the late joiners. I know there is a new version of the taskmaster but as I read it has some issues of disappearing markers for the JIP players so I'm waiting for a better version of it. The weapon issue is likely caused by glitch in civilian animation / revive script and I can't do much about that either. Usually it's fixed just by cycling the inventory few times. About the keys... I did not change anything regarding that so it might have been a temporary glitch... dunno That spawn place I could change also when I get a better task handling system. I just have to figure a way to implement that to the weapon JIP script. Glad you liked it. :) -

VanhA-ICON replied to Undeceived's topic in OFFTOPIC
This can't be happening.. I'm pretty sure I eliminated Lenton in one of my missions: Ok, the name was slightly changed to protect me from a lawsuit. :D Anyways. I think the whole scam is a bloody disgrace and CM should be bombarded with a napalm strike. -

VanhA-ICON replied to VanhA-ICON's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
Thanks for the feedback TheScar. Very good points indeed and I'm sure I can fix most of the issues. I'll have to check for new version of the taskmaster to see if it gives the JIP updates better. I'll be sure also to remove the Strela launcher and maybe add more cover for the UAV. The alert in the base is a bit tricky. I can sure make the Mi and the BTR to be activated but each unit takes awhile to take notice of situation because that's always how it is when using "setCaptive" commands. Each enemy unit has a "Hit" eventHandler to make sure one can't just get away with doing nasty things. :) I know it's silly that you can walk around with a pistol in your hands but some things must be forgiven... (although I know how to make it so that it detects that also) We never had that issue with spawning without collected weapons... but anything can happen. I think it's in the [R3F]-revive I'll be sure to make some changes. Ty. VanhA -
Why not support your president instead of bashing? And what about Israeli nukes? When will US launch an attack there to disable that threat? What if what if...... And maybe Iran really just wants to produce cheap electricity. it is their right. (I want to be naive.) Still no proves have been presented of actual nuclear weapons. This is total bollocks once again... pardon my language.

Samishi katta desu!! Looks like the "Kamikaze" that drowned the mongol fleets is also present. When this game arrives I'll quit making missions to arma 'cos that time will be spent with this... :)

I don't have money to upgrade anymore.... Can you please start downgrading the games? :) (Win XP 32)

Sami Järvi (Sam Lake) was the one also who gave his face to Max Payne. :)

I remember buying the first one just to support a local company. Luckily it was also a fantastic game... not gonna be bothered with third one 'cos it's sold abroad.. I'm looking more closely to Deus Ex 3

Very neat script. I added this in a WIP mission and it works great. Just what I needed. Ty. :) -

Remember that the best protection is common sense. When one has that it is quite safe even with lighter antiVir programs. :)
