    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.

    Enjoy!

    ps: - If you can't see targets with AC-130 , cycle through the F keys to highlight enemy vehicles

    Yeah, I can appreciate that. But if you need a hand, it doesn't help by essentially starting an "ArmA2 is a crock of shit" thread. "I'm struggling, please help me" would be a better approach.

    Besides if he's gone beyond mousepad already then there ain't much we can do.

    What lurks out there is just abominal...

    :rolleyes:

    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).

    Well, I didn't really follow all that because I wasn't that interested in the game. But even if it were true, I don't think he deserves such personal attacks. He's just a guy doing his job, not some Evil Boss of the Evil Game Corporation you make him to be.

    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:

    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.

    :)

    This can't be happening..

    I'm pretty sure I eliminated Lenton in one of my missions:

    The ones behind the strike have been identified as Svetlana Lumenko - a very nasty she-wolf from partisan section, Simon Lenton - an ex SAS man who defected to russia long time ago and is generally known to be a very unstable case. He likes to dress up as priest , just to mention one of his odd habits...

    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.

    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.

    Update

    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.

    If only we had a real President, not a socialist traitor whose destroying the country from within, maybe we'd back Israel and with a show of force and support we could avoid the whole situation.

    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.

    Your imagination is only limitation ;) Currently I'm making a coop scenario where you're having a bachelor party at a cottage and two of the guys must go to a nearby town to go look for a striptease girl that is running late... you have no weapons at start, except two of players are copy with a shotgun and a pistol in a police car... ;)

    Hehe, reminds me of an MP mission I made for our server after attending to one of our members wedding in Poland.

    The mission involved the bride being captured and players as wedding crashers had to convince local arms dealer to give them guns to go out to get her back...

    Possibilities are endless.. usually just seeing a map location might give an idea for a mission.

    Go take a stroll in a map and see what happens.

    :cool:
