Hi Sickboy, just a quick question on the updater (ive tried searching this forum & checking FAQ's in the six portal, but I must be looking in the wrong place). How do I install other Arma 2 mods in six updater? I have ACE with ACE_X, PLA, SM all running fine & they update with no problems when i run the updater, but I dont know how to download other mods from there, specifically I was trying to add "Aiaktalik" island, and I found it in the mods list in the portal but dont know where to go from there to get the updater to download & install it, or what im meant to click? Just a quick pointer in the right direction would be a great help. thanks :)

Really great campaign this, the 0.3 version is awesome! :D

All we need now is a Beirut map & a Hezbollah army for the game! Im not wanting to flame with saying that or wanting to start some political argument, but I was glued to the TV when all that kicked off a few years back so think it would make a good mod :) Oh and edit, I would love to see a Merkava in Arma 2!

Really like the look of that panther! Cant wait to play this! Does it have interiors too? :)

I would say give it a go, the community have released plenty of excellent missions & campaigns that the bugs your worried about will be barely noticable due to decent scripting & so forth, just make sure you have a decent rig so you get the most (or almost the most) out of the visuals :)

Just been playing that, I downloaded it from Armaholic last night! I got as far as going to attack the convoy but a russian patrol wiped me out. Seems better than the previous versions (which were still good), only things that kind of bugged me was that I dont think the CDF would be talking in American accents, but regardless its still a good effort you've made! And I dont think the CDF would have that radio booming out quite as loud but its still a nice touch, especially the Led Zep :D

Did bardosys new campaign ever get finished then? I keep checking back every now & again for updates but its all gone quiet! I downloaded the first few missions released but still waiting to play the full campaign :)

My bad, T95 then :) hope to see it in Arma 2 anyway!

So with the Russians set to publicly unveil their new T90 MBT this year, will we be seeing it slipped into Arma 2 at some point? Ive seen a few images of it but its hard to tell if they are real ones or mock up pics http://www.3-d-models.com/3d-model_files/371m701.htm :)

Hope you guys include plenty of single player stuff too, some of us aint all that keen on MP these days (or is that just me? :p ) Mod looks great though, looking forward to it!

I'll give that a go later cheers Wolle :) Im keen to play any Everon missions in Arma 2, its been woefully under used so im glad I've a few to go at now! *edit - I downloaded 1.4 but am still having trouble getting certain team members to exit the chopper when we reach the drop off points, any ideas? Thanks

Hi Wolle I tried these last night but found a bit of a problem with the insertion on swordfish 1, the chopper lands on the mountain top, I tell the team to disembark but on each attempt one of the team wouldnt exit the chopper, never the same one each time! I tried switching to that team member to manually get him out, but then the game got stuck with the screen flashing black & I had to ctrl-alt-del to exit, im using ACE though & it was over a week ago when I downloaded these missions so it could be either ACE or im on an older version that you've since fixed, any ideas? :)

At least we've moved on from "all your base are belong to us" :p I dont mind voice acting & cut scenes in games as long as they are done well & not 10 - 20 minutes long a la the metal gear series! the voice acting in Arma 2 is strong in some parts & weak in others, but at least when theres action going on you can pick up a bit of panic in the voices, not like in the recent Aliens vs Predator game where all the marines talk like theres nothing happening even after they're ship has just been destroyed & they're under attack by hordes of Xeno's!

Hope this project isnt dead & someone can carry on some work with this! :)

You knows it! :p

I remember seeing a video on youtube a while ago where some Iraqi insurgents are firing a mortar while someone across the street films it, and one of the rounds goes off in the tube, ouch!

The voice acting in the marine campaign is appalling though, theres no panic or urgency in the voices of anyone even when the excrement is hitting the air circulation unit! I dont hate the game & have enjoyed playing it, but theres a huge sense of "could have been better" all the way though each of the campaigns

Its fun enough to play, but its far too daft in places, like if a marine sees you as the Predator, you just have to hide for a few seconds & they say "dont let your guard down" & go back to their patrol routes, and they arent at all bothered if they stumble on the corpse of one of their mates! Even in metal gear solid 10 years ago guards went on the alert if they saw another dead guard!

Hope this is still alive! Dont forget to put the Bodie Creek suspension bridge in there :)

I was in a Game store on sunday & Arma 2 is still sitting at number 16 in the charts, pretty good considering it will soon be a year since it was released! :)

Good hope it fixes the problem, the game seems pretty enjoyable especially as the Predator, but the pauses every couple of minutes were really starting to get my goat last night to the point where I switched off a new game after an hour or so's play, which is something I never normally do until im struggling to keep my eyes open with a new one!

Thats my problem then I think, I got a GTX275 a few weeks ago which has been great with Arma 2 & all my other games, yet this one even though it doesnt look like it should seriously challenge my hardware seems to be suffering with this random lagging, very odd! Im getting really brassed off with PC games being released buggy & unfinished, and then having to have intrusive online software (steam) chugging away in the background to let me play them!

Anyone else playing this game (PC version) getting random moments of lag in single player? The game seems to be running great, then all of a sudden & even when theres nothing going on it just pauses for a few seconds before carrying on as if nothing had happened, its similar to when it does an in game save, but its just at random! Its not my rig as far as I can tell because the game is lightning fast at all other moments other than these random lags! :confused:

Will the mod be playable in single player as well? I'd love to play it but not if I have to do it multiplayer, not really my cup of tea anymore

Hi Bardosy! Just a quick one before I try these missions, do i install these first few into my missions folder or the campaign one? Cheers! :D
