ok, i need help with this artillery. i have my set of 3 m119, im the leader and i can access the arty menu. Im within the range limits and i fire, only one round as i cant get the others to fire with me, and i cant access the ..type, burst,ammo ,spread, because when i click on these it just moves my target cursor to the map point below these words. Roger so far!? so i fire one round and watch the eta fly across the map, I switch to my lone fAC sitting on a hill near the impact point and......no rounds, they've dissapeared!!! Ive tried grouping with the arty, mortars and the mrls...I get the fire at position menu, and no joy, they cant fire, they say "change co-ordinates". As for the Mrls? I cant even get that to fire anything, all i can do is move the targeting reticule around the map, I cant even push fire as the word danger comes up and the fire button greys out, and i am within the targeting zones! so any help would be great, im using combined ops, with updated ace and slx although ive tried it without slx and still cant get it to work oh and tried both ways, with the arty module and without...i get the same result. cheers.

Spot on! Buddy! just what i was looking for...thanks for the heads up :bounce3:

Hi guys im using sjb's sas troops, the ace version in missions, and want to add additional kit, i can get them wearing the rucks and because they already have invisable rucks i can add all the kit i need but.. if i use a different model i want to be able to pack the rucks with the kit, ive looked at the ace files and usage list but still dont understand how to do this. my scripting stops at adding lines to init box of the unit. so in short 1 how do i add a ruck and have it preloaded with kit 2 have an additional weapon on back ie; sniper with a .50 carrying, say an ump45 on back? My aim is to have different load outs for different missions, sniper with rifle,smallarm and kit in ruck, clays,M86pdm's C4 ect, to recon or assault gasmasks flashbangs cs satchels etc. help in this would be great. thanks

hi just loaded up the mod folders with the A10 and sound, in game is there a different A10? i cant find it...and before you say it, yes i know how to set up a mod folder with the addon folder internal...and yes, done the disabled folder thing with one or the other Im using vop sound mod will this have an impact? cheers for your help on this, seen the A10 on utube and it looks superb

Crack and thump! real life the crack is the bullet and the thump is the weapon firing, from the time lapse between the crack and the thunp, you can judge the distance to the shooter... in theory anyway, bit of a git tho when theres lots of cracks and thumps from all directions, chuck in noise of impact and shouting and very load bangs, smoke, your weapon firing along with a section of others and the fact your pooing your pants cos you gotta run around in it all.......do we really care? its a game and it sounds pretty good to me, and no doupt theres gonna be soooooo many more sound mods to choose from...just my ten pence worth

woo.. ive been playing on my laptop, after a few adjustments, mainly dropping view distance down to about 1100 everythings cool for me, havent even started missions yet, still having a great time in editor just me and the ACM and SOM module and a few enemy units to boot... but then i installed the patch.... OMG no team switch in editor when your charecter dies??????????? and no ones mentioned this??? why?? team switch in editor for me and prob loads others is an important part of the whole ARMA experience..this allows testing of missions from all angles...and lets face it, is bloody good fun......BI please sort this out!!
