Where to locate Editor Save Files?
MasterChief096 posted a topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
Searched all over, where do you locate the EDITOR Save Files for all Editor projects? Not Single player scenarios or multi player scenarios but the actual editor projects themselves. Thanks in advance. -
Few newbie questions about the editor...
MasterChief096 posted a topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
Hi all and thanks for taking the time to look. I just have a few questions that you experienced editors should be able to answer easily. 1) My friend and I play ARMA II and I like to make custom scenarios for us to try out, just random different scenarios nothing messing around with scripting or anything too advanced. Just a simple fight over a bunker or city or what have you with waypoints. How do I enable the team switch function for use in multiplayer scenarios? (we use hamachi and join each other's games.) I know how to make an entire squad playable, but when I die in my scenarios I seem to have no option to respawn, while my friend on the other hand can re-log in as a different playable slot. 2) Is there away to "loop" waypoints? For example if I want to have a patrol walking about in the woods can I set a move way point on one end of the woods, a move waypoint on the other end and somehow loop the two so that the patrol will continuously walk back and forth through the woods? 3) Is there a way to select multiple units and waypoint them all the to same location to save time? I tried selecting the squad leaders of 3 different squads all at once and giving a waypoint but it seems the waypoint is only given to the first squad I selected. -

Really good answers but another question arises. I went to my missions folder in ARMA 2 directory and there is no description.ext file anywhere, or is it simply the pbo file that is titled [Mission Name].Chernarus/Utes? Thanks in advance. -
Okay, i want someone to take a whack....

I would love a zombie mod. -

If this makes it I will play it. Big WWII fan and definitely if its put into a realistic engine like arma. Best of luck. -
I hear people talking about 0.7 skill level. My friend and I are playing and want to know how to dumb down these AI and their aim.... We get shot from really far away instantly w/ seemingly no effort from the AI. Very little do they shoot the cover we're behind or not see us, they just one shot us.

...on the 7th attempt of manhatten. Spoilers.
MasterChief096 replied to Muzza's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - OFFICIAL MISSIONS
You guys need to chill. Bugs will get fixed. Developers will tell you its impossible to spot all the bugs before release, that it takes releasing it for some bugs to actually go through. Keep in mind they are probably playing the game on all the same computers w/ the same hardware, so all the bugs and everything that everyone experiences were impossible to catch. I'm having a lot of fun in the campaign. -
Hey, Question about the Patch
MasterChief096 replied to MasterChief096's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - GENERAL
Thanks. -
I've been reading about patches here on the forums for Arma 2 but does Steam automatically patch your game? I've browsed the update history of ARMA 2 via the steam interface but there is nothing besides the, "Arma 2 goes live" thing or w/e it is announcing that you can buy the game. Do I have to manually download the patches and then install them? Thanks in advance.

Yeah I'd rather not know where the country is on the map but rather a relative location. That way it can have as much land, as many people, and as big a military as BIS says it has. I'm glad the in-game map isn't the entire country, I can't remember where I read it but the countries population is in the millions and I just don't see how its possible after being in every town/city and seeing the sizes. Chernagorsk is a really tiny capitol city.

Why do people prefer Warfare over Superpowers or Civil War?
MasterChief096 posted a topic in ARMA 2 & OA - MULTIPLAYER
I love both Superpowers and Civil War and yet I can't find a server w/ more than 2 people playing them. Everyone seems to be playing Warfare... what makes it more desirable? My experience on the Warfare was that the interface was way worse and my AI didn't follow me, instead my guy commanded my AI to follow one of the AI in my squad... who never moved. None of my orders worked and units that the Ai commander ordered before I controlled hte slot I couldn't disband nor command to any degree. What feature makes warfare preferable? I'm not trying to rant here but I want to know why everyone is playing warfare, maybe I can be convinced to like it too. -
No place to hide. Not so realistic after all...
MasterChief096 replied to W1NDOWL1CKER's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - MULTIPLAYER
15 years from now the standard PC will be able to render that grass as far as you can see in the game, then you will be able to do that... but for now pick something bigger to hide behind. I usually find a thicket of trees or w/e and go prone next to a trunk, and i appear as just part of the crap spread out all over the place... :D -

MasterChief096 replied to MasterChief096's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - MULTIPLAYER
Ah thanks for the replies people. I prefer Superpowers/Civil War game modes. I like the interface better and I like the fact that you can take strongholds... its not about being able to respawn at city its that it adds more strategy to taking the city... ie. being able to capture it quicker if you have all the strongholds rather than none or just 1. Very few people play these servers though, its disappointing. I just can't stand the WARFARE interface... it irritates me. -
How do you change AI Skill Level?
MasterChief096 replied to MasterChief096's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - GENERAL
I searched AI, AI Skill, AI Skill level, and either got no results, or results that were non-related to what my question was. I'm not a newcomer to forums, I did try the search feature first. -

Where can I find this profile? New player... bare with me. -
I'm the commander of a civil war scenario my friend and i are playing. How do I select cities on the map to switch the percentages between defense and logistics? The manual says simple use the LMB on the city icon on the map, but LMB does nothing at all.
