Thanks guys! Worked a treat. Brilliant. Have a nice day/night ya'll.

Hi there all. Sorry if it's a repost, I had a good rummage for something to do with this and I couldn't find anything. Myself and a friend want to play co-op together. However, I got to Multiplayer>New>CreateGame (on internet) and am now given the option to choose the mission. I click play on the mission I want, and Disable the AI (as I just want to play with my friend). However, my problem occurs when I try to find an IP to send to my friend so he can join my server. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I'm missing/doing wrong? I had a look in the Server Control bit, but that doesn't help :( I just presumed I be able to send an IP to my friend to join, and then jump into the mission. Thanks for your time, WimpoD

It worked! Thankyou so much! Off to fight the Vietcong now. Awesome awesome mod.

Please help :( I'm a bit of a noob, and I was wondering if someone could help me as I'm desperate to play. Once I get my guys in the chopper, i go through the radio menu to the chopper (0-0-1) and the menu disappears. I reopen it to the same place and theres more options. I select one of the options in the submenu (not sure which, Fly to HOLD or Fly to LAND), and then they ask for coordinates. But I don't know what to do. I've tried opening my map and selecting something for it but it just doesn't budge. Pressing left click on the mouse creates a marker, and pressing space isn't helping. I say 'Move there' and nothing happens :S Just trying to get the chopper to fly to a location to land and fight the enemy :) Any ideas? Thanks for your time

Oh man I want this mod so bad, but it's just too confusing to install. I really have tried. I think I just need someone to come over to my house and install it lol. It's a bit of a muddle. I could just do with the 'Install .pbo to Addons folder', but I believe I have to use this Six Updater thing to update it? Can I just install the following: @CBA @CBA_OA @ACE @ACEX @ACEX_RU @ACEX_USNavy @ACEX_SM from the website, and extract them in my Addons folder to get it to work? Could I then edit the shortcut to run it? Has anyone any advice? Thanks for reading. *EDIT* I have ArmA2 installed from the disc, and Operation Arrowhead on Steam. I don't think they're combined so do I have to install it twice in each folder? :S

Ok guys, thanks anyways. And dale0404, I thoroughly look forward to playing it.

Hi Guys. I've read a few rules and wasn't sure where to post this, so if it's in the wrong section would a mod be kind enough to move/remove it? Anyway, onto the subject! My new PC comes TOMORROW. Great. But irrelevant to you guys. Basically, I really want to get downloading these custom missions that so many of you play, but there's so many to choose from, with so many different thread titles, and sections on armaholic, I don't know where to start and I'm just not sure how to seperate the best from the rest. I was wondering if any of you guys could suggest some top SP and MP scenarios, missions and mods that you would personally recommend? Thanks for your time people, these forums help make ArmA2 the most community friendly game ever. WimpoD

Hello all! I've just ordered a brand new PC at a reasonable price, and I just wanted your guys opinions on how well you think it will run ArmA2 + OA. I LOVE the game, but my last PC just couldn't run it. Never mind the busy towns, it struggled to perform even when I was running through the desert! My new PC is an 'Intel i5 760' overclocked to 4.2Ghz. It has XMS3 4GB DDR3 (ram), and a Geforce GTX 470. I completely know that I won't be able to full-spec it, but will it play decent enough to really appreciate the graphics in this game? I'm dead excited, cannot wait to get more involved in ArmA2 and the only thing stopping me has been my PC. Have a nice day!

Nice teaser Litos! Loved it.

I gotta say Richie, out of all your fantastic videos, for some reason this is my favourite. I watched it small screen, with very little sound as I'm in work, and my god it was like watching real footage. Very well made! Cannot wait to get my new rig so I can start doing this stuff, love machinima but haven't been able to anything in ArmA2 as my PC cries when I attempt to play it. Do you turn off HUD elements when making your video? The camera bobble is so realistic, so I presume you're just turning off the HUD then recording with some sort of external hardware?

Hey guys, what's a good sound mod that would work with OA?

Oh my god! How embarrassing. Thankyou, problem solved!!

Hi all. Hope you're having a nice day! My question is simple, but I'm not sure if the solution will be (or if a solution even exists for that matter!) I am running ArmA2:OA in windowed mode during my lunchbreaks at work, using Steam to launch and play it. I was wondering if anyone knows how I would increase the size of the windowed mode ever so slightly? Or, is having ArmA2 in windowed mode just going to be one setting? More importantly, am I making any sense?! Thanks for your time. WimpoD

Here's my impression of ArmA2:OA: "Hi. I'm ArmA2:OA. Turns out, I'm the best game ever made." Thanks. Bye.

Hah! If those 3 issues have upset you, god knows what you've got to look forward to. I must just be blind to ArmA 2's bugs now, such is my overwhelming love for it. Deal with the bugs, it's the most ambitious war game ever made.
