I don't have any 'power monitor' on my PSU. When i shut my pc down the PSU fan stops, i guess it's off then :)

I'm happy with XP it does all i need, and when i don't use my computer i simply shut it down and then it doesn't consume power :p

I will not recommend running ArmA 2 on such system! Turn off 'Post Process effects' under advanced video settings, that should remove the blurryness :)

So i decided to make a video of some ArmA 2 gameplay. I use Fraps for recording. I tried a few video conversion/compression(Windows Movie Maker, WinAvi) tools but the results are horrible :eek: I've seen some really nice videos on these forums and would like to get similar results :) Which tools do you use before uploading to youtube or similar place?

To sum my experience with this video stuff up: The programs i tried to record ingame footage with: Recording: Fraps - Very easy to use and gives a decent result Xfire - Never got it working, wouldn't detects ArmA 2. Tried all said in the xfire thread without getting it working. WeGame - My ingame control got locked when using this and the very first time starting it i got a BSOD. ZD Soft Screen Recorder - The results was horrible :eek: Compressing: Windows Movie Maker - Very easy to use and with the plugins recommended by [DirTyDeeDs]-Ziggy- -> http://www.bauer-power.net/2009/04/create-hd-videos-in-windows-movie-maker.html the results are very nice. VirtualDub - I tried it a bit but wasn't too impressed with the result aimed for youtube, probably me not knowing what i was doing. For people knowing a thing or two about video/audio this is probably very nice :) Easy h.264 - Indeed very easy to use, but again i was more happy with the result from Windows Movie Maker. This program also crashed whenever i tried to compress videos with any setting over medium. So in the end i found Fraps and Windows Movie Maker +HD plugins the best solution for me and my simple need to record and preparing videos for youtube.

I would say you should be able to run it decently.

1). The blue is the editable version the green is the saved/exported .pbo version. 2). You could open up you old mission and select everything dragging a box around of it and then copy(ctrl + c) and then open up new blank mp misison and paste the objects(ctrl + v). This should work!

I dunno if the problem is accessing the 2d editor from the Single player menu, never started editor from there. Here's a mission, completely emty just two 3-man squads for testing. http://rapidshare.com/files/295975908/mptest.Chernarus.pbo.html It's created with editor started from multiplayer create game menu.

Make a new mission with only 2 squads nothing else. Set all units in both squads to 'playable' now see if your mate can control his squad now.

Try remove code from the squad units init field, it looks very messy. Example: this setBehaviour "SLEATH" ?? So try remove all that init code and see if your mate gets control over his squad.

Zipper5 was burned by ConsoleMasters, he trust nobody these days :p

Same here, there's some neat sounds in VopSound but overall SOWmod is better and still being worked on, right?

What happens if you host and you both are in same squad but with him as leader? Will the AI then follow him? If all fails try upload your mission and let us take a look at it.

Just took a hit then 15 secs later All relax :D <object width="853" height="505"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEBkel2yaR8&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEBkel2yaR8&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="853" height="505"></embed></object>

Funny enough it seems most people want just that, go check the server list ;) Join a veteran server, you can also turn crosshair off your own end... :eek: wtf For god sake stop joining Domination servers *sigh* Again, stop joining servers running Evo/Dom. This is completely up to the hosters to decide. Personally i've hosted many games with only 1 live, guess what many people start crying restart after waiting 10-15min, when that does not happen they leave. Yet again... stay away from Evo/Dom servers :eek:

Missing out on what?

Are you using latest graphic drivers and directx?

If Video memory on default doesn't work then try normal, then high and very high. Personally i get CTD's on default!

Good for you, but it's gonna be hard not hearing from people who enjoy ArmA 2 here on these forums :p

1. Aim lower 2. Dunno, never played the campaign. Making your own missions with the editor you can make your own rules ;) 3. There's tons of info in the editor forum, lots of info here http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Getting_Started 4. Dunno how it works in the campaign, but again with the editor you can add all the weapons you like. 5. The VopSound and Sound of War mod is very nice recommendable.

Maybe turn off or lower post process effects??

Are you sure you are talking about Dragon Rising? Because details is exactly what that shooter lacks!

I don't have that option, are you reffering to Fraps?

Try this: Place a gamelogic and name it flaretrap1. Call above script from a trigger or something.

Whats wrong with the links here: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=86530 Works fine for me!
