I just use different shortcuts on my desktop. One for vanilla Arma 2 One for VopSound mod only One with everything, etc. Silly me. I did not read you thing properly where you said that without the @Panthera you still have the issue. If you remove the mod you can connect ? That would be weird because it shouldnt be loaded. Unless you have put panthera pbos inside a folder that contain all the other mods you are using.

I'm going to repair my joystick today. If i'm sucessfull, i will drop by tonight !

You still cant compare COD5 with Arma by doing that... Even if view-distance is set to 500m, the world still goes on 150 km around you.

Downloading now. And how do you get those nice volumetric clouds !

Any news on the updated version ? :bounce3: :bounce3: :bounce3:

I dont know about you, but the second video quality is terrible. Something messed up with youtube or it's something else ?

Yeah... All those roads clogged with bus... Can't get anywhere with the traffic jams !

Get yourself a mountain bike. No slowdowns uphill. and a top speed of 55 km/h. Yes, all those marines, they did "Le tour de France" for sure.

The script never put the ammo to backback. It would need to be modified to do that. I'm leaving on vacation and can't really take a look at it right now but it should be easy to do. Look into the backpack code and repeat the procedure done for the gun.

Just curious. Everyone says get on teamspeak, blablabla. Then you get on teamspeak and you just ear everyone talking at the same time. Everything is included in the ingame voice chat, global, vechicle, side, etc. What did I missed about TeamSpeak that is so important ?

My main problem with Teamspeak or ventrillo is not the fact that people dont take turn. If you have 15 guys, 3 of which are in the air, and the rest separated on the ground in different squads, soon, everyone needs to talk, even if they take turns. Then you switch channels and you are screwed because you need to switch between 3 or 4 channels to talk to everyone. I haven't experienced server crashes due to the in game voice and it works flawlessly on my 2 man server :rolleyes: . I guess some issues appear when more people try to use it ?

I never experienced those crashes so far. I'm not playing that often however. Like "No Use For A Name" said, my main issue with Teamspeak is the continuous chatter that is really annoying. I see a lot of people ending in different channels. From what I remember there was a couple of keys you could bind to teamspeak to switch channels, I guess I should try that. Exactly.

Some servers disable it ?

Because of all the guys playing CoD 4 and all the other games where every single sniper takes a shot and *WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFF* all the air of the his lungs after...... Someone missed something somewhere and now lot's of people have that misconception.

If you take the "Radio" slidder up in the audio option in Arma, you will hear them just fine. I dont know about muting the channel however.

Hell you must have flown with me :D That's how I like it. Using every building, hill, tree has cover. I think the best way to get close to the objective is to follow roads in the woods. Usually, you can fly between the trees, very low and you are covered from pretty much all angles.

Sorry, didn't intented to sound like that. It was a rather bad attempt to ridiculise that full screen effect that makes you unable to spot freaking AIs at 10 feet. Never understood why they would want us to play the game like that.

You forgot to put your glasses when you took the Hires screen you ignorant myope.

If you keep the rotor in it's actual state, yes, you are an aircraft. But in RL, you play with blade pitch, etc and etc. If you want to drop like a rock, you can.

The choppers in Arma2 juste "Float" too much. Even with a joystick, if I kill the throttle ( 0% ) it still takes forever to go down if your speed is above 100 Km/h. We just have to deal with it or just hope someone aint going to shoot at you while you are going 50meters up. i seem to be able to lose a lot of speed and not climbing higher than 50 meters if I fly at around 1 meter at 200 Km/h and Kill the throttle Pull up like a mad man Apply full left rudder Complete the 180 and raise the throttle at around 75% That should take less than 100 meters to go from 200 to 0 without going above 50meters.

I dont understand the setPos getPos _me i understand the script allright. But what about patch 1.0.3 ?

O'RLY ?! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lXNCZlQcvGw *edit* Before you says : "BlaBla not combat operations BlaBlaBla"

In multiplayer, if you have a gunner in your cobra, I suggest you study the map around your objective carefully. Find a forest or a tree line with a good layer of trees between you and the objective. Bullets and missiles will hit the tree. I found that the best way to rack up a LOT of kills is to hover just above the tree line. Watch for incoming missiles and tracers. Hover for no more than 10 to 30 secs at the same spot. Change spot often. Dont turn, bank, like a drunk pilot. You gunner cannot use the cannon if you keep moving around. Dont waste hellfires on BTR or Vodniks or soft targets. The cannon will do a good job on those softies. Unless you have absolute air superiority, I dont suggest flying over a town. in fact, I NEVER fly close to a town. Even if there is only infrantry on the ground, on lucky shot can kill you or the gunner.

Doing lot's of transport in the MH-60, I tend to land it in small clearings in the woods or in the middle of the streets. Granted, if you have an open field, you technique works quite well and you get shield by the tree line. With the transport chopper, I come in low and fast ( below 20 meters, and around 215 km/h ). If I dont want to raise my altitude and be ready to land quickly, I start pulling up slowly and cutting the throttle at 2000 meters from the target. This will bring me at 100 Km/h at around 400 meters of the target and at that speed you can easily cut the throttle and right when you start dropping you flare. You will gain less than 2 meters in altitude and drop on the 3 wheels in no time.

Even if you spot them with you binoculars ? weird. Unless my difficulty setting in the editor is not high enough.
