    That's oh so true.... if we put it all in one thread, it will be a pain to find any info hidden in 50 pages........As said before it was like that already when the beta process started.

    I find it much better the way its done now....and for our beloved devs it must be already difficult enough to filter important info from less important info in the small threads now....

    Keep those betas coming BIS :-)

    yep, i can confirm the wrong messages with the latest beta.

    I chose "injured" and got to hear "out of fuel".

    I guess its just like the IR strobe problem: Fixed in final build.

    I just want to make sure this is known:

    I am using a launcher: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=89731

    In this i can choose what mods to load and in what order.

    With Arrowhead came some new things to the mod list, such as "expansion" and "expansion beta".

    now i didn't pay attention to this, but i have been starting Arma2 CO with the "expansion" and "expansion beta" selected.

    This gave me the errors discribed above and some others..... after deselecting "expension" and just starting Arma 2 CO with the mods and "expansion beta" solved the problem.

    If you download the Launcher and try you will know what i mean.

    Reason i post this is because its not a BIS error, its a user error :-)

    thanx for reading .

    After some play testing ( combined ops) i must say.

    At first i couldn't hit a thing, and i was like... yea....... damn that.

    But after some practice ( sick1 Operation Delta camp ) i have to say. This is fantastic.

    I just hope the same "inconvenience" goes for AI soldiers.

    The feeling of firing a gun is greatly enhanced and i find a little practice and the setting works nicely.

    thanx BIS for those updates.

    @Andersson[sWEC] Some things are being tried with these betas, meaning before a full and final new patch is made, the changes are being tested by the community (thats you by the way).

    Problems can be sorted and "new bugs" squashed for the final build. Thats the whole purpose of letting you (yea the community) take part in testing.

    I find thats a great thing and i dont mind "new bugs" i just want to help iron them out and make ArmA 2 OA the master peace it deserves to be :-)

    Thank you BIS keep it on.

    Hello all.

    For nvidia users there is a secret weapon :-)

    Have you heard of nHancer?

    it opens up functionality which is otherwise hidden.

    It uses less resources for a better picture.

    I use 4xS AA (combined multi- and super sampling mode) and 100% filter rate in the resolution 1680 x 1050.

    Please, try it and tell me what you think , and works best for you.

    greetings

    Honestly, i don't know why your guys are having problems.

    Installing the patch went fine, 1.05-1.07 and everything works as advertised on my end.

    exthreads=7 and cpucount=4 should be default, i have them in the command line anyways.

    Game is running smooth. getting the expansion later today (or so i hope) then i will report back.

    lets go to war gentlemen:-)

    Hallo

    I have downloaded all required addons, placed the needed ones in Baghdad_v1.1 ( the IED obj, African Foliage and the parts from Afgahni Village .pbo )

    and it works fine.

    cant reproduce your error. sorry. try updating ACE, and re downloading the missions needed Addons. Should work.

    Thanx for this great mission keep up the great work

    added spoiler tags

    There seems to be a problem with the satchel charges on the mission....

    where you have to find that crashed drone.

    I have satchel charges with me, and have completed the objective to locate the drone.

    I start the up-link, wait untill its completed...... but when when placing the charge, the game crashes.

    anyone else with this issue?

    i am using mods ( ace, gl4, fire and smoke), ... and some others. however none of them should interfere with satchel charges.

    in other missions with the same mod config i can use the charges without problems....

    Thanx for any help, or an update :-)

    Thanx sick1, looks great so far :-)

    but.........

    Yes indeed, the drag option is there in the regular action menu (default: mouswheel up/down).

    But when i get to the heli with the poor guy, i cant load him in.

    i dont have an option to load him inside the heli. i can stop dragging, carry, or with the ace action menu (default: left windows key) i get the option to use the rope, but that dosent wont either....

    Edit

    using latest ACE release via six updater, not 1.1 stable.

    maybe that is the problem?

    Hello.

    well after reading the thread i come to one conclusion:

    Everybody on here is right in some part. One thing hasent been talked about....

    In case you haven't noticed:

    ITS BETA!

    you guys (should i say whiners?) do know what BETA means right?

    To explain. it means the product is NOT finished, and is still being worked on full force, meaning features can be added or removed, GUIs changed, functionality enhanced or reduced.

    That said, you are all free to skip the beta phase of six-updater and ACE.

    ACE will come in final version, maybe even in the simple old download method by rar.

    Nobody is forcing you to beta test and help or "hassle with the install method".

    Six-updater will get a sleek user interface making it a breeze to use.

    Just right now? everything is being tested and YOU are the testers.

    Please stop complaining.

    Instead, help find bugs, and post your findings on devheaven (Bugtracker).

    The more we do so, the better the final product will be:-)

    Using this thread to post ideas, and problems is a good idea, just please stop whining!

    (remember ITS BETA:-)

    spelling

    Hi all.

    After fooling around in the .sqf a little, i think i have found the perfect setting to not break missions.

    The advancing feature is great, but 600m to hear a gun shot is just to much.

    Lowering this to 350m seems to do the trick.

    In combo with some other tweaks like.

    Reinforcement courage 0.4-0.5

    Reinforcement distance 50-100

    Advancement ( hear gunshots ) max distance 350 ( isn't this more realistic? )

    Like this , GL4 shouldn't break missions, but still gives you all the features.

    How about some other configs and things you've found out to work well for ya, post the settings:-) I am not home so i will post my exact settings tonite.

    @SNKMAN, thanx for those great updates!

    First off, great Campaign Sick1!

    I have come across some troubles though:

    When Hosting the campaign, and playing coop with a friend, we cant take the ruck or a different weapon at the beginning, if we do, only player 1 is in the helicopter on the first mission, player 2 stays in map screen and cant join.

    The medic , dose not have morphine, or not enough.

    In the ammo crates there is NO medical supply.

    Are these changeable issues, or have i simply missed something?

    thanx for any answers.

    by the way, Playing with GL4 and JTD fire and smoke.

    absolutely fantastic:-)
