Da Bomb

Note: you must follow this walkthrough EXACTLY if you want to complete all the objectives. I hope this helps. I'm sorry if it's too complicated, and if you encounter any bugs/snags this may not work!

Not sure if this is the right section, but this seems like a serious bug to me. I am in the mission Dogs of War, and it has been bug free for me up until now. I need to buy some T-72s to help attack a city. However, when I buy a T-72 (this is with the crew already bought with the vehicle) I get a message from on of the crew members that the commander is wounded. I thought this was just a minor error, and I ordered the commander to exit so my medic could heal him. However, when the next tank spawned I got a message that the commander was dead. The next tanks that spawned had dead or wounded commanders in them. I had this bug earlier when I was playing Badlands, but it wasn't that big of a problem then. But now, I need commanders for my tanks! There are no enemies remotely close to my position, and the tanks are not being damaged in any way after spawning. The commander is just wounded is dead when the tank spawns. Does anyone else have this bug? Does anyone know how I can fix it? I have already thought of buying a new crew member and telling him to enter, and that seems to work, but it seems stupid that I have to have my commanders die and then replace them.

Are you inside the HQ vehicle? This happened to me when I was inside it as well. If you are, just exit the vehicle and try constructing it. If not, I don't know how to fix it.

Bump, I've followed these two tutorials without luck: http://www.tacticalgamer.com/armed-assault-mod-mission-development/155357-how-add-custom-sounds-your-game-missions.html

I have seen a few youtube tutorials on how to use trigger and waypoint effects where people have had a custom song. How can I add these into my game?

How can I make a certain squad unload from a helicopter, but keep another unit inside of the chopper?

I have the problem where it says bad serial number given on setup for ArmA2. I've tried all the solutions listed here: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=4950-EKAM-2644 to no avail. The problem could be that I have the game installed on annother computer.

I have done this with other games though. Maybe ArmA2 only lets one cdkey per comp.

I just did that. Thats what I meant by re-install.

Fresh install did not help.

No, thats impossible as I am using Steam.

... Did you read the thread?

I don't remember the name of the town, but Dressler mentions Lopotev's hometown when you talk to him. Zoom in a bit on the town and look just to the left. You should see the quarry.

Yeah sorry. You need to move really quickly without any hinderance at all. Otherwise, you'll most likely run into Bardak. The game actually tries to help you find him.

Well, the easiest way to do it is to turn down the terrain graphics level. The tags should be next to a guy in a ski mask (There will always be at least 1 guy in a ski mask but there may be more). If that doesn't work, reload and try again.

You may have played it 20 times over (A lie) but even so, many othes have claimed that he shows up in different places.

I don't really understand what you're asking. Why would you want to go back to a save in an earlier mission? If you didn't make a save in Razor 2 then you'll just have to restart it.

It's no good. Bardak doesn't always go to the Vyshnoye castle first.

Yup. This is to be expected. As I stated before, he turns up at the three evidence spots, so if you go out of order (Like you said you did) then he may turn up early.

Yeah, I'm afraid you'll jut have to look around for him. An easy way of doing this is selecting one of your units, pressing 6, then looking for "Search body". You man should run over to the Insurgent Leader's body. I got super epicly lucky when I found him. He was the only guy rolling around on the ground, moaning in pain. I killed him slowly, shooting him in the legs and letting him bleed out.

Someone else had the same problem... Did you go to the briefing with Cpt. Shaftoe?

Follow this walkthrough EXACTLY: 1. Travel via helicopter to the base and talk to Dressler. Then talk to Marny(Actually you might only need to talk to Dressler because I forgot which one is the guy who marks your map for you). 2. Go to the quarry west of Lopotev's hometown. Kill the three Chedaki there and take the dog tags. To find the dog tags (The bag is impossible to find in the grass) simply select one of your units, press 6, and select "Take dog tags". Your man should run up to the dead guy who dropped the tags. Look around his body until you find them. If this isn't working for you, you can just turn down the detail in the option menu and the bag sticks out like a sore thumb. 2. Travel to to the northern most X on your map (It should have been marked by Dressler or Marny, I can't remember). After you wipe out the guys at the camp, go inside the tent and take the photos. 3. Go to Vyshnoye. A little to the south is a castle. Inside it is an abandoned Chedaki camp. On a table next to a tent there is a mapcase. Take it. 4. Fly over to Gorka. There is a road heading south from the center of the town. Travel down it for a little while, but make sure not to get too far from the town. Now wait off to the side of the road. About this time you'll get a message that Lopotev is trying to escape and you have 20 minutes to catch him. Just wait (I use fast forward because depending on how fast you moved you may be waiting for a while) and you'll see a red car comming up the road. Inside is Bardak (One of his minions might be in the car with him. For me it was just Bardak but be prepared for anything!). Shoot out the tires and if there is a guy with Bardak then kill him too but don't shoot Bardak. If he runs, just chase after him for a little while (He won't get far) and you'll eventually get a cutscene where you arrest him. Now you're probably wondering where the 4th piece of evidence went. Well, Bardak IS the 4th piece of evidence, so as long as you collect the other three pieces before catching Bardak, you should get full credit. Also note, Lopotev is not catchable. Don't bother looking for him because he's not in the level. Another thing, Bardak can also be found at any of the three places where you obtain evidence or traveling to any one of them. If you want to complete the objective, you need to get all three before you capture him because once you do, the mission ends. Because of this, you must move as quickly as possible or you might run into him. I hope this helps. I'm sorry if it's too complicated, and if you encounter any bugs/snags this may not work!

I have finally destroyed the Chedaki Base, but the insurgent leader is nowhere to be found. I selected one of my guys, press 6, but there was no search body option. Where could he be?

Most of the time the arty bugs out and it isn't usable.
