I use the AlpineStars launcher, which has an option of starting TrackIR along with whatever addons you want. Other options as well.

Nice. Very nice.

I played it SP this evening, but I was mostly just checking it out and not trying very hard. Of course, with me it doesn't matter if I try very hard because I'm not very good. That's what happens when an old man tries to do young man stuff. Anyway, this is a cool mission. I knew I would die and I did. Twice, in fact. But I like the mission and the rather unique problems one needs to solve to succeed. I got a message that the enemy commander had been killed. Did that mean that I just needed to get back to the exfil point and get out of Dodge? Not that it mattered, because I died again.

Weird. I tried to play the campaign and my computer just froze. I finally had to kill the process to get control back. Repeated a few times with same result. Then I tried hosting it on my lan with only me playing, and it worked. Then I tried playing it directly, and it worked. Splain that.

I can't wait to get home and load this up. Thanks. Film at eleven.

SP-only for me. So far, at least.

Pardon the question from an absolute newbie. I'm new to ArmA II; really, I'm new to military gaming altogether. An old man who is as green as they come. I've been enjoying the forum and just kind of playing around with the game. What I would love to do is play the game as if I were a general sending commands from HQ. Is that possible? If so, how can I do it? Thanks.
