Ah yes thanks I see what you mean. After you adjust it the volume change only occurs from the next track on. Only thing is is that it also adjusts the game volume, shame it's not seperated from that and works independantly. Oh well, still great to have radio chatter in air and armour though :) I have another newbie question if I may.... I only want the radio chatter addon so I'm only using the minimum amount of files that seem to be enough to get it to work. The radio chatter .pbo, the system .pbo and the userconfig .sqf files. I presume even without the remaining .pbo files that there'll still be some parts of this mod still active? If so then how do I turn everything else off? I notice that there's a core.sqf file with values in for AI and a couple of other things. If I set these to false will that do it? Thanks.

Re: the radio chatter... For me the volume adjust keys (INS & HOME) don't work. In the top right of my screen I can see the chatter volume bars moving up and down as I press the keys but it doesn't make any difference to the volume I can hear. I tried setting the default value from 0.3 to 1 in the userconfig\GL4\GL4_Radio_Chatter.sqf but that didn't work either. Am I doing something wrong? :confused:

Already saw ur post in my earlier search, tried it without any luck. NM I'll do it without the UAV. Looks like another community fix coming on.

I'm just starting off this mission and my question is 'how do you use the UAV hellfires?'. I've done the UAV tutorial in the hope that all would be revealed but that's just about giving it waypoints, using the camera etc. Nothing on it's weapons system. I've searched but found nothing definitive. The laser des doesn't seem to do anything, TAB doesn't do anything, can't seem to lock on anything. I can fire the AGM's but don't have a clue where they're actually going. Camera sways this way and that and makes you feel sick eventually. I must be doing something wrong?.... :confused:

Hi M1n1dou. Tried it and it seems to work for me too. Thnx mate :)

I'll give it a go thanks mate. I'll let ya know if it works or not ;)

Since using ACRE whenever I join our game server my microphone stops working in in TS3. It sometimes happens straight away or if I'm lucky I get several minutes of talk time before it happens. Once that happens I also can't send a text message through TS3 either. Came up with a permission error (I think from memory). Before I delve deeper, searching and reading etc... I'm hoping someone else has had this problem and knows how to fix it. I've got the lastest versions of TS3 and ACRE. OS is Windows XP 32. No one else in my clan is having this problem and it's stopping me from playing. Cheers.

Thanks Deadfast. That worked a treat on getting the infantry triggers to only trip when ground units went into them and nothing airbourne. And as for the last trigger that the ground units wouldn't encounter anyway, I just grouped that one to the specific unit (a helicopter) that had to trigger it. So now the plane can fly through all the triggers and it doesn't set off any of them. Sorted :D

Here's a kind of similar question. I have a blufor plane flying through a trigger that I don't want to trip it. But I have blufor units on the ground that I do want to trip it. Is there a way to get the trigger to ignore the plane?

*bump* Still nothing?

Thanks Manzilla. Yes hopefully they'll give me the option in the next update. Sux to be unorthodox but just can't get used the k/b the normal way :bigglasses:

I've got a slight problem. In the latest version of ACE2 there's now an "interact with self" option bound to the right application key (inbetween right windows and right CTRL). I play off the numpad side of the keyboard and have re-bound quite a few ACE2 keys in the userconfig key file, no probs. Only thing is this new option isn't listed in there so therefore I don't have the option to re-bind it to another key. I use the right application key for sprinting and so atm it's unusable to me. Can anyone please help? Is there a way I can have my right application key back? Thank You.

Any new news on this mod?

That's great news Norrin :D I can only speak for myself when I say that my internet isn't the best quality. I'd be interested to know what the net quality is like for the other ppl who suffered from "the ghost who walks" problem. I haven't tried it out yet myself but it definately sounds like it's fixed. So I'd better get back to ZSU and apply to re-join :756:

Thank you Norrin! I'll speak to Preach about implementing it on the servers. Can I ask what the problem actually was? I'd love to know why I was getting the ghosting problem but no one else was? What makes me so "special"?

The 1.05 "ghosting" problem isn't new to me. I've experienced it since I started playing Arma 2 (with patch 1.04). I ended up leaving my clan because of it as they always played missions with the revive script and I got tired of having to quit the missions after the 1st death. I'm hoping Norrin finds a fix for it so I can re-join the clan and start playing missions again.

DodgeCity yes I have exactly the same problem. It's only on our [ZSU] clan servers running the revive script and when it occurs my clan mates don't get an option to revive me, only hide my body. I look up at the sky, then when I respawn I'm a ghost. They can't see me or hear me and the AI don't react to me either. But to me I'm still in the game and can see/hear everything what's going on. Totally bizarre. I spent hours and hours googling for an answer or someone else who had the same problem but got nothing. You're the 1st one I've come accross. I can tell you that I tried so much troubleshooting I almost just gave up on Arma as I was so fed up at the end and still had no definate answer. What I could surmize from trialing many different things is that it seems like it come's down to some sort of a network issue. It has been better of late ever since I installed the 1.04 patch and plugged my old router back in. The thing is is that I did them both at the same time so I don't know whether the improvement is to do with the router, the patch or maybe even a combination of the two. And since it's been better (not perfect but better) I've been too scared to mess with it in case I break it again lol. Can I ask you a couple of questions.... 1) What type of modem do you use? 2) Do you experience it on all servers running the revive script? or just a particular one (or group)? 3) How would you describe the quality of ur internet? Maybe by comparing information we might discover a similarity that points us in the right direction of the problem?

This is one for the books.... After I have my 1st death and then respawn on our (clan) A2 server I turn into a ghost. Meaning that from my POV I'm still there and can see & hear everyone and yet to everyone else I'm not there. They can't see or hear me, I can't take anything from ammo crates, my bullets do nothing and enemy AI totally ignore me. Medics don't get the option to revive me. It doesn't happen all of the time, but does most of the time. I've only been playing A2 for a couple of months now and this problem has existed from the start. The server is running revive script 1.2, but if that was the problem you'd think everyone would get it. Or at leat one other. But it's only me. My ping is ok, no de-sync. I'm not running any additional addons besides the few that all the clan members run on the server. I have latest vid & SC drivers. Here's what I/we have tried to troubleshoot so far..... Re-installed A2. legit CD. Created new profile with different name. Tried joining 1st and JIP. Formatted computer twice now and installed different OS's (from Vista 64bit to W7 64bit and now XP 32bit). All legit copies. Used different A2 CD. legit CD. Used different CD key. legit key. Have patched straight to 1.03. Have patched to 1.02 then to 1.03. Disabled SLI. Disabled antivirus & Windows firewall. Have tried 2 different routers (although very similar one's). Upgraded to latest router firmware. Have disconnected my router numerous times. Googled for hours but no reports of same problem. It's not my machine as I've had it working fine at a friends house. Disabled my ISP firewall. I'm fast running out of options to try. It's maybe the most bizzare A2 problem yet. Can anyone here shed any light on the problem? Any help or additional suggestions would be much appreciated.

It's none of the addons as I get the same problem without them too. And what I mean by it's not my machine is that I took it over to a friend's house and didn't get the problem while over there. But got it again at home. So therefore the problem isn't my machine, or A2 install etc. And I think ur very close to the problem there Sniperdoc. My internet isn't great and speeds do vary sometimes. But all I usually get while playing any game is what you would expect. Ping fluctuates a bit and sometimes I swear that I "shot that guy" but he's fine. Most of the time it's ok though. It's only Arma2 that goes weird on me and it only seems our server too. Also I've not had any problems at all on Arma2 servers with normal death/respawn. But we run the 1.2 revive script and it's looking more and more like it may be related to that, even though it's only affecting me. I'm always fine before I experience my 1st death, but once I do that's when the revive script kicks in that's when I ghost out. It doesn't happen all the time though, but maybe that's at time's when my net is running smoother than usual? Maybe the script only like's you if your internet is up to a certain quality? I'll see if I can get them to run our test server with the same parameters as our co-op one but without the revive script. That should prove if it's related to the script or not.

So I'm not the only one who's had this happen. Thing is is that you had it once. I keep getting it. Do you happen to know what version revive script was on the server when this happened to you? Or which server this was on? so I can try it on there as well.

A question to the flyers.... I'm brand new to A2 and to flying in a game and I'm just doing bootcamp atm. I've done the VTOL bootcamp mission 5 times now and everytime I fail on the air to air combat. I change to the air-air missiles, I mark the target, I then get behind it and get a lock on (nice bold circle in the square), shoot and everytime the missiles either completely miss or I may just nick the SU34 and see a little smoke coming out of it. I've tried doing this from anywhere between approx 800-400m away and even wait until it's not in such a steep turn but alas.... I FAIL! Can one of you 1337 fly jockeys maybe tell me what I'm doing wrong or even tell me how to do it right as it's sorta embarrassing :o Signed Flynub

Already flying like that wooly, funny thing is is that I've unbound the pedals as well and it still does it. Weird. Yer since I tried unbinding the pedals and it still does it, it may be more of a game bug than a joystick input problem. What joystick are you using? The X52 or a different one? I see someone else with an X52 has the same problem. I may buy another joystick anyway as the X52 takes up too much room and the stick is all light and sloppy.

Since this is my 1st post here I thought I'd better introduce myself and say hi to all the resident ppl in here :D I'm a total newb at A2 and I've never even touched Arma or OPF like many of you guys have. Basically I've played games like CoD4 & 5 and the closest I've come to anything like A2 is BF2 which I'm sure some of you hardcore Arma guys have a bit of a chuckle at :rolleyes: But I've basically had enough of "bunny hopping war in a coke bottle" type games and want to enjoy something more "grown up" and with much more depth. So a few days ago after seeing a review on A2 I went and got it and now here I am. I already have a couple of questions for you guys if you wouldn't mind... I've been given a Saitek X52 joystick and have set it all up this arvo. It all works except for a couple of things. Firstly flying with this joystick is pretty damn hard as the movements of the aircraft just aren't tight and controlled when I pitch & roll. They're all kind of a bit sloppy and feel a bit 'drunk' if you know what I mean. So what I was wondering is is this what it's like to fly in A2? or is it the joystick input that isn't so crash hot? And my other question is is that the rudder sometimes constantly see-saws a bit from left to right which can make trying to stay on a target pretty near impossible as you can imagine. I'm presuming this is a joystick fault but I haven't been able to fix it in the joystick controller settings. Does anyone know how to possibly fix it? Soz to start off with a couple of questions guys but any answers would sure be appreciated. ;)
