I have been trying for a long time now to make a high command mission, but i cant make the units do what i tell them. Now this may seem like an editing question, but it is not. The high command menu comes up fine when i press ctrl+space, and i can select the units fine as well. But i cannot under any circumstance tell them to do anything. I click "set waypoint" and nothing happens - no confirmation from the unit, no action just silence and nothing else. At first i thought i was just setting it up wrong so i downloaded a template. it did not work either. So i disabled all my mods to see if a mod was somehow breaking it - still no dice. So with all my mods disabled i did the high command tutorial and it didnt work either. The whole time it has been the same problem, this makes me think my arma 2 OA has a bug. Is there anyone else who has encountered this? if so is there a quicker fix than reinstalling everrryyyythhhiiinngnggg?

mine is on the latest patch, so my problem still stands

How about keeping your mouth shut unless you can help? I read what he wrote and have followed his advice, i was simply saying that i had tried redownloading and that i had no idea. So, therefore, im probably going to file a ticket arent I?

iv tried redownloading from everywhere i can find cba, still getting this error my modline is starts with -mod=@CBA;@etc etc so i ave no idea what in the hell is going wrong

i recently updated my ace files an cba through six updater, and now i get an error on startup: "Inclide file x\cba\addons\main\script_mod.hpp not found" or the same for "script_macros_common" tried rolling back to previous versions and still no dice. is this a problem at my end or a cba problem? any help would be appreciated, cheers

is it possible to 'freeze' and object in place, so that it doesn't bounce around and move out of its position?

nice thanks mate hes just survived a large bomb so the crying isnt really unjustified

thanks guys will try when i get home ---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ---------- on a side note, is there anyway to force the **player** to be prone? ive searched but its all about making AI stay prone.

how do i create tasks without having a briefing at the start of a mission? [edit] scratch that. make it: how do i hide a task and then have it created at a point during a mission. would i put the task in a script and trigger the script in game?

i want to make the player unable to move once he hits a trigger how do i go about doing this?

also, if the unit you want shot AT but not HIT, is the opposite side to the shooters (eg. he is blufor, and they are opfor), to avoid him being chosen as a target you can set him to be captive. see here.

cheers

i dont know about disabling the commander, but you could place and empty m1a1 then put two crewmen near it. then follow: crewman 1's init line: this moveindriver tank (tank being the name of the m1a1) crewman 2's init line: this moveingunner tank you might have to add a loader as well, but this way there is no commander use your doTarget and doFire commands on the gunner and driver i suppose. i am not sure if this is the best way to do it, if anyone else knows one im all ears

if you have ACE then in side:empty there is a class called AE Invisible Targets. It has lots of choices in there: Infantry/heavy armour etc target blufor/opfor/civilian etc

i think there are invisible targets in the side:empty, ive only ever tested them, but they seem to work. hope that helps

i have tried everything and i cannot get units to talk... i have tried everything in this thread more than once but i get nothing. No error, just no radio subtitles. any ideas?

ohh thanks mate thats exactly what i need!

is there a way to rename the player, other than the profile name? eg. in the campaign you are "Ben Herrera" etc.

thanks guys, appreciated ---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 AM ---------- would you happen to know how to trigger an autosave. I have a feeling this is right under my nose but i searched and couldnt find anything.

thanks mate

i need to change the default driver of the crrc boat to a different unit, instead of the US marine, can this be done? how? thanks

i have enough ammo and everything but when i command fire from the ULB i get Acc reading of 0.0 and i red box around my target reticule and nothing else happens

when i am not in a vehicle, my fov is really small which makes the camera zoom in. i can only see from about chest up when in 3rd person, and in first person i can only see the very front of the gun. if i double hit zoom out then it zooms out way too far and the screen looks stretched, so that cannot fix the problem. any ideas?
