Damn dude. I made one small typo and it's screwed you up! I'm really sorry. I meant to say "GL4".

Any more answers to my initial questions?

What kind of firepower would it take to mod the stuff I like in? Is modding straight forward, or does it require 3DSMax to change values and stuff in the engine?

Will FADE affect it if I don't play with the DVD in?

Yeah, so, I know it seems like I'm sitting here bashing this game, but I really like it. I really wanna speed up these bullets though. It's ridiculous.

Is there anything I can do about the bullet speed? It's extremely slow.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is Vanilla and where do I get it?

Thanks for the quick reply. And yes, I'm aiming. Click then hold the right mouse button. I shoot and it's rare that it connects. I've disabled GL4 and SLX. And yes, splatter. You know, in most games, you shoot a guy, and it goes all over the wall behind them? Yeah, that.

I really like this game, but I have a boatload of questions that I've been dying to ask, mainly, issues. 1. I've installed GLX4, ACE2, SLX, and WarFX Particles. I get HUGE plumes of smoke whilst firing into the ground, and can anybody tell me the culprit? 2. The dying animations are a travesty. Can anybody tell me the origins of the dying animations based on the four mods above? Same goes for blood animations. 3. I know you guys are gonna jump down my throat regarding FADE, so I might as well tell you that I have a legit, store-bought copy of ARMAII, purchased a month or so ago from a legitimate chain. However, my accuracy is a goddamn sacrilege. I cannot hit a guy from ten or fifteen feet without expending ten or fifteen rounds. 4. The guys don't die fast enough, and don't respond to bullet hits in due time. I mean, I shoot a guy, and two seconds later, he dies. I also usually put a couple in the chest and they just fall down then get back up. 5. How do I get rid of that goofy smoke that shoots out like a ghost from the end of the barrel? That's NOT how real gun smoke is. Same goes for the horrendous muzzle flashes? 6. Reload animation - Garbage. 7. Gun animations - What the hell? The pistols almost never blow back, and there is a lot of ironing that needs to be done. 8. How do these goofy soldiers hold their guns? The hand is not even touching the barrel, and the wrist is turned at such an angle that makes it look like he's trying to show the guy to the right of him his left palm. 9. I'll mention my accuracy again. 10. Why when I shoot the ground in front of me, I get shot? Bullets will not ricochet off of the ground if they're going faster than a paintball. 11. Why is the blood spatter ridiculous. It goes nowhere except in a smokey-looking red plume outwords at MW2 FPSs. It's not difficult. 12. How do I rid myself of the dialogue? 13. How do I change my fire mode? 14. Is there any way to make the bullets go faster? I mean, they go like 600fps; that's akin to a fast pellet gun. I know, I know. It sounds like I'm just sitting here ragging on the game. The game is fantastic. However, growing up with a military father, I'm a sucker for realism. ArmA II is almost there. If there are any mods that can satisfy or any values I can edit to rectify ANY of the problems above, please, please, help me. I'm frustrated because I cannot complete the first mission because of the accuracy and animation problems. I'd greatly appreciate any help. Regards.

I concur with you guys. I'm having a lot of trouble, too. I'm running an E8400, stock, because I bought a shit Intel board which doesn't support overclocking. I'm running four gigabytes of RAM. The real kicker is that I have the superclocked GTX285 (1GB, not 2GB) and I'm still running it mediocre at best. Is it possible that because I have dual monitors, the chip won't direct all its resources to my ArmA II monitor? Also, what about defrag/etc. that would speed up the fetching of resources from the HDD?

I've done a fair amount of research, and I'm rather new here, but I've still yet to find something that makes a halfway decent muzzle flash! Anybody point me in the right direction?
