    What is BAF light?

    Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll just have a few beers before a BAF mission so I don't notice the textures. Cheers,

    What is BAF light?

    I see it in my expansions (assume from the latest patch). Does this mean I can download missions that require "BAF"? Thanks.

    Medevac Module

    @goliath86 - It's in SP. Also, it's happening when I am testing it in the editor using "preview". Not sure if that is a problem...do I have to export it for it to work? I have it grouped(or synched, I can't remember) to a game logic as well.

    Medevac Module

    Hi, I get in to be re-inserted, click on the map and see a marker for being reinserted, but the chooper just hovers?
  5. Hi, Is it possible to make a small fire base appear when I trigger it by being present. Do I need to make all the objects somehow not true until the trigger goes? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
  6. Hi, I'm wondering if someone out there has a SP mission where you basically have a base and have to clear the map of enemies. Something that will take hours and hours to play. Looking to do this in Takistan. Thanks.
  7. I don't play online. I love SP and bought it for that. I play my own missions with the editor and haven't played the campaigns for either ARMA2 or OA. I would like to try playing co-op with a few people against AI, but am just too busy with SP. Maybe in the future.
  8. Noob question...Can you explain how I can put this in one of my missions? I would like to "not" know where or when it is going to happen. Cheers.

    need some input (should i buy arma2)

    I bought dragon rising because I thought Arma2 was too complex and difficult. Needless to say, I uninstalled that game after 2 missions and bought ARMA2. I play this game every night. It is just fantastic. I pretty much make all my own missions in the editor. Never touch the campaign or anything else really. You can dial down the difficulty very low to get used to the controls (It's pretty easy with the enemy at zero) and learn the game. It has taken me a while to memorize the commands and I'm still working on it. The editor is pretty easy to use and with a little searching and asking on forums you can make great simple missions (briefings and all that kind of flash takes a bit more work, but you don't need it, or you can...whatever). I can make a mission in an hour that takes 5 hours to play. I would recommend this to anyone disappointed with dragon rising. It can really be tailored to what you want it to be. This is a sandbox in all sense of the word. Like playing soldiers, only digital. The community is great and there seems to be no end to how big the game is. Cheers, Rob
  10. I'll try that. Thank you.
  11. Where do I put that?
  12. Hi, I'm making simple missions for myself and want to spend more time playing than making. I know how to put markers and make a trigger that tells me when the objective has been met. How can I make the marker disappear after it is completed (Example: I place a marker for "patrol town" in center of town and put a trigger that says "objective complete" when I get within 50 meters of it. Now I want the marker to be gone). Thanks, Rob

    If it doesn't. I'll jump off a bridge.

    TrackIR 5 ArmA2 Thread!

    It is odd. Once it completely stopped working. When I play my own missions that I make in the editor, nothing ever goes wrong. I'll try running the apps as administrator. I don't run anything in particular in the background. I use gamebooster to stop most non-essential services (maybe that's it). I do have a logitech G15 keyboard that has a few little things running (clock, and a CPU/RAM monitor). Rob
