I am trying to kill a slow, low-flying, SU-34 from the rear-aspect ~300m and cannot get the Stinger to make any signal tone that its even beginning to track never mind lock it up. Helicopters are easy. I shoot them down without tone. I have never been able to get the Stinger to make any tone. I have seen videos on YouTube of guys who have though.

I am having limited success with this weapon against slow flying SU-34 loitering over the AO. Suggestion welcome. I know, I know missiles 'miss'. Since its a heat seeker, it probably should be only fired from the rear aspect. What indication lets you know when to fire? I have yet to see an SU-34 do anything but make a lot of noise. "The Stinger is a man-portable, shoulder-fired anti-aircraft guided missile system designed to defeat low-altitude air targets. The system is a fire-and-forget missile with a passive infrared seeker and IFF (Identification-Friend-or-Foe) system. The latest versions have improved range, maneuverability and significant countermeasures immunity."

Hey There I am limited to ARMA 2 Free for a couple of months since my PC is in storage so I am limited to my laptop and have been playing a lot the past couple of weeks. I enjoy being a Anti-Armour specialist and can fly Choppas reasonably well with mouse and key. I am mature and can't see any fun in shooting teammates, there's a lot of fun to be had in the multiplayer experience so I look forward to the ARMA 2 Squad experience!

When I spawn with the headbug someone told me to go to: HQ > options > fixheadbug But I dont know where he meant HQ is?

If any squads want to post here as their isn't any dedicated threads and its not easy (time-wise) to search them out.

I have ARMA 2 Free v1.11 This is the only server I have encountered this. {TNT}Arma2 co40 Domination West [v2.212] Cooperative Mission

Whats the lowest altitude and fastest speed a soldier can safely drop in ARMA 2?

Can anyone tell me info on how this is modeled in the sim? Its pretty obvious carrying an AT weapon in addition to a rifle slows you down as I see players zipping past me all the time (I do double tap [W]). Do things like laser marker and its backup battery, binoculars, smoke grenade, extra ammo clips, AT rounds add weight to the soldier?

I am using a Logitech MX Revolution and have been able to customize buttons from within the Setpoint software settings. When I adjusted the Target under "Arma 2 Free" shortcut properties to the parameters "D:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Free\arma2free.exe" -nosplash -skipintro -cpucount=2 -exThreads=1 The application specific button assignments no longer function and I am wondering how to get them working again.

From DXDIAG: Processor: AMD E-300 APU with AMD Radeon HD 6310 Graphics (2 CPUs), ~1.3GHz Graphics: Internal DAC 400Mhz w/936MB approx total memory Memory: 2048MB RAM DirectX 11 Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 I am currently running with everything flatlined @ 1366x768 and have been able to run the MOUT during basic training avg 22 FPS which is fine with me as this is all I have for a PC for a few months and just want to engage in some multiplayer carnage. Today I am going to try Windows ReadyBoost on a USB stick for 3 more gigs of RAM. In windows speaker properties I have enhancements turned off and sample rate at its lowest. Any suggestions on ways to eek out any more performance?

As above I understand Arrowhead has a new campaign but am wondering if the stock Arma 2 cmpgn is also there. Same for Reinforcements, I knowthere's new cmpgns for BAF and PMC Thank-you for any guidance

I think my mission is glitched in some way because the second half of it starts out with two squads w/Strykers and are tasked to engage the nme landing force, and after taking it out along with the BRDM the mission updates to push back SLA armoured forces that have penetrated RACS defensive line. One of the Strykers under AI control heads off to the waypoint and is promptly destroyed by BMPs. Some air support of Harriers and Cobra's help in taking out The BMPs and a T-72. My problem is I'm at the waypoint (checkpoint) with my squad and the remaining Stryker with two Cobra's hovering, no nme's and nothing happening objectives wise. Is there a solution or a 53Campaign walkthrough for ARMA? EDIT: Replayed mission from beginning and took more control of Stryker driving/gunning and passed. Very finicky mission, just glad I got through it, all just practice for ARMA II multiplayer anyway. -cheers

Thank-you

When in the gunner;s position Im unable to get things firing, very strange because the BMP2 is straightforward enough :confused::)
