  1. No, it doesn´t. You only missed an excellent bonus Mission. ACE shouldn´t effect the Tanks in that way, something went really wrong there, maybe you should reload and try again.

    Last nite, I reloaded it. It worked this time. However. some weird thing still happened. This time all 3 tanks spawned okay. But they stopped long before reaching that spot marked by orange circle. But the dialogue started anyway. lol


  2. There should arrive 3 Tanks with their Crew inside, do you use some AI Mods?

    I am only using ACE 2 mod. So I need play this with vanilla version? Looks like the third tank got destroyed somehow. That's maybe why I only saw 2 tanks with 2 crew men walking on foot. Also, AIs drove their tanks like they just had several bottles of vodka. The vehicles were going crazy on the road.

    :D


  3. You mean the spot marked by that orange circle rite? I was there, but no dialogues. Also, the radio from HQ said there would be an armor column. I only encountered 2 t-90s and 2 crew memebers walking on foot. Also, I waited a long time for them to show up. Are these the people I am supposed to talk to? Or maybe the guy that can start the dialogue got killed in a traffic accident? (friendly traffic accidents are so common in Arma 2 lol)


  4. Great Campaign. One of the best I ever played. However, I am stucked at Mission 5 Steamroller. I went up north and set up a roadblock. Russians arrived, but they just stood there. There is no1 I can talk to. I waited 5 min, nothing happens. So what should I do next?


  5. Another way is to select the Gunner in the command menu and order him to load a different ammo type.

    Assuming the gunner is soldier n°3 you select him by pressing F3, then you select "Actions" by pressing 6, and then you order him to load the appropriate ammo by selecting the appropriate option presented in the menu.

    For example, I have the M830 HEAT-MP loaded and I'm expecting to run into enemy armor, so I want to switch to SABOT:

    -I select the gunner (in this case n°2) by pressing F2

    -I press 6

    -since I want the SABOT, I press 2

    The only problem with this system is that the game (and ACE) uses the military designation of every type of ammunition, which can be confusing when using Russian assets, since there are some ammunition type that only have the military code, with no HE/APFSDS/HEAT at the end.

    Ah, I see. I'll try that when I get home today :ok:


  6. It is ctr+R, works on all units with two ammo types per gun like M1A1, BMP3 or Kamov.

    Weird, it doesn't work for me. I tried both manual firing or non-manual firing. It seems you can only change from Sabot to HEAT through gunner or loader position. Btw, what does ctr+r link to under your control setting? (reload?)


  7. Hi, I am new to this game, still trying to get a feel of the game. I am wondering if there is a way to order your gunner to switch between different ammo (i.e. HEAT to SABOT). Also, after installing ACE2, all my mounted machine guns (i.e. guns on HUMVEE or M1 tanks) lost their crosshairs. Is there a way to get them back? I notice the crosshair is there for Chinese PLA tanks, but not for Americans.
