  1. I had 3 SSDs die on me over the course of roughly 8 month. All of them (1x Intel G2 160GB and 2x Samsungs 128GB) started throwing S.M.A.R.T. errors after about 3-4 month of usage due to "too many bad sectors". All of them were replaced under warranty, but it did enough to lessen my enthusiasm for this young technology. With productivity systems (my PC is used for work as well as gaming), speed is nothing without relyability.

    (Actually, when doing the support call to replace the faulty drives, the Intel support guy actually told me that consumer level MLC based SSDs aren't meant for highly dynamic data patterns, like swap files, databases ect. He told me to buy an enterprise level SLC based SSD for that kind of use. ^_^" Dunno if that is correct or only potential money making, but I tend to agree that the SSDs I had installed seemingly did not like being used for swapping and my SQL databases.)

    Just saying. Don't intend to rain on anybodies parade here. Carry on. :D

    Copy that. Too bad, but can't be helped then. Thank you for the information.

    Just out of curiousity, though, what is the model AGM114HellfirePod.p3d in Air.pbo used for then? And why is there a hellfire model called hellfire.p3d in weapons.pbo as well as AGM114Hellfire.p3d in Air.pbo, both of which seem to be identical, at least from looking at them ingame? Just redundancy? Leftovers from development?

    Ah, well, anyways, thanks again. I appreciate it.


  3. Salutations, everybody.

    I only recently aquired ArmA2 and for starters decided to get my feet wet modding-wise by simply creating a variant of an already existing vehicle.

    In my case, I am trying to make a variant of the CDF Mi-35 that carries Hellfires and FFARs instead of the AT2s and 57mm Rockets.

    I got the config and all down, everythings working in the game, too.

    The only problem I now have is that while the Heli is correctly armed with Hellfires and FFARs like the AH1Z Supercobra, the actual 3D model still shows the standard AT2 launchers (but with Hellfires on them instead of AT2s) and the 57mm Rocketpods instead of the FFAR Launcher Pods.

    I think I very vaguely remember something about the weapons being separate models just "attached" to the vehicles from the OFP days (never bothered with Resistance or ArmA1), but I would nonetheless be very thankful if somebody could give me a quick scoop on how to change the launcher shown on the 3D model (and if it is actually possible at all, but since a glancing check showed that there is a AGM114HellfirePod.p3d, I presume so).

    Cheers and thank you.
