I'm looking to get back into online, realism gaming with Arma. Haven't been in a unit for about a year now, been spending most of my time in the editor making missions and such. What I'm Looking For: A U.S. based realism unit that is (preferably) based on the U.S. Army. What I Bring to the Table: I'm currently serving in the U.S. Army, have been in for a little over two years now, so I do have some real world experience when it comes to how the military works. I also have fairly extensive mission editor knowledge, so I can offer assistance with mission editing/scripting. I have previously been in two realism units, both of which have disbanded, and I have held a leadership position of some sort in each unit. Additional info: Location: United States Language: English Age: 19 Playtimes: EST, specific times dependant on school/work Role: Infantry Games: Arma 2 Combined Operations Mods: Sure Mic: Yes Please send me a PM here on the forum if you think you would like me to be a member of your unit or if you have any additional questions for me.

I've used that before. I just didn't think to include it for some reason. I'll include it if/when I update.

Those items should be included in the Lingor units and the Lingor Island downloads. Do you have the latest versions?

I just tested this and it worked: 1. Place an OPFOR unit and give it a name of your choice 2. Save the mission 3. Open up the "mission.sqm" file 4. Search for the unit you just placed by it's name and you should see something like this: 5. Where it says vehicle="somename" replace what's between the quotes with "Land_Fregata" 6. Save the mission.sqm and reopen the mission in the editor and it should work

Glad to help :)

That is odd. I put your code into my own mission and I don't get any duplicate tasks. Are you running with any addons enabled? Also as a side note, in order for the setCurrentTask command to work properly it should be written: player setCurrentTask tskarea1; Update Also check to make sure you are not executing the briefing script twice. That will cause duplicates in the tasks and notes.

I really like the camo. I believe that's multicam, correct?

Okay I searched but each search brought up more than 100 or so topics. Sometimes when I run Arrowhead it loads the main menu then I get a crash to the desktop. I had this problem once before, but I just rebooted and it loaded just fine. I don't know what could possibly be causing this. Thanks in advance!

Yes I made sure my sound card was up to date. I just tried running the game a few hours ago and it started fine. I also unpacked the pbo's containing these files and they all played no problem.

No error message Windows just tells me the program stopped working. Running latest version. No I'm not using addons. I do very much like pizza, and get the following reports in arma2oa.rpt that look suspicious: Warning: looped for animation: ca\wheeled\data\anim\uaz_cargo01_v0.rtm differs (looped now 0)! MoveName: kia_uaz_cargo02 Warning: looped for animation: ca\wheeled\data\anim\uaz_cargo01_v0.rtm differs (looped now 1)!

I have to keep the game on low settings because my graphics card is crap, short on cash not enough for a good one. But I don't believe that's the issue. The game worked fine before. I do notice that the gray rectangle that shows up with the check boxes before startup takes a while to show up.

I want an AI officer to walk up to a table which will initiate a conversation between him and another officer behind the table. But the officer walking up to the table stops about 5 meters from the table. Is there anyway to avoid this?

Finally got it to work! I played around with the waypoint's position for a while and I got the guy to get reasonably close enough to the table. Thanks so much for all the help! :)

I set up the way point so that once the AI reaches it he begins a walking action. The action activates correctly, but he starts walking in place the same distance from the table. It seems that the AI is aware that something is blocking it's path and will only go around it.

using doMove table, he moves to the table but stands 5 meters behind or in front of it. If I move the waypoint I get the same result. Is there anyway to get the AI to stand directly on where the waypoint is placed?

Thanks for the little tutorial. Will definitely use this!

Okay, thanks ruebe!

I searched the forum and didn't find anything for this topic, I may be using the wrong name. Is there anyway to add these: http://www.armatechsquad.com/ArmA2Class/Markers/CfgMarkerBrushes/ to the map, and if so, how? Thanks.

This is what I do: 1. Go to the mission folder and open the mission.sqm 2. Search (Ctrl+F in notepad) for civ and change SIDE civ to west (bluefor), guer (independent), or east (opfor) depending on who you want to fire on the civillians. 3. Save mission.sqm If you change Side civ to Side west, the opfor will fire on them

I would like to make a campaign but I cannot come up with a solid enough line of events. Post a scenario and if you want, the island for it to be on.

What will become of A.C.E. 2? Looks like many of the things in ACE are going to be replaced by this expansion.

I have been using mrmurray's ArmA 1 editing guide and it works but I have a problem. I want to generate some enemies in a town after a helicopter insertion. I can get the unit to generate with this code: "MOL_Rifleman" createUnit [position player, S1, "Name1=this",0.7,"Corporal"] But they generate on my location. How do I get them to generate in the town?

I am going to try and make some kind of fictional campaign maybe with some USMC US Army joint ops missions.

Still doesn't seem to work. I have it set up so that once the player reaches a waypoint the enemy spawns. I get to the waypoint and nothing happens.
