  1. Hey lurch, quick question from a guy who unfortunately only knows a little about scripting, if I wanted to change the 105 from the scripted version, not the addon, since the server I'm making the mission for refuses to add it to their pack, to the M119's ammunition in ACE, what would I have to change? I've hunted through the Ac130_guns.sqf file but unfortunately I can't make heads or tails of it.

    Thank you for this awesome script, bytheway.


  2. Hey Dwarden, I'm trying to run, from steam, CO with mods and beta patch. To make the load lighter I just replaced OA's exe with the beta patches and merged the extensions folders, and now, when running it, it refuses to show my mods, as it did before. The mod in question, though of little signifigance, is an AC130 mod, @LDL. I placed it in both arma 2 folder and OA folder, yet on startup the mod still does not appear. I then used the manual method to patch A2 over to OA, adding -mod=@LDL to the shortcut on startup and still, no dice, the mod didn't load into the game. I tried using the port mod over manually, since the ac130 is cross compatible, once again no dice. Not urgent, the script works fine, it just cuts down on realism slightly, firing HEAT instead of actual 105s. I'll be fine waiting until the Steam patch.

    Edit:In game manager refuses to work, but the manual integration with -mod works now. Had an error in launch options.


  3. Okay guys

    There is no way to save the reporter, he is dead from mission start.

    The civvy inside, however, only dies if he goes prone, as the physics engine crushes him inside of the filing cabinet. If you couldn't find the building he's in, from the dead reporter, head to the huge building in the center with the conveyer belt on the side, on the side facing the road there is an open door, and another next to it, he's in there Try opening the door in a way you aren't seen, waiting, then stepping in with and firing once, without being seen by the civvy. If he sees you, he will go prone to avoid getting in your way, killing himself. Be careful, the keyboard is very worn down and hard to tell the difference between the 7 like figures. Just guess and pray, and try to get as close as possible before engaging, and kill them as quickly as possible, so that the timer doesn't tick down as much. The second the alarm goes off, the timer starts.

    Later in the second,

    anti air part, don't bother with the Zeus turret unless you have experience, lead ahead and only fire when the circle shows that you will hit if you want to try it anyway. Otherwise, the second you jump off the little bird, head to the ammo crates, find the long one, and pick up the igla and a igla rocket. Once you lock onto the first plane, wait until it is going straight towards you and fire above it and to the left. Run, grab another, then repeat for the next 2

    Hope this helps men.
