Lingor Jungle SF - Rhodesy
SIXTWO replied to Rhodesy77's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
these units look boss, thank you. -
I LOVE THIS MOD. After downloading it a few days back i never thanked u guys. So..... thank youuuu I44 team ... You've made this week so much fun on Arma 2 for me. :D This mod and 31st mod aree soo madd!! Not long ago i made a short little test mission using both mods. I used, I44 C-47, 31st 101st infantry, I44 heer infantry and I44 flak 36's and other little things... The mission looked so epic... it was Mass airborne drop mission obviously... I used like 20+ C-47's and filled them with 101st airborne units, and it loooked soo real. it basically looked exactly like there were thousands of troops dropping in.. unfortunately as soon as i hit the ground my computer overclocked and i got "mass" lag.. :( lol
-
what exactly is meant to happen. the planes fly straight over the island, and not one unit ejects?? Perhaps add some triggers and simple scripting that will force all units in the planes cargo to eject. Your looking at something like this to do the job: Paradrop Script Template Just use the template, copy it over to the I44 Omaha map, and change all the units to I44 units.... planes, units... raa raa raa. Other than that... this mission could be really good. I love those mass para-drop missions. i like making my own but i like to see what others make. Good luck. hope i helped. :D :bye:

Arma 2 Addon request thread
SIXTWO replied to Placebo's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
hmm, i think its about time someone should start to think about making WWII USMC and Japanese units... including, all tanks, vehicles and aircraft... and a nifty pacific island to go with it.. something sorta like Peleliu, Tarawa, Guadalcanal or iwo jima... Anyone of those.. (personal favorite would be iwo jima) Who knows, maybe the 31normandy or I44 team will convert over to pacific theater.. (Doubt it lol) Would be bloody epic imo though. -
yeah, that done the trick. For those with the same problem, unpack the pbo with anyone of these tools: cpbo pbo view or Eliteness Then open up the PHCAMPAIGN file, then open up the "description.ext" with note pad. Then scroll down until you find this And where it says "PH_Troy_C3.Desert;" Change it to "PH_Troy_C3.Desert_E" by simple adding "_E". "Desert_E" is the actual name of the island, so the game isn't recognizing "desert". Hope that helps those that don't wanna wait until kiki updates AGAIN. ;)
-
nope, just opened it up. everything seems to be fine still. "ph_troy_c3.desert" I too get that crash, error in campaign structure.
-
kool thanks, i will download and play "escape" again and see if it works on my end. Oh and for those that have lots of other little bugs, most of them are caused by addon conflicts. I Turnt every addon off, except the ones required, and the campaign played smoothly e.g. ACE is a good example. On the first mission, to radio tower wouldn't blow up. Turnt ACE off, and it worked fine. Thanks again kiki

can't get pass the mission where your base is being attacked by BMP's and u have to run to the bunker (alpha). Get to Alpha...... but nothing happens. I stood in the bunker for a long time. the explosions stopped.... now all i hear is gun fire and I've been sitting there for like 20 mins and the mission doesn't continue.. is this a bug or have i missed something that i need to? do

Ok, so two days ago, i could play Arma 2... smoothly. Then One day ago, i went to install the latest GT 9800 driver. :( Then my computer wouldn't turn on, So i chucked it in safe mode, and by instinct a new that it was the new driver causing this. So i went into device manager, found my graphics card, uninstalled the driver update... then my graphics card wasn't in device manager anymore?? But anyways, it fixed the problem of win 7 not turning on. Then i installed the new driver AGAIN, and it installed fine.. well... half of it installed, the phyX thingy (forgot wat its called) didn't install, but the driver update, and the 3d thing installed fine.. Ok, so now when i try to run Arma 2, this pops up: "Display adapter does not support format D24S8 for X8R8G8B8" The game won't run, I did a quick Google search and found a topic on these forums, but it told me to go into dxdiag, then turn direct draw on... Did this, but it says direct draw is unavailable. Would anyone be as kind as to look into this for me and help me out, i miss Arma already :( :o lol Thanks in advance,

So went into safe mode again, uninstalled that driver update. Computer turned on fine after that. Main problem still persists, Arma 2 won't launch and that error message still appears. ---------- Post added at 02:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ---------- -.- alrighty then, now win 7 won't run at all... This has gone too far now, i think i might take this problem to a computer tech forum or win 7 forum. Atm im currently using win XP, as my computer has two Operating systems. (thank god) but i would still like to fix win 7, as win XP is SLOW and UNSTABLE for me.

Arma 2 Addon request thread
SIXTWO replied to Placebo's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: DISCUSSION
Hey, has anyone got a exact replica of FOB Arizona from BAF... well i think it was called Arizona.. or was that OA Can't remember. wellll anyways, the FOB from BAF. Or does anyone know how i could rip it out of the BIS game somehow.. i really need that FOB template for a mission. I already have a FOB that i downloaded, but that's at the Other airfield (US FOB, or OA FOB). Would be very kind Thanks in advance. -
I can't seem to use any ACE equipment. Things like: earplugs, goggles, balaclavas, gasmasks... well, basically every thing. Config edit? yes, i have put my profile name in the right spot, click save, click "over write",then "access denied" comes up. So, i try to work around this, buy moving that config file to a safe file, delete the one in ace file, then click save on notepad, ra ra ra... so basically i created a new one with the same contents as the original one. It worked, saved and all. Start up ArmA 2 CO.. Equipment is still not showing up in action menu or any another menu in-game. Yes i have looked just about everywhere for a solution, But no topic is close enough to give me an exact answer. Would be very helpful and much appreciated for any help, Thanks in advance.

There are over 100 servers atm, probly over 200, but i havent counted. Yes, the mulitplayer is good imo, you should download the demo first just to be safe, this game is not for everyone, so give the demo a download and see for yourself. :) (the demo has multiplayer as well)

Afghanistan - Uruzgan: WIP-release
SIXTWO replied to bad benson's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - ADDONS & MODS: COMPLETE
soooo, does this mean i gotta wait until it is released for OA to play this with CO, because it still should work on CO right? :/ well i don't got a lot of knowledge about island making and stuff. ill try run ArmA 2 separate from CO and see if it works. it should right? or maybe ive got some files all mixed up. :S -
Will my PC Run this? What CPU/GPU to get? What settings? System Specifications.
SIXTWO replied to Placebo's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
thanks for the info, as u may notice im not the best with computers. I will props upgrade in the near future when i start earning more money, :S. But just curious, will an extra 4gb of RAM make any difference at all? i mean atm my ArmA 2 is runing with 67% 3D, terrain detail on low, post pone disabled, texture details on high, and everything else on medium. And it doesnt look too good, well its enough to play on for now. But will buy more RAM be worth it for the time being? or should i wait it out until the money comes in for some new full upgrades, Oh and what is a good example of a really good graphics card? because i though gt9800 was good, :/ obviously not. -

SIXTWO replied to Placebo's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Hey all, was also wandering what would be the best 8GB of RAM to buy, what brands, prices, etc. and would it run on my system: AMD Phenom II X4 810 2.60GHz Quadcore 2.00GB RAM Nvidia Geforce GT 9800 Win7 ultimate 64bit OS EDIT: Well not necessarily 8GB RAM, but im looking for somthing higher than my current (2GB) that will run ArmA 2 flat out on high settings. -
Ive only got 2gb of RAM, would this help at all for? If not dw im gettin new RAM soon. any ideas on whats the best RAM out for ArmA 2?

SIXTWO replied to Placebo's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Thanks for your ideas, i am going to try disable some settings on Win 7, to see ma fps turns out like, gonna wait till my bandwidth is back to normal speed and download updated divers. I am currently using patch 1.07 with Combined ops. Do not want to beta patch, i like to play mulitplayer sometimes. And also i changed a few settings, some are on low still, but i upped a few and made some changes, and even though it doesn't look sparkle sparkle, im getting 40fps on average with small fire battles, and 25 with fraps, which is recordable. Plus my mates said hes got a spare 3gb ram living in his closet, but i doupt it will be the right brand to fit my computer. :/ well thanks again for ur ideas. -

AMD Phenom II X4 810 2.60GHz Quadcore 2.00GB RAM Nvidia Geforce GT 9800 Win7 ultimate 64bit OS ----------------------------------------------------- video settings all on medium except: Textures > low Post pone > verylow (man thats burns ur eyes after a good hours play, gonna need glasses soon if i keap playing :S) 3D res > 75% Veiw distance > the view distance bar is like half way (^ And i think there is a few more settings on low, the rest is set to medium.) Any way, all those settings just makes the game look soooooo horrible, but thats what they are set to to get a good 30fps, BUT Fps drops to about 20-25 wen in fire fights with lots of enemys, in fast aircraft, near artillery barrages..... etc more. And finaly, 15-20 Fps when recording with Fraps on lowest fps. (Which is so sad, since my favorite thing to do on games is movie making :( :@ big let down) My main point on top of this all is: WTF!! Ive seen people with lower computers than me achieve beautiful fps, and also get good fps while recording with fraps Just someone reading this, open up chernarus' change ur settings to what mine are set to.... -.- looks terrible right? i mean, get on top of the highest peak in cherarus' and look at how ugly, dull and unatractive it looks, im losing will to play this, all because BIS didn't make the game friendly to different hardware. And i looovee this game, but sadly, i don't like to play it that much due to eyes watering, mind-grains... bla bla. Ive tryed all the start up codes like winXP, ra ra ra every single one of them, yet i open up task manager, CPU seems to be only running 10-20%. But RAM seems to be using 1.00GB to 1.20 GB. Is there a way to turn it up? since i have Quadcores? I was going to download latest drivers for my hardware, only to find that i have to wait 8 more days till i can download anything since my month bandwidth has gone over. But still latest drivers won't entirely make a hole lot difference. Plus i have tryed to make changes to my Nvidia card settings in control pannel, only to open up my control pannel and not find the nvidia control panel (if you got all that :)/). ???? Please help, or i might have to sell this game. :( which i never intend on doing on a million years, :/ but there might be no choice soon. -
How do you .sqf script custom weapon loadouts for units and cargo (cars, ammoboxes)?
SIXTWO replied to SIXTWO's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - USER MISSIONS
kool thanks, and can't it do vehicles by changing somethings to AddMagazineCargo & AddWeaponCargo..? EDIT: and can a mod please move to editer section, and i apologize for wrong section, i was just off in another world :P -
We all no how to do it simply with the units init, and the cars init... etc. It just takes soo dam long to make a every single units custom load out im getting annoyed. plus a scrip would be easier to save and use for future missions instead of me having to type in every units init field. So, I've tried to Google all this, only found one that was close to what i want, but it was for ACE. :'( Or, would this be a more config related thing? ---------- Post added at 01:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 AM ---------- Damm curse you tiredness!!! sorrrryyy was meant to post this is editor section :@@@@@@@@@@ Someone pleeaaassee movvee :)))) im so silly.

Need help with A10 bombing, AI suck at flying.
SIXTWO posted a topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
Ive searched every inch of the web to mi abilities, so don t flame me. Now all i want is to now how to get a A10 to take out a tank straight away. e.g. Set up tank on runway, setup A10 a few miles away, set him to flying, chuck a destroy waypoint ontop of the tank. But all the A10 does is shoot a few rounds of it machine gun at in, then fly over it, moments later it turns around does another lap and finally shoots a rocket at him which finally makes the tank go boom boom. Is there any simple way or a script that can make that darn A10 shoot that tank on its first run, or for those that don't quite get me; i don't want the A10 to drive over the tank, then turn around and shoot him with a rocket, i want him to shoot the tank first then fly over it. :D
