Bulldog Six

There is some fog in my mission to reduce lagg and increase framerates, but the view distance should be far enough to suit everybody (you can see it in the screenshot 2 posts above). Giving the weather conditions and time of day it is kept both realistic and challenging.

Thanks for the input Bon! I didn't know you were still around. We talked about my mission with each other on teamspeak a while back, I don't know if you recall that - I was online as 'app0815' (Knoll was also around). Hmmm, judging by your description it's certainly beyond my understanding in coding to realize by myself. @Loyalguard: for sure! I would like to know how you did it. Might be helpful for my project. :)

I agree, it's not that easy. but maybe easier than you might think. yes, for MP use! currently I have the combat lights attached to the transport helos (Blackhawk, Chinook and OPFOR Huey's). So the combat lights are always on in them. I just want to add the ability to turn them off and on again. you can take a look at it in my mission here (no further addon's required, just OA standalone): http://www.gamefront.com/files/20997344/AQoP_v0729.zip note: if you want to enter the pilot seat make sure to select a pilot in the unit selection screen or else it will kick you out of the chopper. I included the anti-collision lights for aircraft scripts by Combate Tático Brasil with which you can turn on and off the anti-collision lights as a pilot. but not the combat lights, that's where I need your help. the combat lights are directly attached to the choppers in the editor via init code - which I guess I would have to change to a script like the anti-collision lights but I lack the knowledge in coding to do it.

Version 0.729 has been released! go get it boys & girls! :) Changes in 0.729: - added Anti-Collision Lights for Aircraft scripts by Combate Tático Brasil (scripts-ONLY Version, no add-on's AT ALL required) supported Vehicles are the UH1H Blackhawk, the AH64 Apache, the CH47 Chinook, the AI controlled C130 (emergency landing at mission start) and the AI controlled AH64 Apache base defence helicopter - fixed clipping error with a "jumping" AI soldier on a tank in BLUFOR's vehicle repair area - renamed mission to "AAS/PVP 68 A Question Of Perspective" for the mission selection page (actually looks much better in motion than on a screenshot) Get it because it's hothothot!

hello? do you need additional information? it shouldn't be that complicated. basically, structurewise it should look kinda like this (I think): if DRIVER is PILOT and if combat lights are "OFF" then ADD_ACTION "turn on combat lights" (turn on combat lights -> if VEHICLE is UH1H use LIGHT SETTINGS 1; if vehicle CH47 use LIGHT SETTINGS 2; if VEHICLE is HUEY use LIGHT SETTINGS 3) if COMBAT LIGHTS are "ON" then PILOT ADD_ACTION "turn off combat lights" and REMOVE ACTION "turn on combat lights" if PILOT selects action "turn off combat lights" then REMOVE COMBAT LIGHT OBJECTS from LIGHT SETTINGS 1, 2 or 3 //depending on in which helo he's sitting preferrably all light settings should be accessible in the same file, but if it's easier to give each helo it's own light settings script then that's ok too. help me please! where's the code pro's?

hey fellas! I have some helicopters in my mission which have a red combat light in them which is on by default. But I would like to give the pilot the option to turn it on and off. Can someone please help me with it? this is the code for my UH60 lights: light1 = "#lightpoint" createVehicleLocal [0,0,0]; light1 setLightBrightness 0.02; light1 setLightAmbient [0.02,0,0]; light1 setLightColor [1,0,0]; light1 lightAttachObject [this,[-0.8,2.7,-0.5]]; light2 = "#lightpoint" createVehicleLocal [0,0,0]; light2 setLightBrightness 0.02; light2 setLightAmbient [0.02,0,0]; light2 setLightColor [1,0,0]; light2 lightAttachObject [this,[0.8,2.7,-0.5]]; also how do I include slightly different codes for other helo types so one script works for different helos? I guess I need to use the addaction command and create lightOn and lightOff scripts which differentiate between different helo types and uses the proper code for them - but that's where I need your help. I need it for 3 helo types: the Blackhawk ("UH60M_EP1"), the Chinook ("CH_47F_EP1") and the Huey ("UH1H_TK_EP1"). Just use the same code for all helo types and I'll alter it for them accordingly. Please help me out fellas! How do I do this?

Version 0.727 has been released. Have fun!

It would be great if you could find the time to make a script version - it seems like I'm not the only one who would love to see that (NkEnNy and others agree). It would be really useful in an addons-free mission.

Because to have information about your browsing habbits may also prove useful to discredit you. an example: let's say you're a good guy wanting to change things for the better and running for congressman or some kind of community spokesman. But you have or had the habit to watch the occassional porn online every now and then (and c'mon, don't tell me you never watched porn online). If some power that be (opposition, press, lobbyists, etc) wants to remove you because they don't like your good-intent-agenda and depict you as some perv who likes to jerk off on porn sites - they CAN. Everybody has something to hide. You just won't admit it or haven't thought about your statement thorough enough. Be it watching porn, browsing on activists/political websites, researching about how to make your own silencers or looking for an alternative to fossil fuels to save money and taxes.. there is always something. by the way: there is no such thing as 'Terrorists". the only real terrorists I've come across so far are called politicians. if you bought the disinformation on the mass media you are not as sceptical as you think. Ha! You're just too naive. You'll think otherwise when FEMA comes by your house and tells you to obey. An example would be this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjum7kLuTGg You're right, but that's not the only thing an employer can hold against you. If he sees your facebook profile has been automatically updated late at night and you show up late for work coming up with some other excuse your credibility is out the window. It's not only about what you put in yourself. I posted earlier some articles on how facebook is keeping track of your habits without you even noticing it. You're one of those persons who believe whatever they want to believe - even though reality is far from it. Have a nice blue-pill day!

No, not just for Arma2 free. For all mission makers who would like to include this great tool and don't want their mission to require downloading addons. It would be great if someone could find the time to make a script version. If I was better at scripting I'd do it myself. Most of it is already scripted, looks like it just needs some minor changes when one extracts the pbo. Dslyecxi stated he'd support such an improvement but lacks the time to do it himself.

Update: Facebook tracks you even after you've logged out There is a saying: "Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not coming for you." Reading through some of the posts it is obvious that some here either can't grasp the power of information - or won't admit it. If you think facebook is gathering information for the benefit of you (i.e. to provide you with products of your interest), you're wrong. If you think the great number of active users is a weakness of facebook by which you can "hide in the crowd", you're wrong. If you think giving a fake name is enough to stay anonymous, you're wrong. You ARE the product. Your data IS being profiled automatically (yes, there are scripts and algorithms written for that). Your I.P. IS logged. Your profile data IS accessible to law enforcement & press when necessary. A common example about how your data can be used against you is when you are looking for a job. Smart(ass) employers will google your name & check your profile and ask you questions in an interview (based on the data you provide) which will make you blush. The information you provide in facebook may result in you losing your leverage and credibility when negotiating your salary (IF you make it to that junction, that is). That is just one example. Another would be what law enforcement can do with your data. Should you ever get in trouble with the (in)justice department, your data may be used against you. The press is also able to frame you based on your profile. A known example would be Anna Chapman, a russian sleeper. What I'm trying to teach you is: there's many ways to use your facebook data against you. Protect yourself and avoid it entirely if it's not too late.

Facebook pulling their security tight with hackers - Ask yourself: are they doing this for your benefit or theirs? How to stop Facebook from tracking you across the internet Also helpful: Declare facebook.com and fbcdn.net as not trustworthy in the Firefox AddOn "NoScript". Additionally you can setup a filter for http://www.facebook.com/* and fbcdn.net^ with "Adblock Plus". Unlike: why Facebook integration is actually antisocial Update: Facebook tracks you even after you've logged out

is this modification already in the official release included or do I have to replace "car" in the init line with something else?

I put the vehicle detection code into a terminal humvee and get this error message after a couple of seconds: Is anyone else getting this error or maybe fixed it already? Please let me know!

can it be implemented into missions as a script only version?
