I like the Town Construction Module. In the Takistan map are many open areas. I suggested a Forest Construction Module. I would use it in these open areas. .

How to make OPFOR react to armed civilians?
Joe98 replied to araripe's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
As he said above, select "independents friendly to blue force" OR "independents friendly to nobody" -
"Arma2" and "Arma2 Operation Arrowhead" are 2 separate games. The patches for Arma2 are numbered something like 1.02, 1.03 etc etc The patches for OA are numbered something like 1.50, 1.60 etc etc Go to arma2.com and you will find the separate patches there for both games.

Adding more bomb to the A-10

Sorry, I was not referring to you. It was a generic comment about these forums. I have found ways to do a lot of things without scripts. . -
Adding more bomb to the A-10
Joe98 replied to Trankil's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : ADDONS - Configs & Scripting
Be aware that not all the fans of the game come to the forum every day. Wait a week and then type "bump". is about as rude as you can get!And , the "experts" will typically respond that you need 50 lines of script to achieve your objective. In this case one line is plenty. A magazine holds 4 x GBU12 bombs. You already have one magazine. If you wish to add a second magazine type: {this addMagazine "4Rnd_GBU12"} forEach [1]; now you have two magazines ie eight bombs. If you want 100 bombs you need to add 24 magazines thus: {this addMagazine "4Rnd_GBU12"} forEach [1,2,3,4,5,6 etc etc I am sure you get it ...,24]; Now you have 25 magazines which makes 100 bombs. . . . -
Difference between Arma2, Arma 2 DayZ mod, Arma 2 OA
Joe98 replied to alex809's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
"Day Z" mod is a zombie mod. You get zombies. -
1. There are tutorials. Play through them and change the key bindings as you see fit. 2. There is "the armoury". Here you are a single soldier and you are given various types of missions at random with a large range of weapons. As you play through the armoury and get familiar with the game, again you might tweak the key bindings. It took me 2 months of regular play to reach that point. 3. In the armoury, the only time you control other men is when you are a vehicle commander. As a test, have all the crew get out of the vehicle and then command the men as though you have a squad of 2 or 3 or 4 men. Come back and ask us about commanding men in the game. 4. In "My Missions" the game makes you a squad leader and gives you missions at random. You choose the size of your squad. Your "squad' could be men, or vehicles or tanks or aircraft. Here you really learn how to command units in the game. Have fun! I am up to day approx. 1,200 since I got the game :)

I presume you installed BAF in the same folder as Operation Arrowhead? -

Artillery Barrage without origin
Joe98 replied to oksman's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
I did not realise I had to do that. I note in your script you used _target and not Target I cannot find a helipad so instead I used Objects (Small) - baseball and named it target and later changed it to Target I placed the baseball where an artillery piece might be positioned. This produced sounds in the distance. I moved the baseball nearer to myself. As the trigger fired the rounds targeted the baseball (ie it seemed to target me!) I note that the baseball name target and the name Target both work just fine. Fabulous! . -
Artillery Barrage without origin
Joe98 replied to oksman's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
OK I created a file called arty.sqf and saved it with the mission file The trigger "On Acct" I typed _null = [target] execVM "arty.sqf" When the trigger fires nothing happens. -

PaySafeCard - buying Arma 2: Combined Operations - Some help ?
Joe98 replied to Degman's topic in ARMA 2 & OA - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
You can get a use once credit card. Both MasterCard and Visa do this. Load the card with (say) EUR10.00. Buy the game then throw the card away. After you have loaded the card you cannot load the card again. It is designed that way. Start by looking in your corner stores and supermarkets. -
What is a COSLX ?
-
Together with waypoints. In that way the birds/pigeons/animals can appear in random places and then walk or fly to random places thereby scaring jumpy player.
-
You can't. You need to exit High Command, give orders to your squad then re-enter High Command to order the other units.
-
Tell us about the artillery, I have not heard of that feature.

Iron Front: Liberation 1944 - community patches (Arma version only)
Joe98 replied to .kju's topic in IRON FRONT: LIBERATION 1944 - GENERAL
I agree with those comments. It is just unfortunate that the 1.06 patch for Iron Front cannot be applied to stand alone Iron Front! . -
Error installung Community patch 1.05
Joe98 replied to jens198's topic in IRON FRONT: LIBERATION 1944 - TROUBLESHOOTING
The 1.05 patch came in 2 versions: The DVD-Disk version and the electronic download version. You need to make sure you have the right version. -
Are you sure you are in the right place? There are 2 games: Arma2 and Operation Arrowhead. (These can be combined into one game which we then refer to as "Combined Operations".) "Arma" is the short name for a game called "Arma: Armed Assault" released back in 2006. It has its own forum below. And I enjoy the sandbox type fighting that the Multiplayer offers. I open a multiplayer and just have myself, my team of AI and then an enemy AI team. I am the only human player "Multiplayer" means 2 or more humans. I think perhaps you mean "Single Player". There are no Slovak maps. There are 2 maps, Chenarus and Utes. Both are islands and both are set in a generic Eastern Europe which, if use your imagination stretches from Poland to Russia But every map I have played "super powers" and "civil war", the AI commander in those games builds up to helicopters, then stops. That type of game play does not apply to Arma2 or Operation Arrowhead. .

How to start a mission with High Command already running
Joe98 replied to Joe98's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
To James McKenzie-Smith: Thank you it works perfectly! To the readers: I searched here in the forums, at Armaholic on Google and on Youtube. My search terms were: Arma2 start high command automatically Arma2 begin with high command already running Arma2 start high command with a trigger I type it here so that if anyone else looks for it they should find it. To Zulu1: I find on forums and in emails people don’t read. So, from my point of view our conversation went like this: -

Joe98 replied to Joe98's topic in ARMA 2 & OA : MISSIONS - Editing & Scripting
I did search and found that same 15 page thread dated June 2009. The answer is not in the 15 pages! However you ended your post by answering the question thank you. -
The game was originally available on a CD. Yesterday I saw it on a shelf in a store. Do a search and you will find it.
