    Artillery lethality......

    I also wish the visual effects would be more realistic. I liked how they did it in Op FP, Dragon Rising. Very nice looking.

    Collision Lights Won't Turn Off

    So noticed that a flight of aircraft, at night, one aircraft will have it's collision lights one. But as soon as combat starts, they turn off. Why can't the drones lights turn off?
  3. Pet Peeve. I can't turn off the collision lights on my drones. Even the new Sentinel. Seems very unrealistic to have our stealthy drones up there lighted like a Christmas Tree...... Is there a way to turn them off I am not aware of. There is noting in the options, or settings........ Thank you in advance.

    What did the updates brake now

    I had to delete all of my mods to get ARMA back to 'normal'. And I still get a dump error when the game starts about a missing cnf file for some type of ammo from a mod I tried years ago, and didn't like. I might have to do a clean uninstall and reinstall. I am old enough to remember all games used to be a struggle to get them to work. No so anymore. But ARMA is 'different'. My Steam never gave me any grief until the update. Now it freezes and loads very very very slooooooooooowly.....

    Arma 3 AI targeting

    BI plans on fixing the AI in Q427. In other words don't hold you breath. It isn't on their road may anyway. The AI is not what I would call Good. Something less.... Just make the AI pilot playable and do it yourself. You will save a lot of frustration that way. And yes this topic is an old one.

    Collision Lights Won't Turn Off

    So is that it. You can't turn them off? There is not obvious way to turn them off like in some aircraft. No drop down, no key binding???
  7. The missiles on the drones will only lock on a heated target that is in front of the drone. If you turn and lock onto a target with Ctrl+T or the number pad, the missile will not lock onto it or hit it as it worked before the last upgrade. Unless the target is whiten the missiles cone of view, in front. Dropping bombs works great. You find a target, Ctrl+T, then lase it, and then hit T to get the diamond, and when the bars are solid, drop the bomb. No solid lines and the bomb will miss. Unless I am missing something, please educate me.
  8. So I deleted all mods and addons. BOOM. My AT teams work fine. And now, all my AI units detect and fight normally now. So one of my old mods was messing with my game. However, the drones have to be in a nose dive pointed right at a target to get a lock. This is dumb! and unrealistic. The bombs work great, but you only have 2 on a Sentinel. I can't loiter at a nice safe altitude and rain death from above like before. Just like we do in Pakistan and the middle East. You have to dive down and get a lock before fire a missile off. This needs to be fixed.
  9. I did verify. I do get random errors on startup saying I am missing something from some random mod config folder. Tonight, I will do a clean sweep, and reinstall. And, I am not the only one having these issues. Also, I read that Dev post. My game doesn't work like that. When I am lasing a target from a ground or airborne platform, it never works as advertised. I will update once I have a clean game. Most of my mods are old, and I am sure they are somehow degrading my experience.
  10. I turned off all Mods. I am thinking of deleting all of my mods and reinstalling ARMA 3 all together. I just updated all of my drivers. Still no joy.
  11. I was testing this with the armed drones and they will no longer hit what I am pointing at. The OPFOR drones work fine, but the Blue force missiles don't work. They won't hit hot or cold armor. Not so long ago, the missiles would hit what ever you were looking at. Now they just fly off. Also, when they do lock on a target, they miss by a few feet. No kills. Was this supposed to make the game better, because it hasn't. It isn't fun nor 'realistic'. Please take a closer look at this.

    Enemy Detection and Fighting Stopped

    So I removed units and objects slowly and backtracked trying to find the culprit. Looks like the mission is broken and can't be fixed. I will need to start over. Has anyone else seen this bug?
  13. Hello, So Peace has broken out in my ARMA 3! Units won't detect or fight other units. No mods. Using eden editor to create simple missions with High Command.
  14. I put a column of 8 T-100's going down a road in Safe Mode. Cold night. Clearly visible in Thermal mode. I set up four AT teams, 8 launchers. Not one guy fired off a missile. They reacted to the tanks, even put the missiles on their shoulders. They took a knee, sighted in and no one fired. So, no it isn't working and hasn't been working since the Jets DLC came out. UPDATE: I resolved my issues by deleting all of my mods and addons. One of them must have been interfering in my game.

    Jets dlc - AG MACER

    The Air Force didn't want to get rid of the A-10. Only corrupt generals who wanted a fat commission for building a replacement did. The A-10 can find/lock/track up to 8 targets simultaneously day/night with radar/IR, from a stand off distance, in 2017. The Wipeout is aptly named, because you will wipe-out!

    ATGM and laser lock issue

    The whole radar/target lock/missile range is not working period! I suspect they wanted to make the Wipeout less OP.... Even the AI can't hit shit anymore. Well, not saying much, considering the AI was shit before jets. It's funny that in 2035 the CAS is shit, While in 2017, the A-10 can search/lock and track up to 8 targets simultaneously. And at a safe range. But the air to air missiles seem to work okay, but at a ridiculously short range...

    POOK SAM PACK (May 2022)

    Great Mod. I have a ton of create screen shots in Steam of the SA-20's and 21's firing off. I am having one issue. For some reason, when I put down some of the system, none of the AI want to fight each other. This has only happened when I have used theses units. This is the only mod I am running at this time. Any help would be appreciated.

    POOK SAM PACK (May 2022)

    These are area denial systems. Fly low or send in SF to take them out with .50 cal sniper rifles.

    POOK SAM PACK (May 2022)

    AMAZING!!! Great job! Question, this may only be me and my system, but when I added the mod to my game, it put all of the systems and sites only under BLUFORCE. Did I miss a step???
  20. Hello, So, my divers will not dive. They will only swim at the surface. So I have tried every conceivable combination to get my divers to dive. With Mods, without mods. Vanilla Divers, in Eden, in the old 2d Editor, and in Stratis and Altis. Not wanting to dive. Any ideas?

    Divers Refusing to Dive

    So I updated EVERYTHING and turned off mods. Divers still not wanting to dive.

    Zero Dark Zero

    Still playing with this great mod. Couple things: When ever I am flying the standard vanilla ARMA III aircraft fixed/rotary/jet I get all of this stuff about building a hide site, and all of the sniper options in my choice field (I will get some screen shots tonight). And I haven't even laid down any of these modules down in those missions. And btw, these options never come up when I have been trying out the mod in the test mission or in my own built missions. And would it be possible to add gloves and a balaclava to the HALO jumper. If you are jumping from 80,000 feet, it tends to get a bit cold up there. Keep up the great work!!!!

    Zero Dark Zero

    Thank you Goblin! I figured that may be the issue. I have a lot of templates for my units so that is not unusual. What I like about the Virtual Arsenal is that I can a lot of experimenting in there and it actually saves the stuff I pack in the backpack. Would be nice if we could put jump overalls over our uniforms, and also put uniforms over our wetsuits like in the real world. Keep up the great work!

    Zero Dark Zero

    This is a keeper!!!!! One question: HALO Jumps How can I keep my gear? What is strange is the rest of team lands and has all of their gear, but my player is stuck with his jump suit. Am I missing a step?
