  2. [MAG] Mobile Assault Group Recruiting Who are we? Mobile Assault Group are an established ArmA clan that has been around since 2009. We try to focus on the realism side but we ensure not at the expense of fun for our members. Our members are from a wide variety of backgrounds; with our common interest being ArmA but you will find us organising events for other games too. What we do? We run two ArmA operations every week allowing everyone a chance to take part. Thursday 7pm- 9pm GMT: A random op or mission Sunday 7:30pm - 10pm GMT: MAG campaign built by our members. Outwith the Operation slots. our ArmA server hosts Domination and Warfare missions that can be accessed anytime by the public. So feel free to join us for some TacDomi! Why should I join? It's a good question, and with the sheer number of units in ArmA 3 today, I'll tell you. MAG has a unique atmosphere, where rather than just being a few clan-mates, we call ourselves friends. There's almost always someone on our TeamSpeak, whether it's 2 in the afternoon, or 3 in the morning. Our missions are all very high quality, custom-made within MAG, and rigorously tested before being accepted as a fully-tested approved MAG Mission, so you know there won't be a boring or broken mission in sight. Our Unique Selling Points Great facilities for you to use; large slot Teamspeak server, high performance dedicated game server, professionally built forum Great heritage; with over three years of existence and we are still here! No drama!; we discourage petty politics and clan issues are virtually non-existant Training; with our shared knowledge you can pick up how to make great ArmA missions, lead squads or even teach us something! You are valued; everyone has a say, from a freshman up to the most seasoned veteran. And ideas are given open ears! I want to apply Great! Good news, we're always looking for new members, and if you've bothered to read all this, you've probably got what it takes!

    Please help, can't launch Arma 3

    All I can say is do the following in this order: -Check for windows updates -Update your Video and Sound card drivers. -Do a virus scan -Run steam as admin -Run arma as admin -Delete your "client.blob" file in Steam directory, then check for updates on your ArmA 3 game -Uninstall steam and reinstall along with ArmA 3

    Update #3 - 3 Section Formed and Twitch TV With membership increasing within MAG we are now opening up our 3rd section which will provide Air support during operations and CASEVAC. Twitch Channel http://www.twitch.tv/loosebruce
  7. For missions I am wanting to give HQ a truck which will act as a logistics and support vehicle. I already have one part covered which is having some ammunition in the inventory to give resupply during operations. However the other areas I am unsure about implementing. UAV command; when inside or near truck a person can call in a UAV and observe from it. Support call; only inside or near the Hunter a person can call in support (mortar, airstrike) When near car units can heal themselves without need of medic - instead of HMMVW medic car When near car vehicles can repair themselves, similar to repair zone but needs to be able to move , similar to MTVR repair Will all this additional stuff cause too much confusion in the vehicle or strange bugs? Should this be done in the description.ext where I should manually change the car class? Any advice is appreciated.

    Update #2 - Mods and Videos With under a month now till the release of ArmA 3, MAG are using a finite amount of mods to keep us going. Once ArmA is released we ditch most of the mods until new stuff comes up. Current Mods AllinArmA PG Services (PMC's) Shacktac Hud ACRE CBA_A3 Video Channel New operation vids are up Sqwaacckkk
  11. Unless the script causes a catastrophic exception I dont feel we need to know about minor script issues with variables popping up on my screen
  12. I am getting this error as well, I have tried using "-nologs" parameter but to no avail. It is being caused by SQFs having using undefined variables. Problems with JayArmALib and CBA

    [MAG] Mobile Assault Group are Recruiting

    Update 1 - Growth , ACRE and AllInArma (AiA) It has now been a few months since we have re-activated and we are now at two sections plus a HQ. Looking further down the line we plan to expand into a third section and thereafter an Air Support Group. HQ - Johnson as CO and Deathblades as 2IC 1 Section - Are the vanguard in the clan 2 Section - Supporting role with transport and specialists in AT, AA and Demo 3 Section - Active as of 25th August 2013 ACRE After trialling for the first month we are now making ACRE a mandatory component of all our missions and events. All in ArmA As a stop gap until the full release candidate of ArmA 3, we will be using All in ArmA mod to carry out some missions in Chernarus and Takistan. The old ArmA 2 maps look much better with the A3 engine. More info on All in ArmA : http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=20106

Language: English
  16. Greetings, Currently we have an ArmA 3 server which we are only using for a few days a week, the rest of the time it remains dormant and empty. Which is a waste of a good server! So I would like to open this opportunity up to the community , especially for clans and groups starting up who do not have their own game server to run their own missions on the server when its not being used by anyone else. This is just a trial at the moment as there will need to be some planning involved in managing this (timetables, access etc) We have created this google docs form where you can register your interest: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1sBjCPRGjEZOFRrpWPoQqM4EA8CFEgNG5l5RB1wQUZBE/viewform Server Specs Intel® Core™ i7-920 Quadcore incl. Hyper-Threading Technology RAM 24 GB DDR3 RAM FAQ How much will this cost? Nothing, its free to use Will we have full control of the server? No you will have control of the ArmA 3 server during your allotted time period. How is this going to work? Still figuring it out :) When can I know I have a time slot? Will have to create a timetable of peoples requests, and will then contact you with a time to run your mission. Timeslots? 2-3 hours The Vision I see many empty servers on ArmA 3 and ArmA 2, maybe in the future we can organize with other groups a cooperative ArmA 3 server share system. This would make it easier for clans without money to have their own missions. It would also save the environment. -Please do not PM me, use the form (link above)

    Controller/Joystick mapping

    Hey all, Sorry to bump , but do you think If I got one of the 360 controller keyboards that plug in, that could be used for more interaction with ArmA. Does Windows recognize it as a keyboard or seperate input device?
  18. Hello all, I am a gentle soul used to the luxuries of the Western world. I have been travelling around Europe and have just arrived in Croatia from Slovenian border. When I got off the train I was in desperate need of the bathroom however when I entered the mens room I was confronted by this strange ....... thing! After about 10 minutes I decided to give up the prospect of using this strange contraption and retreated to the hotel. I was wondering in hindsight if some of the enlightened members from Eastern Europe have and explanation why you use these things instead of a normal toilet ? :P I am going also to : -Hungary -Slovakia -Czech Republic Will I be confronted by these horrors again.....

    European Politics Thread.

    Its times like these that I am happy the UK is still using the pound. I mean we are not in a great position ourselves but we could have been in a worse situation if we were flying with the crows in the EU. I am hopeful that the recent Euro crises will prompt the UK to retake back some of its powers that are currently in the hands of Brussels. Europe is not Britain and Britain is not Europe. So our Economic and Political freedoms should be controlled by ourselves. Sovereignty for EU countries!

    ArmA 3 System Requirements

    My current system was ok with ArmA 2 however I will be planning an upgrade after Christmas as there is always a great reduction in prices of components due to sales and new tech being released at the start of the year. Current System: AMD Athlon X2 6200+ (3.0ghz) 8GB DDR2 800mhz 120GB SSD for games 2 x 1GB 8800GTs 2 x 500GB HDDs This system was built in 2008 which makes it 4 years old now, I don't want to simply throw it away. Do you think I could use it as a dedi server for games like ArmA 3, if so how many players do you think I could handle with it on a 60mbps fibre optic connection? Thanks

    Character Defaults: Walk, Weapon Lowered

    Because a keyboard is clunky I feel when moving around in ArmA 2 as infantry or as a pilot. A controller has a good balance between analogue and digital buttons. In my opinion it would be easier to tap a designated button like the X , or Y axis on a controller to raise your gun position than on a keyboard where you might have to do something like "Shift + J" I play ArmA 2 with Xbox 360 controller and I can confirm it supports wired Xbox 360 and wireless controllers, so I would imagine ArmA 3 will continue the support maybe some minor tweaks in relation to these new positions and animations. -- Example -- Walking with gun in semi lowered position. 1/4 forward on left stick position + left stick clicked once ---->>>> Switching to walking gun raised position , all you do is double tap the left stick and it bring the gun up Apologies if it seems confusing the way I have written it,

    Why warfare fails as a game mode

    Warfare in singleplayer was fun for smaller maps in ArmA 2 e.g. Utes. The combat was intense right from the start and you did not notice the inadequecies of the AI in a non combat cycle. Warfare online however I found to be either very fun or bloody painful. This was not due to any of the game mechanics but more to do with : Players and their experience, maturity and communication abilities Servers; having the resources to process the overload as a warfare game progressed Management; admins, preventing disruptions If any of these three things failed then your Warfare game was doomed. The AI in the game would only aggravate any of those problems if they occurred. My 2 cents
