  1. We server hosts are at the mercy of these brainless imps that run scripts that destroy the great game you have created. Will the Beta release come with BattlEye? Sent using Tapatalk/ iPhone with Flashplayer v0.00
  2. I've been watching the last two pages of this thread with much interest. As a user of Rarek's beautiful piece of work on our Arma server I also have a valid concern in this case. The ability to mod the game is the intention of Bohemia. The community can make what they want with the games' code limitations. This is then uploaded onto the server structure and then downloaded as a mission file to our PC. We don't have to grant permission or sign T&C to download mission files. When it's on my machine it's mine. Coding is a talent blessed upon the fortunate and only those that work for game makers are ever paid for their efforts. However, I confessed to Rarek that we were using his mission file. All he asked was that homage to AhoyWorld/ Rarek was maintained. I promised to go one step further and donate some funds to his community (it's coming, Rarek :) ) So we altered the mission with BSM branding and left the salute to Rarek in place. It's the least we can do. What we have altered is an Arma 3 mission file. Rarek created this mission from an Arma 2 mod idea but he didn't rip the code, otherwise someone would rip the Arma 2 Insurgency mod by Veteran Gaming like for like. He had to create it from scratch so how Xeno can state his work has been stolen is beyond me. It's like saying that Dyson have stolen Hoover's idea because they made a machine for sucking dust off the floor!
  3. Would it be possible to introduce the ability to see roles of players in the Players list? This is to identify who squad leaders are, pilots and medics, etc. Is this a possibility?

    [REQUEST] Role icon in Players list

    Changing the blue rectangle would be perfect.
  5. As you can see by the screen shots. Someone has taken it upon themselves to port over the Arma 2 news feature and trashed our server. A server reboot cleared the event so this will mean something to those in the know. It is hoped that the full release will come with protection against acts of this nature. http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/577867923985552009/0107A82E022D2E3B65A46EFEAB4C7A445D21B1A5/ http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/577867923985547480/5FAC622A5C064D85BC9E9BEEC6BAEA7E94C281E2/

    [ALERT] New Server Hack

    Lol thanks for the reply guys.
  7. Our admins are pulling their hair out. What's been said above is true regarding the sensible "nature" of Arma gamers. The majority are good guys and they play the game as it is intended, working together, using comms, playing the objectives, etc. For our community the success of our Arma 3 hosting depends very heavily upon having an RCON program that can be used to keep our server clean. :) British Sergeants' Mess - Very much looking forward to the Beta and full release.

    Arma 3 Alpha questions

    I'm shocked by the amount is disparaging replies there are on this forum when people ask for help. There is on key word on this site, "community." Dictionary Ref: "...........people who are considered as a unit because of their common interests, social group, or nationality" If it makes you feel big and clever to knock people back to Google, well done you. You did your bit for the community. Sent using Tapatalk/ iPhone with Flashplayer v0.00
  9. I find it very frustrating that a squad leader is unable to control who is in his squad or manipulate its soldiers into roles. Example 1. The fire team medic leaves the game. A squad member volunteers to take that role. Why can't the Team Leader switch that players role for them without him having to leave the game. Example 2. Waste of Slot. A squad member refuses to work with the squad thus weakening the unit. A better player is available and willing to take his place. Why can't the TL remove that player and reallocate his slot with the volunteer? Example 3. Key role number 1. The pilot who has been ferrying troops from base to AO and AO to base has to leave. There is a replacement available. Why can't the SL place the pilot in the slot? It is possible? Sent by brasilianfart cloud

    [REQUEST] More control over your squad

    Roger that. I am a server admin and I use the left shift + P to kick (unruly) dudes but hey ho, the issue carried over from Arma 2. I keep forgetting how modifiable the game is. I think this one might not be fixable for the reason you said. Sent by brasilianfart cloud

    Dedicated server - status

    Feedback from our provider. "The Arma 3 VPS has used 732GB (0.73TB) in 12 days and by the looks of it that's increasing. Current usage is about 150GB per day of which I'd estimate 100GB is Arma 3. I'll try and get some more accurate monitoring sorted. " Sent by brasilianfart cloud

    New Update?

    Since the update all of our missions are now broken. I couldn't find the code changes anywhere. Is it only the galken/ ifrit that was changed?
  13. Hi guys, Firstly, I'm loving the game. It offers the MilSim realism that BF2 has but was lost in it's port to BF3. Anyway... I've played Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead for 90 hours so far. Previously I have launched it via Steam. I have launched it via Six Launcher and I have always been able to play. I say play but I have never yet played on two servers that play the same game mode. I have played domination and insurgency but there has always been something different about each server/ game type. Last night I tried to play Arma 2 for 2 hours. None of the usual methods would work and the only success I had was spawning as a raven in a server. What's all that about?! With Arma 3 coming around the corner I am using my time to get familiar with the expected controls and game types via Arma 2, but right now I can't. I can play DayZ no problem. I use my pre-created pre-set and find and join servers without issue. My expansion/beta is currently at r88 v1.62.95208 and trying to launch OA via Six Updater (via the beta preset) does not work either. Any help is greatly appreciated. Right now I am just blown away by the, what seems like, hundreds of variants of Arma 2. Thanks in advance.
  14. Shameful thread revive. I believe it fixed itself.
