Might want to work on your grammer first if you intend anyone to read this normally.

Let me start off, GREAT maps! I actually started hosting this server with the Air Base DM4 and people really seemed to like it. I have some things I would like to adress: - Is the air strike supposed to be visible falling from the sky? Also I tend to notice it isn't always 100% accurate but that might just be me. - Could you add a option for map voting? - Could you add a option to keep restarting maps so you can basically run it all day straight without needing to press restart. - Parameter's saving? - AI seems to be stuck or sometimes glitch out of the fight area. - Now that we have the Darter can you add that as a "Mega" kill streak and actually shoot with it? Might be over the top again.. - More killstreaks? (Call in multiple mortars) Air ship? just bringing some ideas. (Might be over the top but maybe call in a Ghosthawk let you get in (you first get tp'ed to the heli spot) The heli follows the same line everytime over the battlefield, And you arm the gunner seat, let the heli do 3 circles and then fly off and you get tp'ed to a spawn spot) I hope you can do something with this. You are great at making these. Please continue updating them:) Also I hope I am permitted to host these maps if you're ok with that! (Hosting as a server not as a download) Thanks!

OK. getting real frustrated here. I have verified all the files, reinstalled the game and yet it keeps popping up whenever I try to join a game that It failed. I have installed a new Battleye and still no luck. What do I do to fix this? Thanks. It's all the server's I tend to join. Thank you!

Hi all! I'm making this mission where I need to check if a helicopter has been landed on the given spot. A normal trigger would go off even if it's hovering over it. So I named the helicopter "heli" and put this in my trigger on act field: isTouchingGround Heli; Now for some reason it triggers instantly.. anyone knows what the problem is? Also is there any way to let's say you place 5 Blufor members and want a trigger to trigger when they have entered the helicopter. Thanks. :D

Wait.. first you're talking about having 4 folders, and suddenly 3rd person view...

Will there be any way to see the statistics you have? Like the amount of enemies killed, hours flown in a helicopter bombs detonated etc. It would't be necessarily global as long as you can see your personal ones. Searched the forums, did not find this question. I made a ticket of this http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=9740 Thanks.

I can't wait no longer! Not sure what to do first! I think ill just fly around for 3 hours straight exploring.

First of all, Why am I starting this topic, Many people here seem to have noticed that some aspects of the game like shooting bullets to far makes it sometimes hard to see the bullet impacts. Or the impacts from the helicopter rounds seem to just magically disappear in the ground. Creating such a high scale quality impact of a mortar for example will give you that amazing thrill, you should think "OH Shit!" and not "Cute explosion". Things have also been discussed about the "random destruction?" like in Battlefield 3 etc. But from what I remember that won't be happening to Arma III If I'm right. What do you guys think about all the effects Arma has right now? Here are some example's: M-198 155mm Howitzer Now please mind that such a big artillery isn't in the game YET(?). http://i.imgur.com/74ECSSp.jpg (159 kB) A artillery or bomb strike? A tank and crew members burning explicit image removed EDIT, Now this is what a explosion should look like! http://youtu.be/Xa5oZKpRQa0?t=10s I hope everyone understands what I'm trying say with this topic. I'm just giving some examples and would greatly appreciate what you're opinion is! Basxt.

Dude. This is insanely helpful! Thanks! Server admins better see this because it seems like a must have! Great!

Yeah, So i'm making this mission where I want to be picked up by a helicopter and noticing when I entered. After I have entered I would like it to fly to the end destination and unload all men and then fly away. Is there any way to do this? I have searched the whole forum for this answer and didn't find it. Thanks!

Wow. I tried that but the helicopter just stays in the air:/ ---------- Post added at 20:51 ---------- Previous post was at 20:29 ---------- So this doesn't seem to be working as the heli just stays flying still at one spot. 1. Go into the Editor, and place a civilian down at the Airport and make it "Player" (you will be watching what happens) 2. Place a BLUFOR Soldier unit down somewhere nearby and create a waypoint for the BLUFOR Soldier called "Get In" and put it a little bit far away. 3. Now, put a helicopter unit down on the map, the one that carries troops (Is it called the MH-16?) 4. Create a waypoint for the helicopter called "Load" and put it near the "Get In" waypoint. 5. Create another waypoint for the helicopter called "MOVE" and place it somewhere far far away. 6. Now, go to the Synchronize Tool (I think you just need to push F5) and CONNECT the "Load" and "Get In" Waypoints. It should be a Solid Blue Line that connects them. 7. Preview the mission. The helicopter should pick the soldier up and fly off into the sunset (For your mission, you will be playing as the soldier)

Great idea. I hope BIS likes this:)

Obvious troll is obvious. You are in the wrong place for these posts. And it is alpha stage!

Anyone Else's opinion? :)

That's great! Should definitely be added!

Same for me mate. When i turn on the 7.1 the surround sound one I am not hearing nearly as much surround sound as stereo mode. Also when using the standard rifle as blufor and spam shooting makes it sound HORRIBLE. Ear rape to it's finest. But for the rest the G930 is awesome:)

Hello, Yesterday I played a map whenever you die you respawn near your death point or close to your team members. I know how to do respawns but to make you respawn near your death point is something I would like to know and I guess more people would like to know too. Thanks!

Yes it's ridiculous really the performance is way better!

The branch changelog says this: 21-03-2013 Staging the default branch update for tomorrow's deployment - changelog then

Advanced Loadout What has been bothering me is the fact they call the editor "easy and efficient map making" But one thing that I think should really be added is a option to give your load-out a specific customization. I am requesting this idea so the needs of making strings or codes for a advanced load-out would't be necessary. So what I mean is let's say you want to place a Opfor with a specific weapon and gear inventory. You would simply press the "inventory" button and you will see the same as when you press ingame "I". From that point you can select the main weapon by double clicking your main weapon slot and selecting all possible weapons for that slot. Same goes for your helmet, all possible helmets will be shown and you press the one it should have. These load-outs should be save-able so it can be easy used later on. Another example would be cars. Double click on the Loud-out, en select what items there should be inside the car. I hope this is well explained and I hope someone can confirm that this actually should be really helpfull.

Will do;) Thanks!

Is there a possibility to disable the HUD temporarily? I wan't to take some nice pictures out there but the crosshair and the info bar of weapons/ammo is blocking my vision. Hope someone knows what to do.

What do you guys think about this idea that you select --> editor --> multiplayer editor. This would be allowing to host a map and edit it together with your friend who wants to help. It would be exactly the same as the sp editor but know you just have someone who places things on the map as well. This would allow much faster and easier map making without merging things together. What do you guys think about this? Thanks
