You might want to make your wording clearer that it isn't for multiplayer use: "It's not possible to use my MOD in private servers without my permission" at the bottom of the armaholic download doesn't really imply this (since it is player-host publicly open without a password co-op mission and not a "private" server ). Oh well, we've all now deleted it since there is no point in using it if we can't spice up the civilian population of our coops - shame but hay-ho it's you mod so your rules. V

Interesting addon, however upon using this in a coop multiplayer we all get spammed every few minutes with red pop up text about "donate if you appreciate the efforts" - any way to disable this as it makes the mod unplayable. Cheers, V (image removed as not needed anymore) this type of stuff pops up every 45-90 seconds in game for all players, makes using your mod impossible. Mission is hosted on a local machine (as in player-host) with only a few women down to spice up the civvie population. Doesn;t seem to stop at all, for the full 45 minutes of the mission we all got spammed with the pop up messages constantly

EDIT; After much searching I was able to fix my problem without installing AceX. If the mission file is binarzied, you can't just simply open the mission.sqm, you would have to launch you game with all dependecies enabled (rolling ace3 back to 3.7), open the mission in the editor, un-check the "binarize on save", save the mission, go to the mission folder, open the mission.sqm in text editor, remove the dependency from the addOns and addOnsAuto (renumbing items if needed since you;re removing the ace_sitting item), save the file, close the game, launch without the dependency, go to the editor load up the mission file, check binarize again, and save, and I think you should be good to go. Personally I really don't see why sitting was moved from ACE3 to the silly seperate mod! I thought the idea of ACE3 was to be modular within one mod (as Jonpas a few posts above indicates!) Cheers, V

Hi, This mod looks really promising at breaking up the 'all male civilian population' experienced in arma: also gives options for the lady of our group. However the requirement of TRYK mod is holding me back as that mod is essentially a dead mod due to author losing source files. Is this mod looking at moving away from that compatibility? or is there a chance for a 'lite' standalone version? (equally on a personal note I've never liked the TRYK mod as it adds too much unnecessary - to me at least - stuff to the virtual aresenal) Cheers, V

I've tried painting the weight to all blue, however it doesn't seem to have changed anything in terms of warping/distortion? I'm not 100% when it comes to o2 so I could be doing something wrong though! V

Gents, I've been trying to work on some new vests for my unit to get away from using reskinned arma 3 ones. However, I'm running into an issue where the vests warp quite dramatically and the shadowing goes to crap. I've tried a different model.cfg and whilst the vest don't warp with it, they are on the floor between the characters legs (and the shadows are still screwed). As such I've gone back to the model.cfg as listed below. Screenshots to show the issue: My model.cfg class CfgSkeletons { class Default { isDiscrete = 1; skeletonInherit = ""; skeletonBones[] = {}; }; class OFP2_ManSkeleton : Default { SkeletonBones[]= { "pelvis","", "spine","pelvis", "spine1","spine", "spine2","spine1", "spine3","spine2", "neck","spine3", "neck1","neck", "head","neck1", "face_hub","head", "face_jawbone","face_hub", "face_jowl","face_jawbone", "face_chopright","face_jawbone", "face_chopleft","face_jawbone", "face_liplowermiddle","face_jawbone", "face_liplowerleft","face_jawbone", "face_liplowerright","face_jawbone", "face_chin","face_jawbone", "face_tongue","face_jawbone", "face_cornerright","face_hub", "face_cheeksideright","face_cornerright", "face_cornerleft","face_hub", "face_cheeksideleft","face_cornerleft", "face_cheekfrontright","face_hub", "face_cheekfrontleft","face_hub", "face_cheekupperright","face_hub", "face_cheekupperleft","face_hub", "face_lipuppermiddle","face_hub", "face_lipupperright","face_hub", "face_lipupperleft","face_hub", "face_nostrilright","face_hub", "face_nostrilleft","face_hub", "face_forehead","face_hub", "face_browfrontright","face_forehead", "face_browfrontleft","face_forehead", "face_browmiddle","face_forehead", "face_browsideright","face_forehead", "face_browsideleft","face_forehead", "face_eyelids","face_hub", "face_eyelidupperright","face_hub", "face_eyelidupperleft","face_hub", "face_eyelidlowerright","face_hub", "face_eyelidlowerleft","face_hub", "eyeleft","face_hub", "eyeright","face_hub", "leftshoulder","spine3", "leftarm","leftshoulder", "leftarmroll","leftarm", "leftforearm","leftarmroll", "leftforearmroll","leftforearm", "lefthand","leftforearmroll", "lefthandring","lefthand", "lefthandring1","lefthandring", "lefthandring2","lefthandring1", "lefthandring3","lefthandring2", "lefthandpinky1","lefthandring", "lefthandpinky2","lefthandpinky1", "lefthandpinky3","lefthandpinky2", "lefthandmiddle1","lefthand", "lefthandmiddle2","lefthandmiddle1", "lefthandmiddle3","lefthandmiddle2", "lefthandindex1","lefthand", "lefthandindex2","lefthandindex1", "lefthandindex3","lefthandindex2", "lefthandthumb1","lefthand", "lefthandthumb2","lefthandthumb1", "lefthandthumb3","lefthandthumb2", "rightshoulder","spine3", "rightarm","rightshoulder", "rightarmroll","rightarm", "rightforearm","rightarmroll", "rightforearmroll","rightforearm", "righthand","rightforearmroll", "righthandring","righthand", "righthandring1","righthandring", "righthandring2","righthandring1", "righthandring3","righthandring2", "righthandpinky1","righthandring", "righthandpinky2","righthandpinky1", "righthandpinky3","righthandpinky2", "righthandmiddle1","righthand", "righthandmiddle2","righthandmiddle1", "righthandmiddle3","righthandmiddle2", "righthandindex1","righthand", "righthandindex2","righthandindex1", "righthandindex3","righthandindex2", "righthandthumb1","righthand", "righthandthumb2","righthandthumb1", "righthandthumb3","righthandthumb2", "weapon","spine1", "launcher","spine1", "camera","pelvis", "leftupleg","pelvis", "leftuplegroll","leftupleg", "leftleg","leftuplegroll", "leftlegroll","leftleg", "leftfoot","leftlegroll", "lefttoebase","leftfoot", "rightupleg","pelvis", "rightuplegroll","rightupleg", "rightleg","rightuplegroll", "rightlegroll","rightleg", "rightfoot","rightlegroll", "righttoebase","rightfoot", }; }; }; class CfgModels { class Default { sections[] = {}; sectionsInherit=""; skeletonName = ""; }; class Osprey_CR : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; class Osprey_GP : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; class Osprey_HMG : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; class Osprey_M : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; class Osprey_MGP : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; class Osprey_P : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; class Osprey_RA : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; class Osprey_SLP : Default { skeletonName="OFP2_ManSkeleton"; sections[]= { }; }; }; Any help on this is appreciated as I'm pretty stuck on this and can;t figure out any way of getting thigns working as they should. Cheers, V

Sorry for replying in someone elses thread: however Im after exactly the same fix - care to share? First time making 3d models and have quite a nice vest made that simply sits on the ground! Cheers, V edit: so, managed to figure out how to open property: ctl+1 autocenter is on 0 canocclude is on 0 canbeoccluded is on 1 However they still appear on the ground rather than in the currect place

Public Operation HALLOWEEN THUNDER - 30th & 31st October 2015 20:00 GMT (London time) onwards Dear All, The 53rd are hosting an open Halloween event on Friday and Saturday evenings starting at 20:00 GMT. This event is open for all 53rd members and public players. It is a CO-OP Survival mission to follow the Halloween theme: it will be game-mastered by a 53rd member who will be creating the objectives and giving everyone a challenging time before they can finally attempt an evacuation of the cursed island. In order to participate you will need a small mod collection found through play with six here: https://play.withsix.com/arma-3/collections/1Bql6ZOgpUGEAmvtbBIA5Q/53rd-Public-Server-Pack or direct PWS download here: pws://?c=1Bql6ZOgpUGEAmvtbBIA5Q This pack is 140mb and consists of the following mods: Community base addons shacktac fireteam HUD Shacktac Stamina Bar Task Force Radio Zombies & Demons You can join us on our TS channel here: 85.236.100.85:20577 Both nights should prove to be entertaining: just make sure you bring a spare pair of underpants!

Any questions please feel free to contact me via our forums found at www.53rdairinfantry.com Cheers, V Mission INFO: Operation HALLOWEEN THUNDER Recently a fungal disease broke out in the small Greek Island chain of Altis and Stratis. Despite the best efforts of the Greek medical teams and a World Health Organisation task force the disease has both spread and mutated. The patients display severe rashes before entering a high fever. Once the fever starts it is rapidly followed by liquidation of internal organs and bleeding from the orifices. Worryingly the disease has not stopped at killing its victims: shortly after death patients reanimate as mindless killing machines. The more recently a victim has reanimated to more rapidly it can move; so be extremely vigilant of the freshly dead. Early encounters indicate that the reanimated can be stopped by conventional weaponry, with headshots the most efficient method. We do not know why this is happening: as a small Police unit we have limited assets to deal with this situation. It is vital we scavenge supplies during this operation as we cannot estimate how long it will take us to reach the evacuation zone: if it is still standing.

Nope, all of your units are showing on IND for me with this latest release. Previously there was a mix of OPFOR and IND as I was using two different ones to simulate drug cartel conflict whilst BLUFOR (my unit) performed objectives against both factions. V EDIT: Shots from the editor: Appreciate the mod and the effort that goes into it! V

Thanks for the update however it seems to break missions using the mod - seems that you've moved some forces that were previously OPFOR to IND. Cheers, V
