    Prarie Fire discussion

    I'm only 2 hours in, server was slow to download off steam, and I can say full price was worth it for the map alone. Playing escape with 10 players. Map is ~ 3x times Tanoa, but quality has improved immensely! Completely worth it.

    There is already an ESCAPE mission ported! You can play it with a good team on Outkasts or other clan server! Or SP by hosting the ESCAPE mission on LAN yourself. I recommend to play with a good coop team. PS: I just bought it! I looked at the MAP and contents, and I felt it was worth the full price, just like Tanoa! I pickedup all the other DLC I didn't get or needed just to support the other cDLC teams. In these times, I felt ~ 20 USD is a small price to pay (compared to movies for enjoyment hours) and to support the people and their families!

    Can someone advise the TOTAL HD SSD space with this DLC installed? I need to figure out if I have to get a new SSD or not! My ARMA drive is full!

    If it can be enabled via ACE Interaction or vanilla interaction, that would be great!!!

    Watch this video! OMG! ... that first few minutes blew my mind already... We have wanted that for ARMA 3 and DayZ forever!!! I'm waiting for my regular server ops to confirm if they will be launching this. At least an ESCAPE mission!!!

    There is no SP? Please tell me there is at least a MP campaign like Vietcong 2003: Or like Shellshock Nam 67 but with ARMA detail and accuracy! That is all I want! Maybe a full stack MP mission from the NVA and VC side as well!

    Oh yeh! COOP = Ravage Meat Farming! BR = Ravage Chicken Dinner! Mission names done! Someone get coding! :P

    There is an ARMA discord?! Do tell! This 1000% from an historical accuracy aspect. Question: Is this being made by the Unsung team? If so, I would buy it out of principle alone to support them. But the new content looks fairly tasty so far.

    Questions: SOG Prairie Fire

    I wanted to ask is this mod also being developed by the Unsung team? If so, I would buy it in principle to support them.

    Ravage

    Now make a COOP version with twice the chicken, rabbit or sheep or even HUMAN meat we need to win! Or a FFA Battle Royale version with each player needing X to win!

    Body Armor Math

    Goto STEAM WORKSHOP and lookup AAPM - That has simulated body armor with full inserts. I used this mod with compatibility patches in single player and it is super hard. Next load up ACE and Universal Ammo System and it will be about balanced. I think this is what you to simulate relative ARMOR values. I wish more MP servers would run it but it is really for those hardcore ACE type players.
  12. Goto your ARMA GAME folder, then this folder: C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\Userconfig\tpw_mods\ If your ARMA 3 game was installed on C drive. If not, goto the right drive where ARMA 3 was installed. Then open the TPW_MODS.hpp file, it is a text file, edit it and change the number 1 to 0 (zero) to disable the features you want. Set it back it to 1 to enable it.

    Much lagging need help...

    Welcome to ARMA forums. You should check what SPEED your RAM is at and what is your CPU's MAX TURBO speed. Those 2 things will affect ARMA performance tremendously. Also, check to make sure your CPU cooling is adequate at MAX TURBO speeds. If it overheats, the CPU will slow down to maintain the heat limit.
  14. @Mahatma GandhiWhat is the rest of this system? Can you out the details? If we can use old system parts to offset the CPU, then it would still be worth it to go Ryzen as we know in the LONG TERM, the CPU still has a lot of untapped performance over current Intel CPUs in CPU bound games and applications.

    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    What is your native language? If you type in ESCAPE, you can sort by LOWEST PING to find a server closer to you. They may be speaking your native language. Enjoy!
  16. I just saw this video and thought of this mod to create a new game mode. It came from Halo but was remade for Gmod/Half Life 2. Could be Escape the Giant over a VR course for performance!

    Ravage

    I thought the zombies would be attracted to glow sticks or flares? If not , you can try a flash bang mod to see if it will work on the zeds in the first place before crafting such an item.
  18. Comparing this to Oldbear's 3600 and 3600x results: Nearly double the AVERAGE FPS Nearly double the MINIMUM FPS More than double the peak FPS, but this is the least important! AMD Ryzen 3 while expensive, completely worth it for the hardcore ARMA or cpu bound game player. But the Intel 10x00 series a better value right this moment.

    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    Glad you are enjoying ARMA with RHS. That is almost a perfect combo to me. If you want to learn more, I suggest you play ESCAPE online missions with basic and RHS modded versions. Just type in ESCAPE into the filter box when you search for online games. I play on Outkasts servers all the time or sometimes on Salty Dogs. It is a COOP game and lets you team up with humans vs the AI. One of the BEST ways to learn about the game and all of it's good and quarkyness!

    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    Ah, true and thanks for advising everyone! Every time a new mod update comes out, it is best to use it as is to allow other mods to update for compatibility. I did try Escape for Tarkvo sounds. REALLY good. There was a another mod from Dusty that was awesome but it is probably not compatible anymore due to being outdated.
  21. A mod that allows player to move like this. Can be a few cans and backpack with fuel tank for cosmetics.

    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    RHS has one of the best in game sounds. If you need echo, add Enhanced Soundscape from Steam Workship since it was made by the same sound creator! If you want to match RHS audio back to Vanilla ARMA 3, use DynaSound 2.0. It still works but may be slightly outdated. JSRS is a good alternative with great environmental sounds, so try it to see which version you like more.
  23. Diable the HUD feature by setting it to 0 (zero) inside the hpp file. @ TPW - can you add variables to the zombie spawner so we can add zombies to the horde that do not have unit class names with zombie? Ravage names it's units with rvg. If I run TPW with Ravage, Ravage sets all of their zombies at renegades, so it will attack everything. This mod sets it to the opposite to Blue or RedFor so Ravage zombies end up fighting it out with TPW Max zombies! If we can add the RVG_* variable, then we can group it to the same side via TPW mod. Lastly, can you create a version of the skirmish or zombie script where we can define boss monsters or other monsters? If we can set group count such as 1-x (1 is good for a huge boss for example) and allow us to manually set the side, then we can control how they would react. I wanted to eventually add johnnyboy's or aliens or drongo's monsters to a single player experience, but adding to one side skirmish creates a squad of them! Kinda weird to see 6 Max Jason monsters for example. Multiple squads of 1 would have felt more at home with a check to keep it from repeating too much. Just thinking ahead for Halloween or a future Purge scenario!

    Ravage

    So I was playing Ravage on both Donnie and other DayZ type ARMA 3 RAVAGE servers and I had 2 ideas for MP Survival mode or persistent servers: 1) Make the landscape objects into small hidden storage space by "crafting" or virtually cutting a hole into it. Think huge tree bark, stumps, rocks, or other larger "minimum x radius sized landscape objects", barrels and etc... that would be "operated on" with a knife, axe or other tool type object. Then we hide or stash some loot to be accessed later. I had this idea while watching Devil's Rejects when Otis took 2 hostages to go "dig up some guns". I mean, why do we HAVE to build a base or use a tent that is a huge target? Why can't we hide guns under rocks "virtually" or in a barrel or dumpster? Of course, other players can "find" these stashes if they knew where to look or just render damage to the stored items over time if not retrieve for game balance and DB cleanup for example. 2) Another idea and this is more a space saving idea: Compatibility with these melee weapons mods so that it can act as both TOOLS and Weapons! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1453659903&searchtext=melee https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1235058999&searchtext=melee https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2291129343&searchtext=melee Knives can be weapon and do knive "tool" things like cut animal, cloth, etc... AX can be weapon and chop wood Sword can be both without having to carry BOTH a tool knife AND another melee weapon. Just consolidate the classes so long as the player has it on their body, vest or bagpack to double use. It would allow the player to do more with less. I am unsure if Ravage is still in active development, and I saw a ton of mods for DayZ SA but I still like the flexibility of ARMA 3 with Ravage more. Maybe DAYZSA or ARMA 4 RAVAGE have more memory to allow bigger functional arrays.

    co10 Escape

    I think there is something off about the mod or the config.cpp files are not listing the vehicles names correctly. I tested it by loading ARMA into VR map with the mod, dropped each vehicle with crew onto the map then highlighted the names, and copy and pasted it into the unitclasses.sqf in the missions SUB FOLDED de-pbo'ed. Then loaded the mission in SP or MP mode. SP would throw up the error, MP would just hang. I will check it one vehicle at time to see which ones vehicles work or not. Thank you for the help!
