Apparently most people shot with handguns survive ---------- Post added at 17:14 ---------- Previous post was at 16:50 ---------- All a hollow point does is expand making the wound channel wider and increasing the chance the bullet will hit blood vessels etc. They don't fragment or explode unless you are talking about some exotic types like hydroshock rounds.

I feel the same way but look forward to mods using the new engine, that's the great thing about ARMA :)

Hi Is it possible to use other mods like ASR_AI or the Shacktac Hud? When I launch AIA via Play With Six and look in expansions (in game) the options for Shacktac Hud and ASR are not there even though they've been installed. Cheers Nikko

this :bounce3:

I think its pretty good but it would be helpful if when you hover over a button it gave you a description of what it does.

Same here and equally although none get high than 40% in usage.

Hi all I hope I have put this in the right place. I have a couple of questions I would like to ask about the ASR_AI and TPWCAS mods and also a question about editing one of the standard COOP missions in ARMA 3. 1. How can I tell that my mods are actually working? I installed the mods but did not make any changes to the files so they are exactly as they were when I downloaded them. I have seen the enemy AI using smoke and also their accuracy seems toned down so I think the ASR_AI mod is working but I find it hard to tell if TPWCAS is doing anything as it seems to take a lot of fire to suppress the enemy. Is there a quick and easy way I can make sure it is working? 2. If I have these two mods running and start a coop when my friend joins the mission will he automatically download the mods when he joins? Last night I did this, he also joined the mission (having not installed any mods) and he could also see smoke being deployed by EI. 3. Is there any way I can edit the CO-OP mission? This is one of the standard ones that came with ARMA 3 but I cannot load it in the editor. Thanks in advance.

The problem occurred before I used the addons but the fact that using a save game caused my addons to switch off made me think there is a bug/problem with the revert to save point function. Now I always start each mission from scratch and haven't had the problem since.

I think it is related to the save game points. I noticed after installing some mods that if I reverted to a save point (rather than restarting the game from the beginning) all my mods switched off. I then tested by playing the game until I was killed and then always starting a new game and I haven't had either problem since.

You should try United Operations they are more serious and tactical than a domination server but there's no requirement to play a set amount of missions per week/month etc. They have their faults like anyone but it would be a good start if you are interested in taking it a step further and you can pick it up when ever you like and not be tied down to a regular appearance.

I was always impressed how Bohemia would frequently release beta patches for ARMA 2. I used to play a certain flight simulator and the Devs would just vanish for months without a word while we waited for the patch that was going to be round the corner.

Hi all I'll attach a screenshot as it explains the problem better than I can articulate. Basically I've been playing the combined operation showcase and suddenly found after quite a few games that when I die I no longer get the box bottom right giving me the choice to go back to the main page or revert to a saved point. I reinstalled the entire game and deleted the cache etc and it worked again for a while but now the problem is back. I haven't seen anyone else mention this so I could post it to the bug tracker but I thought I'd ask if anyone else has experienced this yet? Basically I have to CTRL ALT DELETE and kill Arma and then restart. Also I am not sure how to enable error logging so if anyone can point me in the right direction I'll be able to upload an error log as well.

Yep dslyecxi's videos are a great way of showing people what is possible in ARMA although the best ones he has are still ARMA 2. Also a squad called VOLCBAT have some excellent videos...search youtube for those.
