I used to love wasteland on chernarus but having come back recently I cant see any servers? There used to be plenty, CCG(?) and others but as far as I can tell its no longer a gamemode that people play, is this the case? I know it sort of went downhill some time ago but thats a shame if it is the case.

What mods would people recommend in conjuction with unsung. Also, and recommended missions for 2 players? Only got myself and 1 mate

Is a new version being worked on? Having tried on multiple terrains it seems missles from planes make no sound when they explode on impact with the terrain.

Ive been trying a few CUP planes, as well as the ARMA3 variant of the A-10 and when on bombing runs, none of these missiles as they hit the ground make an noise at all. This a known issue and is there a fix? Further more when I request CAS they only drop their missiles, how can I get them to use the gun on the front?

Wipeout Plane CBA, CUP, Battle Royale Terrain: Bozcaada No sound on impact. ================ Wipeout Plane No Mods Terrain: Altis Sound works as intended ================ I retested on Bozcaada, with no additional mods except Battle Royale and the sound did still not play. I guess this is a problem with the terrain itself..

My understand is that to a certain extent, Arma like's fast ram. Price/performance on DDR3 seems to peak around 2133 Cas9 I am looking to upgrade my system to DDR4 in the near future but I want the RAM to perform better than the above. I guess I will have to wait a little as there doesnt seem to be any out at the moment. 15CAS/3000Mhz doesnt beat 9CAS/2133Mhz Thus DDR3 is currently better for Arma..

So my console buddy finally got a PC. I am hoping to get him into Arma however I dont want to just stick right into it, I think the pace and complexity will put him off? Can any suggest some fast paced missions we can play together? By fast pace I mean action orientated. I want to wow him.

I will look into this thank you! ---------- Post added at 19:56 ---------- Previous post was at 19:52 ---------- Zeus is an excellent idea! How did I not think of this! Cheers mate! Whilst I am here asking. Obviously I would be running this off of my computer. I can play Arma fine. Just looking for a heads up but will there be much of a negative effect running as a server? I would not have thought so, and as it will most likely just be as and AI my internet should cope fine as well.

Thanks for the suggestions guys but I should probably explain myself a bit better. I would prefer something Scenario based rather than typical multiplayer 'gamemodes' such as KOTH, Wasteland, Battle Royal. I want to slowly phase my mate from these typical 'gamemodes' into co-ordinated objective based gameplay. I'm sure he will take to it and love it as long as I don't just thrust him in head first. He will be all for co-ordinated gameplay, I just dont want to scare him off with prolonged running across vast area's and long periods of no interaction. I actually looked into Insurgency, I used to play it a long time ago on A2 and BF:PR, however when I downloaded the ALiVE Insurgency and tried to host it, you get no AI on your team. Seem's a bit silly 2 of us vs an entire army! as you may have realised by now I am not totally familiar with all the mods and how they work. I preach about co-ordinated gameplay however never really get round to it, until now hopefully! ---------- Post added at 22:07 ---------- Previous post was at 22:06 ---------- I think he will really appreciate missions where CAS and other support roles play a big role. It's great to see all the aspects come together!

The only thing with Wasteland is the gameplay is generally shocking. People tend to just run around aimlessly for hours. I'm looking for something a bit more warfare orientated. I was planning on keeping him away from Wasteland and Life if possible!

Downloaded ALiVE which included Insurgency however it doesnt show in Altis and Stratis, the other two do, Ambush and Sabotage

I guess so, think hes going for 16gb now anyway! As for the GTX yeah I have informed him, 3.5GB still seems like a massive amount of video memory though so cant see this being an issue at all. Could you expand on your point about the CAS? are you saying that it could save up to three frames choosing 9 instead of 10?

Sorry if this is the wrong sub-forum. User Missions didn't seem to be a good place to post. I am quite new to the editor, I have dabbled but never really made anything properly. I have a few idea's but rather than being concerned about how the editor works I am more concerned about the work flow. Like I say I have all these ideas for a MP mission but dont really know where to start. I dont really know what part of creating a mission you would consider the foundations. Or does it not matter that much. Could I just start anywhere such as creating base building functions and go from there..

This may seem stupid but I only thought there was one editor. I didnt realise there is a seperate one for MP where can I find it? I usually save as MP mission in the editor. Thanks for the info, especially that last link!

SSD will come shortly 2133 RAM because of the gains people have seen. What do you guys think about this build for a friend who is looking at getting into ARMA coming over from consoles? Seems solid to be, I assume 8GB ram is enough for the time-being, I was more concerned about good speed and latency (9 CAS) than actual amount.

I have used both 1.4.2 and 1.4.01 and both are giving me the same error

Trying to play some with AllInArma servers, and getting kicked off all of them because the files are not signed, any suggestions? I downloaded AiA myself and it didnt work, so I then did it through Play With Six and it still doesnt work.

Feel like police shouldnt get free stuff. They should have to use the funds from confiscated goods.

Totally agree this could be absolutely insane! T-Rex looks a little small compared to the one in the movie though? I know your still working on it but please try to make the animation transitions as smooth as possible, really helps with immersion! Defo base all your dino's on the movie. We all know they made the velociraptor bigger than it actually is, but that was for entertainment purposes and you should do the same. I would prefer it to be more fun than authentic. PS: Also Jurassic Park T-Rex's look better than all other T-Rexs, no feathers! ---------- This has bigger potential than DayZ! I hope you get yourself a good team, I also think you should have people developing a Jurassic Park map, would literally orgasm coming down in a helo by the waterfall in Arma!

Concentrate on the content itself and then players can make the missions! Would be awesome to make Dino worlds in the editor!

Lately I have been trying everything possible to get the extra performance out of Arma. On single player it is fine, unless you go with ridiculous draw distances then it will run smooth, doubt you will hit 60's but you will be safely above 30FPS. Multiplayer on the other hand is ridiculous. When singleplayer I have most things upped to max, staying safely above 30FPS. However, join a high populated server and that struggles to get out of the 20's. Even changing everything to low/disabled made little difference, 4/5 FPS at most. I would say that it is the hosts, but it is such a common problem it just seems to be how it is. Corsair Vengeance, and until reading the thread you are talking about I was running at 1333. I have upped to 1600 since and would like to try/buy 2133. Going up to 1600 has given a nice little boost in singleplayer, but its just to hard to tell on MP. ---- Currently running.. - i5-3570k OC'ed @4.2ghz - 8gb Vengeance OC'ed 1600 - EVGA GTX 670 2gb

Pretty much the current gen version of my PC, with faster ram. Dont expect to be playing multiplayer over 30fps though.

How is asking for 60frames absolutely pathetic? One thing we should absolutely be able to gurantee when playing games is the ability to play it seamlessly, even if on low quality settings. Lower than 60 FPS makes a massive difference to satisfaction and overall immersion.

Disagree, Altis Life removes organisation/tactical gameplay on a large scale. The RP elements are nice, however it should really still have some sort of warfare background, which would give extra endgame as well. It can be very tedious at times with little to do. That said, il be coming on as a enjoy Altis Life in small doses, yet to find a decent server.

Agreed, it would have been nice for Arma to have something similar, or if not, there needs to be more Workshop integration. Perhaps, the higher quality custom content could be verified and displayed more within the game, similar to the way Rockstar verify custom content on GTAO. Considering the variety of stuff a server could potentially have, perhaps an extra tab on the server list in the bottom right of the screen could display the mods used and a simple download button for each. Dont see why server owners wouldnt be happy to host a FastDL server for their content.
