Finally tackling my own dialog! Could use a little help though.

[Finally tackling my own dialog! Could use a little help though.]

Hello, I was having the same problem and switched to using RscButtonMenu. I set up the defines however I am still missing something as I get a "No Entry <path>.colorBackgroundFocused" message. I have hunted everywhere for anything on colorBackgroundFocused and haven't found any mention of it.

Would it be possible to get a copy of your list of defines for this resource?

[Requesting automatic installation of Army of the Czech Republic Light]

Seeing as the other DLC packages are available to everyone it only seems right that ACR be made in the same way if possible. Would give us some new vehicles to play with in public servers :D

Nice, saved me a lot of time.

Thanks ... again.

[Made mission with unwanted Addon]

Hi, so i have been making a simple mission for myself and others to play. It was working fine, myself and one other person had a quick test and all was well.

But we then decided we wanted a few more armored vehicles so i went back to add more. At this point i forgot i had the CTRG addon on for another mission and accidently placed a unit from it and saved and exported. So of course when my friend tried to join again he couldnt because of the addon was required.

I have since removed the vehicle from the mission but it still requires the mission still requires the addon to play. Is there anyway i can remove this dependency, maybe in the mission.sqm file?

[Unit spawn in set position then random respawn]

Thanks for taking the time to look over my file and making the bug report. Will change back to the stable build later on, guess ill just have to wait for the official release of the Zues DLC.

[Unit spawn in set position then random respawn]

Sorry man, still not working, I am getting that spawn menu straight away as soon as i start the mission :(

I am using some other addons - TAW viewdistance, Virtual Ammo System and IgiLoad.

Now I wont be able to edit anymore, going to bed :P, but I will PM you a link to my dropbox with my mission so if you have the time you can have a look. Thanks again

[Unit spawn in set position then random respawn]

Ok, I'm kinda new to this so I'm probably not explaining myself probably :P. I guess the best way to explain it would be by example. The closest I could get would be the TAW domination mode in arma 2. When you connect to the server it plays that little music and zooms in on your player at a premade location by the mission creator, you are then able to get a loadout and go on to complete objectives. Once you die however you then get the option to spawn at the default location, in a medic tent at the base or at one of the mobile HQ's. You select one of them and you spawn there.

That is essentially what I am aiming for but if thats not possible than thats ok. Oh and thanks for the help so far :P

[Unit spawn in set position then random respawn]

Unfortunately that still doesn't work as I intended as I get an error come up on start saying "Error undefined variable in expression: playerUnits" and then it brings up the menu for players to choose where to spawn.

[Unit spawn in set position then random respawn]

I hadnt tried that but i just edited the mission and put in a few markers like you said. I tried it with both methods set up in the description.ext file.

So with these lines:

respawn = BASE;

respawndelay = 10;

what happens now is that they spawn where i placed them but when they respawn they automatically spawn at the next marker with no choice in the matter.

Now if i put in:

respawnTemplates[] = {"MenuPosition"};

What will happen is when the mission starts, all units choose where to spawn from the markers i placed in the menu but not at the starting position i have placed

[Unit spawn in set position then random respawn]

Hi, I am making a multiplayer mission where at the start all blufor units spawn in a set position given by me. Then once they are killed or die I want them to be able to select a location from the respawn template and spawn there.

So in my description.ext file I have:

respawn = BASE;

respawndelay = 10;

Which lets them spawn on my set position at the start but then once killed they only respawn at the "respawn_west" marker and dont get a choice of where to spawn.

But if i change it to:

respawn = BASE;

respawndelay = 10;

respawnTemplates[] = {"MenuPosition"};

Then at the start they get the spawn menu straight away and don't spawn where I placed them in the editor.

[Alt+tab causes FPS drops]

Hi, i have been playing arma 2 for about 2 years now and i seem to be having a strange problem that I have started noticing whenever i alt+tab out of game and back in. I recently started playing with some friends in the multiplayer and using Teamspeak to communicate, the problem is when i alt+tab out of the game to check a PM in TS and go back to the game i notice my FPS drops down to around 10 sometimes even lower. It will then stay around there unless I restart the game.

I usually get around 25fps on average which is fine for me. Below is my basic PC spec.

Intel Core i3 2100

8gb Ram

MSi Radeon 6770

Windows 7

I have also been using MSI afterburner to monitor my system ingame, when I alt+tab out and at normal idle status. It seems that whenever i alt+tab out of game and back in, my GPU usage drops down and levels at around 25-30% when normally it might be 60-80% or higher. Again, only restarting the game will bring my FPS back up to a playable level.

Any help is appreciated and if you need more info i am happy to provide.
