Had a good roll wth a friend on the slingloading yesterday. quite amuzing ^.^ firts we attached a Hatchbakc sport to a A-168 with a 100 meter cable and took of in the A-168. ths was very amuzing! though we manage to hit the A-168 with the sport on 300 altitude. sharp cornors with this is a no go xD next we tried to attach a human to the A-168. my friend wassn't happy with that i can tell you that :P after that we tried to lift a offroad with a UH-80 and while it was still on the ground. we used the settMass command to increse its weight over 5000. thaat was pretty funny. the effects it has if you manage to lift something over the max weight limit is quite interesting. you can't lift it att all but your chopper olmost get pulled back hovering is okay thoug! after that we went and lift a Hatchback sport and attached multiple sports to the lifted one on diffrent lenghts. and this was somethng i was most impressed by. as the UH-80 has a max lift of 4t and the sport weights 1090t we could lift the first. lift the second on 30 meters, lift the third on 40 meters and the rope broke once we where at the fourth one @ 60 meters(4th one was about 5 meters off the ground) by doing this i started to cry because this is the first ever lift option i see in aal of ArmA that is so based on RealLife! just AWESOME difficulty = perfect usablety = perfect Multiplayer = sometimes a bit withdesync but further perfect

try typing in on the top: private ["_first","_second","_this"]; this should define the variable. atleast this is wat works for me when i'm using local variable's.

:cry2: can't stop crying thats how happy I'm..... waited for this about.... to much time. no more very bad looking pole's outa your chopper with a vehice underneath it or a vehicle floating in the air SO HAPPY!

I could make my friends find my host by enabling DMZ for my Tower. You can enable DMZ by going onto your Router. look for Firewall or routing and see if you have DMZ there. make sure the Connect IP is your main IP and the report to IP is your tower that way all the Internet traffic will go to your pc and your friends will find it

here are my 5 Entries :D hope you enjoy them http://s502.photobucket.com/user/kbbw1/library/Future%20Rebel%20Soldiers?sort=3&page=1

Hey there a question I keep getting is with the Paris class frigate. is it only going to be a stationary object (like a flying building) or are you planning on making it a moveble like a gaint ship in the air? also the weapons on it just deco or are you guys planning on making it real weapons? Looks amazing so far the unsc is the kind of faction that completly misses on ArmA 3!!!!

that probably means that you don't have the DLC's like British Armed Forces or Private Military Company. the servers might use the full versions and this will mean that you will only see the light versions of it. (might also be that they use the Army of the Czech Republic DLC where there is no official Light version from) maybe when you buy those DLC's you might have less problems

Voted!

you should buy it on steam because ArmA 2 is not supported anymore as of end July because Gamespy closed down. OA/CO is still supported by the steam browser but only if you have it on Steam. if you buy the disk versions you won't be able to play on server with the proper BattleEye anti hack/cheat but on unprotected servers where hackers can do there things without anyone stopping them. Also i advice you to put your RAM a bit up when you consider that OA/CO takes about 2 GB of RAM and your system and everything i suggest you take another 3 GB so you have 6 that should do it

Thats of how they are set to with the standard settings. if you make a custom one and put everything with shooting to ace they will do the 360 no scope headshot with a PO7 on 2 klicks ;)

you have to create a modded version of aircrafts and change the maxspeed of it as far as I know if youopen the CFG viewer and look at on of the aircrafts you should see it some where. note that you can't edit it in the cfg viewer you will have to get the file's and change it in there

I would just stay with BiS just for creating this game ^^ I've 700+ hours on A2, 600+ on OA and 500+ on A3 so far that is more than all other games of mine combined When i play a game like CoD and BF i play for 3-6 hours than i have the campaing finished and thats it because i hate the MP of that (really not a PvP person) this is the only game where i can keepplaying because there is something new everyday. Also I'm tottaly not disapointed in ArmA 3 the gear system, driving system, fatigue system, AFM, Inertia, everything is just amazing and i keep on having fun with it because it challenged me! 1st week of A3 couldn't even see the enemy's, couldn't drive vehicle's ect. 1 week befor fatigue could shoot a target in an instant on 2 klicks away fatigue enabled back to week 1! AFM can't fly heli's anymore xD i don't know how but i made 5 frontflips, 5 backflips and about 20 sideflips with a blackfoot before chrashing so awesome best way to day ;) so it keeps challeging me to lesrn everything overnew wich is in my opinion a good thing because it keeps making you better i could do with an nice official map like NY or LA maybe even HongKong or Tokyo massive CQB maps ^^

I know tha say3d only does it fora sertain range and the further you go away the more silent i goes. PlayMusic or PlaySound should work perfectly never had anyproblems with that

1 thing is for sure ofcoarse the AI cheats i mean they ave aimbot xD they can do the CoD 360 no scope headshot with a PO7 on 2 klicks distance

I always laugh when I come online and I see post like these.... For starters this game was NEVER intended to be like CoD or BF where you can run 5 laps around the map and still do a no scope headshot on 2 klicks.... so for that reason the fatigue and inertia is perfect. If you can't stand the fatigue just like tons of people try to explain here (even BiS posted about it on the wiki ^^) you can disale it on your missions... But! the fatigue system actually learns you how to make proper tactical decisions. by example if you have to go 10 km and you don't have a vehicle/air taxi aviable learn to not just run all the time (wanna see you run that long with 40 - 80 KG on you) but take a simple course like run 2 KM walk 1 KM. before you go and try to attack like Rambo try to sit down hidden for the enemys for a minute or so. and look into it if your gear is right for larger distance traveling..... the standard BiS loadout is actually desined to be perfect for loads of walking and small firefights. otherwise they could have given you 15 mags, 10 satchels ect. so... there is really nothing to complain about ya know...... either learn to live with it or disable it for your missions

this is done to make it easier for server admins and moderators ingame. its a major hasle to have to type a name that has special chras in it (because some keyboards don't even have them) and to make sure the servers are nicly moderated this was done

PWS works if you go to game settings and untick launch with Launcher thingie

Hey there BIS developers! Nice of you to make sure we can't choose anymore to either launch the launcher or play the game whitout! Launcher looks nice and stuf! But PLEASE make sure that it works befor ;) Current issuese I have with it: Steam is always ofline in it (but im NOT playing in ofline mode at all believe me i checked) Launcher crashes when i click Launch. I would add the mdmp and RPT if i knew where to put it... please fix this! KBBW

sorry was still on the old version with the Assasinate mission will try the new version again today. MHQ: The MHQ is created for each person apart (last time i played atleast) because of that other people where unable to teleport to it and could not even see the Ammobox that was created. maybe an Idee that you make it that only a commander slot can create a MHQ and deploy/undeploy it making it a moblie teleport for the rest of the team?

Sorry for the late reaction. we only had issues witht the assassination mussion because the target trigger is client based meaning that each time someone enters the Area trigger for him to spawn he will spawn again other missions work fine so far

hey there again. had a big test with my clan yesterday on or dedi servers. we encountered some major issues mostly related to BTC revive and the respawn script. -some of the players where down but could not be revived because the options didn't show. -half of the players didn't get the respawn button making them unable to respawn if they where completly alone. (they had to wait about 500 seconds for the revive timer to run out) - heli crash script is nice but it has to be made server side not client side. after a chopper explodes the flames and smoke stay there unless you reconect. -reconecting breaks the support module making it impossible to call arty, taxi or CAS -MHQ needs to be made global not local. people are having a hard time getting back to the battlefield after respawn with no proper pilot ad are getting shot out of the air when they paradrop. -halo jump script is nice BUT the landing is impossible. you won't land on the spot where you want to. (the option to cut the parachute also doesn't work. after you cut it on landing you get put into another one) I agree with the previous post about removing VAS and only using arsenal. just move it from the flagpole to the crates. I also advice to use a diffrent revive script/ respawn menu as this one is pretty broken maybe this one it is always trying and changing with revive scripts still love the missions its just not so much fun if you have to wait 500 sec to play again...

Hey there. first of all LOVE the mission its really nice and smooth. But i think i might have discovered a bug. after testing if we could use it to play with friends and with clan members we discoverd that if you die/ go outside of the area on the defence mission the defence mission breaks. I couldn't manage to activate it again and was also inable to activate the other defend missions. (was this intentional? or did i acctually discover someething??) further it seems that the BIS spawn backpacks (i.e. backpack Dome, backpack sleepingbag) breaks the respawn i hope you find this info usefull! cheers, KBBW

Hello there BIS Staff, and Community modders. I post this thread because of a point that I'm having in ArmA 3. First of all i want to say LOVE THE GAME!!!!! for me personally its way better than any of the Big Shot multi bilion games like COD or BF. I also like everything that is released for it so far VR, bootcamp, DEV branch advanced helicopter flight denamics and I'm looking forward to the Marksman DLC allot! BUT It still fells like there is something missing when I'm playing. And i don't mean a better computer for better performance! (don't have the money for that lol :P) No. what i mean that is missing is the Future!!! I love how ArmA was introduced to be a more futureistic Military Sim and i love the future stuf that is presented (OPFOR Gear, Ifrit, Gohsthawk, VR, ect.) but i think its still lacking the 2035 touch. ATM i would more or less see it as a 2018 - 2020 game than a 2035 game. I mean i can understand that a army like the AAF has old school stuf as the republic of Altis isn't that big for a own country and that FIA is even worse. but for the NATO to have stuff like a slammer as the MBT even though it massivly loses agains the Kuma (who is supposed to be a outdated MBT like all the gear of the AAF) you would expect that at least the UK and USA would move to something better than the Abrams and not something worse... No wat is missing is this futureistic distinction that makes us believe THIS COULD BE THE FUTURE! when i'm thinking of great Military offensives in 2035 i think of the use of way more advanced stuff than we have now! I mean if we take a look at the current USA you can clearly see that they are allready hard on there way to become like the US army shown in ArmA 3 and we are only in 2014! thats 21 years shorter than the game! No wat we need for the game is some awesome Sci-Fi stuf (not to heavy ofcoarse) where you can say and think. YES that will be there Like a awesome new kind of VTOL that has as much capasity like a C130 Or when we see this day that they are hard working on special suits to amplify youre power that why won't they have battle armour in 2035? like this one I mean ofcoarse its up to the developers or to the talented modders! (I mean the most that i can do is change scripts but thats it i can't moddel AT ALL. im like a fish on the dry when it comes to 3D moddeling and stuf!) i just hope that you guys of BIS would consider something like this as a DLC (like Future tech DLC? i would but that for sure!!!) I also hope that there are people in this comunity feeling exactly the same about this as I do and also feel like there is this tiny (or massive depending on each person) missing to make it the most awesome Game in the military franchise ever! I do Hope that this is posted in the right section btw as my question is mainly focused on the BIS Dev's (if not I kindly ask the moderators to move t accordingly) And i hope i set some guys to the thinking area to make something this world never saw before! Kind regards, KBBW p.s. wouldn't something like this be awesome ass well? p.p.s. Ofcoarse i don't expect anyone to take these moddels as they are problably copy righted by there creators..... but its to get the picture ;)

Okay I'm a real keyboard user so first off all I EXTREMLY suck at this XD but next thing that i noticed was that it looked amazingly nice and the dashboard meters where pretty mutch the same as the GUI in advanced mode so even in copilot i could see the stats the same. other thing is that the AH-99 has aaweful flaw and that is that its unturnable when you go 280 + KM/h (each time me and a frend did it we made about 5 salto's combined with 10 sideways rolls..... Handling of the choppers seams to be specified to Joystick users who appear to have it more easy with it while keyboar users are having a hard time even taking of.... pressing q all the time is now a killer move on keyboards ;) ow and if you take of, make a strange turn (more like sideways turn...) your engine will stall making you go upside down. crashing you into the ground and when the chopper explodes it jumps up in the air (about 20-50 meters) and you stay on the spot where it exploded. (also happend after a frend started up and laned a pawnee but the tail hit the ground. BUT the chopper did not explode frend just died. chopper flew into the air and exploded once it reached the ground again) But further its awesome! a real good challenge to become a better pilot. people who can fly good here are ACE's at the standard version for sure!

@nettrucker just trying to lighten the mood ;) because we all know what will happen if WW 3 breaks out between super powers like russia and america... the only thing i can advise is that if you here there is war coming from either poetin or obama make sure you have a 1 year supply of water (not still water) 1 year worth pf preserved food (something that will last a decade) and the closest Nuclear shelter in youre region. because if you don't knnw that at the moment they push the red button your basiclly allready dead....
