I tried it on a non-dedicated server with a buddy a couple days ago. It works as long as the host initiates all the actions first and such. There's some flaws like seeing each other bounce on the sub because of the water going up and down and such, but I'm pretty sure those are engine limitations rather than Goblin's fault. This is definitely one of the coolest mods for A3 so far.

Yeah, holy shit. I was about to join the Korps Mariniers last year but got rejected due to "bad hayfever." I was disappointed at the time, but realizing I would have gone through special operations training, I guess I'm kinda lucky. I can probably handle the regular corps, but becoming a special forces operator? I don't think I have that in me just yet... Lucky me I guess. Awesome, can't wait to see what you make of all these forces.

EDIT: I accidentally posted this with the wrong title, sorry about that. If it's not too much trouble I'd be thankful if a moderator could change the title to "Sound not found error?" Hey, I'm having an issue in which I keep getting the "sound x not found" error. Error when trigger activates: Trigger: http://i.gyazo.com/dd6d6c96f19c02f0598f882e45476c55.png (230 kB) Mission folder: description.ext: class CfgMusic { tracks[]={}; class pant1 { name = "pant1"; sound[] = {"pant1.ogg", db+1, 1.0}; //I've also tried the pant1.ogg without quotation marks, but it made no difference }; }; I've done this before and it worked, but it just doesn't in this mission. I'm kind of stumped so I'd like to ask you guys if you could point out to me what I'm doing wrong so I can continue my mission. :) Thanks, Sean

Korps Mariniers aren't special forces. They're definitely elite light-infantry as they receive extensive training in mountain, artic, desert and jungle conditions, specializing in amphibious operations, but they're not considered special forces. EDIT: Oh never mind.. Seems like the every marine in the corps is in the process of becoming SOC (Special Operations Capable) as of 2014. Hot dang.

A friend of the family used to be in the Unit Interventie Mariniers, also known as M-Squadron. It'd be pretty cool to have UIM troops in ArmA. http://www.dutchdefencepress.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/D1430312LW1297.jpg (198 kB)

Hey, I have a slight issue with ragdolls in ACE: Whenever I tried to place dead friendly units, they just go into the "unconscious" animation instead of the ragdoll thing, even though they're dead. I tried dropping them from great heights and just setting their damage to 1 in their init lines, but they don't ragdoll. I turned off "prevent instant death" and tried enabling the medical system for AI but none of the options change it. http://i.gyazo.com/114a2752429918cbbea73d5544487a76.jpg (768 kB) Can anyone help me out with this please?

if they're RHS vehicles, make sure that you have "Advanced Armor" turned off. It can turn vehicles invincible

I tested it in multiplayer, and I now have the issue of the CBA_fnc_globalSay3d function not working properly. I have 2 units: cia1 and civ1, plus a trigger. This trigger states that when cia1 gets within range of civ1, it plays sound1 using CBA_fnc_globalSay3d. It works all fine with only one player on the server, but when I try it with another player, the sound activates twice, even though I set the trigger to "trigger once." It seems to be activating once per player, even though there is only 1 called cia1 and the trigger is set to "once" so I have no idea what is going on. Could anyone help me out with this please? Here's an image of the trigger setup below: http://i.gyazo.com/ced592f8f3883a150ff2a13dc99add49.png (109 kB)

I'm making a mission for some buddies and myself. This mission relies heavily on the weapons, gear and munition packed in our SOV, which I added in through the vehicle's init line. The problem is though, whenever we try to actually play it, on the dedicated server the things in the inventory are just not there at all, while when hosted on a local server, only I can see all the items. This is the init line: We're using RHS, TFAR and ACE for this, playing on the Kunduz terrain. I tried putting all the items in a vanilla ArmA vehicle, but no luck. Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Cheers, - Sean

Oh, awesome. Thanks! I also have stuff in the mission with say3D and this script. Will this not work in MP either?

I wouldn't call an AI merely flinching before returning accurate fire after being hit by a .50 "not that unrealistic."

You seem like a nice person. Milestone dates aren't deadlines, they're working hard to provide us with a great mod, free of charge, and you're sitting here complaining about them not working fast enough. If you want it ASAP just build it yourself.

Hey Spartan, I absolutely love what you're doing here. Thanks for the hard work, man. Do you have any estimation on how much this will affect performance on a 15-20 player server?

Have you guys thought about adding Ballistic Shields? This could allow for pretty interesting CQB tactics http://www.americanspecialops.com/images/photos/special-reaction-team/srt-shield.jpg (114 kB) Some operators using ballistic shields prefer to hold their pistols sideways or 45 degrees tilted so they can get a better view of their sight, as shown in this image: https://chasetactical.com/cache/product_710BFEC907A141D38FA5F40A22CF4E6C_600x600.JPG It's not essential or whatever, but it'd be pretty cool. :)

Awww yisss. I can't wait to see how it works.

I think it would be best to add a client-side option to censor it, so that people who want the dirty, gritty, realistic depiction of war can turn on the gore setting, and those who feel like they can be triggered or don't want this, can just keep it censored so that it just shows the limb glowing red, for example. For immersion it would add a lot, because IEDs, RPGs, mortars, artillery and large calibers can definitely leave someone dismembered. In my opinion, it's always been immersion breaking to see someone get hit by an RPG and just seeing them 100% intact without a scratch. In my community, we have a PJ section and dismemberment would definitely add a lot for us. It'd be a shame to let this opportunity slide. With optional censorship you please both the people who want it and those who don't, win-win. That's great! Awesome work, guys.

Ooh that looks awesome, will the interfaces be compatible or integrated with ACE3? Also, will you guys be adding "fluid" door opening like in the old Rainbow 6 games? It'd be amazing to just open the door a tad to chuck in a flashbang, then bash through when it goes boom. Keep up the awesome work.

Dismemberment would actually be absolutely incredible. About the PTSD triggering, maybe it would be possible to add optional, client-side censorship for those who would be sensitive to the image of dismemberment, where the lost limb would just glow red to indicate it's been lost, rather than actually be dismembered or something like that. (EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed Jackal326 said something similar while I was posting this) While on the topic of triggering real conditions, I'd like to request the feature to turn off the tinnitus, or "combat deafness" as it was known client-side in CSE. I love the effect and want it in for myself and the others, except I have at least 4 members in my community who suffer from tinnitus in real life, and the sound tends to trigger it for them when they forget to put in earplugs, or when they respawn next to explosions without earplugs and such, so it'd be great if they could have an option to turn off the ringing sound, but keep the deafness. Keep up the amazing work guys, I'm insanely excited about all this.

Oooooh snap, this looks amazing. I can't wait to see where this goes, if you guys pull this off this could become one of the best ArmA 3 mods.

That's great! Thanks a lot, you guys are doing great work.

Hey, I love CSE, especially the advanced ballistics and Combat Medical System. I also really like the combat deafness thing, but in my unit, we have a slight issue with it. A couple guys in my unit suffer from actual tinnitus, and the continuous ringing in-game sometimes tends to trigger their actual tinnitus to start acting up. I know this can be prevented with earplugs, but is there a possibility of a client-side option to turn of the combat deafness? I really like it, so I want the module enabled for those without actual tinnitus, but I don't want to risk it messing with the members with tinnitus' hearing if they forget earplugs once.

Eh.. This TiborasaurusRex guy you're asking if he's ever done "anything with weapons" created an 88-video, 36 hour course on firearms and long-range shooting on YouTube. It covers everything from cartridge selection to rifle vibrations to using the "Crack-thump" method to range enemy fire. I think it's pretty safe to say he's done something with weapons, he knows his stuff. With his experience, his input could be quite valuable if you're going for a realistic sound, just saying.

Yup, the bug I was experiencing is fixed with the 2.8.1 hotfix, keep up the awesome work!

Hm, I'm not using the .dll. I tried the userconfig thing, but it still freezes.

Hey Ruthberg, I absolutely love this addon, however since the last update of AdvancedBallistics, whenever I access the Virtual Arsenal from a mission, it just freezes on the loading screen. I confirmed it's AdvancedBallistics since I tested it with no other mods running, other than CBA. When AdvancedBallistics isn't running, I can access the Virtual Arsenal just fine.
