remakes of old arma campaigns and content as creator dlc?
nesan posted a topic in ARMA 3 - CREATOR DLC
I was wondering if there was any consideration to port/remake old arma campaigns to arma 3 via creator dlc? I would love to play the original OFP campaign on brand new maps and an enhanced 80's version of Malden island. Hell, I would also like a port of take on helicopters to arma 3.- 1 reply

Hello I always loved the world of Operation Flashpoint and Arma series for it's realistic countryside, nature, people, vehicles and such things. I would like to experience it in a peaceful way for once :) I was thinking if there are some missions or MODs which would include adventure like story with meeting people, travelling around the island, investigating, looking for some things somewhere and such, but in a civilian non combat settings. You get my idea right? If you know about something like that let me know! EDIT: found Arma3life and Arma3 project life so far...

What does it do? HKM allows you to bind User Actions to a specific key on your keyboard. You are able to bind switching weapons (primary, secondary, handgun etc.), switching seats in vehicles and many other actions to any key of your choice. How does it work? Enter Mission Editor Place HKM Game Logic When in-game press APP (Application) button to activate HKM Menu In HKM Menu you are able to change hotkeys on-the-fly. Your settings are stored in a file. HKM can also be activated through eventhandlers. What can i do with it? In the latest HKM experimental build you are able to bind: ON FOOT: Primary Weapon Secondary Weapon Hand Gun Hand Grenade Throw (Satchel Charge, Mine) Heal Holster Weapon Interact IN VEHICLE: Switch to Driver Seat Switch to Gunner Seat Switch to Commander Seat Switch to Back Seat (Cargo) Manual Fire Auto Hover Eject/Get Out Open/Close Hatch COMMON: Touch Off Most of the actions listed above are obvious but one of them is special. INTERACT is an action that combines a number of actions into one key. Its functionality is based on player distance to interactive objects. In the latest experimental build INTERACT key allows to: Get into vehicle Open/Close door Climb ladder Up/Down Other specific action is HEAL. It does not use any scripts. It is based on hardcoded action unit action ["HEAL"]. It is possible to be executed by every unit (the healing animation is played) but it works only for medic. There is no possibility to make it excluded for everyone besides medics. Anyway, it does not interfere with the game mechanics and does not brake the game schematics (AI medic units do heal themselves). Switching seats is next great feature of HKM. You are able to switch seats in a vehicle even when it is moving! This possibility introduces noticeable immersion improvement. Just remind yourself how many times you were trapped in a vehicle which lost its driver or gunner (or both) because of ongoing firefight. Now, thanks to HKM, you are not a prisoner of a trapped-car anymore! HKM is work-in-progress. On the TO-DO list: Mods compatibility Restrictions for switching seats (for some vehicles) Expanding INTERACTION Switching vehicle weapons In fact HKM is in a very early stage of development however current results shows what can be achieved with Fwatch. Thanks to Kegetys who created it over 11 years ago and Faguss' constant and fierce development, we have possibilities which a few years ago were considered to be miles away. Not to mention that Switching Weapons was introduced into ARMA3 barely 3 months ago! :P First version of HKM will be released when it will be considered to be ready.

(Picture created by RozekPoland, edited by RozekPoland, remixed by RozekPoland) Within a few days we are going to celebrate 12th anniversary of DXDLL 1.0 release that took place on 12th of July, 2004. I decided to share with you all the information I've found on BIForum and discovered myself about this amazing tool created by Kegetys and Feer. I am not going to repeat the information that is available in the readme and the configurator. Using DXDLL on modern OS (Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10) It is a known problem that DXDLL do not like the modern OS. It crashes the game at the startup or while ALT+TABing. The solution is: Set ColdWarAssault.exe in Compatibility Mode with Windows XP (Service Pack 3). DXDLL is conflicting with other overlay(s) DXDLL is an overlay itself that is why it is not possible to run DXDLL with Steam Overlay, Overwolf or TeamSpeak Overlay at the same time. It even seems that it is not possible to run CWA with DXDLL through Steam with or without Steam Overlay. However, it is possible to run DXDLL and FRAPS together. GENERAL Use Trilinear Filtering Enabling this feature on a computer with modern graphic card lowers quality and sharpness of textures on farther distance. It is because Trilinear Filtering is obsolete and was replaced by Anisotropic Filtering which is turned on by default (in graphic card's control panel). Remove night pixelshader effect Removes black&white night shader effect. Highly usable feature. DISABLED | ENABLED Handle printscreen key The output format of the printscreen is TGA. Its final size is huge and taking a photo stutters a game for a second. There are better alternatives for taking photos ingame (FRAPS). Stage 0 mipmap LODbias Sets normal texture mipmap level of detail, range -1.0(sharp) to 1.0(blurry). http://imgur.com/a/BeTsg Stage 1 mipmap LODbias Sets multitexture texture mipmap level of detail, range -1.0(sharp) to 1.0(blurry). http://imgur.com/a/G3KZq POSTPROCESSING Enable postprocessing Enabling this feature disables AntiAliasing (not available in the game itself) turned on in the graphic card's control panel. Use special NV Goggles effect Works only with vanilla OFP/CWA nightvision texture and FDF mod. DXDLL does checksum (CRC32) for 25% (1/4) of nightvision texture (size). DISABLED | ENABLED Hard Light effect Allows to change RGB channels. The best thing of DXDLL next to water reflections. If you don't like the original values you may want to try Kegetys' personal settings (0.5, 0.5, 0.9). DISABLED | ENABLED Desaturate effect ARMA2-Chernarus-like feature. Not really usable in regular playing but a nice effect for a specific screenshots/screenarts. If you don't like the original values you may want to try Kegetys' personal settings (0.2, 0.4, 0.2). DISABLED | ENABLED Glare Blur, Bloom or whatever you call it. Eveything shines around you. Not useful for regular playing but (as above) a nice effect for screenshots/screenarts. If you don't like the original values you may want to try Kegetys' personal settings (Strength 0.4, Size 4). DISABLED | ENABLED Darken sky Darkens the sky by 15% and the fog color by 10%. All these just to avoid overbrightness caused by Glare effect. Possible to be enabled without Glare effect set to ON. DISABLED | ENABLED Use fading Useless because of making lighting show on your screen. Every bright source of light will stay on the screen for as long as another bright source will not show up to take place of the previous one(s) (explosions, searchlights etc.). REFLECTIONS Enable reflections This feature requires setting Landscape textures resolution (by ColdWarPreferences.exe) to at least 512x512. Works with vanilla OFP/CWA water textures only. DXDLL does checksum (CRC32) for 25% (1/4) of each water texture (size). Water reflections may not work for unbinarised models (MLODs). It is possible to manually set water reflections resolution (Configurator.exe limit is 1024x1024) by opening config.cfg (in dxdll folder), finding and changing sizeX and sizeY values. DISABLED | ENABLED Use exponential fog on water Introduces the specific fog on water that hides the irregularities of OFP/CWA water shorelines. Use lighting on reflections Introduces wider amount of colors on water reflections. Bumpmap strength Strength of bumpmap water reflections. 0 | 10 HIDDEN Requires manual change in config.cfg (in dxdll folder). Use Notepad to open the file. EnhancedTracers Enhances tracers to make them more visible. Less laser guns, more like the real ones. Disabled by default. LODbias Sets reflection texture mipmap level of detail, range -1.0(sharp) to 1.0(blurry).

Pictures created by Shernas, edited by RozekPoland 15 years ago, on 22th of June, 2001, Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis was released. Since that time some interesting events have taken place. The series is now titled ARMA and has been sold in over 10 million copies. OFP was re-released as Arma: Cold War Assault on its 10th anniversary. In May (effectively in June), 2014, GameSpy servers were closed that caused multiplayer browser for OFP/CWA and hundreds of other games to stop working. Eventually, Poweruser overcame the issue with his Powerserver and OFPMonitor. Polish Flashpoint Community (PFC) supports the community with its community masterserver. In January, 2015, an open letter on further CWA support was started. On April Fools' Day, 2015, Kondor released his showcase of OFP/CWA in internet browser (using HTML5). There was a significant flooding on Nogova recently A year ago I shared with you a collection of the best pictures I gathered from all the OFP Photography threads. This year I would like to share it again but in a bit different way. I prepared the best of the best pictures from that gallery. What is more, I uploaded it on a different hosting server (Imgur) which is way more user-friendly than the one I used a year ago. Thanks to BIForum engine you can easily browse them from here :) http://imgur.com/a/Fy0v6

Hey guys. Today I'm happy to announce to development of Conflict '85. A re-imagining and recreation of Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis. Conflict '85 was born out the CUP project as I created Russian and FIA units in the style of OFP units. From there the ideas grew and grew. Re-imaging: There's a lot of military hardware from 1985 that would fit sweetly into the OFP timeline. I aim to bring a unique yet fitting armory of vehicles and weapons into the fold. We'll get into a few examples later. Recreation OFP is a game adored by those who played here, those who yearn for that era one more time. There were vehicles and weapons in OFP that perhaps shouldn't have been used. (I'm looking at you OT-65) yet why the hell not have them back in A3. While a lot of vehicles don't exist right now. Hopefully as time goes on, it may be possible to bring back those missing vehicles. Screenies. M1 Abrams FIA captured T-72. Painted with the classic green stripe indicator. http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/505902374494994338/08E6AE6C33FA9B14DC8FA08F533ABA7CC4BCCC06/ RU T-72 M151 Jeep M113A1 and M577. The ever reliable M113 and it's cousin, the M577 command post.ambulance. Return in MERDC camo. Giving them a new look. http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/505902374502543185/82F5BE3A43D2020A48805BE6E574A7E1D1A1D034/ FIA encampment http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/509280040511509501/8F966F03C798E84F36357DD87F90FE36BD40AD72/ http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/509280040511509723/F5BAC5DCB3816B5F931D10EA410273DEE0E5846C/ US Army UH-60A armed with M2 MG http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/501399955305426393/489CE502859FF3832A20C40CDE7C080A0B1B362E/ RU Ot-65 FUG CUP will be at the heart of this mod. A standalone is out of the question before you ask :) I'm a man of few words who can't think of much more to say but if you have any questions or suggestions. Fire away and I'll do my best to answer as soon as I can :)

FFtA3 : From Flashpoint to Arma 3 Project description : FFtA3 is a Multiplayer project. My objective is to recreate all the best OFP maps (starting by CTF: Capture the Flag and all the way to DM and TDM). As an old school player, playing Flashpoint since 2001 I have recently installed Arma 3. Only finding very little CTF and DM GamePlay, I have started gathering the wonderful maps we all played and on witch we spent soooo much time and started transferring them in the Arma 3 world. Scripts and Templates : In collaboration with the "88th Walking Death" squad and some other coders, I have built up stable CTF, DM and TDM templates. It's is now operational since 1.68 Update. Special thanks to [88] LORD without who this couldn't be possible. Special Thanks : Asaayu FrankForsyth Where to play : www.esportsmasters.org Map already recreated : - [CTF] The End - [CTF] Lost And Lonley - [CTF] Never Scared - [CTF]=S.O.F=Born To Kill - [CTF] Corridor - [DM] Tequila Sundown - [TDM] SNIPER SHOWDOW - [TDM] Urban Sniper - [DM] MAZED - [CTF] S-Curve - [CTF] Mini Hexenkessel - [CTF] Adagio (QA Testing) - [DM] Andersen Gunship (WIP) Maps to come : - [CTF] Scotch Valley - [CTF] PRiSONyARD (by SOD clan) - [CTF] Dead Mans Alley (by SOD clan) - [CTF] Head Fuck (by SOD clan) - [CTF] ToySoldiers - [CTF] Crazy ctf - [CTF] Cashville - [CTF] Dead Zone - [CTF] Yukon - [CTF] X-RAY - [CTF] URBAN ALLEY - [CTF] Little Everon - [CTF] LightHouseKeeper - [CTF] Up In Smoke - [CTF] PARADISE - [TDM] Double Tower Sniper - [TDM] SniperZ - [CTF] Labyrinthe ... Please feel free to send me some recommendations by Mail and if you have the maps you are asking for somewhere, send them too. What is CTF ? CTF stands for Capture The Flag. It is a "Close Quarters Combat (CQC)" game-mod played by a limited amount of players (2 to 24 players) in a restricted area (500m MAX). CTF players have to capture the enemy flag and bring it back to their own Flag. Fatigue is disabled and Snipers/long range riffles are not available (for CQC version). The team that scores the most times in a given time is the winner. CTF can be adapted to bigger maps and applied to a terrain. Listen to the ArmaNET podcast FFtA3 CTF Map Features : - Weapon Menu - Friendly tags (Optional) - Flag tags (Optional) - Self Heal system FFtA3 DM Map Features : - Lobby Weapon type selection - Full Randomised weapons & scopes - Friendly tags (For TDM Only) - Self Heal system NO MODS ARE NEEDED FOR THE SYSTEM TO WORK.

Hello, My nickname is Flash-Ranger. I have played OFP since it's release in 2001. I am a huge fan of your work and of the BIS Spirit. This is why I am so pained to come to you with this request/question. In OFP, the CTF system was perfect. Do you remember the amount of hours we spent (And I'm sure you did too) chasing ourselves with the Flag ? Remember how the flag was attached to us when we captured it ? I hope you know what is coming next : The thing is I didn't play ArmA1 (Cuz it was ... Sorry) nor ArmA2 (cuz I was too afraid of being disappointed) and after spending 7 years on OFP ...... I finally said "Fuck it let's give them a chance" so here I am on ArmA3. So guess what, Hopping form OFP to ArmA3 was ... shocking. But in the good way. I know I'm talking a lot and I should come to the point. But I want you to take the time to read all this to understand why I'm so pissed off. With ArmA3 you killed the CTF system. I want to know why. And then here is my request, can you give it back... The CTF community (I know it is small - BUT STILL HERE) is suffering from your END GAME (THAT IS NOTTTTTTT CTF !!!!!!!) and we have had to create a CTF Template from scratch using Backpacks ... I know we are such a little part of the community ... but please, I am asking for the all of us : Give us back the Capture The Flag system !!!! PLEASE !!!! Some will say "Don't bother, ArmA3 is pure Simulation and this is not worth it" Well-I-Do-Not-CARRRRRE ! We play CTF and We love CTF, and Simulation or NOT, we want to continue playing this game-Style..... Please BIS, hear me. Your sincerely, Flash-Ranger. (This Mail will be posted in the Forum + By contact Form) NB : If you are of the same opinion as me, SPEAK UP, If not, please do not pollute this thread (I already know your arguments) Please compare yourself : OFP > ArmA3 >
