how do i add items to a unit's extra packs, like the vest and backpacks?

So, cuel before told me that to prone-lean you must CTRL+S. Okay, really, thank you for showing how to lean on the right side, but... why, its not possible to lean on the right side?

I hope an I44 port comes quick once ARMA 3 releases fully With the better animation support and smoother combat mechanics I imagine a WW2 mod would just feel great.

I want this so bad. Do you need a supercomputer to run it or is it fairly well optimized? I loved Arma 2, but I hated that my PC struggled to run it, even though it shouldn't have.

just found out how to add stuff to backpacks, incase anyone is wondering (unitBackpack this) addMagazineCargo

Should I buy ARMA 3 Alpha? I just found a gift card for $25 that I added to my Steam wallet on top of the $19 I already had, so I can now afford it. Is it worth it? Just want to double check before I buy.

Anyone know how to give a unit a parachute or something? I have him start at elevation 500 but cant get him to parachute.

Should this run fine on 8gb ram ddr3, an HD 6790 and amd fx 4100 quad 3.5ghz?

My friend and I got in the Alpha yesterday and going around in servers messing around. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNVjO1y2Tfg[/media]

[QUOTE=PistolKid;39823395]Okay, so... Basically I ordered the Supporter edition from the BIS store. However, the transaction failed after being stuck for about 10 minutes. It brought me to an error page, whatever. I check my online banking, and under "Pending Activity" there was a transaction from when I bought gas earlier, the transfer from a separate account to reimburse that payment, and the purchase from BIStudio store. Today, I check my banking again. The gas payment and transfer were cleared, however the BI Studios purchase was still under "Pending Activity." I'm assuming that Bohemia didn't receive the transaction and there's $90 floating out there somewhere. I want to leave calling my bank for last, I was just curious if there was anything else you guys think I should do. Already sent an e-mail, no response in 22 hours. Should I keep waiting for a response?[/QUOTE] Same thing happend to me

has anyone had success in removing starting nvgoggles? i tried this removeitem "NVGoggles" but it doesn't work, no error or anything but the unit still has them

I loved Arma 2, but I hated that my PC struggled to run it, even though it shouldn't have.[/QUOTE] It's surprisingly well optimized compared to A2, ignore the ghost rater. Don't expect to run it on all highest settings though, the benchmark is set even higher this time around.

I'm REALLY looking forward to the Jets. [editline]6th March 2013[/editline] Whenever they are finally added.

Just imagine how great this game is going to be when the full game is completely done.

[QUOTE=alx12345;39823881]Same thing happend to me[/QUOTE] Glad to know someone else had this issue. On the forums it only says stuff about the transaction being completed but not getting a CD key, I don't think this is the same.

[QUOTE=JerryK;39823920]has anyone had success in removing starting nvgoggles? i tried this removeitem "NVGoggles" but it doesn't work, no error or anything but the unit still has them[/QUOTE] [code] this unassignItem "NVGoggles"; this removeItem "NVGoggles"; [/code]

I wish the editor was 3D

Has anyone made a 'toybox' kinda mission yet? With crates full of all the items that are in the game?

[QUOTE=Cuel;39824098][code] this unassignItem "NVGoggles"; this removeItem "NVGoggles"; [/code][/QUOTE] thanks

[video=youtube;-cQLXf-6duE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cQLXf-6duE&feature=youtu.be[/video] Landsharks are coming in the beta

The funny part is, as messed up and over the top the physics are right now, they're STILL better than Arma 2's

[QUOTE=MadPro119;39824107]I wish the editor was 3D[/QUOTE] This. Hopefully there will be one, considering ArmA 2 had a 'secret' one that was impossible to use, which makes it possible for one.

cuel, my lord and savior, i seek guidance once more everything in my mission is working, but when someone dies they respawn with a standard blufor loadout instead of the loadout that they get when first spawning

Yeah I've been trying to solve that myself but I'm having some issues with launchers so I can't really help atm

Fucking glowing sticks! [img_thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/arma3_2013-03-06_23-04-02-37.png[/img_thumb] Pretty neat actually. It's like they warp the ground around them or something.
