Anyone else on the teamspeak server?

[QUOTE=Kung Fu Jew;39855371]Is the Take On Helicopters flight model stuff supposed to be a simulator? It's really not. A2's was much better but I can't find the option to put it back.[/QUOTE]

take on's flight model is not in the game. and i dont understand you people who keep complaining because i can hardly tell any difference between A2 and A3

[QUOTE=abcpea2;39859571]take on's flight model is not in the game. and i dont understand you people who keep complaining because i can hardly tell any difference between A2 and A3[/QUOTE]

That's because at the moment there is no difference - ARMA 3's current flight model is A2's.

You need to get your eyes checked.

You know what has to be done.

[notgeogzm]

so I start off with a nice smooth 60fps on multiplayer

and as we get further in to the mission shit gets so fucked that my fps goes down to 23

hoo

[Mbbird]

The helicopters seem super duper floaty though. Go high speed then roll into a left or right turn.

Consider yourself lucky to even get 60fps, and to have 23 as your lowest.

[QUOTE=MadPro119;39858136]Its a little weird right now and holstering pistols is beyond broken. You have to put it in your inv, then the ground, then back into your hands to even be able to shoot it. And the zone controls are still broken.... I may upload it when that gets sorted out.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=abcpea2;39859571]take on's flight model is not in the game. and i dont understand you people who keep complaining because i can hardly tell any difference between A2 and A3[/QUOTE]

There's a very big difference. I can't really say exactly what it is, but A3 relies wayyy more on rudder control to be effective.

It's not a bad thing, just different. But I can sort of see why people would take issue with it.

[QUOTE=Mbbird;39859632]The helicopters seem super duper floaty though. Go high speed then roll into a left or right turn.[/QUOTE]

Yeah they feel that way for me too, I mean, hell, I managed to do a front fucking flip in the mh9, at not much higher than the height that a flying helo spawns off the ground, with little difficulty.

[QUOTE=Dj-J3;39853211]I really recommend learning some scripting, it's really worth it.

Here's some links incase you decide to follow up on my advice. :v:

I checked it out, although what is annoying is that the toturial just stops with a dead end.

[url]http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Introduction_to_Scripting[/url]

It doesn't tell my anything more than "go ahead and script". I have no idea how to start.

I checked out those link you posted, although I can't quite find out what exactly to do to make happen what I want to happen, which isn't anything big really. It's all so confusingly explained.

Oh hey! I was part of that mission!

I was part of 1-4, and had the most kills in the server (11 I think) because my night vision bugged out so I could see super far.

[MadPro119]

[QUOTE=DesolateGrun;39859650]the entire server hates you right now[/QUOTE]

Well I guess I could upload it... in its current state everyone spawns randomly and with one pistol, no ammo. There are basic ammo boxes all over the map and a few grenade boxes I believe. You can leave the mission zone and not be killed. AI civilians will wander away from the city. Buuut I guess...

Remove the underscore from the PBO.

I gotta say, pushing through waves of enemies in towns on n0cturni's server was the most fun I've had yet in ARMA 3. At first we were walking through getting shots rained down on us from this invisible enemy but once we figured out where they were, we could spread out and pick them off and move on.

Not to mention boat SLAMs

Was this the mission I missed because I was sleeping?

[JerryK]

does anyone know how to spawn chemlights on the ground that will be lit and preferably stay on forever?

For the FP mission makers, thought I'd shamelessly plug my little kill ticker script for those of you who are into that kind of jazz. [URL="http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?148964-SCRIPT-Basic-killticker"]http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?148964-SCRIPT-Basic-killticker[/URL]

Oh man, I just did well enough on a Wasteland server that I got accused of hacking.

That's a hell of an ego booster.

Arma 2 is on sale. Does anyone maybe a copy for my friend? He's a freak in Arma series.

[Samuel2213]

I'm hoping they fix the vehicle physics. They feel VERY floaty atm.
