[QUOTE=ShadowPhoeni;23718872]Trying hamster's script doesn't work either. [code]planegroup = createGroup West; _plane = createVehicle ["A10", [(getMarkerPos "A10_Lead") select 0,(getMarkerPos "A10_Lead") select 1,100], [], 0, "FLY"]; _pilot = planegroup createUnit ["US_Pilot_Light_EP1", getPos _plane, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _pilot moveInDriver _plane;[/code][/QUOTE] Thing is Profan was saying his code didn't work, I tested just that tiny bit of code and nothing was wrong, I didn't look at if the code I ended up with was the same as what he gave me :p. [editline]03:10AM[/editline] [QUOTE=ShadowPhoeni;23719100]My script works on Takistan, but not Utes?[/QUOTE] I tried making it on Taki and Utes and am I right that the problem is it won't create the markers (and anything after that)?
The markers are fine, it just wouldn't create the person.
[QUOTE=ShadowPhoeni;23719273]The markers are fine, it just wouldn't create the person.[/QUOTE] Hmm doesn't even make the markers for me on Utes.
Yeah i fixed it though :v:, fucking finally heres the unit spawn code shadow: [code]_pilot = planeGroup createUnit ["US_Pilot_Light_EP1", getPos AN2CAS, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"]; _pilot assignAsDriver AN2CAS; _pilot moveInDriver AN2CAS; [/code] Big thanks to hamster for pitching in
Is the assignAsDriver necessary?
[QUOTE=ShadowPhoeni;23719976]Is the assignAsDriver necessary?[/QUOTE] It's mroe of a precaution. lol
Do I have to have port 2303 open to host a listen server?

those rockets are scary shit [QUOTE=ShadowPhoeni;23720736]Do I have to have port 2303 open to host a listen server?[/QUOTE] i dont remember having to, but if it doesn't work , do it.
Here's a tedious challenge for you: Start out with ambient combat, animal, civvie modueles and your character with either an AK-47/pistol or a car. See how good weapons can you score in a few hours and how soon you can shoot donw a chopper.
Even bigger challenge. Join a domination server with a few of your friends, works best if you are the only ones in the game. Parachute to the Main Objective with only pistols. You then have to just scavenge what weapons/vehicles you can from the towns you conquer. It's a great feeling.
[QUOTE=ShadowPhoeni;23720736]Do I have to have port 2303 open to host a listen server?[/QUOTE] Any port works ,infact the port doesn't even have to be forwarded for inbound traffic to work.

It's a great feeling.[/QUOTE] Yeah, that doesn't work if the host doesn't change armour option at main to less or none, it's impossible due to the ammount of tanks. [editline]12:00PM[/editline] The shit works :v: [img_thumb]http://thepointofbuilding.net/uploads/ArmA2OA%202010-07-30%2013-57-25-34.jpg[/img_thumb]
Nah it's possible. You'll just have to scavenge whatever AT you can find around the towns, which is basically the whole point of what I said in the first place.
[QUOTE=PopLot;23727738]Nah it's possible. You'll just have to scavenge whatever AT you can find around the towns, which is basically the whole point of what I said in the first place.[/QUOTE] then youre on a server that has terrible ai settings, like rookie or something.

He sees my game in the list, but the ping is a question mark and after about two seconds it says failed to connect. Should I just go ahead and forward the ports?

Any FP servers/clans? I used to be in the 386th in ArmaII before it went down the shithole, was great fun though, so if there is such a thing for OA I might just get it.

The ArmA team wishes to inform you that our game is designed for noobs and children in a fetal stage, with extremely high framerate impact. The game is ideal for those who enjoy playing and getting ripped the fuck off for 80 euros. The reviews are in: "Very poor framerates and controls" "Very poor, there is freeware out there that can top this!" "You have got to be fucking joking!" "I've been punked by Bohemia Interactive" "OMFG, I could have gotten it on Pirate Bay!" [highlight](User was permabanned for this post ("Spam" - Jimbomcb))[/highlight]

I liked how he signed up to post that.
So I was playing armory, got the survive for four minutes challenge. Alright, not that hard, just go prone in a bush somewhere... Three minutes later after sitting there doing nothing and not really paying attention, I hear "ENEMY CLOSE", I look to my left... [IMG]http://imgur.com/9AFsj.jpg[/IMG] :ohdear: I then unpaused and got killed by about 5 soldiers.
I wish this game was better optomized, I'd love to play this game but I kinda lose it when I have to play with 20- fps no matter graphic settings.
How populated are the servers on OA? I'm planning on buying it, but I don't feel like it if there aren't any servers with a decent population.
[QUOTE=Weaselcake;23744510]How populated are the servers on OA? I'm planning on buying it, but I don't feel like it if there aren't any servers with a decent population.[/QUOTE] Fairly populated. Most servers average anywhere from 5 to 25, which isn't bad considering most servers are running some sort of co-op gamemode.
Also, is there a difference between the CD version and the Steam version? Do both share the same servers?
I want some ArmA 2 Mods that aren't just reskins of old shit, or different modern technology. Why isn't there any just ridiculous shit likes aliens or anything. For ArmA 1 there was an Independence Day pack, sure the models were pretty crappy but it was fun to make Mankind vs Aliens scenarios. Why hasn't anyone made an 100 ft tall colossus that goes around stomping on shit or something?
There's Star Wars and Stargate stuff isn't there? Quit complaining about the fact the user addons for a modern military simulator are modern military. [QUOTE=PopLot;23745082] Why hasn't anyone made an 100 ft tall colossus that goes around stomping on shit or something?[/QUOTE] You try modelling, texturing, animating and coding that shit for a game engine totally [I]not[/I] designed for that then if you think it's so easy.
Modelling, texturing and stuff like that wouldn't be too hard for a professional, it's just the scripting stuff that would drive people insane. And there's always attachTo to make this stuff. I forwarded the port and the server still isn't working.
