[QUOTE=Tark;24559713]I [i]think[/i], but I'm not entirely sure, that if you bought ArmA 2 on steam, you have to buy any DLC on steam too.[/QUOTE] I bought it from amazon :)
[QUOTE=Jokerxxx;24561914]Ohh! thanks, that i will try. [editline]09:06AM[/editline] Okay that did't work, the retail ARMA 2 cd is not compatible with steam.[/QUOTE] Are you sure you entered the CD-Key correctly? It should work. If not then I can only direct you to the BIS forums. [url=http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=101214]Somewhere around here.[/url]
ArmA II and Operation Arrowhead are not Steam redeemable games.
[QUOTE=Makol;24562352]ArmA II and Operation Arrowhead are not Steam redeemable games.[/QUOTE] Oh wow, that's gay.
Yeah, i read it on steam support.... and as you said, that's gay.
[QUOTE=Jokerxxx;24561715]What if you have got the Operation Arrowhead on steam but have the ARMA 2 in retail copy , can they work together ? or do i have to get ARMA 2 on steam to?[/QUOTE] [url]http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=101214[/url]
How do I make them spawn flying? When I spawn an aircraft they have to take off first.
how come i didnt get mission 8 is there a specific requirement like capuring rather than killing aziz or rescuing the pow's on m7 [URL=http://img534.imageshack.us/i/arma2oa2010090514230882.png/][IMG]http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/796/arma2oa2010090514230882.th.png[/IMG][/URL] [editline]02:45PM[/editline] willing to give it a try but not really convinced PR will work on arma 2. suppose it depends on the maps.
Just bought the game. Are there any of those Tacticalgamer type servers still out there? Those types where alot of fun back in Arma 1 and Arma 2.
Can anyone give me some tips for creating missions? I tried messing with it a little bit, but it's still fucking weird.
When I try to launch Combined Operations command prompt opens briefly and then closes, what's wrong?
[QUOTE=Deez nutz;24732068]Can anyone give me some tips for creating missions?

[editline]05:57PM[/editline] [hd]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6Rp7kx6MtA[/hd][/QUOTE] thanks, this helps a lot. i'm going to look at more tutorials and get used to this [editline]03:32PM[/editline] I tried creating another scenario where I board my squad into a C-130, take off the runway, and HALO jump over a certain area, but I can't seem to get them to do that. I looked around and I heard that I may need to download an addon for certain things. Also how do I make planes/helicopters fly at higher altitudes? It seems that they all fly at ridiculously low altitudes.
how do you deploy stuff from bags? like mortar's i can only seem to drop the bag which is pretty useless
[QUOTE=waylander;24827229]how do you deploy stuff from bags? like mortar's i can only seem to drop the bag which is pretty useless[/QUOTE] Face the bag on the ground while holding the second one. There should be an option to assemble the weapon.
The_few Planes mod, running it with combined operations, gotta love it. [img_thumb]http://thepointofbuilding.net/uploads/ArmA2OA%202010-09-14%2019-25-36-02.jpg[/img_thumb] Set up about 20 rocket trucks and 30 mortars to fire at this base. :v: [img_thumb]http://thepointofbuilding.net/uploads/ArmA2OA%202010-09-12%2017-49-35-57.jpg[/img_thumb] Oh yeah and to deez_nuts, use planename flyinheight height; height being in meters, i'll get a snippet that gets them to start at that altitude in a second. Can be used in the planes init line like , this flyinheight 300;
How in the christ do you deploy the mortar from the bag?
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;24880866]How in the christ do you deploy the mortar from the bag?[/QUOTE] You need the universal bipod. You drop it on the ground and then get a mortar on your back and then when aiming at the dropped bipod you will have an option to deploy it in action menu.
Damn theres a very weird lag issue, when i play it its nice for like 10 minutes and then in makes a shortfreeze every 2 seconds. No, i don't have a pirated version, and yes, latest patch. I have the gamespy version if that matters.

It's Direct2Drive.
Man, the LRR from the DLC is amazing. I played a game of Insurgency a while ago, as OPFOR, and managed to pilfer one from a dead body. I killed anywhere from ten to twenty enemy soldiers before they flanked me and shot me in the back. :v:

[QUOTE=Zackin5;25040713]Is that VTE? I've been craving some Vietnam games for a year but I had forgot about the ArmA mods.[/QUOTE] Yeah it's VTE, latest private test version off their forum for arrowhead.
