[QUOTE=Falchion;33195734]You could have basically found that out just by asking anyone.[/QUOTE] Why would you ask someone "HEY CAN YOU USE CUSTOM SOUNDS INGAME?" out of the blue?
[QUOTE=AloneEasyTarget;33195778]Bought Arma X. So the separate 2+GB install which is Arma X: Anniversary Edition contains only soundtracks, maps etc? Or it's another game altogether?[/QUOTE] yes the separate download are all the soundtracks (110+ songs) and other bonus stuff [editline]9th November 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Tark;33195809]Why would you ask someone "HEY CAN YOU USE CUSTOM SOUNDS INGAME?" out of the blue?[/QUOTE] because ... there is question and answers forum on BIF: [url]http://forums.bistudio.com/forumdisplay.php?f=110[/url] there is editing forum on BIF: [url]http://forums.bistudio.com/forumdisplay.php?f=92[/url] there is official BIKI: [url]http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Main_Page[/url] there is whole community for editing OFPEC: [url]http://www.ofpec.com/[/url] :suicide: double facepalm emotion not found :(
I have found ArmA's editing to be [i]very[/i] well documented. You're just not looking hard enough.
Any more news on the remake of the original games? Co-op resistance campaign is my personal dream world. Another note can anybody remember the name of the band in the original OFP soundtrack? seventh or something, need that and their track lifeless for a flashback cutscene (Adds to nostalgia)
Could someone tell me what the hell Arma: Combat Operations is? It looks like Arma 2 but the SP campaign sounds well executed, the terrain looks unlike anything I've seen, and the units are from around 2008-ish. Was it just something inbetween CWC and Arma 2 that I never heard of or what?

Was it just something inbetween CWC and Arma 2 that I never heard of or what?[/QUOTE] Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Well guess where the 2 in the ArmA 2 comes from. ArmA: Combat Operations is also known as ArmA: Armed Assault (mostly just called Armed Assault) and was released in 2006/2007. The campaign was kinda buggy and people didn't like it, even tho I enjoyed it. The whole game kinda felt that it was rushed out and even the Developers admitted (when making ArmA 2) that they kinda felt no passion when making ArmA and it kinda came out half-assed. Patches made it playable (latest patches made it run very smoothly) and it had pretty much same multiplayer community that the ArmA 2 now has. The terrain (Sahrani) is the best terrain I have ever played and I play it pretty often on ArmA 2 too. I used to play alot Evolution, Sahrani Life and Domination. And ACE when it was released. There was loads of confusion during the release due to name not being OFP because of legal issues with Codemasters. Oh and ArmA multiplayer was much better than OFP's due to having JIP.

[QUOTE=capgun;33198352]-Video- All I have from saturday[/QUOTE] Looking at that just makes me want a gamenight even more. It was so bloody fun and "Stig i hate you so much right now" was really good !
I [I]know[/I] more people have to have ArmA 2 and OA now, so I'm also assuming more people will be able to play with us this weekend. In that case, please display your interest in playing this weekend and I'll see what I can do to make it more interesting. Mind you, it will be on Saturday. I also like how Capgun's videos cut out when he explodes.

How do you change your name in ARMA 2: CO? It took the name of my computer for some reason and I want to change it while keeping my saves.
I installed the profan mods by yoma addon sync and but it wont launch with the mods enabled stops working at the splash screen regular oa seems to work
post your launch command also i can't attend this weekend probably (skyrim or drunk)
Hey Dwarden, speaking of custom things, are you guys ever going to get around to fixing the white-faced custom faces in ArmA 2? And no, I'm not running on an ATI card, it's a Nvidia 9800GT.
Didn't they fix that for ARMA 2 already? I used to see it all the time in ARMA 1, but I've never seen it happen in ARMA 2. Back then the workaround was to use .paa files instead of jpegs for the face texture.

Can I join you guys not this weekend, but next?
Dwarden, my company, Facepunch Inc. would like to test a copy of your new VBS2. [video=youtube;O6oaadVFP_c]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6oaadVFP_c&feature=feedu[/video]
VBS2 has the same graphics that Armed Assault did, that's just footage of Arma 2 and Arma 3 stuck together.

i'll buy a copy of it for a tenner
I hope arma3 will get this fantastic pathfinding, the current one is despicable. [video=youtube;MsgCLX84RZo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsgCLX84RZo[/video]
[QUOTE=Useful Dave;33205688]Capgun has a tendancy of just stopping recording before even more stuff explodes. I'm up for a weekend game though. :D[/QUOTE] The problem is that arma only runs well on my laptop, and I've got a smaller hard drive. Ive got a 1tb in my desktop, but it runs arma poorly,and said HD wont fit in my laptop. I'd love to record constantly, but at a gig a minute, it gets difficult. I try to predict when something awesome is gonna happen, and occasionally ill get lucky(2nd slamming into the building), often ill get a good deal of crap(lots of just walking was deleted), and most the time ill miss it altogether(exploding littlebird, flipped shilka). Also, wont make it this weekend because skyrim (might be out on saturday too)
