VG ARMA mods, servers help

[Guest Chaz]

Help a brutha out. Which mods (and versions) do I need to properly join the VG servers?

I see there the popular Insurgency mod. VG modded .76?

And there is also Fallujah.

(I have ARMA 2, OA, BAF, and PMC.)

Please confirm.


Also, I haven't touched ARMA since November. What other add-ons (sounds, weapons, etc) are you guys using to enhance the gameplay?

Thanks.

all u need for the main server is just Arma2/OA patched to 1.59, but for the modded server you can DL the Insurgency mod via the TS3 channel (see link)

You only need the Fallujah map v1.1 to play Fallujah. Otherwise it's all Vanilla patched to 1.59

Greetings,

Perhaps you can help me with something... I've played on the VG Arma2 Insurgency server a few times, and had a lot of fun. Recently I have been unable to fully load in. I can see where I have connected, but once the mission loading screen opens the progress meter disappears and I am forced to use the task manager to close Arma since it apparently has locked up. This only occurs when connecting to the VG Insurgency server (stock game A2:OA;BAF:PMC patched to 1.59; not the Falujah mod server).

Considering I also cannot connect to the VG TS3 servers, I suspect you (VG admins) have banned my IP. If that is the case, I have to ask what the reason for the ban is. I know you have had some issues with hackers, and I would certainly do whatever it takes to clear my name with the VG clan. I am not a young kid looking for kicks by screwing with a serious game; quite the opposite: I enjoy the VG servers because it is usually a more mature crowd interested solely in high level team oriented game play.

I can be reached via email at : sandy ((at)) smsp ((dot)) org


* Edit/Update: I now can connect to your TS3 server, so that is corrected.

You were banned by me during a fit of hackers attacking the server. "POSS HACK"


Ban removed. Sorry for the inconvenience. See you in game!

Thank you sir.. And my apologies for not posting in the "ban appeals" section, but I wasn't entirely sure it was a ban and not some software issue (since I didn't get kicked from the server, my game hung).

In any case, thanks!

Chaz, and if you want to try different mods, like ACE, acre, war fx, different armies and such, use this program.

With it you can download and update many great modificatons.

I can't work out what I am doing wrong. Since the update to the map it appears as red on the list of servers. When I click on it it says "Files "addons\fallujah1_0.pbo" and "addons\fallujah_hou1_0.pbo" are not signed by a key accepted by this server. To play on this server, remove listed files or install additional accepted keys."

Now I assume I need to download an update to the modified map or something along those lines but I can't work out where. I've only been playing for a couple of weeks but have quickly found VG to suit my style of play.

Langers, when you play on Fallujah server, turn this map on, when you play somwhere else, turn it off.

Keep your mod files and vanilla files seperate. If you have any modded files in the root arma dir you will not be able to join.

If map related, make sure you have a clean map of Fallujah v1.1 with the proper signature.

Ah, I think I've got it now, thanks
