  1. FYI - we have some old friends from an eastern european group that play Arma 3 exclusively which will be hanging around for some months, or longer. The UA MilSim Community is mostly non-english speaking folks, yet their squad leaders all speak English as far as I understand it. We will be hosting a couple A3 servers for them in addition to providing a dedicated set of channels in VG TeamSpeak for them as well. Their modset includes ACRE, so this means that VOIP in their actual server channels will be restricted to those on their server and with the ACRE mod installed. If all goes well, and they are pleased with the servers and service we offer, after a 30 day trial, they will donate each month at a regular set amount for compensation of the hardware provided and service of assisting and maintaining these servers under our roof. Please also remember that not all of them speak English, and that they mostly will be doing their own thing with their own people. They may likely run events now and then, but it will be up to them whether it will open to just UA MilSim Community members, or including the general public and/or VG Arma 3 regulars. Expect to see users with the =JS= tag on VG TeamSpeak and other places here, and know that they are welcome members of the UA MilSim Community.
  2. We have decided that VG will be hosting a singular memorial event in June, every year. What began as a memorial for Vincent James will now evolve into a memorial event for any/all past members, and we will soon adjust the event details to reflect that long prior to the event taking place.
  3. Looks like a winner to me! I also opted for the "Super" line, back in 2018/2019 I got the ASUS ROG STRIX Nvidia RTX 2070 Super rather than the 2080 (non-super), and was a very good buy. Still going strong. I've not kept up with the latest cards or developments, all know is that they are power hungry. What I do know is that if/when I need to upgrade my 2070 Super, it will likely involve buying a new more powerful Power Supply and redoing all the painfully difficult (but well routed) cable runs throughout my case, and won't be a simple card-swap. My 750 Watts PSU just won't cover it with these new cards, and ya never wanna reuse cable runs if you get a new PSU, even if you have modular cables and the PSU is the exact same brand (or even model!), and imho it's one of the most annoying parts of building a case. Shit is too short to run the way you want, or too long and you have to make dumbass looking doglegs - and if you want it done right, you spend all the time and you definitely make sure you can replace just one fan (for example) down the road without having to yoink its cable out of a rats nest and undo all that fancy cable routing work.
  4. This is covered in the BMS Manual under Multiplayer TL;DNR ... IPv6 is already supported by BMS, and will naturally take over once everyone is IPv6 instead of IPv4. Until then, those with IPv6 provided by their ISP still also have IPv4 addresses. If using IPv6 for hosting in BMS, all players connected must have IPv6 available and use that only. You can find this section in the BMS Manual around page 79:
  5. @MinkyNeets Hello and welcome to the VG Air Force!
  6. Hello and welcome! Are you "trickla" on our PR COOP Server?
  7. WOW! Blast from the past! Can't believe it's been nearly 15 years of VG!!
  8. Sadly, I must share news of a long time member and friend of VG - a fellow Falconeer and BMS pilot many of us knew as RAM22 or Cloud9 has passed away. The notice was posted on the BMS forums which I will quote here in its entirety. RAM22 will be missed, and for those of us who knew him, will live on forever in our hearts and our memories. Rest in peace, RAM22
  9. I started over on a new world (still Mars) back in July, took some time to rebuild my workshop, and the furnace facility, too. My furnace facility has... evolved: ...will definitely be making another base tour video soon, now that I'm nearing 3 years on Mars! Thanks all!!
  10. Use imgur, noob. j/k - but seriously, use imgur.com when some website has limits that they use to keep their website from becoming some 4TB photo dump. Salient points in your posts, too.
  11. First make sure you are not online on our server. Next, just practice... imagine a bowling ball balancing on a toothpick. In the end, it's not about "what altitude" or "what speed", it's all about feel - you either become one with the coppi or not. Other skills worth learning are: Parking the choppi in mid-air, requiring no further stick or throttle input for at least 10 minutes (or until CAS gunner is out of ammo and needs to RTB) Doing a barrel roll to avoid an incoming missile while high enough off the deck to recover and use the (new) downward/forward momentum to escape MANPAD range Hovering over water high enough to not crash but low enough that passengers can get in Hovering over an unlandable area low enough that passengers can safely load up or depart Dropping a crate on a small building rooftop correctly the first time, everytime Memorizing every AAA/SAM location on every map you play
  12. I've heard of mini-ATX before, but this must be called something like nano-ATX or femto-ATX
  13. There is clearly only one solution for anyone who misses Jabal Al Burj: >become a PR-CON/PR-DEV >fix Jabal Al Burj, even if the map itself needs fixing >if fixed, Jabal will be allowed back >quit being a PR-CON/PR-DEV >play Jabal Al Burj
  14. I poked around in permissions and such, and the channel settings, and couldn't find anything that is labeled anything close to Whisper or targeting or any of that. I am not at all good with TS3, I don't know it and never really did. I just know how to do a few things, and to host a TS3 server that auto-restarts itself if crashed, and starts up by itself if the Windows server hosting it is restarted. Wish I could help more - I'm not even familiar with this feature, though of course I did read about it after seeing your post here. If there is something we can do, we will - just gotta identify what that thing is, cuz I can't find anything.
  15. Well, maybe if TEDF wanted to give it to you ... this was for an event over 5 years ago, you definitely don't need it anymore. Additionally, there is little reason to believe any maps from that era would work in PR now due to the (several) major updates which have been applied to PR since then. Best wishes and good luck!
  16. I swear, I've seen this event before... (not sure if I will be in the mountains that weekend, will know more the closer we get - if available, I'll fill out some slot that needs filling, I'm not picky)
  17. I assume you are running an Anti-Virus software beyond simply Windows Defender, and so you'll want to disable this software, and uninstall/reinstall PR. I am not sure if it is required to backup user profiles first, it's been a long time since I did this - your user profiles are located in 'My Documents\ProjectReality' The important part is that the Anti-Virus software deleted/quarantined files that PR needs to run. Not sure if you need to re-download fresh installer files, but if installing from files you already have fails (again), the next step would be to try downloading the files again while the Anti-Virus software is disabled. Once PR is properly installed, you can then run your Anti-Virus software and create an exception for the PR game to allow it to run without this software deleting files or putting them in quarantine. The way PR runs is a bit hacky and is no surprise that certain software would flag it as dangerous because it modifies files in memory for another software (BF2) in order to inject its own features and functionality, unlike other full conversion mods for games which openly release their source code for modders.
  18. I would assume it is a false-positive related to anti-virus software. Please find that PRLauncher.log file and attach it here to a post, we can review it and discover exactly what is the issue, if it's not AV related. That would be the best place to start.
  19. Great work! So rewarding to free up some wires - glad you found my DIY build blog useful Best wishes and good luck with the battery holder!
