It's all about latency. WiFi doesn't have the speed you need to eliminate such visible delays It's not about ping, upload speed or download speed in this instance. Apologies, not at all sure what you mean by "5G" unless you mean 5GHz - most home WiFi is 2.4GHz, some have a 5GHz option for tablets... but unless your smartphone is your internet connection, "5G" is not quite applicable to gaming over WiFi As it was already stated, the best performance for PC gaming can only be had with a wired connection.

The door has been opened for those who dare to step through...

EDIT: We don't have an "Aussie server". We have a single dedicated server in Germany and we are hosting a single Mike Force SOG mission on it. (well, we have two at the moment, but that's not relevant). Didn't catch that last bit... first cup of coffee, woke up late... You'll want to contact the owners of the server you play on, but that being said, what I wrote below is likely what they will say to you: Rankings are gonna reset. It's just gonna happen. From bugs to server restarts, this is not something we can control or are willing to directly support. Best advice is to use the Arsenal system to save loadouts based on Rank - so you have an entry level kit(s) and some higher level stuff saved and ready for whatever rank you are currently. Also, IIRC, there is no restriction to available vehicles to pilot based on rank. Just join the Green Hornets squad while near the Duty Officer, and enjoy any aircraft at the airbase. Has this changed? I have not been online in awhile... You can even fly the choppers when not in Green Hornets if you get in the co-pilot seat, last time I played anyway. Best wishes and good luck! Hope to see you and others on the server soon, looking forward to some more free time for Arma in August!

I set up a test server to try out the mod pack, if we like it, we'll save the world file - contact me for whitelist requests for this test. edit: Alaura currently has OP and can whitelist others, too Get CurseForge App: https://download.curseforge.com/ Get Enigmatica 6 Modpack and required JRE settings: https://github.com/NillerMedDild/Enigmatica6/wiki/Recommended-Settings-for-Enigmatica Incoming Transmission...

We'd be having the main world as Survival. There's no reason we can't run something that could have multiple worlds (creative/suvival/pvp/etc), maybe a hub world to go between, but we don't expect so much traffic so best to just start small with a single world - and that would be survival. No worries, though, we typically have 2-3 users with unlimited power and blocks of any kind within week 1, willing to share with anyone who wants to make huge builds - any deadpool on Ender Dragon should span less than a week, for sure. Got my vote for Enigmatica 6 - not familiar with it, but reviewed the modlist and all the goodies are there from Ender Storage through Computer Craft through Tinker's Construct, and tons more... if it's a stable pack and works well, should be a good pick for pack

I'd love to play some SWAT4 again! Glad to see it's on GOG for $5 goddammit I missed the sale

obigatory-teaser#1 Beginning Hour 2 with a new baby.... those first few minutes are so precious... everything so shiny and new... 0% usage (adorable) (current server, for contrast)

I always fly with normal pitch: You pull back on the stick, and the nose goes up.... it's video games that consider this abnormal or inverted (well, some... it's a relative term... depends on the game/simulator, really)

I'm gonna try to be online in 'Nam on Sunday, got a heat wave coming so gonna hunker in the bunker and play some SOG. Hope to see some regular faces around, and if anyone is new, happy to run through some basic training.

was reading the brief before signing up, came across this... oof... I guess I'm gonna sit this one out Best wishes and good luck!! I am definitely not patient (or gud) enough with the Armas for proper milsim/onelife op yet, I just started playing again and still finding my controls, etc... lol. I'd be happy to be a cameraman someday when we can code in a role like that (flying cam/god cam, etc. but would need comms for audio, of course) but I know we're not quite set up for that yet. Take a group screenshot when you all can (before heading out would be the wise way to do that in one-life/no-respawn events)

VincentJames96 Memorial Redux - 24 Hours at Muttrah Tuesday June 29th, 2021 - 0600 GMT (also known as UTC or PRT or ZULU) "If a thing is worth doing, it's worth doing right. This is the American Dream in action." See you all again for the Redux Event of VincentJames96 Memorial 24 Hours at Muttrah next Tuesday! This is an All Day Event, and the maplist will be changed and fixed to Muttrah beginning at 0600 ZULU (aka PRT/UTC/GMT) and reset to standard 24 hours later. Layer Rotation will be 16, 64, 32, 128, and of course any of these can be manually set by Admins. No other maps can be set, levels other than Muttrah are unavailable during the event, which should help curb any confusion for those who don't see this memo of a Redux Event. Happy we can try to make this right - and thank you all for your patience and understanding!

Thank you for the link! I've gone ahead and turned it into a redirect to our VG Wiki Server Guide to Falcon BMS. The whole idea is to funnel all information to one place to make it easier to edit when the server is updated. We've been around for ten years, and pages pile up and spread out. Just trying to get it under control and manageable. Cheers!

(sorry, I merged these two because they seemed connected enough...) Yeah, the posts where edited as early as May of this year, which is what I was referring to -- found one thing, then decided to hunt down every reference I could to the version of BMS we host to link it to our VG Wiki or state clearly that we will always be running the very latest version of the sim or make a very visible notice as to why not. Glad you got connected, that blinking issue rings a bell, but I can't recall where I heard it before. Either way, once you're set up, you are good to go and that's the Falcon BMS way, amiright? hahah! PAIN IN THE ASS to get in the door, but once you are in, you can come and go as you please for quite some time... until you stop, then have to get back in that door... then it's PAIN all over again! BLuDKLoT and myself are sorta doing that this year as well - i've not flown in a year or two and same with him, and just getting controls set up again is a bitch and a half. I think we left of with him still needing help with radar cursor, and I left off having issues with MFD extraction (using whatever I had setup before needing update or a new method). Fun fun! We're starting a public VG Air Force with a path to VG Clan Membership for those interested, too - more casual than most VFW's or VFS's, and hopefully with some regular group events and training ops before too long. See you around! (I am literally still back in offline ILS training, controls setup stage, but be back real soon!)

Do we need to run this again next week and get the date correct? Happy to do so... RSVP

We cannot account for what other servers do, but I can personally assure you that our Hades Peak level is exactly default as the PR Dev's designed, since I worked with the levels files just yesterday following our 24 Hour Muttrah event - they all have correct/unchanged 'last-modified' date/time indicating that they have not been changed since updated/downloaded through the PR updater

Don't worry - you are not the only one... turns out that by letting the same event simply repeat each year, it messes up with the actual posted date/time - this is also repeated in my own calendar and notifications. From my point of view, the 24 hours event was slated for an All Day Event on the 21st, same as the day it originally ran in 2019, and through some digging I found that something on the website calendar pointed this as something like 11pm (PST) on the 21st through 11pm (PST) on the 22nd - and separately a post here states the 22nd as well - I have no idea how or why, or whatever went wrong but all apologies!! Enough to make a grown man cry - I thought all our notifications and promotions and reminders made it clear that a 24 hour event was occurring on the 21st and even though I see now how this was all miscommunicated thanks to the calendar, there's nothing much to do about it. I couldn't feel more awful about this, I could have sworn I saw a few of you three on the server playing Muttrah yesterday, but I guess I was mistaken. I've fixed the calendar event so that this does not happen in future years, and if there is anything I can do please don't hesitate to ask... Apologies

Is this what the forums somewhere for our server say? I thought I had tracked down everything showing a 'version' and linked it to our new VG Wiki to finally rid us of that issue (forgotten posts all over the place not getting updated every time the sim updates) If you have a link, I can fix it so no one else gets that same issue. (Glad you got it sorted! Welcome back, Minrah!!)

I would simply be happy if they took damage like proper living things in the Armaverse so that going on the offensive is an option...

Get back to work, Binary! Those bots won't kill themselves! Don't make me chain you to the Southbridge again!

My 2 Cents: It may be wise to run this Training Event on the Mission Testing Server - that way all ranks and objectives can be reset/wiped without affecting current player and mission progress on our main 24/7 SOG Mike Force server. Using this method, you don't need to disable the rank system, and you could potentially use the Admin command listed in the MF thread to adjust any player rank as needed. Would also allow you to post a Password for this training event, since blueberries joining could cause complications, like the mass TK we endured the other day after a coordinated RTB and simultaneous touchdown of both our choppers - was beautiful until it wasn't all because of a dick who is now banned.
