SemlerPDX =VG= LAN_WROTE ... We will be including this mod, it has already been discussed. We also want to ensure that we have a "RECON" class of helicopter for a special set of side missions just for it. In Vanilla, it will be the AH-J6, to have a Laser Designator and IR/NVG as showin in PINS. I guess if we have to settle, it will wait for the Addon Version, but then again, I've never been one to settle - I've been told already the things I've proposed should be addons, but I want to do as much initially in the Vanilla version for the public and the masses of Arma players who do not use mods (yet). I forgot to mention, Blake's addon is mostly client side. But you do need one line in the init script for camera and another one for laser, attack designation works without having those two enabled.

Well the idea behind no mods is to prevent hacking / cheating but with very few players playing on the server I don't see how that is an issue. Hacks will always be created and the only way to deal with them is banning the involved. I would ofc like it if the VG server allowed for optional mods like sound mods and SThud / STmovement, also shacktac is working on a new mod for littlebirds that allow for more realistic scenarios to be played out. Precision disembarking, shooting from the littlebird as a passenger etc.

Addon that gives the CAS pilot more information and options. Also made my own video about it, too much noise from the A-10 so just skipped that but proved that you can get it setup clientside in less than 5minutes. ---- http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?129707-Blake-s-PINS-%28Pseudo-Inertial-Navigation-System%29-and-Bombing&highlight=Blake%27s+PINS+Bombing.+V0.5+Alpha Food for thought? Edit-PITN embed video.

SavageCDN =VG= LAN_WROTE ... Yeah if I see him I'll let him know you are stalking him :) Cheer, last I checked he didn't have access to M86 PDM's :p

Cool beans!

Was it just me, Mathisen, Riddle and Acer from Norway who played on the insurgency server? I would also like to come in contact with Acer but never got a means of contacting him outside of game, anyone know?

http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLC558663C89A10E18 Another custom mission made by Nkenny, had some problems during the first mission due to ACRE not cooperating fully. On a brighter note I finally learned how to do a merger in virtual dub to avoid getting tons of files, but still have to split them due to youtube's 2gb limitation on files. Also looking for some feedback on the videos, I myself prefer a total recording of the entire mission but then again some people might find that tedious. Still haven't gotten motivated enough for any fancy editing of the raw footage but that might change once I get moved into my new apartment. After 600 hours + played on the VG insurgency server I dare say the best experiences I've had have been on the ground, doing normal grunt work. But for the most part I've not found enough people that actually work as a team and that sadness me and I'm sure I'm not alone in this. When the VG guys are on I know what I can expect but the normal public is hit or miss, also a tad annoyed that I had not fallen completely for ACE / ACRE when VG had a server for that but thats on me ^^ I still have fond memories of doing a 20 caches OP with 4 like-minded individuals and a single hummer /w a trusty 50cal racing from cache to cache while the general public would just attack the nearest squares and provide us with intel. Or getting shot down in the blackhawk with 10+ people in the back trying to bring it down without killing everyone. Logging on late in the night to play with the American gang or early in the morning, but that time seems to have passed.

Looking forward to moving into the new appartment, then I should have more time for ARMA :p

Hooked up with some Norwegians on the VG Insurgency server several months back that invited me to one of their private sessions, hadn't taken them up on their offer till a few days ago.Here is a footage from my perspective Lima 2-4 and also a different viewpoint from Lima 1-4, was fun but still made some mistakes during that short mission.Practice makes perfect ;) Lima 2-4 http://youtu.be/xLYre8CZCp8?hd=1 Lima 1-4 http://www.own3d.tv/video/397433/ARMA_2_-_Nopryl_coop_-_17.01.2012

Well I myself use a Asus P8Z68-V PRO mobo and it should suit your requirements. But using two GPU's might make things cramped if you use many of the slots. http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/P8Z68V_PRO/#specifications GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 is also a good option, it has gotten good reviews as well and has a similar package. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3853#ov

Subbed, seems like something I might enjoy watching.

Merry Christmas everyone :D

You offer cool game play and fairly high up time on the servers, but most importantly a community with people who take their spare time seriously. After all I play in my spare time and I want to get the best experience I can out of it so I seek out like minded individuals, I found that on your ARMA Coop server when I randomly joined it some months back.. Never saw a reason to leave after that, I came for the unique opportunities Insurgency gives me and stayed for the people.

Recent picture taken after I checked the average team player on the coop server :p

Figured it out, sixupdater grabs the newest version around. Downloaded Cba directly from their homepage and that worked just fine.

Well JSRS and Blastcore both depend on CBA, it goes ahead and whine about not having a proper key for this server or whatever. Downloaded JSRS and blastcore from your sources now. Tried to load arma without cba and it asks for it, if I load it with I get kicked since I have CBA O.o

Get a error message when I connect, loaded cba & the mods from six updater.

Does this actually work? Afaik they both depend on CBA.

Well powerful computer helps, 2-3 minutes of raw footage takes roughly 4gb of hdd space so big storage does not hurt. But being able to play while recording is key, if your fps struggles you can record at half size and upscale to HD, I can link a guide if you want.

Not sure if we have a thread about this already so just made one. Record ingame with fraps using full size @ 30 fps, then encode using vdub and mvk files end up being 3/100th of the raw file and it stays full HD. Anyhow at University right now but I can upload my encoded stuff if you want to have a look at it, should take me roughly 5-6 hours to upload what I have atm.

But as it is I'm leaning towards a 6950 card which I'll eventually have two of.

WhiteWolf LAN_WROTE ... =VG= BLuDKLoT LAN_WROTE ... Whitewolf is pretty savvy with gear maybe he'll post up something useful. I'm using 5870's and I struggle with some newer games, so stay away from those. wow i am sooo late !!! $900 USED for a GTX 590? they are around $750 BRAN NEW! where u live ? Not a typo ;) I do mean USD as in your currency. Prices has dropped to 877 USD but still expensive, I live in Norway the land of oil and expensive stuff.

I'd try and disconnect anything that's not needed for a boot, load up bios and disable anything none essential. Let it run for awhile and keep an eye on voltages and temp. If it crashes then I'd say either the mobo or cpu has bit the bullet. But if it does not crash just idling in bios try and boot and start testing memory and harddrives, then the pci slot holders. Trying a different PSU can also be an idea.

Well I can't answer you on the Arma VS PR stuff but Arma now has a PR mod for whatever that is worth. To play on either server you need Arma 2 and Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead, the two DLC "PMC" and "BAF" is entirely optional, they only add better textures and campaign. And I've been running Arma on steam since I got it with no problems. As for teamplay that really depends, I'd like to say that the VG servers are overflowing with skilled players that communicate well but that would be a lie. Truth is that a minority are very much into the teamplay stuff and work well as a team but for the rest of the public players it's fairly random, Without anything to base it on I think the PR mod for Arma has a more teamplay based following.

Seems like the colt is staying on map after it's been called in, due to it being a "opfor" craft? When it's on ACR everyone is using it as transport.
