Me limbless and elite are playing arma 2 missions right now if anyone wants to join us

Server seems pretty dead today for some reason Might do something tomorrow if there's more people around

...perhaps start an events mailing list?

Pretty sure at least 3 of EFR are up for this. Gonna go get some food cooked now.

Had a blast yesterday. Me & the boys were doing normal ops most of today as well.
Hopefully this gets a few more people playing normal Arma a bit more especially for those who had a virgin run it yesterday.

Yea found another mod that goes well with Blastcore as well

I'll do a quick demo and upload it to my youtube and post it here.
Adds some nice fire and smoke effects and also flocks of birds you can startle if you are moving haphazardly giving away your position.

nice video right here...informative and it makes me wanna try these mods!!

man i wanted to see the birds...do you know if they get startled by other players too? say youre on one side of a field, looking across the field into the tree line, and a player is over there, is it possible for him to cause some birds to get startled?

the forest fire..epic

the fire sounds carried for a way away huh? is that part of the mod? cuz i think the sounds of the fire being that loud would drive me crazy

I tried JTD + DayZ earlier, couldn't get it to work properly when I tried earlier with BE off only thing I haven't tried yet is running the whole mod server side as well as client. This would cause problems on the main hive for people without CBA and JTD though. It'll be enabled next time we play an ARMA 2 mission though definitely.

heh, can i cook my steak on that?

You could just try it, you might be surprised how many of us can understand it , can always take it off again if it doesn't work out (though that is extra work for you, and you already put a massive amount of time in)

Ok so I got it running on dayz, this mod is fucking awesome



Really want to run it on the main server, but not sure I can put up with the waves of people not understanding the error that'll pop up if they login to the server without the mods installed....

i like the idea of birds getting startled, but its somewhat of an unfair advantage if other players dont have it. if its on the server, i will install it because i know others will do it and i want to keep everything on a level playing field.
