I'd be up for it. Also crappy at the game, though.

Awesome! It's non OA though. Also, I have to use hamachi for the server for the time being, I don't have acces to the router to forward them damn ports.
The network name is: "bay12arma2citiral"
and the password is: "uric"


EDIT: I need a mission to use, can anyone recommend me one?

EDITEDIT: The server is live! I repeat the server is live! You can connect by joining the hamachi server, and then in the ARMA2 server browser, click remote, and then enter my hamachi-IP, "5.166.242.251"!

Says bad version, despite the version numbers matching.

Did you run pure arma 2 or operation arrowhead? If so, just boot arma2 without mods or OA.

I ran combined ops. Pure ARMA2 would take ~3-4 hours to download at this point, unless the free version would work.

Hmm, I don't think the free one will work. But with combined operations, wasen't there an exe in the gamefolder that would just run vanilla arma2 and one to just run OA?

There isn't, but running it is giving me the choice of running OA or CO. Haven't noticed any difference.

EDIT: Free version is working yay

Thread title should change to: "Yes a rainbow, YES! NOW GET YOUR ASS IN THAT VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE, NOT TREE, BAMBAMBAM. Ah that's better".

Uh.
Running CO requires a copy of the original game assets, which usually implies a copy of the original game.
I know the script that the option you're referring to is just creates symbolic links between your copy of ArmA 2 and your copy of OA, so if you don't have ArmA 2, you won't notice a difference.
E: However, to connect to free servers, you will need to run the original game, because it's a different engine.
Combined Operations is just the OA engine with both the OA and A2 assets loaded.

Well, whenever I run a server it's not a problem for my i7 to run squads of 100 per CO, equaling 3200 units. It just causes everyone else to lag ;)

I think it's self explanatory. It includes 7 AI characters and two HMMWV. We got raided by some npcs whilst driving, so all the AI got out and started shooting, and we killed them all! But when the AI had to go back in the vehicle, oh boy.. I guess they probably forgot how to open a door.

But the problem with "hijacking" servers is that 1) Random people could join and ruin everything and 2) You're limited to the scenarios installed on that server, all the servers with good scenarios are not empty.

All above is possible but im offering some ideas to play with bay12'ers.
And what i have seen there aint too many who spoils others games.
Might be some new ones now but they get bored and go back to play wow.
Allso open servers would offer more peopple to play with. Better than AI imo.

Just ought OA! yeppee i guess...
See on field
