gday eX!

I am happy to introduce you our new game mode for Operation Arrowhead called A&S ProMode.

From small to large scale, both action packed and tactical battles with up to 12on12 players
in a dynamic environment that focus on teamplay and mission objectives!


The highlights:

Asymetric A&D gameplay ([Only Registered Users Can See Links] omode:ans_core_concept.jpg) combined with AAS zone system ([Only Registered Users Can See Links] ure:a_s_promode:different_zones.jpg).
Twelve classes to choose from ([Only Registered Users Can See Links] ure:a_s_promode:spawn_choose_class.jpg) with different equipment and skills like: ([Only Registered Users Can See Links] ure:a_s_promode:different_classes.jpg)
Medic type classes with the ability to revive fallen or (area) heal wounded team mates ([Only Registered Users Can See Links] omode:revive_unit.jpg).
Or officer respawn, HALO jump, artillery strike, repair tires, flip cars, cut fences and more to come.
Custom spawn menu to select forward spawn or change class ([Only Registered Users Can See Links]).
Custom HUD to guide players ([Only Registered Users Can See Links] ure:a_s_promode:aas_interface.jpg).
Small to large scale missions; Very diverse landscape and settings (daytime/weather/fog/viewdistance).
16 missions Takistan ([Only Registered Users Can See Links] a_s_promode:mission_list); New missions every week (130+ for A2OA).
Optional AI mode to get into A&S ProMode or as reinforcements with low player numbers ([Only Registered Users Can See Links]).
Highly configurable ([Only Registered Users Can See Links]).

Kju,
what a honour have you in our forum!
Thanks for the info.
We will take a look at AAS for sure, since we played it in armaII too.
... as soon as we can restart our server...!

[kju]

You are welcome QuartoColono. :cheers1:

Do you mean technical problems or to get the new OA server up?

[QuartoColono]

nop, tecnical problem with the "old" server once we have patched it at the 1.07 version...
I see the server, I load the mission, I choose the slot and after that the server put me into a endless wait for host!

[kju]

Yes it is a bad bug. :(

You can avoid it with -exThreads=1.

In OA it is already fixed. See CIT:

[QuartoColono]

[kju]

No worries. :)

I tryed the -exThreads=1 and it works!
Could you tell me please if is possible to run on the same server ArmA II and OA at the same time?
If it's possible how I can do it?

Thanks a lot.

Hm there are three variants:

a2 only server - only clients with a2 exe can join
oa only server - only clients with oa exe can join (not A2OA / CO - combined game)
a2oa server - oa only and a2oa clients can join. if mission needs a2 too, oa only players will get dropped

does that help?

[QuartoColono]

Yes it helps, Thankyou.
That means I can install a a2oa server...
Now I need to find the game to be installed on server...
Any suggestion?
Forgive me but I'm not an expert as you can see...

[kju]

We can do a server to server transfer, if you are able to crate a FTP acc with write
permission and sent me the data. How does that sound?

Best to organize this via skype chat - do you have it?

[QuartoColono]

Thanks again, i sent you a PM
