Thank you mister!

Can you restore Part 3 to the Workshop while you work on v2.0? I'd love to get back to it.
AZCoder  [author] 1 Nov, 2023 @ 12:07pm 
I was working on a refreshed version early in the year, then I lost interest. There was some bugs and problems in the original. Let me think about what I will do. I appreciate the interest in it.

Hey AZCoder,
you got some Update, when Part 3 is available again?
Played your missions once and would be very happy to do so again :)
AZCoder  [author] 21 Mar, 2023 @ 1:01pm 
Sure I'll let you know.
ACKIZ 15 Mar, 2023 @ 1:34pm 
That sounds very good! If you're ever looking for someone to test a mission, I'd be happy to help.
AZCoder  [author] 15 Mar, 2023 @ 1:03pm 
Denmark is playable in part 3 for some of it. I took it down several months ago because it needs updating very badly, and then my computer fried. Fortunately the last of the new parts arrive today to build a new PC, so I'll get back to Dark Tides very soon.

Have completed the second part and am once again thrilled.:steamhappy:
I liked the first part better because I got used to Pyotr Tsarev. In this campaign he is the enemy, but I like him!
I had a problem in the mission where you can use an AC130. The problem was, I didn't need it. Maybe I did something wrong, but after running 2km through the desert, the mission ends successfully.
Still I love the cut scenes, the music is perfectly chosen and you can tell how much attention to detail is behind it.
I really hope I can play Denmark again in the third part!
All the best and many greetings

Doesn't seem to be broken. Your error log will state the problem, but 99% of the time it's a missing DLC or mod. If that's not it, then I need more info on where it crashes etc because it works fine here.

Conspiracy level is broken. Crashes the game

Everybody should clear their calendar and give this epic campaign another run! Congrats on release of the "Director's cut".

nice it out part 2 is out :steamhappy:
DylonND 10 Aug, 2022 @ 2:41pm 
Congrats on the new release AZ :D! Everyone play this campaign right now!
AZCoder  [author] 10 Aug, 2022 @ 1:39pm 
I have just released version 2.0. This is a partial remake, about 50/50 new. The overall flow is the same but there are 3 new missions (replacing older ones) and 2 new cut scenes. The first mission now ties into Harvest Red (official A2 campaign), and all missions were updated in various ways. Natalia of the GRU is now in the campaign (she appeared in the original A2 version) and I cleaned up some of the plot points.

I'm thoroughly enjoying the campaign but there is a few standout bugs.

1. During the cut scene Patriot you have direct control of one of the guards in the armoury with some text shown at the bottom periodically along with a black screen that will fade in and out.

2. The Marksman in your group is armed with an M110 but unfortunately it seems he forgot to attach his scope and silencer.

3. During the mission conspiracy the helicopter AI is having issue with pathfinding. The Blackhawk your team uses has a tendency to bump into the other transport, disembark your group 100m in the air or just refuse to land in general. I got around the refusing to land by ordering my team to disembark but unfortunately this does not turn off the immortality of the player and the enemy officer.

Thank you for making such a great set of campaigns.
AZCoder  [author] 1 Apr, 2021 @ 12:07pm 
It should be fixed now. I am able to load up fine. Problem was that I switched over to a functions library addon that I made, and it didn't get uploaded. It's there now. Let me know any other problems, thanks.
Epsilon 1 Apr, 2021 @ 10:21am 
Hello mate I have a problem, There is only black screen in the first mission mate
Fox 1 Apr, 2021 @ 8:32am 
I'm currently having an issue where when i load into the first mission its just a black screen but i am able to access the map and inventory.
AZCoder  [author] 29 Mar, 2021 @ 3:52pm 
Updated with altered final scene to take advantage of Arts of War assets, and also to sync it up with opening to Dark Tides. Fixed a few other things. More significant changes will come later to fix other items I ran into while playing it first time in 2 years.
AZCoder  [author] 5 Feb, 2020 @ 2:24pm 
Thank you, I really appreciate it.
pishcabueso 5 Feb, 2020 @ 2:10pm 
A very emotional ending, the plot is excellent, I definitely give you 10/10
AZCoder  [author] 27 Aug, 2019 @ 5:27pm 
Good to hear, thanks for the report.
Douggie961 25 Aug, 2019 @ 10:54pm 
Seems my issue with crashing choppers has corrected itself. I really enjoyed the campaign, excellent work!
Douggie961 18 Aug, 2019 @ 9:07pm 
I will give it a go for sure, looking forward to completing it.
AZCoder  [author] 18 Aug, 2019 @ 12:22pm 
I tested Conspiracy twice just now, no helicopters were crashing. I am getting a number of errors on game startup related to RHS and Project OPFOR, but no idea why anyone would have crashing helicopters. Maybe wait for the next OPFOR patch? I suspect it will be very soon and "revert" on that mission. Otherwise I'll have to try some scripting tricks. Don't know if anyone else is experience this or not. Maybe I need to raise the altitude of the choppers, I know if they are too low they can simply crash, although again not on my pc. Could be performance related? Just trying to figure it out is all.
AZCoder  [author] 17 Aug, 2019 @ 3:41pm 
that's .... weird .... I'll see if a recent "patch" has broken it, give me a day or two
Douggie961 16 Aug, 2019 @ 10:51pm 
Is it just me or am I always dying instantly upon starting the conspiracy mission? seems like all the choppers are just falling from the sky and exploding before even being able to eject lol..
AZCoder  [author] 9 Jul, 2019 @ 5:57pm 
LOL thanks!

What the fuck man. What. The. Fuck. Just finished Gambit Royale. Great campaign, did not expect that at the end. But all in all, that was pretty good. It was fun going from Shadow Fall to Gambit Royale to kinda see both sides. Great work and hope the see the next installment soon
AZCoder  [author] 27 Jun, 2019 @ 4:52pm 
wb94509 24 Jun, 2019 @ 12:16pm 
Is there a link to part 1? Not sure what it's called and didn't want to start this halfway through lol
AZCoder  [author] 29 May, 2019 @ 7:29pm 
Hollywood?! You clearly got something different out of the campaign than most people or what I intended. The protagonist is not trying to be a hero and shows himself as a normal guy with faults and internal struggles with his inner demons and is seeking atonement for his own failures, however misguided that may be. It's pulled from my own past (symbollically not literally) and with the hope that you can come out as a better person at the end of the day.

I've read many tier 1 books (Luttrell, Marcinko, etc) and compared to real life examples, the final mission here is not that difficult. Real tier 1 would approach it a little differently, but Arma can't handle that, at least not in single-player. It's the climax of the campaign, some approaches are better than others, if I had made it easier then players would have been saying it was too easy & unsatisfying. It was heavily tested with other players prior to release.

Anyway ... I completely understand if it's not to your tastes.
Goma 29 May, 2019 @ 6:46am 
I had to take out like 40 men with 4 men squad in the last mission which is crazy...
I hate Arma scenarios that require the player to be a "hero" in general, and the story was also Hollywoodish but it's just my taste.
AZCoder  [author] 14 Mar, 2019 @ 4:38pm 
Fixed a bug with end2 missing from the final mission which prevented final scene from running.
AZCoder  [author] 12 Mar, 2019 @ 4:52pm 
Updated campaign released. Includes several fixes, 4 caused by the recent BI patch.
AZCoder  [author] 10 Mar, 2019 @ 3:34pm 
I fixed the ammo problem in mission 2. Testing campaign since we just had a BI patch as well. Already I'm hearing loud vehicle in opening scene that wasn't noisy before. It may take awhile to validate the campaign, but I will release an update soon. Maybe today or tomorrow.
AZCoder  [author] 10 Mar, 2019 @ 2:59pm 
I'll check into that PaindaBear, thanks. Meanwhile I've been testing the invincibility bug. I have found that it's actually quite hard to get killed by the AI using the RHS vests. With no special scripts running, I can take on a 4-man fire team at close range all alone, kill them all and survive with only moderate damage because they usually do body shots which absorb 100% of the damage (most of the time). I do have a script running in the campaign which makes the problem worse, but at the time I released this, it was a lot easier to get whacked by the enemy. I may just remove my script entirely. The goal was to prolong your ability to fight with injuries, but at this point it has taken the challenge out of the missions.
ADG 1 Mar, 2019 @ 10:24pm 
Update: MK11 Mod 0 ammo has old class name. May need to be updated.
ADG 1 Mar, 2019 @ 10:17pm 
Teammate #2 in Scourge mission has ammo that doesn't work with his weapon. 20rd M14 / MK11 Mod 0 (EC). Is there a way to fix whatever issue I'm running into?
Erinyes 23 Feb, 2019 @ 6:24pm 
Great,I'd like to support your repair work.
AZCoder  [author] 23 Feb, 2019 @ 3:02pm 
Not sure how that's plot related? It's a bug that will be fixed eventually. I know what's wrong, but want to make sure anything else on my list is addressed before I release it again.
Erinyes 23 Feb, 2019 @ 5:54am 
The plot of the beginning and ending can be 5 stars, and the plot in the middle is not great. My teammates are all elites,they have been wounded by a few shots and have not died?:steammocking:
AZCoder  [author] 5 Jan, 2019 @ 5:30pm 
Do you have a BI account, it would be easier to discuss on the forum there https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/215815-sp-camp-gambit-royale/ I'm just not following your situation in the mission.
Hontah 5 Jan, 2019 @ 10:00am 
Hello again, I found the swat team then I gotta find some video recording and I did find the pc but it says i need to do something else then come back to it.
AZCoder  [author] 3 Jan, 2019 @ 3:58pm 
You mean Infiltrator on Shapur? It's probably what you mean. There are 2 objectives at one location, the doors of one is exact opposite facing the door of the other, and you should be able to see through windows to get an idea.
Hontah 3 Jan, 2019 @ 11:43am 
Stuck on the mission "Find Evidence" I gotta search nearby houses and I've done that still nothing, help?
Hontah 3 Jan, 2019 @ 6:55am 
got you thanks !
