Just played this one again, forgot how good it was. I'd love to see another one based on tet offensive

Insane Content. Makes most Arma missions look like trash

This is brilliant

Ok, i updated it again. looks to be working.

@Mike, nvm, it looks like i also introduced an error with my last update. Ill fix and try to re-upoad today.

Hey mike_, no, that is not normal. Friendly patrols should be sent out. Once an enemy scout is captured, contact should begin shortly after. Are you using any extra mods? I know that "SOG AI" and "Anti Wall Glitch Fix" are known to cause similar problems.

Hi

When playing as Alpha (Solo with AI) i get to the 'Maintain Security' objective and nothing happens. No enemies spawn or new objectives appear. Is this normal? or has something gone wrong, i have started building sandbags and dropping some MG's at this point

hey, thank ya, i appreciate it. Im glad its working for ya

Ahhh, I had the incorrect name for the mission file in the server.cfg. All is working now, and all I can say is this is f^%$&^% an amazing mission. Lots of detail and hard work went into this. This is awesome. Thank you for making this.

I wasn't getting any errors on my end, but I went ahead and updated the mod. I needed to fix a error in the stringtable anyway. This is how i have my command line: (mod=vn;@CBA_A3;@XRAY). I just change the mod name on the server because by default it has the spaces in it.

The mod in my Workshop folder and our dedicated is 1.56GB. I removed it from the server and added it again. I'm still getting the same error. I'm launching LZ Xray via mod= @lzxray; in our server startup config.

Sounds like the version you have for this mod is corrupted or incomplete. Might want to try re-downloading. Ill load it up on my server to double check. Haven't looked at it in a while.

SOG is configured and CBA is listed before XRAY_Files. The error that stops the server start is

" ErrorMessage: Data file too short 'mpmissions\XRAY_Files.pbo'. Expected 1682558459 B, got 87932928 B
Application terminated intentionally
ErrorMessage: Data file too short 'mpmissions\XRAY_Files.pbo'. Expected 1682558459 B, got 87932928 B"

You just need to have your server configured for SOG, and make sure CBA is listed before XRAY_Files in your modlist.

How do you get this to play on a dedicated server?

Played with my group on dedicated, no issues. Exceptional mission! Well done!!

@Perk Duck, unfortunately life got in the way and I haven't been able to finish it yet. Hopefully things will clear up soon so I have time to finish it. It will be its own new version. It was almost done when I had to put it on the back-burner.

Hey sky, I was just wondering what the status was of your remade black hawk down mission? I believe you said before you were going to remake it for co-op with AI support. thank you.

@seanl.bot7 if you're looking for more people to do this with on co-op I'm down, hit me up.

This battle is Great! Thank you! Highly recommend the unsung sog compatible everybody because you cant beat a danger close sky raider air strike! Everything about this scenario is awesome super impressed!

i see tx i will try without it

I'm not sure if it is causing your specific issue, but unfortunately SOG AI is not compatible with this mission.

SOG AI, except from this nothing

Do you happen to be running any extra mods? I've been told an issue like this can happen with certain mods loaded.

1 (player) for some reason when we reach LZ X-ray and the units start the patrol the mission breaks and nothing else happens?

Hi, It was a great scenario mission with the best CDLC, I liked it, thank you.

With Arma 3 platform update 2.14 don't needed that edit Arma 3 profile file, just select very low " objects " option (Scene Complexity) in video settings and adittional set overal and object view distance to 500.

You have a very strong graphics card and you can easily get at least 50 frames per second.

The biggest impact on frame rate is the numbers of AI simulation and map density (here, forest trees) and visual effects such as explosions, smoke. and etc .

I hope I could help.

Hey Sky. Now it works! But the bad news are the performance is unplayable for me!

When Explosions or smoke come in the Game my fps drops under 10........ with 3080 12 GB :-))


The Idea is good, for the Engine.....its not your fail :-) maybe with reforger Things will be better!

thks for the help!

@limbargo, ya it sounds bugged for you. You might want to delete the mission pbo and re-subsrcibe to it. Also, you have access to the "Admin Control Panel" via your action menu with the mouse wheel, that will let you start the mission from different points.

The patrols sound correct, but Bravo 1-1 is supposed to find a scout and immediately bring them back to the LZ. The intial part should take about than 5-minutes.

Hey Sky!

Thanks for the answer.

First ive played the first person above from the List. than from the Second or third Try i played other people, Squad leaders or other people.

The landing on Xray works fine, everybody go in position and nothing happend??? The three units go on Patrol (The second stay in range and dont go, maybe buggy)

ive played 2 Trys 1 Reallifehour and than it was to booring :-)

Hey Limbargo. I just tested and found no issues. I may need more information from you. What role were you playing and how far did the mission get? Was the NVA scout ever captured? Also, if you are playing as a squad leader, it is important that you reach every "MOVE" waypoint you are assigned.

Hey Sky!

The Idea from the Mod is nice but it does not work for me?

After the landing in LZ XRAY nothing happend?

The Troups walk theire Patrols and nothing happend??

Whats Wrong?

Can You help me?

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

the is the absolute best mission EVER!!! the history in it makes it the best!
there can be soo many amazing missions made after real world event.
you really took this mission to the next level!

great with AI voices and command....loving it so far

Hey waystin2! Right on, let me know if you have any questions.

Hello Sky! We ran the Day of The rangers a few years back. I plan on loading this one out on our dedi and if all goes well I will run the squad through the whole setup. Looks fun!

Thank you! I sent you a request. Just hit me up there when you would like to run it, and I can set it up for ya

Sky Dong heck yea man! I'd love to give it a try! Your work is outstanding, keep it up bro!

I’m sorry you are experiencing poor performance. I’ve been testing it this morning and stay typically above 30 on my laptop and 40 on my desktop (2080 ti) while hosting locally. On my dedicated I’m getting much higher. I need to make some ui changes anyway, so I’ll try to squeeze more performance out if it in the next update. In the meantime, you are free to test it out on my dedicated server to see how that works for you.

I'm only getting 15-18 FPS playing singleplayer with a 3060 ti...

Ya, that shouldn't happen. It should be mostly good performance throughout, with some occasional dips. It can also depend on the player count and the unit limit that is set in-game. I'll see if I can do some testing here soon.

Sky Dong the entire time

@AReid17, is there a specific point where it is laggy for you? Or the entire time?

Sky Dong any reason why so laggy?

@Saratoga, yes, you just have to host a private LAN server. Mission progress is saved to your profile.

Is there any way to play this in singleplayer?

@SirBassi, there should be no copyright issues, as i own commercial rights to the songs in the cutscenes. Thanks for playing and feel free to comment any additional concerns you may have.

Hi Sky Dong, followed this Mod here since your first Release and direction eastern I think its time to play with my friends first time. And I am really excited for. Just a short question about the Cutscnes / Music: Is this "Streamerfriendly"? Means no Copyright issues to expect? Thanks a lot four your comment and for this great Mission :-)

@Sleaz, hmm, I'm not sure. I know there are mods out there that'll give you Zeus access, though.
