@Lazy Dog
Have you tried to wait a bit and let the other squads do all the work?
Otther than that you could try to kill all enemies before starting the download...
Lazy Dog 15 Jan, 2017 @ 2:45pm 
@Luca On my first attempt, every friendly AI died before I was able to initiate laptop download. Even after with trying different routes, I end up with at most 3 friendly AIs before commencing the download.

@Lazy Dog
What exactly was your Problem?
Lazy Dog 14 Jan, 2017 @ 10:20am 
The balance of this game is seriously wrong. After 5 attempts, I've never been able to finish downloading the laptop.

@Sheev Racer
Well I wanted the players to have to look for the second Laptop, thats why I didn't mark it.
And well, mostly Spec-Ops Scenarios are less work and somewhat easier to make than large scale Missions/Battles. However I wouldn't really describe this mission as "big" since it's still small compared to some other Missions...

Took me a bit to find the laptop. I expected it to be the laptop/terminal on top of the Device. Really liked the insertion, and fighting uphill into the base was fun. It's fun to play as a grunt in a bigger force, since most steam missions are small spec-ops missions.

I didn't read the firsts posts. I finally found Laptop#2. Nice game, thank you.
yoyo83 3 Sep, 2016 @ 3:12am 
can't download data package#2 I don't even see a laptop !
for data package#1 you have to do a step over (key "V") to get close enough to download.
Luca  [author] 2 Aug, 2016 @ 3:13pm 
@Smacks (Marlon)
Nothing to fix, make sure you get close enough to the right Laptops and then use the Scrollwheel!
And thanks!
Smacks 2 Aug, 2016 @ 2:34pm 
I can't download the data, please fix this! But everything else worked fine Good Mission
Luca  [author] 16 Jul, 2016 @ 3:47am 
@davejonesbkk
The download should work, make sure you are close enough. The Music Volume has to be set through your gamemenu, nothing I can do about that it's up to you.
Concerning the AI, I'm not sure, I will have a look and try to position one of the other Squads to repel the attack...
Thanks for your Feedback :)
davejonesbkk 15 Jul, 2016 @ 10:01pm 
cant download the data at all, no option comes up in scroll options. Can you tweak the team AI actions when the enemy reinforcements turnup? They stand around in crap positions and you pretty much have to position yourself ready for when they turn up and take them out yourself. Music is a bit too loud when it kicks in too and overwhelms the game sounds.

Apart from that its pretty good

@H&G Fighter Squad #002
What exactly doesn't work? Have you got the Sneakpeak Version? Are you using any Mods?

@diddi
Ehm...okay!? Firstly, you don't have to subscribe to any channel of mine! I will try to help you either way.
So, first of you need to own Arma 3 AND the Apex-DLC. When you are in your Steamlibary rightclick on Arma 3 (in the Gameslist on your left side) and select "properties".
Now you click on "Betas" and select the "Apex Sneak Preview".
After that a download should start, once it's done subscribe to the Mission/s you want to play. After that's done simply launch Arma and go to "Scenarios" and select the Mission you want to play...
diddi 25 Jun, 2016 @ 2:34pm 
hey guy, i had a hart time understanding u but yet i enjoyed it a lot! i promisse to subscribe to ur channels if u have any, if you explane to me in short easy steps how to run and play those damned missions and mods
Luca  [author] 25 Jun, 2016 @ 1:23pm 
@wookie
Haha nice to hear you still did it :D
I will have a look at the range for the Option to appear.
wookie 25 Jun, 2016 @ 12:23pm 
When I was done downloading all of my team had died and the enemy surrounded the building... still won xD.
Only improvement would be to increase the "download" trigger area. I had a hard time getting it to appear even though I was looking directly at the laptop.
Luca  [author] 25 Jun, 2016 @ 6:39am 
@Feldwebel
Step 1: Find the Laptop
Step 2: Look at it
Step 3: Use the Scrollwheel and select "Download"
Step 4: ???
Step 5: Profit

how can i download the data in the mission after capturing the facility
Luca  [author] 25 Jun, 2016 @ 4:10am 
@Yung Whizkay
Okay, good :D

I know about the DisableAI Commands but thanks non the less.
I also know about the Markers and you can also place invisible Markers via the Editor but I don't like to teleport them cause they are in a car and that would just make things very strange...
Hopefully BI fixes some of the Pathfinding Issues and I will just add more Waypoints for the Car so that it is forced to follow the Streets.
SiC 25 Jun, 2016 @ 2:57am 
You might be able to use this for the player's team: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/disableAI

If you disable some stuff like Autotarget or Autocombat, they might not switch to combat mode automatically. Then you can re-enable them at a later point in the mission.

As for the AI getting stuck, I don't know what they are getting stuck on, but perhaps you might be able to teleport them to a marker (make it invisible though the ini.sqf) to get them past where-ever they get stuck.
Luca  [author] 25 Jun, 2016 @ 2:48am 
@[TDNL]SiC
First of thanks for your Feedback!
Normally a Squad of enemies should arrive while the Player is downloading but sometimes the AI gets stuck..

I will add markers (thanks for the suggestion) and the AI always goes into Combatmode wich is an Arma Thing and wich I can't really fix, however I will try to add some Waypoints and see if that helps!
SiC 24 Jun, 2016 @ 3:43pm 
Some constructive feedback: there seems to be a lot of unnecessary downtime. The downloading thing looks cool, but the player is essentially waiting for it to finish without anything else going on.

And at the start, maybe some markers for LZ's would be nice because I had no idea where we were supposed to land, I got separated and had to walk a bit to get back to the team. The walk to base took a bit too, though part of that is because the AI team went into combat mode and didn't leave it for several minutes with nothing going on. Other than that though, the base was dressed up pretty nicely and the firefight there was intense, so that was good.

It's called "Into the Sun" and is part of the Marksmen DLC.

That musci that starts after you kill the sniper is great, what is the name of it? Just like confliction, I couldn't find it anywhere.
Kieran1 23 Jun, 2016 @ 1:22pm 
whats the music when you start to open fire on CSAT, I cant find the name anywhere
Luca  [author] 23 Jun, 2016 @ 10:00am 
@Tin Can™
Thanks, you should wait until ACE is updated before using it :D

@MaddogITB
You have to find the Laptops (one at the strange Machine in the White Building and one on a desk in on the upper floor). Just look at them and use the scrollwheel and you should get an Option to start the download.

@neob
Thanks, I'll do! :D

@FELL - Roleplay.co.uk
I'm working on it, should be avaiable in a few days...
