JiF's Gaming Community

You should come give us another look Mike, now that the queues are gone for the most part. Would love to see you in game. I'm: Edoas Tenner Ozube Devynn on the Republic side (which is where I play mostly). We also have a guild on the Imperial side on the same server (Shadow Hand). There I'm: Pritcha...

If anyone here plans on playing SWtOR I'm part of a great bunch of folks that are old SWG players. From what I've seen of JiF you guys would fit right in. We'll be having an Imperial guild on the Shadow Hand server named Lost, and a Republic guild on the same server named Found. It's a PvE server bu...

This game is greatness. That is all.

I played a couple of hyper-realism missions with an old group at night. No night-vision, no maps for anyone but the leader, no radios for anyone but the leader, you could only hear the guy to your left and right. Was pretty intense actually, but you had to be in that realism mindset.

Hey Pop! Started sync'ing to server last night, and still going =) Had two files just refuse to come down, from ACEX, so I'm trying to get them from Armaholic now. Soon as I'm all sync'd up again I'll look for you guys on the field. I had a hankering to make a couple missions again, so might have so...

That's interesting.

Is the 1944 mod still running on the server? I never have got that, but would love to Arma it up with you guys again.

Hey guys. Just an fyi that Steam finally decided to update.

If I'm not mistaken, I'm running the 'lite' version of this. It isn't quite as cpu intensive, and plays nicer with ACE. There were some real problems with this and ACE at first. I use a pretty decent sound mod a guy from another ArmA group put together. It's pretty big, but worth every bit of space ...

Hey Doc. Got mission switching to work today. Switched to a mission (Wildcat), Pop signed on, so I stopped mid-mission and tried to change mission again. The title and description changed, but the roles got stuck on the previous mission (Wildcat). Wont change for me no matter how many times I try an...

Server down as of 9:30am, 1/26. Just fyi

Server down this morning, just fyi

I was able to sync up with the JiF server this morning.

On a side note, I was able to vote myself admin, but the map switching wasn't working. I could see the mission list, browse to another mission, etc. but the map never switched, just reverted to Domination (where it was).

I would say latest stable version is probably the best bet. How often to they release a version and label it stable? The less updates the better probably, but would be nice to get new toys every now and then =) And I do think Yoma's AddOn Sync is nice. Once you get it all plugged in, it's a quick co...

This is the Chernarus map, which is the map included with Arma II. If you get/have just Operation Arrowhead you wont have this map, but you will with Combined Ops. There are a lot of woods, and it changes the game dynamically from playing in the desert. Definitely a good idea, in my opinion, to have...

... Once you get some mission editors making missions there is no limit. Arma is a true strategic/tactical military sandbox. It's like playdoh for grown ups! On this note, if anyone has questions about the editor let me know. I've done a ton of research and have a nice set of links to helpful stuff...
