thx BIS for this one, and the one before, the one before before, and ...

one question: is "-malloc" still alive, meaning setting of "-malloc = [value]" takes influence ?

Just played a round, and noticed that no AI member of my group did announce enemies that they saw. They would shoot, but never say that they saw one.

I tried to reproduce it in a test mission, but there it didn't happen... anyone seen similar ? I would say it's just cosmic rays, but since the "reveal" functionality was affected by this beta, I'd though I'd better mention it.

reveal is a scripting command. it should not effect normal AI detection.

reveal is a scripting command that affects and is affected by the same functionality as the AI detection mechanism. As such, the concepts might interact.

As I said, I noticed this, i.e. during one mission NO group member revealed any enemy target. Whether it has something to do with the scripting command or not is not important, really, but since the functionality of revealing targets was obviously affected, I thought I'd mention it.

Both in ARMA2_OA_Build_85598 and the latest ARMA2_OA_Build_85680 ( i don't know about earlier beta patches i didn't used em ) i have problem with my sound that isn't there in the stable version.

More precise i have a constant tsik tsik sound like noise especially on heavy looped sounds like the Engine of a truck bike etc. It is also very noticeable when someone is speaking over VON , again the same tsik tsik sound .

One strange thing though is that when i alt tab ( like now that im writing this post ) and all the sounds are muted except VON i can here Clearly the guys speaking without the tsik tsik noise


You can take a look at this video for better understanding of my problem , the problem begins to be noticeable when im on vehicle

Holy shit, BIS, thank you so much for the reveal setting, now it will be much easier to make the AI see things at night.
Thanks a lot!!
