LEA - Loadout Editor For ArmA 2 Combined Operations and ACE 2

[DukeNukeM.]

Hi i would like to ask, under the 'preferences' button in 'initialize @LEA with selected profile', the 'goggles' refers to the Binocular item and not the goggles? i've double checked the loadout.sqf with and without it checked, might want to rename it to 'Binocular', to not cause confusion?

Also, is there a way to give players 'ACE_Map' when ACE is enabled and normal 'ItemMap' when ACE is not enabled? I find that i some missions i dont have a map if i take 'ItemMap' in ACE.

Thanks and love this addon!!!

Indeed it references the Binocular. No problem to change name.

ok didn't know that bug from ACE. So yes I will make change to give the ACE Map when ACE selected in Addon Manager.

Or you may force all text at smaller Size 8 Segoe UI.

So I made some change in LEA display so that Default font size is sets to 11 pixels in all buttons, textfields etc. I'll give you soon access to a beta for you to test.

Actually it's caused by ACE's Map Module feature which is an optional module you place on the map that removes all ItemMap from the game requiring you manually add the ACE_Map which has some limitations and minor benefits - like not being able to look at the map while moving and being able to share your map with people who do not have one.

It's off by default.

I may feature both ACE_Map and ItemMap into Preferences panel so that one can choose

So if this 'Map module' feature is in not the mission, if one has 'ACE_Map' and not 'ItemMap', does it work correctly? I haven't tested this out yet, just thought of it.

Not sure I haven't tried it myself either

Anyone else getting the 'no entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons."insert pack here"' error when trying to load a loadout that has any kind of ruck in it?

Please be more precise. A OA ruck is not the same as a ACE ruck. You may get also this error if you try to add a OA Ruck to a ArmA 2 unit or unit addon based on it. This is a game limitation. Be also sure to run LEA 1.3.57

My apologies, I have tried several rucks with ACE disable under the addons screen. The rucks that I have tried from memory are: "US_Assault_Pack_EP1", "CZ_Backpack_EP1", "US_Backpack_EP1" and "US_Patrol_Pack_EP1". I have tried loading them to a USMC Squad Leader and USMC Force Recon Team Leader. I'm gonna go ahead and assume now that it is because these are not USMC packs? If not then are there any USMC packs available in LEA (such as the molle assault pack I've seen a few guys wearing ingame)? I am running the latest version of LEA. Also another question if you're willing, I am having an issue where despite following the correct instructions, I cannot seem to be able to toggle a rifle between on back and in hands, the option just never lights up for me when selecting a gun. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I've done it with sniper rifles, M4's and M16's including the one in the example screenshot on the wiki.

USMC units are from ArmA 2 game not OA game. That's why you can't give OA ruck to this units. This a limitation from ArmA 2, nothing to see with LEA. If you want to give this units a ruck you must use ACE mod and configure LEA to be use with ACE (Help Menu --> Addon Manager).

There is also no relation between the side of a unit and the ruck you can give to it. In LEA select ALL in Faction Filter so that you will be able to add any ruck to your unit.

This is a ACE feature as long as Weight computation and Wounds System. You must configure LEA to use ACE and of course have ACE mod installed into your game.
