I ever think that TOH was a step to ArmaIII


I've just buy it, with the Hind DLC this weekend: What a sweet surprise!


Thanks BIS for this Arma2.5!

As someone who manually combined A2:CO with TKOH, I am vastly relieved @ this message.

I knew it...

I regret buying the Steam version of ToH.
Will I be able to bind my retail ArmAII/CO with the Steam version of ToH ?

I expect so but I'm keeping my fingers crossed anyways.

I never load ToH through Steam, btw.

Having been using A2 and OA with Take On for a while now, will BIS be replacing the old sky-boxes as at the moment they look silly with the new clouds and old clouds?

Will the skydiving scripts now work correctly, as dropping in from 18000ft through the clouds is pretty decent experience too?

Last question, BAF and PMC, can I now use my paid for high quality models instead of the BAF-lite ones?

Yeah, this will work. It will be done via the registry in the same way that 1.6 works out whether to run combined ops or not.

You guys never get tired of being outstanding ?

Great move BIS !

This sounds awesome, but what does it mean exactly? Only that Arma 2 maps can be used for flying in THOH, and Arma 2 units can be used as AI by placing them in the TKOH editor? But you can't play as infantry or as vehicle crew in TKOH, and there will be no multiplayer compatibilty between Arma 2 and TKOH?

That's what we do when we want to kick back and relax a bit.

It means that the assets of both games can be used when TKOH is played. The ability to play on foot or drive other vehicles has been in Take On from the start. There is no MP compatibility between Take On and Arma 2, all clients have to be running TKOH.

Ok, thanks for the info, that makes things a bit more clear. Looking forward very much to this update!
