Talked briefly with Gunny and sent mail to Med, but never did get a reply. Best of luck everyone, I am sure the corp is going to do great. If you pass by me in space say hi, or more likely, blow me up.. It was good to see you all and do a little catching up. Wish id gotten to chat with a few more of you but can't win em all!

Sounds like its running then. Have you tried starting the game from another computer and logging into your new server? I doubt the server will allow you to host and play on the same machine, but I could be wrong.

Oh I was quite a scrapper in my youth. Rough housing and donny brook were my two best friends... But as to a specific cause.. not really sure. The optic nerve damage was likely from plain old eye strain over years and years of heavy duty gaming and work. Lot of days I was puttin' in 20 hour days on the ol' compy. Apparently smoking didnt help... so dont smoke Halo... and turn off the computer every now and then. EDIT: Check this out for more: http://smoking.ygoy.com/2007/11/20/smoking...ive-eye-damage/ Blind Death... yay me...

Detached retina... there is also damage to the optic nerve in both eyes. I can see, just have to be very careful I dont strain anything.

Plopped in the Little Birds mod and it connects... thanks much.

Thank you, young Padawan... didnt realize it had been completed for ARMA2... sooo...just install the mod then?

What is this ACE you speak of.... Thought that was for ARMA1

Wow. is this cool or what.... and another one too.. Jeez.... modders are doing some great stuff.

OMG Ath... you are a frickin' genius. And we just talked about that too...jeepers, I should have thought of that. I bow to your superiority. Your ARMA bug kung fu is strong.

Well there's the million dollar question... Short answer is "yes". At least as a forum goer and occasional EVE player. I doubt you will see tags behind my name again. I broke trust with Sparta by leaving with no reason provided and there are Spartans who really didn't appreciate that much. Completely understandable and expected. That's how I would feel too, if the shoe was on the other foot. I've been lurking for awhile now... and probably would still be if Delta hadn't snagged me the other morning. Once "caught" though I decided it was time to stand up and face the music. The long answer is simply that I will stay as long as I am allowed to.

My game wont connect to the Sparta servers, apparently it generates an error of some sort that I cant see. Something to do with addons being wrong, but I have none... Thats okay though, I had a ton of fun making my little mission. I hope someone plays it once or twice.... Its super simple but I hope it is entertaining anyway. I think it shows my somewhat odd sense of humor. Nice to see interest in tactical coop building again...

I play a lot of RTS style games...Starcraft, Civ, Age of Empires, but they lack the social aspect as I dont play them multiplayer. Tried Civ in MP once and it was so full of 8 year olds I never bothered again... If I keep the brightness turned down, and don't play for long stretches I should be good for coop arma2.... just have to be careful about not overdoing it, I hope.

Had the day off so I decided to get the ball rolling with a very very simple and straight forward coop mission for ARMA2... Suggested players 6 -12... Click here to download Inglorious Bastages. The file is in .zip format with the usual game .pbo mission file inside. Unzip to your missions folder and enjoy. This little mission is dedicated to all members of Sparta..I hope you enjoy.

Sadly Ath, my JO days are done... I wish it was different. That game moves so fast I just cant keep up with what I am seeing and I'm pretty sure it contributed to the decline of my sight. In a world full of shooters I really suck at, JO was one I was pretty damned decent at... kind like you rule in GRAW..hahah I gave my JO discs to a neighbor and wished him well...

I built a Tactical map... it was totally basic, but just huge fun to make. Anyone who wants to try it could build a playable mission fairly easily. Give it a shot guys.... you might surprise yourself.
