stiff has released a Seize zones Kamenyy (Single Player) Mission on the BI Forums. ArmA2 patch Arma2 1.02 (build 58134) needed.
ABOUT THIS MISSION There is no scenario in this mission. It is a purpose though it enjoys the combat generated at random. Please know some principles to win.
TWO PRINCIPLES 1) If the number of construction of bunkers is little, the enemy's raid is also few. 2) The defense of the bunker where the construction position is far from the base is difficult.
About one -Please make the construction of the bunker a minimum if it is Low-end PC. -Please construct a lot of bunkers if you want the fierce battle. *If the number of constructed bunkers is little, the number of buildings that the enemy seizes is also little.
About two -The encounter with the enemy increases when the travel time to the bunker is long. -The probability that the bunker is seized by the enemy increases.
This is an alpha version. some functions do not work, but can play.
dracflamloc has released ArmALaunch a Mod launcher for Arma 1/2 on the BI Forums.
ArmALaunch is a program designed to allow for the easy launch of ArmA Combat Ops with various mods and command line options. It can save multiple 'favorites' of your mod configurations so you won't need tons of desktop icons all dedicated to ArmA. ... This has been confirmed compatible with ArmA 2
Edit 2 July 2009 :Also, I am announcing the release of 1.2, now with a command-line option 'quick' menu, and auto-exit after launch. In addition, Alex, I just figure I'll point out that armalaunch.exe takes less than 5Mb of RAM to run, thanks the absense of bitmap skins (which I never use in my programs). Enjoy all, link is updated on my homepage

The Invasion 1944 team sent us the following message:
Canukausiuka (our coder) has been working on adjustable sights for tanks. Because it takes a lot of time to set this up, the new sights may or may not be in the patch for ArmA1 (if not, it will certainly be in for ArmA2)
Canukausiuka:The video was taken at half of 1024x768, so its a bit blurry. I did hit the targets at 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, and 1.8km. Not sure about the 2km target... its just too far to see clear w/ the sights . I still have to add a sound for when you adjust the sights. It would need to be calibrated per-weapon, and the sights have to be carefully made and applied to the model to work quite right. But its a nice system to have, and a big advantage (well, yet another) for the Germans. American sights did not adjust in WWII. However, I plan to set them up in this system as well, because it allows me to be very precise with my sight dimensions (in mils).
Mecko informed us that addonmaker B@Co released several new impressive pictures of his work in progress Arado196 aircraft and the famous Bismarck. Addonmaker is also working on a release for ArmA 2.
callaway has released Operation Ebony Gryphon, a SP Air mission on the BI Forums.
OPERATION EBONY GRYPHON
Make no mistake, this is a critical mission. The allied advancement into the north of Chernarus has been close to halted by overwhelming enemy heavy armor. We can’t expose our ground troops and support to this threat any longer and we need to get them moving as soon as possible.
We need you to seek and destroy as much armor as possible before sunrise, when the allied assaults begin. Your success in this task may directly affect the outcome of tomorrow’s operation.
Focus on heavy armor and try to avoid or disable enemy anti-air units when necessary. Our intelligence units have marked possible Anti-Air positions; however, this is stale data.
You will be provided with fuel, refitting and repair services at the Allied airbase.

The highly-detailed action game ARMA 2 is now available worldwide via Steam.
ARMA II boasts the most realistic combat environment ever, modeling real world ballistics & round deflection, materials penetration, features a realtime day/night cycle and dynamic wind, weather and environmental effects. Play the campaign missions solo, in cooperative mode or join in massive multiplayer battles with up to 50 players.
Snake Man from PCM Tactical informed us that they have released their PMC ArmA 2 WRP Demo v1.1 for ArmA 2! An terrain addon wich you can use for making maps for ArmA 2. You can check the online manual here.
Its an WRP technology demo including 51km x 51km desert terrain with many ruined cities. This is not really a "real" terrain addon in the sense, but surely some people will find it useful. It comes with 4 missions which give you some quick fun.
v1.1 included extra terrain without any buildings, as some users have requested this for multiplayer "clan" use.
There is four simple missions included to show some of the terrain here, two of them are boring flights around the the place and other two uses 5km viewdistance with large amounts of troops under players command using High Command. These also aren't real missions, just some quick fun.
We have included extra terrain without any buildings where players can build their cities / bases / etc where ever they want to.
Please make no mistake, this is not "real" terrain as you know of them, this is tech demo of large terrains and cities, there is very little details or work put to it (PMC is developing a real final terrain based on this tech demo, but thats offtopic).
