kju has informed us about DisabledFriendlyFire Server Side addon release on the BI Forums. CBA needed.
Description
Disables any form of friendly fire. No damage is applied to friendly units or vehicles.
The main intention is to provide server admins a tool to avoid FF abuse or to make the game more accessible to beginners (accidental friendly fire due to friend-foe recognition problems when learning the game).
Server side addon. Can be used in SP too.
However should NOT be mixed (server + client use)! And do NOT run as client in MP.
Warning: DM still works with human players. However not with AI!
This release is, like the v0.7.3 release, intended for users of all three variations of ArmA 2.
Key Changes - IMPROVED: More robust Key handlers - FIXED: PostInit not initializing on Clients if Player was no Man-based unit. - FIXED: PFH broken after Teamswitching - FIXED: Initialization issues causing e.g takeMagazine actions not working properly - CHANGED: PerFrameHandler Monitor now uses Trigger, improved fallback on pause and on dedicated servers. - ADDED: CBA_fnc_addLocalEventHandler and CBA_fnc_whereLocalEvent - ADDED: CBA_fnc_publicVariable and CBA_fnc_setVarNet: Only broadcasts if value has changed - ADDED: CBA_fnc_modelHeadDir: Get the direction of any unit's head - Several function and documentation fixes and macro improvements - Internal fixes and improvements
Full documentation is available at DevHeaven. Issue Changelog is available at DevHeaven
Note
This version is equal to the version released with ACE 1.11 Stable (CBA was wrongly tagged 0.7.5 instead of 0.7.6),in addition this release contains official CBA_0-7-6 bikey and bisigns.

You are the unit19 and You will have to patrol Zargadab and carry out the orders of the Police station. Objectives will be shown on the map by a yellow symbol.

IceBreakr has released a Pilot's Secret, TvT mission for Isla Duala, up to 26 players (13 vs 11+2) on the BI Forums. Description: Isla Hazena. Afrenian chopper went down far behind enemy lines. Pilot has a knowledge, a secret, that could hurt Afrenian defenses in case of his capture. Both sides dispatch teams in order to get to the pilot first. Pilot must not die or both sides fail.
EAST | MOLATIAN HUNTING PARTY Molatian hunting party needs to capture pilot alive and force him to enter the Prison bunker where interrogations take place. After 5-12minutes inside the secret is told and Molatians win. Leader can then decide to: a) execute pilot b) prolong the mission by leaving pilot to rot in prison or hide him somewhere c) call opposition leader and organize the transfer across the Hazena bridge (pilot needs to walk across the bridge)
WEST | AFRENIAN RESCUE PARTY Afrenian rescue team needs to scramble and reach Hazena, locate burning wreck and search for a pilot. When he is secured, they need to get him back across the border (by vehicle or air). In case rescue party fails the pilot can steal a car and try to make it for the border by himself... but Molatians will be on his tail.
INDEPENDENT SIDE (PILOT & HIS PASSENGER) Pilot's priority is to survive, to see his wife and three kids again. If he comes in contact with Molatians, its best for him to surrender and hope to let him free soon (convince interrogator at the prison in 5-12 min. time). Sometimes he can have a companion in order to slow down the Molatians or lead them away from the pilot. But this passenger is expendable for both sides. If he dies he can try to assist again from the Rescue HQ (spawn).
Old Bear from the Clan ADO has released his Brik 2 v0.3 beta terrain on the Clan ADO site.
Brik2 is a map based upon the Brikby training grounds in Danemark.
This map of a 5km x 5km area features the training CQB village and a small part of the vehicles training grounds in the South. The map is based upon GoogleEarth pics as well as pictures send by a Danish correspondent ... many thanks to DeadEcho Team.
Of course, this Brik is NOT Brikby ! What I miss the most are the pretty, pinky, bricky houses they seem to like the most in this far away wet country. I have use the vanilla Bohemian stern and more or less dilapidated buildings, all of them enter-able of course !
Brik2 is a new totally rebuild version based on real terrain data, thanks to Akio. The terrain features broken grounds "for the sake of replayability", less hills and more bumps. The clutters amount and size has been also limited in order to help playability.
