BCA Cat Toaster has released a [aas50S] Battle for Krasnostav 1.5 MP mission on the BI Forums. This Advance and Secure MP mission is a part of the large and excellent AAS Mission Pack base on CoolBox work.
This was my first attempt making an AAS-Mission ever based on the AAS-Templates and -Scripts made by CoolBox-SBS-. It´s a small and Infantry-Based scenario in an urban environment. This mission is part of the official AAS-Mission-Pack by CoolBox-SBS featuring always all the latest improvements and Bugfixes in AAS-Game-Mode itself. The current Map-Pack features version 1.5 of this mission, 1.6 will be part of the next Mission-Pack-Release and is currently only available for testing and preview on our server. I slightly relocated the objectives B and E for more cover.
If you´re interested in Hosting this and many other maps, Modding or just Designing own AAS-Missions based on some great Templates, make sure to get the latest AAS-Mission-Pack here. Using the provided Templates makes it possible to design your own AAS-Mission without any Scripting-Knowledge! Just focus on relocating objectives, gameplay and adding additional stuff via the Editor.
Hmm?? What´s this AAS-Stuff all about?
AAS is a Team vs Team Multiplayer-Mode. In case you´re new to AAS here´s an overview with additional links how it works, explaining the HUD, general Tactics and specific key-controls.

zGuba has released an updated version of his zGuba's Gameplay Modifications for ARMA2 on the BI Forums.
The pack contains addons changing gameplay logics or adding special effects. Does no harm to remote machines, so don't worry about using it on servers. Addons are signed, public key stored in the package. Contents of the pack :
- zgb_choppers (Triggerhappy Choppers) Moves control over FFARs directly to gunship pilots. Use manual control to use gunner's weapons.
- zgb_disposal (Disposable Launchers) Makes using of disposable launchers closer to reality. Player and AI don't have to care about "magazines" anymore. Additionally changes vehicle/crate cargo so magazines got replaced with weapons. After firing launcher, switch the weapon when desired to see the tube getting thrown on the ground. Known issue #1: empty tubes tend to fly high in the sky when pushed by splash damage. See video by Cole showing the issue - awaiting BI Sample Models release in order to fix this and improve visual side of the addon. Known issue #2: player cannot test disposable launcher in the Armory because of lack of handling type 0 magazines. Created in cooperation with Inkompetent. Using tube clearance script by Rocko. Thank You guys! Requires CBA. - zgb_disposal_en (Disposable Launchers in English) Optional addon changing display names of used tubes to English. Requires zgb_disposal.
- zgb_disposal_ru (Disposable Launchers in Native Language) Optional addon changing display names of RPG-18s to Russian with localized comments. Requires zgb_disposal.
- zgb_gunners (Triggerhappy Gunners) Makes AI gunners under player's command actually shoot at something without asking them for. Additionally makes it possible to reload ammo belt manually in mounted weapons like M2 and Mk 19.
- zgb_stick2gether (Stick 2gether) Makes AI stay in formations when overwhelmed. Based on Mr Centipede's addon. Thank You! Requires CBA.
- zgb_silviefix (Silvie Fix) Makes cars spawned by SILVIE module randomly fueled and damaged.
- zgb_stabilization (Anti-Breakdance Vaccine) Limits or disables stabilization on main turrets of certain vehicles to prevent "tank breakdance". Additionally tweaks rotation speed values for T-72 and T-90 to meet their real possibilities. Limited stabilization (vertical only): T-72, T-90 Disabled stabilization: BMP-2, BMP-3, BTR-90
- zgb_vapourtrails (Vapour Trails) Adds vapour trails to aircrafts, just like Cole's addon. Thanks to Cole for finding the script in game's files out! Requires CBA.
Solus has released a "Ragdoll" effect for killed units falling from buildings on the BI Forums.
Here's an addon I was working on: It make bodies attach to a physics object and fall down if they are above the ground, and then removes the object when they come to a stop. This is to reduce situations where people are sticking out over the sides of ledges. There didn't seem to be any serious bugs when testing it, and it should work independently of other SLX addons. It may need an update for MP which will come soon after someone can test it out in MP.
The SLA are back! And they're invading Chernarus! Oh noes!
Features: -1 new faction -25+ New infantry units (including basic infantry, special forces and vehicle crews) -20+ vehicles (currently only reskinned ArmA2 vehicles, new ones will be added in later versions) -Uniform randomization feature for special forces -Fully compatible with the mission generator
arremba_san_zorzo from the Pedagne Mod has informed us about their WIP and send us new in-game screenshots featuring wheeled armored vehicles. Hi, after a run started two years ago, today i'm proud to display first images in-game of two of numerous models of "WHEELED" section of PedagneMOD. I'm speaking about blindo Puma, blindo 6614, truck ACTL (thanks to Lobo of FFAA), truck ACM90, 4x4 car VM90, Land Rover, blindo car Lince (another thanks to Lobo), Hilux 5 seats.......all in various versions. Models have been created for both Arma and Arma2 with one file 3d. Only some little adjustments on proxy and config, needed to differentiate the game. There are still many bugs to fix and many vehicles to adjust, but now you can see only screenshot in-game. Stop with screenshoot by buldozer.....My models go out from the drawer. Weekly i will inform you about the work in progress in different models. This is the first result of new collaborations of Nembo and Dedalo. Thanks to them, never forget all old collaborations of the PedagneMOD... Bie Arremba

I44_John from Invasion 1944 Mod has informed us about their projected "Wacht am Rhein" campaign for ArmA2 on our Forums.
We decided about a year ago that we wanted to go back to the Wacht am Rhein project once we were finished with the Normandy project for ArmA1. The Normandy project will be ported to ArmA2, which is our first priority, but once this is completed, little if any expanding of the project is expected. The Ardennes offensive will take priority after that.
Traditionally, we have always focused on singleplayer (SP), with the hope that the mod would be as usable as possible in multiplayer (MP). However, due to improvements in internet connection speeds and changes in the gaming industry over the years, multiplayer gaming has now become our main focus. We will also make it possible for the campaign to be played in SP, but it will be orientated primarily towards MP.
We aim to create a character driven storyline somewhat similar to that of BIS' "Razor" campaign (as far as time and technology permits anyway). The campaign is projected to consist of 4-7 Co-op missions, in which the player will be the tank commander of a Waffen SS tank crew in the Kampfgruppe Peiper of the 1.SS "Leibstandarte" division (that's right, you'll be playing as a German). We realize that this is a unit with a somewhat tainted reputation because of the actions of some of it's members during the battle of the Bulge. We will however continue to stand by our decision to include any symbols that were used (mostly the swastika and runes) to not detract from the realism. The missions will be small to medium-sized, really large tank/combined arms battles are reserved for separate missions (SP and MP).
sander has released a RCIR MinimiPara addon v 1.00 on the BI Forums.
As the BLUFOR lacked a machinegun with magnifying optics to match the Pecheneg, I converted the Armed Assault BIS sample model into a Minimi Para with ACOG scope. It is a simple conversion, so it does not have the fancy reload animation of the Arma II M249.
