    SOG Prairie Fire

    Those that have the marksman DLC have the option to use some scopes from that DLC if they are running as the designated marksman. If chemical weapons didn't cause catastrophic failures server-side then those with the contact DLC were given the option to use the CBRN gear from that DLC, however...

    A-10 Controls

    I didn't realize that you could pull the camera up with a different bind. Thank you

    A-10 Controls

    I'm having trouble understanding where to find certain keybinds. I'm trying to bind my 8-way hat to move the TGP, but I can't find where to bind that. I've tried all of the options under "view" but nothing allows me to manipulate the camera. Do I have to have the TGP selected as my weapon type...

    Keyboard Recommendations

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D3BDN60/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This is what I use. Brown switches are awesome, don't think I would ever go to a different switch type. Tactile without a loud click. Feels great for typing. I run aftermarket stealth keycaps with...

    Situation Update

    Have you used those speakers before? I used to own a redragon keyboard and loved it, and I've been looking for dedicated computer speakers that aren't crazy expensive for a while. How are they?

    mods downloading to Google drive

    Use the top right download button, that looks like an arrow pointing down into a bracket. Not the blue button that is center.

    Streaming Help

    A.) Recording you can go balls to the wall with resolution and bitrate. However, if you plan on streaming keep in mind that your viewer's internet have to be able to handle what you're outputing. I recommend 1080p60 @3k bitrate to keep your stream accessible. B.) Voice volume @100%, game @75%...

    Public Server Issue - Mods

    Enable the public mods, and disable the 506th mod itself. I had the same issue.

    New computer, how do you think it will run?

    I ran a very similar set up before upgrading to a 2070. I had a Ryzen 5 2600 @ 3.7 GHz with a 1660TI and 16 gigs. The base freq on your CPU is fairly low, so I don't know if it compares well to my CPU or not, but I could run my system at around 30FPS mins with view distance set to 4-5k on foot...

    1660 TI for Sale $200

    Upgrading to a 2070, just waiting for that to arrive in the mail. I have an ASUS 1660 TI. This card is part of the 20 generation, but does not have RayTracing so it didn't receive the 20-series branding. This card is great for 1080p gaming, only upgrading so I can go to ultrawide 1440p gaming...

    mod issues

    In the 506th folder (if not, check the other mods for it) there is a file called Userconfig. Take the file out from there and move it into the Arma 3 folder in your steam directory.

    CBA Weapons Binds

    Isn't there an RHS option for that? In the ESC menu, above the stock Arma menu there is the RHS options there. I think there is a binding there.

    Tips for recording? *coughSFC Heckmancough*

    Be prepared to fill that 500 gig harddrive quickly if you increase the quality. You won't be able to be like me and record things for the purpose of uploading but waiting 6 months between uploads because degenerate lazy piece of shit.

    Tips for recording? *coughSFC Heckmancough*

    Yes, that is a bitrate issue. The BEST thing you can do is turn off grass in game, since that amount of detail causes the horrible compression. 4500 should produce decent quality, I think 6k is the sweet spot for streaming quality. If you are only recording, you can really crank out that bitrate...

    2K Resolution Settings?

    12K render distance is what I found to be all I needed as an RTO viewing the battlefield from a UAV. That includes scouring the entire map for mortar pits. On the ground I have my distance set to 5k and have never had a problem with that. I have the shadow slider dropped all the way down, gives...

    Laptop Recommendations

    I've heard good things about that lineup of laptops. For the money you could always get beefier specs I believe, but if portability is major then I think that is a good one to go with.
