First of all thanks and on the subject of that fine dark skinned gentleman in a dark blue shirt (i hope we are thinking on the same man) he is in fact in many of my mission. Not all but many 2035 missions have him hidden somewhere so you may see him few more times in the future. :>

heyo.

I have only recently started playing around with scenarios on arma. Up until now it was a game i'd jump in with friends, and it peaked my interest on jets among other stuff.

Your scenarios are genuinely fantastic! Played a few of them, and they have a fantastic style. Despite not expecting humor, the memes are great too.

The only reason I'm commenting on this mission specifically is because I've seen the man. I found him.

That's what made me comment, the attention to detail is great. I thought it was just a funny but I was in awe when I saw he was real.

so many words to say; great mission(s).

AlphaRoughneck I will put it that way. :D
This mission was released on workshop almost 1 year ago and you are first person ever to mention anything even remotely resembling your problems and did run it with mods.

Because of that I can with some level of certainty tell you that it's most probable that it's something on your side.

I can't use the AMRAAMs without the missile hitting my plane and knocking me out, idk why they're doing that unless it has to do with a mod i have

gregjlanders , I'm more than happy to hear that. :>
gregjlanders 14 Mar, 2023 @ 6:04pm 
More than enjoying it, this is one of my absolute favourite missions, great opportunity to try out custom layouts with AA missiles!!!
fanin 11 Mar, 2023 @ 12:11pm 
I've got 24 kills, so it def is 24 or more, possibly 24 as each wave has 4 groups of 3 drones so yeah, 24 total, still, fun ^^
BlackFox  [author] 8 Mar, 2023 @ 9:15pm 
gregjlanders I'm glad to hear that. :>
gregjlanders 8 Mar, 2023 @ 8:09pm 
Really enjoyed this!
fanin 20 Feb, 2023 @ 10:20am 
max would be eighter 24 or more enemies as I've got 22 multiple times but the AI decided to become grass-fed
BlackFox  [author] 19 Feb, 2023 @ 3:08am 
As I understand it it has a option to switch on Zeus interface. So in that case it definitely can spawn vehicles. If you are not familiar with the Zeus there is a showcase in base Arma for that. :>
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 19 Feb, 2023 @ 3:03am 
Oh wow this is the mod I've seen yesterday didn't see the vehicle spawn menu option there thanks again have a great time. :steamthumbsup:
BlackFox  [author] 19 Feb, 2023 @ 2:53am 
🅻🅴🅾 Thanks for kind words. :>

this is the mod I was thinking about:
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=410206202
I've never used it personally but from what I understand it is what You are looking for.
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 19 Feb, 2023 @ 2:41am 
I was not asking you to do anything you probably misunderstood. I managed to place custom planes in editor works like a charm but it takes a lot of time.You said "mods that allow you spawn things during missions" I tried to find it in workshop and google it but no result can you drop a name or link to that mod when you have free time? Will be grateful also thanks for quick responses good scenario maker and also helpful person. Keep it up can't wait for new scenarios!
BlackFox  [author] 19 Feb, 2023 @ 1:24am 
🅻🅴🅾 with all due respect but I have no interest nor free time to adapt my missions to the requests of everyone on the Internet. :c

You could propably put that mission in to your profile by moving some files and then in editor add to it whatever you want. You would then have to also add any new jet to my respawn system to have it respawn and etc.
Please if you want to do that quick google search should do the trick. I think there are also mods that allow you spawn things during missions so maybe that can help you. Again, Google is your best friend in that case. :>
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 18 Feb, 2023 @ 11:48pm 
Is it possible to spawn workshop F-22 in this mission. Cause I hate vanilla planes xD. Have you ever tried something similar?
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 18 Feb, 2023 @ 11:55am 
wow didn't see it. Thx keep up these good content. And hope to see modded coop scenarios where we can use real life factions and vehicles instead of this ugly vanilla world.
BlackFox  [author] 18 Feb, 2023 @ 11:42am 
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂
is that helpful?
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Mission_Parameters
You can see there on the screenshots where to find those in lobby.
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 18 Feb, 2023 @ 11:29am 
Yeah unfortunately I couldn't find parameter
BlackFox  [author] 18 Feb, 2023 @ 11:17am 
Well yes but you make it harder on yourselves since they will have time to bunch up. Instead of few at a time You will have all at once marauding over Altis.
If You want to reduce their numbers please look into mission parametrs in the lobby you can then adjust how many swarms there will be for how long they spawn and how many of them are in a single swarm. :>
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 18 Feb, 2023 @ 11:11am 
So if we wait for 10 min and kill 21 of them we win?
BlackFox  [author] 18 Feb, 2023 @ 11:03am 
It's 100% possible to finish. after period of those 10 minutes they stop spawning. It can be adjusted in the mission parametrs Then You just take shoot what is left in the skies and land. :>

It takes two tickets as it should (1 for your death one for destruction of the aircraft). You can turn that off in mission parametrs before start so that only player's death draws tickets. :>

As I said earlier that is because you can eject from the aircraft and return to base via support. That way only the jet is lost. :>
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 18 Feb, 2023 @ 10:54am 
So it's impossible to finish this mission? We killed 21 in total with friend. Btw when die it takes 2 points from 10 spawn points is that normal?
BlackFox  [author] 18 Feb, 2023 @ 10:30am 
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂how many of them are there? I don't remember, but they spawn continuously for the first 10 minutes (or so again I don't remember) in SP so... a lot. .

I hope You know you can in fact jump from your plane when You get in to sticky situation and them return to base via support and get a new jet.
꧁꧂🅻🅴🅾꧁꧂ 18 Feb, 2023 @ 10:07am 
too hard in one run I could kill max 6 planes how many are there?
fanin 1 Jan, 2023 @ 8:41am 
highest I could get - 14.7k in 11:07 , very good to play in free time to keep tactics and boldness sharp and smart
fanin 28 Dec, 2022 @ 4:54am 
13.3k in 13:44, quite good highscore
fanin 18 Dec, 2022 @ 3:04am 
very fun, ++rep
BlackFox  [author] 1 Dec, 2022 @ 12:27am 
Petrus Aurelius thanks. :>

As a fun fact:
Those UCAVs are actually not even using their full potential. xD
Even when You select Gryphon as your jet they still have artificially limited speed a bit.
Petrus Aurelius 30 Nov, 2022 @ 7:38pm 
Another great one from you. I enjoyed how this mission highlights how terrifying the stealth drones are to fight against. In Arma 3 (and IRL) NATO has some wild air power and the Arma community is used to using that air power for CAS, not going against its teeth. Really unique mission.
BlackFox  [author] 14 Nov, 2022 @ 7:02pm 
Galm very sorry to hear.
I just replayed it my self to check and completed the mission with no issues. I'm not saying they don't exist but it doesn't occur to me and it is generally related to memory allocation witch isn't something I can really influes.
Best I can suggests is to try steam's file veryfication.
Sorry. :<

Your mission causes STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATIONS in both modded and unmodded singleplayer

I will not confirm nor deny any Ace Combat or Project Wingman influence on my missions. xD
lazerktulu 8 Nov, 2022 @ 6:45am 
Ace Combat in Arma?:steamhappy:
BlackFox  [author] 30 Oct, 2022 @ 12:04pm 
Thank You Variable for commenting and playing.
I was a bit afraid that the difficulty might be too great so it's good to see someone liked it. :>
Variable 30 Oct, 2022 @ 11:41am 
That was fun! Challenging and entertaining. Thank you.
