    Call me sceptical, but from what I can see 
    from the screens they've applied a few ReShade / SweetFX tweaks to the lighting & contrasts, make is nice & bright to look at it is the Mediterranean after all
     
    Pros
    turned down the view distance & added a haze at long range (should reduce the render process a bit) + for fps 
    Murrkied the waters (reduce the under water render & view distancea bit) + for fps 
     
    Cons
    Undo all the FPS +'s by adding a mirror render reflections to water surface -for fps (huge fps dump)
    to quote "Speaking of which, in terms of performance, the new lighting configuration itself should have have no impact; however, terrains with a lot of shoreline may be slightly impacted, due to the new approach to rendering water on the coast. Although we expect the new Screen Space Reflections tech will be more demanding"
     
    We'll see maybe good 
     
    top Sweet FX off (default graphics)
    bottom Sweet FX on
    now add in some haze and your golden

    Wow just wow, this topic got way off track, you should all take a second and sit back and have a rethink 
     
    Giddy came into TS the other day with a suggestion of having a smaller mod based server as a step between EU1 & EU3 that wasn't heavy on the mods, that might attract a few more into our "friendly" community, 
    some folks who may not like the "Structured Fun" that is EU3
    and some who are bored of EU1 & 2 and want a more lets let everyone have a bit of fun with all the "ye olde worlde" Arma mods and stuff that's available to spice up the mundane Altis / Stratis a bit.
     
    Giddy was asked to put up this post to get a community feel to see how much interest, he didn't want to but we forced him as a discussion between 12 people on TS wasn't going to go anywhere, so he put up this post and so far nothing constructive has come from it, and only a 2 sided "our server is better than your server" argument reared it's head
    there is no divide, we are one community, yes some play on one server over the other but it's AW that holds the lot together,
    he shouldn't be getting called out by the mobs with pitch forks to be burned as a heretic by the EU3 mob or the EU1/2 mob for that matter
     
    so if you could all pull your heads in and have a proper think as to what would make this, Great Idea by the way, of a semi mod server work or not work that would be a lot more welcome than a 2 sided heated debate 
     
    thanks

    Dingo got a reaction from Spearhead in EU 2 - Dedicated Admin?   
    As Chuck and the others said, Report, Report, Report we don't get enough report of incidents so it makes it hard to see where we are needed most
     
    there are many ways to Report - TTJPFFR for short (yeah that'll catch on)
     1. Typing admin in chat is the first most obvious way, if an admin is in game or watching RCon fro that server they'll get alerted
     2. Type an ! at the start in game chat report and it goes direct to TS and all admins on there get notified in a pop up TS Chat 
     3. Jump on TS
     4. Poke on TS 
     5. File a Forum Report it in the PalyerTools tab at the top of the site ^^ look see there it is
     
    and finally don't just say Admin TK'er on Eu(whatever) supply a name, it helps get them dealth with quicker. it may also scare them off in the mean time, but we have our ways of banning or temp banning for evasionary tictacs.
     
    EDIT:
    Oh yeah, meant to say
    re: the Admin and interest, that's great you guys are interested and it's noted,
    get more active on the forums, get known (for good stuff) in the community, you may one day get a tap on the virtual shoulder and be added to the FA posse (some already have been) and eventually hoiked up the ladder through the ranks to admin & beyond, 
     
    as for admins on the servers currently, you'd be surprised at how many there actually are in game on both servers, it may not seem like there is but someone's nearly always watching in one form or another ;D

    Dingo reacted to PERO in We Will Not MilSim.   
    As John McClane said, we are looking into it and discussing it with the whole staff personnel. Creating a ban appeal does not mean it will always be succesful, it's an option for a player to come clean amd share his story. Staff also has other things to do, some might be absent for a few days, hence us waiting for their replies.
    Saying you won't snitch people is childish IMO, especially you accusing us of hidding stuff from you. We never hide stuff and all decissions are documented.
    Staff will never go around and pester members to talk to them about issues. If you have something to say, come forward. Don't keep it back and then throw it forward in a topic like this.
    Rules are rules, you know them for a long time, yet you've gotten in trouble. EU3 is administrated far harsher than public servers due to people actually reading through rules and accepting them.
    To touch the original concern. MilSim communities are ones where you have to call people by RL names and ranks, asking permission to speak on TS, follow rank structure by the letter, always play ONE role(the one you certified through training).
    AW is and will not be a community like that. Having/making people following rules has nothing to do with being MilSim.
    You can't say we are enforcing rules harsher just to mess with players. Not following the rules is disturbing the gameplay and will be punished. Really simple.

    Dingo got a reaction from Cellhawk in ArmA III Custom Face - Punished "Venom" Snake/Big Boss/Solid Snake   
    Also if you've seen a person in game with a face you like you can goto
    C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Local\Arma 3\players
     
    in that folder will be a list of folders with the name of every player that has ever been in any servers with you,
    (wise to check this from time to time and clean it out cause it can get huge in mb overtime, especially if you server hop) 
     
    in each of the player name folders you'll find a sound folder and a face, if those players have custom sound file or a custom face
    you can then copy them out to your 
    C:\Users\*USERNAME*\Documents\ArmA 3 folder
     
    you can only have 1x custom face.jpg but if you name them face1.jpg face2.jpg etc... etc...
    you can have a collection and just rename them to face.jpg when you want to change out (requires game restart).

    Start with Flaming cliffs learn the basics in one of the 5 planes,they are all fairly similar and you can get up to combat effectiveness fairly quickly in them 
     
    then it's personal preference, the A-10C or MiG-21 are probably the most complete Study Sim modules with clickable pits and weapon deployment, but take a long time to learn and use them to full potential, 
     
    the trainers are cool too, good for practicing basic unguided A2G / Rocket & aerobatics
     
    The Helos are worth the time learning too they are fun to go tank hunting with once you're up to speed with all their systems
    The Ka-50 is pretty much the same level as the A-10C except you have a higher workload trying to keep one step ahead of the helo on it's mission of killing you at every opertunity
