Archangel got a reaction from thetryder in Flight Test
Howdy, Y'all!
As some of you may know, we here at Ahoy have been efforting putting together a Flight test that'll give you guys a chance to earn those wings and the status of accredited Pilot.
What is the significance of the ACCREDITED PILOT stamp you'll earn? Well, at the moment, nothing more than bragging rights, as well as a nifty little pin in the TS channels you'll get, that hopefully will fill future passengers of yours with the utmost of confidence that you'll deliver them safely, and in one piece, to their deadly, deadly LZ's.
In the future, however, we may consider this test as part of the admission process to Ahoy's Flight Club.*
So, this is the place to sign up for testing, as well as discussing any questions or comments you might have about the flight test, and putting forward any ideas you might have for an eventual flight club.
Lastly, I want to make sure everyone understands that this is not meant to lead to any exclusionary or unfair practices. Accredited Pilots will not by default have any special rights or privileges in our public servers. I think everyone can agree that one of the hallmarks of our community is the presence of an equal playing field, and we do not aim to disturb that.
*not yet a "thing", but it's on our radar

Archangel reacted to anzu in Ahoy World Racing Series Invitational
It was our pleasure as well, we had a really great time! Wow that's really nice of you guys to forfeit those prizes! We definitely appreciate the good sportsmanship and mutual respect. We look forward to the next event Ahoy World hosts, and also playing some good games of I&A with you folks sometime! Thanks again for inviting us and great job on a well organized race!

Archangel reacted to Danny_S in Ban Appeal - Alek [CLOSED]
If this ban is lifted I will tell you what I (and every other experienced ARMA player) say when a new person comes onto the server. If you are new to the game and not familiar with the controls of the helicopters, then please use the editor for practising. A public server with 44 other people is not the place to be learning to fly.
We don't try to be unfair and discourage people from flying on our servers, but then we also don't want 44 other players getting annoyed because they never reach an AO alive. I'm sure you can understand the reason for why people might get annoyed.
If you want to practise picking up and dropping off soldiers there are some great training missions on the Steam Workshop!

Archangel got a reaction from Wraith420 in Ahoy World Racing Series Invitational
Ahoy World is proud to announce we will be hosting a large-scale, multi-group oriented race across Altis! Those willing to participate will be asked to form 3-man teams consisting of a Driver, Medic/navigator, and Mechanic. Ahoy it's self will have a few cars reserved for our members to fill out, however, one of the most exciting parts of this race is that we will be inviting other groups from around the Arma-sphere to form their own team and join us!
The race course will cover almost everything Scenic Altis has to offer, from Pavement to saltflat, Mountain climbs to ocean views, all from the comfort of your Hatchback Sport. Race teams will be encouraged to create their own custom Texture for their cars livery. There is NO entry fee, however, we ask you consider making a contribution to the winners pot, such as a Steam game, or iTunes or the like, however big or small, so that the we have something to give the winning team. Further, we ask that you take this race seriously, as you are representing your group, and take note that any mucking about will be dealt with not just in-game, but potentially out of game as well (at least for Ahoy members).
Tentatively, we are looking at March 15th, at 16:00 G.M.T. for race day. The course and certain specifics about race formats are still being decided, but feel free to ask if you have any questions. So, if your ready, get set, and make your race teams.

Archangel got a reaction from razgriz33 in late night gaming idea
If you make it "late night" enough you'll get a small boost in U.S. attendance. Shoot for 22 or even zero dark thirty, g.m.t., buddy. Go for the gold!

Archangel reacted to Bruce in Public Meeting 1500UTC 02/02/14 (Sunday)
Not going to make it either,
so I'd like to add my two cents here as well
1) Bring revive back ! the current mode would be fine in a perfect world but it doesn't play well on a public server.
due to the following actions :
a) asshats that can't fly
griefers that range around the AO in a Kuma TKing
c) action menu that glitches out and drops explosives next to helos
d) Medics that have ZERO clue how to do their job
e) Players that don't stand still long enough to be medicced
f) any other factors that cause mass death
when it's not down to your own action means you repsawn ? that's just a waste of anyones time,
on a dedicated and controlled server .. fine, perfect even, love it .. on a public server where Core staff and admins are getting fewer and farther between visits.
it's a time sink that is NOT FUN !
2) Can we have ONE stable server ... that has the best known build consistantly
and take any test revisions to another server
Cheers for listening ..
peace out
Bruce

Archangel reacted to kamaradski in AW Mod repository
Hi All,
We are currently testing a official AhoyWorld shared-drive that will always contain the latest mods that are allowed on our server.
How does this work ?
- This is a shared-drive that will synchronize among all users that are connected to it
- As it is works without central server, please keep the tool running on your computer, even after you downloaded all mods
- The files will then synchronize to a folder on you computer, and you can copy them from there to your arma directory
- Remember the more users we have the quicker you will be able to sync your files and any updates.
Getting started:
1 - Install btsync from here: http://www.bittorrent.com/sync/downloads
2 - During the install it will ask if you have a secret, use this code: BJAVS2VSH4J5KAYLPGDVP67P3NNFMWIPT
3 - Make sure you point the program to a new empty folder that is easy for you to remember
4 - Wait till it is fully synchronized
How to easily start the mods ?
You can use a little tool called Arma3sync, it will automatically find the mods you have copied into your Arma-folder, so you dont have to install them, not even have to add them to you arma-startup. This little tool manages it all for you:
download: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=22199
Manual\WIKI: http://www.sonsofexiled.fr/wiki/index.php/ArmA3Sync_Wiki_English
Now this is a trial, so if we manage to get enough users for this, we will probably keep this running and up to date. If it works properly we will add another repository for game-night specific mods.
Feel free to use this thread to ask any questions you might have about btsync and\or arma3sync, also if you notice an updated version of any of the mods, please report it here, so the staff can update the syncdrive and distribute the latest version to everyone.
Current content:
- BlastCore - Special effects on explosions, smoke, lights, fire
- CBA_A3 - Coremod instructions
- JSRS2.0 - Soundmod
- sthud - Shactac hud
- tao_foldmap - folding map
- VTS_weaponresting - rest you weapon on a wall or ground, and shoot more straight

Archangel reacted to Sanguine in Gamenight 25th Debrief.
Josh / Cain, as someone who has created and hosted pen and paper campaigns for many years I feel you. Both creating those missions and executing them is hard work, and even careful planning doesn't always pay off.
However, since this mission seems to have been a relative failure I'm not too annoyed at missing out on it.
-
Archangel reacted to Sanguine in seriously?
May not be my place to talk but can you at least try to sort out the differences? What's the point of coming back to playing when people are still hostile to each other; nothing will be learned, just behaviour adjusted. For some that might seem good enough but if you're genuinely trying to further the community you will want to try promote understanding.

Archangel reacted to Samson in ArmA 3 Screenies & Videos Thread
Nice one Danny! Does it have any aftermath effects ? airborne particles, fallout, dust etc ? Oh and shockwaves ?
I tried out one nuke that came with the B2 Bomber LoCW pack, It lookes a bit different from yours, not that nice fireball.. But it has some pretty cool devastating effects from shockwaves and dust blocking the sunlight.
(Long post warning )

Yep, if you see this silhouette in the sky and you are on the wrong team, you are pretty much basically f%cked.
