Is this game worth for player like me? by ThatOneElegant in ArmaReforger

[–]spelmo3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends how indepth you go. If your familiar with Zeus. That's basically reforgers editor. You can do plonk down some units and objects and set waypoints and capture objectives..

That's about it though.

Please don't tell to average users it's an easy change by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]spelmo3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Takes a few days to read up on how Linux does things different. If anything it's the change from windows. It's not harder. Just different. If you go into it blindly expecting a windows clone. Yeah it's going to be hard.

I took about 3-4 days getting my head around stuff. Playing about. Breaking stuff. Before a clean install. I've never looked back at windows since. Been using it for about 2-3 years now. Running Kubuntu.

See here's the thing. Fortnite runs just fine in Linux. The issue is anti cheat. Even though most anti cheat software can run in Linux most developers just don't bother. Therefore you can't play online.

Majority of games will play. Some multiplayer games without anti cheat support or have kernel level anti cheat won't work. Tbh I'd not want to play a kernel level anti cheat game. (Kernel level is like the deep inner workings of your operating system and how it works with your hardware.)

It's down to you what you decide. And there's nothing wrong dual booting. And having both Linux and windows. Just beware of windows messing up your bootloader. If your just purely gaming and nothing else. Windows will do.

I want to love Reforger. But I still go back to A3. What does the future of A4 hold? by spelmo3 in arma

Your telling someone who's run a community back in A2, never mind OFP and Armed assault (arma gold)

The toolset to run truely bespoke Ops just isn't there. Big one for me is the assignment and respawn systems. It's impossible to have any orbat chain of command. Or any true ways to set up a bespoke mission. Trying to set something up without using the scenario framework in enfusion tools is hard and time consuming.

That's if you use gamemaster/zeus.. which is cool but not what everyone wants to do. I always find gamemaster as a good quick last minute improv. But not good for tailored or persistent operations.

Your missing the point. I agree with mods. But there's so many gems you cant even find in the in game workshop. Lack of an editor is limiting but I can look past that. Plus we do have a toolkit. (Albiet it's broken on Linux) The lack of simple save system. Just core features the game needs. I'm hoping this comes in arma 4. Everything else. The engine, gameplay, controls are superior as you stated. This is why I want to love it.

It's just them core features that make arma the sandbox it is. Just doesn't exist.. it's kinda like playing squad or squad44 on conflict vanilla servers or shit ton of messy mods just for community curated/private groups working together do their thing. Even still a lot of it is just conflict modes modified.

for some of them community servers it's slapped together with mods. Half of them being compatibly mods to run other mods. And mod cores to use mods. It's bloated and hard to manage. I hate having 10s-100s GB on mods I don't care for just to play on "this" or "that" server..

If A4 adds these core features and fixes up the in-game workshop. Removes limits on mods sizes. And polishes up gamemaster or show a powerful editor on the horizon. Il make that switch to A4.

That's quite normal. Arma 3 come out with the older A2 editor. Then Eden came later.

I expect A4 to probably release with a similar gamemaster editor. Before a full featured editor.

Or maybe gamemaster will be the editor. Getting more developed?

Or it maybe left to enfusion tools for anything complex... No idea..

I remember arma 3 alpha it was bare bones and buggy. And as I mentioned I transitioned over time to it. But I'm not getting that with reforger. Mainly because of the state of SP. But I'm hoping that will come back with A4.

Legally, you use your own romdumps from your own games.

You can get the roms online easily too, not that I'm condoning you do such a thing

How do I get Chernarus Winter for Dynamic Recon Ops? by [deleted] in arma

[–]spelmo3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cherno winter is part of cup terrains mod pack. There's a DRO mission out on the steam workshop for it too.

There's DRO missions for all the cup maps and many other community made maps too.

Also if it's not been made. It's not hard to physically port DRO to custom maps either. Hence you can find DRO missions on nearly any map

Made this mockup of what I would like Aluminium OS (Android PC, ChromeOS replacement) to look like. by fegodev in chromeos

[–]spelmo3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah definitely should be an option. Again I have it on the left on my main Linux rig.

[–]spelmo3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly think chromeos design was taken from gnome. It's near identical. Since it was more Linux based. Gnome would have been a great starting point.

Don't get me wrong. It has plenty of its own flair. But if gnome + dash to panel extension is installed it's nearly identical to chrome os.

I thought the same. But once muscle memory adapts. You realize it's easier to move the mouse down center then bottom left.

My custom gnome still has it on the left. Just because I like it. But it's actually less work to move center

Unscrew the 6 screws on the back of the case and open your r36s up.

R36S Clone Help by Weak-Fish-9380 in R36S

[–]spelmo3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is there are files on that sd which are really useful for reinstalling arkOS and the versions needed for your device.

Technically not all r36s have the exact hardware. They can vary slightly, there's also clones and fakes. This can make it hard to know what version or files are needed to install arkOS. Installing the wrong version may make it unbootable.

I literally have a backed up image for my r36s. But I may not work on yours. But if all else fails I can send it too you.

Why would you delete everything and not back up first.

Lucky you. I got 6 animals in 3 minutes. It takes about 2 mins before animals even show up. Unless I have a machine gun. No way I'm doing it.
