ToH to use Java, Arma 3 to follow

17 Dec 2011 08:39 AM | cm. in Arma 3

A big announcment for all those SQF experts out there, Arma 3 will be supporting Java! Thanks to SnR for spotting it.

Initially it will be going into a patch for Take on Helicopters:

Quote

Hi fellow scripters,

Initially we had hoped to release the major upgrade to our scripting technology with Patch 1.03, but we were not able to get it fully implemented in time. Therefore we're pushing the ability to use Java to the next patch

Why is this awesome™?
  • Using a widespread, proven and robust language with loads of documentation and tutorials.
  • Using IDEs such as Neatbeans and Eclipse for development and debugging.
  • Using Object-Oriented programming architecture and design.
  • Using generally much higher performance script execution.
  • Using many standard Java libraries instead of reinventing the wheel.
Note: this will not replace SQF scripting, so the transition should be smooth.

You can check out the original thread on the BIS forums here.

Rememberance Day

10 Nov 2011 02:41 PM | Freeborne in General

Today might be the 11/11/11 but it is still Remeberance Day.

Please remember to take your 2 minutes of silence.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
