Either way I'll have to download steam right?

[knotty plinth]

Yes

[prime beacon]

Alright thanks. Here goes

[royal vigil]

Its the best drm out there

Its the best because nothing comes close to its monopoly or its size

[vale valley]

remember there is nothing to see in #end_of_life_arma so move along and don't mob ! 😁

[royal vigil]

That exists?

[slender pebble]

#newMOTTOofThisDiscord

this applies to 90% of the channels

[royal vigil]

I thought the Ip rights violation was the weridest channel of them all

[slender pebble]

no

it's actually the one that makes most sense

that way dwarden doesn't have to be spammed with PMs

[royal vigil]

Meh, then theres #headless_client

[slender pebble]

which is yes, totally useless since it could be merged with #arma3_scripting or #server_admins

[fallen tulip]

#arma_tactics anyone?

[royal vigil]

Makes it sound like everyone is sick of this guys shit and him not using his head so they made a channel just for them

Arma tactics?

[fallen tulip]

It's on steam

Look it up

[royal vigil]

There should be like a sticky

That it isnt an arma 3 thing

Its a game

There probably is

[fallen tulip]

It's still arma

[royal vigil]

Yeah but like a sister game

[thin sable]

read the channel description there

[royal vigil]

Like argo right?

[thin sable]

also its under Other games

[royal vigil]

Meh, I mean if your being literal

Arma tactics could just you be drawing on the map

[fallen tulip]

"like argo right?" Did you care to actually look?

[royal vigil]

I peeked for 5 sec

I saw your comment about this being an actual OTHER game

[slender pebble]

like a mostly negative game on steam*

[royal vigil]

Then I came back here

[slender pebble]

apparently it's terrible

like, really bad

[fallen tulip]

Are you talking about argo Altanthe?

[slender pebble]

tactics

[fallen tulip]

Ah, yes, it could have been F2P

[royal vigil]

Is it like the valve situation where some games are just forgotten and never updated like TF2 and a game like DOTA gets all the love? (in this case arma gets all the love)

Is bohemia on that level?

That arma 3 is just its favourite current child

[slender pebble]

dude

TF2 is how many years old?

[fallen tulip]

Rel in 2011

[slender pebble]

it's 10 years old, last update was october 21 2017

[stable charm]

hello guys i bought this game about a year ago and it's been sitting in my library untouched because i didn't know how to play it will somebody please teach me

[fallen tulip]

@stable charm First of all, don't double post as you can see that is against the rules #rules . secondly, #looking_for_unit is where you post to join up with others

[stable charm]

oh sorry

but one thing

after i join up what happens

[pale patio]

The Bootcamp and 'VR' training course will teach you the basics of the game, controls etc, best for anyone new to the game to start with those

[drifting shell]

what was the Breaking Point extension or mod or whatever, anyone have a link?

[torn hinge]

anyone know the difference between the cluster bombs?

AFAIK just payload and laser lock?

[tired hornet]

what is this discord anyway

[fallen tulip]

@tired hornet Are you lost? This is the arma 3 discord

[knotty plinth]

:waitwhat:

[knotty plinth]

this discord

[prime beacon]

So if I undertand correctly ACE3 is an installation module for enhanced realism, ballistics being one of them?

Can you still play multiplayer with the module installed?

[thin sable]

if the server uses it

I believe

[prime beacon]

Meaning every player on that server has to have ACE3 installed right? Otherwise it wouldn't be a level playing field if some players were slinging leads downrange with lesser environmental factors compared to those using ACE3?

[thin sable]

yes usually servers check that players are using the same mods the server is running

[prime beacon]

Alright thanks

[slender pebble]

tfw you're doing ace arsenal stats and start wondering about your sanity because weapons are somehow heavier than indicated....

and then you facepalm because you forgot about the goddamn mag loaded in it....

[fallen tulip]

@slender pebble hears the sound of your brain dying

[slender pebble]

I swear, converting mass to kg is... iffy, it shouldn't be done but meh

2kg 30 rounds 6.5 mags 😄

[cinder reef]

cause mass is a weird mashup of both size and weight (yeah, try and figure that one out)

[meager tundra]

IIRC didn't RHS post a formula that could be used?

[cinder reef]

yes (http://www.rhsmods.org/b/8)

[meager tundra]

@alpine robin Is the formula still being used?

[alpine robin]

What?

[pale patio]

the 'new' weight/volume = mass calculation for RHS

how consistent is that formula with whatever BI are using for vanilla items?

[slender pebble]

weight doesn't exist

we have a combined value for mass and weight meaning some items are gonna weight a shitload because they need to take more space

[quartz magnet]

^^gravity is a lie!

[alpine robin]

Items have no weight or volume in Arma 3. There is a config entry called mass, but that is just a generic "how much space does this item take away", that is also used to increase stamina drain. Even though there is no real relation between what the so called mass is, and how much the thing weights irl.

[dapper slate]

so how to properly calculate mass?

whats BI using?

[slender pebble]

you don't

mass is mass

[dapper slate]

mass is volume and weight together

thats why its so weird

[pale patio]

@slender pebble Hence the RHS equation we've all been discussing

[slender pebble]

that one looks familiar

I wonder if it's the same we use for getWeight

[pale patio]

which approximates weight/volume by use of the actual weight and a multipler representing volume to give a "BI Mass" value

[slender pebble]

Kg:

(round (n * 0.1 * 100)) / 100

Lbs

 (round (n * 0.1 * (1/2.2046) * 100)) / 100

I reused this code from ace_common_fnc_getWeight for consistency, no idea who made it originally so don't harp on me

and considering I moved it from the movement module the history has changed

but afaik we use that since 2015

if it's not older from AGM /CSE

[hearty island]

From AGM atleast

[dapper slate]

the hell

[slender pebble]

// by commy2

I KNEW IT

@alpine robin
pls, explain https://github.com/KoffeinFlummi/AGM/blob/af96248776cf302c071e23f27e2fac5271bbe2ea/AGM_Movement/functions/fn_getWeight.sqf

[unreal zinc]

Thats what we use yeah

Works good

Have to adjust the rest of the stuff as well but if you did it once you got a reliable system

[quartz magnet]

Man the new DayZ watercourses look so good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IClZBVQ2lo0

I really hope they bring this to Arma 4

[slender pebble]

water flowing in a single direction

perfect

[knotty plinth]

Is it possible to host your own DayZ server yet?

[quartz magnet]

(and release Cherna for A4 too, at some point....)

[alpine robin]

What's there to explain? That's just an estimate, but it fails horribly for the edge cases.

mass is volume and weight together
Not really. It's, as I said, a generic take-up-this-much-inventory-space unit. It's neither a mass, nor a volume.

[dapper slate]

still it counts on carry system

[alpine robin]

"carry system"

Stamina?

[dapper slate]

well its part of it

"Mass is a new unit used to describe weight and volume of an object used. Each container has a set capacity in the same units."

even officially they say its weight/volume

[hearty island]

Where?

[dapper slate]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Weapon_Config_Guidelines

[hearty island]

That is the wiki

that isn't official

[alpine robin]

Stamina is not part of the "carry system". There is no "carry system".

[hearty island]

It's edited by the community

[alpine robin]

Yeah, the community is full of crap most of the time.

[hearty island]

The same community that says that there is some "weight" thingy

That really doesn't exist

[dapper slate]

🙄

[alpine robin]

It's the truth. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[hearty island]

BI call's it mass and the free space in containers is volume

1 mass == 1 volume

so.. you could say mass is weight and volume is volume

[dapper slate]

call it whatever but tell me whats the proper way to get that value

[hearty island]

But they are both arbitrary names choosen by some dev

[dapper slate]

mr expert 😛

[hearty island]

get what value?

[alpine robin]

getNumber (configFile >> "CfgWeapons" >> _item >> "mass")

If you mean, how to get one for a custom item... Compare it with the closest thing there is in the base game and use that.

[dapper slate]

"This is why ACE3 community member commy2 came up with a simple formula to calculate the inventory mass units out of the real world weight. He takes the weight in grams, multiplies it by 2.2 and then divides this sum by 0.1. The result of this equation is the mix of volume and weight."

so this is bullshit ?

[hearty island]

@dapper slate No. Commy came up with the formula

[alpine robin]

Well, for AGM, not ACE, but same diff.

[unreal zinc]

Why do you devaluate your own system so much commy? Can only say that we use that for now all of the RHS gear and it works.

[hearty island]

Buy a backpack that you can also get in Vanilla Arma. Then get a ton of your item in RL. Pack as many into the backpack. And there. You know how much volume the backpack has. And how many items are supposed to fit. Choose mass accordingly

@unreal zinc RHS dev himself said that formula is bullshit

[alpine robin]

That's good to hear I guess, but it's still just some bs I came up in 5 minutes.

[unreal zinc]

@hearty island who?

[dapper slate]

dedmem how helpful is that lol

[hearty island]

reyhard

[alpine robin]

And he's right.

[hearty island]

@dapper slate 100% helpful. Because that's exactly how it works

[unreal zinc]

I summon thy @narrow crater

[dapper slate]

yea let me get my M240

and fit my backpack

[slender pebble]

y u no reliz update fr tfar ded?

tfar ded, no updat

[hearty island]

yeah. I don't realize

[alpine robin]

You should realize (= make real) TFAR 1.0

[hearty island]

it is real

[alpine robin]

Not on Steam it isn't.

[hearty island]

Yes it is

[slender pebble]

lies

[alpine robin]

It's not until 0.9.12 is gone.

[hearty island]

That won't ever happen

So many dipshits reuploading that

[sweet axle]

yes the formula is bullshit, in that the variables of the the formula don't have a basis in reality and are simply there by approximation, nor do BIS base their "mass" values on what we know to be mass in the real world. Just that the formula provides a reasonable "best fit" coefficient for converting the arma "mass" of an object to something similar to its real world mass

there is no non-bullshit method for calculating mass values for Arma inventory

[quartz magnet]

Maybe they'll fix it with Arma 4 ™

[cerulean trellis]

is it something that needs fixing? it portrays both weight and volume concerns in a single number

[quartz magnet]

Fix as in, make less BS

[dapper slate]

i like how in dayz you got proper weight and volume

even in modded A2 ACE had that

[unreal zinc]

like RH says, you need a system that uses real values. either kg or liters

otherwise its guessing

where kg would be most fitting

[hearty island]

kg and liters yeah. You need both

If you have a backpack that can hold 50 liters then just having mass doesn't really help

Backpacks can't hold a definite amount of weight. They are volume based

[unreal zinc]

well then again you have to come up with a complex system that concluded both

[sweet axle]

indeed, it would be better to separate them. volume is really only needed to determine how much stuff will fit in a container, and mass is only really important to a container when you are placing the container in something to transport it - it doesn't affect how much stuff actually fits inside

where mass matters is on the body that is transporting it

[hearty island]

You can't have a complex system that puts both into one

Density needs volume AND mass

And volume needs mass and density
and mass needs volume and density

[unreal zinc]

Lol its aobut how much of anything fits in a container not how much iron and how much water together with in one container 😛

[hearty island]

yeah?

Weapons also have a density

[sweet axle]

but in what system in game is density important?

[hearty island]

none

But it's the thing that connects mass and volume

[sweet axle]

buoyancy is the only one. And that's not determined in config

[hearty island]

you need mass+density or volume+density or mass+volume. Just one isn't enough

[sweet axle]

true. mass and volume are more direct though

[quartz magnet]

Or use m^3 instead of L

[hearty island]

Just trying to say you won't get away with a single value

[sweet axle]

density would only be used to derive mass or volume using the other value in most instances

[unreal zinc]

m³ for you @quartz magnet 😛

[quartz magnet]

Oh yeah, I forgot I can do that easily on mobile...

[unreal zinc]

but m³ instead of liter is a bit of a waste of numbers. 1 m³ is 1000l afair

[fossil ermine]

cubic centimeters then

[quartz magnet]

^

[unreal zinc]

lol

[quartz magnet]

or mm^3

what i meant was, SI units

[hearty island]

Super Intelligent Units?

So basically Arma 3 AI?

[fossil ermine]

in either case, having only one value (weight) without volume is just the same as the current "generic value"

[hearty island]

While driving over a bridge

[unreal zinc]

well liter is also an SI unit.

[fossil ermine]

@hearty island 🤦

[quartz magnet]

plus it's easier to measure the volume of a magazine box or gun in m^3 than litre, i would assume

well liter is also an SI unit.
hah. wasn't sure if SI or MKS

also lol dedmen

they're Super Elite Units

they sneak in from the water

after diving off

it's a cunning plan

[alpine robin]

@unreal zinc Liter is not a SI unit. cubic decimeter is though.

[hearty island]

@quartz magnet Sadly they don't have enough money to buy a boat. So they didn't make it to america yet. But they are swimming hard!

[quartz magnet]

lol. and they shoot up all the boats they find

[unreal zinc]

@alpine robin well that IS a liter 😛

[alpine robin]

There are 7 SI units, and liter is not one of them.

[hearty island]

lidder litter

[quartz magnet]

There are only 2 shadow casting light sources in Arma, and litre is not one of them.

[slender pebble]

stop litering

[hearty island]

litrering you mean?

[slender pebble]

I always misspell it. (litre / liter)

[quartz magnet]

isn't the difference just brit/murican spelling?

[slender pebble]

considering i'm french "litre" is also the french spelling

so it kinda gets confusing

but then again the murican's call nuclear nucular and aluminium aluminum

[fossil ermine]

nucular is something only non-majority elected presidents use afaik

[slender pebble]

you scared the everliving shit out of me before that edit

[fossil ermine]

why?

[slender pebble]

saying nucular was used by presidents only

tfw most of the south is now comprised of presidents of the US

[fossil ermine]

ahhh, political correctness and all that

yeah man, the very educated need to follow suite after the supreme commander, not their fault

[slender pebble]

no, it's just wrong english

there's english (UK) and bad english (US)

[fossil ermine]

no man, it is english and american according to some

[meager tundra]

My sides

[quartz magnet]

to be fair, the americans spell some things better - or more logically

like meter vs metre

[fossil ermine]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgAEQ4ZqtjY

[slender pebble]

I mean.... the metric units are french

[quartz magnet]

ah so that's the problem 😛

[slender pebble]

if we go by most used language we can all switch to chinese

[meager tundra]

[fossil ermine]

in any case, from a gameplay perspective it is shit, from a gun porn perspective, i'd love that same system

[slender pebble]

gun porn is 10/10

the whole thing built around it isn't

[fossil ermine]

yeah

[meager tundra]

It's really sexy

[fossil ermine]

it doesn't deserve a game of its own though

[slender pebble]

also, the compression of the assets

[fossil ermine]

you mean texture compression?

[slender pebble]

everything is insanely compressed, the game is 5GB

[meager tundra]

I was so confused when I downloaded it

[slender pebble]

either that or they're fuckign wizards of procedural tech

[meager tundra]

Like wtf

No way it's 5 GB

[fossil ermine]

😃 there isn\t anything procedural afaik

from a game development pov the shit that eats GBs are sounds and textures

but yeah, just compare their art dumps from their arstation pages with the quality of the shit ingame

not bad, but pretty far off

[meager tundra]

There is a lot of post processing on though, so I guess that kinda hides the texture quality

Also, very, very dark game

[slender pebble]

their models ain't bad tbh

[cinder reef]

tarkov is pretty fun

[slender pebble]

it's because it's in russia, everything is grey there 😄

[fossil ermine]

that that is build on an engine that has nowadays shaders

[slender pebble]

true pufu

[fossil ermine]

@cinder reef really?

i sort of missed all the fun then

[cinder reef]

yeah been playing tonnes

[meager tundra]

Well, I don't know what I'm talking about so idk what you expect Pufu :P

[hearty island]

Yeah. @hollow nymph is streaming a lot of it. It really looks awesome

[slender pebble]

I prefer watching it

[hollow nymph]

„lot“

[hearty island]

I think I have seen it a year or so ago. When it was basically a pile of garbage

[slender pebble]

because that way I don't have to deal with the desync or bullshit spawns

[fossil ermine]

hmm, will give it another try

[meager tundra]

Best played with a friend I believe

[slender pebble]

anything is "best played with a friend"

[cinder reef]

yeah don't get it now if you hate bs desync/hackers/beta stuff

[meager tundra]

Yeah, for those that have them

Heh

[fossil ermine]

i already have it @cinder reef , since early beta, pre-ordered it

[cinder reef]

yeah I know just saying generally

[fossil ermine]

gave my account to for a run to @wanton arrow, not sure if he played it recently or not

[slender pebble]

the one thing that arma does right is sounds

[fossil ermine]

the desynk was shit, the ones that were farming gear were way pretty bullet proof for what i was playing with

[slender pebble]

I know if something is above or below me

[hearty island]

But when I look at the price options when buying.... Looks alot like pay to win....

[cinder reef]

Also after playing tarkov I rebound my arma controls to x + scrollwheel for stance adjustment because hell's horses that's genius

made me feel dumb for not thinking of it all those years in arma

[fossil ermine]

and then there was the random melee guy that wasn't dying before being able to hack you due to desynk

[meager tundra]

Hatchlings

[hearty island]

@slender pebble In TFAR 1.0 you can now also know if something is above or below you :3

[meager tundra]

I believe they're called

Haha

[slender pebble]

worst sound goes to rainbow six siege, sure it sounds nice, but goddamnit positional audio is stupidly bad

[cinder reef]

@slender pebble i love you

[slender pebble]

sounds go through walls goddamnit, NOT AROUND THEM

[knotty plinth]

I got a video where someone hatchets a guy 10+ times and he doesnt die

[cinder reef]

every time I see someone metnion r6 siege sound on the internet they praise it

usually after watching that stupid ubisoft video

[hearty island]

@cinder reef I'm quite sure Splinter Cell Chaos theory also had stance adjustment somewhat like that. You could set your speed with that and also your movement height indirectly

[slender pebble]

the tower map that was added this season (and they added it to ranked directly too, geniuses) is the worst

[wanton arrow]

@hearty island ACRE > TFAR ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[slender pebble]

YES

HE KNOWS

so, now, ded, GIB TFAR 1.0

naow

[fossil ermine]

ah yeah, i have the controls set to scroll wheel for arma since the begining

[meager tundra]

GIB RHS UP-

Oh wait

Damn

🤔

[cinder reef]

atm the sound in tarkov also needs rework (samples are fantastic but engine not so, no way to tell verticallity & things directly front/back flip)

whereas the sound in r6 siege is just stupid design and should die in a fire

[meager tundra]

Reverbs sounds great from gunfire, the little I played.

[fossil ermine]

@meager tundra you know how the kissing emoji was made, yeah, if not google it 😉

[knotty plinth]

Our group is wanting to try TFAR 1.0 when it's out

[fossil ermine]

what is TFAR?

[slender pebble]

it's ACRE but worse

[fossil ermine]

what is ACRE?

[hearty island]

It's like ACE. But with an R inbetween

[cinder reef]

TFAR for tedious people ;)

[slender pebble]

TFAR is for people who don't know ACRE exist

[hearty island]

It's TFAR but better

[fossil ermine]

@hearty island 🚓 ip infrigement

I'm just getting a bunch of clickbait articles, sorry :P

[slender pebble]

subnautica releases soon ™ I want the arma sharks to be angry angry fishes

[meager tundra]

Well then

[slender pebble]

gotta get some danger in those waters

[knotty plinth]

I love ACRE but hate the stupid interference from having half your body covered by a hill when the guy talking on the radio is 50m away

[slender pebble]

well

TFAR 1.0 is also going to do that

[knotty plinth]

😢

[slender pebble]

because that's how radios work

[hearty island]

No

It doesn't :U

[meager tundra]

Commence the 2035 argument

[slender pebble]

LIES DED

[knotty plinth]

Having only half your body covered by a hill, whilst the guy talking, does not = he's cutting out IRL

[hearty island]

get's the 🗞 out

[meager tundra]

This is the future etc etc

[slender pebble]

Several people are typing

[knotty plinth]

I think that's the only gripe I have with ACRE

[fossil ermine]

@knotty plinth it does, you know nothing about radio communication man, go back to your desk

[meager tundra]

🔥

[knotty plinth]

@fossil ermine I'd like to see some video to prove pls

[fossil ermine]

sarcasm 1:1 failed

[hearty island]

shows @knotty plinth a video of the proof

there

[knotty plinth]

calls hax

[fossil ermine]

can i show him any video i want as proof?

[knotty plinth]

😂

[twilit oar]

Just call them on your iphone instead of radio

duh

[fossil ermine]

hipster soldiers....

oh wait, i also owned all iphone models....

[meager tundra]

Commercial walkie talkies are basically depreciated now

[knotty plinth]

But nah for real, it's my only gripe with ACRE tbf, my only dislike to TFAR was my experience in every-single-server with a radio that was deemed 5k, could seemingly transmit some 12k without issue

[sweet axle]

a video of radio waves? 😄

[meager tundra]

Been years since I saw someone not just use their phone or whatever

[fossil ermine]

of waves, yes

[tranquil bay]

posts a video of radio waves ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

[slender pebble]

[fossil ermine]

[slender pebble]

and the TULULU

[hearty island]

@knotty plinth I can assure you that 5km radios don't transmit 12 😉 My gripe with TFAR was that someone above you was inside your head -.-

[fossil ermine]

you muricans don't know what style is

[tranquil bay]

😄

[slender pebble]

you know what I hate with the workshop?

I type ace3 and I get 40 pages of bullshit

[knotty plinth]

@hearty island Been a while since I last used them, what range are the FADAKS if thats the name

[hearty island]

5km ^^

[unique haven]

yeah the workshop search & filtering is horrible

[knotty plinth]

Yeah, I have memories using them on Takistan and talking from the south-village-town-whatever and people in Rasman could talk to me just fine

[fossil ermine]

@slender pebble i don't need to type anything for RHS, i find it on first page under most popular 🔥

[alpine robin]

Yes, by 2035, radio waves will work differently.

[hearty island]

There are only 4 types of ranges. Fadak/152/148/some other that I don't remember are all 5km.
Then backpacks are 10 and airborne are 20 I think. And the rifleman radio (The one that you can't program without a programmer) are less

[slender pebble]

time to hurt myself reading those comments

[meager tundra]

2.5 KM

[slender pebble]

jesus

[meager tundra]

The rifleman radios

[slender pebble]

three comments in i'm already about to close the page

[knotty plinth]

I don't know if the servers I played on worked any magic of sorts but yeah, I never had any real issue talking 10K+ distance on them ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fossil ermine]

copy paste

[knotty plinth]

I do love the vehicle radios and the LRs though, I believe ACRE is getting something similar implemented at some point

gonna be cooool

[slender pebble]

Dear ACE team, I really recommend you to switch back to modules, because it is a really big cluster. It was way easier with the modules before instead of the addons settings. So please ACE team switch back to modules to make it easier for everybody.
And make VA default again. 

Hey ACE team I fear you may face a a decline the amount of People using your Mod as almost every server that used to run ace no longer does because the new non module up date has broken all of our mission files If you could please go back to the module system that wwould be much appreciated and or make a sepperate alternate mod version alongsidde the normal version that either uses or deosnt use the module system and add it to the steam workshop this comes from several of mission makers and server owners. 

Dear ACE team, I really recommend you to switch back to modules, because it is a really big cluster. It was way easier with the modules before instead of the addons settings. So please ACE team switch back to modules to make it easier for everybody.
And make VA default again (and make it so both arsenals share the same loadouts in case I alternate between them). 

[meager tundra]

@alpine robin duh

[hearty island]

@knotty plinth yeah ACRE has vehicle Radios in their beta. TFAR also has Vehicle Intercom now btw

[alpine robin]

You copied the same thing twice.

[meager tundra]

We all know waveform functions changes with technology

[slender pebble]

no, they're different

[knotty plinth]

I remember seeing the setting change with ACE, I was scared I didn't launch with it for a minute 😄

[slender pebble]

it's from 2 different persons commy 😄

[knotty plinth]

@hearty island I'm now excited for both 😄

[hearty island]

Dear ACE team, I really recommend you to switch back to modules, because it is a really big cluster. I can confirm that. With modules you always have a big cluster of modules in every mission

[slender pebble]

it's beautiful

[alpine robin]

How small can a cluster be? Is two things a cluster?

[meager tundra]

No

That's a pair

Iirc a cluster is >3

[hearty island]

more than an octet atleast

because all lower things have names

[alpine robin]

And exactly 3 is a threesome.

[tranquil bay]

😉

[slender pebble]

Who in the world asked for ACE Arsenal? I can't see the armor values or load capacity of any piece of gear in the editor. Magazines for a ton of weapons in our Content Pack are missing and gone to who knows where. Please, for once, give us the option to not use something that doesn't require some back alley edits to the whole mod. Sweet Jesus what a mistake rolling it out before doing any testing of any kind with any mods (including RHS) or most 3rd party weapons packs. Can we go back to AGM? 

[hearty island]

XD

[slender pebble]

ah, yes, the glorious armor values

[meager tundra]

Can we go back to agm

My sides

[slender pebble]

who would forget about them

[meager tundra]

Have left

[alpine robin]

@hearty island Google "nonet".

[meager tundra]

The observable universe

[alpine robin]

AGM was better than ACE tbqh.

[slender pebble]

my drive to finish stats is going down after each comment

[sweet axle]

I see a pattern Dear ACE team I will start my message politely but my "feedback" none the less becomes increasingly passive-aggressive as you read it

[slender pebble]

a third are about ace arsenal, an other third about modules, and the rest about some random stuff because they didn't update properly / unreleated

[fossil ermine]

i love these sort of comments the most:
Great mod superb work. Any posibility for a French, German, Japanese, Italian, British, Spanish or Chinese mod?

[twilit oar]

Lol

[meager tundra]

I would just respond with "you are welcome to test future RC candidates and give us your feedback before it releases, if you think it isn't being tested enough, sincerely X"

[slender pebble]

"pls, gib content"

Give us back our normal Arsenal please. WHY would you REMOVE it this sucks. Please give it back 

[hearty island]

つ ◕_◕ ༽つ GIB 1.0

[quartz magnet]

😄

[slender pebble]

guys, I'm removing BI funcs now

[hearty island]

Yeah. Let's do that.

[meager tundra]

Lmao

[hearty island]

To teach people things are wrong

[meager tundra]

Great idea

[hearty island]

like BIS_fnc_MP

[slender pebble]

that's basically what the wrapper someone PR'd does

[hearty island]

It's useless anyway

[meager tundra]

Wait

Link it

I don't believe you

[slender pebble]

no, I won't link PRs here

[meager tundra]

Can you PM me it?

[slender pebble]

why in the world are you forcing us to use your ugly arsenal? why can't i turn on ammo counter unless i delete ace_reload? what the hell were you thinking? 

[hearty island]

Yes

[alpine robin]

He's right though. It's really stupid that you can't enable the ammo counter.

[hearty island]

Why did you make a mod that I don't like but I still use?!?!?!?!111!?!?!1121111

[slender pebble]

ACE3 confirmed best hacking tool

[alpine robin]

Tell that jonpas and baer.

[hearty island]

@slender pebble cough Intercept cough

[slender pebble]

I can modify and lock windows permissions through ace3

so you can't delete the PBO

that's how good we are

[hearty island]

We can use Intercept to disable ACE features at startup.. By using the live config editing stuff

[meager tundra]

Using a tool named intercept that dedmen mentions is never a good idea

[hearty island]

As long as it won't intercept your 🏳️‍🌈

[slender pebble]

good thing I don't look at the steam workshop comments holy fuck it's a cesspool

i'll stick to github / forums / slack alright

[alpine robin]

I miss the times when gay meant happy and faggot was a bunch of sticks.

[fossil ermine]

why the fuck do you lads still use slack though?

[slender pebble]

BECAUSE ITS SUPERIOR

blob emojis ftw

does discord have blob emojis? yeah that's what I thought!

[hearty island]

Discord doesn't have Threads

And the "You need to register with email" barrier keeps idiots out

[alpine robin]

Thank god.

[fossil ermine]

you can keep idiots out by not making your server public

[slender pebble]

the arsenal stats are so bullshit it hurts....

[fossil ermine]

it's even easier than email barrier

can these arsenal stats be modded out altogether though?

[slender pebble]

yep

am working on it

[fossil ermine]

nais

[slender pebble]

but i'm wondering more and more about if I should add "bars" and the vanilla stats

[fossil ermine]

i would remove that altogether

[hearty island]

I know that I don't care about them at all. Because they don't really mean much

[slender pebble]

but then you'll hear OMG NO VANILLA STATS

[fossil ermine]

we also get plenty questions about why this behaves worse than this, because according to the arsenal stats, it shouldn't

[hearty island]

weight is important. but else...

[slender pebble]

how do you know what does more damage !

[fossil ermine]

read above

[hearty island]

Not like a bullet in the head always kills anyways

[slender pebble]

wait a sec, i'll post the code

[fossil ermine]

not always 😃

[hearty island]

And that it doesn't matter that a 5000000000 damage bullet does 0 damage when it hits a vest with 5km/h

[fossil ermine]

you have the hicup on hit animation as well

[slender pebble]

    params ["_stats", "_config", "_args"];
    _args params ["_hitMinMax", "_initSpeedMinMax", "_launcherTabIDC"];

    private _statValues = [
        [_config],
        [_stats select 0, _stats select 1],
        [true, false],
        [_hitMinMax select 0, _initSpeedMinMax select 0]
    ] call BIS_fnc_configExtremes;
    (_statValues select 1) params ["_hit", "_initSpeed"];

    _hit = linearConversion [_hitMinMax select 0, _hitMinMax select 1, _hit, 0.01, 1];
    _initSpeed = linearConversion [_initSpeedMinMax select 0, _initSpeedMinMax select 1, _initSpeed, 0.01, 1];

    [sqrt(_hit^2 * _initSpeed), _hit] select (GVAR(currentLeftPanel) == _launcherTabIDC)

the limits are predefined because fuck doing config lookups

that's the exact same code as BI VA but in a different format

the 2 non bullshit stats are mass and max load, because they actually do make sense.

[fossil ermine]

you are aware i mainly bully polies into submission, i can read that but have no idea what it does 😉

[alpine robin]

No idea either, but scripting is a hundred times easier than art/models/textures.

[hearty island]

I also can't really read that

[meager tundra]

Oh man

[hearty island]

I guess I could if I wanted to.. but hell no I'm not gonna read that

[meager tundra]

Reading ACE3 steam comments is hilarious

[slender pebble]

it retrieves the hit and initSpeed config values from the weapon config and convert it to a 0-1 range

[fossil ermine]

i was expecting more from both you @hearty island and @alpine robin

[slender pebble]

the square root is from bis:
//--- Make impact influenced by muzzle speed

[hearty island]

💩

[slender pebble]

well, it's all from BIS because I tried matching their stats to avoid people crying

[fossil ermine]

what about vests and shit?

same code/

[alpine robin]

What exactly did you expect? Us trashing it? Praising it?

[slender pebble]

nope, nothing

[hearty island]

I guess vests armor value is kinda interesting

[slender pebble]

eeeeh, it's the same thing

[meager tundra]

Tbh you do need to switch to discord @slender pebble

[slender pebble]

minus the square root

[meager tundra]

Slack is worse

It's a fact

[alpine robin]

Slack > discord

[fossil ermine]

good grief ^^

yeah because ammo behaviour is defined in the rifle

and the arsenal does shows you stats for ammo as well ./s

[alpine robin]

ROF and mass are like the only proper stats you can get from a weapon.

[hearty island]

I really only care about ACE AB stats :u

[slender pebble]

basically:
[["configEntry1"], "Title", [show bar BOOL, show text BOOL], [arguments], [{bar progress code}, {text code}]]

[hearty island]

BC MV and BW ftw

[fossil ermine]

so the code for arsenal stats for vests (protection) is basically the same?

[slender pebble]

what I linked was the bar statement code

yes

you retrieve the config entries values and do a linear conversion with the extremes of said config entries and the bar limits

the thing is a nightmare to make T.T

tbh I expect to rewrite some parts of it because I forgot something / commy / ded shits on it and show me I fucked up

as usual

[fossil ermine]

can this be replaced with something that is more accurate and meaningfull for the average joe though?

[slender pebble]

such as ?

i'm open for suggestions 😄

but yes, you can replace it entirely or add new stats mid mission if needed 😄

[fossil ermine]

no idea, but since one is able to change it...

neah i am thinking from my own perspective now tbh

[slender pebble]

seems legit, nothing wrong with stats:
https://imgur.com/a/8ePHX

[meager tundra]

@slender pebble Why do you have the imperial system for weight in there? Don't you know it's depreciated by a superior one? 😄

[slender pebble]

because why not show both for the poor muricans

[meager tundra]

Because sometimes the stick works as well as the carrot ;)

[fallen tulip]

HUH

[slender pebble]

also
No update today due to 'logistical issues'.
you meant to post preparing to release the tonks DLC on the dev branch

[dreamy marsh]

[slender pebble]

you have nothing to say about the bars? huehuehue

look at the weapon selected 😄

[fallen tulip]

@meager tundra Chat ID exists

[dreamy marsh]

Mine detector

Accuracy at 55%

"We're not quite sure it's metal, but something is there"

[slender pebble]

"extremely high rate of fire"

[meager tundra]

goodenough™

[slender pebble]

it's because "accuracy" is the dispersion cone 😄

[dreamy marsh]

It has low damage though

[fallen tulip]

No one is carrying you home after you all have missing limbs

[dreamy marsh]

Hope it gets buffed next patch

[meager tundra]

Yeah

It's nerfed af rn

[fallen tulip]

Mine detectors?

[slender pebble]

also, fun fact:
CUP RPG-7 is twice as heavy as vanilla's

[meager tundra]

Uh

[tranquil bay]

LIES!

😄

[meager tundra]

It's a feature ok

[slender pebble]

and the NLAW is somehow 13Kg because mass magic

[meager tundra]

BI just did it wrong

[slender pebble]

and the RPG-32 is lighter than the RPG-7

somehow

[meager tundra]

Idk

Composites I guess?

[dreamy marsh]

[dreamy marsh]

why is the black text slightly indented to the right

[meager tundra]

Uh

WIP?

😁

[slender pebble]

it's not?

it's an optical illusion huehuehue

the text and title controls start at the exact same pixel

[meager tundra]

Cannot

Unsee

[slender pebble]

see the searchbar button?

see the frame below it? ITS ONE PIXEL LARGER THAN THE BUTTON

because frames are rendered in a different manner than all other controls

[meager tundra]

I'm Uninstalling ACE right now

[hearty island]

Good

Keep it up

[slender pebble]

uninstall arma

[hearty island]

uininstall all the things

[slender pebble]

because all controls with frames have that issue 😄

[meager tundra]

Just cease all development on ACE until this gets fixed

It's basically fatal

[hearty island]

Just cease development on it till it get's developed

yes

[meager tundra]

Yes

[dreamy marsh]

Those god damn frames

I hate them

[hearty island]

Intercept can now make custom UI control types btw

Did I already say that publically anywhere?

[dreamy marsh]

It makes everything look like its from 2006

[meager tundra]

Then your legacy is complete.

No one is allowed to die until the ACE medical rewrite is complete.

Then we can all die simultaneously.

And no one will complain about anything ever again.

There is no channel for advertising streams. Good streams create their own advertising. 👍🏻

[pale patio]

If a good stream plays in the woods and there is no-one there to watch it, does it go viral?

[knotty plinth]

👀

[finite relic]

Ask the bear who may or may not be having a poo 💩

[lucid socket]

Anyway, thankx to people who stopped by to channel. You woun't be eaten by pooping bear.

[meager tundra]

💩

[hearty island]

I love people who have to go everywhere and tell everyone to like and subscribe because they know very well that their content quality is too bad that anyone would watch or like it otherwise

[meager tundra]

To be fair, and this isn't excusing posting in a fkn discord channel for ARMA, it is really hard to get going as a YT channel compared to back in the day.

Due to how suggestion algorithms and searches work

[slender pebble]

aka fucking impossible

[meager tundra]

That's also another word for it, heh

I legit would not go into YT if I was starting out, if I had to choose, I'd go Twitch or the new platform Linus Tech Tips is working on.

[finite relic]

That would be “Fk’n”

[slender pebble]

shortening "bad words" to those does nothing outside of putting the word in your head

[lucid socket]

@hearty island I love people who haven't even seen some content but they already judge it is good or bad. No, I m kidding. I don't love them. They are empty people.

[hearty island]

Okey looked at it. Even worse. You are advertising in a Arma discord. And you don't even Stream Arma

[slender pebble]

nobody would watch it.

[hearty island]

So besides begging people for likes your stuff even doesn't belong here at all

[lucid socket]

Stream is over. I would not allow you to watch anyway. I was not begging. I was asking nicely. Know the difference. Good bye empty person.

[slender pebble]

you wouldn't allow it oh god my sides

[hearty island]

Good bye black fish

Back to Arma stuff.
Nvidia Ansel + Arma. Thoughts?

[slender pebble]

how to fix arma aliasing once and for all^

just play at 3 seconds per frame at 30K

[hearty island]

I'm not sure if I can force Ansel to do continuous screenshots

[short plaza]

it's pretty cool in general. would be interesting to see how it works. haven't tried myself, but did see some images.

[hearty island]

Sadly all the games that use it besides Witcher are... Nothing I like.
And I think it would fit Arma quite well.

[finite relic]

@slender pebble in reference to my earlier comment, it’s about #rules

(Not just Arma’s, but Discord’s as well) its really not too much to ask...

[spice ice]

I just tried the eden editor for the first time today. Didnt even know it existed. Holy shit.

I just spent the whole morning spawning troops and mowing them down with an a10

BRRRRPPPPPP

[quartz magnet]

Didnt even know it existed
Yeah it's not on the main menu, dunno why that is... 😛

[hearty island]

These kids nowadays. Don't even member the time before eden

[quartz magnet]

well... it's just a CTRL+O away...

[slender pebble]

TIL there's a supply500 class now

I thought 480 was the max

oh god my sides

you can equip a laser sight on the titan

[quartz magnet]

is...that vanilla behaviour?

[slender pebble]

my guess is CBA JR

[night rover]

anyone here got a ryzen 1600? how do you like it when it comes to arma?

[slender pebble]

HAHAHA

it's vanilla behavior !

P.E.R.F.E.C.T

[night rover]

oops #hardware_vs_arma

[slender pebble]

[obsidian patrol]

better silencer... more useful

[quartz magnet]

LOL @ titan with flashlight

[slender pebble]

I wanna mount an MOS on that rail

[quartz magnet]

what's funny/sad is that neither the AKS nor the AKM can mount a flashlight or pointer

[pale patio]

how else are you going to find the tanks at night?

[slender pebble]

no dovetail mount on the AKs

[quartz magnet]

(although AKM has a sekrit flashlight variant)

[slender pebble]

😭

[quartz magnet]

lol gbee

[obsidian patrol]

bipod also... will be nice btw

[quartz magnet]

what's the point of bipod if you can't fire while prone...

(weapon resting, obv)

[obsidian patrol]

flashlight on titan is useless without bipod

better if both on same rail also

you can use it like slingshot

[finite relic]

Flash hider or suppressor for the Titan? 😋

[obsidian patrol]

yes pls, need reduce backblast flash a little

[floral ore]

Someone should totally add/re-make Ghost from MW2.

Like as an NPC.

That would be so cool to see.

[knotty plinth]

🤔

[slender pebble]

do it then

you'll learn some things along the way too

[floral ore]

I'm way too busy lol

And have no time. It would be cool to see though.

If I were to ever be interested in making Arma III content if I ever had the appropriate time, where would I start?

[slender pebble]

#arma3_model has tutorials pinned, you can also ask around the creative editing channels

[knotty plinth]

Google and the forums, then figure out what you want to try first

[cinder osprey]

Need some good reccomendations on steam workshop for good Domination style coop missions! currently am playing Battlezone Altis with a friend and am looking for something similar.

[slender pebble]

@knotty plinth
they're getting self aware:

somedude:
GIVE DEFAULT VIRTUAL ARSENAL, I DO NOT WANT TO USE ACE ARSENAL

angry dude:
I do not think, acemod's Workshop, author checks these posts and or crares because iI never 
see a reply. What gives ?????

stuck key dude:
This mod seriously ruins some things that just should have been left alone the ACE 3 loadout crap sucks and too clunky to use when virtual arsenal worked just fine also the rocket launcher sounds are annoying whenever i fire a high energy projectile or somethin its just cinstant ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ screeching over my speakers pls make a mod where the crap ace 3 arsenal isnt implemented

[knotty plinth]

😂

[slender pebble]

I swear some people must be using ace arsenal and not realize it

I should start making a list of steam users that just insult me / my work and clear off their profile on game start.... how would I call it, ah, I know "the naughty list" 😄

[cinder osprey]

Tbh... and Im a noob.. but I still haven;t been able to get it to work properly.. and I really want it to work for the freaking search functions... its such a pain scrolling through tons of shit when I could use a search box.

[slender pebble]

get what to work?

[cinder osprey]

Ace Arsenal.

[slender pebble]

what's your issue ?

just in case:
https://ace3mod.com/wiki/framework/arsenal-framework.html

I should add a section saying there's a way to port loadouts under 3DEN -> tools now

[cinder osprey]

Wow... nevermind... so it can be used but it has to be supported by the map maker.. ie custom loaded?

[slender pebble]

no?

I mean, if the mission uses BI VA you'll still get BI VA

[cinder osprey]

Im just asking because you showed me the framework page which mentioned having to add it to items and stuff.

Yeah.

I think thats the issue.

[slender pebble]

it's not an issue

[cinder osprey]

None of the missions I've played are using Aces... theyre using the BI VA.

I think*

[slender pebble]

imagine the shitstorm if I replaced it all

[cinder osprey]

Like I said, I'm still new to A3 even though I've had it for a while.
