does anyone know where to play arma 2/1 multiplayer in 2024?

twin summit
#

For 2, mostly you have dayz servers. Best bet is playing with friends.

Afaik vanilla no

You can consider MCC Sandbox to be Arma 2's equivalent of A3's Zeus which has its own built "3D editor".
There's also the hidden 3D editor in Arma 2 itself (no mods needed), though it's not quite comparable to A3's Eden editor.

Also do you know if I can make scenes in A2 like I can in A3?

Like in the M editor

Seems so yeah. Check my message here if you want some specific mod, should have all of them on my ssd/private cloud drive. Unfortunately only have the files itself and nothing else, like dependencies needed etc, like the old site view had.

arma 3 is goated

#

so you should

#

depending on what you're looking to play multi or single

#

both arma 2 and 3 is great for single player but if you wanna hop into multiplayer some time then go for arma 3

ripe rune
#

Some niche going on in Arma 2 Combined Operations, like modded DayZ (although theres gamemodes like Exile in Arma 3 also). Warfare too which has more variety in A3 but less balanced overall cuz so many different mods in the servers by different creators, unless you want to play vanilla which is very limited to what A2CO can offer you. If you are not looking to play these gamemodes in multiplayer, or to do singleplayer, Arma 3 all the way!

#

I’d say give it a go, and you can always refund with Steam if it doesn’t run good.

#

👍

#

Yes. Especially if you play Takistan

#

Chernarus is very demanding

#

From steam support I think. Have to have less than 2 hours played

#

I think with some tweaking and on your current laptop you can find fun out of it.

#

Mhhm, slow hdd and not so much ram causes that, but you’re running very old entry level laptop so that’s expected.

#

Aah desktop? That gpu was so weird lmao.

#

Still a few ARMA 2 DayZ/Epoch servers running too (funnily, the mod is still under active development for ARMA 2)

tacit spire
#

does Arma CWA have any sort of free camera or something like splendid camera to zoom around and view the map?

sick mauve
#

this exec "camera.sqs"; on a unit works just fine.

#

Add a trigger that gets activated by your unit and toggle showCinemaBorder false; if you want to get rid of the letterbox overlay.

I was planning on buying Arma 2 Complete collections to play with my friends(as we don't have a good pc to run Arma 3)
So I had some questions about the game like does this game have official servers to play on?

ripe rune
#

Also remember to start Arma 2 vanilla once first, then run Operation Arrowhead to find all the servers. DayZ ones might require mandatory mods so launcher is very convenient, if you want to play that.

Any mod that improves arma 2 combined operations graphics

for first - buy arma 3
for 2nd - wait for Arma 4 I guess

Does anyone know if it is possible to manually check the boxes in the scenarios in Arma 2? One of my scenarios is buggy and I can't complete it. Unfortunately "Endmission" doesn't help either, because no checkmark is set after the mission.

Idk the one where you press "Shift" + "-" and type "endmission". The scenario ends but I get no checkmark. It would be interesting to know if I can edit som data files to manually set the checkmark

# clear rover Any multiplayer community still alive for arma 2?

Depends what you're looking for. In A2CO (a2 vanilla + Operation Arrowhead) there's many DayZ servers, then there's a few PvE servers, and my server is the largest Team versus Team one which runs the Warfare gamemode. COOP/operations? Probably not, as those are nowadays in Arma 3.

Remember that if you are going to use third party work/mods/files/models/textures or whatever, you must ask their permission.
You cannot release a mod with files from other modders without their consent and credits of course.

mighty yew
#

You can, depending on the license. Any APL license would allow redistribution. Not on Steam (only because of the Workshop EULA) but we're not talking about ARMA 3 here

#

Attribution is required ofc under any APL

#

That said, would depend on the specific license. Don't see one in the pbo provided which suggests that it has none, therefore no permissions, without asking. Just saying, APL and its derivative licenses do allow redistribution (even the APL-ND one 🤣 )

Also, what's "the latest Arma 2 OA Patch"? A2 is in Steam, so you don't need to install any patches outside Steam.

Since armedassault.info domain was recently sold, and I had downloaded (hopefully all) the files from it with my scripts. People were asking for the mods here, so I decided to make the Google Drive folder public.
The cloud drive is somewhat bandwidth limited, and we'll see what happens once the people start downloading these mods at the same time. It might not be very wise of you to all start hoarding all the files at the same time because then it surely gets blocked and nobody will be able to download anything for set amount of time, so keep this in mind.

PREREQUISITES

DISCLAIMER

I have downloaded these files from the old armedassault.info site. While it's unlikely that it had any malicious files, I'd still proceed with caution especially when opening the executable setup files. If in doubt, don't run any executable files and you should be safe. I'm just providing the files for the community that most likely would be lost otherwise.
**When you have read the notice above, understanding the possible risks, you can open the spoiler link by clicking on it: ** ||https://drive.google.com/embeddedfolderview?id=1saZFKkhygT3DuG9lFkXzmcYC4rQ6lFNM||

Alternatively moddb is still up too, but doesn't obviously have all the files:
https://www.moddb.com/games/armed-assault/mods
https://www.moddb.com/games/arma-2/mods
https://www.moddb.com/games/arma-2-combined-operations/mods
Recently @mystic monolith opened the old armedassault site on his domain:
http://ftp.armedassault.info.jerryhopper.com/
http://www.armedassault.info.jerryhopper.com/
The FTP is more reliable right now as it seems the main site is a bit broken, maybe it is fixed later.
These files do not require the password. Maybe 7zip.

Thanks to @gentle marlin, the main link has an embedded view now, allowing you to search for the mods.
& @prisma gull for the idea of making the archives have a password so they don't get flagged by Google's systems.

Have fun.

I don't see any Campaigns for the mod I44

Because i can't see any maps for it

fickle summit
# rain flint I have all of the expansions enabled and the mods enabled but the thing is i don...

Did you enable the mod(s) directly in the game, or using the launch command parameter?
Cause in the Steam version (at least for me), using the launch parameter only causes errors. You only have to enable/disable mods in the game itself. Delete the launch parameter(s) and just enable the mod in the game´s main menu (I think it should be in the Expansions section, but I´d need to check) and restart.

Ok I'm bored and don't have a job so I played around with the google drive API and found this link. Which is similar to file listing you would get from a HTTP server.

#

So you can just do a ctrl + f in your browser.

#

I'm also happy I found that before going down the path of using the curl | jq and extracting the fields that way to make a CSV.

#

Because that link is pretty good on it's own.

ripe rune
# gentle marlin **armedassault.info mirror by Miksuu on google drive: ** https://drive.google.co...

That's awesome! thanks, I'll update the links on the message
However I think I'll still upload them to Blomp over time, especially when I got like 20 warnings out of google when I shared all of the files because it thought some of the files were malicious like BI editing tools lmfao, they are removed now. Just in case if their algorithms change, it picks up something new, and in the end it's my main google account.

#

it's gonna take a while tho, can't upload all the time and it only allows uploads in chunks of like 3gb or something, otherwise it will just fail.

gentle marlin
#

Yeah noticed that. Seems like it could be better off in it's own google drive account.

ripe rune
#

It's like something like 3 euros/month for 200gb and that's not enough for everything (unless maybe if I remove some of the older version files of stuff like CUP weapons). But I think I'll manage to upload to Blomp which is a lot cheaper and if I will be providing the files for longer time, it's going to add up :p

#

and there won't be any false positive detections which doesn't allow me to keep the files in the drive.

gentle marlin
#

Looks like you could get up to 200gb free if you got a couple of folks to accept an invite. Not sure what is required to get that.

#

Also looks like a free account requires regular logins to remain active.

ripe rune
#

Yeah, I saw that. I guess account with referrals is a "free account" so yeah I'd prefer not to do that.

#

Maybe then I can keep the google drive. This blomp is full of shit tbh. Will take ages and my attention away from other things to keep uploading the files.

#

and i guess you could do a passworded zip containing the archive to preserve better

#

Yeah

maybe made with 7z

Can you replace this link here with the one on the pinned post (the one that has the passworded archives)? It seems that I’m getting emails everytime someone tries to request access to it, since it’s not shared anymore, even though I moved the files away.

Other than that, it seems the Python script to make the password archives ran mostly fine (was missing like 40 files for some reason, will sort it out tomorrow). About 1000 files will be still uploading this evening/night.

gentle marlin
ripe rune
#

np, only got two requests :p

#

but yeah, this is useful. Upload will finish during the night then maybe tomorrow or on sunday will make a script to look for the missing mods and archive them too.

#

I think that some PBO files are missing too. since I only downloaded 7z, rar, zip, msi and exe.

#

but mostly its there

gentle marlin

#

Maybe Jerry Hopper will open up a new domain

gentle marlin
#

You could get a free DDNS name from afraid.org, then setup URL forwarding.

#

Just have to occasionally login to keep it active.

#

And that can be automated with a shell script.

#

If you want totally low budget.

ripe rune
# gentle marlin Are the missing ones larger files? I read something about multi part uploads.

I'm not sure. I just saw some pbo and html files on the ftp after the initial run of the script was done (it took quite a while...), and I did not bother redownloading them after this since. However, I made a quick search here https://bidentify.jerryhopper.com/files, and all of the files were the filetypes that I mentioned were downloaded (4266 items), at least on Arma 2 and Arma2 OA of the site.
It was following folders on the server that I had downloaded: upload.html, addons.html, campaigns.html, docs.html, islands.html, mlod.html, multi.html, patches.html, solo.html, test.html, tools.html, utilities.html

Perhaps someday I'll upload them to bidentify and see if there's really something missing. Hopefully he'll be able to host the site again, cuz it's just more convenient and we wouldn't have to fear to run in to any possible bandwitdh limitations by the service (like I have experienced before with Google Drive when sharing mods). I'll surely keep this up tho, have 1TB still left on my drive even with the non-password archived files so that's like 1,25tb in total tbh. With google drive it's totally free cuz I need the space for my own stuff too. Maybe if Jerry is really done with the hosting and we get issues with bandwidth limitations of google, I might look in to some alternative solution then, but I think that it's file specific so perhaps there won't be any issues?

Maybe over time if people notice that something is really missing, have the file, they can send me it and I'll add it to the collection, might search for my old hard drives from like 10 yrs ago too if there's anything valuable. This stuff is just too precious to allow it have to be lost forever.

prisma gull
#

yeah.... google does block downloads if the file gets too viral

#

users have to resort to copying them to their drive and downloading that way without touching it after the copy

ripe rune
prisma gull
ripe rune
#

kk

#

Should be fine then, I'll keep them there forever and if anything doesn't happen to my google account (for some odd reason), it's all good, and just in case I have the drive mirrored to my SSD too.
I saw some forum post about this topic earlier but couldn't find the link. I don't browse Arma forums very often either but if people are asking for the mods there (or on reddit/such), feel free to share the link. I bet that not all people that are looking for the mods are following this channel.

According to the json file the path should be this http://www.armedassault.info.jerryhopper.com/page.php?id=20123, but it doesn't work, as it seems that most of the site is still very broken.

Also it seems that a lot of files might be missing what I've downloaded, might rerun the script in a few days or so to download everything again so they can be on one page.

#

When it takes over your computers main Dir for everything it also fucks with older games that just look for the keyword "Documents" instead of looking for the actual Dir. Arma 1 & 2 both suffer from this issue

#

In Arma 2 saved profiles with the onedrive issue still exist, I think this is because the profile are saved into the game files unlike Arma: Gold E. or Arma 1 which will never save settings or profile names while onedrive still takes priority as your main saving area

prisma gull
#

yeah its a known problem, you need to disable the folder redirection and recreate everything unfortunately @balmy walrus

#

you cant use it for anything because its design philosophy is not how traditional files are stored

balmy walrus
prisma gull
#

all of the arma versions store the profile in the documents folder

#

and the folder location is determined by the system but its possible that any of the files could've stored a absolute path to the folder

vital hedge
#

@balmy walrus try forcing it to save the profiles this way:
-profiles=C:\ArmAProfiles
(If you run it from steam, Go to the game in steam, right click on it, go to properties and then in "Launch Options" paste the line, If you use a launcher, put it in the additional parameters.)

#

In this way it will create the profiles where you are indicating you with that line

balmy walrus
prisma gull
vital hedge
#

@prisma gull No, I'm sorry to disagree with you mate, it is not intended exclusively for servers, by using -profiles=C:\ArmAProfiles you are telling the game not to look for the profiles in the default place, but in the place that you are specifying, in this case C:\ArmAProfiles or it can be the name and location you want, when you run the game it automatically creates that folder and the profiles inside.

# hallow quail Anyone got the dune mod for armed assault?

So it´s a mod for OFP/CWA?
A great chunk of those can be found here: https://files.ofpisnotdead.com/files/ (usually somewhere in of the ofpd subfolders)
Or try searching through this site, which generally features links to either the aforementioned repository or its ftp counterpart: http://ofpr.info.paradoxstudio.uk/
If you have no luck with either, I suggest asking in the pinned Facebook group. The guys there usually respond very quickly and have a very good idea of where to get OFP mods (or they share them themselves).

were Chedaki active in other regions than South Zagoria? It is pretty understandable that almost every major event happens in this one small region because of game limitations etc, but I'm looking for some more fluff regarding the conflict

sick mauve
#

They took over most of the border regions with Russia, not just in South Zagoria. Pretty much the entire Black Mountains range are under ChDKZ control.

You can see a map of their controlled territories in First To Fight when Shaftoe briefs Razor Team on the civil war (deep red is where they firmly control, light red represents contested areas). If not for 27th MEU's arrival, they would have eventually managed to lay siege upon Novigrad.
https://i.imgur.com/myORg2L.png.

Imgur
ember bay
#

so since they campaign lasts fo 14 days more or less, is it actually somehow realistic given how much territory chdkz contested?

sick mauve
#

We don't know the full size of Chernarus, but it's pretty reasonable IMO. Don't forget that the ChDKZ had been fighting for well over a month at this point (FtF takes place on 8th October whereas the civil war kicks off in early September) so their rate of advance isn't too unrealistic.

Karelin's Spetsnaz team were also helping them out too. And according to Silver Lion, there's also Miyovic and his band of insurgents causing trouble in Bystrica so CDF would've been stretched pretty thin.

ember bay
#

oh sorry, I meant 14 days for fighting them back to almost non-existence

merry briar
#

We really know how big Chernarus is, Factbook states it

sick mauve
#

They (the ChDKZ) had 12k troops at the height of their power according to Shaftoe. So even if they won the territories that they contested, they wouldn't have been able to hold onto them while the 27th MEU was attacking their MOBs in South Zagoria.

Yeah, but we know how big the cutout square is so we can pretty easily nail the dimensions of Chernarus in total

...but that's to be expected? Other than the setting, A3 pretty much has all the bells and whistles of A2.

The groups that waited for A3's modding scene to improve after 2013 moved onto A3 while the minority who did not want to move on to A3 or couldn't due to lacking sufficient hardware (or whatever other reason) chose to stay in A2.

# sick mauve ...but that's to be expected? Other than the setting, A3 pretty much has all the...

Expected Yet A3 is still badly optimised than A2, i just dont really get the point that if A3 blows up quickly then why the optimisation wasn't properly fixed by modders or so, and till this day i still have problems playing the game

The modding community in A2 was badly optimised but not to a limit its almost unplayable if you experiment, didn't care to archive its mods and so on that people w bad pcs can't even experience something similar to A3, a game they can't afford

#

I just see that A2 that had a pretty popular mod that became a stand-alone game, get forgotten and die out unfairly

ripe rune
opaque marsh
sick mauve
# opaque marsh Expected Yet A3 is still badly optimised than A2, i just dont really get the poi...

A3 still runs on Real Virtuality and therefore it inherits the same performance limits that A2 had (and Arma 1 as well!) but it's nowhere near as badly optimised as you describe it. I can comfortably run 6000 VD/OD and not get any major frame drops/spikes unless you're in a city like Kavala or Georgetown.

This sounds like an issue with whatever modpack you're running that has been poorly made...like having only 1 resolution LOD for its models. Run those kind of mods and you'll definintely run into performance issues.

All "end of life" armas are still alive and there are still communities who play them, except idk, the arma armed assault?

My point is, these games are not dead, there's still people making mods for them, there's still people making missions for it too. Personally calling a game "dead" when there's still such an active presence, is disingenuous, to say the least.

ember bay
#

"end of life" means they are no longer maintained by the developers, not that they are dead, whatever that would mean. However if you are mad that someone calls your favourite game "dead" perhaps it's about time to drop the social media for a while and just enjoy the game?

Hi everyone ! How's it going ? I have a bit of a complex question so I'm hoping there might be a guru or two around. This is for ARMA 2 OA. I'm currently editing Miksuu's WASP Warfare mission (I have his permission we're working together). I've re-integrated AI Commander, AI teams and Dynamic weather. I'm currently running 3x headless clients in addition to the dedicated server. I'd like to delegate AITEAMS to the headless clients as well but I'm kind of at a loss. Server runs on average anywhere between 20-50 FPS I'd like to increase the average to about 30-50 atleast with current settings intact. (this is after about 8hrs)

Line 452+ you have the following statement in the Init_Server.sqf:
[_group] ExecFSM "Server\FSM\aiteam.fsm; <--- this is the line I'm most interested in.

This line needs to be somehow ported into the INIT_HC.sqf, anything that inits in this file becomes headless:

`//--- Headless Client initialization...

//--- Client Functions.
WFBE_CL_FNC_DelegateTownAI = Compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "Client\Functions\Client_DelegateTownAI.sqf";
WFBE_CL_FNC_DelegateAI = Compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "Client\Functions\Client_DelegateAI.sqf";
WFBE_CL_FNC_DelegateAIStaticDefence = Compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "Client\Functions\Client_DelegateAIStaticDefence.sqf";
WFBE_CL_FNC_HandlePVF = Compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "Client\Functions\Client_HandlePVF.sqf";

["INITIALIZATION", "Init_HC.sqf: Running the headless client initialization."] Call WFBE_CO_FNC_LogContent;

//--- We wait for the server full init (just in case!).
sleep 20;

//--- Notify the server that our headless client is here.
["RequestSpecial", ["connected-hc", player]] Call WFBE_CO_FNC_SendToServer;`

Does anybody know how I can port that line into the HC init ?
INIT_HC.SQF: https://pastebin.com/AuSDMRHK
INIT_SERVER.SQF: https://pastebin.com/Reh3ixqK

Thank you very much in advance if you choose to look at this.. This is the final piece of the puzzle before I can release

#

@ripe rune oh hey Miksuu lols didn't know you where here too

#

Because I was basically thinking something like, [_group] = _current-group-name-to-port-init_hc-sqf
remove the [_group] ExecFSM "Server\FSM\aiteam.fsm;
and instead put _aiteamheadless=true
then in the init_hc.sqf to put:
if _aiteamheadless=true then [_current-group-name-to-port-init_hc-sqf] ExecFSM "Server\FSM\aiteam.fsm";

But this sounds so noobish and awful I'm scared to even post it

hmm does this snippet mean that it's not possible to delegate aiteams to headless:

4 Compatibility & considerations
When converting units, triggers, and game logics via A2MC there are some things you need
to consider:
 Units placed using `setPosASL' on or around buildings will not end up in the correct
spot
 Any synchronized or grouped trigger will not transfer to the HC properly.
4
 Units transferred to the HC after mission launch will lose all waypoints.

Point 4 says units transferred to the HC after the mission launch will lose waypoints. So let's pretend slot 3 is AI and they get killed, the new units respawning will be transfered to the HC ? Or 'they're already there' type thing.. I know I'm offbase I'm trying to understand this shit there's like 0 documentation

how can I make myself invincible in Arma 2 (Combined Arms in this case) without having to edit a mission I want to play? I think I tried everything, Loki's Lost Key, using eventhandlers, setdammage 0 loops and allowdamage in multiple dev console mods I have found and no matter what I use I keep dying to enemy fire. Was A2 really that bugged in terms of managing damage scripts?

merry briar
#

Maybe that mission scripts you to die?

#

allowDamage is reliable enough

I don't think it's scripted death in this case unless there is some "lower damage" eventhandler running but still, allowDamage would nullify it anyway?

#

I'm trying those out in Namalsk Crisis campaign

wanted to cheese my way through some missions just to see how do they look

to satisfy your curiosity I was editing a mission where I had used the command this addEventHandler ["HandleDamage", {((_this select 2)/1.2)}]; so I just copied and pasted it and put a 0 because I knew it would work without problems anyway

Maybe you don't see the errors on the screen, but they are added in RPT-file? Or maybe the errors are suppressed in the event handlers. In a normal script, when dividing by 0, an error is given.

Hi all, would anyone here happen to have a repository of the RWO missions by any chance?
I´ve been trying to get my hands on the missions made by CimaleX for for the Guerra do Ultramar mod as part of this project, specifically:

  • I also bumped into a mission called DIH Mocambique 1972 on the bIdentify site (https://bidentify.jerryhopper.com/file/44192667-61f7-44bc-80a4-3c4a1a200f73), again by CimaleX for the GdU mod, but couldn´t trace it via archive.org, so I don´t know any details about it.
    I´d happily take any and all of the other RWO missions as well if you have them available, but the aforementioned ones are my main targets. If anyone could help me out, that´d be great. Cheers.

just fyi: Arma2OA is completely broken when launching from steam on the newest Windows 11 build.

If you get permissions error while launching the game using Windows 11, check your build from pressing the windows key, typing sysinfo and hitting enter. If your build is 10.0.26100, seems that it's just outright broken. Build 10.0.22631 worked on my main desktop that didn't have the update installed.

Solution is to:
Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead or where your steam games are installed and launch ``Arma2OA.exe". Now your game will start normally.
You can create shortcut to your desktop from this executable so you don't need to navigate to the OA files every time to launch the game.

Couldn't post images here but hopefully it will fix issues that you have launching the game. Dwarden has been notified via DMs.

and I thought it was because I fucked something up lol

ripe rune

I think that I heard about this the first time like 2 months ago when someone was on insider build, hopeful that it would be fixed by Battleye over the time. But now from a few of our players since it's slowly getting rolled out on the regular builds by Microsoft. Today I reinstalled "24H2" iso on my laptop to upgrade to win11 and was able to reproduce it on fresh install and found out a quick solution just by trying out things. I think, this patch is also the same that is supposed to boost the x3d (or Ryzen overall?) processors by a huge margin.

ripe rune
#

It seems that this doesn’t activate battleye tho, so you can’t play multiplayer. Hmm, any other solutions? I was thinking of bePath, does this work on clients too?

#

Although Dwarden answered to my message and I think he will most likely roll out a patch soon.

I'm trying to start Arma CWA with the Conspiracies Deluxe mod, but I keep getting this error. I thought it's about the resolution but even if I unplug the ultrawide monitor to have the normal 16:9 one, it shows up anyway. Game on its own starts alright, just with the mod added with -mod parameter it crashes on startup.

any similar experiences and how to fix it?

Maybe you can find a cfg file end manually put in the res?

Hello guys, new here 😄

#

I have a serious problem with setting up my server for arma 2 oa

#

So i would start like this, read the problem carefully so not to mess up things that i say 😂

#

I really need help from someone who is experienced with making dedicated server for arma2 oa

#

The problem is, i insert the mod collection in my arma and the server has to work with that mods, and, whenever i start the server VIA arma 2 multiplayer menu, and make my mission, server starts normally with '' some '' missing files, but really has not problem when my friends join via hamachi

#

But whenever i try to start it from TADS 3.1.0,or the arma2oaserver.exe, i personaly join server 'just me' and it gets to the roles menu, i select the unit and click ok, it tries to get into the mission, but redirects me back to the roles menu and puts up an error in down left corner

#

You cannot play/edit this mission because it is dependable on downloadable content 'file name', the file name is from the mod collection, and everyone who installed the mod says he gets the same error, but the thing is, why i get the error on classic 'new server' in multiplayer menu and game manages to still work as normal, but with dedicated server, it joins server but doesnt accept player in the mission? Who knows how to solve a problem gets a box of beers 😂😂🖤

#

Tried to make variants of missions in takistan, chernarus, it doesnt change anything, tried to put less/more/different units, the problem presists

#

And, so that u dont get confused, i just have that 2 mods installed, no other mods like dayz or something else to get game confused

Hi

#

Sooooo

stoic yacht
#

Anyone playing arma 2?

vital hedge
#

I have a question... why has this never happened to me before... I recently changed ISP, it turns out that I connect to a server, and the server kicks me, in the RPT it tells me: Unable to get my public IP address

So I start testing the connection and it turns out that everything is closed like a doll's ass.

So I talk to the ISP and they sell me a public IP, now with the public IP the exact same thing keeps happening to me...

I've tried everything, I'm with a public IP and everything works, I opened the ports, etc.

Any idea why the message is? THX.

dreamy vigil
#

can you log in to the router?

#

try setting up vpn, but yeah costing money

vital hedge
#

I just paid for a public IP without restrictions, and I have already tried it with other things and it works without problems, it only happens to me with ArmA, despite having opened the ports.

ripe rune
vital hedge
#

yes, i dont use v6

#

the isp doesn't use v6 either

ripe rune
#

That's very odd.... especially if you go in to any IP tracker and it surely shows ipv4.

#

Did you switch router at the same time?

vital hedge
#

It's just very strange, I had never seen that message in so many years of OFP, ArmA, and now with the new ISP I am facing this problem, but I already have a public IP and I opened the ports, everything else works, so it seems strange to me.

ripe rune
#

I guess the only way to is to contact them about it until the issue is fixed. If you have disabled firewall from the router too there should be nothing on your end left anymore.

vital hedge
#

I'm looking at the router, everything seems to be fine, I just need to change the DNS to test, but it should be the same, it's a 100 mega symmetrical fiber optic plan

ripe rune
#

If you have spare router could be worth trying with that.

vital hedge
#

No, unfortunately I don't have another fiber optic router, I only have adsl routers

#

Maybe it's something else that I'm missing, that has to do with the ISP itself, although supposedly now with a public IP this shouldn't happen, and everything else I've tried works

ripe rune
# vital hedge No, unfortunately I don't have another fiber optic router, I only have adsl rout...

the cable goes from the wall straight to the router? For me it's always been an ethernet cable from the wall, even with fiber, you can always plug that cable to the WAN port of the router.
If this is case, it might be worth trying with chaining the routers together. So ethernet cable goes from the fiber router to the adsl router and that goes to your PC with Arma. I had done this before with setting up SQM, and it worked. ofc this might be a different case, but might be worth a try.

vital hedge
#

This being a fiber router only has the fiber optic input, it does not have WAN via UTP, it only has the LAN/UTP outputs, which I could connect one of the ADSL routers to and test as you say.

ripe rune
#

kk, yeah, if that works then it might be the router to blame.

#

also check that NAT is disabled in the fiber router. Although there's always possibility of carrier grade NAT which overrides everything.

vital hedge
#

Another thing that happened to me when testing servers is that the last server I tested didn't give me any messages on the RPT, but on the screen it showed me something like copying was illegal, and it's completely legal.

ripe rune
#

So it's failing to reach the bohemian master server.

vital hedge
#

I don't know if it's allowed to show screenshots here...

ripe rune
#

you can do it with Imgur

vital hedge
ripe rune
#

I think that this issue is definitely that it's failing to reach the master server of BI.

#

cuz why otherwise you would be getting that message

#

could there be hosts.txt fix for this?

vital hedge
#

I don't think so, because the problem is that I connect and it kicks me, hosts is to see the servers, I see it, but when I connect it kicks me out

#

I am reviewing the router configuration again and more thoroughly...

ripe rune
#

kk

#

also flush dns and stuff with cmd

#

if you didn't already

#

after receiving the public IP

#

cuz according to my research public IP should override any carrier grade NAT

vital hedge
#

you right on that, i need flush

#

ok done, lets try...

ripe rune
#

ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /registerdns
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset

#

worth trying them all I guess KEKW

#

and then rebooting everything

vital hedge
#

yes already done that

ripe rune
#

all of them after you received the public ip? kk

vital hedge
#

just dont reboot

#

I'm going to try connecting to your server to see if it tells me anything.

ripe rune
#

Yeah, sure, I'll check the log. Although it usually lags behind a bit so need to wait for a bit

vital hedge
#

ups forgot be

ripe rune
#

yeah it's required here. It's not on most of the DayZ servers? KEKW

vital hedge
#

I don't play Dayz, haha, I think I kicked myself because I saw that something was loading on the server, I don't have it

ripe rune
#

The logs cuts like:
21:44:13 Player GHOST c
can you try once again and maybe it will update?

#

It's very odd, it's lagging behind alot when populated and doesn't show the latest entries either when server is empty

vital hedge
#

I connected to the other server, which I have a lot of ping there, but so far it hasn't kicked me out

ripe rune
#

Perhaps it was was the windows commands then after getting the public IP

vital hedge
#

your other server warfare v48 so far hasn't kicked me

ripe rune
#

If you are talking about Mikser warfare, it doesn't have even verifysignatures on.

#

It's a russian who stole our mission

vital hedge
#

is not your server?

ripe rune
#

so definitely not a reliable test 😂

#

no

vital hedge
#

#

hosted on russian home IP so can't do anything I guess Shrug

#

He stole your mission and gave himself a similar nickname...

#

@vital hedge
Wrong signature for file steamapps\common\Arma 2\addons\missions.pbo

#

so i guess verifying your files will fix rest of the problems

vital hedge
#

let me see...

#

that is the A2 Standalone missions.

ripe rune
#

y, that's the full message but without the full filepath, that was on the log after it updated finally

vital hedge
#

Well, now I'm in, but it doesn't close. What's happening and why the message: Unable to get my public IP address

#

Sorry, what I mean is that I can't figure out why the message is there.

ripe rune
#

It works now tho? Then it was just carrier level NAT.

vital hedge
#

After restoring the files, your server welcomed me and hasn't kicked me out

ripe rune
#

y, seems it just restarted 6 minutes ago but will stay up for 24 hours now.

vital hedge
#

But the message it gave still seems crazy to me if it really was a signature problem or rather corrupt pbo

ripe rune
#

yeah it's really weird on Arma2. You can't see the root cause of the issue yourself. The best way to fix it is just to verify. and if that still doesn't work, you delete all the corepatch files and then verify again (this is randomly happening to some installations)

vital hedge
#

Another thing that worried me is that I also came to think that my game keys had been stolen.

#

which didn't matter anyway because I would buy it all again, but sometimes those things with steam don't work very well

ripe rune
#

I think that was just caused because your internet was not able to connect to the master server of Bohemia, so the verification of the key failed.

#

but glad it's fixed now tho.

#

Still sucks that some ISP's lock you behind their NAT by default.

vital hedge
#

Yes, everything seems to be fine, thanks for your help and your server.

ripe rune
#

np have fun

vital hedge
#

if current IPS seem to have too many restrictions

#

to the point that you have to buy public IPs, etc.

ripe rune
#

cat_yeppers I guess most people (boomers? KEKW ) won't need public IP address to browse the internet, and it will just work fine. and is more secure.

mighty yew
#

If you are only getting one then Apex might be the first choice, you get Tanoa. Depends if you play vanilla 2035 ofc, but all the actual new functionality in Jets and Tanks is in the base game by default so if you don't want the new jets and tanks in those DLCs then Apex is definitely the way to go. Personal note: Tanoa is an excellent map!

spice pier
#

i dont want to go too expensive

#

argentine economy is kinda in shambles so i cant really spend too much

#

but the price of those three combined are good enough

mighty yew
#

Fair. All DLC functionality stuff is in base ARMA so if you are looking at things would just recommend those that come with maps (Apex and Contact). If you like other stuff then I would put the SOG:PF cDLC before Jets or Tanks then

Don't try to run CWA on max view distance. It doesn't matter if your PC can handle it. CWA's engine is 23 years old at this point and it isn't capable of rendering that much at once.
The engine already struggles with High terrain detail and 1,500 m VD. I'd suggest sticking to 1,400 or less and only Normal terrain detail.

#

You can't edit your settings in-game without the game freezing now since you're stuck with the current settings. However, you can still change it manually in your game directory.
Find the folder where you installed CWA and go into Users -> (your profile name) -> UserInfo.cfg. Scroll all the way down until you see the parameters for viewDistance and terrainGrid.

  • For viewDistance, change that to something like 1000 (but no more than 1400).
  • For terrainGrid, change that to 6.250000.

Has anyone figured out how to get the (Steam) ARMA2 OA Internet Servers to list in Win11 24H2? Or a way to DL ARMA2 OA (non-Steam) as it appears there is a fix for that version?
