I deleted the folder, hit play, and it something like: "Install script - Microsoft DirectX," but it's been stuck forever. Previous attempts were way quicker. So, I decided to verify the game files, but now it's stuck like this, and I can't cancel it:

Should I just shut down Steam and restore from my backup?

but maybe that got already fixed

its just creating prefix with Nvidia and proton 8, try switching to proton 7 when creating new prefix or kill dxsetup.exe proccess when its stuck

#

Oh I already shut down Steam because I needed to go to sleep

teal depot
#

Okay, I switched to Proton 8 and launched verifying integrity of game files

teal depot
#

It verified game files and now I can't even get the launcher working, lmao.

#

Personally I use the ArmA 3 Unix Launcher, which replaces the default launcher well

teal depot
#

I tried -nolauncher option too. and arma3 unix launcher. you can see my original post there: #linux_mac_branch message

I already uninstalled the game. Guess it's no luck for me on current system, will try on Debian 12 later

I use the unix launcher myself, had to go with the appimage version though, aur did not work for me

# astral nebula I think we are selling the macbook and buying windows. There is no news or date ...

Updates not being backwards compatible on public servers and having no warning of breakage is a huge downturn for us mac players.

Most of the new update was probably done and could have been prescreened minimising the update gap.

I am super grateful for the effort but it just becomes such a turnoff as it cannot be relied on to break randomly before a weekend and the rest of the playerbase immediately upgrade.

#

A public alpha with breakage would be preferable as we could help out reporting and validating issues

Is there a clear and understandable explanation that will satisfy Mac players?

wise canyon
#

Mac can play 2.12 in SP and MP with other Mac players. Once 2.14 ships to Mac then everyone can play together.

#

#

also note that mods such as ACRE, TFAR and parts of ACE do not work on Mac due to lack of native (dll) extension support

as a modder that's a hard no from me, that would be horrible. imagine every mission maker having to deal with potentially every sqf call being incompatible with different clients.

#

that would also lessen the changes of major improvements in newer versions that cannot be made compatible between different versions of the game

#

I also use macOS for most of my development, including Arma

proven kelp
#

Do you have a suggestion on how we could improve the situation?

gritty sage
#

Its not just SQF commands (though already handling that would not be feasible) there are tons of underlying changes that makes different versions incompatible.
You wouldn't even be able to connect to the server (which is why.. you currently already can't do that). If it would be easy to make the game backwards compatible, we would've done that

I opened a detailed bug/feature report explaining why it makes a lot of sense to support it even on the Mac client, and how there's NO technical reason to not support it. At least it can give modders the option to support macOS if they're so inclined. I actually recompiled ACE advanced ballistics as a dylib, and with such a feature enabled, it would work on macOS too!!
https://feedback.bistudio.com/T174957
If you guys feel inclined, comment in the tracker too and let's ask the devs to support it; there's literally no reason to not do it, since other Steam apps like X-Plane allow this feature.

wise canyon
#

i.e. you can have a notarized app that is still quarantined

quasi orchid
#

And it works on arm64, been doing that already

#

Is it a bit more work? Yes. But at least we CAN have external libraries...

wise canyon
#

no, that's two different things that will both block you. it cannot be quarantined and it has to be signed, self signed is an option

quasi orchid
#

Oh okay; makes sense. Well, developers could STILL self-sign it, right?

#

So it's notarized by the modder (the final user will have to allow the self-signature), and then it's unquarantined with the Terminal command

#

I assume whatever public certificate is needed to validate the self-signature could be included in the mod

#

It's a headache... but better than nothing I guess?

#

@wise canyon If you think it could work and it's worth it, could you comment on the tracker, since you're more knowledgable than me about it? Maybe that'd make the devs think about it...

wise canyon
#

no, you cannot self sign it as a dev and then send it to someone else, that will not be a valid signing. this is what the notarization provides

quasi orchid
#

Okay, I see. Not even if a certificate validating such signature is passed together? It's sketchy, but it could potentially work

#

Or heck, a modder could theoretically pay Apple the $99 yearly subscription to have a valid signature...

wise canyon
#

that or some benevolent person could help mods with signing

quasi orchid
#

I mean, if it's a community effort, I'm sure we could find 10 mac users that would pay the $9.90 per year to make it happen.

quasi orchid
#

Anyway, since it IS technically feasible (even if expensive), if you'd like to comment on the tracker, maybe that could be one more input for the devs to implement the callExtension support on macOS too!

Hey everyone, I’m on Mac. For some reason, when I launch Arma 3, it’ll say it’s open but nothing appears on the screen. It’s not even black, and when I click show all windows, it says none available. I’ve yninstaallled every mod, reinstalled the game, restarted, etc.

👋

We have a fix for the "camera stuck floating somewhere" issue that is currently present when running Arma stable branch (non-profiling branch) inside Proton.
There is a possible fix but I don't have the setup to test it, can someone test this on stable branch and confirm if that fixes the server joining issue?

Please download https://www.battleye.com/downloads/arma3/BEClient_x64.so, locate your "Proton BattlEye Runtime" app directory in your Steam folders (it's the following app, it should be downloaded/installed on your client to add BE Proton support: https://steamdb.info/app/1161040/) and find and replace the BEClient_x64.so in there (I suggest creating a backup of the current version first), then launch and test the game with it. Of course be sure to run the x64 version of the game.

Does anyone have a solution for mine yet?

Whenever I start Arma on mac, it says running and the app opens but nothing appears on screen (not even black, it’s just invisible). I’ve tried just about everything (uninstalling, removing mods, deleting steam, etc.) but it doesn’t work. It’s not a requirements issue because it worked before with multiple mods.

Regarding update download issues, we have some info from the port engineers that this may help: Settings->Privacy & Security->App Management and allow Steam permission to modify executables. Then restart Steam client and let it update. They are not sure why it may be needed, since all the game bundles are notarized with Apple servers.

I had the same issue. Download was basically complete but it was stuck on 100% and didnt finish. Steam said Disk Write Error. What solved it, was to uninstall and newly install the game with the branch set. @stone leaf

Hello, I just acquired the game and installed the mac version from steam, but it doesn't launch along an error message :

"No entry .CfgWorlds"
Tried to check forums and thread but haven't found a solution. Any help will be appreciated

gritty sage
#

Verify your game files again.
Somehow the game didn't find some core files

hot radish
#

Is there a folder path I can check manually for this file ?

#

Integrity check passed : all files have been validated

gritty sage
#

I assume its dta/bin.pbo next the the game binary

hot radish
#

I have this file

#

is CfgWorlds supposed to be an actual file or a something from inside of dta/bin.pbo ?

#

found the issue : the folder after install is called Dta while it should be dta, renaming it launches the game, but an other problem arises

gritty sage
#

Its something inside the pbo

#

What other problem?
Probably more stuff with things not being lowercase..
Lowercase naming is a problem on Linux, but I haven't heard of mac users having issues with it yet

hot radish
gritty sage
#

hmpf.
Maybe your Addons folder should be addons ?
The one in main game folder?

Might also be from a DLC, don't know what adds that entry

hot radish
hot radish

#

Might have to delete and re download the game 🤔

hot radish
gritty sage
#

Make all Addons folder into addons
There are DLC folders in the game directory, which inside them have addons folder
Fix all of them too

#

I think that should be enough to get going.
You might also have to do that addon folder fixing for mods, and you'll have to convert all mod .PBO files also to lowercase

Heli/Addons

hot radish
#

I even tried to add symbolic links addons -> Addons in each folders, in case some part of the code uses the uppercase version.

#

That's really stange, this error about the Heli happens only when the main Addons is renamed to addons. All the other in subfolders are renamed, and the previous error in the game ui about Targeting.MarkedTargetNoLosRemote remains

gritty sage
hot radish
wise canyon
#

correct

hot radish
#

That makes me think I could probably create a new case insensitive partition, without losing the current one

wise canyon
#

what's the fs type?

hot radish
#

APFS

wise canyon
#

if you have enough free space on the drive you can shrink the current partition, make a new case insensitive beside it and then move files over before deleting the first one

hot radish
#

I'll try that and let you know

wise canyon
#

or move the data to another drive before repartitioning

hot radish
#

Actually, apfs has a nice feature : you can add a new "volume" (like a secondary layer partition) with a different format option (like case sensitivity) and they share the same free space.

hot radish

And it works ✌️

Hello everyone,
I have already got the modpack from Panthor.de working in the macOS version. Also the included TFAR in version 1.-1.0.318 could be loaded by the ARMA3 client. However, I could not test if a connection to the TS3 server would have been possible, because the TS3 plugin is limited to x64 and x32.

Other included mods such as ACE3 also run without issue and are recognized in-game so they can be used in-game.

Greeny the admin and developer of Panthor.de says that he is surprised that I got the modpack running, because actually e.g. ACE3 needs extensions that would not work in the MacOS port.

Now my question is it possible to port TFAR for MacOS?

Thanks a lot 🙂

This was just answered above your message from one of the developer of TFAR

wise canyon
#

same applies to ace extensions as well, they do not work on macOS

nova condor
# worthy grail This was just answered above your message from one of the developer of TFAR

I know that above my message was already asked a similar question. In the question it was asked if there is a version of TFAR which runs on macOS. This was denied in the answer of the developer @gritty sage , that there is currently no version that runs on macOS and my question was about whether it would not be possible to port TFAR or the required .dll so that there is finally a runnable version.

worthy grail
nova condor
nova condor
wise canyon
#

native extensions use .dll for windows or .so for linux yes

wise canyon
worthy grail
#

and TFAR need it to create interprocess communication between Arma and TS

nova condor
#

if it is the apparently only on the .dll can not be ported to macOS? Attention I do not mean Linux apparently there are differences here again?

wise canyon
#

server doesn't need them, hence linux server doesn't care

#

the native linux client is no more, only proton. and proton "emulates" windows, so dlls for the "linux" client

nova condor
#

OK, it seems like we might be misunderstanding each other at the moment. I'm running ARMA3 on my Mac PRO(M2) right now. To avoid the need for an emulator to load the .dlls, my question is whether it would be possible to port them specifically to MacOS for the M1/M2.

latest info seems to be no

Hi I have an M1 Max 16 inch MacBook Pro with 32 gpu cores. I am also running Mac OS senoma. I currently have 2 issues with the Arma 3 port for Mac, both the apple silicon version, as well as the Rosetta version.

My first problem is that I cannot increase the in game resolution more than 1080p. This is common in both the apple silicon version as well as the Rosetta version.

The second issue is more significant. I believe that the gpu is being heavily under-utilised and is hurting the performance significantly. For example, when running Arma 3, the entire Soc peaks at 10w of power, whereas for all other games I have tested the gpu alone averages at around 40w. I believe there must be some sort of bug preventing the soc from being fully used. Anyone have any solutions?

soft venture
#

The second issue is also common on Windows, since Arma 3 is very CPU dependent. What is the performance like?

hushed fern
#

just dont know why I cant increase the resolution

#

the maximum resolution I have is 1728x1080

#

which honestly looks pretty bad on a 16 inch screen with a high native resolution

soft venture
#

90fps is not bad for Arma 3 at all, try it with higher settings. Arma 3 runs at 30fps on average for most. I'm not sure about the resolution things though, I haven't tried playing on Mac myself.

90 fps is great for arma 3, that's what I get on my somewhat decent windows desktop machine

Greetings, I would like to ask for your help.
I recently purchased and am playing Arma 3 without mods on my macbook pro. But during the game itself, it breaks and turns off periodically with different intervals. And it doesn't just break, it causes some critical error that causes my macbook to reboot.
The situation is like this, I can play the game calmly and without any warnings my macbook reboots, after turning on it displays a system crash report.
I would also like to add that in all other games that I ran on my laptop, such a problem did not occur.
This happens both on the test for apple silicon and on the usual through rossetta environment.
My laptop has an m1-pro processor and 16 GB of RAM, and macOS Sonoma 14.1

The report file I get when the game crashes says "PC register does not match crashing frame (0x0 vs 0x7FFA2A6E8E47)". what does that mean and how do I fix it? (I have the full report but I don't know whether there's info on there that I shouldn't put online like IP address and such)

👋 Hello Proton users.
Any of you had issues that the Arma Launcher showed all mods as corrupted, and while it created the !Workshop folder, it failed to create symlinks inside the folder? So the !Workshop folder just stayed empty?
We keep having issues with these symlinks, so we'll just disable the !Workshop folder outright. The Launcher will still be able to load mods directly from where Steam downloads them.

Found out today that the !Workshop folder is optional on windows too.

Hi, has anyone else using Proton had issues with the launcher not persisting settings. I'm running Arma 3 through Proton Experimental on the Steam Deck (no mods or workshop items). This probably doesn't belong here since afaik Proton is using the Windows version, not the native branch, but I was directed here from #arma3_launcher

Dedmen said he will be working on a fix on Monday, I don't think he'll need a ticket for it.

#

Generally if you are running profiling branch it is best to report in #perf_prof_branch, as it is a more experimental branch and tickets may not get seen as quickly.

fiery prairie
#

I'd like to run off of non profiling branch, but I don't think I can run the non profiling version of Arma without being forced into the Linux port

soft venture
#

There is no linux port anymore. Stable and Perf/Prof both use proton.

fiery prairie
#

That's great news, I'll downgrade for now. On a side note, would there be any major advantage to stay on profiling branch over the regular branch?

soft venture
#

Currently we are upgrading the compiler to the latest so there might be some performance improvements from that. But overall the branch isn't as much about improving performance as it used to be. The main advantage is being on the bleeding edge, but at a higher risk of builds having bugs and crashes.

worthy plover
#

on the other hand if stable has a bug, prof/perf usually has it fixed and it's months before stable branch gets a newer number.

fiery prairie
#

That's honestly a tradeoff I'm willing to take with this laptop lol. At least until it gets fixed that is

soft venture
#

Stable is in general always going to be more stable. If there is something game breaking like this saving crash we will either catch it before release, or we will work on a hotfix to be released ASAP. Perf/Prof branch isn't tested before release, unlike Dev and Stable.

worthy plover
#

you might have to manually set the ram limit in launcher parameters because iirc stable limits itself to 8GB or something, perf/prof has no such issue

fiery prairie
worthy plover
#

I'm on the default windows memalloc, dunno what should Linux use. Whatever fits your system I guess, I had to try every one of them to see which actually gives me a performance benefit

soft venture
#

The entire logic behind the memory limit is kinda a mess.~~ In general you shouldn't need to set the memory value unless you want to limit it to something less than 8GB~~. Stable currently limits it to 8GB, setting anything higher than that will not matter. Prof raised the limit to 16GB: #perf_prof_branch message
Okay, now I re-read that entire discussion.
Stable:
Default limit: 4GB
Maxmem limit: 8GB
Prof:
Default Limit: 16GB

The problem is the following. I have MAC OS (Arma 3). I play on a server that has voice chat. It works great, but at random times, the game may freeze when I speak and can only be turned off by force. This is annoying, because when you go into the game you start all over again on the server. By the way, the problem is not in my microphone and my laptop, since my friend on macOS has exactly the same problem. I want to ask us, do you know a way out? How to avoid game crashing?

Dear developers (@wooden zinc and others),
I am reaching out to you with a request to address a longstanding issue that still persists in the latest versions of the game for macOS. Despite the fact that this bug has been around for some time, I have noticed that you are currently working on an update, and I hope that this bug will also be addressed as part of the fix process. The problem arises when a player ends a voice chat by releasing the Caps Lock key, causing the game to crash. This incident results in lost progress and inconvenience for all participants. It is important to note that this issue is not unique to me but also affects my friends who use the same hardware setup and encounter the same error. Please take this into account as you work on the fix. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I hope for a swift resolution.

# gritty sage Please provide eon.txt files, they might contain information about the crash See...

**EON.txt: **(https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bQU44YvplUHr_fhhULrQar0IiMzJrqEc/view?usp=sharing)

Participants can safely communicate via voice on the server. However, there is about a 30% chance that the game will stop responding when the Caps Lock key is released. This issue is observed among all my acquaintances using MacOS. We have tried various methods to resolve the problem, including changing the microphone, adjusting its settings, switching keys for voice chat, and playing in windowed mode, but none of these have yielded results. The problem occurs when launching games on MacBook M1/M2/M2 Pro devices. After the failure occurs, the only way to end the game is to force close it. We strongly request that this error be fixed. I am attaching a video demonstrating the process, as well as the eon.txt file you requested.

from the chat gbt gods...

"Using a .dll file (Dynamic Link Library) on macOS isn't straightforward because .dll files are specifically designed for Windows operating systems. However, you might be able to achieve similar functionality by using a compatibility layer or emulator like Wine or CrossOver, which allows you to run some Windows applications on macOS.

Another option is to find a macOS equivalent or alternative to the functionality provided by the .dll file. macOS uses different libraries and frameworks compared to Windows, so you may need to find a library or solution that is compatible with macOS.

If you have access to the source code of the software that uses the .dll file, you could potentially recompile it for macOS using a development environment like Xcode.

In summary, while it's not directly possible to use a .dll file on macOS, there are alternative methods and solutions you can explore depending on your specific requirements and circumstances."

Hi everyone,I recently re installed Arma 3 and I need help, whenever I try to start the game it says no entry Cfg worlds and I don't know what that mean,I try analyzing the file with steam,and do another install but nothing,what can I do to solve the Problem?

celest laurel
#

Tell the entire error message and when it happens. Exact symptoms too

latent current
#

I tried,but the thing is it stop at that "no entry Cfg worlds" and then dont even start the application,my problem is when I'm opening the game

celest laurel
#

Let me rephrase. Tell the error message. Word to word, character to character

latent current
#

It's that,it doesn't tell me other except that damn "No entry CFG world" I wanted to send a photo but I guess the server dont allow

I'm sorry if my description it's of little help but I'm new to PC gaming

Steam file verification process:
Right Click on game -> Properties -> Installed Files -> Verify Integrity of game files
Arma 3
Steam Workshop Mod repair process:
Open Launcher -> Right Click on mod -> Repair
The first process will automatically verify Steam Workshop items as well.

I removed all the Workshop items too

There is no in-game selection for units.

the server needs to be running the compatible legacy version or try updating to the release candidate version which puts it on the current version. for battleye enabled servers you need to use the slower intel version through rosetta 2.
at that point it's much better if you can get linux or windows going on there.
mod management is manual through symbolic links (not alias!) and enabled through expansions or -mod= parameter

I don't understand guys, are you crazy? Why is this thread needed at all if you still can’t use voice communication on a Mac? 3 months have passed. Why then is there such a price for the armor and its DLC? What if I get a log without a launcher and the ability to just chat with people? Do you understand that the price is simply huge for 2013 for a game? If you don't fix any bugs at all, give the game $1 on Steam and sell it at that price.

I'm arrogant because the game isn't released on Mac but it sells for the same price as the Windows game. Moreover, the work is not carried out with specific priorities, but is not carried out at all. If you look at the chat history, not a single error has been corrected yet. If it is transferred to a third party for development, this does not mean that your creation needs to be turned into a non-working stump. I would be very ashamed to see my work so crooked. It would be nice if this could be fixed, but it's so frozen in the swamp that it hasn't been able to handle it since it came out

This is the same as saying, change the city to live in abundance. If this bunch of bugs and errors were written on Steam, I would not have bought it, but it exists and is not supported.

Then why do you respond to my messages with such denial, if you yourself understand that the work is being carried out very slowly? Why are you hinting to buy me a normal PC instead of my MacBook?

Troubleshooting tried:
Updated the Operating System.

Installed a previous Kernel.
Creating VMs which ended up bugging out.
Tried to find the Acre2 directory to copy over its 2 .dlls that it would normally place themselves in TS3s Addons folder when the game launched automatically.
Tried to install the Windows version of TS3 which failed with an NSIS Error through WineHQ.

Play Arma on Linux

Preamble A few months and improvements to Proton after its first release, i had the first known, good working Arma installation on Linux.

I didn't say it didn't work Sgt.

As a matter of fact, the game runs perfectly despite not having a Launcher on Linux.

rare pebble
#

Ok, lemme change the install real quick.

clever verge
#

dull spruce
wintry gale
#

Anyone know how to launch a Proton'd arma directly from the command line including options? I know about the steam rungameid approach, but all the flags (like -nosplash) I provide are ignored, both if I use steam steam://run/107410/nosplash/steam steam://run/107410/-nosplash (which some webpages suggest would work) or steam steam://run/107410/ -nosplash. The reason is that I want to autogenerate the modlist to use. The other recommendations (like muttley's launcher) don't work for me, since it won't compile on Debian testing

#

The base game (launcher and full game) work fine, so the install is ok

gritty sage
#

You could just run a batch script, from inside proton. If that makes it easier

#

Does that steam run command work on windows?

wintry gale
#

I can't currently test (windows machine is broken), but I think so. Whether that honors the flags, no clue

#

How does one get a file into the Proton environment?

sterile pumice
wintry gale
#

Yes, but see above, it doesn't compile on Debian testing for some reason (I suspect Testing doesn't ship the correct old version of Qt5)

wintry gale
#

Also, why am I "steamuser" instead of my actual user? can that be fixed?

wintry gale
#

Ah, just make a new profile

clever verge
#

@wintry gale uh, you cant really specify launch options in steam urls, also have you tried steam://applaunch/<appid>? additionally, set up the launch arguments in the steam client then attempt to run it via the url

wintry gale
#

Haven't tried applaunch yet. The steam client approach would work but is very unwieldy since I have several different modpacks I want to switch between

wintry gale
#

Looks like applaunch does nothing at all (besides starting steam if it isn't already running)

clever verge
clever verge
wintry gale
#

will try it after lunch. should I use steam://launch/107410/-nosplash or team://launch/107410/nosplash ?

tawdry trellis
wintry gale
#

ack, will report back in a jiffy

#

steam steam://launch/107410// -window -nosplash -noLauncher still just gives me the launcher (capitalization makes no diff)

#

Same for steam://launch/107410/-nolauncher/ and steam://launch/107410/nolauncher/

tawdry trellis
#

steam "steam://launch/107410// -window -nosplash -noLauncher"?

wintry gale
#

In summary, none of these skip the launcher:

~ $ steam steam://launch/107410// -window -nosplash -noLauncher
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410// -window -nosplash -nolauncher
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410/-nolauncher/
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410/nolauncher/
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410/nolauncher/
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410//nolauncher/
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410//-nolauncher/
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410//-noLauncher/
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410//noLauncher/
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410//noLauncher
~ $ steam steam://launch/107410//nolauncher
#

artemoz, same for the quoted variant

#

Guess I'll have to build Qt5 myself and link Muttley's tool against that.

#

And this is clearly not working for A3:

steam://run/<id>//<args>/
    Runs an application. It will be installed if necessary.
    The //<args> is optional, args are passed to the application as launch parameters.
``` (from https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_browser_protocol)
#

steam steam://run/107410//-nolauncher/ works!

#

so launch is not a complete standin for run

tawdry trellis
#

apparently -- is also a thing, so maybe steam -- "steam://run/107410// -window -nosplash -nolauncher" for multiple arguments 😓

wintry gale
#

However, I get an error about x\cba\addons\main\script_macros_common.hpp missing, despite not specifying a single mod?

tawdry trellis
#

fun stuff

wintry gale
#

(no mods activated in the launcher, either)

#

I think it may by default activate something from the workshop folder, steam "steam://run/107410//-nolauncher -Mod=ws/" launched fine

#

(I do own the Western Sahara CDLC)

wise canyon
#

It will auto launch any mods selected in game if there are no mods arguments

wintry gale
#

Even if they're not selected in the launcher?

#

While I see mods in the launcher, none of them are ticked

wise canyon
#

this is driven by the "expansions" dialog in game, it stores a list of mods to use on next launch if no mods arguments are set

#

its a feature since arma 1 iirc

wintry gale
#

ah, I see, so it remembers what I had loaded if there's no -mod param

wise canyon
#

What you selected in game yes

clever verge
#

@wintry gale it stores the last -mod= list in arma3.cfg, you want to override that by launching with just a empty -mod=
its what the launcher does when you tell it to play without any mods loaded

clever verge
clever verge
#

which, fun fact: this is the same logic as with -name=
if not specified it launches with the last selected profile when the game exited

#

(the game stores the modlist on the arma3.cfg when you successfully exit too, i believe)

#

does that make sense?

wintry gale
#

yep, thanks!

You have to dig quite a bit into the official website to find information where they warn you about certain things, like not having a launcher and similar stuff. But when it comes to having to wait two or three weeks to be able to play on most servers again, they don’t warn you about that. This is the third time it’s happened to me.

on the page: "Restricted update cycle - the port has been updated to version 2.16, and we strive to keep it up-to-date, but we cannot make any guarantees."

yall mac users could you know... be a bit smarter and play with each other instead of on your favorite servers and make your own mac only communities that are behind a version because the porting takes too long to come out.
the dedicated server is actually included with the build, i believe. i havent checked however.
but basically it should be possible to host either from mac or from linux or from windows with the legacy branch. bohemia interactive acknowledges the delays and provides avenues to connect the players on different platforms

We know that breaking multiplayer compatibility for Mac users is no fun. Arma 3 was developed and released as Windows application originally. Doing the Mac client ports is still considered experimental. We do really like seeing players on Mac being able to play Arma 3, and we try to make the port process go as swiftly as reasonable. The update to 2.18 is in progress with our external partners. Please still bear in mind the limitations as noted on https://dev.arma3.com/ports 🙇‍♂️

I'm not sure where to start
Server: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS x86_64, stable Linux version
Client: Arch, Proton Experimental
Proton BattlEye Runtime installed thru Steam
Using Arma 3 Unix Launcher

Receiving this on connection:

Both server and client keys are in their respective directories and are identical:
3den_stringtable_viewer.bikey

Tried lowercasing clientside just to make sure, no effect
Is there something obvious I should've done and missed?..

gritty sage

Maybe the bisign is just wrong?

#

Both server and client keys
What are client keys? and what is their directory?

There are no bikey's on clients

mossy surge

I'll try redownloading the client mod, seems to be purely bikey issue

As server mod gets downloaded fresh by steamcmd

gritty sage

If it were a bikey issue, then it would be a server side issue. Because there are no bikey on client..

clients only have bisign, not key

I see but the bikey on server is present
/home/$USER/games/arma3/mods/2073243184/keys/3den_stringtable_viewer.bikey

bikey should be in servers keys directory

not in the modfolder

So I assume

there

Yeah, its a source dir, it get copied to root keys

Anyways thank you 🙏 once again for porting this to Mac, already got 300 hours lmao

do I understand correctly that a new CDLC will be released soon, which will be ported to the mac for another 1-2 months and as a result we continue not to play on arma servers until at least the new year?

CDLCs are not ported to mac, they are only data.
You can also download their compatibility data from workshop, and just load them on mac
