Hi I keep having issues with the battle eye service ? I disable mods , and it always says it won't initialize. I'm a new player, it's been a week and I haven't been able to play online , any suggestions ? I'm new to comp gaming fyi

pine kite

You may need Administrator elevation of permissions ( to run Arma 3 as administrator) for it to properly install the battleye service. Just run it once, don't play multiplayer while the game is run as administrator.

how do i fix this? Its been like that everytime i try to update it and everytime i do it stays on this

#

is there any way to fix this?

#

check if you have huge amount of mods that need updating

#

and if you dont need the mods, unsubscribe

#

then verify game files in steam library

#

!steamverify

rustic eagleBOT
#

Steam file verification process:
Right Click on game -> Local 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.

Yeah, don't recognise this either. Where did you make that screenshot from? Arma game client? Steam? Arma 3 Launcher? Powershell terminal window?

What problem is this?

pearl sorrel

Well error is in NR6 guessing thats the NR6 HAL mod.

Well, this is how I set up everything

Yehh. Better asking for support at that mods' discord (if they have one)

pine kite
# brave imp What problem is this?

More specifically, code tries to divide by zero some how. Causes a result that would be infinity so impossible for code to represent. The shown code is clipped so no clue how exactly. But it shows the line number of the file. So if it is your code, investigate that. If it is not your code/mod, report it to the mod/code writer. And get rid of said mod from your game/server to never have it again and continue with your mission.

trying to access higher than array boundary results in "Zero divisor" as well, iirc

Fox? 🦊

#

ok, large page support, yae or nae?

#

Right, so battle eye has been blocking ace .dll files for some reason

Stuff i've tried so far:
Reinstalling arma & ace [DOESNT WORK]
Uninstalling battle eye -> restarting my pc -> installing battle eye -> restarting my pc [DOESN'T WORK]
Verifying the integrity of my files [DOESNT WORK]
Restarting steam multiple times [DOESNT WORK]

Any solutions?

#

only reason im asking here is because it seems like its a issue on my end

golden nova
#

you reinstalled ace, but did you try deleting these dlls and repairing mod through launcher?

#

Yeah it is possible to fail verify/repair. You can remove em and retry

I will try that

Arma RPT

Arma generates a .rpt log file each time it's run, which contains a lot of information like the loaded mods, or any errors that appear, this log file can be very useful for troubleshooting problems.

To get to your RPT files press Windows+R and enter %localappdata%/Arma 3

Additionally see the wiki page for more info: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Crash_Files

To share an rpt log here, please use a website like https://sqfbin.com/ to upload the full log, that way the people helping you can take a look at it and try to figure out the problem you're having together with you.

Having in issue where the insignias show up on the character in editor mode, but it doesn't show up in gameplay mode

#

Any idea how to fix it? I would like them to show up on the character in the game

#

this is probably some modded unit? it could be it or some other mod interrupts the behavior. Does other insignias work?

It's the uh

disable 3CB unit loadout and unit randomisation

# teal lark still don't show in game

what does this return when you run it in debug console?

private _insigniaClass = [player] call BIS_fnc_getUnitInsignia;

#

it'll give you a systemchat message which will tell you if the insignia is being overwritten or if its an issue with the uniform

teal lark
#

Mk give me a minute

#

Nothing pops up

#

Now my screen-view in eden is frozen when I move around it doesn't move just sits there in same view

#

gahhh I feel like I'm having tons of issues all at the same time

ocean cosmos
#

Certainly sounds like it -- are you sure you're playing as the unit which has the randomisation etc disabled?

teal lark
#

Aye

ocean cosmos
#

How many mods are you running? Just 3cb?

teal lark
#

Do I paste it in this

ocean cosmos
#

yup

#

then hit local exec

#

And then continue

teal lark
#

I got dozens of mods running from ACE to, 3CD to RHSUSAF and some other RHS stuff, including Bloodlust, Dongro's Air Operations, etc

ocean cosmos
#

And make sure you're playing as the unit too ^^

#

But if nothing appears that just means it's being overwritten by something

teal lark
#

Yeah nothing appears

ocean cosmos
#

Means something's overwriting it with nothing then, you tried with just 3CB?

teal lark
#

I'll exit the game and move some mods from running in inactive

ocean cosmos
#

launch with just 3cb and dependencies and try on a vr map with just that unit

teal lark
#

mk

#

It appears

#

definitely something is interfering with it, I might know what it is

#

So I removed anything that has to do with equipment and some maps and I kept all the other mods running

#

It could be the Hendrix US Army Vest, the USP Gear and Uniforms AIO

#

its all fixed

#

Now I just need to figure out why the eden camera freezes after leaving the gameplay

ocean cosmos
#

if it freezes for a second or two then thats normal but anything longer isnt

Also F12 is always your friend to take a shot

#

I'm suspecting that there is a "modpack" in your Mods list that has an outdated CBA

mild lynx
#

Is there a way to make it not outdated

ocean cosmos
#

unload it

steady hawk
#

I don't know. If it is a modpack, unload it

mild lynx
steady hawk
#

Unload. Do you know what modpack is?

mild lynx
#

Probably TFB core mods

#

I don't know

steady hawk
#

You don't know what modpack is? Or what it causes?

ocean cosmos
#

Unload half, if it works then the other half is broken, load half of that half so on and so forth

#

Or just search through your !Workshop folder for CBA pbos

teal lark
#

Does anyone know what mod I need to get for this or if I am missing a mod

pine kite
# mild lynx I don't know

Modpacks are a single mod someone made with many other mods thrown together in one, often in with the ruse 'to make it easier for people to download/apply them'. Or try to hide that one or more of them are used illegally. Reuploading mods from creators that didn't approve of it is illegal anyway. So avoid them.

It also makes you dependant on the reuploader to keep those mods updated more frequently. As each one can update at any one random date, and the mod pack goes out of date quicker the more mods it contains.

Hi everyone. I'm having a problem with Arma 3. After been playin for a while, every time i close the game, it returns to the desktop, and after around 15s, it freezes my PC and I have to reboot it, and some times it turns my game profile to default, having to assign all the keybinds and graphic settings and all that again. It happens with and without mods.

You can move a tad faster when holding a binocular instead of a rifle. So I guess the same with a small hand pistol. Seems like a feature rather than a bug.

Then you no doubt have a mod interfering with it. Strafing, or walking up a steep hill under an angle helps to move forwards a bit more fluidly. But you also make a longer path, negating the speed. I don't know what else could cause it.

Receiving this when joining servers using 'Zeus Enhanced' - 'Zeus Enhanced ace3 Compatibility' mods.

It doesn't seem to affect actually joining the server or playing. But I have yet to play a public server that uses the ace interaction menu, so I wonder If I am missing something.

It seems that I need to load ace, but the servers in question don't allow it to be loaded. Is this because the server is using their own version of ace etc? (New player)

uncut trellis
#

try joining the server via launcher server browser so it can tell you what mods you need

wary latch
#

I did, It says I need ace loaded as a dependency. When trying to join with ace loaded, the sever has it listed as an unaccepted mod.

uncut trellis
#

perhaps they then run some old version

ocean cosmos
#

quite possibly a version of ace with no medical

wary latch
#

I was thinking that

#

I haven't found any servers that run the ace interaction menu. So I didn't know if I was missing out or if its just diasabled.

uncut trellis
#

its just part of ACE

wary latch
#

Thats what I mean. I haven't got to use the interaction menu in a MP server just SP. I assume most servers reserve its use for private OPs just for convenience to the public.

uncut trellis
#

eh?

#

ace interaction is default ACE feature

wary latch
#

I'm at a loss then.

#

I'll ask the server specifically. They'll understand their mods better than I.

uncut trellis
#

that is really the best way

Broken mission file: Help!

Recently KAT medical updated, and since it has caused an error in the mission file on our dedicated server.
“Dependent on DLC that is missing Kat_misc”

I have unloaded KAT medical mod, opened the mission within Eden editor, and used 3den to force load the mission without KAT, therefore removing any trace of KAT items on the map or in arsenals. After which it loads to the server box fine and runs. However the second I add any KAT items to the ace arsenal, it gives me that message again and causes the mission to fail to initialize.

I have made sure the server mods are updated to reflect the KAT update, as well as my own when editing the mission file.

I am trying to figure out what might be causing this to happen. When the mission without KAT is loaded to the server, and in Zeus, you can place down an arsenal with all KAT items and it runs fine. But not when they are in arsenals when the mission is uploaded. Please help!

On dedicated servers those RPT files are somewhere in the server Arma 3 root folder structure. And if on linux, they might not exist at all as the messages are pushed to stdout/stderr and not saved to file.

#

And if the server is started with the -nologs commandline parameter the the RPT file is also not created. So you'll never know the reason.

Something caused your GPU driver or something for it to crash or DirectX can't use it anymore. Reinstall drivers for it might help.

I still have the issues but since I changed it from 64 bits to 32 bits, it doesn't crash anymore. Now it starts randomly going to 2 frames per minute, but I can still save the game and restart

pine kite
#

32 bits can only handle so much mods because of memory limits. That might also explain the 2 frames per minute if the memory dries up.

I was playing vanilla arma with no mods when it happened

Just saying, 32 bits isn't something you want for the long run if you do want to use (larger/more) mods at some point.

# fringe salmon but with mods the game freeze

easiest way to check unload half the mods you use with freezes

if it still happens, unload half the mods you have loaded and test again.
if it no longer happens, the issue is with the other half of mods. load that half, then unload half and test. if it happens, issue is with the other half.

And if you use mods like Achilles or any other there's nothing you can do about it at all, Arma just causes your og unit to loose "connection" with your Zeus module probably, can't troubleshoot things when we don't know your issue details

# steady hawk Most unlikely. If it is broken, most likely a Mod does

Saw it while running vanilla.

AI seems to be weird when it's supposed to get into player controlled vics. Saw it when trying to load up the wounded in the tac ops mission pack involving the AFV (steel pegasus, I think).

Same issue seemed to be popping up in some scenarios as well, though those were modded.

# toxic inlet Could you video/ make a repro mission in VR with vanilla content? That would mak...

Don't really have the skill or know how to make a mission.

But I can tell you the specific point in vanilla where I found it, and I'll try to make a video (never done that before) when I have some time.

The mission itself is part of the Tac Ops DLC (Steel Pegasus), where you have to go to and load up wounded in your Marshall IFV. The wounded pretty much don't enter into the IFV at all unless the player enters and exits the IFV (sometimes needing to do so repeatedly).

it's a standard CSAT group I think, they are standing at some place and once you drive there, they are joinSilented to your team. Same faction, same side

sometimes one or two will get in while you're in the vehicle, otherwise they will just wait until you get out so they can take the passenger seats. If they wait like that and you drive around they will run behind you trying to get to the "get in" position but without actually walking towards the vehicle doors

Im a bit thrown away.

So i placed 50 AI and couple of mortar strikes on altis while AI fires on me, absolutely fine, no lag no nothing.

Now i did the same on livonia and my Frames drop to 10-15 frames when the mortars hit. i cant think of a logical reason on why this would happen

I rum 64GB DDR4 Ram, a Ryzen 7 5800x and i have a GTX1070 if someone needs that info

I guess livonia just isnt really the "best" map for the Real virtuality engine, since all the cDLC maps, and altis, stratis malden, tanoa and so on run absolutely flawlessly but when taking into consideration the amount of trees on livonia its no wonder 😅

umbral narwhal
#

For what it's worth, this is normal, and no-one seems to know exactly why :P

#

I would guess there's something about the tree objects that makes either the AI pathfinding or vision tracing extremely slow.

Stuck on receiving data, joining my own server.

  • Everyone else connected fine
  • Same server and same mission file I played yesterday without issue
  • Verified game data
  • Deleted mission cache.

After deleting the mission cache it downloads the mission file 100% and then resets to receiving data and does nothing....

pine kite
#

Might be usefull to look into both the server and client rpt log file, focussing on the time you tried to join.

#

And see if there is a mismatch of mods. Might be you enabled a mod in the mean time.

#

a lot of mods have their sub-mods to fix various bugs some mods sometimes require another 4 mods for it to function properly viz. RHS-ACE compatibility etc.. And the more loaded mods, the worse the fps etc...
As a result, I wanted to include these smaller 1Mb mods in one larger mod that would be loaded as a whole, but for possible future updates, I wanted to structurally keep order in that mod so that I could possibly update or delete parts of it..
without having to go through like 90 pbo from different mods... (The mod would of course remain private because the steam workshop does not allow such mods to be published publicly..)

not possible as far as I know. make mod presests for launcher. easy couple of clicks switching

The number of individual mods loaded really doesn't influence fps that much, if at all

quality of said mods does though

lot of errors = more load time/issues

Autodetect is usually best. (higher settings shift the processing to the GPU rather than CPU. If you set lower settings you punnish the CPU that already has a tough time processing Arma with single core focussed processing)

First make sure you load no mods.

Also it is possible to have no grass because of the mission sets so

Hello. I have problem in Arma 3. I bought this game 10 months ago. First 3 months I didn't had problems with lags in game, because I set graphic to low. I joined a multiplayer group so I had to install a big modpack for game. Now I wanted to play singleplayer and I have big problems with lags. I can't play singleplayer and I can't use Eden editor, because I have a lot of lags. Sometimes I can't start the game. How I fix this problem?

Don't repeat the same issue in multiple channels in the same day. Stick to one. This one seems fine. But at the very least state the modpack you are using. And try without the modpack. So unload them in the launcher.

look at the object you want to interact with, scroll to choose an option and confirm it with Spacebar (or Middle mouse button or whatever you've binded for that action), if you're looking at the object and no menu or action in the center of your screen shows up, you can't interact with it

Hey everyone,

Question. I have a Dedicated server with some mods on it, and i've schrinken it already to only CBA, and CUP Terrains and MCC.

When i'm spawning OPPFOR AI all the clients are dropping to 1 fps for 3/4 seconds, and when its spawned back to normal. i stopped playing arma 3 in 2021, and i had no problems with it at that time, but now i do have this issue

How can i troubleshoot this, and is it a common problem or?

Sorry for my rusty english.

golden nova
#

how many AI are you spawning at one time?

dapper seal
#

Like a group of 6.

#

Also on local hosted same issue

golden nova
#

does it happen when you load up vanilla game (no mods) and spawn the same amount of AI?

golden nova
#

you could look into your RPT file to see if spawning stuff causes errors that could be logged to that file, from the stuff you listed I would suspect MCC as it's a framework that is pretty clunky and has many useless features that have broken many missions I attended

load eden without mods and see if issue persists, if it's gone, start adding your mods one by one until it freezes again and you'll know what is causing that

Thank steam for generic almost useless error messages 😄
Did you only change files? no text or description or image?
Maybe some file is too large (I think you'd reach pbo limits before you get to that 🤔 )
Maybe some newly added file contains invalid characters in the name (I don't know what that might be)

No special characters, description was changed. Pbos are all under like 200mb and I've seen bigger than that.

figured what it was, its something like "respawn on start" in description.ext. but idk how to find/edit it

umbral narwhal
#

description.ext is just a text file in the root of the mission.

#

i only have sqm

golden nova
#

then create that file and add respawn line to it

#

the "Respawn/Revive" category is what you should be interested in

neon briar
odd flicker
golden nova
#

if that's your own mission than you have the original files no? and you exported it to a PBO

#

if not then open that pbo with pbomanager and extract that mission, edit the Description file there, pack it back with pbomanager and upload on your server

odd flicker

#

ask the person who made that mission to edit the Description.ext file for you then

i made it 😂

Your best bet is to do a binary search on your modlist. Disable half of them, see if it works.

Ive tried reuploading the mod to the steam workshop as a completely new item yet that didnt work, and Ive also tried some very old arma mods ive uploaded a good time ago and those didnt work either however another persons mod which is newly added to the workshop downloads fine? This issue is also happening on my other server now. I know I can upload via FTP but ideally I want to avoid that as it doesnt solve the problem with TC Admin...

If anyone has any suggestions that would be appreciated.

heres the error im getting now

pine kite
#

Try the repair option when you click the 3 dots on the line for ACE in the launcher MODS tab. That should verify and download anything that is missing.
Or shut down Arma 3, the launcher, Steam. Then you can locate the ACE mod folder via SteamLibraryfolder\steamapps\common\Arma 3\!Workshop\@ace, and delete whatever is inside it. Then restart Steam. Let it verify the game. Then start the launcher, it should download any missing parts of ACE, which by now is all of it.

#

Fixing the timeout by extending it isn't a solution. If 10 seconds isn't enough, what is? The timeout is an indication something else isn't working correctly.

zealous ledge
#

ill try that

now that's the third listed verson of ACE in this conversation

I presume you know which one you are choosing. Right?

zealous ledge
#

i always play editor lol

#

i never play scenarios

#

i saw that having extra scenarios reduces preformance

pine kite
#

In that case, it's your problem to fix which mods you need for which scenario. Unsubbing scenarios then won't do you much good.

#

Only use the mods which you actually need. Don't be lazy and keep them enabled. Unload them for every different scenario.

its allowing me to click out of the cfg errors in the main menu and then it stops responding

#

ok

i figured

out

#

LOL

#

i left a mod on

#

that is a vehicle pack

#

that has 800 vehicles

#

im beginning to thinl

#

think

#

that that is whats happening

what mod is that?

then cook some soap from all that fat. Instead of loading it into the game 🤷‍♂️

its fine

all is good

pine kite
zealous ledge
#

i disabled the 5 gigabyte mod

#

should help

#

5 gigabytes of bloat

uncut trellis
#

the problems you have likely have nothing to do with the size of mods

#

but with mods that are made poorly and are full of errors

zealous ledge
#

i forgot to take it off of my mod preset

#

because it was making my game freeze

uncut trellis
#

yes thats what I mean by poorly made mods

pine kite
#

Probably because of those errors.

zealous ledge
#

it has 5 star rating tho

uncut trellis
#

means nothing

zealous ledge
#

we will see

#

so its not the vehicle pack

#

im gonna disable more mods

#

i have confirmed that ACE is the problem, its causing my game to freeze up

#

i also had old version of NIarms

ocean cosmos
#

Dont use old versions of mods

zealous ledge
#

i disabled the old niarms and a bunch of mods and its till not working

#

what

#

the freak

delicate elm
#

ACE is the problem I am sure that it isn't... maybe with all the other bloat ofc...

zealous ledge
#

im gonna attempt

#

project 34 bit

#

32

#

im thinking i have some mods that IM GOING to play with and they arent entirely compatible with 64 bit

uncut trellis
#

bit detph has nothing to do with mods

#

64 bit allows the game to use more computer resources

#

disable all mods

#

then enalbe some you want to use

#

and see if that works

#

if you insist using all your mods there isnt anything that can be done about this issue

Arma RPT

Arma generates a .rpt log file each time it's run, which contains a lot of information like the loaded mods, or any errors that appear, this log file can be very useful for troubleshooting problems.

To get to your RPT files press Windows+R and enter %localappdata%/Arma 3

Additionally see the wiki page for more info: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Crash_Files

To share an rpt log here, please use a website like https://sqfbin.com/ to upload the full log, that way the people helping you can take a look at it and try to figure out the problem you're having together with you.
Note: RPT logs can hold personal information relevant to your system, the game or others.

After changing the server machine, we started to experience constant client crashes. They happen just out of the blue in the middle of the mission being played. We cannot understand the reason and how to solve it. Are there any specific launch options or something we can try?

pine kite
#

Yeah, remove -noLogs if it is enabled. Otherwise you don't get RPT files.

then check your RPT because exception code doesn't mean anything most of the time.

how does "can't use the eden editor" look? No button? No reaction when clicking the button? Crash when trying to open?

Infinite loading screen when i click it

this error has kept me from playing for months however the weird thing is that sometimes I can play and sometimes I cant, I was able to play for about 45 minutes the other day and havent been able to play as every time I load into editor my game crashes

#

Theres no file llisted after the fault address in the RPT

pearl sorrel

@low sapphire I have already told you

thats also probably why

golden nova
#

RBCCore and all that stuff - get rid of it, use normal mod presets.

#

you even managed to put Veteran mod there. bruh. I wonder how were you even able to play at all with it enabled along other mods

pearl sorrel
#

Also love that "no fault is listed" despite the massive amount of 3cb mod missing error spam.
4.5mb in less than 10 minutes

uncut canyon
#

I do not think that the reason is in our mods, because on the old machine for several years with the same assembly of mods there were no problems, they only appeared on the new one.

golden nova
#

all errors are about your mods, not your machine, so it is still your mods fault.

ocean cosmos
uncut canyon
ocean cosmos
uncut canyon
#

And I will not put 150 people on the server without mods for the test.

golden nova
#

but you don't need half of the workshop for a single mission.

#

Your server crashes because it cannot handle the RPT spam, network gets clogged with messages.

ocean cosmos
golden nova
#

and RPT spam is caused by broken mods that are either old or aren't compatibile with each other, what is very common when you start up a server with ~100 mods including several maps and modpacks.

uncut canyon
ocean cosmos
#

let alone mods that havent been updated in half a decade

ocean cosmos
golden nova
#

and having modpacks instead of using mod presets like a normal person is asking for server issues.

uncut canyon
golden nova
#

struggle with the connection issues then, this is as simple as it is shrug

ocean cosmos
#

that is your issue, if you are going to continue to argue with people trying to help you remedy this we will simply not help you

golden nova
#

also if you've been here for more than 7 years than you do know how to have multiple .bat files for handling different scenarios.

pearl sorrel
golden nova
#

and if you don't know what does your RPT say and we know, then it leaves you little place to argue with what is the actual problem, you know?

uncut canyon
#

Played normally for 6 years, crashes started on a new machine a month ago - the assembly of mods is to blame. OK.

ocean cosmos
#

yes it is

#

in fact... old machine might've had rpt creation disabled thinking about it lol

golden nova
#

also mods update pretty frequently, at least more than once per 6 years.

uncut canyon
golden nova
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

ocean cosmos
#

the only thing that could help is disabling rpt creation but thats pretty poor practice on a server

golden nova
#

I told you what is written in the RPT and how to fix this, either cope with that information and start using multiple bat files or keep it that way and struggle without snuggle.

disabling RPT may help but well, just because you don't look at the problem it doesn't mean it's not there.

low sapphire
ocean cosmos
#

Yeah, disabling would only fix if the RPT spam is causing the issues

low sapphire
#

I promise I personally went through and unloaded mods I thought could be the problems

ocean cosmos
#

if youre going to argue with people who are trying to help you and know what theyre talking about i wouldnt be surprised when they stop helping

low sapphire
#

Ok ill Screenshot the launcher for ya

#

I have no reason to lie

#

Im just saying why would the rpt say its loaded if its not

ocean cosmos
#

doesnt matter what the launcher says, you have 3 modpacks loaded

#

you have tfl pbo files loaded somewhere

low sapphire
#

how can I unload them if theyre not in the launcer

ocean cosmos
#

by not loading 3 modpacks..?

low sapphire
#

I gotta dig through the addons files?

ocean cosmos
#

correct

low sapphire
#

theyre not in the launcher

uncut trellis
#

If rpt says its loaded, its loaded. You have set it up to load in command line or somewhere else.

low sapphire
#

I used to have 3 private mod packs installed they were removed from the main directory

#

I cant find any TFL related mods in the addons folder

uncut trellis
#

Or you have installed mods in Armas own folders where they get automatically loaded with the games own pbos

#

And tfl is banned crapshoot

pearl sorrel
#

Might be a good idea to remove all the Ukraine war mods, they look like they would contain such items

uncut trellis
#

Please delete

low sapphire
uncut trellis
#

We will not debug tfl issues further here since its banned content for stealing models all over the place.

Yeah idk anything about people stealing shit I was given a link to download mods for a server and I did it

However I think people being upset about modded content in a video game is stupid

#

Ok

ocean cosmos
#

you got given a link for server mods and trusted it to load them onto a machine you pay for let alone your personal computer..?

low sapphire
#

obviously I knew the owner of the server

#

Brother im not stupid by any means

ocean cosmos
#

certainly seems like it when youve been arguing with everybody here about what we know is true 🙂

low sapphire
#

I know whats malware and whats not

uncut trellis
#

This topic has run its course. No need to argue further

low sapphire
#

👍

low sapphire
#

all the Ukraine mods are gone and now the games crashing but giving no error report or I just get an inifinite black loading screen after trying to load into editor I'm guessing somehow one of these PBOs in my addons folder is somehow connected to TFL maybe even tho its not named anything similiar so my last ditch effort is gonna be to uninstall the addon folder and verify game files

#

Im just confused how the game will load with no mods and play fine but somehow no matter what mods I load it crashes, and I never used to have any problems with arma until a few months back

golden nova
#

does it crash if you load a single RHS mod?

low sapphire
#

testing it rn

#

RHSUSAF

#

It loaded up fine idk what the problem is the only shit I had loaded up the last time I crashed was RHS stuff, Ace, Polpox stuff, and a couple animation mods from the workshop for a total of like 30 mods

ocean cosmos
#

probably the animation mods then..?

low sapphire
#

im just gonna go through mod by mod and find the problem its annoying af but I miss making artwork on here

golden nova
pine kite
low sapphire
#

I got the game to load and play with a single RHS mod loaded

#

What are those random Numbers?

ocean cosmos
#

bad mods

low sapphire
golden nova
low sapphire
#

is that causing the issue?

golden nova
#

KKA3 extension is old and obsolete

ocean cosmos
#

my ace compats dont come up as just numbers

golden nova
#

perhaps there is another mod loaded with the same name or something, and the workshop one is displayed with ID instead of name

#

btw you don't need ace compats for making screenshots, not need ace at all

low sapphire
#

ill try it without kka or ace

ocean cosmos
#

if theres one of the same name then that could be causing issues as its probably an older version

low sapphire
#

You think RHS has been updated to be compatible with ace and maybe its obsolete?

#

ace compatable is obsolete*

golden nova
ocean cosmos
#

no, your mod names are coming up as numbers which they should not be doing, so a mod/s is interfering with them and is quite likely an older version of the compat

low sapphire
low sapphire
#

So I found the mods that were listed as numbers and at least 2 of them are working mods with no known issues so I have no idea why theyre crashing my game I just unsubscribed and resubscribed im gonna try them again now

low sapphire
#

those mods somehow still load up as a workshop ID even tho their is no known issues and theyre being used by other people idk I've completely reinstalled arma, I reinstalled all my mods just a week ago, I've tried so much just to be able to playa fun arma experience

ocean cosmos
#

your mods are the issue, you need to unload all the dodgy mods that dont come from reputable authors and then restart

Linux Ubuntu

fringe salmon
golden nova
#

you read the file paths listed near errors and compare mods from your mod preset to learn whether one is broken or more than two are incompatibile with each other

#

why the rpt though, what is your actual issue

novel grove
#

im getting an error saying member already defined....

golden nova
#

where?

#

I assume you have loaded mods, because you didn't care enough to be at least slightly specific about your issue.

Check the classname or file path or whatever was shown to you, if this is your mod it means you have a classname listed twice somewhere in your config. If this is not your mod, it means you're using duplicated or broken mods

I'm using a headset connected by jack into PS4 controller connected by USB (I can hear audio normally in pretty much every other game).

have you tried connecting your headset to the pc directly? Arma doesn't like handling sound for USB devices

I don't have any (functioning) headset jack slots.

Can I get help with this happening on the Arma 3 menu

pine kite
#

I've seen this screen before, but don't know the exact cause or solution. Good chance is your install is bugged. Then verify the game through Steam. Or if that doesn't solve it, then you may have mods conflicting with eachother or the game. Start unloading them one by one to find out which no longer causes that issue.

this is the report

frank tangle

#

That contains pretty much all the games own files yeah

pine kite
#

A Steam verify of the game files should get that back. But yeah, Mods for Arma 3 form Steam are stored elsewhere. And not even in the hidden folder !workshop. That is just a kind of shortcut-folder. It contains the links to actual folders where mods are stored in the Steam Workshop download repository on your drive.

Steam file verification process:
Right Click on game -> Local Files -> Verify Integrity of game files

The first process will automatically verify Steam Workshop items as well.

That is probably not Arma 3 error. Explain more about how this happend and when.

#

Got a question about why I cant find a !workshop folder in my Arma 3 main directory even with show hidden folders turned on

#

Im looking for a problem causing working mods not to work and show up as numbers and it may be because their are duplicate files in the folder but I cannot find the folder

steady hawk
#

Where actually do you look? Even though most unlikely the number of folders there can cause any issues when you don't load them

low sapphire
#

Im looking in my games main directory their is no spot for workshop files their but in my steam files their is a workshop folder with workshop mods from every game I own

#

My Enhanced artwork supporter is one of the mods that loads with its steam ID and causes my game to crash

#

I know their is nothing wrong with the mod and cup files should not cause any issues loading with it either

steady hawk
#

Let me rephrase, what is the address of your folder you're looking for?

low sapphire
#

I just want to know where to find my workshop mods for Arma 3

#

in my files

#

I read that you should have a !workshop folder in your games main directory

#

I do not

steady hawk
#

Once again, where is the folder you search right now?

#

And what does this mean?

My Enhanced artwork supporter is one of the mods that loads with its steam ID and causes my game to crash

low sapphire
#

I'm asking where are my mods located in my Arma 3 main directory

lime sphinx
#

sigh just click into the address bar on top and add "/!Workshop" to the address 🤷‍♂️

golden nova
#

they aren't in your main directory, they are in ..\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\107410. !Workshop is just a shortcut catalog, you can't modify anything there.

lime sphinx
#

but any manual tinkering with steam/launcher managed folders is a sure way to misery

golden nova
#

if you want to view the !Workshop folder, go to ..\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3 and in View settings check "show hidden elements".

#

but again, deleting folders from there will not delete mods.

low sapphire
#

so is their no way for me to find these files in my main directory because that workshop file that should be there isnt there

#

I have show hidden files turned on

#

However even after revalidating the game files that folder isnt there

lime sphinx
#

attempt 2

just click into the address bar on top and add "/!Workshop" to the address 🤷‍♂️

low sapphire
#

nothing comes up

steady hawk

Isn't it backslash \ BTW?
