Only explaination I see is that TFAR is not running on the Server.
The message sometimes pops up when you JIP although TFAR is actually working Serverside. But as your SR Radios also don't work. It's probably not

weird thing is longrange and voice is fine, only SR...no pipe 6 error only that message
imma delete and redo mods

how so?

Because it needs to fetch the Radio ID from the server so you don't have duplicates
Voice and backpacks don't need ID's

has anyone ever come up with this kind of error?
Exception code: C0000094 INT_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO at 02143A2C
happens after right click in Eden editor, Arma3 hangs and crashes with this exit code
it is random and can happen on any official island, but looks like its more likely on Malden and Tanoa, but no rules really
quaint jewel
Yes. Everytime I try to divide by zero in c++
Onto the feedback tracker with that. and attach a couple crash dumps

@cobalt ginkgo Uploading multiple crash reports might help. You could try if it also happens on dev branch. If so post Link to issue tracker in #dev_rc_branch to get more attention

there are 3 latest crashes inside the report, I dont play the game much just testing the mods/functionality, maybe I will if when it happens again

as I said before, a few hours ago they released a security patch which changed the game version from 1.72 to 1.74, because of that until the servers are updated no-one can get online. It's also early morning in on a weekday Europe and the middle of the night in the US, so not many people are going to be playing right now anyway

it wasnt technically a crash
no errors etc
game still running in background but i had to force shutdown my PC

complete system lockups suggest something low level, generally indicating a problem at kernel or hardware. They can be triggered by userspace applications but the actual root problem lies elsewhere

I am aware that many people may say that this discord cannot help, but I am looking to see if anyone else has encountered this problem rather than begging people to help me fix it.

Thank you.Also to note: The error shown there 'bin\config.bin/CfgVehicles/CG_ATF_Handcuffs.minHeight' has been ruled out as the cause of the issue.
It's a config error in a mod, the pack has been loaded without it, and with the error non-present, with the same results.

Load another mission file, if it then happens again, reinstall the server package
If it then happens again, you have a special special server machine
hollow umbra
Or you know. Its a life mission. Tehehehe
grim island
I think it's to due with the missionfile itself. I agree Midnight.
I'm trying to clean up other people's work, but it seems it's way too far gone to "clean" - rather a re-make entirely would be easier in almost all aspects.
hollow umbra
Lol
west eagle
i can't see any servers in the browser nor the launcher, any idea what could it be?
grim island
Are your ports open for your server?
Also, having this show up in my server .rpt:
Cannot open object a3\structures_f\ind\factory\factory_main_part2_f.p3d
Could this be from a corrupted (ish) download, or something from bohemia?
hollow umbra
@grim island could be corrupt. Verify your game cache via steam
grim island
Doing so now.
hollow umbra
@west eagle close all of your games, close steam and re launch it
grim island
I have re-installed the server actually, still experiencing the error.
Downloaded freshly from SteamCMD.
This does not happen on my other dedicated server. My dedicated server runs altislife. And the one I am experiencing the issue with is a lakeside server (pretty heavily modded)
west eagle
@hollow umbra close it all, re launch steam, verify game cache, restarted everything pc included.... no clue
hollow umbra
Yeah that sounds more like a mod screwing with the base game @grim island
grim island
I don't see how it would cause that error, then again, I wouldn't be surprised either.
hollow umbra
@west eagle do you have a certain filter in which is too restricted to find any servers? Ie any server with 10 ms ping
@grim island maybe a mod with an a3 structures dependency i have no clue either. I would strip it down to one mod if you can to see the root of the issue
grim island
It's almost 300 total pbos of mods. this will be fun...
west eagle
@hollow umbra nope, no filters, i can see some servers in the favorites tab of the launcher and join them, but its not all of them, no filters anywhere could it be related to buying the dlc?
grim island
Could someone have a look at my server log and maybe tell me why my mission.sqm is not working? I am so confused it's not even funny. 0_0
hollow umbra
@west eagle nope. Would not be related to any dlc. Make sure the port range 2300 through 2303 udp is open
grim island
if it's hosted on port 2302 I think it's 2302-2305 UDP
west eagle
@hollow umbra riiiiiigh..... where do i do that? XD
grim island
Is it on a dedicated box of sorts?
Hosted on your own pc, on a panel from a company, or again, some sort of server of your own? If it is one of your own, what OS? Windows Server, Linux, I don't think I need to mention MacOS Server.....
hollow umbra
@grim island yep, 2302-2305 udp. Janos is running client not a server.
@west eagle look it up on http://www.portforward.com they have guides for each invidual modem and game
fierce bloom
Clients don't have to forward ports to join games though
quaint jewel
Also not seeing Servers in the Serverbrowser means the connection to the master server is the problem. Which is not 2302-2305 UDP.

Hello guys , when i execute this script on the debug console :

test1=1020003;
while {true} do {
if (test != test1) then {
hint "test complet";
systemChat "test complet";
};
};
Sometimes arma 3 says test and test1 are different ?
hollow umbra
@tardy trench @fierce bloom my thought process was: could be restricted or blocked. So i have no clue. No need for that.
Which is obviously not the case
I get it
quaint jewel
@worthy jackal The bigger a number get's the lower the precision.
But the issue here is probably that other scripts also use the test variable. As it is quite common
worthy jackal
@quaint jewel Their is no script who use test because it's in local , on the debug console of eden editor
and why bigger is a number lower is the precision ?
quaint jewel
Because that's how floating point math works
There are still a lot of scripts in local and vanilla Arma. That might use test
worthy jackal
So i change the "test" and the probleme is still happening , but it's not all the time , it's like for 1 second and than it stop .. I don't realy understand why , her is a way to avoid this problem ?

My headtracking system seems to have suddenly disappeared from Arma :/

@thorn swift what system/software and have you pressed Refresh under Controls > Controllers?

@worthy jackal I've just did a small test and never received that result. Numbers remained equal, even with larger numbers, so something is up with the vars, check them in the watch fields.
thorn swift
Open track, repeatedly. The only controller listed is my steering wheel set; neither TrackIR or Freetrack appears. It was working last night. @fierce bloom
fierce bloom
@thorn swift tried rebooting?
thorn swift
Once, yeah. Plugging in joystick and it shows up right away, changing usb port for the camera had one of its drivers fail to install, though OpenTrack still works with it. Rebooting again.
Rebooting seems to have corrected the driver, but no dice on restoring controller function.
No luck with installing latest build of Opentrack.

Well, I don't have any experience with Opentrack, sorry. Hopefully someone else can help

@golden forum i believe I did read that the message is related to execute delete commands on objects which are not local to the machine which deletes it.
A possible way could be to delete those objects where they are local currently. But I never tested such workaround

@fringe salmon Problem for me is I have so much stuff now that I don't even know what those errors are referring to. Do you by any chance know how to use those numbers to find them?
fringe salmon
No. Just try to use every deleteVehicle command where the object is local. Use remoteExec for this
The much easier solution for your purpose is a took which filters our all unnecessary stuff from RPT file. Just google for it, it exists for sure
@golden forum
Tool which filters out
golden forum
@fringe salmon Thanks for tips! Yeah I already use something to filter my logs but I just thought it would be nice to fix it. 😃

You can send links to pictures here. But that won't help us. A access violation crash could literally be a crash anywhere. Doesn't have to be in Arma.
you could PM me your mdmp and I'll check if it really is a Arma issue. If it is you can either open a feedback tracker report. Or get the newest #perf_prof_branch and if you also crash on there then forward the crashdump+rpt to Dwarden (Just post link in #perf_prof_branch)

Does anyone have any ideas/experienced this issue before?
fringe salmon
Saw in the control settings that devices such as the T1600M could be used for mapping (vanilla), however this does not seem to be present in the Configure Addons section. Any way around this?
fierce bloom
@fringe salmon depends on the mod iirc. Some mods can accept joysticks and some can't?
Or maybe it's always been you can't bind joystick buttons to mods... I forget

use the repair options, have had this before.

You can use the diagnostics in A3Tools

Firstly, I advise you to use mikero's tools. But what you can do now is click "project drive management" and then "install bulldozer"

well the prob is

I assumed you already had it working before. If not, read the above.
odd ocean
the prob is i have a drive already called P

so yeah the program is sayin error
for the mount drive
dim void
Oh, this seems more like @wet coyote can help you with that. My best guess: change the P-drive you have currently assigned.
odd ocean
can i?
dim void
P-Drive => Arma
dim void
Well, so everything has been set-up correctly right?
using A3tools?
the P-drive has been created with A3Tools.
odd ocean
wait wait waaaait..
back up
i have another prob
i just tried to change : P: to :A but... it says that it has to be empty
dim void
No no, you have to keep the P-Drive your P-drive
everything works on it being the P-Drive IIRC
fading sequoia
can you have real drive that's P and virtual that's P at the same time?
dim void
Tried repairing the files yet?
odd ocean
how?
dim void
right-click arma3tools (steams tools list), properties, local
verify integrity
and if that doesn't do it, try mikero's arma3p ( https://armaservices.maverick-applications.com/Products/MikerosDosTools/FileBrowserFree )
Mikero's tools saved me hundreds of hours.

That would depend on who's asking. In general, not really. Learning this isn't that hard you know, mastering it is.

even if you run diagnostics you have errors

i'm guessing, but try compatibility mode for win 8

there is a file wich tell me errors?

and make sure you are running 64bit version
you mean the RPT, yes

quaint jewel
Stop using -maxmem=15311 -maxvram=6145 -cpuCount=8 all of them only hurt more than they help
bronze ocean
they can be the problem?
quaint jewel
probably not
Could cause a crash later on theoretically. But not just drop you to desktop without a message
bronze ocean
-exThreads=7 ?
uncut trellis
could be issue with the mission
bronze ocean
i have the same problem in KotH, or in SP mission when flying
so is not the mission
uncut trellis
have you contacted BI support?
if its a vanilla game issue they should be notified
bronze ocean
well, i'm thinking about TrackIR or Joystick, it happens when i use them
wise barn
i use both too and never had problems
bronze ocean
track ir 5?
wise barn
jup
bronze ocean
so maybe the joystick, saitek rhino x56
wise barn
a joystick is a simple input device that should never cause such sudden CoD errors
bronze ocean
i mean, it's only happening when i'm flying using them, also rudder pedals
idk, is making me crazy, lossing alot money in KotH QQ
wise barn
try starting it with default settings (no custom stuff like cpucount, ect) and in win 8 compatibility mode
bronze ocean
ok
will ask later if happen again
with all default
also memory allocator?
i get error when i use windows allocator, so i use intel and works good

Hey, is it just me or is battleye been really messed up lately? It always blocks everyone's ace files and last week it got so bad we (my unit) had to completely disable it.
quaint jewel
It's everyone
Battleye always had that issue. But it's gotten worse recently
Why are you using Battleye?
upbeat trout
Half the server panel stuff we use relies on it, we cant properly give out bans, kick or even messages
quaint jewel
Hm... I know a guy with a project that could do that without BE :u But It's secret.. sadly.. (If you read that. Even just releasing these 3 things.. You know what I mean)
Well. Then you're doomed I guess
upbeat trout
Battleye sucks, the only thing it has ever done for me is cause issues. Is there any way to make it allow the ace files?
quaint jewel
no
quaint jewel
@upbeat trout Probably good news for that project I mentioned. You might be able to do your stuff without Battleye. But no promises yet. I guess he'll message you for beta testing if you want

@astral pier Did you change or delete your player profile?

nope, not that i am aware of at least

No you can't recover them. Unless you created a new profile and switched to that. In that case there also isn't anything to recover because everything is still there
That happens quite often to me on Arma Updates. I always keep a exported backup of my loadouts

Good advice, I should be able to recover a lot from opening my mission files where I ùsed them

Hi, is it confirmed a bug that bombs always hit, when you just lock the target with R or is this working as intended? It takes the skill away of dropping bombs well and also the teamplay of having people mark the target for you (or doing it yourself, if the laser is activated).
brave hawk
where have you seen that an LGB will always hit its target?
lone karma
When I lock a tank with my Neo or new jet, I only have to drop the bomb sort of close and it will guide its way to the tank.
The tank can counter this by moving or using smokes.
brave hawk
well, it's Laser Guided Bomb, so....? :o)
though I admit that even if the lock is not fully locked, it is still very comprehensive and will hit very close or spot-on

I've downloaded a dozen maps for arma 3, ones with good reviews in the steam workshop. On 3 of these maps if i open then and scroll a few seconds i get memory access violation and crash. Is there some known problem?

I mean this is a bad example, but here I only lock with r and it hits dead on and I can do that from any range without much difficulty. It was harder to kill tanks before.

@crisp cove i doubt that it has to do with the animal on board. Are you using createVehicle, createUnit ?
crisp cove
createunit
ive had a dog system for years with no issue only in the last say 4 months has this started to happen
my guess is that its some kind of cleanup system to stop land animals going swimming but i cant find any logic in deleating animals that are attached to vehicles or on objects above water such as bridges or in the hold of a boat. i kinda feel BIS tried to fix the land swimming fishs but set the dection in reverse as fish can still swim on land near beachs
hollow umbra
I would say that is a pretty solid assumption. Having tuna swim on land was a bit odd lol
Wonder if there is a way to exclude it from cleanup

I have a question regarding HC's: I've been running them successfully for about 3 years now but today I ran into an issue I've never seen before. I just migrated my server from Windows 8 to Windows Server 2012 and in testing my Arma missions, I keep running into an issue where once the mission starts, even while in the middle of still doing some script stuff, each headless clent's RPT file reports several "Creation of x ignored, state GAME FINISHED" and then it just completely stops. No CPU usage, nothing. It just sits there. I have no idea what's causing this. It worked day before yesterday prior to the migration.
hollow notch
Disregard. Having Steam client loaded in on the server caused it. I'm guessing disallowance of multiple instances with the same Steam ID attempting to log into the server.

Has anyone been having memory leak issues within the zeus game mode since the "Laws of War DLC" launched? That's the only major event I can tie this new trend to, as its just started recently.
It has happened to myself and two others I know, all of us under the same circumstances, so it is repeatable. The leaks seem to occur when we are slotted as zeus and open the map when in a game. I believe this is the triggering event. It happened multiple times when I was zeusing on my dedicated server, and it occured to another guy repeatedly when he took my zeus slot. It also happened when another player was acting as zeus off of the server, while he was hosting his own server off of his machine. It is kind of game breaking considering the map is very useful in Zeus. Anyone know of any causes/fixes for this issue?

I am trying to keep the stance indicator/fire select/stamina bar permanently displayed via server side profile, but for some reason its not working. I run ace on the server, and have both stance/weapon info set to 2. Does anyone have a solution, it keeps fading in game.

@reef plinth Yea i can confirm i had the same issue. I was running a mission on Saturday and every time i opened the map my game would either instantly crash to desktop or if i was in the map for a minute or two it would also crash
shadow topaz
Same happening here when using an admin tool mod on dedicated server, zeus module created, open zeus interface and then map view. Instant crash to desktop. Costno from Folk Arps says its happening to them as well with F3 framework's zeus. Its definately broken since LoW official release because its been working previously.

I'm attempting to switch some of my groups servers to 64 bit. We've held off until now as we have a heavily modded pack. It seems to get hung up on the x64 dll from Task Force Radio (v0.9.12). Does anyone know what is going wrong here? https://pastebin.com/VigJS5xF
Pastebin link is the end of my client RPT, where it starts to get hung up.
fringe salmon
need to provide a full rpt, All my servers run Ace and tfar x64, no issues

:O... It's not getting hung up on TFAR.. I guess.. As the RPT logged that that call returned it says that function also returned.. But 2s for a VERSION transact.... WTF
That call is usually sub 30 microseconds in TFAR 1.0

same here, very unstable zeus, largely when in map but not always
when i get a chance i will gather a report if its still ongoing
silk prism
So I am getting an issue with weapons continuing to fire while players are reloading. It doesnt occur on their screen however on other peoples screens the gun is still going off and they can hear the gun going off. I am not sure if it is a Laws of war DLC error as I only noticed it after the update. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this error.
Another thing is that their rate of fire does not match what other players see, so for example they are shooting in fully automatic on their screen but then on everyone else's screen they are shooting in semi automatic and then they continue to shoot while playing through the reload animation.
dusk saddle
For those of you who have had Zeus crash when opening your maps, can you recall if you personally, or any other Zeuses had recently deleted any units before the crash? I've ran a bunch of tests, both on Zeus templates we run on our server as well as a quick map with only 1 unit for Zeus, both with all our mods and even without any mods loaded and it seems the crash has pretty much only ever occurred if I deleted something then opened the map.
It's happened with empty choppers, choppers with the crew, crewed assault boats, and squads. If I placed any of them and deleted them, the next map opening causes a crash. If I placed down a single individual person and deleted him, it doesn't crash but if I place down a second person afterwards, delete him then open the map, it'll crash.
silk prism
@dusk saddle Ive had the crash happen on fresh restarts of the server and with nothing placed down and simply having the map open for 2-3 minutes results in a crash.
dusk saddle
I'm assuming that, like me, it's only started happening after LoW dropped
Spaghetti code whoo! \o/
silk prism
Pretty much yea. As much as I love Arma 3 they really screw up occasionally.
vocal scaffold
i didnt really do any deletion, certianly didnt crash on deletion. usually map stuff, scrubbing around. very frequent though.

Should I be using TFAR 1.0 ? I'm still on 0.9.12, but it's supposed to be x64 compatible.
I'm typically cautious about using prereleases.

It is 64-compatible. What's the issue? I don't know what's wrong with your thingy. Might be your Teamspeak
hollow umbra
Still 32 bit? Thought that was updated by now. Especially since shacktac is still using it, maybe an inhouse fix
vocal scaffold
i would have to check when i got home but i feel like we did get a 64bit patched stui

We're an old unit mate 😛 Probably was such a small mod it got looked over in the pack.
quaint jewel
A few hours ago I read a Feedback tracker report. Of a guy loading a hundred Mods.. Some over a year old. Others clearly incompatible with eachother such as CUP Terrains and A3MP.. And then he was complaining that his Arma was so crashy
gritty crypt
We don't have quite that many mods, but I've been working on removing redundancies over the past few days and chose to update everything to 64-bit. Wasn't an issue before because we have some in-house mods made by unit developers that were 32-bit only.
Now all those are up to date, so I figured I would find what the incompatibility was.
quaint jewel
Make a Spreadsheet of all your mods and their version/download link
Organization is key

Aye, looks like our version was from March 2nd.
Anyway, I'm out. Time for work - thanks for the help guys.
shadow topaz
@Rorkiy#2856 I'm guessing your Zeus template does not dynamically create zeus, where as I was creating Zeus dynamically an insta crashed once in map view. There were no other zeuses created or edits done with zeus prior to crash.
desert isle
I was actually going to mention STUI, but "thought better of it" as the problem was solved "ages" ago.
dusk saddle
Yeah, our templates just have a preset number of 4 Zeus slots that can be entered and they're always there regardless of whether they're used or not

well that one i managed to get to the main menu forcing windowed mode then i went to join a server and crashed
it is currently sat in my background procces and cant even kill it with command prompt
severe osprey
Update i changed to the profiling build and am no longer having issues loading and joining servers,

@mellow spear it may pass the dlc available through -mod.
I see what you were referencing. That doesn't seem like it originated from the launcher

Crashing in Mp with zeus when opening a map. 😐
stoic zinc
@forest tide Wonder when hotfix will arrive for that :/
supple crystal
Can confirm Zeus is crashing after LoW release, 3 different Zeus' in my group have gone from not crashing at all or only 1 or 2 times during a mission, to crashing upwards of 10-15 times over a 3-4 hour mission. PS its not just in Zeus map screen, no pattern to it that we can see yet.
quaint jewel
@supple crystal Please upload your reports to https://feedback.bistudio.com/T126671 or https://feedback.bistudio.com/T126674
First one is a little more specific to perf/prof build
supple crystal
RPT's?
supple crystal
The last two aren't generating for these crashes because the apps hanging
quaint jewel
a hang is not really a crash.
Arma should still detect a hang and still create a dump.
If it hang's its not the same bug as everyone else has.
Also RPT won't be that useful in case of a hang
supple crystal
All the Zeus' in our group are getting the "apphangfb1" error/CTD after a short period of having the Zeus interface open, started happening the day LoW came out, was fine the night before.
- "apphangb1"
quaint jewel
can you try out profiling build from #perf_prof_branch ? That might output better error reports
supple crystal
Ahh ill try, were in aus so.. you know we have potato net, might take a bit
should i repost this error/crash in the profiling branch channel or somewere else?
quaint jewel
It's a well known crash. If it really is the Zeus crash.
Just get crashdumps and upload them to the profiling related Feedback Tracker issue
supple crystal
Managed to get the extra crash files this time by NOT running with -hugepages, got a different error though "appcrash"
the mdmp+bidmp, ill upload them to the feed backtrackers you linked
quaint jewel
together with the RPT
supple crystal
yea
quaint jewel
and please no duplicate uploads ^^ Only push them to the one that doesn't have profiling in the title.
Also tell them about -hugepages. That might be useful
supple crystal
so upload to this one correct? https://feedback.bistudio.com/T126671 and report it in both?
quaint jewel
Are you running profiling branch?
That ticket you linked has profiling in the title. So if you don't run profiling that's not the right place. And the devs see both tickets. No need to post something twice
supple crystal
yeah my bad full derp I linked the wrong thing but I get what you mean thanks man appreciate the help
supple crystal
Updated the feedback tracker https://feedback.bistudio.com/T126674#1643968, not sure how important it is but the last line in the RPT for the crash when deleting units from the Zeus map view is "Exception code: C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at 0153FE74"
quaint jewel
Useless information. The exception code itself doesn't say anything useful besides "Arma crashed". And it is also included along with much more useful information in the .mdmp and .rpt files which you included anyway.
You can also directly upload files to the Feedback tracker. No need to use an external hoster

hi guys, i have a problem just wondering if its common or others are getting it, and if theres a fix. so my problem is that when i put strain on a server I host, the weapons bug out, when shooting fully auto, the gun starts a semi auto sound/animation and slowly increases fire rate, if reloaded before the game has caught up, the gun will shoot while reloading. its fair enough that its because i put strain on the server, but it never happened before the recent big update adding the new dlc, even when strain was applied.

Subscribing/Unsubscribing can occasionally be finicky. There is an option to clear download cache (or similar(I'm on my way to work so don't have PC access) within Steam. iirc, its VIEW->SETTINGS->DOWNLOADS->CLEAR DOWNLOAD CACHE. Once you've unsubscribed, clear the cache, shut down Steam completely (may as well restart your PC for giggles) then check to see if it's still on your machine. If it is not, then re-subscribe. An issue I once had is that I was using an older "local" copy and not the Steam linked version I though I was. I had run low on HDD space and moved stuff to another drive.
fading pulsar
I suggest only clearing the cache if you don't have many workshop subscriptions. I foolishly did that once and soon learned redownloading 100gbs was very, very, boring
desert isle
Clearing the cache doesn't delete subscribed content, it only flushes the cache of previously downloaded content that is no longer subscribed. At least in my exp anyways.
fading pulsar
Yeah I'm unsure what happened. I remember clearing it and instantly regretting it
desert isle
What happens occasionally is that people unsubscribe from a mod, then attempt to re-download it and Steam says "don't bother, I have a copy right here".

Nothing prevents you from using perf branch.

You can use the perf branch on any server
So what Dedmen telling you, you should not have any problems using the perf over stable

I do understand the words you are saying. It's fine to say you don't know when the fix is coming to stable; that is an acceptable answer.

i'm assuming it's some sort of optimisation that they're being too aggressive about
trim wren
It's a shame if it was, as I assumed 64bit was intended to improve ability to handle more assets / effects going on at the same time.
fallow remnant
it's not just memory though
something has to render and simulate those particles
optimisation is hard 😄
but like i said, it could be a "bug" in the sense of it being too aggressive
people should make a feedback ticket about it though at feedback.bistudio.com

For me it looks more like the old particles are stuck in the memory and removed only when the simulation notices theyre not supposed to be there anymore.

So i have a bit of a weird internet connection, the provider is messing with things i'm not fully aware of (don't ask). Whenever my connection shuts down briefly and i have to re-connect to an arma server, i get "connecting failed" and it takes 10-15 minutes until i can reconnect, sometimes a bit longer. Anyone knows what could be the reason for that? It is server independent, even happens on my own server. I can connect to other arma servers immediately, just not the one i was on previously.
Maybe it helps if i mention that programs like teamspeak fail to reconnect, too until i restart the program, then it works immediately.
This solution seems to work, but it is quite the hassle. Maybe there is an easier way and this provides a clue to what goes wrong?
last acorn
You could ask the ISP what they are "messing" with, so we get a bit more info :)
quaint shadow
I tried that, i called support a dozen times but they just wall and give out zero info. They claim they're doing nothing at all.
fringe salmon
Sounds like your blacklisted somewhere, to littlle info though to figure out what your issue is, what do you mean your isp is meesing with things, like what exactly?
reef plinth
Any known causes for player invincibility in ArmA? It's a reoccurring issue lately, and we do use mods. If I had to be suspect of any one mod, id assume ACE is causing it. It breaks immersion in missions when players can take a shot to the head and be just fine. For some reason, as Zeus I can still kill them, and they can die from random shit like a car explosion, but bullets have no effect.
fringe salmon
ace3, and if your using asair
last acorn
@quaint shadow ok, so it might actually not be from the ISP's side, since they at least claim to do nothing. Are you on a Wi-Fi or using a cable? How often do you get disconnected from internet in a day?
quaint shadow
@last acorn it is a wlan hotspot kind of deal. it disconnects every 4 hours exactly for reasons the infrastructure was created by a foreign country firm that went out of business and had a cooperation deal with a local provider so the local provider is "heh we might sell you the access but we don't run that particular infrastructure". And i'm certain they're messing with the connection, they somehow mess with DNS requests, they intercept http pages (not https) to show their landing page, and VPN is throttled
I might add that the issue i have is strictly linked to their 4hr disconnect while playing on arma servers, and does not happen on other connections i use (expensive 3G)
fading pulsar
@reef plinth Pretty sure you can change the settings of ACE to allow killshots, so if shot to the limb they may drop unconscious but if hit by a .50 or to the head they'll die
reef plinth
So you think it's a mission file config?
fading pulsar
Don't know if it's missionfile or the mod you configure/config
thin crest
When will the zues crashing bug get fixed?
fading pulsar
Try the perf branch.
tiny imp
@thin crest i suggest you to try #perf_prof_branch new performance binary from profiling branch (as it contain quite a lot of crash fixes since 1.76.main stable)
last acorn
@quaint shadow to make sure it's not something wrong with the equipment try using a cable instead of the wlan, just to see if you still disconnect. You can also check for updates to the firmware for router or even use a 3rd party firmware if available.
Lastly if you still have issues run a program like pingplotter over night so you can tell exactly where the disconnect happens, save the report as it is good info for the ISP and usually something they will ask you to do when they run out of ideas.
quaint shadow
@last acorn It will be a bit difficult to lay a cable out 600 meters to the hotspot, also i might have to cut open the stainless steel housing of the outdoor unit with an angle grinder but i'll try.
I don't need a pingplot, the disconnect is exactly every 4 hours and thats intentional from the ISPs side. They state that on the hotspot landing page.
last acorn
ah ok, then there is no fix for the root issue unfortunately. but try to disable your network adapter and enable it again when it happens, maybe you will be able to reconnect again after that. if it works you could make a .bat file and use the "netsh interface" to disable / enable quicker.
quaint shadow
I tried that already. I also tried reconnecting the adapter physically. Doesn't help
