red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:05 PM

#

exactly

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:05 PM

#

Know how to fetch a rpt file?

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:05 PM

#

nah

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:06 PM

#

#

upload to zippyfiles or something

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:08 PM

#

i have a dozen or so

#

want all of them?

fringe salmon Dec 10, 2017, 3:08 PM

#

sort on date

#

upload the latest one (the ones where your crashed occured)

#

thanks my dude

#

You make it easy to help us help you :)

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:11 PM

#

yey, hope i dont have to buy a new hard drive tho XD

#

mostly cause this one is very old so its a very likely possiblity its just broken

fringe salmon Dec 10, 2017, 3:11 PM

#

usually not the case

#

fixed a lot of mine by simply running Steam as admin

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:11 PM

#

hm

fringe salmon Dec 10, 2017, 3:12 PM

#

now 3den is slow AF though

#

but that was update related apparently

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:12 PM

#

yeah it seems like i've been getting these issues in one of the latest hotfixes

#

the one that was like around 60 mb

#

since before that everything worked fine

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:14 PM

#

@red inlet disable chemical warfare and see if that fixes it, come back if it doesn't and I'll ask someone better then me to take a look

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:15 PM

#

hmm okay

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:17 PM

#

@red inlet Do a file integrity check first please actually

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:17 PM

#

game cache verify??

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:17 PM

#

yup

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:17 PM

#

okay

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:39 PM

#

Does it crash out whilst playing vanilla?

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:42 PM

#

havent tried full vanilla but even if it doesnt i see not much point, not intending on playing vanilla

fading pulsar Dec 10, 2017, 3:44 PM

#

If you try vanilla, and it occurs, you then know it's your game and not mods...

#

If it doesn't happen vanilla, you then know to look for broken mods...

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:45 PM

#

i mean if it was mods everyone else would be crashing and theres people with worse pcs in my group

fading pulsar Dec 10, 2017, 3:46 PM

#

Arma is a very special game, ACRE2 would cause crashes for 1/2 of them whilst the rest were unaffected Everyone had the same mods

quaint jewel Dec 10, 2017, 3:48 PM

#

Well.. ACRE :u

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:48 PM

#

@red inlet Seems to be hard drive memory related, sorry bud

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:49 PM

#

got that from the file i sent you??

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:49 PM

#

Yup

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:49 PM

#

so whats the actual issue with the HDD

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:49 PM

#

Read errors.

#

Probably due to it being old

#

Is it a mechnical hard drive?

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:50 PM

#

yes

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:50 PM

#

Then yeah that's prolly your issue

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 3:50 PM

#

guessing the only solution is to buy a new one?

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:51 PM

#

Yeah afraid so, and in case you have anything important on there, transfer it to a USB stick, like today.

#

photos, save files, etc etc

fading pulsar Dec 10, 2017, 3:52 PM

#

@quaint jewel Some of our group are looking forward to TFAR 1.0 so I believe we'll be giving it a test at some point, not sure 😄

quaint jewel Dec 10, 2017, 3:52 PM

#

Don't test relay antennas. They are apparently broken 😄

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 3:53 PM

#

@quaint jewel they fancy af tho

quaint jewel Dec 10, 2017, 3:54 PM

#

Well the antennas work. But if you are 4km away and Radio to a buddy standing 20m away. The signal will go to the antenna and back instead of directly to your buddy... ¯_(ツ)_/¯

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:02 PM

#

@oak stream @red inlet did you actually test if your hard drive is failing, or just infering it from the RPT?

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 4:02 PM

#

infering it

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:02 PM

#

okay, then test it too 😄

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 4:02 PM

#

after he verified cache and replaced files, which then still crashed

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:02 PM

#

sec

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:03 PM

#

that's all well and good, but no substitute for a proper test. Use HD Tune or HD Sentinel or whatever else you prefer

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:04 PM

#

err i got 2 pending sectors

#

and 3 reallocated

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 4:06 PM

#

@fallow remnant https://paste.ee/p/A3q5U

#

There's the relevant rpt if you want to take a look

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:07 PM

#

any bad blocks etc?

#

do a SMART test too

#

volvo i don't not believe you 😄

#

I'm not saying you don't

#

It's just that I'm a idiot and sometime miss things

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:08 PM

#

and how do i check for bad blocks??

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:08 PM

#

it's just good to test hardware explicitly for faliure, is all

#

ah

oak stream Dec 10, 2017, 4:09 PM

#

Yeah someone being able to verify the info and come to their own conclusions is just a positive lol

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:10 PM

#

hmm it doesn't look too bad, but there's one pending sector that's probably the one causing the crash

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:10 PM

#

how to fix

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:10 PM

#

try running a SMART test with HD Sentinel?

#

Well, it should fix it itself. If it can't fix it then it's (probably) run out of replacement sectors, in which case fix by replacing the drive/claiming warranty on it.

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:12 PM

do i click repeat test?

#

hold on nevermind im an idiot

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/332903270722961410/389449752863047692/unknown.png

#

here, looks like its fine but its fucking not from what i can see ingame

#

if i did a full disk wipe and reinstalled windows (since i do have a lot of clutter and shit on it that i dont actually need) do you think it'll be fine?

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:19 PM

#

yeah, a full format should force a reallocation

#

see if you can "write zeros" to the disk, too

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:20 PM

#

hm?

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:20 PM

#

BTW, just try reinstalling the game first, if you didn't already

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:20 PM

#

okay will try that

#

but whats writing zeros?

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:21 PM

#

uh it's...probably best to look it up online but in short, when you delete a file or do a "quick format" the actual physical disk isn't wiped. It just gets overwritten.

#

So writing zeroes basically means you flip the magnetic bits on the disk surface to wipe it's data completely

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:23 PM

#

so nothing gets deleted but the entire drive's contents just get overwritten with the same exact things?

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:23 PM

#

Do keep an eye on the health of the drive though, if you get more bad sectors as time goes on, might have to replace it

#

no no

#

it's overwritten with new data

#

"deleting a file" simply means the OS doesn't keep a track of it anymore

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:24 PM

#

so its basically a more hardcore wipe

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:25 PM

#

what is a more hardcore wipe?

#

Writing zeroes?

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:25 PM

#

yeah?

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:25 PM

#

Yeah, it's a hardware level wipe

red inlet Dec 10, 2017, 4:27 PM

#

i'll just reinstall arma first then

#

hope it doesnt get reinstalled on the broken sector

fallow remnant Dec 10, 2017, 4:27 PM

#

probably shouldn't, since the drive's firmware and the OS know it's broken

Has anyone noticed issues with 1.78 and UAVs? Seemingly random, the UAV will drop down to default 50m. Control is lost and regained after 10 seconds swapping from gunner to driver. I haven’t found anything on the issue tracker for it. At first I thought it was HC messing things up but I’ve tested without HC and same thing happened. Dedicated server.

#

@fallow remnant @oak stream thanks guys, seems like it got all fixed when i reinstalled the game and reinstalling it seems to have taken care of one of the pending sectors on my hard drive too so the game must have been installed on the broken one

oak stream Dec 12, 2017, 9:57 AM

#

Awesome

#

Glad you got it figured out

red inlet Dec 12, 2017, 9:57 AM

#

but eerr that fixed crashing, its all good but do you guys think you know how one would solve stuttering and 2-3 second freezes that happen situationally?

#

maybe using some of the ingame parameters, or any specific settings that would make both the gpu and cpu have equal loads

#

i mean it really mostly happens if i get shot in close range ( i guess firing particles and all that), when theres big fights (but thats obvious I guess) and when i drive at really fast speeds

fallow remnant Dec 12, 2017, 10:45 AM

#

@red inlet that's unfortunately caused by using a HDD instead of an SSD, the Arma engine "streams" data from the disk almost continuously, so that's a problem. Defragmenting your hard drive could help, though. Additionally, consider lowering the object view distance to 1000m or less, and keeping the object, texture and terrain quality to medium or high (medium may not look that good).

queen rampart Dec 12, 2017, 11:00 AM

#

Ah... interesting... Does that mean hard drive performance could directly effect game performance?

#

I guess allocating more ram wouldn't help that much either, eh?

crude kestrel Dec 12, 2017, 2:06 PM

#

So I reinstalled BattlEye and the server still kicks me. Could it be the mods causing an issue? Should I launch vanilla and join a server to see if it still works?

Should I reinstall ArmA?

@red inlet it's global - so for both infantry and vehicles. One affects rendering of the base map, the other controls object rendering distance

anyone can help with BE Client kicks ? i know they just rolled out 1.80 Hotpatch, ive been in a exile server for hours on end, after a restart now its endless BE Client Not Responding kicks. changed firewall settings both windows and router, dropped the firewalls, BE Service IS running, Steam verification done no errors.... out of ideas

So when you try to play the singleplayer campaign with ACE3, it doesn't work because explosives. Does anybody here know a good way around this?

#

Ideally I'd like to just cheat in some trigger devices and use the ace mechanics

#

alternatively I'd be happy with disabling it and have arma 3 vanilla explosives while keeping the other ace features without having to make a copy of the mod for SP and delete the explosives pbo (which is the only idea I currently have)

jaunty badger Dec 13, 2017, 12:41 PM

#

Delete ace_explosives.pbo and make sure Steam doesn't redownload it automatically.

median imp Dec 13, 2017, 12:45 PM

#

steam always redownloads things, which is why I'd have to copy the mod locally

#

but is there no nicer way than to mess with the mods files?

jaunty badger Dec 13, 2017, 12:48 PM

#

Don't use Steam.

#

It's the price for laziness. You're treated like an idiot.

median imp Dec 13, 2017, 12:59 PM

#

that might be true

#

but I'm lazy

#

xD

#

apparently that also breaks the savegames

#

I can only replay missions completely

#

when I try to load a checkpoint it tells me it depends on ace 3 explosives

jaunty badger Dec 13, 2017, 1:14 PM

#

Yep.

oak stream Dec 13, 2017, 1:16 PM

You can just use simple single player cheat menu if you want to speed through the part of the mission that you've already done @median imp

median imp Dec 13, 2017, 1:16 PM

#

can I use that to give myself items?

#

then I might just use that to give myself a triggering device for the explosives

Because the signature check timed out... Obviously.
That may happen because you are too slow to answer. Which might happen because your PC is too slow at building the signatures. Which might happen because your Hard drive is too slow

I have 230 hours in Arma, and for the past 20-ish I cannot play the game. I can use Eden Editor, and Virtual Arsenal, but if I try to test an Eden mission or play SP/MP, my game crashes. It does not give me an error besides Status_Application_Hang. As far as I know this just means that there was a crash, but I havent been able to find any other details than that. I've updated my drivers, clean installed the game, repaired mods, changed my settings, and I cant think of anything else. Ive contacted BI support, but havent gotten an Email back. I've already asked this before, but I figured maybe this time I could offer RPTs or something of the likes?

Ok I'll try it.

fringe salmon Dec 17, 2017, 10:41 PM

possibly also disable firewall for them

if its forwarded two firewalls

on the gateway and the host

I need hlep with the squad.xml setup. Everything shows but my image. I've tried using armasquads, and, after no luck, i'm currently using a hosting site. Img is 256x256. i tried the .paa and i'm currently using .jpg. I feel like i've seen every youtube vid, reddit post. I just don't know what i'm missing.

fading pulsar Dec 18, 2017, 3:49 AM

#

Your ingame must match the name that's given in the XML iirc

slow condor Dec 18, 2017, 3:50 AM

#

My profile name?

#

it is, and i get the clan tag, and all the info i've put in. just not the image

#

image name in xml matches actual img name i just used logo.jpg and they both are in the same folder

#

I can post link to them if needed

fading pulsar Dec 18, 2017, 3:53 AM

#

Then I guess the image isn't sized correctly

slow condor Dec 18, 2017, 3:53 AM

#

256x256 won't work?

fading pulsar Dec 18, 2017, 3:53 AM

#

Or too big, not sure

slow condor Dec 18, 2017, 3:53 AM

#

Ooo whats the size limit

#

currently 69.4 kB

fading pulsar Dec 18, 2017, 3:54 AM

#

Try making it smaller, I'm not 100% if there is one but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

slow condor Dec 18, 2017, 3:55 AM

#

worth a shot

slow condor Dec 18, 2017, 4:13 AM

#

made it 64x64 and it's 8.6 kB. Still not working

#

All logos must a have resolution of 2^x / 2^y (e.g. 16 / 16, 32 / 32, 64 / 64, 256 /256) as per community wiki

#

i can link to the files if someone knows what 2 look 4

so frustrating (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

sure

#

but I don't understand your confusion

slow condor Dec 18, 2017, 4:20 AM

i was just trying a smaller resolution

#

the issue is the image won't load into the game, but the rest of the squad stuff does (like the tag, name, info and such

hollow umbra Dec 18, 2017, 4:20 AM

#

Okay, 64x64 is a smaller resolution, but that's mainly reserved for icons. What in arma are you using this for?

I'm having a computer issue that I'm hoping one of you guys can help me with. I run a gaming laptop with a 960m gtx nvidia graphics card. This has occured so far when playing both Rocket League, Rainbow Six Siege, and Arma 3. I will alt + tab from the game, then tab back in and the game will be frozen and a windows error of program has stopped responding to appear. It doesn't happen everytime I alt+tab, but regularly enough to be very annoying. Here is the real confusing part. After one of these alt+tab crashes occurs, any modern game I try to launch will tell me my graphics card does not support DX11, and won't let me run the game. After I restart my computer it will allow it again. I ran a memory test this morning, and I also checked the windows device manager. After a crash, the graphics card is still listed in the device manager. If anyone has any ideas that would be great, been restarting my computer many times a day.

@jaunty badger @wise barn you think I intentionally went onto a 150x server? I literally started playing yesterday and spent all day grinding to go to another server when my the game was finished, then play on that server for about 5 mins and notice I got a bunch of cash (20k) out of nowhere

#

I dont know why you would think I would intentionally cheat, it was a honest mistake and if it was intentional do you really think I would come here to admit it and try find how i can resolve it in the first place

#

If i had malicious intent to cheat don’t you think I would have kept on playing on it and told no one? I spent all day learning this game and trying to make money only to learn I may be banned for a small mistake and be accused of being a cheater. Like what 🤨

Just updated to the creators update (fresh install and all) I think my game might be stuttering more than before. Anyone else get more stuttering when they upgraded to 1703 or 1709?
Also is it normal for Arma 3 to only be mainly utilizing one CPU core?
I got an i7 6700k, and in MSI afterburner its mainly showing CPU Core 3 as around 75% usage and other cores are around 25-30% usage.

quaint jewel Dec 20, 2017, 6:33 AM

#

Yes Arma only uses one core.

peak sapphire Dec 20, 2017, 6:41 AM

#

Gotcha! thank you.

peak sapphire Dec 20, 2017, 7:21 AM

#

Is there any fix for frametime stuttering? FPS will be fine, but the frametimes will be spiking, causing 60FPS to look like 30...

fading pulsar Dec 20, 2017, 7:24 AM

Install Arma on an SSD?

this is what it looks like on MSI afterburner

Why not have your friend post here?

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 1:34 AM

Makes me think.. What is a "Map interface"? I'd guess the interface between a map and your brain are your eyes right?

#

So.. Your friend is having a massive issue with his eyes?
Need more details

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 1:39 AM

#

Every single map, the grid numbers on the left and the right are different from mine.

#

In-game, you press M to open a map. The grid #'s are different from the left/right of mine.

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 1:41 AM

#

I think you're reading the coordinates incorrectly then

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 1:43 AM

#

I'm not reading the coordinates incorrectly. I mark a position on the map, the grid location is "023023". He sees it and tells me what grid location the marker is for him. He states it is something like "023075".

@tawny ice Different versions of the map.

It does change the grids

because they aren't constant throughought each island

I'm pretty sure grid lines are based on the northing/easting on TB.

It can't possibly be a mod version difference

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:07 AM

#

Because the mods are the same as everyone else on the server

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:07 AM

#

I'm giving you an issue w/ things that we already know. We know that this isn't a mod issue. Our mods in no way affect the difference in grid numbers on the left or right side of the map. He has confirmed that it has been doing this since the start of his "ArmA 3" life. The issue lies somewhere with ArmA 3 itself.

#

I just confirmed every single mod that he has is the same as ours.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:07 AM

"PBO locked server" meaning bisign probably. Two versions of the same map that are signed with the same bikey. No problem for a "pbo locked server"

#

Oh because you know that isn't the case, it must be the case

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:16 AM

#

And we are talking about a problem that can be caused by two people running slightly different versions of the same map.
And if they are made by the same author they are most likely signed with the same bikey.
Which means the server won't say anything if you use different versions

When you say map are you refering to the Map Wake Island created in the Editor uploaded to a server then launched, or the Map I pick-up from the VA

What Dedmom says is correct. You can connect with different Versions of the SAME Map. If they were signed with the same File as the Version before -> NO KICK
