#

Exactly.

#

Just reproduce it in Vanilla FFS

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:21 AM

#

ALSO:

#

Check the Numbers on the right/left

#

different

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:21 AM

#

@quaint jewel That isnt possible in this case considering the mods come from ARma 3 sync and we are all launching with the same

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:21 AM

#

Or is that something from ACE again?

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:21 AM

#

..

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

@tawny ice Reproduce. In Vanilla. Without Mods. Else that's worth 0.

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

One has the 08X the other one 03X ... so something is pretty much borked with the addons used

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

It happens w/o mods.

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

doubt it

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

Vanilla a3.

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

happens in base arma

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

I once tried to troubleshoot a problem with a guy for several hours. In the end it turned out it was a mod that broke it and he placed the Mod into the Arma 3 Vanilla Addons folder.

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

"doubt it"???????

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

Show Pics that it happens in vanilla also

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

Alright, no.

#

I'm done.

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

post the damn screen shots please

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

I'm done.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

So it was even loaded when he was playing Vanilla

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:22 AM

#

No more.

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

@quaint jewel Thats interesteing ill look into that

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

Why do you come to #arma3_troubleshooting but then don't want to troubleshoot?

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

Because.

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

would a Verify cache fix that

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

no

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

manually check and remove?

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

If you don't care about people trying to help you why do you ask

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

You guys aren't troubleshooting, you're literally turning this into a fight.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

yeah

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

I once tried to troubleshoot a problem with a guy for several hours. In the end it turned out it was a mod that broke it and he placed the Mod into the Arma 3 Vanilla Addons folder.```
Or loading the same addon again, where the old one overwrites the neweder ones

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

any other way to be sure?

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

Or just reinstall Arma

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

I cared until you fuckin stated thinking you know everything.

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

RPT

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

Yea

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:23 AM

#

and make sure that on uninstall the folder is completly deleted

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

@lucid nimbus Because he might know way more than you?

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

Ok let me try that with him give me a min

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

yea but he thinks i have like 10 fuckin hours on arma 3

#

I don't

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

Because you argue like you have

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

@lucid nimbus Well... Did you think a second about that we might actually know more than you and have spent more time with things like this than you?

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

You carry yourself like you have 10 hours in arma 3

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

Midnight, no

#

now allllll calm down

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:24 AM

#

Some Life guy that has 6000 hours on Arma but never did anything but play also doesn't know shit.

#

The hours tell nothing

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

^^

#

So again:

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

@hollow umbra fail troll, @quaint jewel I still dont agree about the map thing but im looking into that mod thing

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

No, I'm done.

#

Thanks.

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

Check if he has other Addons loading.

#

You said that before @lucid nimbus

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

Fail troll...lol.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

@lucid nimbus You just said you are done for the 5th time or something

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

@2nd time.

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

...

#

...

#

...

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

@hollow umbra dude were having a real conversation here chill bro might learn something

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:25 AM

#

Do i have to call mama?

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:26 AM

#

Peace. 🙏🏼

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:26 AM

#

Then it gets pretty quickly, pretty quiet in here

#

So, last try:

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:26 AM

#

@faint dawn What do you think it is Kill im still here

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:26 AM

#

I might learn something, that's interesting. I don't know everyting, probably not even 3/4 of what the game functions as internally. But I do know enough to say: If you're running mods, don't run mods and reproduce it

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:26 AM

#

@hollow umbra You too, just shut up for a sec

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:26 AM

#

:/

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:27 AM

#

Check if he has multiple addons loaded. If not -> Check the Filesizes.
That the Grid is different on several PC's ... i doubt it.

#

Just recheck that

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:27 AM

#

A RPT would also show wrong mods @tawny ice Or a "report" from the Arma 3 Launcher. I'd send you a link on how to create that report but Feedback tracker is offline

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:28 AM

#

@faint dawn I will check butit is unlikely due to where the mods are being launched from and downlaoded from

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:28 AM

#

One example:

#

Different Name, old stuff, something in the settings of the launcher that loads mods (old ones)

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:28 AM

#

Everything is from our server through Arma3 Sync

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:29 AM

#

Check the Launcher of your buddy also, if there is something in the init-line like -mod= bla (no clue how it looked like, can't remember)

#

What you described, sounds like (as dedmen said) not matching Versions of the Map on one of your CLients (for whatever reasons, it doesn't matter)

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:30 AM

#

We reporduced the issue Vanilla

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:30 AM

#

Check the Filesizes (RightClick -> Propertys -> Size on Disk)

#

Without ANY Mods loaded?

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:30 AM

#

Vanilla on Strat

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:31 AM

#

Would be the first time that i hear of that. If so -> Feedbacktracker.

#

Raging around is nonsense and ends up in... yeah... you see what happend above.

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:31 AM

#

Yea the kids come in and its just a mess

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:31 AM

#

Dedmen knows his sh*t, even for a furry

#

❤ @quaint jewel

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:31 AM

#

So now that we are chill

#

The map thing

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

i mentioned above what to do. Provide Screenshots where you can proof it

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

😑

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

I still dont understand how they could get different versions in this case

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

Write Protection, downloaded while Arma was open (files locked)

#

didn't properly updated etc

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

Reproduce in Vanilla. Make screenshots. Create report from Arma Launcher. If report shows 100% that you are running 100% vanilla on the same version THEN create feedback tracker report

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

Yep

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

YEa thats inpro

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:32 AM

#

You shouldn't blindly trust tools you didn't make yourself.

#

I don't even 100% trust the tools I made myself

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:33 AM

#

"Intercept"?

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:33 AM

#

Midnight...

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:33 AM

#

Dedmen, I don't think I can trust you anymore

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:33 AM

#

Midnight, shut up for a sec pls

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:33 AM

#

There is always some low level magic that breaks things without you noticing.

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:34 AM

#

The thing that made me suspicious were the different Coords:
Check Left/Right on your screens. It's the first indicator that something must be wrong with the Addons

Oh lord H1Z1 @hollow umbra

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 2:34 AM

#

:/

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:34 AM

#

@tawny ice Do you agree on, that it's pretty strange? 😉

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:36 AM

#

That was the issue at the start. The bug that the numbers are different

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:37 AM

#

Yea trying to figure out what would change the cords

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:38 AM

#

A Mapchange

#

aka different Version

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:38 AM

#

yeah but what would make the issue happen w/o mods?

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:39 AM

#

maybe you are running mods without knowing

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:39 AM

#

Yea thats what we are looking into

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:40 AM

#

Check if you have the same amount of files

#

then check the Filesize (Size on Disk)
(the stuff i mentioned above)

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:40 AM

#

he's verifying his cache atm.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:41 AM

#

cache doesn't find/remove/fix mods

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:41 AM

#

With Arma and Launcher closed?

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:42 AM

#

yes. it's downloading like 500mb apparently

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:42 AM

#

Means: There was a problem.

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 2:42 AM

#

with the base arma game

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:42 AM

#

After that, you check your downloaded Addons you used

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:43 AM

#

Yes they match the server's

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:43 AM

#

Remember: Bytesize, not the overall size

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:44 AM

#

Also bytesize can match and they can still be different

tawny ice Dec 21, 2017, 2:44 AM

#

How familar are you with a3sync?

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 2:44 AM

#

I know it's a programm.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 2:44 AM

#

a3sync hashes each file and compares them so should be rather safeish

#

But can never be 100% sure

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 3:21 AM

#

Verified game cache, issue fixed, base game was the issue. 🤙🏼

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 3:22 AM

#

Well no

#

the base game is fine

#

your local files were corrupt

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 3:35 AM

#

...

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 3:36 AM

#

See! In the end you had different versions of something and that was the problem. Like I said the whole time ^^

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 3:36 AM

#

You said it was a mod issue.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 3:37 AM

#

Yeah. Some people would say each pbo is a mod

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 3:38 AM

#

I would say it's a file.

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 3:38 AM

#

Missmatched Version ¯_(ツ)_/¯

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 3:40 AM

#

In the end I was close tho. "You are using different versions of ~~the map~~ a pbo" Just 2 words wrong

desert isle Dec 21, 2017, 5:02 AM

#

What did I miss?

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 5:03 AM

#

People reporting a bug but refusing to reproduce it in Vanilla because "We know Mods are not the problem so it has to be the same in Vanilla as with Mods"

desert isle Dec 21, 2017, 5:16 AM

#

Ah, that one. Yeah, as the saying goes “you can’t fix stupid”

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 5:23 AM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

@J. Doberman#7861 if I was calling you stupid, I’d say so. But, that’s not my style. So, no need to put words in my mouth. Thanks.

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 8:53 AM

#

You just said “you can’t fix stupid” in relation to the incident I was involved in. By saying that you’re basically implying that I’m stupid because I “refused” to provide a reproduction of an issue I had.

quaint jewel Dec 21, 2017, 8:56 AM

#

I think with "stupid" he just meant these kinds of people that always keep arguing and pushing pointless discussions to the point where it's just ridiculous

#

Whatever. I tried to get help and when I refuse to do something because I think the way I’m trying to fix it is right, which it ended up to be, I still end up getting ganged in some form. Like Chris’s statement of “noobs arguing with 5000h vets” even though that doesn’t mean shit. You guys dont know me, I could know enough shit to understand a part of my problem

#

but that doesnt matter

#

🤷

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 9:00 AM

Doubt it, but okay.

#

We told you there is a missmatch in the Files, you didn't believed us, checked "your files", it worked, we are the "dumb ones"... yeah..... no, doesn't work that way

I didnt call you dumb?

faint dawn Dec 21, 2017, 9:01 AM

#

I still doubt, that is was "just" the SteamCheck, but thats on another piece of paper.

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 9:02 AM

#

I came here because I wanted input on the problem, which doesn’t mean I wasn’t capable of fixing it myself. Some people ran into other issues before and know the fix already. You guys didnt but had suggestions.

#

Only reason I asked my question in the first place

wise barn Dec 21, 2017, 9:03 AM

#

sure, if you say so 😉

lucid nimbus Dec 21, 2017, 9:03 AM

@inland horizon Go learn SQF it will add more features and abilities to your mission. Plus it's command based, so it's really simple

inland horizon Dec 21, 2017, 5:06 PM

#

man i had a good server and i know things but this thing showed up and i dont know how to fix it

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:06 PM

Plus you can log and diagnose any of your problems automatically with it

inland horizon Dec 21, 2017, 5:06 PM

#

this only one problem

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:06 PM

#

@inland horizon no, go learn SQF. Running a server is a couple clicks and downloading for a few minutes

#

And the eden editor is only scraping the very surfacd

inland horizon Dec 21, 2017, 5:07 PM

#

but the only thing i need is to fix this thing

fallow remnant Dec 21, 2017, 5:07 PM

Doesn't the editor have respawn settings too?

wise barn Dec 21, 2017, 5:07 PM

and nobody here knows what your issue is

fallow remnant Dec 21, 2017, 5:07 PM

now it is up to you to research te issue with the links i gave you on your own

fallow remnant Dec 21, 2017, 5:08 PM

Although how exactly its breaking is hard to tell

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:08 PM

#

I still second my sqf learning

fallow remnant Dec 21, 2017, 5:08 PM

#

spectator appearing means BI spectator is enabled

#

Plus i'm assuming you're still using scripts from somewhere?

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:09 PM

#

Logging this would tell you exactly what's up, even though it's just the difference between a base respawn and a spectator respawn

fallow remnant Dec 21, 2017, 5:09 PM

Not sure how life works

#

guys, please do us and yourself a big ass favor... learn how to google...

#

it's totally fine to ask questions, AFTER google didn't give even one little hint

#

so, the ONLY way to fix your respawn issue is YOU identifying the problem by using the links i gave you PLUS google

#

check your rpt's, your map for placed respawn modules, your scripts...

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:12 PM

what do you mean scratch?

#

reinstall the files of the server

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:27 PM

Make a Roleplay gamemode from the ground

if you dont know so nvm

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:27 PM

#

No this is not what you need now

#

I am not going to waste my time since the respawn is handled so indirectly it's crazy

wise barn Dec 21, 2017, 5:28 PM

#

could also be missing respawn points... literaly everything with your respawn could be wrong

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:28 PM

#

That, and who knows with that respawn menu?

#

It could be predefined

#

In a config somewhere

wise barn Dec 21, 2017, 5:29 PM

#

worst case, yes

hollow umbra Dec 21, 2017, 5:29 PM

At this point i'm just going tell people to start from scratcu

Bad execution

@inland kayak Could he ask for it to be taken down?

inland kayak Dec 21, 2017, 5:37 PM

#

he can't take legal action if it wasn't licensed

he can ask nicely, but that would be the equivalent of asking " heeeey can you not do that?"

mission that has a missing include

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:10 PM

#

And the whole game crashes because one mission has a missing include? lol

inland kayak Dec 26, 2017, 4:10 PM

#

engine can't handle preprocessor commands errors and just crash

#

any error from preprocessor commands WILL crash the game

#

missing character, missing quote, if the command doesn't run as inteded it crashes

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:11 PM

#

well lets bug hunt then

#

hmm

#

ah I know what file is causing this

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:21 PM

#

Wouldn't it be nice if it would also tell you which file has that error? It could easilly do that.. But BI....

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:23 PM

#

Wanna know what would be even more nice?

#

Not Crashing

#

I mean, every simple application has error handling

inland kayak Dec 26, 2017, 4:24 PM

#

RV4 doesn't handle preprocessor errors

#

at all

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:24 PM

#

Not crashing is harder tho

#

Although... Just throwing an exception and handling that isn't that hard

oak stream Dec 26, 2017, 4:25 PM

#

@sage dirge Did you figure it out?

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:27 PM

#

yeah

#

It crashed because of the mission im working on

#

But the countdown template is still in the wiki...

#

and it is outdated too

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:27 PM

#

The template and include work

#

just not when the mission is pboed in Eden

#

And maybe load from folder also doesn't work

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:28 PM

#

lol

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:28 PM

#

If you pbo it with a external pbo tool it should work

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:28 PM

#

Why does BI program a export tool which does not work?

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:28 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

It does kinda work

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:29 PM

#

kinda

#

it exports it so it can crash your game

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:29 PM

#

Only if you #include a external file in your description. Which only like.. 5% of people do

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:29 PM

#

so... If I use Arma 3 Tools to pbo the mission, it should work?

#

oh no, it does not work then too

#

nice job BI

inland kayak Dec 26, 2017, 4:33 PM

#

if your include doesn't work it doesn't work

#

not BI's fault

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:33 PM

#

It only does not work in exported pbos

#

In the folder variant it works

inland kayak Dec 26, 2017, 4:34 PM

#

those includes don't work

#

at all

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:34 PM

#

they do

#

just not in the pbo variant

#

hmmm, but I would really like to export it someday...

#

Maybe I just need to change the hpp to inc?

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:41 PM

#

no...

#

The filename doesn't matter at all

#

You can include .exe or .hpp or .banana the game doesn't care

#

Your question belongs into #linux_mac_branch

sage dirge Dec 26, 2017, 4:43 PM

#

so youre telling me that there is no way to get these includes to work except to extract them form Armas files and adding them manually into the mission?

quaint jewel Dec 26, 2017, 4:44 PM

#

There might be other ways.. But that's by far the easiest

#

Other would be to make your mission a campaign pbo

im getting really low performance w hile playing MP. systemrequirementlab says i exceed recommneded settings and the in-game auto detect sets me at ultra settings but im getting like ~20 FPS and my GPU is harldy working at all. R9 290X (OCed) and an i5-4690k (OCed) and 22GB DDR5 corsair gaming ram....

#

its not bottlenecking. i can play other games just fine.

#

ive tried core unparking. all gpu drivers are up to date

gritty crypt Dec 28, 2017, 6:43 AM

#

that's par for the course when playing a massive game like Arma @rose eagle , in multiplayer there are a vast number more calculations happening behind the scenes, and typically alot more happening.

#

It of course depends on the quality of the server, the number of players on the server, and whether the scripts on the server offload calculations to you

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 6:44 AM

#

gotcha. so is it best ot just p lay an unmodded server?

gritty crypt Dec 28, 2017, 6:44 AM

#

but never expect to get performance similar to singleplayer on a multiplayer server

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 6:44 AM

#

alright. do they plan on optimizing MP? or have they done all they can

gritty crypt Dec 28, 2017, 6:45 AM

#

I mean, mods are what's made arma my only game for the past 8 or 9 years

#

so don't give up on mods, but you may have to accept foor fps, ~20 isn't entirely terrible, but drop your settings and definitely see if you can lower your AA & post processing settings

#

there's not much they can do for MP that will be a total overhaul

#

but there are some servers that are run much better than others..

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 6:46 AM

#

alright. 20 fps is avg. when i ADS i drop to 4-9 for a few seconds its quit a buzzkill

gritty crypt Dec 28, 2017, 6:47 AM

#

for example, I run things called headless clients, which offload calculations to other servers/cpus, and it helps our frames quite a bit. we can comfortably run 90-100 players on 30gb of mods.

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 6:47 AM

#

gotcha.

gritty crypt Dec 28, 2017, 6:47 AM

#

it depends on the server you're playing on, but typically unless it's a dedicated community server, they're generally don't have the same quality hardware.

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 6:47 AM

#

so basically crappy server = crappy client experience.

gritty crypt Dec 28, 2017, 6:47 AM

#

exactly

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 6:48 AM

#

alright. thanks i appreciate the insight.

#

i guess ill try to find a better server to play on lol

gritty crypt Dec 28, 2017, 6:48 AM

#

no problem, if you're devoted to the server in question, see if you can speak to an admin to make your concerns known, and speak to other players to see if they have similar issues.

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 6:48 AM

#

alright. will do.

fading pulsar Dec 28, 2017, 7:02 AM

I had somewhat terrible FPS and freezes when entering towns/flying as I had everything on Ultra whilst on a HDD

#

I'd tone stuff down to Standard or slightly higher, keep view distance and object distance around 1500-3000 and see what I get

wanton shale Dec 28, 2017, 8:10 AM

#

There is sceneComplexity param in nick_name.arma3profile which is one of the most effective way of performance tweaks. That is total number of polygons in scene,
guys with low specs pc's got significant improvements just by lowering this value... the lowest value was something about '500000' without troubles and to low polys objects

#

In A2 the lowest was about 300000if i remember correct

rose eagle Dec 28, 2017, 10:10 AM

#

@fading pulsar i re-installed my GPU drivers. seems to have fixed it. i had some sort of driver error with the game so i did a fresh install. works great now.

anyone know how to fix the issue where you cannot hear other players weapon firing sounds in multiplayer? can't see the muzzleflash effects either, tried disabling all dlc, mods, etc.

Try to reduce the "Sound Sources" in your Options Menu (idk, 64 or so)

that shouldn't have any affect since he can't even see muzzle flash @faint dawn

After that though, I got an error saying that the "Battleye client is not responding", not being able to be in any server for more than 30 seconds.

fading pulsar Dec 30, 2017, 6:01 PM

#

Is the server running Exile or vanilla?

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 6:01 PM

#

We have a RPT, Mittens.

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:01 PM

#

Custom modded

#

But I can tell you that the problem is not wrong logs

#

It's something else

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 6:02 PM

#

18:25:00 Creating action map cache
18:48:36 Shutdown normally

There is nothing logged for 23 minutes, which seems weird.

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:02 PM

#

Hm

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 6:03 PM

@jaunty badger I assumed so but didn't look up the chat for it

#

tbh I assumed he was on Exile as it's where I get virtually everyone PMing me for support

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 6:08 PM

It never says XEH preInit, so the server never actually started any mission 🤔

fading pulsar Dec 30, 2017, 6:08 PM

Is there a copy of the mission I can look at?

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:08 PM

Sure 1 sec

#

https://ufile.io/3py88

#

The addons are removed on request of Major Mittens so it doesn't error on that

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 6:10 PM

#

Btw if you upload files regularly get a mega.co/dropbox/google drive account. High speed downloads for everyone

#

You didn't remove addons

#

ace_explosives is still there. And you left a errornous comma on the end of the addons array

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:11 PM

#

I'll try fixing that and seeing how that goes

#

Comma where?

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 6:13 PM

at the end of the addons array. As I said

#

you have a ", instead of a "

fading pulsar Dec 30, 2017, 6:13 PM

I saw that

#

nada

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:19 PM

Fixed those errors you said, nothing changed

#

still doesn't load in RPT either

fading pulsar Dec 30, 2017, 6:23 PM

#

Does it open in the editor atall?

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:26 PM

#

Yes, I made it in the editor

#

I can launch it and play it on LAN

#

So am I just screwed in general?

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 6:39 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

I have no Idea what could be wrong

#

Restart your server. Join. Load a different mission that works. Join through into the game

#

then #missions and try to start your broken mission.

#

then disconnect from the server. and send that server log

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 6:56 PM

#

The RPT's appear to not log anything useful, so only the old fashioned way works: Go full vanilla (mods and mission), and then enable one after the other until it breaks.

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 6:57 PM

#

That's why I said force it to log something by successfully loading a mission so we know that it does indeed log.

#

And that way we can also make sure we get the correct log. And not maybe the wrong one

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:58 PM

#

I've already told you

#

it's not a problem of having the wrong log

#

I can read timestamps okay 😄

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 6:59 PM

#

You didn't when sending the first clientside log tho

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:59 PM

#

bruh

#

That was the first one, because it was sorted by name, not time like total cmd

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 6:59 PM

#

If you don't want further help then that's okey.

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 6:59 PM

#

bruh 🤦

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 7:00 PM

#

I still think my method is the way to go. It'll take a while, but is guaranteed to at least find the faulty addon / mission, as long as it works with all vanilla.

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:00 PM

#

You know how often it happens that people say "It's not the problem. I made sure" and then when checking again they actually see the "oops. I looked at the wrong file"

desert isle Dec 30, 2017, 7:01 PM

#

Firstly, not many people like being called bruh. Secondly, some of the most knowledgeable people in Arma wrt to this subject are trying to help you. Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 7:01 PM

#

If I could I'd use my 🔮 to figure out the problem.

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:01 PM

#

I'm not calling them bruh, I'm saying it to reflect on my frustration, I've messed it up once, and now that once is seen as standard by him

#

I've explained why I sent the wrong file

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:02 PM

#

And even if the mission load failes due to some mods.
The server says "reading x from bank" when you try to load a mission.
It doesn't says that at all. So either you have the wrong log. Or... I don't see anything else

#

are you loading the mission from pbo?

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:02 PM

#

?

#

What do you mean

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:02 PM

#

are you loading the mission from a pbo in MPMissions folder. Or from a folder with a mission.sqm inside it?

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:03 PM

#

a folder in MPMissions, which has the mission.sqm inside

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:03 PM

#

try pbo then

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:03 PM

#

How?

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:03 PM

#

In Eden export to MPMissions it will pack you a pbo

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 7:03 PM

#

Yeah, the servers RPT is definitely weird. If you'd start a mission, it would log XEH preInit in frame 1.

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:03 PM

#

And then retry and send new log. It will 100% log when it tries to load the pbo.

#

📎 Takistan.Mountains_ACR.pbo

#

Or just that

#

delete the folder in MPMissions and put that PBO inside.

#

That still has the ace_explosives and the comma. But shouldn't be a problem

No loading mission in the log

#

I tried loading the PBO

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:14 PM

#

Apparently not

#

it logs "Loading x from bank" (A PBO is a bank) when it does that

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:15 PM

#

the pbo file is the only thing in my MPMissions folder

#

and I tried loading it

fek this I'll just reainstall my server, reupload the mods then remake the mission

You cannot load a cup terrains map if the server doesn't have cup terrains

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:17 PM

It does? Why does it say it doesn't then?

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:17 PM

#

No idea

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:18 PM

#

It doesn't load it. So you cannot load a mission that requires it

which explains everything

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 7:18 PM

#

Yep, CUP terrain is not loaded according to the list of loaded config patches.

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:18 PM

Check the paths. Check the capitalization too on Linux.

@CUP_Terrains_-_Core

Sure you use underscores and not spaces?

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:20 PM

#

You have @CUP Terrains - Maps but you try to load @CUP_Terrains_-_Maps

#

which are obviously completly different

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:21 PM

#

I was told everywhere that there are supposed to be underscores instead of spaces

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:21 PM

#

What?

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 7:21 PM

#

because space seperates it

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:21 PM

#

No

#

that's why you use -mod="..."

#

so that the space doesn't seperate

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 7:21 PM

#

If they're spaces, spaces; if they're underscores, underscores.

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:21 PM

#

whoever told you the underscores thing deserves to be shot

faint dawn Dec 30, 2017, 7:22 PM

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:23 PM

#

But you retrying to make a new RPT and having me look at it solved the problem. So in the end me telling you to make a new log kinda solved it ^^

Lesson learned. Don't listen to idiots telling you bullshit

faint dawn Dec 30, 2017, 7:25 PM

#

like commy, he will force you to use Macros!!111oneoneone

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 7:25 PM

#

Spaces are definitely not underscores. And spaces terminate the start parameter arguments, which is fixed by using quote marks, not by chaging the addon names to something wrong.

quaint jewel Dec 30, 2017, 7:26 PM

#

The BIKI start parameters page for sure tells you about encasing it in quotes. And says nothing about replacing stuff by underscores

jaunty badger Dec 30, 2017, 7:26 PM

#

Dscha, how about you write your own scripted lobby in 2 days without any macros.

Use a server management tool if you can't do it correctly yourself

also, triggers are evil and won't get you far when you need to add more features to your mission

#

Well it's guarding a whole 120x120 area

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:36 PM

#

Yeah it'd be easy to get a random position inside that area

nop, that's the point : as it requires ArmA 2 , shouldn't it just Arma 2 is installed, and launch the required first install stuff if they never were launched ? launching "Arma 2 : Operation Arrowhead" goes well, it install stuffs and a main menu pops up. then relaunching british armed forces gives me a new error message, screenshot incoming

@cerulean ferry I am in no position of doing so, ask in #arma3_scripting

cerulean ferry Dec 30, 2017, 11:37 PM

#

Alright fair enough

@versed monolith Hmmm...have you tried switching your system language to english? Seems like a localization issue

versed monolith Dec 30, 2017, 11:38 PM

#

in addition to those errors, the steam interface popups the serial keys window.

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:38 PM

#

Yep, you can check the box to disable the appearence of the key upon play

versed monolith Dec 30, 2017, 11:38 PM

#

it seems to work if I click play ( well, ..... "Jouer" ) , on that window. despite the errors

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:39 PM

#

Clicking play where? The steam library?

versed monolith Dec 30, 2017, 11:42 PM

#

After the campaign intro

#

yeah, clicking play on the steam interface. not the library, the window listing relevant cd keys

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:42 PM

#

Those seem like errors you can ignore as long as they don't crash the game

versed monolith Dec 30, 2017, 11:43 PM

#

I presume any G36 will have some texture issue, then ^^

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:43 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

versed monolith Dec 30, 2017, 11:44 PM

#

also, it seems the game got launched twice

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:44 PM

#

Weird lol

versed monolith Dec 30, 2017, 11:45 PM

#

This "Play" buton :

#

oh. this time, I just had to clic the "OK" of the bottom error .

#

Are you sure it's not just your game being a pain in the backside?

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:47 PM

#

Well,

#

you see

fading pulsar Dec 30, 2017, 11:47 PM

#

I've managed to install it, launch, get into campaign without a single error popping up

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

hollow umbra Dec 30, 2017, 11:47 PM

#

Arma has little to zero sympathy for you

tiny imp Dec 30, 2017, 11:49 PM

#

tried the good ol trick of 'run as administrator' when starting steam client ?

versed monolith Dec 30, 2017, 11:49 PM

#

not yet

#

that would be an ugly solution, if it works
