vehicle has a renegade player in it / it's player locked
Sometimes it spasses out when another player gets in
And somehow spawns a non simulated AI instead
I haven't been able to reproduce it.
me neither but I know it happens
If group leader is AI then sometimes they don't let you get in
that's when you shoot them in the face and ask a buddy to pardon you (ACE)
absolutely not
either a friendly in the vehicle shot another friendly or it's player locked
you can fix that with ace by getting people to hop out of the vehicle one by one, and once you found said person that is a renegade get them to surrender then use the pardon ace option
in vanilla unless you have the debug console you're fucked
and if somebody is alone in a vehicle and has the problem? ๐
they can't get to the driver seat by getting out and back in?
there's seats you can't switch to other seats from / he isn't on the side of the vehicle where the action will show up
yes @inland kayak
he is
was it an AI vehicle?
no
alright..time for a weird bug: 1st person view + wireless Headset = almost no gun firing sounds..but as soon as one of the two conditions aren't met, no sound problem. anyone experienced that one before?
all the other sounds are fine
irl wireless headset?
if that's the case, is it only gunshots or any other loud sounds?
and only in first person, not in third?
that's... weird
my bet is that it might be a problem with the headset, not the gmae
Hey guys, trying to make a custom mod for my server, and whenever I try to join, I'm getting a connecting failed error then I'm kicked. This has happened a few times in the past with different projects, and I've never really known the real reason. Sometimes it can happen a few seconds after joining, sometimes whilst downloading a mission file, any idea?
check your RPT files (local and server)
Iโve checked and Iโm not finding anything that stands out to me
Could anyone tell me what does this error code means? "0X00000FF"
it means the game crashed because of something else
@fringe salmon I already answered you before. #arma3_questions 10 hours ago.
There is ticket https://feedback.bistudio.com/T82532
I love the suggestions on that ticket
literally anything could've caused that error, you won't know more until you check the dump
Export logs option from launcher still working, anyone tried it ?
@Dedmen thx but what is 255 supposed to be? cuz im having trouble running arma like is there anything I can do to fix it?
O that's odd cuz it crashes my game
What version of Arma are you on?
O gotchya so i have another popup that says bad_module_info? That mean anything?
Pre sure its battleye related, PC restart tends to fix it for me
Damm..... Well even with restart it still isnt letting me play on my usual wasteland server
what does your RPT say?
No that also doesn't mean anything
Probably some troubles with the hardware / drivers...
Bad lottery is started ๐
Yup but imma go on ahead and wipe my pc and see if it works
Then we will go from there ๐๐๐๐
stop...
update your audio drivers, your graphics drivers and maybe even usb drivers
for audio drivers: all of them! onboard, headset, external (if avaliable)
even if it is never used for arma, update it
Or... Just look at the crashdump/rpt
that's what i asked 30min ago.....
Well he obviously didn't care ^^
Btw tested that export logs from launcher option, it works...
One zip with everything inside
Ight i will look at that
I updated my graphics and wiped my pc arma works no errors or anything like that
Nice
So is anyone else here getting a "Client not Responding" error from Battleye?
bad_module_info crash. Help......
generic error message
so what do I do?
check the RPT for any info
RPT?
is it consistently crashing?
yes
C:\users\yourUser\appData\local\Arma3
I join a lib, I get there, the first time it happened I was looking for a place to spawn, the second time, I loaded in and started to run, and it crashed.
those are logs (end in .rpt)
what do I do with those?
You find the most recent and copy it's content to pastebin / gist / whatever but don't dump it here and send the link
I sent it to you
nothing conclusive there either, and with the shitload of mods and errors you got in there it could be anything
@fringe salmon Try a PC restart, I personally think it's BE related although I don't know and haven't been told otherwise
okay
When I click on the voices in the virtual arsenal, the characters' mouths move, but no sound plays. I don't have any mods installed, and as far as I can tell, all other sounds work. Any way to fix this?
do you have dialog (or radio can't remember) sounds turned all the way down?
I doubt it, but let me check
I've had a voice play when I went into the virtual arsenal once
but they don't play when I click on them
radio is all the way up
Any ideas on why a mod I'm trying to get create/run would cause a hang/crash when loading the player profile?
...did you check your RPT?
Check the last thing that happened in RPT, that's usually the problem
How does one access this RPT? (I am new to this sort of thing)
hehe
I need to make a 10 second video tutorial for the amount of times I've answered that ๐
Go to your local appdata folder -> Arma3, then click View in Windows Explorer, and check "View Hidden Items".
Voila, RPT files will show up by date in your local appdata -> Arma3 folder
Rad ty
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Arma 3
I've had a quick gander through it tough I'm not sure what I'm looking at in where it hangs
.RPT files
I'm referring to inside the rpt file
Does anyone know what could cause this RPT spam? https://i.imgur.com/stdHMKn.png - After this mission becomes unplayable and have to restart it. It randomly started happening this past week, nothing was edited on the mission or serverside in the last 2 weeks
Please just send snippet next time instead of a screenshot...
16 bit Floating point number overflow ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
Some Animation could cause that I guess
Like I said, went through it rougly but can't figure out what's causing it to hang on profile loading.
That is only a small part of the log. Where is the rest? Or... Is that when the game crashed?
Yeah, that's the entire thing
Well. Last line is ACRE. So I'd guess that ACRE is crashing your game.
Can you try without it?
Uhm wait...
What the hell are these startparameters
A new text document as param file. But still other parameters.
A name that is... Nothing.
Uh, I'm not sure. Let me check that out
That file doesn't exist where it says it is
The only parameters I used other than the skip intro and splash screen are from the launcher
Remove all parameters of which you don't know what they do
enableHT is hyperthreading, hugepages is for large-page support and maxmem is system memory limit
enableHT is useless on processors that have hyperthreading and it hurts on processors that don't.
Sry @quaint jewel here's the snippet, although pretty heavy and will challenge any browser ๐ https://pastebin.com/1NsUsV0R
Oh crap. Challenge indeed. With Snippet I meant snippet. Aka short piece of code.
Aka
11:40:50 Overflow
11:40:50 Overflow
11:40:50 Overflow
11:40:50 Overflow
11:40:50 Overflow
Ohhh ok
I thought u needed the whole RPT
lul
So u were saying that a character animation could be causing that?
The only thing printing that message is 16-bit floats. And afaik only animations use 16 bit floats
But I don't think that's what's causing the crash
I also have this weird thing that every now and then, even if the server restarts normally, it creates minidumps like if it crashed
That can happen on freeze
When a certain part in the code didn't say hello for some time the engine freezes itself completly. Creates a minidump and then continues running again.
So that devs can investigate the freeze
I see
@smoky hemlock maxMem should only be used for limiting by the way
Doesn't the default limit it, though?
nah
common misconception
same as extra threads
oh, fun fact, they changed the setting description in the launcher
it's called "system memory limit"
So by disabling either of those wouldn't limit me in anyway?
It would run better
Very popular with people was also setting -maxVRAM to let it use more vram.. Problem though if you use the parameter and try to set 8GB of VRAM it would limit it to 3GB. Because there previously was a limit in the startparamter that didn't get removed when they allowed Arma to use more vram.
And if you just didn't set that parameter at all it would use the "full" 8GB.
Nowadays with DX10 -maxVRAM does nothing I think
Didn't A3 get a dx11 upgrade?
yes
Well.. Kinda. yeah.. somewhat. Thingymabob
If dx11 is not available it uses dx10
Huh. Interesting,
Rule of thumb. If you don't want to intentionally limit anything. Don't use these parameters. Aka cpuCount/enableHT/max*
You don't need to tell the engine what hardware you have. It can find that out by itself.
Often times I see new users taking advice from 3+ year old posts and then wonder why things dont work correctly. My rule of thumb is "if you dont know what it does, dont touch it"
@desert isle There's a 'thats what she said' joke in there somewhere, is there not?
๐ค
Rare bug I've been getting over the years
Low fps when in-game. Alt tab, instant 60fps
running in -nopause and borderless window
@forest tide https://feedback.bistudio.com/T124746
Thanks
rlly?
it's worth way more
Depends if you have a potato PC or not

@quaint jewel regarding that overflow error, I think I found the bad boy 13:52:57 Get matrix of physx actor is not valid! Object: 19e5d35a040# 1137345: tt650.p3d, RDS_tt650_Civ_01, Local
arma 3 is pretty fun with friends and mods
Where is that #arma3_troubleshooting ?
404, question not found ๐
anyone else getting a massive amount crashes with bad_module_info?
Yes.
I think it just writes that for every crash
instead of "something happened. Game crashed.."
It says "bad_module_info" and every idiot thinks that actually means anything
internet said Microsoft fucked up
not using beta
again, it's a generic error message
windows 10 is a beta. Broken early access crap that Microsoft forced onto people
like DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED is
Well.. That's not generic
that means the DXGI device got removed
Which happens for me quite often
Wonder how many searches "Windows 10 back to 7" came about during that seven month period they were doing "Free windows 10"
yeah, I remove my GPU everytime I alt tab in a loadscreen according to that error ded
you got to git the keys with less force man
Shiett...
Weird how it's mainly North America with W10 to 7,
and Arma 4, is everywhere.
Wonder what Africa searches now that some regions have more access now lol
Arma 4 was already searched back in 2004... wtf
typos
Seems to be a lot of typos
DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
can also be an audiodriver crash, or usb headset when the power drops out
i know some cases of that
the bad module error is like the good old error in 0
and then bluescreen
๐
just system clean up and drivers updates... will fix most of "bad_module" errors
โ
mods causing crashes can also produce that
โ โ
โ โ โ
hey you know the expansions list that shows DLCs and mods that the server uses in the server browser? i see most servers have the mods also visible there, which is normal, but what could make a server's expansion list only include DLCs and not the mods
i have a server that has a buncha mods on it, enabled and working, but it bothers me that they don't show up in the expansions list when you select the server
They should if you have the BIKey added.
Np
That and Arma can be weird
Welp... Im stuck in a pinch I wiped my pc clean, reinstalled everything and I am still getting the bad module info error. I also updated my windows and graphics drivers. So would mods have anything to do with why its crashing? Running out of ideas and paitence ):
I had some progress and thought I had fixed it but when I actually had the time to mess with arma its back to square one...
Uninstalled mods no help either
Ikr?
Okay, there is another option: you can go into your pc settings and revert your windows 10 to an earlier update.
Cause the reason it's giving us this is because of the december windows update.
So I would recommend reverting your windows or waiting until windows updates and fixes the problem
not really much you can do
@Thefeelsman#4074
Im afraid that I wont be able to rollback tye update since I wiped my pc and all that
I might have to wait until whenever they release a new build but thats about it ):
The*
Ya ur good no worries
Anyone know some other way to roll back windows update? Possibly downloading something from Microsoft?
Then again I no longer have the old windows update files so there's that.
I think im gonna redo the reset and then disable windows ability to update itself. Should prevent the error.
It's worth a shot
thefuck
DO NOT EVER FUCKING REINSTALL WINDOWS TO FIX SIMPLE ERRORS
and, absolutely DO NOT stop security updates
You should go back to windows 7/8 o7
My gaming machine is on Win 7, haven't had this issue ๐
Win8.1 no issues either
@fringe salmon Send me the report (https://feedback.bistudio.com/w/ft_a3_howto/gamecrash/) as PM please
Will do @quaint jewel
@inland kayak THIS. Never stop security updates or I will yell at you.
yells at @oak stream
@inland kayak I am a desperate man lol
Oh, you are working on a paper for the last 3h and for some reason your autosave function doesn't work. Let me help you by force installing some updates and then reboot...
#justWin10things
- disable all your mods
if it still happens - Check game integrity via steam
if it still happens - Update drivers
if it still happens - Follow what dedmen said
The part about yelling at me, in other words? @inland kayak ๐
@quaint jewel logged into the website with the report where do I go from there? Also do you want the file zipped?
logged into what website?
I've sent you a link to a step by step tutorial which will spit out a zipped report.
O gotchya
021018_e2_A3Wv14b_8d89f2d wat
Always happens on that server?
usually wasteland mission scripts, sometimes modders break it. and also it was just recently updated by the admins.
with the broad scale of what happens
From last RPT I'd say Infistar.
But I see you are also getting crashes in singleplayer
Ya rn I am about to send you a file related to that I used single player as a test run
It usually crashes right as it loads
And infistar is a anti cheat tool if im not mistaking it
Idk y its doing on the server tho
Yes. Infistar is a anti cheat tool that has the ability to crash anyones game as it pleases
Or give backdoor access for chosen people so that they can take over whatever server they want.
So it causing you to crash is not that far fetched
Funny thing is I have no clue as to why the admins would need that tool including the other staff involved
Your logs are kinda weird. There is one dump without a logfile. And then there are more logfiles without dumps
Ok sending secondary report
It would be perfect if I had both
No. I don't see any in the report
Ok thats good the other report just sent
I apologise for the delay for some reason it didn't want to immediately send
Again no crashdump. Dunno. have you tried #perf_prof_branch binaries yet?
To be honest I have no clue as to what any of that does but yhea whats up with it?
Im guessing that arma cant process quite right on my rig?
https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/160288-arma-3-stable-server-180-performance-binary-feedback/?do=findComment&comment=3262183
They have crashfixes that are not on stable yet
Maybe it fixes your issue
I will certainly go on ahead and do that and see if it fixes my problem
Btw I greatly appreciate the help its keeping me away from a world of hurt
Oh I had also forgotten to mention that on the server the highest capacity is at least 80 peeps and is very active, alot really goes on there its some of the more involved servers. Its essentially high traffic 24/7
Infistar hmmm ๐ค
DXGI_DEVICE_REMOVED something is always happenign when I attempt to join a arma server. Any fixes?
stop alt tabbing during the loading screen or update your GPU drivers
I never tab during loading will see if drivers need a update.
Just updated drivers, let's see if my game wants to work.
does anyone know where the ace_server.pbo can be found? (no it's not in optionals for ace, searched there)
really annoying being unable to set pernament ace settings on a server
"The server config setting entries are done through our optional ace_server.pbo, which can be found in the optionals folder of ace"
oh fucks sake why is it even a thing still then
Yes. Indeed. ๐
Uh..what
Is anyone else getting a lot of bad_module crashes lately?
Everyone that uses windows 10
Generic error, was discussed earlier here
Windows 10 is somehow fucking the code that detects which module causes the crash.
Normall it says "arma 3 crashed"
But because it fails it just says bad module info
It's a normal arma crash. The bad module info is completly irrelevant
Ya. Well, I'm having an issue where clients crash in that manner and then the server console states that client is losing connection. About 20-30 seconds later it says they disconnected fully and the server crashes.
server crashes?
Yes
Anything in RPT?
Windows server? Does that also print bad module info on the server?
Nope. Just crashes. Already had Wizard look into the server dumps. Just ends. Nothing useful.
Is it Windows or linux server?
Windows Server 2016 DC
did he say anything besides "nothing useful" ?
Quoted: "so, all of the dumps ends in the physx library, I see arbitrary tasks in it, but I can't associate them with the scene"
Which scenario are you running?
ah. Okey. Sad
The event occurs when crashing RHS jets.
Does the same happen on vanilla then?
All of them?
Any of them I believe.
RHS could be inducing the crash then ๐คท
Just RHS.
Yes, I believe rhs is inducing the client crash, but it would be nice to stop the server from following suit
Probably best to take it to them on the forums then
That's the next step. Just asking if anyone knew anything that I didn't.
So i've noticed in Zeus when I place a UAV team, even on an airfeild, they just wont use the UAV
does anyone know how to make them use it?
I even have an unarmed OPFOR helicopter circling them to try and bait them, but nothing happens
I just sent them to destory an enemy on the other side of the map
they've decided walking is the best option...
move them in the uav
AI don't get back in or out of vehicles without waypoints or being dragged in or out of them
you mean the ugv stomper uav team?
they're still walking lol
what are you expecting?
I want them to fly the greyhawk and wreck some stuff
instead of leaving their #1 asset and reason for existance sitting on the ground
It's a drone
you do realize UAVs are just vehicles with AI pre placed in them you can't remove?
but they can control it right?
Alganthe.
they control the darter don't they?
Relax.
well that's stupid
no it isn't
if a player is using the darter and they die it crashes
it'd be goddamn infuriating if AI decided to give waypoints to itself
not autopilot
UAVs, the way they function, is basically just a normal vehicle with AIs inside of them from an engine perspective.
and it would be a living nightmare as a mission creator
so the UAVs act entirely by themselves even if there are no surviving men to control them?
yes
because nobody "controls" it
you're at best giving it waypoints
oh, I got a perfect analogy
think of them as autonomous cars
even without a driver in them they can still drive
clearly I misunderstood how it works then. I thought they had to be controlled because I was used to using them as a UAV operator where if I suddenly stopped giving controls to the darter it typically crashes iirc
:/
oh well
if you don't release the uav controls it will crash
Yeah for the uniniated it's... A bit confusing.
true.
In any case the darter and greyhawk don't seem to do anything when placed with a team and given waypoints, but work fine when placed alone
the men will run about but the UAV sits there
he's placing those zeus groups volvo ^
huh, the greyhawk actually followed the taxiway all the way onto the runway instead of just taking off... I wasn't expecting that
_>
O.o what do you mean?
unless you're talking about a mod i'm fairly sure we don't have overwing vapor in vanilla
Ok, then that could be mod, my bad. Let me check that...
so zues jeus just sucks in general, my assualt boat team wont get off the boat to get to the waypoint and my viper team is basically crawling there stopping at every bush
No, it's just you not understand how AI works
guess so
yeah I really don't understand the AI at all because the sniper I told to shoot someone is spinning around in circles...
okay, so originally when I was getting on a multiplayer server, It would let me play for a while, the longest being an hour before crashing and giving me Bad_Module_Info, but when I changed it to windows 7 compatibility, it said it was a status_access_violation. help.......
like I said, generic errors
yeah. I figured it out. It turns out my bluetooth headphones were giving it a memory leak.
Would someone who knows what they are doing be able to come on teamviewer with me and fix my arma 3 server? Problems the database https://pastebin.com/iwcsL1EE
I'm abit useless :/
@fringe salmon ๐
yep teamviewer will never happen ๐
Also in rpt "extDB3 Failed to Load, Check Requirements @ https://bitbucket.org/torndeco/extdb3/wiki/Installation"
Already told him that yesterday. I think he did that
I died it 3 times, didnt work
Maybe I can give you the details to the VPS?
@fringe salmon
I've tried fixing it for 3 days now, no luck
Well he screwed up or bad download. Also no clue why you are running 32bit version instead of 64bit server
I never log into someone elses server / treamviewer etc
It says its 64 bit, thats fair enough ur choice man maybe i can do it on screenshare with you or something?
Nope i don't provide that kinda of support period
arma3server.exe = 32bit server means you need to install the 32bit varients of vc2015 etc
I have a couple other errors but i've fixed it now, thanks so much you dont know how much it means thank you
@oak stream Well where is your blue name then huh?
๐ค
I don't need titles to do good stuff
๐
I'm a Wikipedian, remember? :P
@@quaint jewel I dont think that the binaries helped, still crashing and same message.
Weird thing is that arma seems to run just fine until I plug in my gaming headset but I never had any issues with it
I noticed that when I was at a friends house recently
audio drivers can cause problems
dont really know more about it but many have said issues have been resolved with audio driver updates/not using the problematic headset
Yhea seems plausable but idk why my headset would just "go bad" all of the sudden. But still
At least I can run arma for the time being
But I really gotta get it back up and running again at some point
I've done it and its worked, at least it says the database is connected but I can't join the game, I have an ID card script which you selects your details in your ID card and move on but it's not moving on from there, after putting in the details, when I accept the ID card it dosn't load it, it just refreshes the ID card continuously and i cant load in, could you help me in this? I'm not sure why it's happening :/
that would be totally an issue with whatever mod/mission stuff youre running so youll need help from someone who knows hot the stuff you are using works. You probably could get best answers from whoever made what you use.
I don't have contact with them anymore
Do you know someone who could maybe know what the issue is
nope not many publicly active life players here
Is there any way to fix 8:22:08 DLC index:3 - unable to get DLC data 8:22:08 DLC index:19 - unable to get DLC data and 8:22:08 Entering off-line mode. Callbacks and content list updates will not work. 8:22:08 Stats config disabled. ?
Dedicated server
Is there any way to fix two warnings that mean absolutely nothing and aren't fixable? No.
off-line mode is interesting... Never seen that nor the stats config stuff on a server
windows/linux?
Stats config i believe is just general report info like : 'server is in x location' or 'server name is x'
Doesn't seem they have an official page on it, just a thread back in 2011 regarding implementation
Windows @quaint jewel
I think I figured it out
Fresh reinstall of the base Arma 3 files
Something was corrupted
Guys, I am wondering if I'm the only one with this problem. While I walk forward using [ARROW UP] and pressing the button to lift or lower the weapon, I cant stop walking forward or change pace for a while anymore. Can someone confirm this behavior?
Can confirm.
Anyone know anything about headsets causing crashes on arma?
Cuz my game works just fine without them but when they are plugged in arma goes haywire
logitech USB headsets are known for arma problems
Mine are afterglow USB and are known to cause issues as to what I am aware of
Any sort of patches for it?
would need to come from the manufacturer likely. :L
tricky things those usb headsets it seems
Ya agreed
U did look at the manufacturer earlier and its essentially useless firmware updates are a joke
Files frim them are corrupt
From*
Damm my typing is terrible today
But yhea since I looked at the manufacturer I could wait until a new update of sorts roll out for arma or windows and it should fix the problem. Itger than that im dead in the water for now
Looks like running windows 7 compatibility mode helps. Can even use my headset
Yup
how to fix win10 problems 101:
roll back to 8.1 or earlier ๐
I'm getting "Warning: Current Steam AppId doesn't match expected value: 107410 whenever I launch Arma 3 1.76 Legacy Port for Linux. Is this expected?
Also, server can't be found in the browser, with direct connect, nothing.
Game just crashed again
I donโt understand your second comment, @fading pulsar. Can you explain it to me? You mean the port I have to open? I already have a 1.80 server that works flawlessly.
Same port, no?
I mean the several ports, not singular
And multiple servers on one box, means different ports for all, min 10 apart
Anyone know how to fix a server that has the status 'waiting' I tried restarting it and it didn't work
Our server is stuck on an infinite role assignment loop, never actually loading the mission. Does anyone know a fix?
New to arma 3. Specs are gtx 1070ti. 16Gb DDR3, SSD, 2560x1070 (ultrawide)@60fps. On ultra, I get fps dips when on the chopper and with rain or inside the vehicle with the rear camera screen. I know I'm pushing my hardware, but, which settings do you recommend me to take down a notch?
I'm playing campaign still
60 fps with 1070ti?
Yup
I get the same with 1060 OC
Ddr3
ah
4770k oc
Nice what cooler?
Cryorig H7
Then sort the cooler or get a decent one? ๐ค
Any setting I could fiddle with to get some extra fps?
Try some launch commands through steam?
Always some little stuff that can give u a few more fps
Scroll to preformance and try a few out
It worked for me on csgo I got about 5% more fps (even though I get like 350fps already)
Arma is not CSGO. Do not randomly fiddle with settings. 60 FPS is quite good for Arma.
Dont play on public servers, do not play on poorly scripted servers (most Life stuff)
I'd kill for 60 FPS.
It is easily reversible by just taking it out of startup bit in properties on steam
That was probably the worst advice to give a new player. In a week or less we'll get all sorts of " this is messed up now" ..."it worked fine before I changed..."
No, those startup parameters will do nothing.
Don't use those start parameters unless you are limiting usage
(the ones that apply to hardware like cpuCount , maxMem, etc)
Ok. So, which settings should I lower first? In-game,I mean, like options.
View Distance will affect the most
PP Effects like Antialiasing can hit hard sometimes
You'll just have to tweak to get the best fps for your system
๐
Disabling PiP gave me 10 FPS
PiP? Before or after the update to bounds?
Not sure, been more than a year since I disabled it.
Shouldn't hit as hard now, something to do with rendering objects that aren't there in PiP anymore.
PiP is much more friendly to performance after the Jets dlc FM.

Well you're kind of overkilling it at that point

Hey so is this for game problems? And stuff? I got a partially signed mod that doesnt let me join an arma 3 server. I get no error I just get kicked off, anyone had this before?
Apperently in RHS theres something with the PBO? But I havent touched the mods section
Okay fixed : Check the mod files and found a werid file that doesnt match with others I saw that the date was werid and once I deleted the old file and it was fixed
I installed additional 8gb of RAM (same as the one I had before), now arma grinds down from 60FPS to 8FPS over a couple of minutes ๐ก
removed the additional ram, problem persists, no mods
Try deleting your Arma3.cfg to make it redetect your HW
But such a difference is incredible
๐คฆ
When putting in the new RAM, I accidentally nudged a cable in such a way it jammed the CPU fan
๐
It's funny, the other day i had a cpu fan connector get stuck inside my gpu fan oncd
made this loud shreaking sound
wound up around the fins 3 times over lol
it was a PSU pin so all I had was a clicking sound I took for the HDD
Huh. Can you hear your HDD spin? I can't.
My PC runs like a lawnmower
Lol
also you can sometimes hear a click from your HDD when the needle resets
I only hear that every so often. Never regularly
my PC may run like a lawnmower, but because it was less noisy and that clicking was a bit off for an HDD, that what made me look closely into the case
Yeah, it's good that you did
to my defense it was a small loose PSU cable that wasn't even all that visible
PSU cable? Arent they usually red and black?
no
General PSU cables tend to be but a computer PSU has several different colors to differentiate
Ah yes, i know what you mean now.
it was one of those small pins and it was sticking out a bit from underneath the bundle I made from all of the cables
sometimes i unintentionally turn off my pc because it's so quiet and i want to start it
๐
@wise barn you need this for your cpu fan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krPQ1PMM00Y
I quarantee you wont make that mistake again after
too loud... i was thinking of a metal plate on my powerswitch that is electrecuted once the PC is on. one touch, one shock ๐
well that would work too
"is it on? "
BZZZZZZZZZZT
fainting
waking up 2min later
"jup, already on..."
or "was it on?"
BZZZZZZT again
๐
depending on how much the shock scramles your brain
For Chris? It can only get better. ๐ @uncut trellis
Ive got a "0x0000" exit code. whats up with that?
It's a 0 in hexadecimal
:0)
Well zeroes are useful for all kinds of things
Like dividing by it or multiplying by it.
Your Arma crashed for whatever reason. The exit code usually says nothing about that reason besides "It crashed"
Aye
It's a 8 digit code though.. You only posted 4
0x0000DEAD for example means the game killed itself. And you probably got a different error message before it crashed
ya, it killed itsself
Ill have another go and get back to you
Ive got 287 mods loded tho, so ddon't hold your breath
Jesus H Christ
yup
holds his breath for too long and suffocates
That RPT file size though Ded
I'd guess you probably got a "include file not found" message before it crashed
Imagine
I had 300GB RPT's already
Bullshit
I'll try to find the screenshot
ok, so: 'SMC_bargia requires addon CUP_CAplants'
Do you have CUP Terrains
yup
complete pack? With CWA?
yup
then:bin\config/cfgvehicles/I_plane_fighter_03_CAS_f/animationsoucres/addscalple/:cannot find dase class"addscalpel"
not an error
I'm not sure if missing base classes crash the game. Might..
well, what mod is it? i could just unload it
That error above looks like Vanilla Arma
damn.
ha! ive 300 ways it could go wrong, but the base game gives up on me. god damn my luck
PM me the report https://feedback.bistudio.com/w/ft_a3_howto/gamecrash/
The one generated with the launcher. Or the RPT file
k
fucks sake
:0)
And it seems you loaded mods again that are already included in armstalker
You get tons of errors about addons wanting CUP stuff. Looks like you are missing something from CUP.
What?
You are loading A3MP and CUP Terrains
some files form armstalker even conflict with vanilla Arma
so just steer away from armastalker?
Not all mods are compatible with eachother
get rid of armstalker. Get rid of the exile stuff that requires Exile. ddrmarkers thingy
Yeah. You don't load exile. But you load exile based mods that require exile
damn
got another error. anyone know what mod "ace_compatability_aegis.pho" belongs to?
flirMode MFD source does not work, can anyone confirm?
I just tried to use the "Virtual Spectator" but it doesn't seem to work properly in multiplayer? It seems to only list players instead of all units unless the spectator is also the server.
I have created an Issue here: https://feedback.bistudio.com/T127759
Does anyone else have the same problem? I'm assuming it's a bug but maybe I'm doing something wrong.
ok i start the game, it go well then i click a server to join.then while it is loading it say getting data then the whole game goes back to the homepage, and says

So something is trying to spawn that pistol as a magazine?
yeah
Either a mod saying some weapon has a magazine of that type. Or maybe even a script trying to interact with that thing that doesn't exist
Thank you, will investigate ๐
Already checked serverside pbos and mission file, and nothing there so must be a mod somewhere!
Just search for hgun_Pistol_heavy_02_F in all pbo's that are not vanilla Arma or ACE. ACE might use that but it doesn't break anything
If you click play, does it load?
anyone know what the keybind to snapping is in the eden editor?
like you move units around and its not smooth
Don't know the key bind but it's on the toolbar, iirc
@errant arch I think it's M, but you can also click on the grid in the toolbar yes
Hello! Just asking this for further advice on fixing the issue. Every time I attempt to join a arma server such as KOTH, Wasteland and Altis Rp whatever. I crash with the error DXGI_DEVICE_REMOVED.
This crash resulted in the damage I am about to show, so if anyone could give advice to fix when I do fix my laptop that would be nice!
Just kidding canโt gyazo cause on phone.
Do you alt tab in / out and this occurs?
No never did.
Sometimes when I do load into the game and I alt tab to open teamspeak or something the game crashes for same reason.
Using usb Headset?
Yes
Would that matter though?
Just wondering cause I had one before and it never happens.
Itโs not a bad laptop either so I wouldnโt see why it would cause issues.
Yes, your audio driver can be crashing your game, as Chris has seen be the problem before
I have a Razer headset do I just update those drivers?
I also have the new stealseries mouse could that cause the issue ?
Give a shot at reinstalling the razer drivers first
not sure if that was the exact problem last time, but give it a go first
When does it crash do you know?
Explain?
Like do I know when it crashes.
If that is what you were saying, my whole game freezes when I tab back in or when I load into a server and it pops up with a white box giving the error.
Don't Alt TAB? ๐
Never do during loading.
I tab when in game to open teamspeak
Then poof
Most of the time it lets me do it but sometimes it doesnโt.
No, I tab out when I insure the game is running smoothly after loading everything.
Always run full screen window too.
Arma (mostly win10) tends to audio driver dropouts on varous occasions. Mostly when alt+tab. Driver updates sometimes fix the issue, but other than that there's nothing much to do
Hmph.
Well, Iโll try all those things when my laptop comes back.
Seriously, get a copy of win8.1 on ebay for 15-25โฌ and most of your problems vanish in thin air
Ugh so many problems lol. Will do when laptop comes back from repair.
And If you don't like the UI, there are free tools to bring back the start button
Uhm, it's basically software you install and it's back
Since i don't really trust in free stuff and updates, i chose โstart8โ. Google it, it's awsome
Like 5ish โฌ
Yeah lol
Itโs being fixed ๐๐
Guys, since a week I can't connect my mates server. Earlier everything was perfect, now I always get server not responding error.
Did not change anything in PC just didn't play for a week or tow
All port forwarding has been done. Also reset modem to defaults just to be sure. Other servers work good, and other people have no problem logging to my friends server.
So I have an issue with my mod (that was seemingly working before any recent updates) I start the mission and it says "your entire squad was killed" yet they haven't spawned or anything.
@snow furnace Your "Mod" ? What are you talking about, mainly that has to do with how you've setup your respawn. Not sure what you're doing though
Ye my ww2 escape
It was working completely fine last year yet somebody messaged me on my steam profile to say it was happening yet I haven't a clue why
kinf of frustrating really
Okay...then have you taken a look at the mission file at all?
currently I am, yes
Honestly no idea what the issue could be mate.. I kind of put this together a while ago and havnt really given it a second thought after it was 'complete'
Nothing as far as I'm aware has changed since it was working fine
Okay, look at what you've got setup for respawn. It's pretty self explanatory. If you have no respawn, and say you are to die or to respawn when you start then the mission ends
What was "working fine" the details are in the pudding here
well the mod was functioning as it was supposed to
it's only recently it has stopped working that way..
Okay, absolutely nothing as far as i know has changed with the respawn system since back in apex release
So, how do you have it setup? I can't say "This is exactly how do you need to do something" without getting an understanding of what you have now, not when it was working
Well you were the one who asked for insight, and I offered to give insight with more information
Ye I know.. it's more just too much to take in for myself. I put this together as I was learning so couldn't even really pinpoint the exact issue without frustrating you. I should know, I've been on here a few times lol
Your description.ext likely holds your respawn settings, otherwise they are stored in mission.sqm if they are set inside the eden editor
huh...it seems every single mod I try does it
now that likely gets us somewhere right?
even the official bohemia ones

this error pops up every time
Uhhh....even when running vanilla?
seemingly so
well vanilla modes, not mods
will turn them off
So this is some left over crap from exile mod or something?
Yeah it would seem so, or a mod you are running is running exile code for some reason.
ye luckily i have the mod list on my mod screen on steam
i mean im glad its not my mod lol, the guys who had an issue was with the plane not taking off and that was simply just moving it up out of the ground which it randomly foudn itself in
Yeah, I'm not sure as to what all is happening there..

all this so 2 random dudes i never met can play my little mod haha
but when i made it thats all i wanted so cant moan too much
I guess that's just part of keeping a mod public
also wouldnt be so bad if arma 3 didnt load like a snail
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
I mean it works now, just getting a few weird code errors
ugh so many random line errors NotLikeThis
My game crashes when my headset is plugged in and whenever its unplugged the game runs fine. Anyone figured out a way to fix it or something?
โฆdon't plug your headset
How bout not being a smartass when I was asking a legitimate question.....
you can try to fix your headset or something... should work
which headset
usb i'm guessing
and i guess 7.1 too
perhaps even logitech
update drivers maybe?
there were issues reported after a particular arma version
but in today's era of "software as a service" operating systems (spits in disgust) , who knows what broke it
I see.... I managed to find a manufacturer driver and for whatever reason its not wanting to register with my headset
Its pretty much useless if the manufacturer cant get their apps working correctly
USB headset? Known problem. Don't know of a real fix.
Fix is โฆdon't plug your headset as @brave hawk already said. Which is btw also perfectly correct and not being a smartass
Lol, how cute.
Pushed his luck one too many times.
Mh? Did I miss something again?
He'd received previous warnings
Ah got it. I like being able to read stuff
He anyway never produced anything non crap.
Just as that guy that's spamming . But doing it so rarely that no one notices
brb
Friend of mine is getting "...@CUP Terrains - Core\addons\cup_terrains_ca_animations_dummy.pbo" are not signed by a key accepted by this server. errors when trying to join my server, but others are able to, and we are using CUP Terrains - Core. He has already verified and redownloaded (unsub/resub) the mod. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
yup #channel_invites_list right on the top
Not sure it's an issue with CUP itself because again others are able to join without issue.
check cup terrains - core folder for some rogue leftover files?
verify integrity, check for hdd corruption
usual stuff
Anyone nice here care to help me out possibly?
Ask your question and we will see
Check your RPT files on your server and your loyal machine. The answer is there
And in case you don't know what it is, it's a report/logfile. Google for โarma 3 rpt file locationโ
@buoyant rover
im having issues with my Database and mysql
I'd understand if you wasn't in the Exile Discord but you are, there's a support channel you've been using in there for such issues
Please continue to use it and patiently await a reply
@granite seal You would've gotten help if you asked your question.. Now 12 hours later you still don't have an answer because no one knows your problem
Can someone help me?
I'm having weird texture bugs with the Tigris and nothing really helps to fix it
hard restart, validated arma 3 files and all
I don't know if I can help you. Should I try anyway?
Can you show me that "weird texture bug" screenshot maybe?
What is shooting that? Does it fly above the jet?
Okey... Eh.. Can't help I guess. Never saw something like that ^^
Not aware of one
happens without mods also?
seem like effects are broken somehow
reset video settings to default/autodetect, restart the game and try again
I'm starting to wonder if it's somekind of a LoD issue. Kind of like the flickering LoD switching you can get randomly.
Definetly looks like some low level LOD thing. It's so big so that it's visible in distance.. The tracer
I think itโs blastcore tracers mod thatโs causing it. Havenโt had a chance to test it yet
Thanks everyone for your help!
i've seen this, it's either broken blastcore or outdated ACE3 tracers pbo
Hi All, I have a new instance of Windows 7 new instance of ARMA 3 no mods loaded and I am already getting a fatal exception error. First Error WArning: preNLOD format in object
a3\rocks_f_exp\lavastones\lavastonecluster_small_f.p3d; Second Error The exception unknown software exception (0x0000dead) occured in the application at location 0xfce1a06d.
0x0000DEAD
I suspect the above errors are caused by the really crappy internet we have here in Australia! Seven files failed to load and loaded when validated. Haha.
Yes.. Certainly sounds like corrupted files
Data file too short 'mpmissions/op_mandragora.Altis.pbo'. Expected 295642 B, got 283375 B
any idea what that could mean?
I assume it's a corrupted pbo, right?
I'm getting that whenever I use #mission on the server
Jep, also file corruption. Redownload and reinstallation should fix it
@median imp
I made the mission
and I already tried re-exporting and re-uploading it
it runs just fine when I start it in multiplayer mode from the editor
Delete old exports, save under a new name, close the editor, run the editor again, load the Renamed mission, new export
what a weird bug
But, what if Arma is trying to tell you something?
oh ffs... now somebody is having the "ACRE IS NOT CONNECTED TO TEAMSPEAK!" problem
Use tfar ๐
does anybody know a solution to that other than not starting TS as admin?
I prefer TFAR, but it won't let me talk as zeus
Arma has secret libraries full of gf conversations, it spies on people you know.
so it's not an option
TFAR let's you talk as zeus. TFAR 1.0.
โ
last time I tried it didn't
0.9.12 also let's you talk from Zeus
that was like... 3 months or so ago?
in 0.9.12 you have to be a Curator logic. Not a unit with curator module.
Same in 1.0. Or in 1.0 you can check a checkbox on the Zeus unit in Eden to make it work.
1.0 is on steam. Just search for it
๐
TFAR beta
are there any important changes in how TFAR 1.0 is used? if yes, where can I read about them?
great
now my mission is gone
because acre2
is there some easy way to remove those dependencies from the mission file?
Yes
open the SQM and.. remove them from the Addons array close to the top of the file
in how TFAR is used No. It's the same
open the SQM
I love arma3
for whatever reason it has to save the SQM in binary mode by default
You can use mikeros deRap tool or Arma3Tools CfgConvert
to convert it to text version
[18:48] ๐นDarkWiiPlayer โฅ: for whatever reason it has to save the SQM in binary mode by default
^ you can find this setting in 3den editor options
binary is still default tho @brave hawk ๐
for real ๐ฆ I could have sworn the opposite! dang
i noticed arma uses a lot of swap memory. i was wondering if you get rid of all your virtual memory, what happens.
Crash/3fps bug/won't launch.
One of these. Or maybe the first two combined
is there a way to get virtual memory to physical memory
Uh
virtual memory is physical memory
stored on your hard drive. Which is physical
And stuff that is being used automatically get's transfered into ram
And it has ended up on the drive for a reason
I feel like there is a problem somewhere but we are being asked how to apply your chosen solution.
you could throw more RAM at the problem ๐
well i have 16 gb and only 10 is in use. i guess the real question is why doesnt arma utilize it
Because it doesn't need it?
i got tonnes of mods it just runs slow.
Slow != not enough memory
na obviously not all the time but i figure theres something i should be doing
Less mods. Or better CPU
Or actually profile what's causing the slowness https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Performance_Profiling
cheers ill look into that
in before "a customised "n" framework"....
I'm having a problem where in game animations are freezing or skipping along. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcmowMu60IQ
Disabled mods, had someone else create the mission file (working on their end) and send it to me and it not work, verified game cache via Steam. Any other ideas?
anim names? I'm going to check right now
because maybe these are the "light" version, moves only when camera is seeing the units
I don't even think those are the FPP animations, I know there are alternate ones where it's sort of like a state machine "If you stop moving, move to idle anim", etc
