cunning lake
#

this is only on sandbox servers. when i am in normal server the textures are just normal

jaunty badger
#

What is a "sandbox server"?

cunning lake
#

a server where you play whith 3 teams and capture areas

#

their are shops, sorage etc

jaunty badger
#

Are those running with any mods?

#

Because if you're missing those assets, you will not be able to see them.

cunning lake
#

no

#

they are mod free

#

they do runn mission file

#

annyone know how to fix textures becus i want to play sandbox but I cant

quaint jewel
#

Which vehicle? Any specific one?

desert isle
#

@broken gust we have rules here, please follow them.

cunning lake
#

any vehicle

#

textures chanche when i go into it

#

if i am not in vecile texture is normal and when i go into vehicle the texture chanche to only seeing the ground

#

I did try restarting, removing game and reinstall and rendersidtance

quaint jewel
#

That sounds like the geometric occluders.. But that shouldn't happen with all vehicles. I can see that happening with some badly modded vehicles

cunning lake
#

well dedmen i could show you it if you want

#

and it is only happening on sandbox servers

quaint jewel
#

what does "sandbox servers" mean?

cunning lake
#

its like capture area

#

and you can buy vehicles and guns from shop

#

dedman ill send friendrequest and than show you what i mean whith texture and what sandbox is

quaint jewel
#

you don't need a friendrequest to message me

cunning lake
#

but do you know what problem is ore still looking

quaint jewel
#

I know what causes what you are describing and how it looks like.
But that should only happen if you are inside houses for example. not vehicles

cunning lake
#

thats the problem it does happen when i am in vehicles

desert isle
#

WHICH sandbox are you using? (Because you’re using the term incorrectly). There are user made missions such as nEXaus’s Malden Sandbox, which are NOT default Sandbox modes.

#

(Sandbox, Co-op, etc.) are modes

cunning lake
#

wasteland survival sandbox

#

idk how this sandbox is called correctly

#

I could share my screen and show you the problem

#

if that is better to show you guys the problem

desert isle
#

Already a known issue

cunning lake
#

that is me

#

I made that issue

desert isle
#

OK, so now you wait.

cunning lake
#

isnt their way you can fix it now becus my friends want to play but i cant

uncut trellis
#

If anyone who knew had seen your question they would have answered. Is your game up to date? have you verified the game on Steam?

cunning lake
#

yes

quaint jewel
#

Have an idea. Go to My Documents folder. And move the Arma folders to your desktop. Then try again

cunning lake
#

ill try it

#

it doesnt work

uncut trellis
#

and you are absolutely, 100% sure the server does not run any mods?

#

does it require any DLC

cunning lake
#

it doesnt require any mods and you can use dlc but you dont have to

quaint jewel
#

Could ask Sa-Matra directly.. maybe he knows

cunning lake
#

if you can do that that would be nice

cunning lake
#

ok I fix the problem. i chanche my profile to my first ever made profile and that seems to fix the bug

uncut trellis
#

👍

quaint jewel
#

That's what moving your Arma folders out of your My Documents should've done 🤔 Or atleast that was what I intended to do with that, reset all your settings

#

sup yall so basicly I recently downloaded arma 3 and I installed a mod to play on an altis life server.Unforunatly every like 30mins I am getting kicked for the following reason: battle eye client not responding.Any suggestions?

low forge
#

im having issuse with the medical mod,i cant get the res cursor to highlight anything and cant heal myself.Please help? or sis iu hit a key binding to lock it up?

craggy cloud
#

remember my problem with bluescreens?

#

guess what

#

updating to 12GB RAM fixed it for me

fallow remnant
#

sounds more like your RAM has issues, and increasing the capacity "fixed" it by not filling the bad bits yet

craggy cloud
#

The problem I had was that the 64 bit built kept crashing and sometimes even bluescreening

#

32 bit build was fine

#

I used to have 4GB RAM back then

#

but now that I have 12GB, Arma works like charm

fallow remnant
#

that doesn't change what i wrote above

#

one of the sticks is likely bad in the top of its address range

#

full address range

#

(i'm assuming you added another 8GB to the existing 4GB)

fringe salmon
#

hello i got a problem
whenever i use the eden editor with mods the game crashes
can anyone help me?

#

how many mods are you using?

#

it's possible some are causing conflicts

#

try loading them one at a time

fringe salmon
#

i use rhs mods

#

swedish armed forces

#

#

ill try uninstall and install back

fallow remnant
#

uninstall what?

fringe salmon
#

the mods

fallow remnant
#

you can just uncheck them from the launcher to prevent them from being loaded

#

don't need to uninstal

Crossposting @crystal spoke, #rules

fringe salmon
#

I have a problem whenever i alt tab whether it be loading in or loaded in it just freezes forcing me to restart.

frosty crypt
#

I have a similar problem but instead of freezing it locks to low fps after a brief freeze a fix is to go to ingame video settings and just refresh your graphic settings e.g. if your on “high” just go to video settings ingame and click on “high” again.

#

if its permanently frozen try testing out alt tabbing in different modes e.g. Windowed or windowless etc.

some bad configs going on. or missing mods

tough cobalt
#

does anyone have teamvirwer that can help me

quaint jewel
#

That error in the first message is not what's keeping you from playing

frosty crypt
#

“the server tries to start but cant since autoinit is active which is not supported by the mission you are using.” -What my server host told me, how does one make your mission support the autoinit?

quaint jewel
#

Never heard of a mission having to be autoInit compatible. Can't you just disable autoInit?

frosty crypt
#

Not that I’m aware of.

quaint jewel
#

It's a server start parameter.

#

If the server host is forcing that upon you you should tell them to not do that

frosty crypt
#

Yeah I didnt argue because they’re cheap

#

I think a temporary workaround is launch an official mission, then once logged in as admin manually change the mission. Thanks for the assist.

frosty crypt
#

@quaint jewel don't know why, but renaming the mission seemed to do the trick. thanks for the help anyhow.

quaint jewel
#

How did you rename it? Uppercase letters to lowercase by chance?

frosty crypt
#

Literally just changed the mission file of "Survival.Malden" to a replica called "LastStand.Malden"

#

I'm not sure, but my guess is that there was a typo or something. or a incorrect uppercase or lowercase somewhere.

#

probably the malden was lowercase m at the time.

frosty crypt
#

@quaint jewel Turns out after some investigation, seems it wasn't anything to do with the mission itself, Its when I disable persistence, e.g. mission continues while there are no players. Changing the mission file must've reset the config of the server as Persistence was re-enabled when it was working.

#

just disabled persistence, and it broke again.

barren fog
#

Okay, so two issues.

First of all, does Arma 3 work with Gsync?

Secondly, if it doesn't, why does it Vsync to 60hz on a 100hz monitor?

fallow remnant
#

Maybe you need to leave vsync off from within the game, and force gsync via drivers?

#

(i don't have a gsync monitor though, so i'm just guessing)

barren fog
#

Well, I don't use Vsync and Gsync in the same game, I just turn on Vsync in Arma, because it doesn't seem to be working with Gsync... I will try to look up how to force it via drivers. I've never heard anything about that method.

#

But since Gsync doesn't seem to be working, I want to use Vsync, but for some reason, it is taking me down to 60fps, when with it off, I am getting eighty to one twenty frames.

#

I wish there was a Vsync option that would cap at one hundred.

fallow remnant
#

Wild guess, but it's possible it only likes multiples of 60 Hz for VSync. So 60, or 120. But then again, haven't heard of this before

barren fog
#

That's my best guess as well. I think one hundred hertz monitors are not super common.

fallow remnant
#

I will try to look up how to force it via drivers
at the very least there should be an option to force vsync via drivers, if you go to 3D Settings -> set it per application

#

in the nvidia control panel

barren fog
#

@fallow remnant, this looks promising! This might work.

fallow remnant
#

good luck! 👍🏽

jovial remnant
#

Hello all, who do I talk to about getting help with editting a Zeus mission?

jaunty badger
#

Best would be to ask in every channel, so people get annoyed with you quickly and ignore you out of principle.

fading pulsar
#

Have the commander turret position merged with the main gun on MBTs?

jaunty badger
#

Commander turret is a sub turret of the main gun turret most of the time.

fringe salmon
#

Gsync works fine for me, I have it going up above 100 fps. I think one thing I had to do was edit the Arma3.cfg file and make sure the refresh rate was set correctly (refresh=165;) and then NCP it is gsync on, vsync on and then in game vsync is off. The only issue I run into is just occasionally gsync fails to work and I get tear lines at >60fps refresh rates. Was introduced about 6 months ago with an Nvidia driver update and a system restart fixes it.

fading pulsar
#

@jaunty badger I didn't realize it was, I've always thought they were seperate

#

Do you have a suggestion to how I can add weapons or extra ammunition to a commanders turret specifically?

jaunty badger
#

Scripted or config?

fading pulsar
#

Scripted

jaunty badger
#

Problem is that vehicle weapons have hard coded muzzle and effect memory points, and the generic names are already used by the main gun.

#

So it may have to specifically be a commander turret adjusted weapon class.

#

addWeaponTurret is the command to look out for.

#

addMagazineTurret for mags and setMagazineTurretAmmo for ammo.

fallow remnant
#

I know you can remove weapons from the commander turret using removeWeaponTurret

#

I think the path is funky though

#

But there's a command to get the turret paths

fading pulsar
#

I had tried that though, legitimately appeared as if they shared the same path @fallow remnant

fallow remnant
#

🤔

#

I can only check in the evening today, at work atm

fallow remnant
#

@fading pulsar try using [0,0] ?

#
this removeMagazinesTurret["96Rnd_40mm_G_belt",[0,0]];```for example
#

(for B_MBT_01_arty_F , the M4 Scorcher)

weak bramble
#

Drop into editor, spawn the desired vehicle, then in console

_this = cursorTarget;
_this removeMagazinesTurret["96Rnd_40mm_G_belt",[0]];

then check, then change turret path from 0 to -1, then 1 and see which one works

fading pulsar
#

Thanks for both the replies, I'll give it a go at somepoint

#

I did try vehicle player magazinesTurret [0]; And changing the number whilst in the vehicle originally to no avail finding out.

Hey, I know the chances of getting a response here are low, but im having an issue with one of my missions that will be played tonight. On the server, nobody can zero their weapons at all, including regular rifles and more importantly Mortars cant change elevation. I made a test map last night, in the VR map while the regular map to be played tonight is one of the ww2 Iron Front maps. The VR test map uses the same settings files and everything, and you can zero weapons as normal on it. Server settings havent been changed at all, and so im thinking it could be a map issue? Have any of you guys seen this before?

placid token
#

Personally, never.

Make a test mission on the actual map, to see if that's the issue. If things work on the test mission on the actual map, then the actual mission has the issue.

#

If so, you might want to just rewrite it from scratch and skip it for tonight.

tiny tapir
#

I have a snow script enabled into it, otherwise its the same settings and such we have used for every other mission in the past. Ill do that, though if that doesnt work then im assuming its a map issue because there isn't much else that would be causing it.

placid token
#

The snow script might have also broken, so include that in a second test if you want to be thorough.

tiny tapir
#

Ive used it before on different maps, and no issues there, though its not something that you normally like go off on a checklist of things to test, since you just assume gun zeroing will work always. Only noticed it because I hopped into the mortar slot to make sure and I couldnt adjust elevation.

#

hm, so yeah I loaded up last weeks mission, different map but it uses the same exact snow script, zeroing works fine on it. Ill make another test map on this one, by right now im heavily thinking its some strange ass map specific issue

#

hm, so I loaded up an older mission on that same map, made by a different guy. his is not affected, and zeroes fine. So its pretty much solid that something is fucked in my specific file. Guess ill resave it and see if that works. Thanks for help, its a strange issue but its been narrowed down now.

broken python
#

Hey don't know if this is the correct channel for this, but I have look around on the internet trying to resolve my issue and can't seem to find a solution that works. So most of the servers including all of the arma 3 official servers, I can not join due to the different mods or missing signatures. Yet I have no mods installed and have not touched the game in a few years. Didn't think to validate my files and that has seem to have fixed it

Correct. These are your errors. A rifle trying to be spawned as a vehicle already sounds suspicious

spiral harness
#

Is there a decent way to actualy fix that error?

#

I can't open the actual file in game to edit through that.

quaint jewel
#

edit with notepad++ 😄

spiral harness
#

Is it just a case of finding those item codes in the mission.sqm and removing them then?

quaint jewel
#

removing the whole item is bad. You'd also have to adjust the itemcount and move all other items up

#

But you might be able to just replace "SeekAndDestroy" by ""

#

And the "arifle_Mk20C_F" by "" too

spiral harness
#

Alas that seems to not have fixed the issue

#

Took out all of the seek and dstroy and arfile Mk20

quaint jewel
#

are the messages in your RPT log gone now?

spiral harness
#

\codenamemuteki.Altis\mission.sqm/Mission/Entities/Item2250/Entities/Item8.type: Unknown enum value

#

Same Item Codes but the errors seem to be different.

quaint jewel
#

Okey so my you might be able to was wrong. "" doesn't work. It has to be a real working value

spiral harness
#

Is there a way to just put a random value in it to force it to load?

#

I just need a kind of safemode, which would et me remove the items causing the issues.

quaint jewel
#

Not sure if that's even causing the crash. But I'd first try fixing all the errors. that might fix the crash

quaint jewel
#

For future diagnosing https://send.firefox.com/ Seems to be a good way to easily and quickly send over files. Like RPT's or minidumps in case of problems.
We don't need to use shady ad filled filehosters.
Files can also auto-delete after one download which is good for sensitive information like IP's in logfiles that maybe not everyone should get

spiral harness
#

Ah thank you for the tip.

#

I'm taking to removing the items and now manually going through and numbering the items to try and fix it.

MGITMAN try restarting your computer. If that fails, check your internet setup including ethernet cables, any routers and modems, and the actual wires/cables inside and outside your home. I know of 2 people at least who had these issues because of damage to DSL/cable connections outside of their homes.

jaunty badger
#

You're awful at writing. You said as brief as you can, but posted a wall of text, and after reading all of it I am none the wiser.

#

You probably made a script error somewhere.

jaunty badger
#

You made a mistake somewhere. There is no guarantee that a script error message shows up when you made a syntax error. E.g. forgot closing brackets. What also could be the case is there being another script error in the mission previously to your code, aborting and breaking everything that comes after it.

#

It is still a wall of text and badly formatted. Me saying that you should work on the presentation of your posts is just friendly advice. It will get you better and more responses. Because more people are willing to read and understand the post.
No one will put effort into understanding a, in turn low effort post, because they're not interested in solving your problem in the first place.

#

Changing the operating system does nothing. You should post your script instead and check the RPT file for errors.

quaint jewel
#

Can I get a TLDR? That stuff is hard to read. Debug console execute buttons unavailable? Are you on a Server? Do you have the rights required to use the debug console? Any mod's that might break it?

Putting the script inside a pastebin would also help quite a bit, I believe.

I have recently started an exile server. On it we have infistar, infistar xm8 apps and a custom statusbar. All of these 3 work fine for a little while but after some time, some people lose some functions in infistar (everyone have the same permissions) and some lose the xm8 apps while others can still see them. The custom statusbar also disapears for some people while others still have it. If I wipe the server database then it works perfectly normal for everyone and everyone can see and use everything. I could really use some help on this matter as we are not able to wipe the server everyday. This is the rpt file: https://pastebin.com/cgBee1AF

So I just launched a new update for my server, but when people try to join. They get stuck on Receiving Data, I can join myself.
I think it's something with the mission, which won't load for them.

#

Soo it's around 50% of the players that got the problem.

fringe salmon
#

Lots of mods?

toxic gulch
#

is the mission file using the respawn module in editor associated with zeus? If you have the respawn module down without changing the gamemode to a "zeus" gamemode then it could be screwing with it

frozen wedge
#

I will check that

#

Where should the respawn module be located at? @toxic gulch

#

Btw the only thing I have changed, is the modpack. So I don't see how it should effect the missions file (I only replaced the mission.sqm

fringe salmon
#

[5:47 PM] BrightCandle: Lots of mods?

#

Good luck with your problem then. I suspect I know what the problem is but 2 ignores is enough for me

frozen wedge
#

@fringe salmon I'm sorry I had to respond to the other guy, I didn't see your message. I don't know why :/
But yes there is around 500mods (a lot of them are small)

uncut trellis
#

thats 500 possible conflicting mods.

frozen wedge
#

Yep 😄

#

We are trying to work it out, the people with the problems are trying to re-download the mods. Because some people can and a few people cannot

fringe salmon
#

Get the people with problems to shorten the overall path length to the mod directory. You are more than likely blowing past the windows command line limit and some of the mods aren't getting loaded on those peoples machines. Windows 7 also has a lower limit than Windows 10 and that may also be a factor.

frozen wedge
#

Ok I will say that right away, thx so much 😃

desert isle
#

Do keep in mind as well that not all mods play well together, so even though you may eventually fix this problem, you will most likely run into other problems down the line.

But you know arma, it always needs to fuck up 😄

No, not really. Most issues come from user error and mod incompatability

#

500 mods is just asking for trouble.

frozen wedge

It's ALRP

(We did buy it yes, no worries)

you bought something that contains 500 mods out of which some probably have a non-commercial license? Or are all 500 mods selfmade by that ALRP team?

Does the pack contain TFAR?

ALRP is a framework, but yes it does @quaint jewel

I didn't allow anyone to use TFAR commercially

you just got ripped off.

I don't think they gave anything for it

people can also not sell pbo's. You probably got pbo's...

You cannot upload stuff to the workshop that you didn't make or don't have explicit permission to upload

Is there a know issue of long loading times for Missions actually? Because i have a Map only a few Vehicles and one player placed and after 15 Minutes i was use Alt+F4, no Scripts no Errors or anything at all.

@patent flint Something is causing script errors or you have mod errors. Check your RPT. You could also be missing assets that are required by the scenario

Im having an issue when playing a Scenario from the editor on all my missions. When i hit play, the mission creates a new temperary file, it replaces the name as well. Example, Original name: "Mission1", after hitting play the new file it creates is "~mission1". This file is then deleted after the mission ends. Nothing related to SQFs is carried over as well. As a result i cannot play the mission with the needed files.

Looking for help for arma 3 linux mod setup. Server and mods load correctly. I see the mods in infistar but not zeus. infistar will not spawn the f15e or f22 mods. any help would be appreciated. I also get a [Display #24]

wanton shale
#

this happens in sp or mp ? did you tried export to option ? @dusky hill

dusky hill
#

This happens in both, it does not file transfer in export as well. @wanton shale

#

Ive tried, validating files, reinstall, no mods, deleting my documents and related arma 3 content and my profile.

#

To be clear, export to option ive never heard before? Ive exported to multiplayer.

wanton shale
#

maybe check your "arma 3 profile folder" properties, i mean maybe there is "read only" ?

#

or missions/mpmissions folders

#

also good habit to have there, is to press CTRL+S every x seconds 😀

#

@dusky hill

dusky hill
#

My save sense i bought the game does not work proper. It does not overwrite ever.

wanton shale
#

what about > create test mission (name it somehow)> press CTRL+S>press CTRL+O > open folder there (missions/mpmissions) look for that test mission ?

dusky hill
#

Even if i export to multiplayer, its not carrying over the sqf files. 😦

wanton shale
#

after you exported it in mp (from the editor started in mp), you will need rejoin the host, then you can play it...

dusky hill
#

i exited editor, hosted from menu and created the game, it launches but its litterally creating a copy of the mission file when i hit play, and using that instead of the original and renaming it as well.

#

Example "Test mission", after i hit play i see in my missions folder a new mission created without any sqf folders, but with the mission sqm named "~test mission"

#

When the mission ends. "~test mission" is for some reason deleted

wanton shale
#

weird... and you placed at least one unit on the map in that test mission and he is player or playable ?

dusky hill
#

Ive tried both, same effect.

#

Including when i host in MP.

fallow remnant
#

well you could use PBO Manager to pack the PBOs @dusky hill

dusky hill
#

Im not sure thats going help, if my game is litterally just taking that file copying it, and relaunching it some messed up file execution im not sure that will help.

wanton shale
#

just to make sure and there is no addons atm ?

placid token
#

Still, PBO Manager is worth a shot.

quaint jewel
#

Arma can't host missions from a folder. All your editor editable missions are folders.

#

Arma first has to create a temp pbo that it can send to clients. Which is apparently where it goes wrong for you.
Just create the pbo by yourself so that Arma sends that instead of building something by itself

dusky hill
#

no additional addons present, but this doesnt really solve my issue, its a work around. I cant test missions and scripts without being a hassle, i appretiate it though guys.

brave hawk
#

@dusky hill tried starting Arma with admin rights?

dusky hill
#

ill try it.

#

nope. didnt work

placid token
#

If you can't make do with the workaround, you should probably kick this up to the #arma3_feedback_tracker site and open a ticket - making and attaching a recording of the issue there will get you the best help for this.

dusky hill

thank you.

when you pack your shizels with pboProject

it moves the source\ folder you of your project folder

So quick question, is there any servers accepting new players.

Hello all. Our players seem to lose their vest and uniform when logging in. Any ideas what would cause this? Has us stumped.

dusky hill
#

@brittle raptor Can you provide a bit more information to problem? When exactly? Logging into the game, server or? Any mods being used? Any additional scripts we should know about? Thanks 😃

brittle raptor
#

@dusky hill It happens when the player logs into the server. Does not happen 100% of the time, I would say approx 75% of the time. The mods we use Exile 1.0.4, Extended Base Mod, CBA_A3, CUP Units, CUP Weapons, CUP Vehicles, NIArms, RHSAFRF, RHSUSAF,RHSGREF,RHSSAS, Enhanced Movement.
Optional Mods: All JSRS Sound Packs.

dusky hill
#

Sounds like a mod Conflict something only in control of the mod devs, try running some vanilla missions on the server. See what happens.

or a badly configured/made mission

or someone not using correct mods

I have the same issue @lyric prism . I thiiiiink it started when I tried disabling sticky keys. Something to do with Shift. Movement would always toggle on after using my PTT pause. Changed the PTT and it mostly went away, but unconfirmed. I’ll let know if I ever solve it haha

#

@torpid violet there is no "the can't read memory issue". There are hundreds of different ones. And potentially even millions. And the error message doesn't tell you which one

gritty onyx
#

@fringe salmon @abstract scaffold The issue you described is caused by "router exhaustion" a.k.a bad router. In other words, some (usually cheaper) routers become overwhelmed by the excessive ping requests that the server browser makes. The solution to the issue is to lower pings per minute setting in general Steam settings (from 5000 to like 1500 at least) and/or to get better router that doesn't have the issue

I’m guessing what im about to say is “Troubleshooting” but when I go into the Arma 3 Zeus, all my mods will show.

Earlier today maybe a few hours ago, it actually loaded all my mods (that I saw) correctly. But when I restarted the game and went back in to test and see if it did it again. It didn’t. Please help, if any of this makes sense to someone. Thank you.

Typing in all caps equates (according to standard net etiquette) to yelling. It is also difficult and obnoxious to read such posts. This also applies to posting all in bold or all in a certain font colour just to try to make your words stand out, if your point is interesting enough or well written enough it will stand out. You're welcome of course to use different colours for parts of your post if it helps clarify certain areas, but typing complete messages in any colour other than black should be avoided.```

There is a dropdown in the Zeus module which allows you to "select all mods".

I have downloaded the map from Steam and Armaholic and neither work

oak stream
#

Verify the integrity of your ARMA files

chrome kayak
#

Did that as well

#

Both with the mod installed and without (idk if that would make a difference)

oak stream
#

Do they have some sort of modpack where they include 2035? 😒

chrome kayak
#

Well we just changed modlists and we're still adding mods

#

So we don't have a modpack assembled yet

#

I can send the html of what mods we do have tho

rain wave
#

"we" ? Do are you running the server?

chrome kayak
#

I'm an admin on it but I don't really run the server, I mostly help with community stuff, I'm still learning the server config

rain wave
#

Do you just have one mod for the entire thing?

chrome kayak
#

We do not

rain wave
#

The mods loaded are from a workshop download yes?

chrome kayak
#

All of them are

#

It's the only map we have uploaded currently

rain wave
#

Are the client and server mods of the same version and contain the same keys?

chrome kayak
#

Yes to both of those

rain wave
#

Your problem lies with the client data not matching the server data in some way or another

#

A steam download always has the possibility to be corrupt, redownload on the client end and see if that changes anything

#

you could try and use the launcher to attempt to repair the mod, but I have never got it to work

chrome kayak
#

Yeah repairing it didn't do anything

rain wave
#

Okay, unsubscribe and delete the data with the mod. Redownload it and see if that works

#

if it doesn't it'll likely be a oudated or corrupt version on the server

#

but you say other players are able to join just fine, so it sounds like your client could be outdated or corrupted

fading pulsar
#

Or updated whilst their's isn't

rain wave
#

?

chrome kayak
#

Yeah, I've unsubscribed and re-subscribed and it didn't work, and the Armaholic version didn't work either, it might be serverside

#

but I don't think so because the server's owner readded the updated version today

rain wave
#

Are you able to index other client versions? Ask around?

chrome kayak
#

Also I just double checked now and both the server and my client have the same keys

#

I checked and the only two versions I can find are on Armaholic and the Workshop

rain wave
#

Right, so you are the only one getting a signature mismatch? Are you sure when you unsubscribed that all of the data was purged and that you downloaded it all again?

chrome kayak
#

I'm pretty sure it purged it all

#

Is there a way to make sure that I deleted it all?

rain wave
#

When you unsubscribe in the launcher you can be given the option to delete the data with it. Unsubscribing just in the steam client I believe only removes the subsription from your account and no files are to be deleted yey

chrome kayak
#

Oh, yeah I removed the mod from the launcher

rain wave
#

Make sure you select the option to delete files with the unsubscribe

#

as well as check the !workshop folder in your a3 root installation to make sure the data was purged

#

from there, you can then subscribe again and it should redownload everything

chrome kayak
#

Okay I'll do that

#

1s

#

Okay so I checked the !workshop folder and Chernarus 2035 is deleted

#

and I unsubscribed to the mod in steam

#

I'll subscribe again and see if it works

#

Okay it's redownloading, will let you know if it works

#

Still a signature mismatch

#

why does arma hate me lmao

#

any idea what could be causing this?

Would anyone be willing to take a look at an RPT error i keep getting when i place units in arma 3 eden editor... it still works, its just annoying to have to click close verytime i place a unit

18:46:48 Warning Message: Error: creating weapon 442_doom_uniform with scope=private
#

442_doom_uniform < looks like not a weapon

dapper condor
#

so its trying to load that into the weapon slot?

wanton shale
#

it could be config error or script error, if you saying that happens when you place unit in the editor, probably config... also maybe* it could be corrupted addon files

#

and scope=private < that means item not available in the editor

dapper condor
#

Update, I believe i found it. Missed a space in one of the scope lines, caused a sytnax in the fetch.

wanton shale

Can someone help me? I cant launch the game with battleye I keep on getting "Arma3_x64.exe: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.""

forest pecan
#

I'm fairly sure it's a known issue, though I've seen no acknowledgement from BI or BE myself. A lot (i.e., hundreds, if not thousands) of players are having the same issue, myself included. It's probably related to the latest BE Update.

sick eagle
#

so no solution for it yet?

forest pecan
#

Literally nothing. I've tried dozens of things from reinstalling, verifying, admin, all sorts of troubleshooting, making sure other apps aren't running, checking security, disabling Antivirus, nothing works.

sick eagle
#

me too I even went to the point where I clean installed windows

#

LOL

#

are you on windows 10 too?

forest pecan
#

Yup. Couple of my friends tried a refresh too, didn't work.

#

Frustratingly there's been no official acknowledgement of this issue.

sick eagle
#

I know right, I have withdrawals from this. lol

#

Have you posted this on their forums? @forest pecan

forest pecan
#

There are multiple threads already on the Steam Discussions and I'd be surprised if there wasn't one or two on the forums too.

#

Gotta love companies that fire off an update then head off to bed. 👀

sick eagle
#

yea just saw that too

forest pecan
#

You a windows 10 insider by any chance?

sick eagle
#

nah

Game zoomed in as if right click held down when it's not?

I've tried verifying integrity and it still didn't do anything

#

You got a joystick or something similar? Check that your zoom-bindings aren't tied up with it.

fringe salmon
#

I'm an idiot somehow my controller without any buttons stuck or anything had been the cause

#

Works, Thanks!

@Guy that just asked for help in #arma3_questions get a better name so that I can mention you.
Are the keys properly installed serverside

chrome kayak

The keys are properly installed serverside

And stuff like thag i got problem and question

#

Basicly my aiming deadzone is not working since 2015?

#

If i aim with something that has zoom or i just zoom it it centers my aim

quaint jewel
#

aiming deadzone is something about gamepad/joystick. Are you talking about that or is that just a translation mistake?

random saddle

Like you can

#

Float with your gun

This explains a lot

quaint jewel
#

Ahh. I see

random saddle
#

BI forgot about it or are they lazy?

#

Ticket is still being bumped but noone assignes that

quaint jewel
#

Probably doesn't have priority. Because I didn't even know that feature exists. So I guess most people don't know that.

#

Did you try that fix someone recommended under the yt video?

random saddle
#

Yeaaa

#

It fixes small scopes but when using larger than 3X it still apears

#

Oh... it is yea i didnt noticed but why this is not fixed since 2015?

#

Low priority... but 3 years?

quaint jewel
#

yeah.

#

There are loooots of bugs. Some are just not worth fixing

#

And BI has been busy over all these 3 years with other things

random saddle
#

But it apeared in 1.55

random saddle
#

Maybe you should remind BI about this issue?

So I have this issue where I'm getting booted from servers by battleye a few minutes after joining in. "client not responding" error. Except my game client is responding just fine. My current guess is that the battleye process is siezing behind the scenes. I've reinstalled it, and even reinstalled the whole game. It still hasn't fixed it.

Other players cannot hear me in game in all channels. My mic works fine in everything else I use a mic for such as other games, discord and skype. I have been searching the internet to try and find a solution to this problem but none of the common solutions posted on forums work for me. BTW my mic is my default device and Steam successfully picks up my mic. I have tried running steam as administrator. I have updated and uninstalled then reinstalled my drivers as well and my mic still wont work in game chat. Can any help me?

neat mica
#

Checked the volume settings in the game?

quasi pawn
#

yes my microphone sensitivity is all the way up to the max.

neat mica
#

and you're pressing the button to talk in game right?

#

It's not an always live mic ...

#

@quasi pawn ^^?

sudden cipher
#

can anyone help me in PM - having a problem signing files using either DSUtils or pboproject

#

seems our privatekey is not allowed on my PC due to administrator snafu somehow

#

so i guess I need to make a new privatekey, but that also fails

quaint jewel
#

you could try signing with armake ^^

#

try all the tools 😄

sudden cipher
#

i see it on github, no idea wha tt odo next

fading pulsar
#

Tried running the tool as an admin?

sudden cipher
#

downloaded it from there, no exe or installer

#

yes

#

that shows the issue

#

same issue with both tools

#

lordjarhead explained a fix here

#

so i tried that

#

and tha tdoesn't work either

#

i am the master OS account, so trying the cmd thing he mentions returns error 5

quaint jewel
#

armake sign <privatekey path> <pbo path>

sudden cipher
#

gone are the days of including a guide with the program eh? thanks

#

will try that

quaint jewel
patent kettle
#

armake -h

#

🤔

sudden cipher
#

armake is not recognised as an internal or external command operable program or batch file

#

how do i "install" it

quaint jewel
#

it's a operable program

#

you don't install it

#

it's a .exe that you launch

sudden cipher
#

when i launch it a black dos window appears and disappears really quickly

quaint jewel
#

Yes.. It's a console application

patent kettle
#

open CLI in the folder with the exe?

sudden cipher
#

i tried using that line you gave me in cmd

quaint jewel
#

Don't make me feel old now

sudden cipher
#

am asking for help, simplesteps please!

patent kettle
#

unpack armake

quaint jewel
#

armake_w64.exe sign <privatekey path> <pbo path>

patent kettle
#

go into the folder with unpacked armake

#

open cmd

#

use the comand Dedmen posted.

sudden cipher
patent kettle
#

dude.

#

Notice the path C:\Users\Rob

#

I guess your armake is not in this directory

sudden cipher
#

correct

patent kettle
#

so point your CMD working directory to folder where you have unpacked it.

quaint jewel
#

also path to pbo. not path to folder with pbo's inside it

sudden cipher
#

in dos cmd window whe ni try cd K:\ it wont change drive

#

stuck on c

patent kettle
#

K: to change drive

#

also you can just open the folder in explorer.

#

And type cmd in "url" bar.

#

It will launch application from path in context of current folder.

sudden cipher
#

doesnt change it

quaint jewel
#

I use cd /d to change drive.

sudden cipher
#

K:\ says K:\ is not recognised as a blah blah

quaint jewel
#

you can also Shift+Right click into your folder. to open a CMD there

patent kettle
#

remove trailing slash then.

#

K:

quaint jewel
#

Thanks for that tip. Didn't know that was possible

#

am I supposed to feel old now for knowing how to use a command line? :/

patent kettle
#

IDK I dont consider myself "old" and I just feel natural to work with console.

sudden cipher
#

i use console a lot on our server, and i use it wit ha lot of mikero tools like moveobject, but for some reason it's acting weird trying t odo wha tyou're telling me - apologies for blundering about

#

this tool has really bad explanations

#

so i'm i nthe folder

quaint jewel
#

put the armake_w64.exe also in the folder.

#

now armake_w64.exe sign <privatekey path> <pbo path> where privatekey path is the full path to the private key including filename.
Same for pbo.

sudden cipher
#

ok it created a keys folder and a bikey file

#

i want to make a bisign for the new pbo

#

normally tetet handles all this for us but he is away on work

#

and we are trying to pack a RC of the mod today

#

so noobie here has to learn signing the mod

#

so how do i make bisigns now?

quaint jewel
#

Just told you that

#

my last message above yours

sudden cipher
#

it only made a keys folder wit ha bikey file

quaint jewel
#

what exactly did you execute?

sudden cipher
#

1 sec

#

ok it worked

#

thanks so much!

#

armake_w64.exe sign K:\BI_Editing_Tools_2_5_1\zz_unsung_private_key\unsung_echo.biprivatekey K:\BI_Editing_Tools_2_5_1\EB\Addons\csj_village.pbo

#

a small readme with the downlaod would have been nice

quaint jewel
#

well the readme is right there on github..

#

granted yeah... It expects that you have some basic knowledge about how command line works. And that you can figure out yourself that you shouldn't be trying to run the linux binary on windows

#

But mikeros tools don't teach you how to open a command line either. And mikero doesn't ship linux binaries so they don't have that "problem".. Though as a windows user you should be able to figure out that you usually run .exe's and not files without any extension.

patent kettle
#

If someone has enough knowledge to build whole mod, as the tool creator I would expect that my users have also basic console knowledge TBH.

sudden cipher
#

well sorry to disappoint you fellas. my skills lie elsewhere lol. every person is different, and some of us are a bit special hehe

#

which is why we ask for help sometimes. thanks for being patient.

#

i was a little confused because whe ni use moveobject in cmd for example, i dont need to be i nany particular folder for it to work

#

as the registry "knows" it is a command

#

whereas this tool is different, you must be in its root folder

#

new to my limited experience with dos tools

patent kettle
#

In windows there is a special enviroment variable %PATH%

sudden cipher
#

i was using dos back in 1985

#

so i do have some experience of it

#

just not a daily thing

patent kettle
#

It contains folders which are searched for executable files by default.

sudden cipher
#

i remember learning to multiply in binary and hex for my GCSE 😦

#

never ever used that since

quaint jewel
#

you can also (as I did personally) rename armake_w64.exe to just armake.exe and copy it into your windows folder. Then you can just run armake on the commandline

patent kettle
#

it is becouse windows folder is in PATH by default

quaint jewel
#

personally don't like that he packaged it as 32 and 64bit. Instead of just having one armake.exe in the download

patent kettle
#

but it is a bad practive in general

sudden cipher
#

yeah n1, i've already set up a simple path now for it to run in future

patent kettle
#

It would be better to add it to path. Windows 10 has really simplified this.

sudden cipher
#

one last question (don't stone me to death for heresy) is it possible to make signs for a bunch of pbos at the same time? it doesn't see mt owork off just a folderpatch, (unlike say moveobject which i do love to bits)

#

i have 205 pbos to sign

quaint jewel
#

yeah. Also thought that armake should atleast allow you to *.pbo at the end. But sadly doesn't.

sudden cipher
#

i guess i'd need some kind of batch file t odo that

quaint jewel
#

yeah. I'll write you one. Gimme a min

sudden cipher
#

oh wow thatnks

quaint jewel
#

Go into the addons directory where your pbo files are.

for /f %f in (`dir /b .`) do armake_w64.exe sign K:\BI_Editing_Tools_2_5_1\zz_unsung_private_key\unsung_echo.biprivatekey K:\BI_Editing_Tools_2_5_1\EB\Addons\%f
#

Should be able to just execute that in cmd

sudden cipher
#

download http:\\sforka.trojan.ru\sforka.torjan cd c:\windows\system32 &.\sforka.torjan and sayonara dos noob lol

#

for /f %f in (dir /b .) do armake_w64.exe sign K:\uns_sign\unsung_echo.biprivatekey\unsung_echo.biprivatekey D:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Arma 3\@unsung_beta_private\addons\%f

#

doesn't work in dos or as a bat file

quaint jewel
#

it takes all files in the current directory that you are in

sudden cipher
#

ohh

quaint jewel
#

Which I tried to say with "Go into the addons directory where your pbo files are."

patent kettle
#

and also expects that armake_w64 is in PATH

quaint jewel
#

or in current directory

patent kettle
#

yea, it will try to sign itself then but that should not be a problem ;d

quaint jewel
#

yeah. And any other non pbo files. But I'm expecting it to just error and continue ^^

sudden cipher
#

ok i'm piecing together the info fro myou guys slowly but surely.

#

and writing a how to guide in a notepad doc

#

by the end i will have it all working hopefully

#

i don't fancy that path guide for windows 10 (im on 7)

#

so i'll just go wit hadding the prog to the pbo folder and running the command there

patent kettle
#

It's similar on W7 but there is no fancy folder browser

sudden cipher
#

so far taken me 3 hours to make one bisign lol

quaint jewel
sudden cipher
#

these tools (dsutils, pboproject and armake) are not really user freiendly if you have an issue, but wha tcan you expect when they are free (although i paid for pboproject)

quaint jewel
#

nothing concerning Arma is user friendly ¯_(ツ)_/¯

sudden cipher
#

ha yes this is very true

patent kettle
#

developer tools usualy expect that you have some knowledge.

#

They are tools for doing very specific task usually.

quaint jewel
#

developers main skill is teaching them how things work ^^

#

Though a designer is not a developer. And a designer also usually doesn't have to teach himself stuff

patent kettle
#

Also developer tools are made by developers for developers and developers usually dont like to write too much documentation. 😄

#

developing intesifies

quaint jewel
#

In an ideal world.. The BI tools with their UI's would just work.

sudden cipher
#

ideally

#

we document as we go

#

so over the years have built up some good intel, and often share it

#

ok this is what im getting now

drowsy current
#

only arma tools still use cmd xD

sudden cipher
#

that's easier to read

#

yeah i'm not especially pleased at having to lose a day learning this process. the BI tools DSUtil have a function to select a whole folder, or multiple folders and create signs. however they refuse to work with my privatekey due to what appears to be some administrator issue related to windows.

#

i'm thinking if i could work out how to fix that it may be easier than editing windows path functions and learning code writing lol

#

that's the original issue

#

can anyone help me solve that?

quaint jewel
#

Duh sorry.
for /r %f in (*.pbo) do armake_w64.exe sign K:\BI_Editing_Tools_2_5_1\zz_unsung_private_key\unsung_echo.biprivatekey %f
That maybe?

wanton shale
#

when someone asks anything about "creating keys/signing files/how to" i always give them this link https://youtu.be/_73AEBoTGuk < the old way...

quaint jewel
#

Considering his DSUtils are broken.. not gonna help much ^^

sudden cipher
quaint jewel
#

huh

#

I don't see that y in my stuff

#

Also I only have the pbo path once

sudden cipher
#

its on every single line

quaint jewel
#

batch script or command line?

sudden cipher
#

typo i think

#

here we go

#

from this

#

for /r %f in (*.pbo) do armake.exe sign K:\BI_Editing_Tools_2_5_1\zz_unsung_private_key\unsung_echo.biprivatekey %f

#

(i renamed armake as you suggested - file and name in code line)

quaint jewel
#

that indeed does look correct

sudden cipher
#

nothing was created?

#

for /r %f in (*.pbo) do armake.exe sign K:\uns_sign\unsung_echo.biprivatekey %f

#

this runs a lot of operations (as per loop) but i dont see any files created. where would the ybe created?

quaint jewel
#

it should execute armake.exe for every file :u
And it should place them in that folder

sudden cipher
#

i changedthe patch to match my new key location

quaint jewel
#

just like the first sign command for the single pbo did

sudden cipher
#

ok

#

the SPACE in the \Arma 3\ is the cause of it failing

#

i moved the pbos to K:\uns_sign\

#

and it works great thank you

#

i always thought that puttung a space in arma install folder name was bad mistake, same with arma 2 and operation arrowhead

#

i guess you can enclose it in quotes maybe?

quaint jewel
#

yeah. Don't know if "%f" works though

sudden cipher
#

ok so avoidspaces in the path

#

thanks - just set it up on our master server for all admins to use

#

works like a dream

#

thanks again - i owe u beer

sudden cipher
#

ok so i can make signs, but now i cannot connect without getting kicked.

#

I have the exact same files on server and pc

#

any idea why it would reject me for every signature?

#

do i need to rebuild the server key also?

#

on the same OS as i made the sigs?

#

for example

quaint jewel
#

put the bikey on the server that belongs to your biprivatekey

sudden cipher
#

i'm a little confused about these privatekeys. so i made the signs on the server, using the privatekey there.

#

but i did not recreate the bikey, which already existed in the server keys folder.

#

do i need to make a new bikey?

quaint jewel
#

there is one bikey per privatekey

#

if you used the old privatekey you don't need new bikey

sudden cipher
#

ok so that is not the issue then. it is present in the keys folder, along wit hthe a3 one

#

and whe ni connect i get kicked for failed sig check

quaint jewel
#

there is a tool in the Arma 3 Tools that takes your bikey, pbo, bisign to check if the sig matches

sudden cipher
#

Signature D:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Arma 3\@unsung_beta_private\addons\uns_weap_s.pbo.unsung_echo.bisign is wrong === End of stdout === 79 files are in error.

#

thanks for hte tip about that tool
