Not sure where to put this but I am trying to make a beret mod with the config I have attached, it shows in the virtual arsenal list but doesn't have a model/texture when you select it https://hastebin.com/rejecuqova.cpp

wanton shale Aug 13, 2018, 5:39 PM

#arma3_config < better place for getting the right answers about the configs

hey i have a question cuz im dumb, can someone help?

uncut trellis Aug 14, 2018, 11:59 PM

#

not if you dont ask the question

limber hull Aug 15, 2018, 9:40 AM

#

hey can somebody help me out, pboproject won't crunch anything and when i press view outputs it sends me to an empty temp folder

quaint jewel Aug 15, 2018, 9:41 AM

#

does the pboproject console say anything?

limber hull Aug 15, 2018, 9:42 AM

#

it says file paths must/be/lower/case

#

yet again they are

#

all lowercase

quaint jewel Aug 15, 2018, 9:43 AM

#

also lowercase in your configs?

#

I don't get why they must be lowercase.. In general they don't have to be

limber hull Aug 15, 2018, 9:43 AM

#

Here Dedmen I have a screenshot of my errors

#

https://gyazo.com/10541eeb9ff094f5db6e301472db7f58

quaint jewel Aug 15, 2018, 9:44 AM

#

Well you should grab your glasses then

#

New_Shoreham is NOT lowercase.

limber hull Aug 15, 2018, 9:44 AM

#

you said in general they don't have to be

#

..

quaint jewel Aug 15, 2018, 9:44 AM

#

yes.

#

But Mikeros tools do whatever they want

#

And if you want to pack using his tools you have to obey

#

also there is another error at the bottom that you probably shouldn't just ignore

limber hull Aug 15, 2018, 9:57 AM

#

yeah i fixed that error, thank you. another one popping up now saying invalid file :/

#

dang tools

uncut trellis Aug 15, 2018, 10:06 AM

#

in surface configs they need to be all lower case for them to work

#

not Mikeros madness, its Arma thing

quaint jewel Aug 15, 2018, 10:08 AM

#

Maybe Mikero should explain why these specific names need to be lowercase in this specific case. instead of "MAKE EVERYTHING LOWERCASE!!!!111!11!"
Like.. How about "ERROR: in surface configs all paths need to be lowercase." ?
Educate people what's wrong. Instead of just telling them "You're doing it wrong!!!!"
¯_(ツ)_/¯

limber hull Aug 15, 2018, 10:08 AM

#

the lowercase error has been resolved now. i'm getting an invalid file error yet again its in templatelibs and i got the .pbo for the mod

#

:/

quaint jewel Aug 15, 2018, 10:09 AM

#

And... Is the file actually invalid or not? did you check?

uncut trellis Aug 15, 2018, 10:09 AM

#

or the paths are messed up if its unpacked wrong

#

@limber hull more a #arma3_terrain discussion though

#

tip for the next time

uncut trellis Aug 15, 2018, 10:31 AM

#

@quaint jewel dont remember if Mikero or anyone knows what the technical reason was why the surface configs needed to be lowercase but that is the case as they just do not work together otherwise.

quaint jewel Aug 15, 2018, 10:32 AM

#

Yeah. That's good to know. It's just sad that the error message can't just tell you what the actual problem is

spark shale Aug 16, 2018, 6:24 AM

#

So my publishing tool is in a frozen state with it still trying to connect to steam

#

I have re-installed both the tools and the game, and no luck :\

#

Is there any alternative to uploading my mod update?

uhm, so i can't get an error message window to go away

I play on a server where task force radio is used and the majority of our playerbase can use it without a problem however some people are having the problem that they can talk for a few sentences then they just stop transmitting and when you look in teamspeak they are no longer in the channel and have to restart teamspeak, i was wondering if anyone else has had this problem before and if so how to fix it

we have all updated our teamspeaks to the latest patch

well according to that it is teamspeaks issue

fallow remnant Aug 17, 2018, 11:49 PM

then go back to not latest patch

hoary jungle Aug 17, 2018, 11:50 PM

thats about 3.2.0 im currently on 3.2.1

uncut trellis Aug 17, 2018, 11:50 PM

well it is possible they did not fix the problem

ace rhs compat files outdated?

uncut trellis Aug 17, 2018, 11:59 PM

#

where are you downloading them? and possibly, RHS got a big update not long ago

fast tide Aug 17, 2018, 11:59 PM

#

just the workshop files for client, do you perhaps know if they added the compat files to the rhs mods

uncut trellis Aug 18, 2018, 12:00 AM

#

probably not

#

I would guess they focus on their own development

fast tide Aug 18, 2018, 12:02 AM

#

yikes thats gonna be some server issues

uncut trellis Aug 18, 2018, 12:02 AM

#

or who were you talking about? I assumed the RHS crew

fast tide Aug 18, 2018, 12:03 AM

#

yeah i was

#

guess i have to wait and see for a bit , thx for the info

uncut trellis Aug 18, 2018, 12:05 AM

yeah I dont think the RHS crew have anything to do with thte compatibility mods

#

theyre independent projects

Hey guys, I've made two respawn points in the EDEN editor (respawn_west1 and respawn_west2 as variables). When I'm playing the mission in MP, there are four respawn points that come up (the two i made + NE of Ekali and near military. I only have two respawn points, anyone here that knows how I can fix this?

quaint jewel Aug 18, 2018, 9:46 AM

#

@hoary jungle Like.. Use your eyes. 3.2.1 does that contain a 3.2? yes? It does? WOAH!
You experience the exact same symptoms as what's described there. And still doubt that it could be that problem? Man..

#

@fast tide no the RHS compats are not outdated.

#

@fringe salmon NO. I don't know why all of the sudden I get like 5 messages every day of people telling me to fix TFAR for mac

wanton shale Aug 18, 2018, 10:38 AM

right click on your marker position > Log > Copy position to clipboard

//--- file: initPlayerLocal.sqf
private _pos = [player, <paste here your coordinates>, "Position name"] call BIS_fnc_addRespawnPosition;
```the same for second marker and xx marker, you can delete those respawn markers after that ^...
@marble jewel

#

and congrats, you just discovered the hidden feature with markers duplicates 😃

marble jewel Aug 18, 2018, 10:56 AM

#

Haha yeah, the illustrious hidden feature 😄

#

So just to clarify, this is my first scenario, I'm to copy the location and make a .sqf file with those in the root mission folder?

wanton shale Aug 18, 2018, 10:56 AM

#

yep

marble jewel Aug 18, 2018, 11:00 AM

#

Thank you @wanton shale 😄

wanton shale Aug 18, 2018, 11:06 AM

#

np

marble jewel Aug 18, 2018, 11:07 AM

#

So I just tested it out, i made the file and entered the coordinates, but the respawn points doesnt come up in MP 😦

wanton shale Aug 18, 2018, 11:08 AM

#

name of that file ?

marble jewel Aug 18, 2018, 11:09 AM

Hey, one of my friends has this problem, when he joins a server, he can stays on it like ten secs, before getting kicked out of the game, with the reason : 'signature check timed out', we have been trying a lot of stuff to "fix" it during these last 5 days, anyone got a tip for that kind of situation?

@quaint jewel im getting an error message about pbos being outdated

update them then

#

I guess ACE compats?

fast tide Aug 18, 2018, 11:45 PM

yes the ace compats

quaint jewel Aug 18, 2018, 11:45 PM

where exactly? links to the steam items?

yeah these are the official ones

#

did you try unsubscribing, deleting all files and then resubscribing?

#

probably Steam is just messing up

#

Are all of these shown as outdated?

fast tide Aug 18, 2018, 11:49 PM

yeah did that

#

yeah

quaint jewel Aug 18, 2018, 11:49 PM

You can also get them from the official github https://github.com/acemod/ACE3/releases

quaint jewel Aug 18, 2018, 11:53 PM

#

Okey no forget that

#

the 3 at the end confused me.. I don't know why that's there. I guess for the 3 in ACE3. But I don't see any practical purpose for it to exist. There are no RHS USF compats for any other ace version

Hey. Has anyone here had a multiplayer bug where if a Zeus starts remote controlling while a player helicopter is slingloading, the sling suddenly detaches?

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:26 PM

#

@worn glen I wouldn't call this a bug, as the unit controlling the sling releases controls. Which includes the sling and the stick.

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:34 PM

#

Nono, I mean as in the player loses his sling

#

It doesn't matter which unit is being remote controlled

#

The player loses the sling

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:35 PM

#

Which player ?? Give me a scenario in which this occurs.

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

Multiplayer game on our server

#

Player flying a ghosthawk slingloads a crate

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

No, please explain to me who what where why when

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

Starts lfying it

#

That is what I am doing, Explaining how this happens

wise barn Aug 19, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

Because zeus is taking over all conteolling. For that to work all controls are released and ended, and newly added to the remote player, in this case zeus.

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

@wise barn Included those of player?

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

No, you are telling me what the player is doing

#

give me instructions to reproduce

wise barn Aug 19, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

Yes

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

#

That was what I am doing

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

No patience

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

Multiplayer server with 2+ servers. (well our multiplayer server thus far)

wise barn Aug 19, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

No bug, but engine limitation i'd guess

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:38 PM

#

One player is zeus

#

One player is helicopter pilot of helicopter of choice

#

Helicopter pilot slindloads a slingloadbale object of choice (so far happened with both crates and vics)

#

Helicopter pilot lifts said slingloadable object

#

Zeus remote controls an AI unit/ceases to remote control an AI unit (both situations work)

#

Slingloadble object detaches

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:40 PM

#

Make a work around, add a curator EH and re attach evetything after entry

#

Easy peasy

wise barn Aug 19, 2018, 6:40 PM

#

Like i said... engine limitation. All actions get canceled due control transfer. No bug

#

@tropic yarrow
Or that

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:40 PM

#

@tropic yarrow EH? I don't get the jargon

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

Event Handler

wise barn Aug 19, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

e.g.: scrip modding

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

Ah

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

@wise barn Well said, but for some they'd rather have something than be explained that it cannot be so

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:42 PM

#

So check if Zeus enters/leaves remote control via Event Handler, check if anyone inside a vehicle has anything slingloaded, get vehicle slingloading, get object being slingloaded, reattach sling via command?

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:43 PM

#

Yessir

worn glen Aug 19, 2018, 6:43 PM

#

#

I'll have to foward that to someone in my community better versend in scripting, sounds easy way to remove frames if done wrong.

Welcome to arma hell

#

tropic yarrow Aug 19, 2018, 6:45 PM

#

It may be a little janky as it might drop and then suddenly reattach. Possibly causing it to bounce or swing. That would be the case if the setter command doesn't already force the position when being attached. No, EH's are engine based iirc, plus everything you do inside the event hhandler should be a one time deal insteaf of a loop

so it IS my 7.1 on usb that creates issue

It was talked about fixes like installing the 32/64 bit of their software.
Might very well be only logitech usb headsets 🤔

mellow spear Aug 20, 2018, 2:24 PM

#

7.1 enable/disable has to be handled by 3rd party app since Windows doesn't support that

wise barn Aug 20, 2018, 2:24 PM

other headsets, too

Have you updated the logitech software?

devout tangle Aug 20, 2018, 2:26 PM

nods

mellow spear Aug 20, 2018, 2:26 PM

#

no idea then

#

Arma3 shouldn't be doing anything other then sending all this data through Windows

devout tangle Aug 20, 2018, 2:27 PM

#

there are miscomunication between some 3party sound apps and Arma, is what im starting to believe , escecially usb ones

#

and noone wants to fix it

#

the work around is using a 3.5mm cable , but thats dull for a wireless headset

#

i mean while playing i dont need to move, but anytime else its so nice to just roam around freely

mellow spear Aug 20, 2018, 2:30 PM

#

I had Logitech G930 before my corsair and never had a problem with Arma3

#

it could be something new with Win10

#

but I was using Win10

#

i heard something about a creator update fucking it up for alot of people

fallow remnant Aug 20, 2018, 2:37 PM

#

Creator update fucked up the precedence of privacy settings related to the mic, at least. You have to enable global mic permissions from the privacy settings page, otherwise nothing can use it (not even the system itself).

devout tangle Aug 20, 2018, 2:41 PM

#

privacy settings where? my headset works well everywhere else tho

mellow spear Aug 20, 2018, 2:41 PM

#

generally privacy settings only apply to UWP apps of which Arma is not

fallow remnant Aug 20, 2018, 3:31 PM

#

@mellow spear that is not true anymore - not for the mic at least

#

@devout tangle just the privacy settings in windows. the settings "app". but yeah if it's just arma then probably unrelated

mellow spear Aug 20, 2018, 3:32 PM

Hi, i have this really annoying problem atm. Steam threw a fit and is now redownloading 59gb of Workshop mods, the problem here is that they're already installed under !Workshop. Tried verifying game cache, twice. Cant even run the launcher to use local mods for playing because steam is "Updating arma". I really don't want to wait for it to download 59gb, when i already have them downloaded. Anyone know a fix?

quaint jewel Aug 20, 2018, 6:10 PM

#

The fix is not using Steam

#

it does that from time to time

solemn birch Aug 20, 2018, 6:14 PM

#

that sucks

solemn birch Aug 20, 2018, 6:56 PM

#

found a way to bypass, open up the arma 3 install folder and just launch the arma3launcher.exe . If you just launch the "arma3.exe" you will launch unmodded. It will still resume download when you close the game - this is just for opening it

strong steeple Aug 20, 2018, 7:48 PM

then subscribe to the ones you want back

fallow remnant Aug 20, 2018, 10:36 PM

@mellow spear m8 that's all cool and all, but post creators update the mic privacy setting overrides win32 stuff as well. You need to turn global access on, otherwise not even the system can use the mic. I'm not talking about per app control, i know that's only for the new whizzbang store apps.

@quaint jewel what a coincidence I just came here because I saw an answer of yours in Armadev Reddit

#

"Biggest performance boost with x64 you can do is not to mess with any of the performance startup switches. Uncheck them all and let Arma3 attempt to determine the best settings. They have done a ton of work and any -exthread -enableHT and such are just limiting the engine with little gain."

#

Does that apply to -maxmem -maxvram and -hugePages ? should I leave -malloc blank? I'm just using system so it should make no difference as it's the default

#

NVM it wasn't your answer, but I just read an answer of yours in other place...

quaint jewel Aug 22, 2018, 6:44 AM

#

I'm literally almost everywhere 😄

#

not to mess with any of the performance startup switches. Uncheck them all and let Arma3 attempt to determine the best settings That's correct though.

stuck ether Aug 22, 2018, 6:45 AM

#

It was in the bi forum perf thread xD

quaint jewel Aug 22, 2018, 6:45 AM

#

-maxvram is the worst of them all. It either does nothing. Or it limits you to 2GB of VRAM. Even if you enter 8GB, it still limits you to 2GB. If you leave the parameter away Arma will autodetect and use what it can. It's just a dump parameter

#

-maxMem is only useful if you want to intentionally limit the game

#

-malloc could make a difference yes. There are currently some new allocators being tested in #perf_prof_branch channel

Sounds like your profile files are read-only or corrupted.
If Arma can't save your profile it can't remember that you are not new.

In your My Documents folder there is a Arma 3 folder with your profile inside it

You just need to untick the read-only checkmark to make it writeable

Lately I've been having some performance issues with Arma and other things more generally that has started to get out of hand

I suspect it's time for an upgrade, but I'm not entirely positive yet what needs upgrading

#

Main symptom has been just how long it has been taking to start Arma, as well as some other games

I'll click launch and after the small loading splash window goes away, it sits on the desktop seemingly idle for a good five minutes or so before it starts the game

your server admin should know what mods you use

Gotcha, so what would I do to fix the error? Uninstall them and then reinstall them?

wise barn Aug 23, 2018, 9:48 PM

you could go on a manual search in your mod folders to rule out what mod it is exactly. open your mod folders and look for PBOs with a sz_ prefix

than delete this mod and redownload it

Understood, will see what I can do

wise barn Aug 23, 2018, 9:49 PM

it could also be, that the server admin just forgot to add it to the collection?

chrome kayak Aug 23, 2018, 9:50 PM

I don't think so, it worked a couple days ago so I think that it might be on my end

Seems like the issue was Chernarus 2035

 this is the "Additional details" part of a recurring issue regarding my arma3 server program. It goes into an unresponsive state for reasons that i can only see as a memory access violation. This is the rpt line where it goes wrong: `Exception code: C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at 769A13C0` This is the full rpt (error occurs at line 2757): https://pastebin.com/HfxcuTWY Others have hypothesised that arma is running out of memory. I see in the resource monitor that it is only allocated 2gb. Can i force this up using -maxmem? Does `64-bit Windows + 32-bit game: 3071` still apply as a maximum amount of memory? does vram matter in a server instance

Does anyone know how to solve "Battleye Bad Service Version" ? I'm helping a friend, he already re-installed the game via steam, manually used the uninstall_battleye.bat and install_battleye.bat in the arma 3/battleye folder. This did not help.

#

I also told him to disable the service, restart his pc, run steam with admin privs and then start the game. The battleye log messages indicate that it's successfully installed, but the arma 3 server rejects him.

steam does that sometimes

#

you could try copying them out of the workshop storage folder and restarting steam

#

then shutting down steam and copying them back into their place and starting steam again

#

its not the end of the world though

Is there a more detailed explanation?

Depends entirely on a config that specific server has setup

Restart Arma and try again. May have something in uiNamespace from another mission/mod

any way to increase performance in KOTH infantry?

uncut trellis Sep 2, 2018, 12:05 PM

#

lowest settings dont always mean best performance. What kind of fps do you get now?

charred wigeon Sep 2, 2018, 12:15 PM

#

@uncut trellis usually i get 30-40 fps, sometimes higher, i dont play a lot of multiplayer, only with friend zeus or liberation, so in liberation when there is a lot of A.I. i start getting freezes, but probably that's because of the scripts

#

i also play somewhere half view distance and object view distance

uncut trellis Sep 2, 2018, 12:32 PM

#

whats half view distance?

desert isle Sep 2, 2018, 12:35 PM

middle of the slider maybe?

charred wigeon Sep 2, 2018, 12:35 PM

#

yes, middle

quaint jewel Sep 2, 2018, 12:35 PM

#

already playing on lowest Very bad idea. Setting your settings to low moves a lot of stuff from the GPU to the CPU

#

and you are already CPU bottlenecked

#

you want to move as much as you can over to your GPU

charred wigeon Sep 2, 2018, 12:38 PM

#

@quaint jewel i played on standart

#

before

quaint jewel Sep 2, 2018, 12:38 PM

usually i get 30-40 fps That sounds awesome... I barely get 30

charred wigeon Sep 2, 2018, 12:38 PM

#

haha

#

that's in altis/stratis/malden

#

in tanoa it goes lower

#

im pretty happy with my current performance though

#

but if i set any graphic settings to medium my fps drops

desert isle Sep 2, 2018, 12:39 PM

#

then dont do that

#

Personally, I disable PiP

#

its gives me a consistent +10fps

charred wigeon Sep 2, 2018, 12:54 PM

#

@desert isle yeah it's off

uncut trellis Sep 2, 2018, 1:00 PM

middle of the slider would be 6km viewdistance?

#

thats a lot if you dont have high end machine

charred wigeon Sep 2, 2018, 1:25 PM

#

@uncut trellis well it's somewhere around half

#

the object is a bit smaller

uncut trellis Sep 2, 2018, 1:26 PM

#

have you tested with lower view distances?

#

and do you have a high end machine?

charred wigeon Sep 2, 2018, 1:28 PM

#

@uncut trellis no, view distance doesnt affect the performance for me a lot unless i crank it up really high

native iris Sep 2, 2018, 3:26 PM

@charred wigeon Normally it should

uncut trellis Sep 2, 2018, 3:28 PM

@placid token I'm not able to click to verify integrity of game files

placid token Sep 2, 2018, 10:32 PM

#

@worthy mason then reinstalling seems like a good idea. When you moved your ArmA folder, did you move it properly through Move Install Folder in the properties window? Not doing that might have caused this.

worthy mason Sep 2, 2018, 10:35 PM

#

@placid token No just copy and paste

placid token Sep 2, 2018, 10:36 PM

I'm having trouble trying to get the Antistasi mission working with ACE, but with the medical system disabled. I used addon options to disable all the medical system and menu, and apparently according to the game, if it doesnt detect the medical system as active it'll revert to a default revive system, but when i get shot it's an immediate death instead of a revive system. It's kind of annoying cause I want to use every ACE feature, except the medical system, but it refuses to work correctly.
If it affects this issue, I'd also like to clarify that i'm using the RHS mods + patches for ACE with this mod setup

#

Anyone have experience with this?

fringe salmon Sep 6, 2018, 8:10 AM

#

I don't know the detection works but there is an antistasi compatible ACE (wotp_ace3) that you can use that disables the bits that it doesn't work with. Having the actual PBOs removed as it does may be the only way to make it work.

I guess my room mates pc is too ‘new’ and ARMA is an unstable game in general. So I had to manually turn on hyper threading and memory allocation in the launcher (settings).

turning on memory allocation makes no sense. You mean you switched the memory allocator to a different one?

Hey gentleman, i got a problem here ive spent about a whole day and a 1/2 trying to fix.......

#

When going into 1st person mode, my gun sounds almost likke its silenced....yet in 3rd person it runs fine.

#

I unsubscribed from all mods, ran it vanilla and its still not working. I have only tried this in the Antistasi mod, since thats where the problem started. I did not check in KOTH which I should have done. I am currently reinstalling ARMA to try that. In the past couple of days I unloaded and re-loaded a good amount of MODS. Im thinking that could have screwed it up. I also heard tales of BARBALOSI coming back and screwing with the antistasi mod. A

#

Any clues?

#

Also @upper falcon try verifying the integrity of your ARMA game cache. That might fix it.

Guys - anyone any idea why the AI in vehicles deploy into wedge despite having everything selected for column? They set off in column (2 vics) then after the first bend, they switch to Wedge. This then continues to happen even after i switch them back with zeus before eventually staying in column. AI drivers a grouped together and have disabled Target an Autocombat. Also, its an empty map, no target actually making them aware that they're being engaged

dont generate shadows on lightmap

#

and also thse points are pooped if they cast that much shadow

#

in general you should render just a little hint of shadow on the satellite texture

#

if any at all

#

because its a static shadow that does not look good when the in game sun moves

#

also why do you have so old version of L3DT? 😄 Should always use the latest one to benefit from fixes

also terrain questions are better asked on #arma3_terrain

Trying to put logged Admin Zeus into a multiplayer mission . When the server loads we get an error that doesn't allow the server to fully run. Followed Set Owner to #adminLogged
Uncheck Forced Interface to set up a admin Zeus. The error we get is No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgPatches/a3rp_NoahPierce_Uniforms.units'. Any suggestions? We don't know where this file is and don't have anyone with these uniforms that we can find.

gritty crypt Sep 10, 2018, 4:39 PM

You probably copied over a mission sqm/sqf without copying the missions dependencies. That said "a3rp" is the Arma 3 Roleplay server, and it kindddaaaaaa sounds like you might be trying to mess with their mission file.

lime sapphire Sep 10, 2018, 4:43 PM

We built our own, I'm wondering if one of the mods we got off the workshop has their stuff in it.

Nothing seems to break until Zues is put in though.

You probably copied over a mission sqm/sqf without copying the missions dependencies.
don't see how this would be possible considering dependencies are listed and referenced from the mission.sqm

without using the right mods he probably meant

if he wasn't using the right mods then there would likely be a dependency error and the mission would probably fail to load

#

vanilla map no issues.

#

so you have a3rp stuff? But you said I have no a3rp pbo at all

lime sapphire Sep 10, 2018, 6:36 PM

#

no pbo showing for it. But changing the map and dropping the same set up we had on that map the error goes away

quaint jewel Sep 10, 2018, 6:37 PM

#

Did you ask the author of that map?

lime sapphire Sep 10, 2018, 6:39 PM

#

We tried messaging them. Haven't heard back it's been a couple weeks. Assuming he's no longer around. We will move on. Sorry to bug but I was getting burned out looking. Finally with out thinking about the a3rp being a rp mod someone sparked my mind and figured I'd give a go at map change.

There is no direct connection between stuttering and the CPU

You can reduce some settings like terrain and textures to medium

desert isle Sep 17, 2018, 1:57 PM

#

Its literally the "G" in LGBT

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

this is being took so far, I'm not gonna argue though, I'm sorry again in this situation

#

yet saying that you should have banned me is way too far just saying

quaint jewel Sep 17, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

Who said that? I can't see it ^^

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 1:58 PM

#

next time we'll take it in private to keep it SFW

#

DedmenToday at 4:54 PM
I'd have already swung the hammer at that one

desert isle Sep 17, 2018, 1:59 PM

#

or just follow the rules

#

the rules are easier to follow

quaint jewel Sep 17, 2018, 1:59 PM

#

Never told anyone to ban you.
Just said i would've banned you. Not said that anybody should do anything

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 2:00 PM

#

I didn't know 'fag' towards a friend is called as hate speech. Feels like you guys are against me while I'm the one that always tries to be on your side as long I never want to appeal as a jerk

I'm sorry about it.

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 2:02 PM

oh

#

Done.

desert isle Sep 17, 2018, 2:03 PM

#

Thank you.

@fringe salmon the cpu is doing the calculations of all thr A.I. shit happening, and everything else that has nothing to do with GPU. Also the graphics are maintained by GPU

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 6:23 PM

#

Does anybody know why my Object builder doesnt want to work: Ok so i open ArmA 3 tools and i try to open object builder but it doesnt want to open it just shuts down my arma 3 tools

#

any tips of what i can do?

quaint jewel Sep 17, 2018, 6:29 PM

#

have you tried opening it directly, manually?

#

and not over the tools choose UI thingy

uncut trellis Sep 17, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

https://pmc.editing.wiki/doku.php?id=arma3:tools

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

yep

#

tried it several times

uncut trellis Sep 17, 2018, 6:30 PM

#

I would suggest you follow these steps to set up the tools

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 6:31 PM

#

aight will do

#

ok i got it to work thank you @quaint jewel and @uncut trellis

fringe salmon Sep 17, 2018, 11:00 PM

#

Oh god, what have I started

desert isle Sep 17, 2018, 11:13 PM

#

yup

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 2:40 PM

#

Guys, might need a bit assistance over here: which video settings are fully onto CPU's work so I can know to lower them as my CPU isn't great

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 2:48 PM

#

object quality

#

object view distance

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 2:55 PM

#

nothing regarding graphics such as shadows? @fallow remnant

#

sorry, I'm really not into those

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 2:56 PM

#

i've heard that if you turn them down low then they become CPU dependent

#

but otherwise not

#

oh, and particles are CPU dependent too

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 2:56 PM

#

good to know, because I'm getting a bottleneck sometimes

#

with a gtx 1060 6gb and a i5-4590

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 2:57 PM

#

yeah that's kinda unavoidable.

#

overclock it to 4.5 GHz, should help 😄

#

oh wait, it's a non-K

#

nvm

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 2:57 PM

#

so what graphic settings i should turn up to make my GPU being more stressed? everything except object quality, object view distance and particles?

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 2:57 PM

#

Yeah

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 2:58 PM

#

by object quality you mean texture? or there's actually something called object quality

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 2:58 PM

#

yeah it's called "objects" or something

#

Texture hits memory

#

(GPU's memory, iirc)

#

(so you should be fine there, but it may result in more reads from the disk)

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 2:58 PM

#

well I got 6gb vram

#

its pretty fine

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 2:59 PM

#

I think ideally let it auto-detect settings and adjust from there

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 3:00 PM

#

alright 😛 also, is there anyway to make it load everything as I join the server except loading as I advance?

#

because I would prefer like 1 min of lag rather stutter while playing

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 3:02 PM

#

not that i know of

#

it's an engine level thing

#

you could try enabling large memory pages from the launcher settings

#

but yeah, get an SSD

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 3:06 PM

#

already getting one but im just saving to buy a 512 gb one

#

so i can use it for more things

#

again, I don't have any problems right now, its fully playable and its fully enjoyable, just asking if i can improve my performance

#

Thank you for your help

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 3:55 PM

#

cheers 😄

blissful bramble Sep 18, 2018, 4:10 PM

#

BIS added GPU shadowbuffer to the low setting too. It no longer switches entirely to CPU

fallow remnant Sep 18, 2018, 4:14 PM

#

ooh. that's good to know, thanks!

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 6:41 PM

#

hello once again, does anybody know what do to with this problem?

#

tropic yarrow Sep 18, 2018, 6:42 PM

#

Yes, your source file is not a subdirectory of your project folder

#

place it in your project folder

#

It's pretty self explanatory

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 6:43 PM

#

but i did it

#

and nothing it still gives me the same issue.

tropic yarrow Sep 18, 2018, 6:44 PM

#

Then, it is seriously not a sub directory of your project folder What is your project folder path and your source file path?

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 6:51 PM

#

it was something within the settings thanks @tropic yarrow that helped.

dreamy canopy Sep 18, 2018, 6:52 PM

#

is it normal that Zeus stops working when the dead body of its owner gets deleted?

#

when im in as Zeus, respawn, and delete my body, it kicks me from the interface and wont let me back in

#

that is apparently when i host a mission locally in MP

wise barn Sep 18, 2018, 7:00 PM

#

@fringe salmon
Easy solution: use mikero's tools

median gyro Sep 18, 2018, 7:16 PM

#

why is it i get kicked from every game online that I join?

wise barn Sep 18, 2018, 7:22 PM

#

Nobody likes you
JK

#

kicked for what? What's the msg?

median gyro Sep 18, 2018, 7:23 PM

#

It just says that ive been kicked, ive tried multiple rooms and get the same message

#

I only have the basic game dont know if that plays a role.

wise barn Sep 18, 2018, 7:24 PM

#

Vanilla or modded servers?

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 7:24 PM

#

might be trying to join tanoa maps without apex

median gyro Sep 18, 2018, 7:24 PM

#

vanilla I believe, ive tried without battle eye and all makes me really sad cause I grew up with operation flash point and finally have a nice rig

wise barn Sep 18, 2018, 7:25 PM

#

Ok, If you have no mods loaded, try to join an offical bohemia server like a zeus server.

rustic tusk Sep 18, 2018, 7:26 PM

#

give us a screenshot of a server before you join it

#

that would probably give us the answer instantly

wise barn Sep 18, 2018, 7:26 PM

#

☝

median gyro Sep 18, 2018, 7:27 PM

#

I appreciate it, Ill have to nab it when I get home! most of the time though its just a message saying ive been kicked.

#

internet had me looking at checking my signature

rustic tusk Sep 18, 2018, 7:27 PM

#

probably tanoa or trying to join a exile server

median gyro Sep 18, 2018, 7:29 PM

#

I made it into the lobby of a popular life server and after selecting a faction was kicked shortly after

#

when it comes to joining servers with mods is there a way to selected the correct mods easily before joining?

rustic tusk Sep 18, 2018, 7:34 PM

#

join via launcher; it'll do it automatically

median gyro Sep 18, 2018, 7:41 PM

#

Hmmm, i dont get whats wrong then, I was starting to think that was my issue.

#

anyway ill have to report back to you all when I get to my rig. Thanks to all who took the time to read that over!

timid fiber Sep 18, 2018, 7:42 PM

#

guys i need help

#

battle eye kicks me for "bad packet"

wanton shale Sep 18, 2018, 7:48 PM

#

corrupted files, bad signatures, hacks... < make sure you don't have those issues

timid fiber Sep 18, 2018, 7:49 PM

#

how do i fix those?

#

verify game files?

wanton shale Sep 18, 2018, 7:49 PM

#

yep / update mods

timid fiber Sep 18, 2018, 7:49 PM

#

oki thx:)

#

and also cant hear arma sounds:/

#

arma is so weird, i dont have time to verify game files every day

#

i love and hate this game

dreamy canopy Sep 18, 2018, 8:35 PM

#

yeah, ask the people who followed the white bunny into the rabbit hole of scripting

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 8:58 PM

#

guys be careful if you cant join a server, sometimes your antivirus can interfer with battleye

#

if you have anything else than windows defender try disabling your antivirus before u try again

timid fiber Sep 18, 2018, 9:07 PM

#

now i switched from usb headset to regular and everytime i load into arma sound from my headset disappears for a moment then it come back but cant hear arma sound

fringe salmon Sep 18, 2018, 9:56 PM

#

Hey guys. I'm encountering the error 0xC0000005 - ACCESS_VIOLATION when opening ArmA 3 now. And it is incredibly slow. Is it to do with the ArmA3Sync I just installed or nah

#

I also had to install a version of Java to run the ArmA3Sync

desert isle Sep 19, 2018, 6:56 AM

#

USB headsets are notorious for not playing well will Arma.

dreamy canopy Sep 19, 2018, 8:24 AM

#

does someone have an answer to my earlier question? Is it normal that i get kicked from zeus when the zeus owner´s body gets deleted?

#

in a locally hosted MP mission

edgy zephyr Sep 19, 2018, 9:29 AM

#

@dreamy canopy when ever I’ve been in Zeus, if my players body is damaged then the colour fade happens in Zeus, and if I get killed/enter respawn then it pulls me from Zeus.
So I expect it’s the same if you delete the players body.
Best bet is to make your player body and move it somewhere out the way of the action

dreamy canopy Sep 19, 2018, 9:41 AM

#

ok thanks

#

seems to be the removal ov the body. i suppose in your case there may be a cleanup function that deletes your body right after you die then?

#

because i dont have the issue on respawn, just when the body is deleted by script or manually or by the vanilla cleanup

edgy zephyr Sep 19, 2018, 9:50 AM

#

probably, although if im zeusing i tend to move myself away from danger

dreamy canopy Sep 19, 2018, 9:55 AM

#

yeah its an issue only when i play alone and do random stuff

timid fiber Sep 19, 2018, 2:29 PM

#

@desert isle ive played arma with usb headset for 700 hours and 2 days ago these weird problems started

desert isle Sep 19, 2018, 2:34 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Are you sure there weren't updates?

#

I'm not saying your problems are directly related to your usb headphones, but anyone who has been here awhile is quite aware of the issues they cause.

wise barn Sep 19, 2018, 3:36 PM

#

Win10+USB headset = no good

edgy zephyr Sep 19, 2018, 3:40 PM

#

My wireless usb headsets been fine for my 600 hours

civic cairn Sep 19, 2018, 3:46 PM

#

And now it may very well not be fine

#

Because that's how these things work
