cheers for the help appreciated

Hey! Just started playing Arma 3 once again ! I've got an i5-7500k and a 1060 6G and I quite struggle playing it. Is that normal. I'm at around 30 to 40 FPS

uncut trellis
#

those are pretty normal fps

gentle gust
#

Oh I see. Wasn't sure about that since I have up to 60 in the main campaign! Thanks

uncut trellis
#

sp runs a bit better than MP

#

MP 30-40 is pretty good

ebon nebula
#

so pretty much everytime i start my game, it thinks its my first day on playing it and well my loadouts as well as settings just get reset everytime

quaint jewel
#

write permissions My Documents/Arma 3

ebon nebula
#

arma3 not the arma3 other profiles ?

quaint jewel
#

maybe both

ebon nebula
#

gonna test it

Hey folks, hopefully you wonderful people can help me;

We get this error code in steamcmd when the server tries to download the modpacks. It gets to around 200MB each time, then has a timeout.

Assertion Failed: m_nOutstandingWorkItems == 0
CWorkThreadPool::~CWorkThreadPool: work complete queue not empty, 1 items discarded.
CWorkThreadPool::~CWorkThreadPool: work complete queue not empty, 2 items discarded.
Press any key to continue . . ."```

Each time it does this and I've tried google, reddit and so far no luck. Any suggestions?

hi all, i'm new to the game and having a nightmare with fps drops, my gpu drops to 0% at the same time. I've tried everything but with no change. the only thing i can think is that im playing the game which is installed on an external harddrive. Could this be causing the problem?
Thanks

uncut trellis
#

yes external hdds can be a lot slower and Arma needs speed a lot. SSD is recommended and can help

#

also are you using usb headset?

wraith nacelle
#

No. someone yesterday told me about the usb headset issue so i tried it without with no change

uncut trellis
#

I would say the external drive is a likely reason

wraith nacelle
#

I hope so, can't see what else it could be 😦 really annoying

vivid canopy
#

hello is there anyone on hand to help?

void grove
#

Post your issue . There are 20,000+ members in this discord .

vivid canopy
#

so im having this issue getting into the game while Battleye is on, the game launched without it but there are servers that i want to play that need battleye, the message is "Blocked loading of file 'C:\Windows\System32\wow64.dll'"

#

this only applies when battleye is used

wise barn
#

your windows might be FUBAR so BE is blocking stuff
after some google research (that you could have done also), a fresh install of the OS helped most ppl. a manual repair might also be possible, but somewhat deep-into-the-system procedure and not recommended

vivid canopy
#

alright

#

how can ido a manual repair?

wise barn
#

google

vivid canopy
#

ok

wise barn
#

like i said, not recommended. you might be fucking your system more than it is now, unless you are 100% positive on what you are dealing with

Hello.

I'm having a problem with the AI on my server seemingly not adjusting their AI to the values I set. They still routinely headshot my players out of nowhere. I'm using ACE and much of the medical system isn't being used because they're so accurately getting headshots.

viscid pagoda
#

anyone got any idea why arma might not be starting up for me

brave hawk
#

☝️ Cache was verified, vanilla Arma

viscid pagoda
#

thanks lou

brave hawk
#

@viscid pagoda can you start another game or is it just Arma?

viscid pagoda
#

idk ill check now

brave hawk
#

And can you check your .RPT files (check the wiki for that) as well as no options are used in the launcher?

viscid pagoda
#

its just arma#

brave hawk
#

Can you take a look? (with a simple editor like Notepad++)

#

@viscid pagoda

Dm reset pc working now thanks for the help guys

narrow nimbus
#

Can someone please explain if mod load order is important? Some say yes and some say no. Had no issue before but it seems the load order is out to the server. If yes is there a way to find the correct load order for the server?

uncut trellis
#

with some mods it may be. and with testing

narrow nimbus
#

So I have been running with this for a while now. Have a rather large collection to deal with. Though with CUP I get the following and not sure. For CUP we are running Core, Maps and CWA. Get the following error on the server log

21:48:57 Warning Message: Addon 'CUP_Afghan_Data' requires addon 'CA_E'

uncut trellis
#

you might be running a bad version

narrow nimbus
#

Any idea to find out which might be wrong? All 3 are fresh workshop downloads

uncut trellis
#

is that the only warning you get?

narrow nimbus
#

For now yes, the server stops its start order on that error

start with those conflicting addons and try without them...

narrow nimbus
#

Will try that

wise barn
#

@narrow nimbus
Your CA_E error is related to a corrupt download of CUP core

woven ocean
#

Anyone know how I can find a good days single player map? All made so I don’t have to place 100k units???

uncut trellis
#

look through workshops missions

woven ocean
#

I have

uncut trellis
#

well I would say most of released missions are there

narrow nimbus
#

@uncut trellis SO managed to get cup sorted. It missed one file. Thanks for the assist. Now dealing with the following issue

wise barn
#

where is that from?

#

a RPT file?

narrow nimbus
#

Yeah server error log

#

Have a bunch of random errors that pops up and server gets stuck on loading screen. Can slot select though

wise barn
#

can you upload the complete log to pastebin please?

#

also screenshot the popup errors

narrow nimbus
#

Not sure how to but can DM you a txt file?

wise barn
#

then post the link here

narrow nimbus
wise barn
#

looking good, gimme a sec

#

this is most likely preventing you from starting ANY mission:

a3_characters_f```
you need to verify the game data, your game installation seems to be borked
#

(server)

narrow nimbus
#

OUF! And I am working off a fresh install from earlier today

wise barn
#

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

#

i guess it's a root machine with steam installed?

narrow nimbus
#

Is it possible to upload that .pbo only?

uncut trellis
#

where is the mission from?

narrow nimbus
#

No idea - Hosting through Nitrado

wise barn
#

that's a shame

narrow nimbus
#

@uncut trellis ^ Self made

wise barn
#

also got an error
init.sqf, line 18

narrow nimbus
#

Line 18 I am aware of. It is a AddRating but not game breaking

wise barn
#

the last part about ACE is no error as far as i can tell

#

try this:

deactivate all mods and load a vanilla mission

narrow nimbus
#

Did a reupload for the 5th time and that fixed the ace "error"

wise barn
#

then post the new RPT to pastebin

narrow nimbus
#

1 sec, restarting

wise barn
#

check

narrow nimbus
#

Apologies for the delay, had to get the original config

wise barn
#

no worries

narrow nimbus
wise barn
#
a3_characters_f```
yep, your server install is borked
narrow nimbus
#

Is there a way I can upload that pbo only? Not really up for another 40gb upload after a re-install

wise barn
#

wait... nitrado does not provide server installations?

#

you have to upload it manually?

narrow nimbus
#

they do, but not the custom mods

#

They only offer stuff like exile / alive / epoch and that

wise barn
#

forget about the mods for a moment

narrow nimbus
#

kk ^

wise barn
#

do you even have access to the core gameserver files?

narrow nimbus
#

I do yes. FTP or Web interface

wise barn
#

you can try to replace characters_f.pbo with a copy of your local data

narrow nimbus
#

Is that from \Addons or \Expansion\Addons?

strong steeple
#

what are you telling this poor man, characters doesn't affect functionality of the server πŸ˜›

#

it'll say that and just go on like nothing happened

#

I find it back in 20+ RPT logs from missions ran perfectly fine. Look for an error after the characters one

wise barn

wise barn
#

..\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3 Server\addons

#

@strong steeple
already aware

strong steeple
#

ah, but the characters.pbo warning is harmless

narrow nimbus
#

Server gave issues with and without AddRating. Though that will be the next thing

strong steeple
#

that won't stop your mission from running perfectly fine

#

when you removed the whole expression of addRating?

narrow nimbus
#

yes, made a empty test mission, nothing but 2 playables and it was still broken even without mods

wise barn
#

@strong steeple
the borked characters pbo can be an indicator that also other stuff might be broken

strong steeple
#

that error always pops up if I remember correctly

#

it's a bug as far as I know

#

not a borked PBO

wise barn
#

always better to have a server run without errors in vanilla

strong steeple
#

well, I don't think you can right now. That character thing will always pop up

narrow nimbus
wise barn
#

ok, i surrender πŸ˜„

narrow nimbus
#

Thought it was giving issues on vanilla. let me connect first and see

strong steeple
#

You haven't got a mission loaded yet

#

It may still crash when the server starts reading your mission file

narrow nimbus
#

Have one loaded. It works vanilla now

strong steeple
#

Good, good

narrow nimbus
#

So to the next error and as someone that knows about as much of code...... Mind helping me in cleaning up the coding?

wise barn
#

post it on pastebin and we'll see

#

start with the init.sqf

strong steeple
#

post init.sqf in pastebin please

narrow nimbus
strong steeple
#

you mean this? ```sqf
if(isClass(configFile>>"CfgPatches">>"Revo_NoWeaponSway"))then{
endMission "END2";};
if(isClass(configFile>>"CfgPatches">>"Revo_ReducedWeaponSway"))then{
endMission "END2";};
if(isClass(configFile>>"CfgPatches">>"SSPCM"))then{
endMission "END2";};

if (hasInterface) then {
[] spawn {
waitUntil {alive player};
player setVariable ["loadout",getUnitLoadout player,false];
player addEventHandler ["Respawn", {
player setUnitLoadout (player getVariable "loadout");
}];
execVM "AddRating.sqf";
};
};```

#

Where's this addRating supposed to go?

narrow nimbus
strong steeple
#

ah, this might work then ^

narrow nimbus
#

Only way I could find to stop friendlies getting locked out of vics if pilots get shot down

#

And with all mods not being signed I had to go with end mission

strong steeple
#

Why not use only signed mods then?

narrow nimbus
#

Sadly I have not that say. But it also means that every single time a mod updates it is a manual upload to the server with new keys.

strong steeple
#

manual upload? I let a quick script do that for me with SteamCMD

#

even automatic key distribution

wise barn
#

not with nitrado

#

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

strong steeple
#

sigh Nitrado...

narrow nimbus
#

Yeah steam blocked API on Nitrado

#

Atleast their service is more stable than gameservers

strong steeple
#

I'll assume they had a good reason to blacklist Nitrado

wise barn
#

\root FTW πŸ˜„

narrow nimbus
#

It is only arma though. And they generally have a good standing with Steam. They just don't deal with arma and workshop. Every other game they do though

#

Though arma is not their focus. Ask them about DayZ or Ark

quaint jewel
#

@wise barn this is most likely preventing you from starting ANY mission: no it's not. Everyone get's that error, it doesn't mean anything

#

@narrow nimbus Line 18 I am aware of. It is a AddRating but not game breaking Ah if you already know everything, why do you ask here then?
Script errors can also make missions fail to load.

wise barn
#

i know that by now, but thanks pointing out... again...

#

πŸ˜„

narrow nimbus
#

Put it like this. Line 18 worked for 6 months no issue XD I do feel that somehow the fact that vanilla arma was bugged out too gets missed. Replacing the PBO did seem to solve that issue. Now running the cleaned up script that Nightstalk3r sent and waiting for restart to test

#

And infinite loading screen

quaint jewel
#

The RPT that got sent isn't trying to start any mission.

Have a bunch of random errors that pops up and server gets stuck on loading screen. Can slot select though What errors. @wise barn asked you for screenshots but you didn't send any.
Also the server doesn't have a loading screen, so what you are saying doesn't make sense. Are YOU stuck on loading screen? Are you trying to tell us that? In that case we need your RPT, not the servers.

Fix your init.sqf error first, then come back and provide more details

#

Are you using MCC?

narrow nimbus
#

It is not only I that can not connect. Get to selection screen and then you end up in a loading screen. And MCC?

quaint jewel
#

So you cannot connect. But you can still get to slot selection screen?

#

MCC. Mission makers sandbox. The mod

narrow nimbus
#

That is correct. And no, not using MCC

quaint jewel
#

but if you are in slot selection, you are already connected

#

what you are saying doesn't make sense

#

send your client RPT

narrow nimbus
#

Where would I find that? Also, other clients can not connect either

quaint jewel
#

%localappdata%\Arma 3

narrow nimbus
quaint jewel
#

Also please stop setting them to expire "never". You're flooding the internet with garbage that will never be deleted πŸ˜„

narrow nimbus
#

Oops - I learned about pastebox a moment ago. My bad

quaint jewel
#

Some mod is trashing Animations and skeletons and CfgWeapons

wise barn
#

i suspect project opfor

quaint jewel
#

My guess would be Project OPFOR or Spec4Gear
Also stop loading tons of terrains, only load the ones you need.

wise barn
#

not sure tho

#

ninjaed dedmen... yessssssssss

narrow nimbus
#

english please? XD

So I assume a reinstall of those 2 as a start?

quaint jewel
#

Also remove the start parameters -cpuCount=4 -enableHT -maxmem=13526 -maxvram=5121 they do nothing besides making things worse

#

No. Not reinstall. Remove.

wise barn
#

no, remove project opfor

#

ninjaed by dedmen... noooooooooo

quaint jewel
narrow nimbus
#

Removing it both sides. Testing

wise barn
#

i've never seen RHS throwing this many errors...

narrow nimbus
#

😰

wise barn
#

and i thought the AH-64 by fza was discontinued years ago...?

#

ok, i was wrong

#

still in dev

narrow nimbus
#

Never had issues with project opfor before. Maybe a bad download/upload?

wise barn
#

better: again

quaint jewel
#

never had issues till now πŸ˜‰

#

If it works after you've removed it we know that it's the problem, then can try redownload.
If it's not the problem, continue searching

wise barn
#

project opfor was not updated since nov. 2017...............

narrow nimbus
#

Dedmen you know why we are going through this πŸ˜› Rather not be in toruble though

#

Also in hindsight : Never trust youtube videos

quaint jewel
#

True. Especially concerning Arma. Mod tutorials, Script tutorials.. Never trust that crap. Most of it is garbage

narrow nimbus
#

It is actually quite scary. Been doing this for 8 months now, before then I had no knowledge. Has literally been trial and error

#

More error though

#

Should I maybe not delete all the mods and re-download and re-upload?

quaint jewel
#

I told you to remove some start parameters. They are still in there

narrow nimbus
#

Mind slipped. It is 3am and my mind is half functioning

quaint jewel
#

Exact same errors are still there. so it wasn't project opfor.
Try removing Spec4Gear next.
If you see No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWeapons/EventHandlers.scope'. in RPT then it's still broken. You don't need to join a Server. Just launching game to main menu is enough

narrow nimbus
#

Checking

#

Yeah error is still there

quaint jewel
#

then continue removing mods. The less "famous" ones first. 75th rangers, dual arms, Aspis gear, Caucasus Insurgency

narrow nimbus
quaint jewel
#

Okey so you found the mod that's causing the eventhandler error

#

CfgMovesMaleSdr is still broken though

narrow nimbus
#

Dual Arms

quaint jewel
#

Should tell that mod author that his heap of garbage is broken

narrow nimbus
#

And RHS is still shitting itself. AT this point its my almost my whole modlist XD

wise barn
#

something is still kicking the skeleton

narrow nimbus
#

There is a big chance that the download is shot. I am from a 3rd world country after all. Gonna do the whole start fresh thing as we have now established that almost everything is broken

quaint jewel
#

Just looked into the code for Dual Arms. It has 0 occurences of EventHandlers so... Doesn't seem like that's causing the CfgWeapons/Eventhandlers issue

narrow nimbus
#

Could Be C.O.S

wise barn
#

could be anything...
start one mod at a time and check the rpt after every reboot
start with CBA_A3, next CBA_A3 and ace, CBA_A3, ACE and RHS mods, ect

quaint jewel
#

CBA, ACE, RHS, CUP can be assumed to be clean

#

all the popular mods that are battle tested every day probably don't have such glaring errors that break the game

wise barn
#

start CBA, CUP and RHS just to be sure

narrow nimbus
#

Only things added was COS, 75th, Dual Arms and VSM All In One

wise barn
#

VSM has been removed by the original author due usage of battlefield content. remove that first

narrow nimbus
#

I have, had it down to RHS, ACE, CUP and CBA only. RHS still shat itself

wise barn
#

rpt please

quaint jewel
#

VSM has been cleaned up and reuploaded

wise barn
#

oh, i wasn't aware of that

narrow nimbus
#

All that because someone sold Van stolen goods

desert isle
#

If its been cleaned up it shouldn't be named VSM

narrow nimbus
#

@quaint jewel @wise barn Apologies I fell asleep on my keyboard. Thanks for the assist. Did a fresh upload without the possible broken mods and about to test.

#

Seems to still have a issue with all clients loading past selection screen (tested with 4 clients).

Added in ```_EndSplashScreen = {
for "_x" from 1 to 4 do {
endLoadingScreen;
sleep 3;
};
};

[] spawn _EndSplashScreen;``` as a temp solution for this weekend just so that we can use the server. Thanks for the aid gents.

quaint jewel
#

endless loading screen is caused by a postInit script not finishing

#

probably a waitUntil

narrow nimbus
#

What scripts run post Init? Also, can mod load order also not bug it out?

quaint jewel
#

I don't know what scripts

#

CfgFunctions postInit

#

any mod can plug stuff in there

#

mod load order also influences in what order their post init scripts run

narrow nimbus
#

SO with that AddRating, onPLayerKilled and onPlayerRespawn could also bug it out? Also using Survivable crashes trhat adds in a .sqf though it is set to not handle damage as it is known to bug out ACE3. Though it only runs on playerDamage

quaint jewel
#

no

#

they are not postInit

narrow nimbus
#

Ah oki, learn something new.

naive heron
#

i need help i cant host a game

#

like i did the port forward etc still not working

primal oar
#

All of my Campaign data was erased for some reason. Any way I can get it back?

uncut trellis
#

Did you change profile?

primal oar
#

No

#

it just showed that none of the missions were completed even though I was in the 2nd chapter

quaint jewel
#

profiles get corrupted from time to time

primal oar
#

Dang that sucks

#

ok thx

quaint jewel
#

doesn't mean that, that happened. But I lost my Arsenal loadouts about a dozen times in total due to corrupted profiles

primal oar
#

Idk all of my multiplayer data is sorta messed up as well so I believe that can be the cause

surreal sedge
#

Hello guys, I would like to know if someone in the dev team is aware about the Zeus not having the USS Liberty from the Encore update listed on the spawn list. How could I report this bug?

quaint jewel
#

Might be under modules

#

the USS Liberty isn't just an object that you can place

surreal sedge
#

It isn't on modules

#

Isn't the liberty a static ship just like the hms proteus?

#

And it's weird because the team that made achilles mod made it so that we can spawn it

#

In zeus, I mean

quaint jewel
#

I'd guess it's not available for same reason as freedom

surreal sedge
#

The HMS Proteus is available

#

The USS Liberty is not

uncut trellis
#

But is it official content or made to a mod

surreal sedge
#

Makes me think that they might have forgotten to put it in

#

The USS Liberty was added on the Encore update as a stactic ship from NATO

#

It's official and can be spawned in Eden

#

Not in Zeus

uncut trellis
#

Yes but the Zeus placeable one

surreal sedge
#

The Zeus placeable is modded

quaint jewel
#

The HMS proteus is a mod though isn't it?

surreal sedge
#

No

uncut trellis
#

Well there you have it

quaint jewel
#

And it's a single static object

surreal sedge
#

The HMS Proteus is a submarine

uncut trellis
#

Someone has to mod it in Zeus

quaint jewel
#

The Liberty and Freedom aren't probably

#

which is why they are not available

surreal sedge
#

Yes, but the USS Liberty is official, it should be on official zeus, everything else from the Encore update made it in

#

This is the only thing that didn't

uncut trellis
#

Liberty and freedom are made out of multiple objects

quaint jewel
#

The USS Freedom is also official

#

Liberty has it's interior as seperate model afaik. Zeus cannot do that.

#

You could only do that via script in a module

uncut trellis
#

And if neither are in official Zeus assets the that's just how they have meant it to be

surreal sedge
#

Does that mean that Zeus was never supposed to spawn these to begin with?

uncut trellis
#

Possibly

surreal sedge
#

Damn it... These are awesome ships forever lost in the Eden editor then

uncut trellis
#

But only BI knows

#

You could look up if anyone has made a Zeus addon for them

surreal sedge
#

They have

#

Achilles

#

But I usually play official zeus servers

#

Since I can't host

#

And also, making people install a mod to play in a server is really detrimental

uncut trellis
#

Then they likely are out of reach

surreal sedge
#

Damn...

#

Well... I suppose that's that. What a shame really.

uncut trellis
#

That's how servers work... They use mods and people who want to use those mods play on the servers

I know, that's why this sucks. Driving people who don't have the mods away from a server just to spawn a single stactic ship

naive heron
#

@surreal sedge cant host?

surreal sedge
#

Might as well just make a server with the zeus module on

#

Nope, can't port forward because my ISP sucks balls

naive heron
#

Hmm

#

Ive setting firewall. Port forwarding the upnp stuff

#

Checked the last few stuffs and im good to go

#

Took me 3 days tho

surreal sedge
#

Unfortunately my isp doesn't provide me my static IP, that's why I can't Port Forward, if I want to host, I'll have to change my ISP

quaint jewel
#

I also don't have a static IP, but can still host fine

#

Don't need static IP to host

surreal sedge
#

Weird... I cant at all. Confirmedly because of my IP

#

But, I have Brazillian ISP, we have problems no one else suffers

#

Anyway... thank you for the answers. Hope they add these ships one day...

#

One last thing before I go... I was on one of the official bohemia zeus server the other day and this guy came up and somehow he could spawn in Arsenals, move things around as a soldier, make everyone vote him admin

quaint jewel
#

Hacker

surreal sedge
#

I called him out and he said he was using scripts

#

Yeah, I figured he was either a Hacker, a Dev or a Scripter

#

THe server had Admin Debug Console on at the time

#

Is that why he had access?

#

Or it doesn't matter at all?

quaint jewel
#

well if you have debug console you can copy paste scripts into it

surreal sedge
#

It was official bohemia server mind you

#

And I was the admin at the time

#

He somehow did that without having admin access

fading pulsar
#

Then yeah, cheating/exploiting/something cheeki

naive heron
#

I did everything but my host still doesnt show up

#

Is there anything i can do still?

wise barn
#

check if your ISP is setting you up with IPv4 or IPv6
arma seems to have trouble connecting on local hosted servers using v6

#

@naive heron

naive heron
#

Ipv6

#

Arma3 is getting old 😁

#

Arma is also way to complicated on this

#

Still the best out there

#

My friend already made a dedicated server

fringe salmon
#

what am i doing wrong

#

this addAction ["Collect Intel", {deleteVehicle intel1;}];

#

giving me an error

quaint jewel
#

an error πŸ€”

#

Or do you mean "a n error" aka "not error" aka "not defined error" aka "variable not defined error" aka "variable not defined in expression error" ?
Or did you mean "a n error" aka "not error" aka" not a number error" aka "expected number, not a number error" ?
Or did you mean "a n error" aka "no error" aka "there is no error I don't know what I'm doing, how did I even get here? error" ?

quaint jewel
#

Okey then. Let's start to troubleshoot what the issue could be. I don't have much to go on, so let's start at the basics.
I your computer plugged in? Did you pay the power bills? Can your computer power up?
Is your monitor turned on? does it display anything?
Did you try pulling the plug and plugging it back in? I heard that helps in some cases.

fringe salmon
#

nevermind

#

I fixed it.

#

I have another question. How can I make it so that once intel is collected, new map markers are shown for the player? I tried using the sow/hide module but you can't sync map markers to it.

quaint jewel
#

Didn't know you can even hide markers

fringe salmon
#

You can't, appearantly

#

I tried.

#

I guess the only option is to spawn them with scripts

uncut trellis
#

or move them from hiding

placid token
#

Tried playing with marker transparency?

fringe salmon
#

I dunno how that would work

narrow nimbus
#

In terms of the server log file now only have "bone" errors thats obvious. Can anyone maybe please have a look at the log and help me with checking if there is anything that might be out of place in terms of it being server breaking?

those bone errors can be ignored

#

@quaint jewel i disarmed my ipv6 i should be gut now?

ipv6 enabled or disabled doesn't matter

you need ipv4

naive heron
#

I have ipv4

#

But it kick my host away bcs my ipv6 is like. No no your not coming tru and my iov4 is just an old man in a race against usainbolt at this moment. So my disabling ipv6 is kinda am breaking ipv6 his legs so ipv4 can win the race and ipv6 wont bother him again

Hello, whenever I try to launch Arma 3 from the launcher I encounter this error https://puu.sh/Csj9S/eea55c2c34.png So far I have reinstalled the game to a new drive, and I can launch the game from the system directory (arma3.exe) but BattleEye doesn't activate correctly and prompts for a restart which than attempts to use the launcher thus the error occurs. What troubleshooting steps do you recommend? Thank you

uncut trellis
#

for some reason it seems like its blocking a massive amount of windows core files for you

fringe salmon
#

What next steps do you think could be taken?

uncut trellis
#

that I unfortunately dont know

#

but you might find something about BE blocking those files online

#

maybe someone else has run into same or similar issue

fading sequoia
#

Check viruses

pulsar cove
#

a friend of mine tried launching arma recently and was greeted with an error code, 0X0000dead, in which his game then crashes. Hes tested and it's not any specific mod, and clearing his user configs in documents did not fix anything, as well as a steam verificationof files. Any idea?

quaint jewel
#

Might just be one of BE's random hickups @fringe salmon
For how long do you have that problem?

@pulsar cove 0xdead means you got a error message that told you exactly what was wrong before it crashed

pulsar cove
#

?

#

The game was dead, with no reasoning?

quaint jewel
#

no

pulsar cove
#

Hence 0000?

quaint jewel
#

with a very specific reason

#

no

#

0xDEAD.

#

Means Arma killed itself on purpose, because it encountered an error that it didn't want to recover from

#

it tells you about the error in a message popup box, or in RPT. And then kills itself with that error code

pulsar cove
#

Huh, strange.

#

We fixed the bug a few hours ago by having him make a new profile from the launcher, so theres that i guess

#

I googled the code and the only things on it were, counted 6 different reports of the code, all in 2016, and a fake wiki page stating to fix the bug you had to install the wikis own program that looked like adware

quaint jewel
#

googling the code won't help you

#

as it literally tells you "look at the error message I gave you"

fringe salmon
#

@quaint jewel I have had this problem since yesterday. Thing is though, I haven't touched Arma 3 in over 3 months

fringe salmon
#

Didn't know you can even hide markers sure thing, you can make them invisible by altering alpha

Wrong channel?

vanilla game? mods?

kind gorge
#

vanilla

#

any gamemode it happens

#

Altis life / invade + annex etc

#

gpu usage isnt stable while playing if that helps

uncut trellis
#

no client side mods or anything like that

#

drivers all up to date?

kind gorge
#

yes

#

average gpu usage is 35% while playing

#

drops to 0-2 at the same time as game freezing

uncut trellis
#

does the armas rpt log say anything?

kind gorge
#

@uncut trellis What happened

uncut trellis
#

?

kind gorge
#

I mean what is that

#

what is the rpt log

#

I sent the wrong message

uncut trellis
#

its the games log file

#

%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Arma 3

#

should be found here

kind gorge
#

There is 10

#

10 RPT Files

uncut trellis
#

each run should produce one

#

so you can open up the latest

pulsar cove
#

Excellent help.

fringe salmon
#

New profile means whole new profilenamespace variables and new missions directory. Both have potential to cause trouble if misused/abused @pulsar cove

#

In fact I think making new profile should be one of the first things to try after making sure no mods have been used

kind gorge
#

That's todays RPT

uncut trellis
#

well at looks like the mission you are playing is running some buggy script in it constantly

#

so that could be related

kind gorge
#

But it happens for every mission

#

Altis life

#

Invade and annex

#

And none of the people I play with get this problem

uncut trellis
#

both of those are heavily scripted missions

#

then its also possibly it could be problem with your internet connection

#

does single player work right?

kind gorge
#

I haven't tried it I will try

#

However my GPU usage drops at the same time as the freeze

#

Is that just because when the game is frozen the GPU doesn't do anything?

#

It has nothing to do with my gpu because the usage drops when freezing on both my cards; my 2070 and my old rx 460

uncut trellis
#

do you stream or have something else running at the same time?

kind gorge
#

No#

#

Just MSI afterburner

#

Steam and sometimes spotify which I closed to check if it changes anything but it doesn't

uncut trellis
#

does afterburner do some runtime optimization or somesuch

kind gorge
#

No it just monitors gpu temp and usage etc

kind gorge
#

@uncut trellis Just tested single player campaign

#

Same thing happens

uncut trellis
#

then it could be some sort of problem with your GPU

#

you could try with different video settings too if that makes any difference

kind gorge
#

@uncut trellis Defintely not a problem with gpu

#

It happened with my RX 460

#

Since then I've had a massive upgrade to an RTX 2070 + R5 2600

#

Still happening

#

Also tried all video settings

#

Is it worth reinstalling the game?

uncut trellis
#

worth a shot

kind gorge
#

Couldn't you see anything wrong in the log?

uncut trellis
#

nothing poped out to my eyes but then again I just play the game like anyone else

#

someone else might see something different

kind gorge
#

I'll leave it here in case someone can see

fringe salmon
#

@kind gorge rpt logging is file operation and it is known to cause stutter especially when script errors and lots of errors are logged at once. You can disable logging though and see if this helps

kind gorge
#

How? @fringe salmon

kind gorge
#

ty

fringe salmon
#

I dont recommend it, better fix the errors

kind gorge
#

what do you mean

fringe salmon
#

I mean make sure your mission runs error free

#

this is just to try and see if the stuttering is cause by the rpt writing

#

I am not recommending to leaving it on as I am sure you would do if it eases the stuttering

Hello, I've got a reoccurring error in my server logs

Server: Object 25:9 not found (message Type_128)

Anyone know if this is something i should do anything about? It appears loads of times throughout the logs

quaint jewel
#

not really something you can fix

#

Engine bugs

astral wharf
#

Another question then, what does this mean

Class WeaponFireGun destroyed with lock count 3
#

Since i have some weird issue with Fire Rate of weapons not coming across to other clients or the server, if an MG opens up full 1200RPM it comes across to other players as 20RPM instead for some reason, it seems like the server takes it the same way as it takes a long time to kill someone

#

Ive tried it on different servers and LAN its the same issue so i suspect its some kind of mod

quaint jewel
#

that log line is unrelated. Maybe some problems with your network config

astral wharf
#

What do you mean Network Config?

#

If it exists on other servers aswell and players?

quaint jewel
#

basic.cfg

#

other servers?

astral wharf
#

Yes it happens on other servers with the same modpack, i first thought it was the server so i had the files moved to another server, it didnt fix it, i was playing some local hosted with some people and it still happened

not sure if the right place, but if my headset gets disconnected and reconnects, theres no sound coming from arma anymore, is there any other way to fix this other then restarting the game?

ruby perch
#

Has anyone had an issue where sound suddenly cuts out (windows shows 100% output on all 8 surround channels though) ? Especially while entering helicopters. This happened to me and only one other person on my server, simultaneously. Alt-tabing sometimes fixed it. We used the mods for "Hearts and Minds" + ACRE (ACRE continued to work fine)

uncut trellis
#

Arma has had a lot of trouble with USB headsets so that may be issue. Some have got those working with driver updates. If Arma loses the used audio device I don't think it then connects back to it.

tropic yarrow
#

Well not really Arma, Windows 10 does.

uncut trellis
#

Well yeah win 10 may be the core of the issue

#

But also Arma does not have ingame audio device selection.

tropic yarrow
#

Right. One day we might be able to get that, I still frustrate myself over having to restart arma when switching to speakers.

ruby perch
#

Hmm I'm on Windows 7 and never had this before in 3 years of playing. Arma goes into Voicemeeter, but I do have a USB headset in the end. Thanks for the info!

You could also try verifying the game files.

yea lemme call me ISP real quick πŸ˜›

restart router or use vpn

could computer restart help?

quaint jewel

I heard VPN's solving that in the past. So I assume nothing else helps

#

Battleye on serverside seems to remember your IP and get confused

mighty pier
#

Client restart won't do anything. Server restart does. Needs a new IP as Dedmen pointed out. It's where BE won't release the IP on force disconnect. We asked about it months ago in the #arma_battleye channel

#

it's been around since the update that had the BE 'improvements' and port changes etc...

strong steeple
#

fixed at 3rd BE reinstall

mighty pier
#

Hmm, did the server restart in between?

uncut trellis
#

possibly enough time passed by πŸ˜„

mighty pier
#

Will be that. Never heard of a client be reinstall fixing it. It's the server that's hanging on to the IP and saying "nada" when it pops up again.

strong steeple
#

well, I restarted the server 5 times. After 5th, still couldn't join. Tried 2-3 times. Found the hint to delete BE from the /battleye folder. Found two bat files to (un)install. Used both, joined, got in πŸ€”

BE'll never stop surprising

OK, that does sound different then. But, glad you're sorted anyway πŸ‘

Coming back to Arma after a few years and I can't seem to find a single server that allows mods. Just trying to use Personal Arsenal, NoWeaponSway, and would like to use RHS... Any suggestions?

It's recommended to use the Launcher server browser rather than the in-game server-browser @sharp kernel. It handles mods better.

There are most certainly RHS public servers, keep looking.

A3Launcher or the default Steam one?

Do not post duplicate threads in more than one forum simply to get an answer quicker or to draw more attention to your post.

How do I map a key to the "targeting camera"? I don't even see that in my controls menu

#

Some people call it multifunctional camera or whatever, I don't see that in the keybindings anywhere

tropic yarrow
#

Tried CTRL + RMB?

#

It's a targeting pod

fringe salmon
#

Yeah, that's what everyone is saying, that doesn't do anything for me

tropic yarrow
#

Okay, then the plane or vehicle doesn't have a targeting pod. Which vehicle are you using?

fringe salmon
#

demining drone

#

I'm trying out the laws of war campaign, it says it has it

tropic yarrow
#

Just right click and it'll throw you into the FPP

fringe salmon
#

sent you a screenshot

tropic yarrow
#

Press T to designate a target

#

CTRL + T to fixate or lock to a specific point

fringe salmon
#

Yeah, but either way the hint says I don't have a button mapped for the targeting camera, which, is fine, I'll map a key to it. Thing is I'm looking for the thing in the controls menu and it's not listed

#

I've looked uner view, weapons, movement, everything. I don't see it

blissful bramble
#

might be "multi function camera"

tropic yarrow
#

Seems he can't find that either monkey

blissful bramble
#

can't remember, but i think it had a weird name

fringe salmon
#

Does it matter that I have the Arma 2 preset controls? (because I'm stuck in my old ways lol)

#

Does that remove Arma 3 features?

tropic yarrow
#

Possibly yes.

blissful bramble
#

doubtful

fringe salmon
#

What's "AV Camera"?

#

is that it?

blissful bramble
#

probably

#

or it's the one for the PiP display

#

but I think that's in info panels now

tropic yarrow
#

Yeah iirc all the pip stuff got moved to the info panels.

fringe salmon
#

well, AV camera isn't it. I just tried that

#

what the hell man

#

Why's it giving me a hint for a control that I don't have mapped that's also seemingly un-mappable

blissful bramble
#

Targeting camera should be down from AV camera in Common controls

tropic yarrow
#

It's definitely mappable. It is a keybind, and has the key values existing in the game.

I have two computers on my lan, one is an Arma 3 server, other is my computer. I play in my computer on the server mentioned, and sometimes i have red chain. This is normal? Red chain lasts for 80 seconds than i got disconnected.

quaint jewel
#

tank addon failing to load is most likely because someone doesn't respect the law nor the developers who made the game you are trying to play
Or just corrupt files. Just validate via Steam.
But the last 3 instances someone had an error that tank was not loading it was because he broke the law

blissful bramble
#

you haven't set your player profile to use that type of headgear, have you?

I am not breaking any law. I just bought and downloaded the game.

Hello. Looking for a bit of advice so i have been playing life servers with mods for around 2 years now and for the last 6months or so once loading on to a server i could be on there 1minute or 30minutes and it will just freeze my pc on a black screen causing it to lock up and i have to reset it manually this doesn't matter if i am on a server with mod or without mods it still happens My pc specs are i7700k cpu nvidia gtx 970 12gb ram 800wattpsu i Have swapped all these parts out and it still happens does anyone have a fix for this

uncut trellis
#

for starters you got to decide do you want to ask it on this or #arma3_questions channel

#

then you must first test if it happens just playing normal game without mods

azure palm
#

i assume you have tried verify steam files and making a new profile

uncut trellis
#

those are worthwile to do too

#

but also nothing can be properly debugged if mods are involved

azure palm
#

yes but if its a unique error it could be a bad var stored in profile.var

#

new profile would remove that possibility

vagrant comet
#

@uncut trellis sorry i will keep it in this forum and yeah it still happens when playing on a server without mods @azure palm i have tried verifying steam files but i haven't tried a new profile i will give that a shot thanks

Anyone else have the following issues with the CUP mod?:
A) Aircraft randomly explode on the LHD sometimes when you get in them.

I have a very strange issue on my dedicated box running an Altis Life server. Some players have issues where their microphone does not work. As in; randomly when you hold Caps to talk it does not work but shows the icon as if it does. Sometimes it stops even if you are 30mins into the server. For a majority of the server mics work fine, however, like I said randomly it will stop with some people. We have put the codec quality for VON to 3, adjusted it to 10 and adjusted it to 30 always having the same issue.

#

We launch using TADST in case that matters

#

BTW everyone’s mics work perfect on other servers. So it is definitely a server side issue. What would cause this?

If clean install does not work its a problem with something else than Arma.

Good evening.
I would like to know if a well versed arma 3 dedicated server creator is available at this point and time to aid me in my setting up of a dedicated server.
See I have created rules in the firewall log and router settings, inbound and outbound (all 6x2 of them being ports and UDP). I created all of the files necessary for the server, added all the lines in the target. But the server doesn't appear, direct connect doesn't work, and I'm borderline mad at my incompetence.

UPDATE; Im fuming.

Sweden's download region cant upload to the workshop! Riot!!! (i set it to UK - London, and it worked fine)

@spare wolf Are you sure? I doubt it has to do with the region and maybe a connectivity error they're having.

Thanks you @fringe salmon resolved. Resolution size issue on my question

@fringe salmon Starting CPU and RAM. Having a SSD will aid a ton.

fringe salmon

I have an ssd

gritty onyx
#

It's caused by the game more than your hardware

#

Heavy scripts running on Life servers, high player density in towns and lots of custom objects cause it most likely

@fringe salmon

Yeah thats what i was thinking

#

However my friends with equivalent hardware have no issues whatsoever

That's interesting

16 GB of RAM would be good though

#

16GB of good RAM would be good.

#

Lots of crap RAM is still crap RAM

gritty crypt
#

@fringe salmon Personally, I'd rather have 8GB of high performance DDR4, than 16GB of low performance DDR3. Off the top of my head, I don't think the 4690k is DDR4 compatible though.

#

Save your money up for when you can upgrade your CPU and RAM at the same time to 2019 specs. You'll probably have to do a new motherboard when you do that swap too.

wise barn
#

30FPS in kavala on a populated server is still pretty good. don't expect much more.
use autodetect for graphics settings and play with that. if you go on lower graphics settings, you shift the workload from the GPU to the CPU, and as we know a CPU is not as good as a GPU πŸ˜‰
