#

Yup already on it

#

Did you per chance use my profiler mod previously?
Or my debugger?
There is a old file in Arma 3\intercept\SQF-Assembly that is probably what's crashing your game.
I don't know how that file got to there. But it's the old one year old version that's broken.

zealous rivet Mar 19, 2019, 1:40 PM

#

I never used it before. Lol.

#

What the heck. Ok. So when I get back home I'll delete it. Do i need to replace it with anything or can i remove it entirely

quaint jewel Mar 19, 2019, 1:43 PM

#

Just remove the whole intercept folder in your Arma 3 directory

zealous rivet Mar 19, 2019, 1:45 PM

#

Will do. So your script profiler usually does a good job at finding which mod is problematic?

quaint jewel Mar 19, 2019, 1:46 PM

#

Well it can technically tell you which script function is causing havok. Never has been used for that in practice as that doesn't happen that often

zealous rivet Mar 19, 2019, 1:47 PM

#

After work I'll definitely get back to you. Crossing my fingers

quaint jewel Mar 19, 2019, 1:55 PM

#

Okey I looked into the mdmp. It's indeed caused by a bug in the old version of the sqf-assembly plugin. That broke with 1.90 and was updated 2 weeks ago.
You still had the mid-2018 version in your folder though, it loaded that and crashed on the bug.

zealous rivet Mar 19, 2019, 1:57 PM

#

Maybe you uploaded that to the github release?

quaint jewel Mar 19, 2019, 1:58 PM

#

Nah just checked. Atleast the latest release is correct. The others are older thus still have the old version

zealous rivet Mar 19, 2019, 2:17 PM

#

I have a hunch my problem is with ALiVE itself but they can't replicate. At least if I can point to which script is crashing Arma I can have them pinpoint the problem.

hello lovely a3 community, i'm getting this error after launching a server (ingame server-host). I did a full file check, deleted the file and did a re-check too...any solution here? http://puu.sh/D2qmi/0952069974.png

quaint jewel Mar 19, 2019, 9:41 PM

#

At server launch, or at mission launch?

#

Looks like bad mod. That dik codes file is in ui_f not 3den

#

Actually no.. It's in both. 3den has a copy of that same file

#

I assume that's a #include from a missions description.ext then

#

includes from description.ext are broken/bugged

lost valve Mar 19, 2019, 9:45 PM

using vanilla, nothing mod or anything custom stuff...its crashing after pressing the 2nd time on host server (where you enter server details etc.)

quaint jewel Mar 19, 2019, 9:46 PM

no custom missions in mpmissions folder either?

#

did you try verifying the game files via steam?

quaint jewel Mar 19, 2019, 9:47 PM

Just confirming again that the hotfix does not fix the issue we see (the black Arma 3 screen and does not progress to slots) and there is no error in the RPT that explains what is going on. Hotfix has not repaired the problem, rolled back again to 1.88.

@fringe salmon u're on a Linux server?

quaint jewel Mar 20, 2019, 2:51 PM

Might be that battleye+mods thing that we're seeing lately?
I still suspect file limit. But can't be OS file limit.. Maybe battleye has a bug?
If you are on BE and linux @fringe salmon you could try disabling BE and seeing if that fixes the issues.

fringe salmon Mar 20, 2019, 3:17 PM

On Windows, not using battle eye, signatures are set to 0. None of these is the issue.

Hi, it's caused by special character in your profile. We are working on fix now. I am sorry for trouble. You can alternatively start the game with -profiles= parameter and some name without special character. For example -profiles=test

Yes I've been having a lot of problems because of that! I'll be more careful next time i install windows.. =/

#

Are there any downside to that fix? do i loose mission progress for example?

#

Thanks for quick replies 😃

quaint jewel Mar 20, 2019, 4:56 PM

#

Could be that you loose mission progress. But you can manually copy over your old profile files to the new directory I think.
Though apparently Arma sees profiles directory as appdata local folder?
That is not the same as the my documents one where your settings and progress are stored

uneven kettle Mar 20, 2019, 4:58 PM

#

So where is the -profiles=test stored?

quaint jewel Mar 20, 2019, 4:58 PM

#

I assume in Arma directory

#

there might be a test folder in there

@cerulean lance Just a quickie: are you whitelisting missions in server.cfg?

quaint jewel Mar 20, 2019, 6:38 PM

#

@viral cargo clientside crash. not server

#

So you removed everything in both my documents and arma directory missions/mpmissions?
Did you also remove in "my documents/arma 3 - other profiles"?
Check
C:\Steam Shit\steamapps\workshop\content\107410 and search for .bin files in there

#

these are missions from the workshop

cerulean lance Mar 20, 2019, 6:41 PM

mystery of the day

#

since 1.90 unsung mod is crashing wit hcertain headgear

#

http://svn.armanam.eu/ftp/eggbeast/unsung/docs/Files/config.rar

#

in the config file here you can see which headgear causes all clients a fatal memory crash

#

//CTD

#

it seems that it is all classnames inheriting something

#

could it be that iteminfo inheritances have become broken?

#

as that may explain why a series of connected classes crash

#

our headgear models have a few issues in binlog, but not the ones that crash lol

#

the headgear was also working fine up until 1.90

#

Since last update certain specific hats are causing an issue - very weird. when a player puts it on, and runs near other players, they all get status memory access violation - this is from our mod, which has had these hats running fine for 3-4 years in arma 3.

Maybe some leftover A2 property that's hidden from view

And resaving textures as tga and reconverting them to paa

ok changing to default beret model, it doesnt CTD

#

so there's smething about 21 of our 50+ hats that is now causing a CTD since 1.90

#

i wonder what BI changed in the update, that could affect headgear models only?

#

I'm now recreating p3ds lod by lod

#

and removing textures and rvmats etc

#

to see what specifically is the cause

#

u can wearthe helmet, but if you go next to another player and he turns to look at you, bam! memory CTD

#

i guess that means it is likely a faulty texture

#

like an smdi

#

as i've seen something like that before

blissful bramble Mar 23, 2019, 7:42 PM

#

clear all named properties except lodNoShadow = 1. from the LODs apart from the shadows which should have none at all. And the only other one you should have is autocenter 0 in the geometry LOD. Open the UV editor and make sure it has no extra UV sets other than UV Set 0, then check that the .rvmat is not looking for anything other than uvSource="tex";

#

Ideally, that'd give you the most "pure" model

sudden cipher Mar 23, 2019, 7:49 PM

#

properties are same as you suggest already

#

some of the rvmatsare old

Anyone had similar issues? OB suddenly stopped loading textures. Bulldozer preview was configured 100% fine and working and then just stopped loading model textures on all models. I tried re-installing , verifying , double checking textures paths , double checking the default texture folder P:\ is set, as it was when it was working and then just this:
https://i.imgur.com/5bKBngL.png

sometimes this , with some visual artifacts
https://i.imgur.com/mYlyLGp.png

No textures, strange lines instead of smooth gray mesh (if textures are not set).
The only things I've noticed in the logs that it has some error logged: Invalid module. Missing link to InitPluginModule function (127)
Have no idea if it was there before, never checked since everything was working. That's it.

pos[]={0,0,0};? should be fine AFAIK

and I don't think the texture type is too important in procedurals, but it probably helps

Hi all,
I really can understand how this ImageToPAA works ...

I saw in https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Loading_Screens that my overview picture needed to be
Must be in PAA file format. 2:1 aspect ratio (different aspect are rendered correctly as well, but won't cover the whole area). Ideally 1024x512 pixels.

but when I try to convert with ImageToPAA.exe this is what I get :
Searching for files to add... Added: 1 Checking file list... Checking 'infantry_co' - Appears to be valid. File list checked. Processing infantry_co (631 KB)... Fail to process infantry_co Failed to convert 1 file(s)

quaint jewel Mar 28, 2019, 8:10 AM

#

what is the exact pixel size of your input? and what format is your input?

stark patio Mar 28, 2019, 8:10 AM

#

input is jpg / 1024x512 as recommended.

#

In https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ImageToPAA it is said :
All input textures must have resolution 2^x / 2^y (e.g. 16 / 16, 32 / 32, 64 / 64, 256 /256)

#

then how do I do my overview recommended in 1024x512 ??????????????

quaint jewel Mar 28, 2019, 8:12 AM

#

why how?

#

1024 is multiple of 2, and 512 is multiple of two. both correct

#

maybe try converting it to png first and then piping it into ImageToPAA, maybe it has a problem with jpg

#

also afaik you can just directly use jpg for loading screens

stark patio Mar 28, 2019, 8:13 AM

#

Yes I can but it's heavier

quaint jewel Mar 28, 2019, 8:14 AM

heavier? heavier than what?
Do you mean bigger?

quaint jewel Mar 28, 2019, 8:16 AM

#

what do you mean by "heavier" ?

stark patio Mar 28, 2019, 8:16 AM

#

file weight

#

ok so PNG worked !

quaint jewel Mar 28, 2019, 8:17 AM

#

I don't know. Don't think so. PAA has multiple resolutions of the same image inside it.

#

And yes. You mean file size. not weight. files don't weigh anything

stark patio Mar 28, 2019, 8:20 AM

#

sorry, that's just difference of words between countries ^^
But I confirm : my PAA file is now only 300 KB size

I have a very interesting issue I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot.

#

When I press my radio transmit button for TFAR (currently set to caps key but it doesnt matter what key it's set to) and transmit upon releasing the key I will continue to be able to direct talk without pressing any buttons.

#

In testing we decided to try ACRE as a hail marry pass. I had to press my transmit and direct chat button in that to be able to talk leading me to believe it could be hardware. But I've changed keyboard mouse and tried all USB ports on my PC. No change

#

Now I believe it to be software interference but I'm at a loss as to what software could be interfering with tfar and acre in such a way.

knotty bluff Apr 1, 2019, 1:37 AM

#

to be clear I don't believe this to be a direct issue with TFAR or ACRE2

#

@knotty bluff can you explain your problem in more detail
in TFAR you can talk after having made a radio transmission.
in ACRE you can do that too if you also press the direct chat button?
How's that related to hardware? Don't understand

knotty bluff Apr 1, 2019, 12:38 PM

#

I dont believe it to be. I was just at wits end by this point because I tried all software related issues I could think of. I'll go into better detail shortly so that it's less confusing. Driving to work now I apologize for the confusion.

Does anyone know what controls SVN upload commit speed?

#

like, what actual protocol it uses?

#

I am using SVN to upload a 500MB file and it is using only 17% of my upload speed, making commits very slow (2.5 Mbits/sec, or about 450 kbtes/sec).
When I use WinSCP it uploads at 20 Mbits/sec to the SAME HOST.
When I use a second PC connected to the SAME ROUTER in the same office, it SVN commits to the SAME HOST at 20Mbits/sec (about 2,500 kbtes/sec).
All of my colleagues in their remote homes can SVN commit at a speed that matches their WinSCP connection speed.
Disabling windows firewall and F-secure make no difference
Changing the cable makes no difference
Reinstalling the network card driver makes no difference

Thanks Chris. Well I've tried pretty much everything to fix it. New cat 6 cable, new router, upgraded ISP service, ISP fault checks, replaced the SVN client program, ethernet drivers, uninstalled any non-essential programs and drivers, cleaned up hard drive space, edited SVN config, edited network properties for the ethernet card, etc etc.

#

so far nothing works, except that changing the SVN config file has disabled timeouts, so that's a step forward.

still have 2Mbits upload speed instead of 20

knotty bluff Apr 1, 2019, 9:05 PM

#

ok sorry guys it's been a long day but I'm typing a more detailed description of my issue now.

#

A little over a year ago I began to have an issue where my teamspeak would still have me talking through my PTT key (Tab) after I spoke over the radio utilizing TFAR while in ARMA 3.

#

This meaning when I'm in game and press Caps Lock and transmit then release the capslock to stop transmitting I could still speak and be heard through my microphone as if I were pressing my PTT (Tab) key.

#

The only way to stop this from happening is to press and release tab once. This immediately closed communications off.

#

When it first happened the only change that had been made was a new mouse and keyboard.

#

I tried a number of things including a full delete and re-install of ARMA 3, Team speak, TFAR and a full system restore on my computer.

quaint jewel Apr 1, 2019, 9:11 PM

#

So a stuck-key issue? kinda?
Might be software issue. TFAR overrides your voice activation/ptt manually when you press the ingame transmit key.
I assume ACRE does the same. They have to disable their override to give you control back. Maybe that doesn't work for some reason

But same problem for about a year 🤔

knotty bluff Apr 1, 2019, 9:12 PM

#

ACRE actually does something different.

#

Dedmen I know you're super busy but do you have a moment to voice chat? I can describe this better through voice sir.

#

the issue with ACRE is actually somewhat the opposite. In order for me to talk over the radio in ACRE I have to press both the Caps Lock and Tab key together otherwise nothing transmits.

Yeah atleast for my mate and me in the UK, steam is down right now

oh well.

Thats why troubleshooting always begins with the simple (is it plugged in?)

frosty crypt Apr 2, 2019, 4:21 PM

I mean I restarted my pc, and steam logged in fine, but I restarted again, and it was down, I think I was just unlucky in timing.

there seems to be a little issue

steam is just not opening

Still having issues connecting to my server, unloaded all mods and started it vanilla. Still no idea why I get "Error receiving server version" here is my pastebin: https://pastebin.com/ahUiBN7C

knotty bluff Apr 2, 2019, 6:06 PM

#

you said you unloaded all mods with that pastebin @kind cape ?

kind cape Apr 2, 2019, 6:06 PM

#

I did

#

Or so I thought

#

I unchecked them

#

They're still activated?

knotty bluff Apr 2, 2019, 6:08 PM

#

well it doesn't quite look vanilla but I'm not well versed in the exile stuff. . .

kind cape Apr 2, 2019, 6:08 PM

#

I have to have the exileServer and exile thingy on

#

or the server won't run

#

but I removed like niarms and tryk and all

#

It's just so annoying because all of this worked yesterday

#

the first time I joined it worked perfectly but now it's just

#

Confused

#

I removed all addons and still the same error

#

like what

knotty bluff Apr 2, 2019, 6:08 PM

#

what changed between your first join and the second time you tried to join?

kind cape Apr 2, 2019, 6:09 PM

#

I enabled some mods

#

but I disabled them again

knotty bluff Apr 2, 2019, 6:09 PM

#

is that hosted by a company or your own hosted server?

kind cape Apr 2, 2019, 6:09 PM

#

my own

#

i'm planning to use a company but figured i'd save money by developing it on my own hosted server first

#

then transfering the files

knotty bluff Apr 2, 2019, 6:10 PM

#

are the ports to that "server" computer forwarded properly still?

kind cape Apr 2, 2019, 6:11 PM

#

They are not

#

but shouldn't be the issue as it worked fine the first time

#

and it's hosted locally on lan

knotty bluff Apr 2, 2019, 6:12 PM

#

it's still showing up on the server list for you so yeah.

worldly kettle Apr 2, 2019, 7:09 PM

I realize what I am asking and with little information leaves not much expected help. I am trying to walk through figuring out my brothers crash error, 0C0000005 Status_access_violation. I've had fresh reinstalls, Win10 is a fresh install, added -marco=system in the launch, gone through a bunch of google searches, current dirvers for his amd480, he has plenty of pc to run arma3, more than I have. I know it is his system, his PC doing this. I'm just wondering if there is a process that is easiest to do to figure out the what in his system that is fubaring arma3

desert isle Apr 2, 2019, 7:27 PM

#

-marco=system ?

#

@worldly kettle When troubleshooting, please start from the beginning.
What are the system specs?
When does this error occur?

worldly kettle Apr 2, 2019, 7:39 PM

#

Again, I'll be giving shitty info and I realize that, i-7 (don't have specifics with me at work) FX480, 16gb of ram, win10 64bit

error occurs usually 5-10 minutes after joining a dedicated server that I run, or even when he plays SP on his own. With or without mods does not matter. Some instances where it is constant and we can watch it happen every time he does it are when too much is happening in the mission or he enters a vehicle.

#

and yes the -marco=system was just something I tried for him after seeing it mentioned more than once in the official forums and on steam discussions.

desert isle Apr 2, 2019, 7:41 PM

#

There is no command called marco

#

there is malloc

worldly kettle Apr 2, 2019, 7:43 PM

#

ah shit, sorry, malloc. Again, going off memory and typing these questions at work.

#

What specifics are best for me to bring to the table to get help. I realize his system specs in more detail, but what crash report should I have handy?

desert isle Apr 2, 2019, 7:46 PM

#

The crash itself may be related to his system, so that should be the first point of order.

wise barn Apr 2, 2019, 7:48 PM

#

is a USB audio device involved?

desert isle Apr 2, 2019, 7:49 PM

#

lol, that too

worldly kettle Apr 2, 2019, 7:56 PM

#

There was a USB controller but I had him remove that. Also removed headphones that were plugged into audio jacks and ran it without them to try.

#

I'll make a effort this evening to get proper system specs and have him run on the server and forward me a crash report.

wise barn Apr 2, 2019, 7:59 PM

#

look for the motherboard model: download all drivers from the company homepage and manually install them. same goes for GPU and any other device connected

#

never let windows install drivers

#

if that doesn't fix the problem: revert to win8.1

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

something else to check: make sure the onboard graphics / i7 graphics are disabled on BIOS/UEFI level

clear fox Apr 2, 2019, 8:02 PM

if i'm just hosting an Apex protocol mission, is it considered a dedicated server?

Arma makes no difference if local or web hosted

clear fox Apr 2, 2019, 8:09 PM

#

cause I've configured firewall & port forward and it seems to work because I can see that Arma creates upnp rules in my router but friends see can't connect to server when trying to get server info

wise barn Apr 2, 2019, 8:10 PM

Does your ISP provide you with IPv4 or IPv6?

clear fox Apr 2, 2019, 8:10 PM

v4

wise barn Apr 2, 2019, 8:11 PM

Set your port forwarding as written on the wiki page, restart your router and game, let them retry to connect

#

Best would be direct connect.

my game is downloading the workshop mods over and over, giving me an update canceled after having basickly downloaded the mods twice

Didn't have mod keys

#

Has anyone come across the problem of Arma 3 taking screenshots whenever you move?

kind cape Apr 3, 2019, 11:39 AM

#

never heard of it actually

#

Did you accidently rebound the screenshot button somehow?

latent flicker Apr 3, 2019, 11:40 AM

#

are you using windows 10 ?

bitter blade Apr 3, 2019, 11:52 AM

#

He is using Windows 10. I haven't heard or seen this before. I'm at work at the moment so can't do a full check to see if he's done anything like a rebind. My initial thought was a stuck F12 but it only does it if he moves. Next thought was he's remapped it to 'W' or something but it doesn't matter in which direction he moves??

quaint jewel Apr 3, 2019, 11:55 AM

#

Does the screenshot happen when he moves. Or when he presses W?
There are other movement keys besides W

bitter blade Apr 3, 2019, 11:58 AM

#

Just double checking with him. He said it happens when he's moving irrespective of in which direction but I need to check that he means back and sideways not just N, S, E, W

#

We're both at work communicating via texts 😃

strong steeple Apr 3, 2019, 1:54 PM

Is he looking around with the ALT key?

#

While taking said screenshot

uncut trellis Apr 3, 2019, 1:56 PM

game screenshots, steam screenshots or desktop screenshots?

Snapchat screenshots?

that would be weird but I guess its a possibility

#

oh well i'll work on it for a while and see what happens

#

I would call this a bug except that I'm probably one of three people on the planet who doesn't use WASD

vocal sequoia Apr 4, 2019, 1:14 AM

#

So its probably well-known, but I kinda accidently broke the infantry showcase

#

The contact at the first point ended with just #5 and I (#2).... and the waypoints had us go to the village which completely ignored the first objective? And... it just sequence broke everything.

#

Ironically, this is the only time in dozens of tries I was even able to get to the village

#

I want to actually experience it as it is, and be immersed.

proud storm Apr 4, 2019, 8:14 PM

#

Why are you having so much trouble with it do you think?

#

@vocal sequoia

#

What difficulty level are you playing on?

vocal sequoia Apr 4, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

Not sure.

If talking difficulty-wise: Im horrible at situational awareness. Maybe 20% small 13 in, 1366x768px screen and 80% im bad at enemy spotting

If accidental sequence break - squad leader never activated first task before dying. Everyone but I (2) and 5 died. 5 took command and just did MOVE commands to village

#

.
....I kmow youre a v. popular Arma YTer so ill be mocked bad... but im on recruit

#

Sequence break was on recruit w/regular ai

#

Sorry I took so long, I passed out from a long day. Barely ate b/c not enough time

Lastly about the situational awareness - I don't imagine my real life bleeding into game, but i'm nearsighted IRL extremely badly; like I cant read my screen after 0.75 armlengths

@lone sonnet too many mods int here that each have issues.

@brave breach It depends on which servers you are trying to join. Unload all the mods you may have, then join an official vanilla (no mods) server. Do you still bet kicked? Whats your ping? Have you been BE banned?

brave breach Apr 6, 2019, 4:40 PM

#

I have joined a no mod server and did not have any problems in playing the game the ping on the server I do play on does have low ping so maybe thats a problem too and no I have not been banned as of yet and I am talking to the server owners and they tell me I am not banned !

look up your mainboard model, go to the company website and download all latest drivers (chip set is the most important)
MANUALLY install all mainboard drivers.

it could be that your USB drivers are outdated

#

once you've done that, test it with onboard sound. if you get no errors, update the drivers for your USB audio device and test with that again

#

also check for firm ware updates (interface)

i'm having problems with my map toolbar being grey instead of black? anybody know a fix?

severe sierra Apr 8, 2019, 12:40 AM

Has anyone else had this issue? I built a little multiplayer base mission for my friends and I to train and goof off in, and I have 8 slots available, but no matter what slot you join, say I select the squad leader and my buddy chooses the sniper, we spawn in with the same equipment, usually following whatever class I chose to be in the game

So, what the hell happened to CUP after this latest update?

strong steeple Apr 8, 2019, 7:53 AM

#

Why don't you go ask in the CUP discord @swift berry

swift berry Apr 8, 2019, 8:28 AM

#

No one responded.

weak bramble Apr 8, 2019, 8:57 AM

#

What's your issue Frank?

strong steeple Apr 8, 2019, 9:11 AM

#

Check the changelog on their website or be a lot less vague about your question. @swift berry

swift berry Apr 8, 2019, 9:12 AM

#

Ok, they updated the mod..the stuff shows up in the list in traders but. There's no pics or ability to purchase the stuff. Can't spawn it either.

strong steeple Apr 8, 2019, 9:14 AM

#

CUP is in no way on earth responsible for what your trader can and can't do.

#

Ask whoever made that trader of yours.

#

It's CUP's issue if it occurs when only running CUP mods and nothing else.

Hi, need help troubleshooting, got rpt filled with 17:52:42 Unit O Alpha 3-2:2 (0x838d8140) - network ID 2:4616 17:52:42 - no person can grow up to a 2GB in size, it happens once in 5-10 server restarts and haven't notice this prior to 1.90 update

#

the usual rpt size is no more than 10mb in worst case

#

not to mention the fps drop while it happens

#

i can't see a question from you on our discord, nor that you ever joined it

oooooehhhhh.... plot twist

Hey guys, just got a new PC and everything is great apart from ARMA

#

I've had a couple of random crashes where my screen just completely freezes and I cant do anything

#

My PC only crashes in A3, I have no problems in any other games including BFV, Squad, CSGO etc.

#

i5 9600K @ 5ghz, 16GB Ram and RTX 2060

#

I've had a look at the rpt although Im not really sure what Im looking for

Win10, usb audio device?

kindred blade Apr 8, 2019, 9:22 PM

#

Windows 10 and yeah USB audio

#

HyperX Cloud II

wise barn Apr 8, 2019, 9:23 PM

#

Arma doesn't like win10 and USB Headsets
Try your onboard sound for a while and see if you still get crashes

kindred blade Apr 8, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

Arma is so stupid haha

#

Alright I'll give it a try!

latent flicker Apr 8, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

"Arma doesn't like win10" can i ask why ??

wise barn Apr 8, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

It's not, it's the BS called win10. The crap that has been in beta since release...

#

@latent flicker
Because win10...?

kindred blade Apr 8, 2019, 9:33 PM

#

I mean, if a USB headset causes crashes, that's pretty stupid...

wise barn Apr 8, 2019, 9:34 PM

#

you can play arma perfectly fine on vista 32/64, win7 23/64, win8 and win 8.1. but not on win10. MS fucked up horribly with the 2017s creators update. that's when all this BS started to happen

latent flicker Apr 8, 2019, 9:43 PM

#

but 6th and 7th + cpu generations cant run on windows 8.1 and lower ...only windows 10 ...Microsoft stopped supporting these new CPUs in the older version of windows to force them to use Windows 10

#

i have i3 7100 i tried to downgrade to windows 8.1 i received no drivers ...no updates ..windows update stopped working

#

wise barn Apr 8, 2019, 9:47 PM

#

@latent flicker
that's just not true

#

sorry, read that wrong

#

scratch what i said

#

well, as you can see... MS is a bunch of a**hats

#

Fing up win10, deny all knowledge of Fing it up, blaim the users and 3rd party devs

#

but 6th and 7th + cpu generations cant run on windows 8.1 and lower

(but then again, why can i run my i5 9600k perfectly fine on win8.1.....?)

latent flicker Apr 8, 2019, 9:51 PM

#

uh...what ? can you ??

wise barn Apr 8, 2019, 9:51 PM

#

📎 win81.PNG

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

latent flicker Apr 8, 2019, 9:52 PM

#

maybe its only for 6th and 7th generations after all 🤔

wise barn Apr 8, 2019, 9:53 PM

#

you're not completely wrong though. there are only win10 drivers for my board available. but except the onboard audio driver, i could install all others

#

and since i use an external sound device, i couldn't care less

latent flicker Apr 8, 2019, 9:54 PM

#

and can you use windows update normally ?

wise barn Apr 8, 2019, 9:56 PM

#

sure

#

i have automatic updates deactivated though

kindred blade Apr 8, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

I may have fixed my crashes

#

Was either down to a couple of mods or it was a profiles thing

#

access violation error etc

fringe salmon Apr 8, 2019, 10:48 PM

#

with ace you get a nice white triangle marker with player names next to them, the problem i have is the green rifleman marker is also showing up so its a double up marker, anyway to remove the green riflemen marker?

fast pagoda Apr 9, 2019, 1:49 AM

#

hello there, does anyone know why this is happening? my server is working fine for most players, except a few who when connect seems to give a message that they are looking for port 2303 which is default port but non of my servers are on that port.

I guess it must not have been the offical CUP discord then.

anyone here who had to deal with a stucked shooting loop?

#

https://youtu.be/yt_IUOaeAPw

#

this is happens on our server and even played as vanilla too

#

of course i have tried to reinstall everything - it did not solve the problem

#

unfortunately both client and server logs do not show anything interesting

strong steeple Apr 9, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

I thought that was an issue with server communication

humble pike Apr 9, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

do you mean topper or me 😄

silent fern Apr 9, 2019, 5:49 PM

#

hi, my server keys are not working i put all the mod server keys in the server's keys folder and i still cant join the server those mods.

humble pike Apr 9, 2019, 7:31 PM

#

i solved my problem, i had to to with a F.A.S.T generating wrong basic.cfg's

strong steeple Apr 9, 2019, 9:50 PM

#

yours @humble pike but I see you tackled that already 😛

#

any chance one of the mods isn't signed at all?

#
