Who is hosting the server anyway? You or your Russian friends? That person needs to open the ports for the arma server in their router. (2302-2306 UDP) And have that point to the internal network/LAN IPv4 address of the computer running the server. (can be in the ranges: 192.168.x.y/172.16-31.x.y/10.x.y.z) The people loggin on to the server need to connect to the (external) IPv4 address, which the hoster sees when visiting whatsmyip.net in a browser.
@pine kite Big danke!
Anyone knows how to fix the Steam error code: 2, Steam error message: Fail - generic failure, when trying to publish a mod on the workshop?
close steam completely, relaunch it and retry pushing with publisher
if that doesn't work, try again later
steam being steam
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I have this problem for many weeks now, even reinstalled the tools
But it seems to appear only on my PC. Uploading the mod via my old v server worked 👀
strange...
perhaps firewall blocks it
Hm these are the inbound rules https://prnt.sc/unyuwl
Those icons do not really tell anything on their properties.
Also, isn't publishing a workshop item an outgoing thing?
Which should be open by default in Windows.
I have not seen anything outgoing from arma
But disabling the firewall did not help either
@stone sigil What path is the folder of the workshop mod-thing stored in?
Desktop/Modname/addons... The path should be correct
Ok, nevermind, found a link about Steam with an error code 2 regarding Sniper Elite 3. Was to do with folder/file access rights. But that place should be no problem for your user to access with any application
Should I try the upload with VPN if that would be a network thing?
VPN won't make a difference I guess. I don't know how uploading to the workshop works at all. But since it is a Steam thing I guess there would be log files in some hidden Steam folder in Appdata folder under your user.
I'm out of ideas 😅
https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/230449-publisher-error-code-2/
I get the same errors in the arma Publisher logs
Well if you read the link at the bottom of it it points to here: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Publisher What parameters did you set?
Beside the mod path I enter a name, select an image + tags
How these parameters can be wrong
I don't know, provide an example of what you used. Maybe some typo or character breaks up the path.
paths with spaces in it can easily mess up your command.
Need to be enclosed in "" quotation marks.
Good day to you. i have a question concerning ARMAIII, anyone else having high ping issues on official servers?
Where do you live?
Honestly, it is 1 in the morning
VPN won't make a difference I guess. I don't know how uploading to the workshop works at all. But since it is a Steam thing I guess there would be log files in some hidden Steam folder in Appdata folder under your user.
@pine kite It actually worked with vpn 😮
🤔 ❔ 🤷
Some of my players are running into RPT spam of 19:09:30 Unit B BluFor B1:1 (0xcde4e140) - network ID 20:54 19:09:30 - no person Any idea how to resolve this? - Here EPE manager idk if that helps any 19:17:01 EPE manager release (43|215|0)
If anyone has an in-depth guide on reading RPT stuff, I would love to learn more to better diagnose issues for my community.
I have problem with Arma FPS
Im playing arma on 40-50 fps but every 5-6mins fps falls to 5 fps for 40-50 seconds
fps drop happens when cpu usage randomly drops to 20% usage while playing arma and then after 40-50 seconds it comes back to 70% usage
idk what it is happening
but i need help
arma on HDD or SSD?
HDD
move it to an SSD
Laptop
Get better laptop
clone 2.5" HDD
remove 2.5" HDD
insert 2.5" SSD
flash 2.5" ssd with image of 2.5" HDD
done
🤨
Is there any software fix?
no
Because it really sounds like a hardware issue (unless mission is messed up), so can't really do anything against it
how big is your HDD?
@fringe salmon
500
Thanks,can you send me 100e
no, but if you get me your location i can send you sites with job offers 😉
but seriously
-18
nothing you can do
Well, @fringe salmon can have a look at Taskmanager and see which application is regularly popping up in the top CPU load precentages.
Or disk usage through resource monitor.
Wether or not you can prevent the lag is another story. Might be necessary tasks the OS does.
Yo
so, I like to play music through my mic while flying heli's in koth right
and, what i used to do is tape down the caps lock button
but people said to double tap the caps lock button to leave it on right
it does nothing, little help?
alright I have no idea if anyone can help but i'm at the end of my rope
so I recently got a new pc and installed arma on it and i configured the settings to my pc's resolution, graphics, ect; instead of the default arma pre-set. I left it at that and exited. but I booted it up and tried to play single player campaign and as soon as I clicked the button for campaign, arma froze and presumably crashed (It just froze and i couldn't even stop the app from task manager). I looked for everywhere for my exact situation and tried all the troubleshooting solutions i.e: verify integrity of files, uninstall and reinstall arma, and restarted my pc as well. it also does the same thing if i try to change profiles as well. other than that I can start it up fine and go on my setting. sorry if this is too much but I'm desperate.
Graphic settings shouldn't crash your game, although the default settings (auto-detect) are the best. Unless you mess with the memory allocator, that can mess up stuff...
Do you get any errors? What does your RPT log say?
anyone know why my game runs so bad
My pc should be able to run it well, but its still like 40fps on minimum settings
The game may runs bad when there's unoptimized things, eg MODs, Missions, Scripts, Servers, etc
Also, is 40FPS “so bad?”
yes it is bad
My pc should be able to run it well, but its still like 40fps on minimum settings
Don't use minimum settings, that only makes things worse. Use Autodetect. Also, 40 FPS is pretty good for Arma.
Also since you actually gave us no info, we can't say much
Don't use minimum settings, that only makes things worse. Use Autodetect. Also, 40 FPS is pretty good for Arma.
@desert isle Yeah, people have been saying the same thing on forums.
They're not wrong.
Its not a high FPS game
How come when I export my nap to mp it's doesn't create a file there
So what is the problem with Arma?
Could be any of the mods, or even the modified version of ACE which is causing that...
yeah even normal ace does that, thx i tried asking on the ace forum but got no response
If it's a bug you can report it on their GitHub, or you can ask around on their Slack.
However if I recall correctly they should work with AI
@weary sky I didn’t get any errors, it just froze and stuck on the main menu
@weary sky I and I dunno how to get to the RPT log, but I had to restart my whole computer to get out of it because ctrl alt esc got out of arma but I couldn’t even click on anything cuz it had the arma cursor on them
Ever since I got my new router, my friends try to join my server and it just says "server not responding." I've checked my router and while I have the server open, UPnP opens ports 2302,2303,2304,2306. What changed when I got a new router?
did you also get a new contract / change of data limit / change of connection speed with it?
No
2:00:09 Warning Message: Addon 'CUP_AirVehicles_Motorplane' requires addon 'CUP_WheeledVehicles_Core'```
the hell does that mean?
lemme guess... you're running a modpack?
i do
steam workshop
got a link?
which mod? ace compatibility (bundled pack) or the CUP one?
the bundled one: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1835439845
the cup pack?
from this collection: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=583575232
ah, so not a modpack. good
does the mod order on .cfg (trying to connect a headless client) have anything to do with that error?
2:00:09 Warning Message: Addon 'CUP_AirVehicles_Motorplane' requires addon 'CUP_WheeledVehicles_Core'
this indicates that CUP Vehicles got corrupted during download.
use the steam launcher to repair the mod
2:00:05 Conflicting addon ace_compat_rhs_gref3 in 'addons\rcs_ace_compat_rhs', previous definition in 'z\ace\addons\compat_rhs_gref3'
this is up to th creator of the ace compats to fix
thank you
Hey guys. So for my unit when some people join the server they get stuck in the loading screen. Any way I can fix this is kicking then multiple times. Any other way?
Them*
What errors to they have in their RPT files?
And does the server has any errors?
Dont worry. I found a script that can fix it. Thanks for the concern
I am having this bug can anyone help?
I click play and it just keeps auto tabbing me out and the only way to fix it is to end task
@left yacht I suggest waiting a few mins. If it still dont work try reinstalling arma.
when i go on a server it says Steam Authencation failed and dosent let me join the server
can someone help me please
what do you mean is your steam on
yes
Need help the serverblend setting up my config file and more.
you can contact ServerBlend support to do that for you
I know and do. But takes forever
So for some reason, the eden editor doesent want to load
does anyone else suffer from getting kicked by battle eye client after it times out? is this something i can fix on my side? can someone recommend a fix? i looked on the internet but the answer i got wasn't particularly concise and my brain has been smoothed by the internet enough that im not willing to read a page of text if i can try and ask here first
im not willing to read a page of text if i can try and ask here first
@fringe salmon
If the answer is on a page of text and you can't be bothered to read it, I don't imagine anyone's going to waste their time explaining it to you. We help users help themselves, we don't spoon feed them or wipe their noses.

Keep getting addons/jets/functions_f_destroyer.pbo verify failed when trying to connect to warlords 2.00 servers on RC can anyone else verify if they have this issue? I have tried verifying local files and deleting the pbo and associated bisign and re-verifying. And still cant connect
i had a problem where when i load into a map (altis) it would be stuck loading the textures so the ground would be white or textures unloaded then immediately crash. i switched from profiling beta to normal beta, fiddled with parameters and reset them to default, turned all my mods on and off, verified the game files, updated my drivers, updates directx12 but it’s still not working and the error i’m getting is the most generic one
any ideas for fixes? ( i also uninstalled and reinstalled arma, it’s an 0xc0000005 error btw :o )
Is there any way to make the AI less retarded? There was literally a soldier looking at another and they just stared intently at each other, they both had ammo, they started shooting at other targets even. Any help to make them more smart would be much appreciated
@fringe salmon Only mod that makes ai less dumb is lambs, mostly incorporates buildings and cqc into the ai behaviour and lets them actually assault positions.
yeah lambs danger and suppression mods make AI actually good, i’d recommend downloading them
@mystic pilot well I wouldn't go that far, they still like to completely ignore waypoints once they have made enemy contact. And once that happens, like half of them will be bugged and even once the enemies are dead and I manually set them to safe, they still won't listen to any waypoints.
i like lambs a lot simply bc the AI push onto your position and they aimbot a little less, but yeah there r those problems too ig
Vcoms pretty good to, but i had issues with them completely abandoning an AO
arma 3 and alt tabbing= crash, is there other way than just play in windowed lowered resolution?
go to launcher parameters and tick no pause, or on the steam 'set launch options' for arma just type in -nopause
so now when you alt tab the game will continue running and it wont crash hopefully @fringe salmon
"
18:02:35 SteamAPI initialization failed. Steam features won't be accessible!"
I think that may be a problem with my server
@fringe salmon you can also open the map before alt tabbing, works for me
noted
I was crewing around in eden, and low and behold, "mission terminated, DLC required to play is not owned" like what? is tanoa DLC?
yup, part of Apex DLC
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_DLCs_Overview
Mission may have a DLC restriction, regardless the terrain is a part of an Expansion or not. eg. You can't launch DLC showcase missions if you don't own, even if is in Altis
@fringe salmon
"Include file userconfig\VQI_Settings\VQI_Settings_Diver.hpp not found."
But its in the folder
Arma 3\Addons@VQI_DIVER\userconfig
did you enable filepatching?
How do I do that?
and second; you need to move it to Arma 3\userconfigs\VQI_Settings
client-side: in the launcher, go to Parameters -> All Parameters, and under Advanced you'll find a checkbox 'Enable File-Patching'
server: add -filePatching to the command line
Wait im confused is the hpp file supposed to be in the userconfigs file or in a folder thats in userconfigs
the file needs to be <path to Arma>\Arma 3\userconfig\VQI_Settings\VQI_Settings_Diver.hpp
Thank you so much
I have a problem I have an gtx 1650 súper an amd ryzen 5 3600 and 16 gb ram but my game has “bajones” i don’t know how to say it in English the FPS are well but they go to 10 in 1 second and go up again constantly
Things may get messy when you've not optimized MODs, mission, script, server, whatever. Try it in singleplayer and vanilla
Try autodetect your video settings
I did that and it goes to ultra it goes well FPS but they go down for a second and up
Are you there?
I'm not a hardware expert but seems your spec is fine. And just checked your Steam profile, you've just hop into the game, so suppose you don't use any MODs... Hm
@tawny smelt
Game installed on HDD or SSD?
Your HDD is just to slow. Move your game to a SSD to counter the micro studder
I don’t have an ssd
Get one then ;)
And my hdd is a good one I think
Apparent not
And there’s no temporary solution while I gather money for a ssd?
Nope
Cause im 13 and in my country is ilegal for kids to work
Well then thanks for your help
Im trying to select a mission in the mission selection menu, however it just doesnt start up the mission. It loads for a bit then kicks me back to the selection menu
could anyone help out?
Check the .RPT file in the Arma3 folder in your user hidden Appdata folder. Maybe it has more info on the cause.
Telling the mission could help people identify if it is likely the mission being badly written.
On my server or on my PC?
i dont see anything out of the ordinary in the RPT file
when i go to my log viewer
Hey guys, I have a problem when I am on the server and playing as zeus I can remote control units for first 10min and then I can only see what AI sees but I can not control them(I can ads), did anyone have this problem? Headless is active on the server. There was a situation with 2 zeus-es in a game, one can control AI and the other one can't.
@maiden grove You didn't say up to that point that it was a multiplayer session. Now that you did: both I guess. And maybe look into eventviewer of windows around that time.
Your generic description of it crashing is impossible to find a cause for.
I'm editing a scenario just to remove some mods, could I just remove the class items or do I need to make sure the numbers are back in order?
{
className="MG8_core";
name="Mighty GAU-8/A Avenger";
author="Zabuza";
};```
Thats what im talking about
there can not be a missing item number in this array. if you do this, you have to correct all following numbers
{
some foo;
};
class Item60
{
some foo;
};```
is not gonna work
OK thought i'd check
hello i have a little problem so i want to join an online game and everytime the game says: Battle Eye, Game Restart and i restartet the game and the launcher now a couple of times
You need to enable BattlEye from Launcher
ah i didnt see that thanks
Hey I was wondering someone can help me figure out an issue. I want to make it so a trigger can't be fired until another trigger is fired first.
I've tried looking for it online but could only find 5 to 6 year old videos where I couldn't read the scripts.
Oh sorry
Could someone please DM why when I try to talk to people in game, that they cant hear me. I tried maybe thinking that I needed to switch mics but there is no setting for that,
@languid perch
arma uses whatever is set as default input device in your windows settings. check what device is set there
There’s a strange problem I have after walking a few feet in editor mode, my gun sways like I’ve been running. I’ve tried disabling fatigue but it didn’t work
Please ping me if you know how to fix it
I have a preset loaded and it won’t let me unload it.
Why?
Don’t know. I close the game and I’m allowed to edit mods in launcher and the mods don’t show up in the launcher and it doesn’t let me unload but they show up in game
Did you ever tried this?
Ah. I’ll try that tomorrow
Whenever I try to change the visibility of my workshop item it gives me this generic error:
UNABLE TO CHANGE VISIBILITY
There was a problem changing the visibility of this item (15). Please try again later
Anyone knows why?
The steam account is a new account, it owns Arma 3, it has the ability to add friends (so it's not in the "protected" area,...)
Via Steam or Publisher?
Via Publisher it says "success" but when I go to the page itself it still says "friend only". When changing through steam browser it gives that error
Some Google search suggest wait is the only thing? Never heard of this issue by myself
Hm I see
Yeah I did some Googling too, found out about the 5 dollar thing. Also found something about the mod size being 0 bytes, but mine shows 161MB so should be good
I've added my main account as contributor too, but as a contributor you can't change visibility it seems :(
Do you need steam guard enabled? This account is used for steamCMD automation and steam guard just ruins any automated steamCMD stuff over long periods of time
Yup that did it! Enabled steam guard, now I have the option to change its visibility. Going to try to disable steam guard again and then see if it remains public
Thanks for looking into it polpox
Hmm, noted to my brain
It remained public. So enabling steam guard, setting to public, then disabling steam guard did the trick :)
My friend ran into the "status access violation" issue, how would he fix it
this is the most generic error message ever. nobody can tell what happened.
if this error happens frequently, send him here for troubleshooting.
@fallow owl
hi, do you think this is a solvable issue on a linux server? (or it's an issue at all)
there is a lot of this 'spam' in the log
rhsusf_vehicles```
trying to post the server log, the mods are loaded
downloaded it again yesterday
its a linux server, permissions given, files lowercased
rhsusf
redownload / verify installation
i did redownload every mod, i verified and tried to unpack randomly selected pbo's from the mods
well, you have to do it again... the mission requires rhsusf_vehicles which is not being loaded by the server.
because: missing
how old is the mission you are trying to load?
i will, just fyi, I sent a pastebin
the mods are however symlinked from the workshop folder, but they are reachable
how old is the mission you are trying to load?
latest, kp_liberation, 22days old
the mission works fine the AI works, mostly
this is just spammed in the server log, and its not just RHS, cup also
?
what is not clear?
post a full RPT please
something is clearly 🦆ed up
mods are getting loaded only partially
cup weapons and units
also rhsusf
you need to check your symlinks
yeh... i'd bet your symlinks are the issue
dom@themachine:[~/servers/arma3/@CUP_WEAPONS/addons]: ll | grep cup_weapons_pk
-rwxrwxrwx 1 dom dom 145400715 Oct 1 00:56 cup_weapons_pk.pbo*
-rwxrwxr-x 1 dom dom 571 Oct 2 15:55 cup_weapons_pk.pbo.cup_weapons-1.16.2.bisign*
dom@themachine:[~/servers/arma3/@CUP_WEAPONS/addons]:```
everyone has read access
¯_(ツ)_/¯
and the path is accessible thru the link
i'll try to see later if the same mods/mission combination would throw the same logs on windows too
im not sure if this is the correct place to ask but on my hud my vehicle speed isnt showing and in tanks/turrets my zero distance isnt showing
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/556263035723841537/762388789271592990/unknown.png (spedometer)
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/556263035723841537/762388937452683334/unknown.png (zero)
very likely a mod issue
it is a mod issue, although im not sure as to which mod(s) are causing it
divide all your loaded mods in two, load up one half and see if it's still there. then load up the other half. if the issue is still in the second half, split that also in two parts, repeat
narrowed it down to
bCombat
CBA_A3
CCG Mod
FFAA MOD
i guess you can rule your CBA
FFAA is also well maintained iirc
no clue what the others are
never heard of
it was ccg mod
it was for a specific server that i havnt been on in years
thank you very much for the advice
👍
Hello I have an issue with OPCOM can't find any groups for faction. It happens in ALiVE when I setup the insurgency mission. Basically it spawns in CSAT instead of talibans. Any help is appreciated!
@torpid marsh go to your taliban faction in eden and look under groups
Then look for
Infantry
Mechanized
Motorized
Armor.
(Theres one more i cant remember i think)
If those groups arnt there by default you have to use orbat creator or make your own config patch
If those groups are there double check your opcom module
So if I am missing let's say apc group from the drop down menu then I have to use orbat creator or patch it for the opcom to work?
as i said if the before mentioned groups dont exist in the faction
you will have to do one of the two, or the groups wont be compatible
So starting yesterday night, arma won't work, just get a endless black screen
is anyone avaible for support right now
what kind of "support"?
i need help installing a map and i dont know were it goes
i looked everywere for a mod folder in my arma 3 directory
just to clear things up:
terrain or mission?
its a terrain i think
"i think" doesn't help me
il give u a link to it
what did you download, and where?
ok, i'll stop you right there
this so called "terrain" is the worst crafted piece of 💩 ever.
it is so bad, it will cause you way more headache than joy. trust me, i've been around long enough to judge that
errors all the way
ok thank you
if it comes down to mods, especially terrains, go for the steam workshop
thanks
👍
can anyone help like arma just is not working whatsoever i have reinstalled it, verified game files, restarted my pc and all
it says' not responding on task manager and just will not get out of this black screen
Hey folks, this the right place to ask about a mod issue?
If the MOD has a dedicated place to report issues/troubleshooting, it's always better to report there
ahhh that's the problem 😅 I'm unsure which mod is breaking the game this way.
Either way, here might works
I'll take the c h a n c e, thanks ^^
I've got an issue where Alt-clicking in editor scenario play causes my char. to teleport around the map. This wouldn't be an issue, but I'm using the ACE map tools to practice artillery. Anyone know which mod this might be so I can go yell at it?
I'm rolling with ACE, various weapon mods, ACHILLES, TFAR, MCC
to find out what mod causes issues:
https://discordapp.com/channels/105462288051380224/141866231362879488/762390136935153664

Thankie! that's a good call
try mcc and achilles first
Hey im trying to find where i can change the starting weapons for the livonia Antistasi mod does anyone know which file im looking for?
Hey, I'm trying to link my BI account and steam account, but even with 2 factor authentication on it won't link. Any ideas what would help?
GrimJack#3493 This is the community discord for Antistasi, better ask here: https://discord.gg/AzsAEC
Is there any way for me to contact someone that could help with my issue like some sort of tech support for the game or anything
Post your questions here and wait for a response
I may try reinstalling windows entirely at this point maybe that will fix it idk
I did post it here
I don’t think anyone else has a issue similar to mine I can’t find it anywhere online or anything
When stops the game responding?
Like it goes through the whole loading addons etc, and then once it fully launches is goes black and stops responding
No
It doesn’t even say arma 3, or any of the stuff that usually comes on screen when arma is loading up
Just black
Go to the steam installation folder and execute arma_x64.exe manually and see if that works
Same?
Yes
There was one time where it said “arma 3” so I thought it was launching properly and then it just went to black again
Like when it shows the logo
Go to your documents folder, look out for the Arma 3 folder. Make a backup of all content (profiles). Then empty that folder and try to launch the game from the steam folder again
I’ll do that once I can get back on my pc
👍
Do you have any idea of what could be causing this?
Not yet. That's what I'm trying to figure out
Well thanks for the help
Don't thank me yet 😉
I am in my arma folder, i do not see any profiles folder
also i do not care if i lose my profiles though
your arma folder in documents contains the .Arma3Profile files
ohh
backup this arma 3 folder and then empty it
once done, start arma from the steam installation folder
I don't see that
all what's inside of it. once you have the backup, empty that folder
that you have an empty Arma 3 folder in documents
in the arma3 folder there is arma3.cfg, arma3-desktop(bunch of #'s).cfg and other, do i need them or do they get emptied
along with the other folders inside arma3
can you post a screenshot of the folder to imgur and post the link here please
jup, correct folder. backup all that's in there and leave an empty Arma 3 folder
and do i delete the folder itself once its emptied now
no, just leave an empty folder
if you launch the arma.exe?
yes
did you try to run arma3_x64.exe as admin?
ok... 🦆...
i'm out of ideas
my thoughts where a) screwed up profile (reason for the backup), and b) read/write permission issues (try to run as admin).
it seems none of that was the cause
and it came out of no where, just closed the game like i have done forever and then when i tried to play again this happened
Omg I’m so happy rn
The issue is fixed
It was a pain in the ass but it’s fixed, just have to literally delete every single file associated with arma and reinstall windows lol
hey guys were can i the latest version of Cba i have subscribed on steam to it and when im editing something i get a popup saying cba needs to be updated
pls help if anyone can
yeah i can help
go to the launcher, exit out of the game and just click on the CBA mod in your mods section, just press repair i believe it says at the bottom right of the screen
You have to click on the 3 dots, then repair correction
Does this issue actually do anything tho? A lot of times mods and stuff has a error that says something random like missing pbo or whatnot and it doesn't actually do anything
ok thanks will do
ok i tried repairing it it still come up
So, one of the instructors in my unit tried to log in as admin but he didnt know the new admin pw so he cant join the server anymore
there is no ban.txt file
and IDK how to unban him
@misty hinge does it just close when you press close and you can continue doing whatever you were doing
@fringe salmon I don't know how you configured the server, but if the instructor's SteamID64 is entered into the server config file as admins[] = {"0123HisSteamID64789"}; then he doesn't even need to enter a password to log in as admin.
cheers
Is he actually kicked from the server whenever he tries to log in as normal player?
Or just in relations to loging in as admin with #login
@torpid marsh
#arma3_scripting is the place to ask
Okay, sorry for interruption
@raven dust i still have that issue it just close when i press close
getting this error on a dedicated server, loaded mods are correct as in the commandline manager and the mission mods, anyone know what the dependency is for?
Warning Message: Addon 'UK3CB_BAF_Vehicles_Chinook' requires addon 'rhsusf_a2port_air'
cheers
Whenever you get those missing whatever errors, press close and if it lets you push through it’s just some random file that isn’t needed or some shit, if it doesn’t let you into the server then close the game, and load the mods that the server is running because it means you are missing one or more
A lot of times I get the same error messages and they mean nothing
Especially with 3cb
And they usually mean nothing, just press close and push through to the server and other times it’s because I forgot a mod
And they usually mean nothing
that's just 🐄 💩
it indeed means something. that something is going wrong
Yeah sure it means that something has gone wrong, but it doesn’t mean what has gone wrong is actually going to do anything to the game or have any negative effects
it does indeed have a negative effect. stuff is not going to work as intended, assets not getting loaded, missions can fail
Alright
im having trouble with my arma, its syas battleye needs to be restarted in order too go in a server, what?
Enable BattlEye from Launcher
I keep getting an error that myself and some of my friends believe is causing me to be unable to host it says: No entry 'C:\Users\jb108\OneDrive\Documents\Arma 3- Other Profiles\StalinPup\mpmissions\tempMissionMP.Altis/mission.sqm.Mission' if anyone knows what to do your help is greatly apricated.
plz someone help. when i host a multiplayer game server for me and my friends they cant see my server. i can play multiplayer fine mostly biggest issue is in the launcher i cant see the official servers list but if i go ingame i can see them and join them. i can also join a few of my pals games and play in those rooms tho not all of my friends i can see i dont have any idea what the issue is
Hi, Team;
I am having an issue with OBS 26.0.2 (most recent update) that is stopping me from streaming ArmA 3 or recording, both as a Fullscreen app capture, and also Display Capture.
The anti-cheat compatibility hook within OBS is slamming against Battleeye I think and not allowing any capture;
Has anyone else experienced this? If so have you found a fix?
Each time I have attempted to log in to a specific server this evening, I get an error message roughly 2 minutes after connecting to the server, and I am then kicked off. The error message lists a different problem every time
The problem is invariably a wrong signature issue according to the message, sometimes with mods and addons but it also shows up in base arma files.
I've messed around with the launch options, verified the files countless times, restarted steam and my computer multiple times, and reinstalled every file that has been listed as having a wrong signature.
I have played on the server for 237 hours with no issue whatsoever until now.
I have pictures of all the messages I have received.
Either you have the wrong mods, or you have different versions of the mods. Which can also mean that the server needs to be updated!
He has the right mods and server is uptodate
he already played 237 hours till he suddenly got this error
we have a few clients with the same problem (99 % of the players have no problems tho)
So what are the exact error messages?
And can you provide a .rpt log from when it happened?
Wrong signature for file XYZ. Sometimes its from mods and sometimes arma default files and everytime its a different pbo 🤷♂️
The only thing I know how to provide is pictures of the error messages
either way I won't be able to do anything about it at the moment as I am about to be in a 4 hour cost report meeting
in that case ask again in 4 hours...
Very well
and make sure you have the .rpt ready
wrong signature for a .p3d? that sounds like an extracted pbo at the wrong location
i dont think the error message will provide any clue since its always a different file
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/764035899712733195/764076069350539264/new_problem.png
again; those errors either mean the mods on the client are broken/outdated, or on the server
yes i know. but i know that's not the case
it must be a weird bug
otherwise it wouldnt be a different pbo/file for every kick
which version does the server have?
because this might be related: https://feedback.bistudio.com/T147191
1.98.0.146373
im having trouble and very much stuff not being able to use mods

Ever tried to do it in vanilla?
Vanilla. AKA no MODs
What do you mean? It worked?
what worked
The game

Then some of the MODs make the game crapped
then ill just wait for them to fix it all
If you wanted to do so, you can do
ok
Have you tried disabling battleeye?
yes i have
I keep getting an error that myself and some of my friends believe is causing me to be unable to host it says: No entry 'C:\Users\jb108\OneDrive\Documents\Arma 3- Other Profiles\StalinPup\mpmissions\tempMissionMP.Altis/mission.sqm.Mission' if anyone knows what to do your help is greatly apricated.
Viper, try not running things from your OneDrive
I've got a bit of an issue, Arma 3 is installed in my D Drive but steam isn't recognising that and thinks it's uninstalled, because of this it isn't updating and it now has a bad version meaning I can't play multiplayer. Know what's happening?
There isn't enough space to move it to C Drive

so, originally I came here for an issue I have with Arma: it says "DX11: out of memory" when I still have 3, 4 and now even 5 GB of RAM free - does anyone have a hint?
or is it VRAM now - I checked the logs:

could be VRAM or too small page file
I had the issue where it would trigger when I was 10.5/12 GB RAM,
I reduced pagefile from something like 12 or 16 GB to (Windows recommended) 2.5GB
still crashed
I removed pagefile entirely - crash @ 7/12 GB RAM 😬 indeed. I will give another try to the page file
I reduced pagefile from something like 12 or 16 GB to (Windows recommended) 2.5GB
still crashed
it needs to be bigger, not smaller
when a GPU can not write to VRAM anymore, it uses the page file on the drive (simplified)
yeah I get the pagefile usage, but I mean, my RAM is available, use it dangit!
other applications also write to the page file, not just games
I have it set back to "system managed"
yeah I get the pagefile usage, but I mean, my RAM is available, use it dangit!
download more 😄
also, I should maybe update my drivers, maybe NVidia messed up recently 😄 (last version 2020-10-07)
latest driver release did nothing more than nerf the RTX 30xx 😂
yeah but the previous one may still be wrong :p
rhaaa dang them!
@wise barn btw you were right, system-managed pagefile (12GB) did the trick 🤝
🤘 👍
hello people! me and my friends are having trouble playing the game co-op
can anyone help us about that ?
we are new to the game so
Having what?
@steady hawk for example, we were trying to play overthrow mode but when I open a server, they cannot see or join
@cerulean cloak @alpine horizon When starting a server, dedicated on hosted multiplayer in the game you need to open ports on your router and server firewall to allow incoming packets to get to the server. Some have luck with just enabling UPnP. I swear by just opening the ports in my router through it's configuration page. Open incoming ports 2302-2306 UDP to the IP of your server-computer. And on a dedicated server (different computer) make sure the same is done in it's firewall. The trouble is that each router manufacturer has it's own way of forcing how to do that through their user interface. And Windows firewall has it's own peculiarities, like not passing traffic when setting up a rule with both limited ports and for a specific application (the server executable). When those pitfalls are solved port forward works 9 times out of 10. The 1 of 10 are people that have a router connection from their ISP that does not support a true IPv4 stack. (Dual Stack Lite) It piggybacks IPv4 traffic over the more modern IPv6, and Arma (3) cannot work with IPV6 addressing at all. Consult your internet service provider to ask if this is the case.
@pine kite Currently, I am having no issues opening UPnP while starting a server. But in my friends case, he is getting an error while doing it. So I was the one who tried to host the server because of that issue but honestly, we have no clue if he needs to be able to forward the ports in able to join someone elses game.
is there any way that we can play on a LAN server maybe through hamachi or some other third parties ?
Only the one hosting the server needs to open the ports for incomming connections. By default outgoing connections, from your friend's computer, to his router, through the internet to you, is not blocked. But by default, your router will block it. As I said, UPnP on your side doesn't allways work.
oh I see, then our problem is completely something else
how about the LAN connections as I mentioned before ?
is there any way that we can play through LAN ?
If he is connected to the same router in your home. Or with a VPN, then it should work (theoretically). But I never tried this myself.
Well, you didn't really explain your issue in detail. So I may be off on my mark. (I jumped to conclusions) But I figured to address the two similar issues in one go.
anyone had issue with A3 redownloading all mods(mods are still physically in !workshop folder) after BSOD? It happend to me second time in a month.
Something gets screwed up in the files that Steam keeps to check for changes on files. There should be a steam guide somewhere explaining how to avoid that. Not specifically for Arma though. Maybe for another game.
Anyone had issue when i press play its saying addon A3_3DEN language requires addon A3_3DEN
verify your game installation
How ?
right click on your arma in the steam library -> properties -> local data tab -> check game for errors
(or something along those lines. my steam is not in english)
or use google
👍
Hey for my dedicated server some people cant join. Once guy was only able to join through friends but the next day he wasnt able to join.
We have tried messing with the firewall
Heck even tried turing it off
By cant join I mean it doesent even show up on there direct connect
?
Hey all, I've been having some trouble with shimmering and aliasing on the foliage in arma 3. I'm not terribly sure what the problem is, as I have FSAA turned up to 4x, PPAA to CMAA, and ATOC to All
Start with Autodetect and adjust accordingly.
Settings are already on autodetect except for view distance. Adjusting any ingame settings serves to only worsen the issue. It's not present on any footage I've seen of the game, so I'm not sure what's up.
For me personally, I disable PIP. This is due to the fact that it is rendering what is behind you unnecessarily. Also, please ensure that you're not using Nvidia software to "optimise"
could also be some thing your graphics drivers have enabled
+1
some extra "beautifying" feature
Ah dw, I've learned long ago that nvidia settings hurt more than they help, especially with older games. Performance is not really an issue, I'm getting 120fps+ in cluttered environments
Oh, I see. I'll look into that
Also I realise that I'm not providing a lot to go off of. Where would I be able to post a screenshot?
Arma is a pig of a game (but we enjoy it), unfortunately a lot of things (like beautification) mess it up.
or use IMGUR and link here
Righto
It's playable when the image is stationary, but when moving the artifacts seem to flicker and it makes it very difficult to spot other motion
What size monitor and what kind of video card?
1920x1080 with a 1080ti
there are also the motion blur etc settings
They don't seem to have any noticeable bearing on this issue. I've tried with them on and off
Oh, and I'd like to look into what you said about my drivers. Unfortunately, I'm not particularly educated on the subject. Mind sharing some more info?
well I have Ati card but it had all kinds of fancy features enabled in the control panel by default
that "enhanced" the picture
Ah, I see. All of my Nvidia control panel stuff is application-controlled but I suppose there could be some other settings lurking about somewhere that slipped past me
its just a possibility
I think there was someone with similar sounding problem a while back and the solution was in the games video settings
just cant remember what it was off the top of my head
@fringe salmon you can reset settings in nvidia control panel or you can reinstall the driver and check the "clean install" option, or whatever it's named. If it's actual errors (that white snow bug) it's probably some transparency stuff or might go away without ATOC, but haven't seen that bug for a long time and not on nvidia cards
if it's just settings maybe it's the transparency grid you sometimes can see clearly when using ATOC, try disabling that. maybe oversharpening has that effect, don't turn that up or try sherpening on off. and with that 1080ti on just 1080p you should try 200% resolution, instead of MSAA and see if that looks better to you. just add SMAA or maybe 2xAA+ATOC if you want the more fluffy trees and don't mind the grid
game still wont launch
[10:14 PM]
Game start failed
Starting the game or BattlEye has failed. still
@here halp
So, I have a weird glitch, for whatever reason audio in some cases are single ear (gun shots, heli rotors, plane/car engines ect) if anyone has a fix, please tell me
if you have some fancy 5.1/7.1 headset/speakers, make sure you set it to stereo in the settings
It might have to do with the fact that I have to use a very unorthodox way of connecting my headset my linking a USB to a PS4 controller and linking my headset to said controller.
🤔
All i found googling is that I can't change/edit my default profile name (which is basically my windows user name). But isn't there any trick/workaround to edit my default profile name without losing my current profile specific settings/achievements?
Profile settings can be copy and paste into your new profile. Achievements aren't handled by in-game profile but Steam so won't lose any
When trying to publish a composition I get the message: Process failed. Action finished successfully.
On my workshop it shows up but is rather bugged with no name an 0.000MB size.
Can you send or check your RPT logfile? maybe it has more info?
Does that happen everytime you try?
tried it multiple times, then restarted Arma and after another couple times it worked

my lens flare is not appearing for stuff like headlights, floodlights etc disabled all my mods and it still isn’t working. any ideas bc i couldn’t find it anywhere else. thanks :o
why is my arma not updaing i checked for update on steam and even re installed
close arma and the launcher
@sour bobcat are you on performance/profiling branch? That'll only be ready tomorrow
ah yes I am ty
do you know why my crosshair is always black even if I change the colours of the acive elements or delete/remake a profile
In Arma all the grass is gone on most base maps (Tanoa, Stratis, Altis) I thought it might have been my mod but I unloaded everything and the issue still is there
Might be one of my settings if anyone knows
Video settings, Terrain
when i click play it says the cloud file provider is not running
@elder sand what's your screen resolution?
What's your internet speed (upload, roughly) ?
1920x1080 and upload like 2.5mb/s
Thanks, then its probably not image size, we'll keep an eye on it
It keeps crashing when I load the game with no mods at all but at loading addons it crashes
Can you pastebin an rpt log? @fringe salmon
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION basically means anything, which means anything could be the issue. Try in vanilla
And when, how?
When and how, I said. Meant situations
Just starting Arma does that?
yes
Then try to verify the game
@dusty lark
I have a problem with battleye when i want to join in multiplayer give me an error sounds like that : "Failed to initialize BattlEye Service: Driver Load Error (1450). Do you want to launch Arma 3 without BattlEye?
And i have this game from tomorrow only 2 hours
Someone can help me ?
@dusty lark did you install the 2.00 Arma update from yesterday?
@dusty lark are you using FACEIT Anticheat too?
Ah! Faceit is blocking old battleye. But with latest BattlEye installed it should work
I'll DM
Is it possible that the profiling version was forgotten to update?
oops, I missed that.
Thanks
when i open my profile in arma i cant change my name and when i press apply or discard it was crash with this report

@fringe salmon are you using Faceit?
@dense zephyr Appdata is also a hidden folder in your user profile folder. In windows 10 the view tab of explorer has a checkmark to uncover hidden files and folders.
How do I get an RPT Log
@quaint jewel I was told to post an RPT log to try figure out why Arma 3 crashes on Loading addons even if I disable addons
See link I posted above
that rpt hsa no info though
there should be more

you don't get logs if you disable logs

yeah but you have logs disabled
Nope

Thats everything in the folder and theres no parameters
not gud 🙃
What would be ways to fix this issue?
I hope this fits into here: Since today it seems that all my menu bars have turned orange when they previously were green. Is this due to the 2.0 Update and can it be reverted? I can provide a screenshot in dms since I cant send it here.
if you go to the game settings there's an option to change the UI colors with different presets
@fringe salmon maybe its a broken mod. Try removing some
I went into game aswell as graphics option. I cant seem to find it there since its not part of the UI I guess. I'm talking about the bars you see when you press escape and go into those menus.
Preset is Stratis (Black) as always for the background, I sadly cannot seem to find orange there. Maybe it gets more clear if I send a screenshot via dm😄
but not to me, i'll bed now
Maybe @obtuse saddle means the launcher options/Active Theme?
Good night, Dedmen!
Post the image on imgur and post the link
Open laucher/top left (gear) options/Launcher options/Active theme about mid page.
My theme is blue actually
On that same page of your screenshot change "Im spiel" to Menu 😉
What I refered to earlier was just the launcher user interface.
Okay, lemme boot up the game again😅 So on the Optionen page I should set it to Menu?
Yes, Optionen/Farben/Pulldown list where you have "Im spiel", make that menu, or however it is called in German. You can customize it or select some presets for the user interface.
Thank you so much, its all sorted out now due to your help^^ Have a good day!
Video settings, Terrain
@steady hawk
Yeah I have already tried that
Even on ultra the grass blades are still gone
So I'm having audio issues every time my pc goes to sleep my game has no audio, I've verified game files, made sure audio drivers are updated any solutions?
don't put your PC on sleep while the game is running...
how can your PC go in sleep-mode when you play a game?
The game still crashes at loading addons theres no mods and its a fresh install
@quaint jewel
When I pause the game when I'm not at my desk it goes to sleep I set it to be like that
And it's not just when it goes to sleep my monitors turn off after my pc is inactive and it does it
how can your PC go in sleep-mode when you play a game?
@weary sky I mean when I'm inactive and come back to play, it's just annoying to reopen my game
don't put your PC on sleep while the game is running...
@wise barn When I'm inactive I made it to where my pc to goes to sleep, I don't put it to sleep
any way to host a server without opening the UPNP just for a friend to join or any way to tell if server you made is actually a server?
If you're AFK long enough to have your PC go in sleep-mode, you should leave the game anyway (especially in a MP environment).
But the solutions that know:
- run the game in Fullscreen mode (not windowed)
- disable sleep mode / increase time before sleep mode
it might just be my PC, It's an old one I haven't built my new PC yet so I'll just wait the week XD
any way to host a server without opening the UPNP just for a friend to join or any way to tell if server you made is actually a server?
@fervent knot Did you port forward?
driving me crazy trying figure out how host a game for play with friend cant figure out
@halcyon bluff not yet got figure that out
My PC is set to turn off screen after 10min and go to sleep-mode after 30min
and I never had the problem of getting it to sleep when in-game (even when I need to do something shortly)
and works on Win7, 8 and 10 🤷♂️
Yeah I think it's just my PC other games do it too, I'll be building my new one in a week so it's no problem
incorrect settings have nothing to do with the hardware 😉
@halcyon bluff
once your PC goes to sleep, all audio input and output sources get disconnected, and arma just doesn't like changes to audio on the fly. it always results in audio loss. nothing that can be done other than not putting your PC to sleep while game is running. simple as that
change your energy settings
I will, I was just checking if anyone knew why it was doing that, my laptop does not do it, but my Desktop does I'll just change sleep mode timer
Spamming @ everyone is one way to get banned...
And please note that a lot of people are asleep now, so they might answer when they're awake again...
no, because it's disabled, but I did see it
well, a lot of people use ACRE/TFAR so have VON disabled 🤷♂️
so?
we're talking about vanilla here
and if it's a bug (aka reproduceable without mods) you should file a ticket of the feedback tracker
dude... if you don't want help why even ask...
well, I can't confirm (or deny) since I don't use it... and I replied only to the @ everyone, since that is considered spamming
someone who is following the #rules
no need to ping me with non-arma related questions...
There seems to be a bug with the AI not respecting the combat mode selection
Ie the ai will still engage enemy even if told absolutely not to, or if told to only fire if fired upon
How do you break the audio sliders I mean cmon
@twin zephyr
Direct chat volume was always on "Effects" volume slider. Unified the volume handling and didn't think of such a weird thing
My tipping point mission is broken, all the ai took me up north
How could I fix this?
The artillery Laser Guided shells, when fired by players or by any commands such as fire and fireAtTarget, are broken - they do not home in on laser targets. They seem to work only when used with the support module (which itself is broken half the time on a dedicated server) or using doArtilleryFire.
This makes any kind of MP coop with LG Arty impossible, as well as custom firing scripts. Thoughts? What fire command should I use in my custom scripts?
my ace interaction isnt working, how do i fix this
yeah ok
Hey @quasi tundra check if you disabled the windows key somewhere in windows settings. I had done that before, thinking it would stop the windows menu from opening but instead it bricked the key altogether. Re-enabling it allowed me to open ace interaction again.
Actually it was a switch on my keyboard that disabled windows key functionality. Hope that helps
so just got the Arma 3 A3 - Antistasi Altis mod any idea what key would stow weopen away? and i forget in base game what's the weopen stow key
I think 0? @fervent knot
okay thanks firguring out server hosting to play with friend and yeah so much to learn for the Antistasi mode
So, an issue i'm running into right now. Is I just created a map, however when I try to host it. The role select screen is blank as if there were no available roles.
are the units playable, and did you set the correct amount of min/max players?
Units are set to playable, I was under the impression with 0 set to both it'd be unlimited. I'll try to make that correction
Looks like it fixed the issue, thanks a bunch @weary sky
it says I am running a modded version of the game, and i have no mods running; their all disabled. What do I do? I cant play coz battle eye kicks me saying
Battle Eye Error: Game Restart Required
Enable BattlEye via launcher
Do you join servers through the Arma3 launchers server browser
Guys i have a question at the moment i play arma with a 1050ti 4 gb does any1 know if there us a way to boost fps cause i have seen YT videos of proplr getting 70ish fps on a 1050ti and help and I would be grateful. Thanks
There are no magic ways to boost fps and performance depends on other hardware too and not just on your gpu. Also singleplayer and multiplayer fps are different.
Auto detecting video settings is a good starting point and then perhaps you can try lowering view distance.
@knotty thunder What Goat said, Also dont crosspost
@cold carbon my function key had messed my windows key up like you said, thank you man!
Do you join servers through the Arma3 launchers server browser
@uncut trellis > Do you join servers through the Arma3 launchers server browser
@uncut trellis > Do you join servers through the Arma3 launchers server browser
@uncut trellis launcher
Oh god what the hell happened there


Uh hi
i have a big problem
I cant join online
Lemme show a Photo gimme a min
There
Click it
Verify your game
wdym?
Ok thanks ill try
gimme a min while i restart

No need to press Enter to post every each your words. That's just annoying and waste of screen space
Ok i wont do it anymore
It finished and said that 1 file was missing so i think it will work now dont know lemme test
Uhh thats the only thing that appears on screen rn
@steady hawk
🤔 It's normal
Check Alt+Tab and see if there's Arma 3
Are you sure you're launching Arma 3 not server?
i click play in this window
And that tab appears and does nothing other that load some things
Try again
Try to disable BattlEye and again, see if works
Ok
same thing Battleeye Dissabled
Wana go on vc soo you can see whats really happening?
No
Ok
Try to switch to Development Branch and back to public
Right click on Arma 3 in your Steam Library > Properties > Beta > development
Wait for the completion of install
Do the first step but switch back to NONE
Restart your computer maybe
Already did that a couple minutes ago
Lemme try now
Same thing
Dont care reinstalling
Retry to verify again
🤔
The verify thing damaged my game soo
@fringe salmon
FALSE. Verify, in no way damages your game.
Well
I tried and didn't open the game after verifying but whatever I'm already reinstalling it
still not working
have you started a default single player?
it doent even let me in the game
it does since you got the main menu open?
yeah
so have you tried the editor or tutorials or singleplayer campaign?
1 tutorial
did that launch?
well have you tried launching it now?
since "does not let me in game" is not what is happening
can you go on vc soo i can show you soo u know whats really happening?
no
I dunno what you are starting but thats the dedicated server
you sure you are launching the Arma3 game on steam?
Yessir
probs you could try launching it from the arma3_64bit exe in its installation folder
Ok lemme try that
you also might have some odd launch parameters set up
youre welcome.
Nope
I am having trouble with Liberation Altis, Chernarus Winter & Unsung all losing game progress when I restart server. Does anyone have any ideas?
Hey there, since the update I cannot seem to give/increase throttle on helicopters and drones. My kerybind was always shift, to double check I went into my settings but could not find any control setting that read "Increase throttle" or something along those lines in the Helicopter and overall settings.
It’s collective raise in helicopter binds

Launcher won’t let me start up a Rama
Arma *
Constantly getting an error message saying it isn’t designed for windows or something

Mhm

From steam. Press play, then takes me to the launcher. I press play in the launcher then get that
Yep, windows 10

myself and my players are all getting "you were kicked from server. steam authentication failed" google has failed me. i turn to you peeps
have you tried verifying the game files on steam?
@uncut trellis 5 times, also reinstalled the whole game 2 times
have you tried running the game form the real exe in its installation folder?
Yes I did
same thing?
Nah
It says
Battle eye error: game restart required
And says I am running a modded version of the game, although I have no mods loaded
Something definitely is blocking it from installing right

@uncut trellis don’t believe so
Well otherwise it would install correctly and run correctly no?

@uncut trellis at first it was running correctly, no issues. Then all of a sudden it stopped working
Out of nowhere
hey i need help
my brother cant join exile servers it keeps saying this you were kicked off the game player wrong signature for file addons/amins_fpbo we unstalled the game and deleted addons and it still doing it
Delete doesn't help, it will just go worse. Verify game
@unreal wasp Is the server set to persistent? Try putting persistent = 1; in your .cfg file. If you need general information on how to set up a server, look at https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/139003-tutorial-installation-configuration-of-arma3-dedicated-server/
and

It is. May have figured this one out. Will advise if our test holds.
I have no idea how liberation works, just thought that might be it. I have spent an annoyingly large amount of time trying to get a server to work.
after a certain time of playing, arma 3 just closes itself with no error message and i dont have a clue what that might be caused by
Perhaps your gpu overheats
nah I don't think so
it barely makes any noise
the fans are set to auto in MSI afterburner and it's a 2060
it makes more noise while I play BeamNG drive than arma 3 so it's unlikely
Maybe Windows Event Viewer can tell more why this crash happened.
Make note of the time it happened and search through the various event catagories in Eventvwr.msc
(you can run that from the start menu)
There is a filter with which you can define the search period.
found an error message
The program arma3_x64.exe version 2.0.146.773 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Security and Maintenance control panel.
at the time that it crashed
Does anyone know why i cant aim up or down?
ik its a weird question but ive searched everywhere and cant find the problem
Situation?
to me or him?
To Hacker
affirm
Well, if you can remember anything that happened, it might be a clue @autumn oasis
it wasn't anything intensive, really.
I have 60fps thruout the gameplay and it suddenly just does that
Any action you performed just before it, some mod or game function.

@pine kite I have like 41 mods loaded for my unit's ops
it was just flying at one point
like I said - it does it at random times during gametime with no particular causation
I mean more info, not describe in other words. What is your situation, MODs, missions, did you tried in editor, empty mission and just you?
Did you push "C" by any chance?
Make sure your keybinds are fine
Well, divide and conquer. Take halve, see if it happens again. If not, load the other, see if it happens again. Take the halve that the crash happened in, and divide that in two again. Repeat.
Firstly, ALWAYS test with NO MODS
aight
Yes, no mods first.
I might just reinstall all the mods first to see if it happens
If there is no issue with no mods, the cause lies in the mods you're using. Then take Vales's advice and berak it down into halves or thirds to see which mod is causing the problem.
Before you reinstall modes, reverify or repair them.
I'm currently stress testing my PC on arma in singleplayer and it's running fine and dandy on stratis with some hefty explosions going on
yeah that
it only happens on an MP server
Some mods have issues in an MP environment.
is there a chance of it being Unsung?
Every MODs have a chance
@tall palm Hi. Is there any changes in enableChannels in last release?
Seems I have behavior that was not an issue previously.
im going into altis on zeus multiplayer but the map is just invisible besides the ocean
though i can still see like city names
@unborn silo what is not working as expected?
I have mission module which disable Global channel on Init.
On briefing I have it disabled. But after mission start it is enabled again. I feel previously it was disabled all the way till mission ends.
disabled channels were reenabled on jip but that was fixed so maybe something is not right with that fix, can I have a repro, if confirmed will be hotfixed. Have you got a ticket?
For now I don't have 100% strict repro recipe. When I figure it out, I will create ticket or post it here.
please don’t wait too long
guys i have an error with a file called addons/functions_f.pbo
and i cant enter in all servers
please don’t wait too long
I'm trying to do it right now. But can't repro at strict vanilla. Seems I need to dig into third party addons
guys i have an error with a file called addons/functions_f.pbo
@mighty kayak
- try to check game file integrity in steam.
- try to remove file and check game file integrity in steam again.
- search for duplicates of this file in game folder. Remove and check integrity.
Hello , i have some strange error on my server ""No entry "bin\config.bin/cfgweapons.muzzleflash_tma" i read all my files but not found . can some of you point me the right place why ?
propably just a broken mod @toxic valve
ok i found only on this page https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_CfgPatches_CfgWeapons on the end , any idea how fix ? i dount now why and on all my files its not any item what called muzzleflash_tma
What Pi says
the muzzleflash_tma its from arma self ? so any broken from my files ?
The error doesn't mean you have to search into bin folder in your Arma 3 install folder. Don't think about it if you don't have a clue about it, just remove the broken MOD, I don't know what it was though
ok understand ,
just thought you could narrow it down which mods is broken .Thanks
Every MOD could cause that kind of error
Ok Thanks i reinstall cup hope its help
