keep it to one channel

tight delta
#

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?

wise barn
#

close steam completely, relaunch it and retry pushing with publisher
if that doesn't work, try again later

steam being steam

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

stone sigil
#

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 👀

wise barn
#

strange...

uncut trellis
#

perhaps firewall blocks it

stone sigil
pine kite
#

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.

stone sigil
#

I have not seen anything outgoing from arma

#

But disabling the firewall did not help either

pine kite
#

@stone sigil What path is the folder of the workshop mod-thing stored in?

stone sigil
#

Desktop/Modname/addons... The path should be correct

pine kite
#

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

stone sigil
#

Should I try the upload with VPN if that would be a network thing?

pine kite
#

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.

stone sigil

#

Beside the mod path I enter a name, select an image + tags

#

How these parameters can be wrong

pine kite
#

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.

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

wise barn
#

arma on HDD or SSD?

fringe salmon
#

HDD

wise barn
#

move it to an SSD

fringe salmon
#

I dont have ssd

#

lol

wise barn
#

this will reduce the lags, maybe even kills it

#

I dont have ssd
best time to get one

fringe salmon
#

Laptop

wise barn
#

so?

#

even laptops can have SSDs

fringe salmon
#

No slots

#

Is there any software fix?

weary sky
#

Get better laptop

wise barn
#

clone 2.5" HDD
remove 2.5" HDD
insert 2.5" SSD
flash 2.5" ssd with image of 2.5" HDD
done

fringe salmon
#

🤨

wise barn
#

Is there any software fix?
no

weary sky
#

Because it really sounds like a hardware issue (unless mission is messed up), so can't really do anything against it

wise barn
#

how big is your HDD?
@fringe salmon

fringe salmon
#

500

wise barn
#

1TB SSD is less than 100€
definitely worth the upgrade

#

i recommend WD blue

fringe salmon
#

Thanks,can you send me 100e

wise barn
#

no, but if you get me your location i can send you sites with job offers 😉

#

but seriously

fringe salmon
#

wise barn
#

nothing you can do

fringe salmon
#

dammit

#

smh

pine kite
#

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.

fringe salmon
#

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?

clever sphinx
#

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.

weary sky
#

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?

lyric wave
#

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

steady hawk
#

The game may runs bad when there's unoptimized things, eg MODs, Missions, Scripts, Servers, etc

#

Also, is 40FPS “so bad?”

lyric wave
#

yes it is bad

desert isle
#

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.

steady hawk
#

Also since you actually gave us no info, we can't say much

lyric wave
#

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.

desert isle
#

They're not wrong.

lyric wave
#

its just going from 144fps to 40 is quite a jump

#

but thansk for the help

desert isle
#

Its not a high FPS game

hidden echo
#

How come when I export my nap to mp it's doesn't create a file there

weary sky
#

So what is the problem with Arma?

#

Could be any of the mods, or even the modified version of ACE which is causing that...

wraith schooner
#

yeah even normal ace does that, thx i tried asking on the ace forum but got no response

weary sky
#

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

clever sphinx
#

@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?

wise barn
#

did you also get a new contract / change of data limit / change of connection speed with it?

No

#

the hell does that mean?

wise barn
#

lemme guess... you're running a modpack?

quiet shale
#

i do

wise barn
#

that's the issue... it's a no go

#

where did you get that pack from?

quiet shale
#

steam workshop

wise barn
#

got a link?

quiet shale
#

which mod? ace compatibility (bundled pack) or the CUP one?

wise barn
#

the cup pack?

quiet shale
wise barn
#

ah, so not a modpack. good

quiet shale
#

does the mod order on .cfg (trying to connect a headless client) have anything to do with that error?

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*

weary sky
#

What errors to they have in their RPT files?
And does the server has any errors?

lusty oar
#

Dont worry. I found a script that can fix it. Thanks for the concern

left yacht
#

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

lusty oar
#

@left yacht I suggest waiting a few mins. If it still dont work try reinstalling arma.

fringe salmon

when i go on a server it says Steam Authencation failed and dosent let me join the server

So for some reason, the eden editor doesent want to load

fringe salmon
#

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

desert isle
#

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

mystic pilot
#

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 )

fringe salmon
#

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

weak lion
#

@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.

mystic pilot
#

yeah lambs danger and suppression mods make AI actually good, i’d recommend downloading them

weak lion
#

@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.

mystic pilot
#

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

fringe salmon
#

Vcoms pretty good to, but i had issues with them completely abandoning an AO

fringe salmon
#

arma 3 and alt tabbing= crash, is there other way than just play in windowed lowered resolution?

mystic pilot
#

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

fringe salmon
#

mk i will try that

#

works ty

balmy parrot
#

"
18:02:35 SteamAPI initialization failed. Steam features won't be accessible!"

#

I think that may be a problem with my server

weak lion
#

@fringe salmon you can also open the map before alt tabbing, works for me

fringe salmon
#

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?

weary sky
steady hawk
#

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

fringe salmon
#

"Include file userconfig\VQI_Settings\VQI_Settings_Diver.hpp not found."

#

But its in the folder

#

Arma 3\Addons@VQI_DIVER\userconfig

weary sky
#

did you enable filepatching?

fringe salmon
#

How do I do that?

weary sky
#

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

fringe salmon
#

Wait im confused is the hpp file supposed to be in the userconfigs file or in a folder thats in userconfigs

weary sky
#

the file needs to be <path to Arma>\Arma 3\userconfig\VQI_Settings\VQI_Settings_Diver.hpp

fringe salmon

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

steady hawk
#

Things may get messy when you've not optimized MODs, mission, script, server, whatever. Try it in singleplayer and vanilla

tawny smelt
#

Im in single player and that happens

#

Well in the tutorial I was

steady hawk
#

Try autodetect your video settings

tawny smelt
#

I did that and it goes to ultra it goes well FPS but they go down for a second and up

#

Are you there?

steady hawk
#

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

wise barn
#

@tawny smelt
Game installed on HDD or SSD?

tawny smelt
#

HDD

#

@steady hawk yup, im not using any mod

wise barn
#

Your HDD is just to slow. Move your game to a SSD to counter the micro studder

tawny smelt
#

I don’t have an ssd

wise barn
#

Get one then ;)

tawny smelt
#

And my hdd is a good one I think

wise barn
#

Apparent not

tawny smelt
#

And there’s no temporary solution while I gather money for a ssd?

wise barn
#

Nope

tawny smelt
#

Cause im 13 and in my country is ilegal for kids to work

#

Well then thanks for your help

maiden grove
#

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?

pine kite
#

Check the .RPT file in the Arma3 folder in your user hidden Appdata folder. Maybe it has more info on the cause.

maiden grove
#

alright

#

thanks

pine kite
#

Telling the mission could help people identify if it is likely the mission being badly written.

maiden grove
#

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.

pine kite
#

@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.

fringe salmon
#

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?

#
        {

            name="Mighty GAU-8/A Avenger";
            author="Zabuza";
        };```
#

Thats what im talking about

wise barn
#

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

little sonnet
#

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,...)

steady hawk
#

Via Steam or Publisher?

little sonnet
#

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

steady hawk
#

Some Google search suggest wait is the only thing? Never heard of this issue by myself

little sonnet
#

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

steady hawk
#

Hmm, noted to my brain

little sonnet
#

It remained public. So enabling steam guard, setting to public, then disabling steam guard did the trick :)

because: missing

how old is the mission you are trying to load?

i'll try to see later if the same mods/mission combination would throw the same logs on windows too

neat ledge
wise barn
#

very likely a mod issue

neat ledge
#

it is a mod issue, although im not sure as to which mod(s) are causing it

wise barn
#

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

neat ledge
#

narrowed it down to
bCombat
CBA_A3
CCG Mod
FFAA MOD

wise barn
#

i guess you can rule your CBA

#

FFAA is also well maintained iirc

#

no clue what the others are

#

never heard of

neat ledge
#

it was ccg mod

#

it was for a specific server that i havnt been on in years

#

thank you very much for the advice

torpid marsh
#

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!

fringe salmon
#

@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

torpid marsh
#

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?

fringe salmon
#

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

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

hollow cobalt
#

Hey folks, this the right place to ask about a mod issue?

steady hawk
#

If the MOD has a dedicated place to report issues/troubleshooting, it's always better to report there

hollow cobalt
#

ahhh that's the problem 😅 I'm unsure which mod is breaking the game this way.

steady hawk
#

Either way, here might works

hollow cobalt
#

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

Thankie! that's a good call

#

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

wise barn
#

Post your questions here and wait for a response

raven dust
#

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

wise barn
#

When stops the game responding?

raven dust
#

Like it goes through the whole loading addons etc, and then once it fully launches is goes black and stops responding

wise barn
#

Can you get to the menu?

#

Or not even that?

raven dust
#

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

wise barn
#

Go to the steam installation folder and execute arma_x64.exe manually and see if that works

raven dust
#

It doesn’t

#

I tried

wise barn
#

Same?

raven dust
#

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

wise barn
#

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

raven dust
#

I’ll do that once I can get back on my pc

wise barn
#

👍

raven dust
#

Do you have any idea of what could be causing this?

wise barn
#

Not yet. That's what I'm trying to figure out

raven dust
#

Well thanks for the help

wise barn
#

Don't thank me yet 😉

raven dust
#

I am in my arma folder, i do not see any profiles folder

#

also i do not care if i lose my profiles though

wise barn
#

your arma folder in documents contains the .Arma3Profile files

raven dust
#

ohh

wise barn
#

backup this arma 3 folder and then empty it

#

once done, start arma from the steam installation folder

raven dust
#

I don't see that

wise barn
#

?

#

you have a documents folder, right?

raven dust
#

okay i found them

#

backup the folder itself or just the .Arma3Profile files

wise barn
#

all what's inside of it. once you have the backup, empty that folder

#

that you have an empty Arma 3 folder in documents

raven dust
#

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

wise barn
#

can you post a screenshot of the folder to imgur and post the link here please

raven dust
#

okay

wise barn
#

jup, correct folder. backup all that's in there and leave an empty Arma 3 folder

raven dust
#

and do i delete the folder itself once its emptied now

wise barn
#

no, just leave an empty folder

raven dust
#

it's happening again

#

i launched arma3_x64.exe and it is doing the same thing

wise barn
#

if you launch the arma.exe?

raven dust
#

ill try that now

#

nope

wise barn
#

🦆s sake...

#

hmmm...
did you already verify the game installation?

raven dust
#

yes

wise barn
#

did you try to run arma3_x64.exe as admin?

raven dust
#

yup, doesnt change anything

#

Idk, maybe ill just reinstall windows

wise barn
#

ok... 🦆...
i'm out of ideas

raven dust
#

me too

#

ugh

#

thanks for the help though, hopefully reinstalling windows can fix this

wise barn
#

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

raven dust
#

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

raven dust
#

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

raven dust
#

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

misty hinge
#

ok thanks will do

misty hinge
#

ok i tried repairing it it still come up

fringe salmon
#

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

raven dust
#

@misty hinge does it just close when you press close and you can continue doing whatever you were doing

misty hinge
#

ok thanks

#

will do

pine kite
#

@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.

fringe salmon
#

cheers

pine kite
#

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

you are missing RHSUSAF

#

@warm plover

raven dust
#

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

wise barn
#

what bollocks are you talking?

#

that's nonsense

raven dust
#

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

wise barn
#

And they usually mean nothing
that's just 🐄 💩

#

it indeed means something. that something is going wrong

raven dust
#

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

wise barn
#

it does indeed have a negative effect. stuff is not going to work as intended, assets not getting loaded, missions can fail

raven dust

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?

golden kayak
#

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.

weary sky
#

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!

restive sequoia
#

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)

weary sky
#

So what are the exact error messages?
And can you provide a .rpt log from when it happened?

restive sequoia
#

Wrong signature for file XYZ. Sometimes its from mods and sometimes arma default files and everytime its a different pbo 🤷‍♂️

golden kayak
#

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

weary sky
#

in that case ask again in 4 hours...

golden kayak
#

Very well

weary sky
#

and make sure you have the .rpt ready

weary sky
#

wrong signature for a .p3d? that sounds like an extracted pbo at the wrong location

restive sequoia
weary sky
#

again; those errors either mean the mods on the client are broken/outdated, or on the server

restive sequoia
#

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

weary sky
#

which version does the server have?

restive sequoia
#

1.98.0.146373

could be VRAM or too small page file

brave hawk
#

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

wise barn
#

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)

brave hawk
#

yeah I get the pagefile usage, but I mean, my RAM is available, use it dangit!

wise barn
#

other applications also write to the page file, not just games

brave hawk
#

I have it set back to "system managed"

wise barn
#

yeah I get the pagefile usage, but I mean, my RAM is available, use it dangit!
download more 😄

brave hawk
#

also, I should maybe update my drivers, maybe NVidia messed up recently 😄 (last version 2020-10-07)

wise barn
#

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 🤝

alpine horizon
#

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

steady hawk
#

Having what?

alpine horizon
#

@steady hawk for example, we were trying to play overthrow mode but when I open a server, they cannot see or join

pine kite
#

@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.

alpine horizon
#

@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 ?

pine kite
#

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.

alpine horizon
#

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 ?

pine kite
#

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.

alpine horizon
#

I understood sir

#

my thanks for your interest and time

pine kite
#

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.

fringe salmon
#

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

desert isle
#

Start with Autodetect and adjust accordingly.

fringe salmon
#

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.

desert isle
#

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"

uncut trellis
#

could also be some thing your graphics drivers have enabled

desert isle
#

+1

uncut trellis
#

some extra "beautifying" feature

fringe salmon
#

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?

desert isle
#

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

fringe salmon
#

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

desert isle
#

What size monitor and what kind of video card?

fringe salmon
#

1920x1080 with a 1080ti

uncut trellis
#

there are also the motion blur etc settings

fringe salmon
#

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?

uncut trellis
#

well I have Ati card but it had all kinds of fancy features enabled in the control panel by default

#

that "enhanced" the picture

fringe salmon
#

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

uncut trellis
#

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

feral stream
#

@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

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

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.

weary sky
#

if you go to the game settings there's an option to change the UI colors with different presets

quaint jewel
#

@fringe salmon maybe its a broken mod. Try removing some

obtuse saddle
#

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.

its in gameplay

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?

obtuse saddle
#

Good night, Dedmen!

#

Post the image on imgur and post the link

I think it would be called theme yeah

pine kite
#

Open laucher/top left (gear) options/Launcher options/Active theme about mid page.

obtuse saddle
#

My theme is blue actually

pine kite
#

On that same page of your screenshot change "Im spiel" to Menu 😉

#

What I refered to earlier was just the launcher user interface.

obtuse saddle
#

Okay, lemme boot up the game again😅 So on the Optionen page I should set it to Menu?

pine kite
#

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!

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

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

halcyon bluff
#

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

@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?

weary sky
#

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

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

weary sky
#

incorrect settings have nothing to do with the hardware 😉

wise barn
#

@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

My tipping point mission is broken, all the ai took me up north

#

How could I fix this?

strong apex
#

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?

quasi tundra
#

my ace interaction isnt working, how do i fix this

weary sky
#

Remove mod/script which breaks it

Or check keybinds

quasi tundra
#

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

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

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

uncut trellis
#

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.

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

uncut trellis
#

Perhaps your gpu overheats

autumn oasis

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

pine kite
#

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)

yeah im in the event viewer rn

it happened yesterday how can I look for that

There is a filter with which you can define the search period.

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?

any mission i try

steady hawk
#

Make sure your keybinds are fine

pine kite
#

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.

desert isle
#

Firstly, ALWAYS test with NO MODS

dapper pollen
#

aight

pine kite
#

Yes, no mods first.

autumn oasis
#

I might just reinstall all the mods first to see if it happens

desert isle
#

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.

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

just thought you could narrow it down which mods is broken .Thanks
