@tall palm during tests I find out that disableChannels[] = {0,2,4,5}; in server.cfg do not apply to briefing stage. Is it work as intended?

fringe salmon Oct 18, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

so no matter what I put my graphics settings at, I am getting a consistent 10-20 fps. I have a i7 6700 and a GTX 1070 with 32gb of ram

#

The lowest it has gone is around 6fps, and I rarely get anything over 25.

unborn silo Oct 18, 2020, 6:37 PM

#

@tall palm Also we found repro for vanilla and two bugs(?)

You can select disabled channel at markers dropdown menu and place it.

Create simple VR mission with 2+ units.
Create init.sqf

if (!isDedicated) then {
    0 enableChannel false;
};

Launch on dedicated with 2 clients.
Non admin player have Global chat disabled during briefing(markers to Global still available). After mission start Global chat become available.
Without isDedicated check non admin player will not get access to Global chat.

Should I create ticket?

hi, a buddy of mines been having an issue that seemed to be semi-prevalent in 2014, where no matter what mods he uses or anything, he connects to a session and his entire homes internet dies within like 5 minutes afterwards, and its only exclusively with arma

#

we've looked around for solutions but nothing too much has worked, reinstalls let him play like one match or Op before it does it again

ISP / Modem issue.

pulsar cove Oct 18, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

i mean maybe, its wierd because it started suddenly in july and he hadnt done anything specific with the ISP, and its legit just with arma

tall palm Oct 18, 2020, 8:24 PM

@unborn silo yes please create the ticket looks like something that needs to be addressed

Playing Arma for the first time (I'm on MacOS, so version is 1.82), and am doing the campaign. Some models seem to be bugged though, how do I fix this?

hey im getting about 40 fps max and i have no idea why is there anyway to increase to like 60?

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:26 AM

#

40FPS is good average for arma. what are your PC specs?

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:26 AM

#

2070 and 32 gigs of ram

#

rtx 2070

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

what RAM (speed and dimings), and what CPU?

uncut trellis Oct 19, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

how many mods?

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

i have no mods

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

what RAM (speed and dimings), and what CPU?

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

its drr4

#

ddr4

#

and uhhhh

#

hold up

#

intel core i7-8700k 3.70GHz

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

i need the speed and timings for the RAM also

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

idk how to find that

#

also does arma use cpu power instead of gpu?

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

download CPU-Z, install it. run it and go to the Memory tab. it tells you the timings

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

ok hold up

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

also does arma use cpu power instead of gpu?
you shift load to the CPU if you reduce the graphics settings.
keep your settings at ultra to have maximum GPU usage

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

ok

#

whenever i click download now for cpu-z it does nothing

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:32 AM

#

disable/lower PiP and reduce view distance to have some more FPS (maybe)
it's also recommended to have arma on a SSD

your RAM is slow AF

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:37 AM

i should take out my old ram from my other pc

bottlenecking your PC

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:39 AM

#

so is there no way to lock fps when using vsync?

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:39 AM

#

no

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:39 AM

#

damn they should add that

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:40 AM

#

would have no benefit anyway

#

all you can do for now is

disable/lower PiP and reduce view distance to have some more FPS (maybe)
it's also recommended to have arma on a SSD

it's recommended to get better RAM for your CPU
at least 3000MHz CL14-14-14-34

#

one moment...!
do you have your ram XMP profile active in the bios?

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

?

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:44 AM

#

not sure if your RAM supports it, but many have a secondary profile that can be activated in the BIOS menu. it's kind of RAM OC

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:45 AM

#

uhhhhhhhhhh i wouldnt know where to find that in bios

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:46 AM

#

i guess you need to google it
YOUR MOTHERBOARD + activate XMP Profile

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:46 AM

idk what motherboard i have

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:46 AM

CPU-Z tells you

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:46 AM

#

its nothing fancy

#

i bought this computer prebuilt because i didnt feel like building a new pcc

#

pc

weak urchin Oct 19, 2020, 1:47 AM

#

Highly doubt it will even support XMP xD

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:47 AM

#

be aware:
activating XMP profiles may cause a boot loop if not fully supported.
if that's the case, reenter BIOS and deactivate it again

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:48 AM

#

yeah ill talk to my dad about it

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:48 AM

#

Highly doubt it will even support XMP xD
only one way to find out 😉

weak urchin Oct 19, 2020, 1:48 AM

#

True that

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:48 AM

hes been an it for like 45 years hell know what to do with it

hes been an it for like 45 years hell know what to do with it
you sure? 😄

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:49 AM

#

yeah hes 61 lmao

#

hes a software developer

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:49 AM

so, no hardware guy 😄

#

still, ask him first

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:49 AM

#

used to be the leading manager in the IT department at morgan stanley and yeah he knows hardware

#

hes built a shitload of pc's i just personally havent

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:50 AM

#

leading manager in the IT department at morgan stanley
means, excellent search skills on stack overflow 🤣

#

JK

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:50 AM

#

lmao

#

that was back in like the 90s

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:51 AM

#

ok, he then knows his business 😄

#

anyway:

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:51 AM

#

yeah ill try dropping pip

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:52 AM

#

look for XMP profile suport on your board. if not possible, better RAM will also not have much impact on performance.

#

see, this is the reason not to buy prebuilds 😉

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:53 AM

#

ok so basically the reason i got it was because the company he currently works for buys pcs for him to run servers on

#

but they would only let him buy it from dell.com as a prebuilt

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:53 AM

#

bummer

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:53 AM

#

yeah

#

i used to have a prebuilt

#

till he gave me this one

#

i mean

#

meant

#

custom build

#

lmao im tired

#

i used to have a custom build until i got this one and so i might take the 2070 out of this one and put it into my old custom

#

you should see the cpu cooler in that thing

#

fucking massiver

#

massive*

#

works amazing though

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

it doesn't matter how "big" something is, just how powerful.
what are the specs of your "old build?"

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:58 AM

#

oh gosh its been years but it used to have a 1070 in it however the ram was wayyyy better along with tons of other parts

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

if the old system is DDR3, you won't be able to switch that

#

what CPU does it have?

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 1:59 AM

#

no its ddr4

#

and i dont remember

#

i think i remember the brand though but that it and wont really help you

#

its a gigabyte board

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 2:00 AM

#

gigabyte board
that's something at least.

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 2:01 AM

#

yeah i mean gigabyte boards are pretty decent

#

how do you change your display name in game

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 2:05 AM

#

you need to create a new profile

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 2:05 AM

#

how

#

like on the website

wise barn Oct 19, 2020, 2:06 AM

#

ingame. game options i think

#

can'T remember

fringe salmon Oct 19, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

i figured it out

foggy parrot Oct 19, 2020, 3:11 PM

#

Is there any reason to have a sudden massive drop in frames, i was getting about 50 on an altis life sever and now seem to be getting less then 10 (says 8 but it feels less) as well as my character de-syncing massively. I havent changed any setting and a fresh install hasnt helped

uncut trellis Oct 19, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

reason == life server

#

at least very possibly

grim tinsel Oct 19, 2020, 3:34 PM

#

meowthis see if you can replicate the issue on other servers and in SP @foggy parrot

foggy parrot Oct 19, 2020, 4:02 PM

#

yeah on a cqc sever it dropped from 100+ to the same as life

#

i will try in single player now

chilly adder Oct 19, 2020, 4:03 PM

Is there any reason that my blackfish keeps going on full power when the wheels touch the ground in coop?

#

they do that

#

i dont think there is a fix either

chilly adder Oct 19, 2020, 4:04 PM

#

I think there was a thread about this since the release of vtols

foggy parrot Oct 19, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

potentially every time i few them i just was expecting it

chilly adder Oct 19, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

I think this bug is like 4 years old or something

foggy parrot Oct 19, 2020, 4:09 PM

#

@grim tinsel the issue is repeating itself in single player

grim tinsel Oct 19, 2020, 4:09 PM

#

Hm odd

foggy parrot Oct 19, 2020, 4:10 PM

#

its especially weird cause i havent experienced fps drops in any other games like csgo or siege

#

and changing setting have no impact on the fps

last valve Oct 19, 2020, 10:16 PM

hey guys this isn't related to Arma, but I can't hold buttons in game anymore, It does the effect where it spams the button like I'm typing after a little bit

I'd say it's normal. Don't forget that this game is a sandbox

lapis adder Oct 20, 2020, 1:34 AM

oh!

Hi, I'm trying to get a big more into scripting, but I'm having a problem I can't seem to understand the cause to. The situation is that my guy needs to get into an ATV, and drive to a location. I am setting his tasks using the Create Task module. I completed his task to get into the ATV using !(player == vehicle player). Right after that, it doesn't trigger the next Set Task module to assign a new task, but I have no idea why, since it has worked all the other times before.

#

(The trigger, !(player == vehicle player), sets the previous task to complete and is supposed to assign the new task, but it doesn't show up on screen or in tasks menu.)

native mica Oct 20, 2020, 3:45 PM

Any ideas as to where I am going wrong?

hi, after around 10-20 minutes of playing arma, i get a crash lead by an error message, which reads:

this only happens with arma3, and any input would be appreciated

idle cairn Oct 20, 2020, 4:14 PM

Try updating your graphics card software if not that trying updating your directX to the next update. ( found this information from a simple google search)

flat talon Oct 20, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

yeah, i've tried that

#

i've tried quite a bit from forums etc and google

#

nothing has worked

native mica Oct 20, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

have you verified your game?

weary sky Oct 20, 2020, 4:35 PM

#

If you get that error you should also have gotten an Arma 3 error code; most likely ACCESS_VIOLATION or UNABLE_TO_INIT_DXGI.
Some things you can try:

verify game files in Steam
update / roll-back GPU drivers
update/re-install DirectX
re-install Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable
Disable Steam Overlay
check CPU/GPU temperatures (eg. with MSI Afterburner)

flat talon Oct 20, 2020, 4:37 PM

#

alright, i'll try those

#

thanks

wise barn Oct 20, 2020, 5:23 PM

DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED```
that's a win10 issue. MS reduced the time threshold to register micro dropouts of drivers as an error with win10. this did not happen with win8.1 or win7

#

@flat talon

flat talon Oct 20, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

oh?

wise barn Oct 20, 2020, 5:24 PM

there are tutorials around on how to increase this threshold by for example editing/adding the registry keys

rip

flat talon Oct 20, 2020, 7:51 PM

any idea how to fix this?

"Addon 'rhsgref_airweapons' requires addon 'rhs_main'"
Error is not a common error and I've not found anyone else that's had the same issue.

wise barn Oct 21, 2020, 5:18 PM

You are missing a RHS mod it seems

maiden temple Oct 21, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

I'll go back over it but I've double checked that which is weirds

#

Thanks!

#

So I double checked and the error remains the same, all the neccecary RHS mods are installed (all 4 and the compats needed for ACE) but it's still not working

wise barn Oct 21, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

Then either one mod is not loading properly or is corrupted.

maiden temple Oct 21, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

Do you think re-installing RHS-GREF would be the way to go here?

#

It might be the compats for ACE causing the issue but I dont see that being it

wise barn Oct 21, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

gref seems not to be the problem. Find out which mod has the rhs_main.pbo

#

Repair this mod then

maiden temple Oct 21, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Repaired it and the issue persists, I'm going to remove the mod files from the server and add them one by one

#

See if I can process of elimination it

I get that in the servers RPT also but nothing pointing towards anything specific

When I turn autoinit to 1
The server hangs on

Error Local variable in global space and does not get to connect to steam servers

#

Maybe my profile.vars is corrupted or something maybe

near hollow Oct 22, 2020, 10:59 AM

#

ok my server provider very quickly told me
its stalling here: 11:52:36 Autoinit is supported only for persistent missions!

so im gonna try autoinit off
but last time i did that it just pushed me to mission selection rather than the mission file itself

#

Fixed that was the issue
For some reason the logs wasn't providing all the info the company had to run the server off their machine to get access to all the logs
Anyway auto init is off and all working

Good morning to all of you,

Since update 2.00, I can't access my old Arma 3 profiles anymore and the game gives me directly the "PLAYER 1" profile.
When I try to add or modify a profile my game crashes and gives me the following error message 0xC0000005 - STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION.

I have already made the following attempts :

Reinstall the game;
Check the files by Steam;
Install my profiles in the Arma 3 folder directly;
Check my Windows 10 firewall (Windows Defender);

Here I hope you could help me, because I only play this game and after 4000h it never happens thank you in advance.

Strange thing that is happening with the Linux server, I created a Warlords mission map using Tanoa, in the Eden editor it runs great. However when I move it over to the Linux server, it loads the mission on Altris? Before anyone asks, I have all the DLC's on the Linux server. At this point I am not certain if its the mission file, or the server. A side note, I save the mission as a sqf not a pbo. Not sure that makes a difference.

wise barn Oct 22, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

missions must be either PBO. SQF is just the script language

#

check your server RPT files to find more information

crisp lark Oct 22, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

This was a missions.sqf, all my modules and placements are there, just keeps loading Altris instead of Tanoa.

wise barn Oct 22, 2020, 9:00 PM

#

it's mission.sqm and it has to be a PBO on the server

#

just load your mission in the editor -> export as multiplayer or something like that. don'T binarize it in export tho

i have a very special problem with my game and im running out of ideas on how to fix it.

Every time i try and play on my groups server i can't load in. I've uninstalled reinstalled arma and workshop mods, reinstalled battleye, flushed my DNS. i have no idea what is causing it and none of my friends do either.

If anyone has any ideas @ me

is your monitor turned on?
sorry if this question sounds silly, but

Every time i try and play on my groups server i can't load in.
leaves a lot of room for interpretation... too much room actually.
be a bit more specific please
@opaque needle

opaque needle Oct 23, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

yes the monitor is on

when i join while the server is in the mission select screen i get stuck on the loading screen even after a mission is selected

if i join while a mission is selected i can slot normally but when i try to load in it gets stuck on "wait on host" after loading mission files

if i join while in progress it loads the missions files about half way or sometimes 99% of the way but never loads in

the issue seems to be the line

Does anybody know a command i can run to give 2 slots zeus as of when they spawn in?
im not using the select respawn method and using "respawn_west" empty marker instead.

however using this method when having a game master and set owner(s). On a dedi they spawn without zeus
as soon as i go back to using the "select respawn" method their zeus works straight away.

any ideas?

@fringe salmon Got any custom startup parameters? From what I can tell, old version of the bug had a fix that involved:
changing/disabling the CPU count param,
or changing both arma3 .exe's compatibility settings to "Run as admin" and "run in compatibility mode for Windows 7"

Next suggestion would be updating your graphics driver. Oddly enough it does affect audio, and doing so fixed my own audio issues with a few programs.

#

No sound at all, or just in ArmA?

#

Would suggest the same things I offered up to Anup- volume mixer, CPU count parameter and compatibility mode.

#

Aye- either with Steam's own launch options for the game, or the launcher's advanced section in its parameter tab.

Use the 'Auto Detect' button in your graphical settings to get the optimal settings for your setup
Disable PiP in the graphical settings
Lower View Distance and Object Distance (1000-2000m should be enough for infantry)
Don't expect high FPS on multiplayer servers; 30FPS is actually what you should be aiming for, especially on script/mod heavy servers/missions.

tulip iron Oct 27, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

@fringe salmon There's surprisingly little on fixing that issue, but the explanations tend to go like this:
ArmA's using an old configuration for the audio driver, and didn't/doesn't check for available outputs, their driver versions and such. This does include quirks like having a headset plugged in instead of headphones (if you have a single jack), switching to speakers instead of either, audio driver updates...

The best suggestion I can give is to disable all of your audio outputs in device manager,
launching ArmA with the -noSound startup parameter (Author section in the launcher),
close out of both the game and launcher after about a minute,
then re-enable the device you want to use and get it set up how you want to use it, and relaunch ArmA with the -noSound parameter disabled.

#

What I can find suggests just the disable/re-enable, but that doesn't seem to be reliable, hence the startup param addition.

So if I were to load my map edits to the server side.. say, I put the mission.sqm generated from 3DEN into my DMS pre_init do I remove the initserver.sqf initplayerlocal.sqf and make my mission.sqm only have the markers in my mission file? oooor? How exactly do I go about moving everything server side.. because I have tried multiple avenues of approach and every time my server loads up and than spams the "mission read from bank" error in the rpt..

I've even added the lines into my mission.sqm of all the addons and the generated seed.. still get that error spamming.. trying to figure out how to work around this, been searching forums and youtube to answer my questions... hmmm

How in the world do I properly load my "mission" or map assets on the server side man?! lol

Hey, I try to set up the hardware firewall for my server because I get a lot of DDoS attacks lately, the thing is that I would need to know which ports the Arma 3 client is using to get to the server, better said I thought it would use the Ephemeral port range but it seems like it does not take any port out of this list or at least not all the time.

Is there anything anybody knows about the ports the Arma 3 client uses to connect to the server?

@pine kite its not about the incomeing server ports its about the ports a client has when he does connect to a server

Clients rarely have fixed ports. It can be random ports it tries to connect with.

#

If you're in Windows, open resource monitor, check the network tab. open the game client and connect with another server. See what ports your client tries to connect with to other servers.

Did it happened in all servers including official ones?

@steady hawk nvm it started doing it on singleplyer aswell

My very best guess is... does your HDD moan when you zoom?

arctic pine Oct 29, 2020, 11:25 AM

#

i play it on a ssd. but no my hdd dosen't moan xd

wise barn Oct 29, 2020, 11:27 AM

#

what are the timings on your RAM?
did you use autodetection for your graphics settings?
did you edit any startup params in the launcher?

arctic pine Oct 29, 2020, 11:29 AM

#

no i play everything on low yes i did edit my startup parameters, ram timings??? do you mean the latency?

wise barn Oct 29, 2020, 11:39 AM

#

do you mean the latency?
yes.
also:; revert all changes to the launcher and use autodetection for your graphics.
if you move them to low, load and stress is shifted to the CPU rather the GPU where it belongs

no one uses the official tab? it seems like on the internet tab there's official servers on there

alright tiem to join one of these servers and die cuz im a noob with not even 1 hour xd

I would advice playing the tutorials and campaign first

#

jumping into multiplayer without knowing how the game works is not very good idea

#

as it is not like COD or BF you might have some experience in

so dont ruin the game for others by not knowing how the game works

fringe salmon Oct 29, 2020, 1:56 PM

left my pc running last night and redownloaded 140 gb worth of mods to see which will download. a random ~5 mb mission or all my mods. mods won by far
cant find anything on google for this

#

Ofc tested multiple different missions

fringe salmon Oct 29, 2020, 4:06 PM

#

is there a way to play online as smooth as you can play singleplayer? it seems like the FPS is a bit fluttery online. but very smooth in single player

#

maybe online demands more from your rig?

uncut trellis Oct 29, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

Online play smoothness also depends on server quality and how demanding mission/scenario is run and how many mods and scripts are running

#

So it is very unlikely to get same experience

fringe salmon Oct 29, 2020, 4:21 PM

alright. what happens if i get stuck in a rock? im stuck in a rock rn on the campaign mission. liek glitched in it

Download mods from the workshop

pine kite Oct 29, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

@modest jackal No point in installing mods if you can't get the game to work properly (by your request for assistance) First make sure you can play vanilla Arma 3 servers, public or private ones.

#

A bit more info on what you tried to connect with (which serve) and through which tool ( launcher server browser, 3rd party launcher, ingame server browser)

fringe salmon Oct 29, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

the official servers on arma 3 launcher dont show up for some reason, you have to go into the game then the official servers will show up

#

i had teh same problem

pine kite Oct 29, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Yes, it seems a bug a couple of years old. Confirmed by Dedmen: https://steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/0/359543951710734387/

#

As long as you don't load any mods through the launcher and start the game as vanilla, then you should be able to see and connect with the official Arma 3 servers from within the game.

#

(and have the same game version as the server)

#

in what situation?

willow storm Oct 30, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

Experiencing some pretty game breaking issues with .pbo errors. It used to be that if you just deleted the .pbo, bisign, and dll, then reverified, it would fix the issue but this seems to no longer be the case, fixing one .pbo error just results in another, all in random mods and in the core game itself. At one point it started giving me some core arma errors, bushes and jets and whatnot. I've been seeing more and more people kicked from the servers i play for the same reasons.

After speaking with the server owner, who assures us the problem is in Arma, and not in the modding, i was able to fix my issue my altering my set launch options with "-malloc=system", which i believe is the BI suggested fix. After restarting my PC it worked, however the same actions did not work for a friend.

He has verified twice in a row without starting the game, used the "malloc" and the "-profiles=Profiles" fix, neither worked. He has redownloaded both Arma and all of his mods and yet the issue still persists.

I've tried 4 different server discords, the BI forums and even reached out to RHS (the only recent update) to see if they have anyone else experiencing this issue. It is not server specific, .pbo errors on every server we tried.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

uncut trellis Oct 30, 2020, 4:04 PM

#

what mods are involved

#

server owner might not know what hes talking about

willow storm Oct 30, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

It's across multiple servers with different mods, i guess maybe identifying which mods are common would help.

#

The most common is they are all Exile servers.

uncut trellis Oct 30, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

could be a starting point

willow storm Oct 30, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

I believe the server owner to be an Exile dev, although that isn't verified.

uncut trellis Oct 30, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

if it happens on non modded servers then its a core game problem for sure

#

mods can easily break a lot of things so it can not be ruled out

willow storm Oct 30, 2020, 4:07 PM

#

Exile, RHS, Ryan Zombies and CUP are the only overlapping mods.

#

RHS just updated last week, which is my best guess to the origin of the issue. Although we both played for days without interruption after the update.

#

The initial errors where RHS related, but then it spiraled from there.

#

Even if it is a core error, wouldn't re-downloading arma potentially fix that?

#

I know one of the issues that i kept getting, my friend as well and one that i see people keep getting kicked from the server for is "addons/air_f.pbo", which i believe to be core asset.

#

I was also getting "a3/plants_f/bush/b_nerium02s_f.p3d" which, again, i believe is a core thing

weary sky Oct 30, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

verify game files in Steam, since it seems that the pbo is corrupted

willow storm Oct 30, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

Have done that multiple times already. 😦

#

Comes up clean every time.

weary sky Oct 30, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

you could manually remove that pbo manually and verify again (which should redownload the file).

willow storm Oct 30, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

Have done that for each one, and it just spits out another, unrelated .pbo error. That is the issue.

wild saddle Oct 30, 2020, 6:32 PM

So it kind of fixes from itself?

pine kite Oct 30, 2020, 6:34 PM

#

Once the download finishes. If you can find offline installs of the mods then you can extract those instead in the proper folder. Should be more stable. But then you loose the automatic updates and easy install that Steam provides.

uncut trellis Oct 30, 2020, 6:34 PM

#

should not start messing with that if the server runs specific mods from steam

pine kite Oct 30, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

Yeah, that's what I tried to convey. It's much trickier to keep up, but stable once you have it running as is.

wild saddle Oct 30, 2020, 6:41 PM

Restart fixed it

Check all server host performance statistics, memory load, memory page faults, networking load, disk access que.

Well, it means that the game cannot use UPNP to open the door for your fried to connect. Instead try to configure your router port forwarding setting. I can't tell you how exactly because all router brands and models are done differently.

#

Figure out how to get into the configuration menu first. And tell what brand model it is, maybe there is a manual on the interwebs.

The other person we narrowed down to either his new headset Razer Nari/Razer Synapse or that combined with TFAR Beta (1.0.327)

Going to test and see if it's related to TFAR tomorrow or just his headset.
Either way, don't believe it's 2.0 related anymore. Would you still like me to make a ticket?

Ok update on what happened. I did what I was told but now there is just a window titled Arma 3 Console version 2.00.146773 x86 : port 2302 and nothing else opened or anything. Inside the window it says a bunch of stuff like dedicated host created, along with listing the game port, and that a host identity was created. Nothing else shows up what do I do now, sorry again.

#

HOLY MOLY! I just changed the mode to 64 bit instead of 32 and it’s working!! I’m so sorry about all of this, I guess that was all I needed to do that was left. Thanks for the help on verifying. 64 bit didn’t work before, so even if I did change it, without verifying the game it wouldn’t work. THANK YOU 🙏 😊

@quaint jewel Yeah rgr, confirmed it is the headset. Just gotta figure out if it's Razer Synapse or the driver causing it like you said.

#

Seems other users have had the same issue with the same headset looking online. So guessing driver.

Hi i am new to arma and i have been getting this issue where the only the infantry showcase and the first mission in the prologue open and i can play them, but all the other showcases and missions will load up right till the game and then all of the sudden the game completely crashes and the window closes i have occasionally got into the game and after a minute it does the same crash does anybody know anything that could help/fix this issue?

#

note: i have restarted my pc and checked the integrity of game files

#

Anyone know why all of sudden my mic would stop working in arma 3? Issue started 2 or 3 days ago. I have countless hours on A2 and A3 and very savvy and skilled with computers but cannot solve this issue. Ive done run through forum after forum attempting everything and no resolve.

wise barn Nov 1, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

is it set as default input device in the windows settings?

delicate coyote Nov 1, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

Correct

#

Set as default. Only mic i have too. Disabled everything else. Also attempted a new mic A40 I just bought as an upgrade. Checked drivers. Installed and uninstalled. and reinstalled. selected in windows 10 sound options for arma to default my mic and headset

wise barn Nov 1, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

not just for arma as default. the mic must me system default

delicate coyote Nov 1, 2020, 7:36 PM

Yes correct. Its set as system default as well.

does it work in TS / discord?

Works in everything. Other games. Steam. While streaming. In other games such as COD. TS and Discord work. Cant figure out why in game it wont pick up

I closed my Arma launcher and restarted my computer, and now it says it has to re-install, even though I can open the laucher from the files.

Can someone help me out?

Its a recent issue never happened before. in game they say sounds like static and that some times my voice will come through with static

did you verify your installation yet?

not sure if WL tinkers with VON...
did you connect to an official server and tried there?

I have a 2GB pbo file that I would like to bisign but it would not let me bisign it anyone know why?

uncut trellis Nov 2, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

why do you have 2gb pbo?

#

and what is it that does not let you sign it?

#

and how do you try to sign it

dapper tartan Nov 2, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

I have tried with "DSUtils" and "addon builder" but it does not work anywhere and I do not know what does not let me sign it in "DSUtils" and "addon builder"

uncut trellis Nov 2, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

there is a size limit how big pbo can be

#

is that like a modpack or something?

#

and if yes, you should be doing a compilation on Steam instead

dapper tartan Nov 2, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

It's a pbo for a modpack

uncut trellis Nov 2, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

iif its 2gb you probalby have a lot of stuff there and id wager you have not asked permission to put them in there so if you put that on steam it will likely be dmcad

#

which is why collection of the original mods is the way to go

dapper tartan Nov 2, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

I have permission to use it but I do not know how to sign the file as it constantly makes a mistake I can also easily upload it to steam but without signing it pbo but I would like to sign it as I would like to protect my server If you understand

uncut trellis Nov 2, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

so you have permission from all the mod authors that are packed into it? or did you buy it from someone?

#

as if the latter then you have been scammed

dapper tartan Nov 2, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

I have a new problem I can not join my server because it means I have something in my modpack that is not signed but I have put both keys on my server and in my modpack as I join my server with any ideas?

Okay, unsure if this should go here so feel free to delete but have nowhere else to ask. I updated my latest mikero tools today and now the porgrams will not open. This is my error:

Anyone know how to fix or have a similar issue?

uncut trellis Nov 2, 2020, 10:32 PM

did you try installing it again

dapper lintel Nov 2, 2020, 10:33 PM

#

Yeah, I used the Mikero tool updater. So I try reingstalling it there and same issue. I will try to unintall everything and install again.

#

Okay, I uninstalled at reinstalled it and same exsact error. I even went and tried installing the older free version and still the same error.

wise barn Nov 2, 2020, 10:41 PM

Reinstall not just pboProject, but also any other needed tools

dapper lintel Nov 2, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

I can't remember what other tools are needed. Do we have a list?

#

wait

#

I think I fixed it. I must have not installed the new rapify correctly maybe.

See pmc Wiki for p drive setup. There's a list

I think I fixed it. I must have not installed the new rapify correctly maybe.

uncut trellis Nov 2, 2020, 10:58 PM

when I get any error first thing I do is install all of them again

Now i have a new techinal error with pboproject. (fun night ahead it seems). Works fine with everything apart from this new folder I made. Very simple weapon, nothing unusual that I have no done before. However, it seems to be stuck on Bis Binarsing. There is nothing else in this folder other than the single weapon, rvmat, textures and config. Tried binarizing my other mod folders, works as expected. Just seems to be stuck with this one.

Edit: Okay, seems to be going but extremely slow. My huge mod folders in gets ready in 90 seconds with full build. This one, I've had running for 15 min now and it's on "stripping". obviously used the program for 6 months now and never had this. So weird, haha.

uncut trellis Nov 2, 2020, 11:32 PM

#

some weird bug in there then

#

try with simple config that has only cfgpatches in it and put in files one by one until it packs

dapper lintel Nov 3, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

I have no idea why. I remade the p3d and it worked the 2nd time. I've had so many glitches tonight (not arma 3 related, just games doing rare extradonary bugs and work computers dying) I'm probably just tired and doing stuff wrong.

uncut trellis Nov 3, 2020, 12:18 AM

#

it may be good idea to get some sleep when that starts to happen

dapper lintel Nov 3, 2020, 12:25 AM

#

Yeah, I seem to have a weird problem now where it's not even using the p3d in the folder and is using a p3d I used earlier to test it (even though I have delted all temp files). Going to sleep now. Edit, no idea why but works now. Screw this off to sleep.

My arma 3 has been crashing a lot lately, it normal a for a while but then I just get a black screen and it freezes the monitor where the game is being played

#

also it uninstalled itself for some reason

uncut trellis Nov 3, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

steam loses the isntall sometimes

#

its steam bug though

#

crashing could indicate your computer is overheating

it was so weird never had that happen

uncut trellis Nov 3, 2020, 1:19 AM

have you updated gpu drivers?

hey guys so for some reason ive had this problem for a while now: footsteps, vehicle noises, and gunshots only can be heard in my left headphone but comms and everything else can be heard in both. all other games work fine. any support is appreciated

uncut trellis Nov 3, 2020, 2:57 AM

#

@granite stump all it needs is something to break (a driver/windows update/game update/hardware failure etc)

#

usb headset?

#

@dusk estuary

weary sky Nov 3, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

if you headset supports 3.1/4.1/5.1/7.1/etc. make sure you set it to stereo, since Arma doesn't really like anything more than stereo

dusk estuary Nov 3, 2020, 2:59 AM

#

@uncut trellis yes

#

ok let me make sure im on stereo

uncut trellis Nov 3, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

if that does not help try analog 3.5 jack audiodevice if you can

dusk estuary Nov 3, 2020, 3:00 AM

#

@uncut trellis sorry wym

#

@weary sky arma audio options doesnt show anywhere wherei can set it to stereo

#

and my headset has 7.1 disabled

weary sky Nov 3, 2020, 3:02 AM

#

Arma will take any settings from Windows and/or headset software

#

make sure you restarted Arma after changing the settings (outside of Arma), otherwise it most likely won't be picked up

dusk estuary Nov 3, 2020, 3:02 AM

#

hmm

#

where would i have to change the settings that have to do with arma @weary sky

#

if u know

weary sky Nov 3, 2020, 3:04 AM

#

like I said; Arma uses Windows settings, so Windows needs to have the stereo setting, not Arma

#

eg. if you have a Corsair headset, make sure you set it on stereo in iCUE

dusk estuary Nov 3, 2020, 3:04 AM

#

is that in the audio panel

#

aight

dark pewter Nov 3, 2020, 8:39 AM

it might take a second i am loading the game up right now

its not wanting to screenshot

i think it may be an issue with my graphics card or whatnot because if i open windows game bar the same effect is applied

wise barn Nov 4, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

disable game bar asap because it's causing more issues than helping.
next up:

update ALL your drivers manually, means that you go to the manufacture site of the device and download the latest version there (GPU, motherboard, ect)
verify your game installation via steam

Arma 2 question here.
I was playing a few sp mods and cwr2 today and they were mostly working fine and then i tried to play in the server i usually go to and it gave me the modified data file error and failed to join.
I physically removed every single mod and then verified the files on Steam and then removed all the launch parameters and i still get the exact same error. This makes me worry that reinstalling the whole thing won't even work.
Sorry i know this is an Arma 3 discord but there's literally nowhere else to ask.
any help would be uh, helpful.

any luck

grim tinsel Nov 5, 2020, 8:10 AM

Check if the steam workshop page has a direct download link on it

#

If it doesnt you'll have to find the missions pbo file in the place that steam downloaded it to, cant remember the directory for that off of the top of my head

crimson glacier Nov 5, 2020, 8:11 AM

#

shit okay yea thats what I need

#

the directory to where it downloaded it

grim tinsel Nov 5, 2020, 8:11 AM

#

Some googling can propably find it

feral stream Nov 5, 2020, 9:35 AM

#

@crimson glacier you'll need to find the id (number in workshop link) in ..steam\steamapps\workshop\content\107410#### and then rename the file in there properly. easier way to download missions with is just plop the link into https://steamworkshopdownloader.io/

And doing illegally? 🤣

hasty cipher Nov 5, 2020, 12:04 PM

#

Are you accusing me of doing illegal stuff? You do know that mods from theprogrammer costs money, and you pay them for their work, and to get access to their stuff?

#

And the problem isnt the modpack. The problem is with a file "a3rp_staffvest"

#

Do you even know what theprogrammer is?

quaint jewel Nov 5, 2020, 12:07 PM

theprogrammer stuff is scripts

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 12:07 PM

Polpox, go to bed. You have no idea what you're talking about.

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 12:08 PM

hasty cipher Nov 5, 2020, 12:09 PM

#

Yes the modpack is more than 2gb, but the file that is failing is only 1.7 mb

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 12:10 PM

#

Meant the pbo itself only has 1.7?

hasty cipher Nov 5, 2020, 12:10 PM

pboManager is really notorious at packing pbos, causes a lot of issues. At least you should have use Addon Builder, preferably, pboProject

#

Could someone help me out? I am having trouble getting a custom picture on a blank billboard in my mission. I load my mission in Eden, place a blank billboard and in the textures field, apply this code;
this setObjectTextureGlobal [0,"xmas.png"];
I have also used Arma 3 Tools to convert the image to .paa and still not having any luck. Still getting error saying the image is not found. It's located in the root directory of the mission file.

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 3:15 PM

#

png is not supported
Did you tried to relaunch the game?
Do triple-check the path, file name, mission folder, etc

flat spade Nov 5, 2020, 3:16 PM

#

I will try to relaunch the game, however should that code be correct for the file just being in the root directory of the mission file?

#

I am trying with the .paa and still having issues though

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 3:17 PM

#

Sometimes, it is obviously sounds stupid, but, there's a possibility that you're placing the picture to the wrong mission

flat spade Nov 5, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

Not sure what you mean by that. The only mission file I have in the folder for Eden to load is the one I am working on. Also reloading the game did not help.

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 3:21 PM

#

Wait,

textures field
Are you sure about this?

#

You're doing that to the field not init field?

flat spade Nov 5, 2020, 3:23 PM

#

Yea, should it be the init field?

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 3:24 PM

#

setObjectTextureGlobal is a command to use in init or somewhere, not a texture path that have to be passed to the texture field. Just xmas.paa will do

flat spade Nov 5, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

You mean use the code I posted above in init instead? Or just type xmas.paa in the texture field without the rest of the code? Sorry, first time attempting anything like this :x

steady hawk Nov 5, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

Latter

#

I mean, both could work, but do that in the init is slightly stupid at some points

flat spade Nov 5, 2020, 3:26 PM

#

Roger that, I will give it a shot, thank you kindly for your help!

join servers via the arma 3 server launchers browser. if the server requires mods that you don't have, the launcher will prompt you to download them (as long as they are available on the steam workshop). problem solved

3000mhz 16gb CL 15 ram
and installed arma 3 on NVME
but I still get pretty low FPS
( like 20-30s ) in MP
is this normal? my friends with similar/worse specs manige to get atleast 40 fps in combat

weary sky Nov 6, 2020, 4:55 PM

#

Make sure you use the "Auto-Detect" button in the graphical settings, lower/disable PiP and lower View/Object Distance.
Don't expect 200FPS on multiplayer servers, 30FPS is reasonable unless the server/mission/mods are terrible

tepid crown Nov 6, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

I mean I dont expect 200fps for sure but I want atleast 40 so I can see whats happening and not have stutters, and personally from my testing I found that the more shit I turn on the more FPS I get

#

So I am running 125% supersampling

weary sky Nov 6, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

Higher graphical stuff in Arma means more being handled by your GPU.
Lower graphical stuff means more handled by your CPU.
So yes, if you have a good PC it's better to set everything to HIGH/ULTRA.
Expect for PiP and View/Object Distance, lowering those will increase FPS for everyone

tepid crown Nov 6, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

idk PiP doesnt change my FPS much, while distance yea, I set it to 3000

#

would any of the launcher paremeters help?

weary sky Nov 6, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

default settings are most optimized, unless you have specific issues

tepid crown Nov 6, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

so I should disable all the vram limits and etc? also is profiling usefull?

weary sky Nov 6, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

like I said; default settings are most optimized (you can use the "Restore defaults" button in the Launcher)

#

And profiling branch is only useful if you want check what is causing issues, it's not the same as performance (even though a lot of perf stuff is available in profiling)

tepid crown Nov 6, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

there is performance build?

weary sky Nov 6, 2020, 5:08 PM

#

at the moment not that I know of (except for stuff in profiling and dev branch)

tepid crown Nov 6, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

yea I still get same FPS even with PiP on lowest

#

oh well 20 fps wont be fun

When im making a portforward for my arma 3 server it says incorrect ip. how can i get past this?

I pasted my public IP into my router to make the port forward yet it's still wrong

wise barn Nov 6, 2020, 9:41 PM

#

google:
<YOUR ROUTER MODEL> + Port forwarding

#

follow the instructions

pine kite Nov 6, 2020, 9:55 PM

#

I pasted my public IP into my router to make the port forward yet it's still wrong
@fringe salmon Exactly, that is wrong. The port forward is to tell your router where packets need to go (your private/internal server IP address in your LAN: 10.x.y.z or 172.16<x<32.y.z or 192.168.x.y) when it is received through specific ports (default UDP 2302-2306) from the internet on it's public IP address. The public IP is useless use for that. The router already knows it received something on the public IP side. Think of the router as your front door hallway or the lobby/elevator of a big apartment building. It needs to know what door to your living room/apartment building suite number it has to open to deliver it. Your friend will need the public IP and port (2302 by default) to direct connect to it. But if it shows in the server browser then he can search for the name of the server you provided to find it.

fringe salmon Nov 6, 2020, 10:01 PM

#

Alright where can I find this private ip?

pine kite Nov 6, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

Open a command prompt on the server, type "ipconfig /all". You may see IP addresses of multiple network adapters, like for a cable ethernet or wifi. It's hard to predict what it should be for you. The address is literally called IPv4 address. Alternate you can also see it in the Network settings.

fringe salmon Nov 6, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

Okay I'll try that

#

Thanks

pine kite Nov 6, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

Well "ipconfig /all" followed by the enter key to execute it ofcourse.

#

And "ipconfig" would actually suffice

#

To predict/test the needed network adapter simply unplug the cable or disable wifi if there is an external switch. Then repeat the command. One of them would loose the IP address and show disconnected.

#

@fringe salmon be aware that the private IP may change depending on how long your computer may have been turned off and other computers/phone getting it assigned instead. Search your router configuration settings for allowing to reserve the IP address for the MAC/Physical address of the server.

#

MAC/Physical address will be shown with ipconfig /all

fringe salmon Nov 6, 2020, 10:18 PM

#

Ah okay

I have a Google home router that I connect to and the home daisy chains off my main router which one do I port forward?
@fringe salmon If they connect in series/daisychains then both. Port forward to the Google home router in the main router. In the Google Home router port forward to your server.

#

That said, I can't find a "Google home router" when I search in Google. It does talk about a Wifi Nest. So, I don't know how your network configuration works in the end. Also, if a router is connected to other routers from it's LAN side, and not on it's WAN port, then it acts just like a switch. No need to port forward then and DHCP would need to be off on it.
