but once you arrange yourself with the fact that arma is not a high FPS game, it can be played very well
π¦
That said
we dont live in 2010 where you only have 30 fps
If your Steam play time is less than two hours, I expect that they'll issue a refund
Funny you'd mention that... this game was released in 2013
i dont give a shit if it is important or not, it just dont make fun
it will
the screenshot doesn't show me anything about your RAM, unfortunately, which is why I linked the video... it's someone playing Arma 3 multiplayer with the same CPU as you have
nah 16 gigs of ram i have
see it like so:
this game is what you make out of it. if you find a good community with a bunch of like minded folks, even low FPS don't bother anymore.
i used to have my best memorable OPs in arma 2 with 15FPS
and since you are german, with your permission, i'll DM you two discord servers of german communities
that would be nice, thx
Bug or not in the launcher. Can't get official servers on the official tab either. Maybe because Beanos and I are 'neighbours', who knows.
16 GB is good, unfortunately what audiocustoms said was the importance of RAM speed and timings, and unfortunately XMG's Web site doesn't show that for this laptop: https://www.xmg.gg/xmg-core-17-amd
Only 2x DDR4 SO-DIMM, Dual Channel, bis zu 64 GB
@fierce kayak
mind accepting my request for DM?
so I cannot compare your RAM against that in the video (DDR4-3200)
i did
wait a sec
π
in any case, I do see that in that video the player was getting around 40 fps on average, 30 fps when inside small buildings
my laptop can handle warzone on high graphics on constant 80-90fps. so why not arma 3 too ?
its the game's fault
Perhaps, but it is what it is.
Which is why I mentioned getting a refund from Steam if your playtime is less than two (2) hours... there's not much else I can point to for FPS other than lowering the visibility (view distance) settings in the graphics options, and disabling the Picture in Picture (PIP) setting
If you won't take audiocustoms or Valen's advice and don't want to try tweaking the graphics settings, then that's all I can offer
That, and 'this isn't 2010'... but this game was announced in 2011 and (as per the Steam store page) released in 2013
hmmmm okay
i wont refund... i payed 6 β¬ and thats not much.. . maybe ill give it another try some time.
Fair enough
I used to play Battlefield 3 from 2011 and iirc that was a 30 fps kind of shooter game
And hopefully it gets performance update where i can play in more then 30 fps
i switched from ps4 to pc bcause many games only run on 30 fps
Performance update have been released recently. But no miracles have happened.
Arma is notorious for being CPU-bottlenecked because the Real Virtuality engine doesn't really have much in the way of multi-threading support. Pretty much the entire game is run off of a single CPU core. There are certain tricks you can do, particularly in multiplayer, to help alleviate this (such as running a headless client to offload AI processing to a client, which can run as a separate process on the same machine or a different one) but honestly it's pennies to the dollar in terms of effectiveness. This is one of the reasons why Bohemia is working so hard on their Enfusion engine for their next generation of games -- it doesn't have this single-core limitation since it's mostly based on Enforce rather than Real Virtuality. From what I understand, the new Enfusion engine is so named because they are essentially working to re-code the important parts of the RV engine in a way that's compatible with Enforce so that it's sort of a fusion of the two engines, although the goal is to eliminate all the modules from RV entirely. I heard that they succeeded in doing this now for DayZ standalone (where there is no SQF script used in the game at all anymore, it's all done in Enforce's scripting).
found this on reddit
Indeed, it requires a revamp of the engine to make it much faster ( I'm not a software engineer, just a support guy by trade)
Unfortunately this is the only DayZ-with-Ryzen 7 4800H video I found, and it's with a 1650 Ti instead of a 2060: https://youtu.be/cASII1Dzxpg
GPU: GeForce GTX 1650 Ti
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 4800H with Radeon Graphics
Memory: 16 GB RAM (15.42 GB RAM usable)
Current resolution: 1920 x 1080, 144Hz
Operating system:
That sounds like my understanding of Arma 3's engine and of DayZ's as well
okay but what do you want to tell me with rthat ?
Oh, I just linked that in case you considered picking up DayZ... it's really off-topic otherwise
oh okay, i have it in my wishlist already on steam
ahhh ok
π
For how-to-play, there's a lot of SP content to choose from in the base game alone
a bunch of tutorial stuff, almost a dozen 'Showcase' missions, and a full SP campaign with a lot of missions
no servers showing up official? its inf loading
If this is the server browser in the launcher, it's an apparently-known issue... for now, instead of Official choose Internet, then search server:Bohemia (as in Bohemia Interactive): https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/141866231362879488/815366945670430740/unknown.png
I'd say server:official but some servers admin like to use 'Official' in their server name
alr joining one
The in-game server browser's Official Servers button does work, but you cannot swap mods in-game: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/141866231362879488/815364739018391562/20210227182743_1.jpg
Hence the usual recommendation to use the launcher's server browser (because it'll handle mod subscription/loading before you try to connect to a server)
There's also the in-game Quick Play button, but that's limited to servers that allow/require whatever mods had loaded when you you started the game
Experiencing an odd issue:
ARMA recently reinstalled after a few days, and decided to setup a new profile and work on keybinds. However, every new boot up resets game, video, and keybinds settings. Occasional mass FPS drops occur in-game where video settings are reset mid-gameplay. Does anyone now how to handle this?
How do I fix Angola addon brg africa not found
when I try to play on a multiplayer server
hello my friend is having problem running arma after art of war update
Nobody can help him unless you tell us anything about the issue
ok, but what's thew issue?
game crashes
my friend accidentally deleted all the arma 3 firewall rules on the firewall advanced security page, how does he get them back? whenever he launches arma it doesnt ask him to make an exception as if you were launching the game fresh, instead it just shows the multiplayer server list as empty. how can he re-add the firewall rules? we tried adding a port rule from udp 2302-2306, didnt work, we then tried adding arma3_x64.exe as an exception and it still didnt work. any fix?
with what message?
that is the crash report generated afterwords
there must have been a big window with an actual error message. what does it say?
(screenshot plz)
The crash report does contain no useful report. More situation is needed
Ok i will tell my friend to screenshot the error
Once he send me the screenshot i will get back to you
Hello, I'm Mootaz's friend
My issue is that I get a Status Access Violation
there must have been a big window with an actual error message. what does it say?
(screenshot plz)
I have the screenshot but discord isn't letting me paste it here for some reason
Is it alright with you if I PM you the screenshot?
imgur it
Already tried all those solutions and no luck
Also updated MSI Afterburner and no luck on that front either unfortunately
Did you verified the game?
I have
All files verified without issue
Read few posts above
so same link for you that Audiocustoms posted above
test the steps mentioned for your error message
as in the one that the link goes to
i cant place the morter backpack
The morter is setup out of 2 pieces both parts are a backpack itself (bipod and tube), due to the size the will not fit in a regular backpack. You can load up both backpacks in vehicles to drive them around to a good position to use them.
ah
You can also only carry 1 backpack so either you take a good filled personal backpack (extra ammo/medkits/grenades/explosives) or 1 of the 2 morter backpacks π
Greetings. I caught the file and ran it through Virustotal. I saw the link https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/56d002d79cad6106c5ae09aeff15db489c85767e6dc71bd43acc16f1393336da/detection
It works for me like this F-Secure and Avira TR.Crypt.ZPACK.gen2
Tag me as you read
typical false positive, complain to developers of security software who can't even figure out that digitally signed files served to millions (or more like tens of millions of users) playing games aren't suspicious
Mmm, thanks for the answer
Hello there, I am trying to start a antistasi server with my friends, I set it as online but yet, my friends cant find the server, I've tried re-hosting and have different people host same problem server cant be found, can someone help me out?
All neccesary ports forwarded on the server?
Do you have an external IPv6 adress?
Yes
Trying to sort out my server hosting issues, but first; when I run the editor on Altis, I get a brief popup "Script functions\fn_flow.sqf not found". It doesn't seem to have any consequences, but it is worrying.
that comes from some mod or mission
Except it cropped up when I was on pure vanilla, trying to resolve my server issue
there is no such folder or function in vanilla
you may want to verify that you were not running any mods or custom missions and that you have not accidentally put mod pbos along the vanilla pbos
No mods, no DLC, I was rapidly flicking through missions to try and fix my server issue, opening the editor too - which would often have the previously loaded mission's loading screen flash on it.
then likely it is some mission thing looking for that folder/file
Great t_t
Ah well, like I said, it's no big deal.
My main problem is hosting servers, and trying to get other people to join on me.
When I host locally, it takes ages for the role selection screen to populate for me... if it does at all.
Oooh, update, I think it's the Warlords missions, since when I have that one last loaded and then open the editor, no missing sqf warning.
Hrm... nope, it's the Bootcamp mission, when I have that loaded previously, it's warning time
Do I need DSL/DS or can I use the one that's in windows console

DSLite and DS are types of connections your ISP sets up for your internet connection
You need either DS or IPv4 only
I tried IPv4 from. Console, did not work so I might need to try IPv6
Arma can NOT utilize IPv6
And what are you trying from console?
Maybe there is a language barrier, but your windows has nothing to do with DS Lite and DS, your Internet Service Provider sets it for you, you have no control what so ever about it
@brave hawk it's not exactly mine problem, but a problem of my friend, he's not here on this server, what should we look for in the cache?
you should use the Steam option to check game files, so it re-reads them and check if some are corrupted (and fix them ofc)
and what should we do in case this does not help?
come back here and try something else π¬
I haven't heard of this issue yet, first time
(for the record:)
Since the release of the newest update (with the new dlc) game always crashes after approximately 2 minutes of playing.
0xC0000094 - STATUS_INTEGER_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO
allright
@brave hawk no results, game files are complete
issue still encountered? mods?
try without mods, see if you can do it vanilla?
Having a IPv6 address is not neccesarily the cause or indication of why Arma 3 doesn't work. It's having no IPv4 address that is routable across the internet that is the problem. IPv4 and IPv6 can co-exist in a home network. But yes, if the ISP provides an IPv4 address that exists only in their network, then Arma 3 won't work.
When I attempt to load in a modpack, it says "We didn't find any new mods to subscribe to." It normally loads the mods, but in this case it doesn't, anyone know how to fix?
You almost perfectly described DS Lite, only thing is the IPv4 is public but shared and the only allowed routing is done by the ISP.
What my reasoning for the suspicion of DS Lite beeing the issue is that DS Lite is a cost saving measure by ISP (as they dont need as many IPv4 that are sparse and pricey) so in about 99%(yes i just pulled that number out of my butt) if a normal end user has a IPv6 its pretty safe to assume its DSLite
High chances, but any one opening a command window and executing ipconfig /all or looking into their router config will likely see IPv6 addresses of some kind. That is only giving false positives as indications.
Thats why external IPv6
Better indeed is to ask the ISP if the connection is DSLite.
You usually cant see the external IP adress in your ipconfig
Correct also, that's why I mentioned router config
Im a little confused right now at what we are arguing about?
Public IPs can be found on sites like whatsmyip.org or .net
Having an IPv6 is not a clear indication.
External IPv6 -> high chance of DS Lite -> contact your ISP to ask /fix
gives you false positive on IPv4 if transmitted via DSLite
Exactly, all you know is that you got a IPv6 adress and a IPv4 adress, there is no actual indicator for DS Type, but thats where the experience of capitalism comes in, its always the cheaper one aka DS Lite
haven't been following the convo, but:
arma server via IPv4 = good
arma server via IPv4 on DSlite tunnel = not good
arma server via IPv6 = not good
Testing if both sides can ping the IPv4 address would work to test this. If it was not for the likely chance that routers may not respond to ping/ICMP Echo requests.
^ arma server via IPv4 on DS (non Lite) = good
You can ping the IPv4 usually
any tunneling via IPv6 is not good
Yes, but not always. The intent is to find a way to concusively test this without relying on a response from the ISP.
Sometimes you can find an option to enable this in the router config. But that is even scarrier for people than attempting port-forwarding.
Make a webserver, make a portforward of port 80 to the webserver see if you can open it externally from any briwser via IPv4
If you have IPv6 and it doesnt load you most probably have DSLite -> recheck setup -> if still doesnt work-> contact ISP
If it works and you have a IPv6 you have DS-> check your port forwards for arma
I think you meant Dual Stack in the last line
Generally if you dont know how to check if a portforward is setup properly or how to test it, you will need to call your ISP simply to know what DS Type you have
Because otherwise you will never know where the error actually happens
Sadly there is no way around it, been there ,did that
Unfortunately checking with the ISP is the only sure way to know this. (for Joe Gamer wanting to multiplay) I agree. It's sad that this can take multiple days to get an answer.
I usually just call the technical support hotline and tell them my portforwards dont work XD
They can tell it to you in about 1 min
That way i got my fancy IPv4 only connection without paying extra XD
I guess your tech supports have shorter wainting queues and 24/7 response.
More of 1 to 2h phone queue
You should not call them when there are country wide issues though XD (Vodafone Germany BTW)
Ahh, then we are nachbarn π Ziggo Netherlands.
@fresh quest
wait a sec... you got vodaphone to give you an IPv4?
Yes
I said i have an issue and my stuff doesnt work
Said i need port forwards
Got a IPv4 only connection
but that's gonna be tricky... since... well... it is vodaphone germany π€£
Yes XD indeed
But i must say i had a whole lot of 2 outages for the last 5 years and 1 of those was a cable beeing dug up down the street so no blame on them
Otherwise no issues what so ever (besides phone not working sometimes, but i dont use it so hmm)
they somehow fried my modem 2 times now when updating the firmware π
I know a guy in vodafone customer support in germany, maybe he can help with things
so nothing has fixed the constant crashing.
my gpu is only at 40 degrees celsius
no headphone
without mods?
good to know
(when the time comes π )
@brave hawk if thats to me, yes its fresh install. never installed a mod yet.
have just tried linking my account with hope but im not sure thats a problem.
cant make it through even half a mission before crash smh
When I attempt to load in a modpack, it says "We didn't find any new mods to subscribe to." It normally loads the mods, but in this case it doesn't, anyone know how to fix?
For my dedicated server I made a port rule for UDP 2302-2306, but not assign it to a specific executable. If I did assign it to Arma3_server_x64.exe then no responses to the client.
And if you list ports seperated by commas then add a space after the comma.Windows advanced firewall is picky apparently.
any advice for changing memory allocator?
i keep getting this error
'malloc' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
use the launcher to pick the allocator you want?
thanks i found it! im having issues the game never goes more then 5 min once loading into a map before crashing
have tried everything except the allocator
maybe i should try 32 bit
try without mods?
i have no mods
wait sorry you already answered that
all drivers up to date, Steam files cache checked?
(I can recommend Driver Booster on Steam, free and does the job)
Im trying to play one mod scenario, but for some reason when i install it from steam it doesn't show up into the launcher
It doesn't have to if it is not a mod. Have you checked the Singleplayer/ Multiplayer scenario sections in the game itself?
oh i haven't checked the multiplayer scenario yet, let me try that
uhh where can you see that section?
oh wait i think it said that it had to be hosted
Singleplayer/Scenarios/choose scenario or Multiplayer/Quick Play/Host Server/(accept server setting with Host Server button)/choose mission in Create game menu.
Antistasi Community by any chance?
Workshop missions should appear unless it was uploaded borked to begin with.
Maybe restart Steam and the game first.
oh dammit, there was an older version of the map and an newer one on the list so the mission didnt show up on the older one. its on the newer one tho, so problem solved
I got kicked from game multiple times today, one of the error was something about battleye.
- I am using profiling branch beta exe
- I have deleted battleye folders and reacquiring it by verifying from steam
- I have restarted both steam and my pc
I have multiple .rpt and mdmp .files (will attach)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
(nvm can't attach files)
BattleEye Query Timeout?
those are crash dumps, most probably unrelated to your BE issue, did your game crash at the same time?
Yes, it did. The only one that doesn't is the one that shows battleye error
cant seem to find out why i put my map name in the server template cfg it doesn't set it as the map
that is how arma do
Hello. Me and my friend just got ARMA 3 yesterday and we're having a weird issue where our mics are being delayed. Whenever we first get onto one of the servers our mics work fine for the first time we press the PTT key. After that there is a delay where we cannot hear each other for quite some time. I'm not sure if we are doing something wrong or if this a weird bug. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well as tinkering with the settings in game. Windows is definitely picking up the sound and I am using chats in other game with no issues. Has anyone run into this before or have any ideas what could be going on/what we could try?
anyone having issues with player slots since the latest dlc/update? I thought it was just some mod issue with my latest mission, because upon launcing on my dedicated server or local host, there were no player slots. I've had a similar issue before that is usally fixed by merging the missing with a new SQM, but no dice here. I managed to get it working after starting and restarting the mission in the editor a few times, which is strange, but upon hosting in dedicated no slots still, and it's random whether these slots will show up in the editor/local host. But after trying to host in vanilla with no mods, I still get the issue, no player slots despite playable/player boxes ticked. I even tried launching an official mission and I get the issue.
I haven't seen anyone else really with this issue except one post on the steam forums, anyone got any clues? I'm currently reinstalling the game so hopefully that fixes it.
yep been having the same probs
If I end up not receiving any help in here is there somewhere I can submit a ticket or something of the sort?
@carmine smelt
tried another server?
tbh, this is the first time i'm reading about such an issue... and i have read about a a lot of issues
Yeah. I've scoured Google and I haven't been able to find anything like this even mentioned
Okay I completely reinstalled Arma 3 and all mods, I still get the playable units thing even with no mods installed. Doesn't seem like a widespread issue at least, but it kind of messes up my plans since I run an Arma group and I can't seem to get any new missions working(old ones work sometimes?). Any help appreciated
wait maybe it is working vanilla, will double check
okay reinstalling seems to have fixed it mostly still some issues in editor but with some fiddling I got it working
i cant use a uav in the virtual arsenal
Does your character have a UAV Terminal equipped?
Yes
Cant connect to any server it is saying "Connection Failed"
It's thirdparty something. Not Arma related
my bad
Hi, I bought Arma 3 some days ago. I'm trying to host a server to play private matches with a friend of mine, but I can't figure out how to do that. In fact, we've already created the server, but my friend can't see it and I can't see his when he creates one. I've already opened ports 2302 and 2303, but it doesn't work. Can someone please explain how should I create it?
what is your IP adress? Is it IPv4 and is it a public one or behind Dual-Stack/Carrier-Grade-Nat?
Explain please?π
go to your router and look what IP address you have there listed (the one you get from your provider). then look on this site https://www.whatismyip.com/ what it shows for a IP. if your router and the website shows two different IPs then you are behind carrier grade nat and won't be able to play just like that with friends
hi i'm his friend, i have the same public IP but when i go to console command and ipconfig they are different
ipconfig doesn't show your public ip, just your private. In this case we have to sort out if your network is reachable from outside or not
and you can look that up in your router which shows your IP from the provider and from the website I mentioned which shows how your IP looks to the rest of the world
IPv4?
public IPv4
good then it's just a port forwarding issue. make sure that inbound/outbound port (2302 if you keep it default) is forwarded to the private IP of the PC you want to connect to (normally starts with 192.XX or 10.XX)
yeah we have opened TCP and UDP 2302 and 2303
i have even enabled UPnP
you should disable that in the router, never good to have it enabled. is the arma exe also allowed in the firewall?
yes i know that its bat to have it enabled but i tried to see if that worked
I made a mistake because probably I didn't allow it, how should I do to enable it?
how do i allow arma in the firewall?
you normally get the window to allow it the first time you run arma, else you have to go to the windows firewall and allow it there

Thank you, now it works!!!π
glad it does, have fun π
Hey guys, someone in my community keeps getting random PBO errors. One was a oldman.pbo, the other was this one in the picture. He is able to join our server and was in the game moving around, loading a louadout,etc. Randomly it would then kick him out for a pbo. Any ideas? https://gyazo.com/78a8dac0bdb1f31d87f65e4954a79071
Me and 2 other friends are new to the game, when we try to load into servers it either crashes, disconnects, or we get various error messages such as
File mpmissions/__cur.mp.altis/von_plus_gui/gui_elements.hpp, line 22: .rsctext: member not defined
I was doing the bootcamp and it suddenly put me to a blue screen saying there was a problem and my PC was restarting. When I got back my entire PC didn't have audio.
@fresh tundra
USB audio device in use? Headset, BT dongle, ect?
I have a plugin headset.
What is a "plugin headset"?
I just plug the headset into my PC.
I think a 3.5mm jack.
Is it a rectangle, or round?
Round.
Your regular windows audio options.
Set the default output device to be your headphones, and your default input device to be your headset mic
I'm there but I'm not seeing a restart option.
Setting your input and output to what I described is meant to be 'reset'
There is no 'option' like that
Oh, they're already set to my headset.
Double check and test if it's working
Doesn't work.
Which server? It must have shown a name. Then we can verify on our side if it's the server or your install that's going wrong.
Reinstall your audio drivers
warning: Current Steam AppId: doesn't match expected value: 107410
anyone else got this error
validate your game installation via steam
manual validation
can anyone else use the A3 luancher rn? me and my friend cant get it to work
never mind works fine now
So I have a small problem with not being able to change my keybinds
I press Ok on both windows to save the new ones but it never saves
anyone knows a fix to this?
are you using the default profile or did you make a new one?
cuz typically the base default profile has troubles with keybindings.
New one
hello, i have a backpack, it has got an RPG in it but i could not equip it
i've tried numeric keys for example 1-2-3, i've tried to drag it to the middle weapon slot
nope
it does not work
what's the problem?
here's the screenshot
You're trying to load a rocket into the weapon slot
Its a rocket, not a launcher. You're trying to drag in ammunition.
That is not a launcher
the item you're hovering over is just the ammo
cough let me pass out the ninjas real quick 
Dw, we all did silly mistakes often enough :D
Dotn worry, I've seen much stupider questions in my time here so yours is pretty normal 
Maybe you can use that ammunation using a hammer and bonk it π
i would like to get a clean headshot on my head:)
by the way i am a newbie, i am a rookie and i would like to join a team, can you help me?
what are ur suggestions?
If you mean a group to play with I recommend having a look at #communities_arma3
When i use my hotas and enable it i get 8 fps, other people with the same mods in our unit are fine with theirs... is this a problem that occurs a lot and can someone maybe help me?
Good afternoon, I'm here to see if someone could help me with the corrupt memory error that I get in several games with the battleye service, I've tried all the methods I've found on the internet.
Who can I contact to see if I can solve my problem? I have been trying to solve it for several days.
Pls π’
Moderators warned me, sorry I dont know how to use this Discord
I only want to solve my problem and play
Well, Battleye has it's own website. I guess they are the one to support you with problems in different games.
Yes but they do not answer me
How long ago did you contact them? Anyway, maybe they know more about this in #arma_battleye if you post that error.
this the right place for server troubleshooting?
Here or #server_admins
the more specific the channel the better, so probably the server one
When im trying to look for a server to join there are 0 servers showing any help ?
i recommend waiting
When i use my hotas and enable it i get 8 fps, other people with the same mods in our unit are fine with theirs... is this a problem that occurs a lot and can someone maybe help me?
I doubt the HOTAS is causing the low FPS
Sounds more like bad hardware or incorrect (graphics) settings
or bad hotas driver
I have seen this before with my steering wheel plugged in, I have to remove it to play Arma. If you leave an xbox controller plugged in that will hijack certain functions as well and sometimes you get stuck walking forward and other weird behaviours. There is something funky about how they by default get bound and sometimes performance tanks depending on the device. Have seen a whole host of weirdness that its on our Troubleshooting page.
guys im trying to set up my joystick, and ive set the fire button to a button on the joystick, however when im flying a chopper instead of firing I command to fire and cease fire, any suggestions to fix this?
Evening, I'm looking for the command to see which scripts are holding my server performance back. its a command where you can see how long a script takes to execute.
yo im an new player and every time i try to play deathmatch or TDM it says i need to alter parameters and i was wondering which parameters to alter?
its not letting me screenshot
so it says no servers found please try altering parameters
@crimson ivy
well, then edit your "search" parameters.
how are you trying to join a server?
Trying to replicate the error for you
@wise barn just off the quick play menu
Okay its an issue with one of my mods
Iβm kind a new to arma, but I suggest deleting and re-downloading the mod
I have over 126 mods
what issue
I gotta find out which ones broken
?
Its saying something is already defined at startup
uhm..... details?
Trying to get that now
I aint signing up for a new website just to post an image I'll just type it XD
you don't need to
"File warfxpe_edited\config.ccp, line 5: .BIS_AddonInfo: Member already defined."
Happens with mods active
Trying to pinpoint which mod
a mod that contains warfxpe is causing issues
Then the bad_module_info.exe crashes and game commits sepiku
read above
thanks guys
I hope its not my Hueys helis pack π§
The issue started to happen when I disabled ACE - But I disabled all the dependencies too
Now I re-enabled ace and all the stuff I disabled - Same error
Welp
"Unsubscribe from all mods"
I'mma wipe
Fixed it
It erased all my saves and has a crashing problem when I customize my character
profile might got corrupted somehow
delete your profile in documents folder and start over
(make a backup first)
my game says "restart battle eye" everytime i load into a server, i have done a fresh install and obvs reloaded my game
go to battleye tab and make sure the box is checked
When I go to player profile and change my characters face then click accept it crashes
change it to what?
custom face or stock?
Just face
But it will crash every time I would try and i just dont know what causes it to do that
Actually its glasses too not just face
did you backup and delete your old profile (documents folder)?
why not?
i already told you so
Their is a vars, den and another profile so idk which ones I delete, all of them?
All under the same name
Is their supposed to be 3 of them tho
yes. eden, vars and a 3rd
I deleted the main and it not crashing now at least but now I have to do the campaign from the beginning again
yes, because your profile files got corrupted... somehow
Ok nvm the saves are back when I deleted my profile wtf
Anyone have a fix for issue 0x0000005??
not really. Profiling branch diag_captureFrame tells you in general what things are taking up most of your frames.
thats not an issue. Thats literally the number 5
It's not just 0x0000005 but 0x0000005 STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
He maybe running battleeye with ReShade or something like that?
Lemme ask
Also STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION can be caused by many reasons, there's no βone and onlyβ solution
What are some common solutions
Lemme ask
???
Everyone has a memory allocator.
@stoic stump the usual way, report the crash (as the Arma launcher tells you) in the feedback tracker, have probably me look at it and tell you why its crashing
@sullen dune
The cause of that can be lots.
Reaching from simple bug in game, up to solar flare activity flipping a bit in your ram
I pinged him so hopefully he does that
more common issues are USB-Headset, Memory Allocator random messups, hardware issues, random bug in Arma (of which there are lots)
ok will try
Is there a specific reason why you can't use GetOver as a shortcut for an action?
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/addAction
PS: As far as I can tell every other inputAction works just GetOver doesn't.
to do what?
diag_captureFrame 24; executed on the server does not return any result.
Am executing as prescribed: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/diag_captureFrame
it logs to a file on server
But the wiki states "the current frame is captured and captured data UI dialog appears".
What youre refering to, isnt that diag_captureFrameToFile ?
Regardless, it logs to Server profile folder I assume?
The server has no UI
the server cannot open a dialog
so the server just dumps to file instead
Understood. And where does the server dump the file to precisely?
It created a seperate file within the ServerProfile folder. Not as easy to read as hoped, but it does the job haha π Thanks!
you can load that file in the clientside ui
it has a load button on the bottom which will load from clipboard
@fringe salmon steam bugged I guess. Please don't crosspost
I guess so yes
Execute an animation.
it might not work since its already doing an animation
Every other inputAction works and even if I tried to do something else it still wouldn't work.
could be its special
as in it forces the stepover animation
thats the logical explanation I can come up with
But many of the other ones do similar things e.g. the turbo-inputAction (combined with a directional one) forces a running animation.
Its only low FPS when playing with a HOTAS, otherwise i have 60 fps with many mods. I have changed me graphics settings etc. Nothing works its the hotas. But do you have a solution by any change?
Shouldn't you then atleast mention the brand/model of the HOTAS?
who knows, there might be known issues with it's software.
So sorry, but ive been searching for the clientside UI to import the log contents. But I cannot seem to find it
execute diag_captureFrame on clientside
Maybe @Dedmen can bring some light into this.
no
Ok, fair enough.
I am not trying to override it, just to use it as a shortcut.
well if it does not work and if the action plays with some other key as shortcut then you just cant
I bought a server on 4players and im having trouble starting it anyone who knows how to use it please dm me.
I recommend explaining your problem here so people can help you
Hey, I got some problems with my FPS suddenly stalling and load times being a lot longer than before
anyone here know why that could happen?
just lost all of loadouts from the arsenal, any ideas? trying to see if i can recover an older profile from documents
Any reason why the game drops to 3fps when zooming in on a trigger with a large radius? Bit strange never happened before
im still having issues with this game not allowing me to delete my corrupted account
basically from what im experiancing their is a corrupted alternative version of my account and a good one that has my saves
but the other account with the good saves are not in files but how do i know that it is their because yesterday when i deleted the corrupted account it went back to the good version with my saves but now i cant delete the corrupted account
hi there, GM for A3Wasteland Trailerpark server.
Just wondering, ever since the Arma 3 update, our players do not have the ability to talk in side chat after switching from independent. The speaker icon is red. Any ideas why?
not a vanilla issue. ask on the wasteland discord
there is no A3Wasteland discord
i thought there is one... well then...
however you sound confident it isn't a vanilla issue. I'll get in touch with the creator directly, forgot I had him as a contact.
thanks
Hiya new to modding Arma 3 and unable to drag Arma 3 reports in chat should I copy and paste it?
What is the issue?

Those are the main reoccuring issue people from CUP discord said I should ask about it here π
Excuse me, what is the issue?
A little confused, are these not issues as in safe to ignore?
If so is there a way to debug further why a map will not load or it stutters at 1fps when processor is being overclocked to 6Ghz?
Got 2x2080SS in SLI and an extra dedicated to PhysX and 512GB's of RAM via extension tried installing Arma 3 and mods to a RAMDisk after hearing it using my Hard drive so much all the time but no effect besides faster loading, also have the pagefile set to large and installed to a RAMDisk
@ocean forge please explain from the beginning. What is it that you are doing?
Oh i'm trying to run DayZ SP using Chernarus Redux map
Modding Arma 3 using the steam workshop
Chernarus Redux is for A3 IIRC? The map for DayZ SA is named Chernarus Plus
Sorry forgot DayZ was its own game now. I am using Arma for the number of vehicles and other dynamics it has.
Excuse me, what exactly you're doing? I don't get anything
Using Steam to run Arma 3 that has a senario to run a version of DayZ for the map Chernarus Redux. All mods and requirements have been downloaded from the Steam Workshop and not sourced from Armaholic or any other website. Arma 3 has been set to use largePage 32 CPUs with HT enabled. Limited to 128GB's of RAM. Left my PC overvolted by 1.65v over night as the author said it would take time for the AI to spawn and the loot but work up in the morning and it was still stuttering and some of the things like cranes were visually broken.
Other things like floating cargo containers where it looked like boats should have been too.
Spent 3-4 hours trying to run out of the city to try and get less things being worked on at once but no luck with that.
Another scenario I am interested in won't get past the intro as I believe it seems to have an animated intro which doesn't play well with my mods but I am unsure as to which one.
Really sorry if I got anyone muddled new to the Arma 3 scene.
So you are talking about dayz mod for Arma3?
Yep that is correct π
Ok so sounds like you have some complicated mod setup there which is just likely broken.
First make sure your normal game runs properly.
Then test just the map and what it requires.
If that all works then it's the dayz mod stuff that is broken. (which is what I suspect)
Tried running with just what the scenario asked for but I was being hit with what I assume to be things being missing.
There is a scenario I can launch with all my mods but it starts me with guns, a team and vehicles.
Yes well that is likely the broken thing
Anyway to know which mod is breaking what?
Not really
Thats my mod list. I would send it via Discord but can't upload here so had to do it via one drive.
A few are outdated but I assumed they would be okay as they were just vehicles which was hoping they were there own thing so if they break I could see it in game and get rid of it
That's a long list.
But it's not really possible to tell what could be wrong from it
A bigger MOD list = A bigger chance of mess
The main issue I seem to have is ca\misc\garbage_metal.p3d: house, config missing
and lighthouse one missing too.
At least with the main senario I want to run and its the only error that repeats.
Wondering if any of you would know any mods that add those files. Tried googling the exact text with wildtags but only one result and it wasn't resolved.
If a model isn't loaded, it just won't loaded. Not crash
Oh it only crashed with one Scenario that has issues with bones and leaves me stuck on a loading screen. Besides that no crashing just repeatedly trying to load that model over and over again.
CA stuff is Arma 2 so likely CUP should have them.
Of course someone could have been doing their own ports. So impossible to say.
Many others are getting 3-30 FPS on Redux map so I feel my setup should get higher I've even purposefully suffocated the GPU and CPU as well as I/O to test if one of them was causing too much overhead for the other.
No, reduce your MOD list. That's how improve your performance
Are they getting low fps running just the map in editor or running it with some complex and possibly broken modset/scenario
Mostly the mods that were requirements the scenario maker seems quite content on the number of items, wreaked cars and things like that down on the ground but his scenario also offers respawning AI zombies, Respawning loot and doesn't mention about trying to escape the island or something like that. Also has support for Ravage and CUP as well as a few other mods I own.
The other scenario that starts me off in a vehicle however gets me an instant 100+ frames on 4K with sampling up and seems to be GPU bottle capped as if I turn sampling to 100% or below FPS massively goes up further.
But no such luck in the other scenario for the more starting with nothing one.
So it's likely just badly made scenario causing the problems.
If scenario is published it doesn't mean its good quality.
And nothing can really help with that
Hmm will try to focus more on what is causing the bone rigging issues then. Thank you very much. Will talk to the CUP Discord again asking about the ported models from Arma 2. I own Arma 2 if its as easy as moving the models into the games folder? I'm guessing its not but worth an ask haha
No. You should do a LOT of work
Are there video tutorials on how to port assets over from one game to the other game? I only have 4 main errors. 3 are missing model configs and the 4th is bone rigging.
Yeah no it's not very simple like that
More then happy to try and put some work in and upload the missing files if it wouldn't be breaching any of Armas copyright or anything like that.
It does not work by just copying some files over.
First of all you should test if the redux map has those errors alone.
And if you in the end really want to go through adding the objects you would have to set up the modding tools and development environment and use the public release data packs of Arma2 data to set up the new addon with those models in it.
And even if you do that I highly doubt it would fix your problem
Thank you very much for your time and helping me. Will do that to test it now. I know Redux itself doesn't have bone issues or lag natively but unsure of the error exactly. If Polpox thinks I should try and do it then will try my best to get it working. Would be happy to share the modlist if anyones interested if I do get it working
It's likely just the scenario being bad quality.
It sounds like it has million things happening
Yeah its great to look at, well if the boats were there too but besides them it looks like a place that's been nuked but some of the wrecked cars feel a bit too wrecked personally. Something that blew up a car would damage terrain and buildings too just hard to find a good redux scenario that I know has vehicles that spawn/respawn and loot as well as AI that respawn. The scenario that gives me the Humvee has a full road of destroyd vehicles as well as helicopters flying over killing all the zombies. Got looting working for both bodies and objects but I am unsure it loot respawns and its a bit too chaotic and feel way too overpowred from the beginning. Want that sort of hard slow grind that makes it feel rewarding after.
Anyone know why this isn't loading onto the server? When trying to load the pbo this is the error.
no entry bin for bin/config.bin/cfgworlds.lingor3
missing mod
Anyone ever had an issue with ACRE2 where people will just stop being able to hear you? TS still pics up my mic and I can hear people ingame, but they cant hear me. Only fix is full TS restart
Seems to be an issue with TeamSpeak. TFAR is similar issues
I've been having an issue where my mods are not automatically updating. Steam seems to recognize that there are updates, but I have to manually right click the mods and hit "repair" for it to actually download the update now. Nothing was changed as far as any settings that I know of, it used to do it automatically. Any ideas?
If the launcher is running Steam won't download updates. So either close down the launcher and let Steam do its thing, or 'repair' manually in the launcher
My friend keeps getting 0xC0000005 - ACCESS_VIOLATION
It happens within 5mins of joining a server and playing
Hey im trying to host a game for friends, got the UPNP set up and have definitely clicked internet
but they cant even see the server
like its not in friends
if they search for it in internet its not there
Any ideas?
I've been experiencing a pretty annoying bug that has seemed to persisted even after completely reinstalling the game and using no mods. The fia car list is completely broken in zeus and three of each vehicle are listed and their textures are broken. Any fix to this?
I'm not using any mods, and I am on a vanilla zeus scenario.
It's also occurring for a friend of mine, we've both tried reinstalling arma, but nothing seems to fix the issue.
ah..sorry
i mixed up FIA and IFA
anyone know how to fix the problem when you cant open a map while in a vic?
any idea why arma 3 only uses half of my throttle axis?
Hello so I have arma 2 operation arrowhead. And so every time I play an Scenario and go to play a save I get this message of: "You cannot play/edit this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted. ca_missions_acr, woodland_acr, bootcamp_acr, mountains_acr" I have the steam version of arrow head since I got it for a sale but I didn't buy the Army of the Czech Republic DLC is there a way I can fix this. Or will I have to spend 10 bucks to get this to work? I am not sure how to go about this because I have been trying to remedy the issue all day. Also I purchased the British Armed forces and PMC DLC separately. Any sort of advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks π
So I've deleted everything, documents, steam apps folder, everything. And the bug persist. Have no clue what else I can do.
Every A2 DLC can be used by free since they have free counterpaet. Look inside the A2 folder and if you can install it
Ah I see thanks π
...Wait do you have A2:CO or just A2:OA?
Well I had Arma 2 For a long time it never ran on my old pc, then I bought A2:AO Separately then got some dlc with it. sorry for ping
So you have both? Nah never mind my last, you should have everything
Yea I should But man arma can be confusing I also recently picked up 3 will there be any issues of that sort?
More like A2ACR is the issue. That is a some weird stuff
Hey after last update I noticed some micro lags while playing koth
I used to run profiling
And after windows reinstallation cant find beta in the steam library
Any one experienced this
@brave hawk hello, if you remember some time ago, i described an issue here, he deleted entire arma and all files from computer and downloaded it all again, but now his game crashes every time he tries to connect, so basically he starts the game, finds a server connects and while connecting game crashes, or better say game just exits, no error nothing, game just closes, can you help?
I have no game sound at all arma wont show up in the volume mixer
It was working fine last night but this morning it has stopped working
Arma uses your default sound device
The problem is it's not in the volume mixer at all
is it running?
yes
have you tried restarting it?
anyone know why i cant see a pbo file ive been sent?
ive put it into my mpmissions folder
but cant see it when i go into editor and search for it
into my documents one
ye try unpacking it into a normal file
make a feedback tracker ticket with your crash dump please @covert hinge
how do i do that
Why does steamcmd say that my app is already up to date when i dont have the server in the directory
because that directory is empty
Hey all, Iβm trying to load into my dedicated server that requires mods and I got stuck on a loading screen after choosing my role, I can hear the game and the environment but I canβt load in nothing on server logs any fixed thanks π
got an arma 3 server with some mods on it. cant hear the sounds of the modded guns when someone else shoots it. anyone know why?
make sure that you have the same mods installed @ruby kayak
i have the mods installed. unless its a diffrent one thats almost the same
could be that server isnt loading them right. but wouldnt know how to find/fix that
bin/config.bin/CfgVehicles/UK3CB_B_MH9_Unarmed/AAF/AnimationSources/AddTread/: Cannot find vase class 'AddTread' help arma crashes upon launching

UK3CB part of the error suggests
Nope...
Nope what? 3CB is a famous MOD indeed, you should have it. Or, some relevance
The art of war showcase "Cultural Property"
I can't seem to get into it, I only have the option of purchasing, but I've purchased the AoW and restarted my Steam Client. Is this a common issue at the moment or is my Arma being Arma?
Did you restarted Arma 3?
Yes, had to in order to restart Steam
Do you have the DLC for sure? Can you check via Arma 3 in Steam Library > Properties > DLC?
I can't recall ever having an issue like this, I've purchased all the DLC besides the creator DLCs, I can confirm I see it in the DLCs tab
And Purchase history on Steam?
Yep
Hmm π€ I didn't have the issue like this, could play the Showcase just normally. Can you launch again and make sure it's happening yet?
I will restart my game and try aagain
I still have the "Purchase" button for the showcase
Can you verify your game?
I'll do that now
@steady hawk
Hey, that has solved the issue, thanks!
slaps the game this game sometimes corrupts itself somehow
Ha yeah, Arma Logic is my usual answer
My mods arent downloading
it says "ready update qeued"
But on steam it says that its complete
when I press force download it dosent work and says "it seams that the launcher is waiting for steam" I have restarded my computer twice. What should I do
nvm it just update by itself lol
Maybe it put the server files in the wrong place because the serverpath was incorrect or different than intended. Hard to say without more evidence of what happened or how you started it. Also, dedicated server stuff is perhaps more for the #server_linux or #server_windows
hello i would love it when someone can help me xD
Nobody unfortunately
xD
That is not a way to ask
explain problem in detail.
Chances are low that someone will say "I'll help you" without knowing at all what you need help with and probably not being able to help with what you turn out to want
my ace menu doenst work anymore, my personal arsenal doesn't work and when i go into arma 3 settings they don't appear
CBA loaded?
try loading just one mod and seeing if that works
okay
Hey all, I'm at my wits end - we have a mission template for a modded server and when we add a Zeus Game Master module that mission template causes the server to repeatedly reload the mission and never actually starts/allows players to connect.
If we remove just that game master module, the mission loads perfectly fine and works as expected.
Mission (with GM module) works fine from Eden
take a look at the servers rpt log @tardy tartan
The only thing of note is that A3 was not found and the curator DLC wasn't in the list of loaded mods
can you upload the rpt log somewhere and sahre it here?
It's not dumping one - think it might be the hosting provider being dumb
I'm just reading strict console output as it comes
it should be producing an rpt log

Hey i have a problem: Everytime i open something in a mission that has a loading screen (virtual arsenal for example) the loading screen opens and it gets stuck and doesnt load and the only way to get out is to ALT+F4. It happens with and without mods, on the mainbranch aswell as on the Creator DLC branch. After a reinstall it still happens
Hi all. Wondering if you could help me with this one.
I cannot change any keybindings in arma. When i exit the controls section the configuration resets to default. Demonstrated in the following short video: https://z.zz.ht/iZkya.mp4
Troubleshooting steps taken:
-Trying a new arma profile
-Checking if the profile attributes are on Read-Only = box is unchecked.
-A fresh install of arma
Known bug iirc
@grim tinsel If its a known bug, might there be a known fix for it?
Not sure, maybe @mental river knows
do you use oneDrive for saving windows user data?
It's a recent bug (happening since last update). I think it is either being fixed or already fixed.
Anyway, at the time the only way to change them is editing your arma profile settings manually (using text editors like notepad++)
Unfortunately since you're dealing with numbers you'll need some sort of reference to understand what they are. You can either read them in game (e.g if you want X find an action that uses the X key and then read the value from the file) or use DIK codes.
Eek. That sounds like fun and a lot of work. Guess imma wait for that fix to get pushed.
Which branch of the game are you using though? We only know about this happening on Development and Profiling branches, not main branch.
2.02.147374 seen in pause menu.
I think thats post-hotfix
I`m on profiling. Was on it as it was suggested here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2161450086
Do you think getting back on main branch might solve it?
It may, but you'll lose some of the most recent performance improvements / fixes, until this issue is found and fixed π
Got a weird one, for some reason when people switch to a laser designator, they're unable to swap to any other weapon until they drop it. Has anyone experienced this before?
Trying to host a server on host havoc, have all mods loaded correctly however in missions there are no slots available for anyone to take
Vanilla missions work fine
This is the rpt file
is it your own mission @fringe salmon
I suppose you could try merging it with empty scenario and resaving
Its weird, it does it on every scenario that involves workshop stuff but all vanilla ones are fine
if it for some reason errors with the characters_f it may mean it does not load any characters
so theres no characters to start in
this could be dumb as hell but is there a way to verify the integrity of a servers arma 3 files? From googling it seems thats a bit of advice people have been given beofre

Yeah im certain that it is
or i have definitely tried
Launcher i am certain on the server im not sure because it is different but i have tried
I think i found a bug. After doing a clean install i think i can reproduce it. Open the editor and place a soldier give him zeus access now start the mission as multiplayer, open zeus place an ai soldier and put the arsenal thingy on him and you will see that it works now do the same thing but start the game as singleplayer and the game locks up (atleast for me)
Can you make a feedback tracker ticket? or maybe ask in #arma3_feedback_tracker if anyone can reproduce
which branch, release, profiling, dev?
i tried it on the main branch and the Creator DLC branch and after the clean install ive only tested it on the Creator DLC branch
Has anybody encountered an issue where
A.) Player is stuck inside of a vehicle
or
B.) If player exits vehicle, other players still see them inside
I'm having an issue where pressing backspace in zeus hides the interface but no object icons. It appears to only occur in MP. The same CBA settings are shared across both SP and MP. Any ideas what may cause this? I thought it was CBA settings until I tested in SP and was unable to reproduce.
The only mods I'm aware of that interact with zeus are Ace, AceX, ACRE and Zen.
When I join a sandbox server I always get kicked after a minute with the error battleye query timeout
Already deleted the battleye folder in the Arma 3 folder and redownloaded through steam. any fix?
#arma_battleye see the discussion there
I didn't see that channel, thanks. Also, it worked on another server for me (deleted all battleye files and folders and reinstalled so that might have helped as well)
thanks for your help!
It seems to be a very specific issue, usually only when you are alone on the server
I have a little issue, my cursor is showed on screen but selects something a few centimetres right of it... anyone knows how to fix it?
just curios , do you have windows scaling active (you find it at the Settings for Display)
can i report bugs here with mods?
RHS US army M136 riflemen are the only AI in the game that can use the AT4 correctly, that is to say, they will use it at all
been experimenting with other RHS units, other modded units, vanilla units, if you give them an AT4 through the virtual arsenal none of them even acknowledge it's there
you can even take the at4 away from the m136 rifleman, give it back through the virtual arsenal and they don't use it
my thinking is there's a script run on the m136 riflemen when they spawn
dunno where i could find it to replicate it though
Mod issues are supposed to be reported on the site/discord/workshop pages of said mod creator. Usually it is not an issue in the Arma 3 base game. RHS has a site of their own, as well as a workshop page. Discord I don't know but they may have another kind of social media place.
alright
Also, I haven't used an AT4 in vanila. So it must be something RHS provides.
Does anyone know what causes this issue with trees? Ignore the fact that this is a CUP map, it happens everywhere
I have a Ryzen 5600X with 16GB DDR4-3200, an SSD and a RTX 2060. This cannot be a case of hardware not up to snuff
This only happens when I look through a scope. When I zoom in normally, it's fine
So i have been using Alive orbat creator to make 2 factions but when i use them its no factions or only 1
hey, I'm having a problem with the object builder, I get the "unable to create viewer" error for some reason, tried everything nothing fixed it
Because you didn't mounted P or Buldozer not available there?
Make sure buldozer.exe's there
it is
Then the argument in OB is wrong or something?
what argument?
the params for the location?
P:\buldozer.exe -buldozer -window -noLand
Try
P:\buldozer.exe -buldozer -name=Buldozer -window -noLand -exThreads=0 -noLogs -noAsserts -cfg=buldozer.cfg
still the same
Couldn't launch by your argument so no idea then
have you checked their homepage?
hello, im having an issue where i can no longer see who drew lines or placed icons on the map when i hover my cursor over it. before, when i hovered my cursor over the line or marker it would say the name of the person who placed it.
at first, i thought it was just somoene who was no longer on the server, but i checked by drawing my own lines and i could not see my own name when hovering over my line. I cannot find any solutions on google, nor can i find anyone who has had the same issues with me. I am hoping to see if i can find a solution here!
im having trouble with my server, ace, ace compats, and CBA, updated today and now i get code z/ace/addons/medical_engine/script_macros_medical.hpp not found. nothing on the ACE page. any ideas?
I recommend asking on the ace slack linked in #channel_invites_list
My friend and I keep running into an issue where our screens randomly become blurry and slowly grey out. We're playing with ACE and I'm almost certain it's causing it but we have no idea how to fix it. Anyone know what this would be? It has nothing to do with our graphical settings, we've tried.
Desperate for a solution because it causes the game to become unplayable and we can't find a fix anywhere. Thanks
@fast pivot No crossposting. I'd recommend you put the question in here,and remove the one from #arma3_questions
What Arma version are you running? profiling branch?
Sounds like ACE isn't loaded. Or atleast the medical_engine.pbo isn't
i am indeed running profiling branch, could that be the issue?
Don't have time now.
it could be, I will need to test that.
Can you see if you can reproduce it when you host your own local server (ingame multiplayer, host server) and draw marker lines on the map?
Also when you place markers there
wait...
if someone got an answer to your issue, he/she will respond
switching back to regular version fixed it
idk if it was the profiling branch or something wrong with my install of it
Its probably profiling branch. Would save me quite some time if you can tell me if its reproducible
hello everyone, for some reason I only get like 40 fps in Arma today. both my cpu and GPU are only at 35%. I have a ryzen 5 3600 and a 3060 ti and play at 1440p
any settings I need to change to get at least 80 fps? it only happens in arma
Hi all. Does anyone have any advice on server hosting?. I have forwarded my ports and stil cannot host a game. I have previously hosted games with no issues but it has become a problem without changing any settings
Checkout #hardware_vs_arma
it seems that when i have profiling version, in local host it does it too
i think ace has just had an update and i think it screwed itself. the arsenal module isnt popping up on my server, and yes i have it set to all official and unofficial addons, anyone help?
Unable to kill the Arma process, says:
Access is denied.
Game's stuck on a loading screen for an MP Server.
5 Mods loaded, RHS + JSRS.
Any solutions?
Only thing I can do at this point is hit the reboot switch, but that doesn't solve the problem.
Does anyone know how to stop making objects look like they combine, at long ranges?
Pic in #screenshots_arma
Wish I could put a pic in here, would be really useful
Does it on all maps
IDK what you wanted to show. Is it a Z-fighting? If so, no luck. Also F12 is your friend
Lowering the view distance, object and terrain detail settings might alleviate the z fighting a bit. But there's no way to get rid of it completely
Ye z fighting is the overlapping of game models so I agree. Though if itβs an scaling issue is what it seems like to me. Or a bug with the mod
Thank you, I'll try to fix it today
@agile cloud Thank you, I found the issue, will be fixing for next week
I need a hand with 3den if anyone knows how I can fix the issue with my script, or tell me what channel I should be asking in?
#arma3_editor for editor related questions, #arma3_scripting for scripting related questions @plucky citrus
Thanks, I'll be in #arma3_scripting
hey guys im trying to host a mission but its being fucky
i edited a KP liberation PBO and im trying to play it but it just makes the background some mist
and doesnt start the mission
all i edited was the config
its probably not a scripting issue but a me-not-knowing-how-to-host issue
which is probably the most crucial part...
your error is in the edits you made
i changed the team presets
changed a 17 into a 4 thats it
maybe its supposed to be an 04?
idk. i have no clue how liberation is set up
load up an unedited version in eden, play it in multiplyer mode, just to verify that your source is fine
next, make a backup of the original and do your edits, retry
I'm having some issues with my server, so I have some people who are able to view it and others who cannot, everyone has their mods ect. set up correctly, but for the minority that cant connect I'm not too sure whats causing it
server issues should be addressed in #server_admins , #server_linux or #server_windows . As for your friends, can they join other servers at all, or only your's not? If their internet service provider has them on a dual-stack light connection (they should ask the ISP if that is the case) then they do not get a proper IPv4 address that is routeable across the internet. So responses of the server do not reach them. Arma 3 cannot handle IPv6 addressing.
Hello. For the past few day's ever since update 2.02 came out, whenever I attempt to tab back into ArmA (after tabbing out), it sometimes shows a black screen with only the cursor. No matter what I do, I cannot close the game. The only fix is to Restart my PC. Any solutions?
run arma in fullscreen window mode
is this the place if i have issues with arma?
jup
nice. than my issue is, that arma 3 keeps crashin after i've loaded in a server. Mostly happens after i pick a role after 2-5 min
crashed
what's the error message?
None
Can someone help?everytime I laugh into a server like king of the hill the game just went to a small screen on the top left hand on my screen instead of full screen
and I always get kicked out due to some weird reaons like battleeyes selpof idk how it is
Write your error precisely
It just won't go full screen when I laugh the game
I tried to press alt+enter but did nothing
Check your video settings
after redowloading arma, my game still crashed after joining a server
i think i need to screenshare to really show what happens
ok so i have a weird problem... I made a mission and tested on both dedicated and local host that kicks everyone out but me. the player's game just crashes. I have no clue what it is. What could cause that? It doesn't crash the dedicated server, it just kicks the players out besides me
if i had to guess, mod mismatch
i don't see how since everything on my end and players end is downloaded with steam
check the RPT files
i did but i didn't see anything that i understand to make them crash
any chance you could have a look at the RPT?
upload latest server RPT to pastebin
can i post the link here?
yes
the player that crashed in that file joined at the 2605 line
only thing there is Ctab but i turned it off and still got crashes
nothing out of the ordinary for me either
Thank, im going to try and rebuild the mission to see what happens
start simple
use a vanilla mission to confirm everyone can join
move on from there
like
create a new map an just place down some units and run your mods
let them try again
i will try that. I tried having only essential mods on the mission (CUP, ACE, CBA, etc) and i got no crashed, turned on ACRE and crashed, i thought i was golden but nope, turned it off and crashed. Its just weird
thx for the help
anyone had a problem with "unable to create viewer" on object builder?
reinstalled a3 tools and buldozer and extracted data again like 3 times but still nothing
How are you launching object builder?
through arma 3 tools ran from installation directory, not from steam directly
but ye, I tried running it in all ways possible still the same issue
So by clicking the .exe in the folder or from the Arma 3 tools app panel?
tried both ways same results
Oki well my suggestion was going to be to launch it from the .exe or via .p3d file association with one of the sample models. The only time I experienced the problem was with running it from Steam or the tools dashboard
I also made a shortcut in the P drive thinking it would resolve the issue but it didn't, I'm gonna try running it with .p3d and see what happens
nah
still the same
I port forwarded with 2302 and enabled dmz and my friend still can't join my hosted server (not dedicated), what am I doing wrong?
the invite friend option isn't available via steam either, but he can join via direct connect

the mission file seems to be broken
F that sticks no idea what did it we saved it last night fine loaded today and busted
can't move wheeled vehicles at random times
and I don't know what causes it, anyone ever experienced this too?
im trying to send a picture but it wont let me
like i said earlier i get an error code every single time i try launching the game it says bad image ive updated drivers, tried reinstalling the game, scanned for viruses, everything, nothing works, its only arma 3 to other games like tarkov run just fine
upload the image to a website like imgur and then link it here please
Please help I don't know what to do if you click the link above I get that every single time I try starting and running arma 3.
@steady hawk So to delete and reinstall directx and microsoft visual should I just reset my pc so it deletes and resinstalls windows and just keep my files?

because I can't seem to figure out another way all the youtube tutorials are of a 13 year old kid with dubstep intros or a robot voice with more dislikes than likes
Yes
Look up right now how to reinstall directx and microsoft visual and youll see what i mean
its a bunch of dubstep intro videos from like 5 years ago
im to dumb for this shit man
Why you're watching a YouTube video that describes nothing but garbage? I sent you the link
yes you sent me the link but the link just tells me what i need to do not how to do it
im not blaming you its not your fault i appreciate the help ig im just venting
This is not a place to vent but to solve
it sucks because I just threw over a thousand dollars into this pc and i cant even play what i wanted to
If you can't figure out even the first solution (verify one), you're out of luck
sorry
yes i updated my drivers and graphics card already and already verified the game cache and files on steam
that was the easy part
That's what you should post before you rant
Maybe something spamming setGroupOwner for a group/object that doesn't exist anymore on the server
I have been having an issue while flying helicopters. Any time I access an ACE menu while in the air the helicopter Iβm flying goes full collective down and loses any sort of control input I am applying. I fly with the Thrustmaster T16000M set (joystick, throttle, pedals). I am unsure if this is an issue with ACE itself or something else. Would anyone have any insight as to what this could be?
you might be better off asking directly in the ACE slack #channel_invites_list
I have been having issues with my dedicated server when I attempt to run custom missions that I create via 3d editor. I place the PBO file in the server configuration where it's supposed to go but I get this message
"1:38:32 Steam AppId from steam_appid.txt: 107410 1:38:33 Connected to Steam servers 11:06:08 Can't find a mission collection / mission with template name: 'Tanoa%20Campaign.Tanoa', skipping to next mission. - this one sticks out- 11:06:09 BEServer: registering a new player #108316910"
I run my server through serverblend. I have attempted to ask them but they aren't sure how else to help. What could be causing that message? And what can I do to fix it?
Anyone know why I would have constant spam protection error mΓ©nages from teamspeak while using task force or acre?
Iβve changed the virtual server settings and set up ignore anti flood as a permission in a server group but still constant error messages.
I also have guys being muted in game so we canβt always hear each other
Really frustrating hoping someone can shed some light on this besides what Iβve already tried
disable spam protection
if you set it as permission and it doesn't work, then you didn't set it correctly
you can also disable it for a whole channel in channel permissions
Okay I have it disabled for the whole channel now
sorry I am a bit of a Teamspeak permissions noob
so I have ignore anti-flood measurements, value skip and negate grant
which ones should be checked and what should the value be for the server group permission?
Value checkbox Set, no skip, no grant
thank you I will try that out
I'm having problems locking on to targets using the Titan/PCML. I'm looking at a vehicle and hitting T, but... it's not locking. Their engines are running and stuff too, but I don't get the locking dialog nor the tones. I do get the range to the target, but no lock. Can someone help me figure this out?
https://imgur.com/a/hTqKsoo - here's what I see. With the Titan, the unlocked diamond shows up, but nothing happens when I hit T. If I go into zoomed-in view and hit T, I can see the range, but that's it.
(I checked my keybindings and all the locking-stuff is set for T as well.)
^ any ideas? π
alright
Having some issues with Eden editor
Not able to export any missions to multiplayer
says it exports it but never actually chucks it into the multiplayer folder
anyone got a clue how to solve that?
which folder are you checking?
mpmissions under documents>arma3 other profiles
iirc it drops it in your game files -> mpmissions
yea
itβs in there now
saved as into the Mpmissions ingame
Just clicking export to multiplayer seems to not work with it for some reason
did you check that mpmissions folder?
as in the one thats in the same folder as the arma 3 exe
Yes
Yes I did
Always empty
thats odd
Yep
But it seems to be working as it should rn with what I did so yeaa
Does anyone know what to do?
I've tried to fix it with the help of youtube video's and it hasn't worked.
Do what it says in that message
report it to the feedback tracker
and attach that report that the "prepare report" button gives you
Alright
Still having the same problem... I'm really not sure what to do π¦
any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
how long was the vehicle running?
iirc the IR locks need the vehicle to be warm enough, not sure if it was enough
Multiple minutes @fresh quest , with both cars, tanks, and helicopters
I tried it with the Stinger and Igla from CUP too, no dice...
I tried it with the Stinger and Igla from CUP too, no dice...
there was some AI setting that made that happen, did you change any of them?
iirc diableAI was that
Ooh it might be my mods, because I loaded with no mods and I didn't have that problem
It could be one of those, I'll check!
ace by chance?
actually no, I don't use ACE
it's probably something CUP-related as far as I can tell
shouldnt be, but try the mods on their own and see when the issue comes back
Yeah, that's what I'm doing right now π
Ah, I figured out the problem!
Apparently, GGE Core/GGE Swap messes with locking on to stuff. Weird, eh?
Anyone know how to change which monitor the game displays on?
video settings > display mode: window > set res lower than your screen > drag the game to the other screen > video settings > display mode: full screen window
Everytime i try to open the game it says cloudprovider not runningproperly what do i do
