strong basin
misty locust
i haven't even been able to play the game yet
steady hawk
Write what exactly is happening and what did you do. Not summary, details
misty locust
When i click play on the arma 3 launcher i get the error 0xC000012F bad image. When i checked arma3_x64 in microsoft dependency walker it says that D3DX11_43.DLL and D3DX10_43.DLL are corrupted(i have screen shots with more detail). I went to steam and verified the file after reinstalling the game and steam said it found nothing wrong. Then i tried reinstalling directx through the steam common redist file and that didn't work. I also uninstalled all the c++ programs restarted my computer and then reinstalled them. That also didn't work. I tried using the command prompts DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and sfc /scannow and it said nothing was wrong. I've repeated all these things about 10 times
steady hawk
Can you try dxdiag?
misty locust
then what
steady hawk
Check DirectX version
misty locust
its version 12
steady hawk
Where/how did you reinstall DirectX?
misty locust
through the june 2010 DXSETUP.exe
from the steam apps file and the Microsoft website itself
steady hawk
Do you have d3dx11_43.dll in Windows/System32 and Windows/SysWOW64 for sure?
misty locust
yes
steady hawk
How big it is in the terms of filesize? Mine is 276,832 in Sys32, 248,672 in WOW64
misty locust
276,832 in wow64 and 276,832 in sys32
steady hawk
Can you delete WOW64's those DLLs and try again to reinstall DX?
misty locust
i double checked the one in system32 and dependency walker and it say they are corrupted but the ones in wow64 are fine
but i can do what you asked
steady hawk
Oh wait
misty locust
?
steady hawk
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35
Did you tried this?
misty locust
yes
it says it can do anything because directx has a newer or equivalent version already installed
should i copy the uncorrupted dll from wow64 and use them to overwrite the ones in sys32
steady hawk
Not sure but I don't think so IMO
misty locust
well should i download new ones then for sys32
steady hawk
So, when you install the DX June 2010 or whatever thing, you got a lot of cabinet files right?
misty locust
yes
steady hawk
Then you should have Jun2010_d3dx11_43_x86.cab
steady hawk
So _43_x64 too?
misty locust
no
misty locust
oh yeah i got that one
steady hawk
Try to look, check the dll inside and copy them into proper location manually, x86 version to system32, x64 to WOW64
misty locust
okay
just to confirm this goes in d3dx11_43_x86.cab 32 and this d3dx11_43_x64.cab goes in 64
steady hawk
Not cab itself, look inside
misty locust
yeah sorry i just men the dll itself
steady hawk
Yeah. That's my guess
misty locust
okay i did that
steady hawk
Maybe restart your computer and try to launch Arma 3
misty locust
now i get this error 0xC000007B
steady hawk
Well, at least better than nothing I think?
Try this:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/1/1319962683449056224/
misty locust
well im checking the files again on steam just in case cuz dependency walker says there arent any corrupt files for arma anymore
holy shit
Bro your a fucking god
steady hawk
Can I expect something cool?
misty locust
a kiss
steady hawk
Approved
steady hawk
Glad to hear that it fixed. Enjoy the game then!
misty locust
this is going to be extremely anti climactic but im going to bed now
ive been up for 4 days trying to fix this
steady hawk
I hope everything is worth it for you!
misty locust
This game is my temporary flight sim until I have the money to have a proper dcs setup
pine kite
well should i download new ones then for sys32
NEVER download lone DLL files from fishy sites!!!
steady hawk
NEVER download lone DLL files from fishy sites!!!
Sorry about my poor internet connection
pine kite
Ok, but that is downloading the installer from Microsoft. Nothing wrong with that. I'm more talking about sites that offer you individual files to repair your system when you search Google for their name. That is asking for malware infections.

Anyone have problems with either lambs or vcom killing the player via a friendly scorcher? My character has dropped dead twice now, once at the very beginning of a mission with no known artillery nearby, from this...
Also no explosion, player literally just falls to the ground and dies

native mica
anyone know how to save performance on trees placed in editor. I'm making a mission with a lot of placed trees and its tanking the fps even though its in vr,
steady hawk
Editor-placed objects do worse performance than Terrain objects. You can use Simple Object perhaps
native mica
im using the mod metis nature. (https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=1951690856)
is there any way to manually set it do simple object? There is no option for that in the attributes sections of the trees.
(they are all already disabled sim)
steady hawk
steady hawk
Then use createSimpleObject command manually
I don't know if it would solve the performance
native mica
would I just use createSimpleObject on each of the inits of the trees then?
mental river
would I just use createSimpleObject on each of the inits of the trees then?
No you just use the command from the start

This mod was integrated into Arma itself with the 2.00 Performance/Profiling branch and is now OBSOLETE.

you shouldn't use it anymore
it may cause crashes

OK i figured this one out, it's gotta be ALIVE/VCOM/LAMBS and the spawned units slowing down the scheduler, jumping to the edge of the map and it works fine.

Okay, cool. Now to find some radio style sounds...

Is playSound3D an absolute no-no even on short radio sounds?

Because a radio beep is 2d

exotic ridge
can someone help me
i have subscribed to several mods
and most of them downloaded and installed but 4 remain
and steam is like spasing out
i have tried to repair the mods but it doesnt help
the mods are Cup - core, RHSAFRF, RHSGREF, RHSUSAF
mental river
and steam is like spasing out
Wdym?
exotic ridge
it like downloads
for half a second
then it disapears
i had this happen for all my mods
but i simply repaired them
and it worked
but for the last 4 it doenst work
mental river
Does steam say anything at all about the download?
robust pollen
ive tried restarting my pc
you might have to clear steams download cache, sometimes it just gets messed up
exotic ridge
ive done so
robust pollen
especially on large files
mental river
ill try again i guess
You didn't answer my question
exotic ridge
Does steam say anything at all about the download?
idk what you mean by saying anything
there is no error log
mental river
If you go to download in Steam it should show something
if nothing appears at all, it means Steam thinks you have no downloads
so just unsubscribe and subscribe again
exotic ridge
no there is stuff
from arma
but it downloads for half a second then it disapears
it starts the download

then downloads (or downloading)
Don't touch anything else (like content and stuff)

summer pollen
none of my friends seem to be capable of hosting a server / none of my friends can connect to a server
UPNP, manual port forwarding, attempting different levels, hosts, etc has not fixed it for anyone
all it says is "server is not responding"
everything i know tells me the port is open
wise barn
!localhost
rustic eagleBOT
wise barn
then: mod issue
summer pollen
before S.O.G
no mods used
only S.O.G
completely vanilla game
none of my friends are using a modded game either
and are all launching with the required dlc enabled
the find a game menu is also completely broken
it just instantly closes
hosting normal arma 3 works perfectly
only S.O.G is broken
it seems
uncut trellis
is Steam gaming ports also open?
summer pollen
i'm not sure- what port is that?
i'm also not sure why it would be necessary considering arma 3 works fine
but arma 3 S.O.G doesn't
also there are so many ways to host
like whoever coded this left in at least four or six separate "Host server" menus
all of which look slightly different than the rest
and are accessed slightly differently within submenus hidden within submenus
it's so convoluted
there are also three different server browsers, of which two work and one breaks instantly
and within that there are two different options for server browsers neither of which seem to work
it's quite confusing
i'm not sure how this was able to be released
no offense i am sure it's incredible once you get to play it
but my lord there are quite a lot of hurdles to jump through
uncut trellis
there should be nothing else needed for SOG in reagards of hosting. It is the same. If "normal hosting" works, then SOG hosting should also work.
summer pollen
exactly
which is why we are confused
arma 3 hosting works perfectly fine
SOG does not
there should be no difference
uncut trellis
so if you hit the host game button there what happens?
summer pollen
we can host but anyone who attempts to join gets "server not responding" as an error if they attempt to join via steam
or, if they attempt to join via the ingame server browser or direct connect
they just get shown the arma logo and are sent back to the main menu
uncut trellis
can you join the officially hosted SOG servers?
and do you use the Arma Units?
and if yes, have you tested without uniits
summer pollen
we are testing on official servers now
i'm not sure what you mean by arma units
official servers work
uncut trellis
if you dont know what units is, then you probably are not using it
summer pollen
that would stand to reason haha
uncut trellis
when you host do you use the standard settings?
and has the hosted server been set to Internet?
summer pollen
it's set to internet with the 2302 ip
uncut trellis
it does sound like the issue is unfortunately consistent since you can join other servers, so that side does work, just not in your circle of friends for some reason
uncut trellis
yeah
uncut trellis
firewall could be blocking something I suppose

pine kite
it's set to internet with the 2302 ip
If you are hosting a game, doesn't matter if it is SOG or not, your friends will be knocking on your router's door, through ports. And by default it ignores that to keep hackers out. If you want a local hosted server to get your friends to join you need to port forward the UDP ports 2302 to and including 2306 to the IPv4 address of your computer. Or alternatively hope that your router supports UPnP and you can enable that checkmark. If it doesn't work then manual portforwarding is advised. Less of a security issue and more reliable. Aside from that your computer's firewall needs to be open on those ports too.
!localhost

The most recent one thats showing is from january.
then just go to this link
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Unusual_process_exit#0xC0000135_-_STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND
and follow what it says
summer pollen
If you are hosting a game, doesn't matter if it is SOG or not, your friends will...
everything is manually portforwareded on top of UPNP enabled
it works perfectly with normal arma 3
just not with SOG
pine kite
UPnP together with manual portforwarding might actually conflict. Do one or the other. And SOG doesn't do anything special regarding networking. So it must be a mods issue (technically the camlaonam cdlc is loaded as a mod: the folder vn) or your files got somehow corrupted.
summer pollen
it didn't seem to conflict before with normal arma
and yeah SOG's content should in no way effect the basic p2p coding
so idk why it doesn't work
i don't currently have any mods installed
nor do my friends
pine kite
Maybe your can find some info what is going on behind the scenes if you look into your local .RPT files when you get this issue.
!rpt
rustic eagleBOT
summer pollen
oh yeah i can check that in a bit
pine kite
For what it's worth. Find a game (multiplayer) doesn't work for me either.
summer pollen
yeah that doesn't work for us either
attempting to join via steam just says "server is not responding"
and every ingame menu just disconnects you instantly after flashing the arma logo
what error does it give you?
pine kite
no error, just flashing the UI like in your video.
summer pollen
yeah
shame that hasn't been fixed
i assume that's been there since release
there's also a ton of different menus for multiplayer server browsing for some reason
the more you look within SOG the more you find
there are like four different ways to host too
all the same ui just slightly reskinned
it's quite odd
pine kite
But I do seem to be able to join a random SOG server through the serverbrowser.
It's not bugged by default. Something must be wrong with your portforwarding/router config. Or your friends are trying to find the wrong server IP.
ruby plaza
My game randomly crashes on Takistan with "Status_Access_Violation"

STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION is really a common error code so better to post more info

that's what i have to assume too
but my port forwarding is set up correctly, to my knowledge
and it mirrors what works for everything else
(ipv4 ip and 2302 port)
and i can't imagine they're trying to join the wrong ip since it's by right clicking join game in steam or by joining through the server browser
hearty cloud
id double check to see if the port is open
summer pollen

always says it's closed
but
it always says all of my ports are closed
even ones i am directly connected to

interesting
summer pollen
i could simply be using a bad website to check
hearty cloud
i just check on my router directly
summer pollen
how do you check it within the router?
summer pollen
Asus
hearty cloud
if you work with a network provider like xfinity its on there website
where did you go to open the port originally?
summer pollen
oh via the router's website
but i don't see a section to check if a port is open
at least not in the port forwarding header
hearty cloud
it should be there, i'm not familiar with asus routers unfortunately. On my router its just listed what ports i opened
summer pollen
oh it lists the ports i've configured yeah
via this menu
if this is what you mean
hearty cloud
yes
hearty cloud
well if its says its open its open 99% of the time

(ipv4 ip and 2302 port)
You need to forward the entire range between 2302 to 2306 for the UDP protocol to the private IPv4 address of the server. Just 2302 isn't enough. The game interface for SOG suggests only 2303 and 2304 iirc . But the entire range works better.

dusky pike
Hello I'm having a issue that happend very recently until the new cba update on july 12 (i assume)
that my unit is facing
everytime i would change a setting it would not apply on the server i am hosting, for example nvg colors wont change, ace medical will not change, for example i set player fatal injures to never, yet, it almost like they instantly get killed in one hit
for some odd reason the same settings that are being applied to the server works on singleplayer rather than multiplayer any help?
I already tried restarting the mission
- applying the settings again
The settings would appear correctly in the "addon options" menu but would never apply ingame
very weird issue any help will be useful.
I assume it was cba because of this error code when starting a multiplayer server maybe im wrong
tulip escarp
I started having a strange issue after the CBA update today. My map screen is completely black. I'm not talking about dark because it's night, I'm talking completely black (#000000). I can't even see my cursor, although for some reason I can still see my compass, but none of the rest of the interface. If I go into zeus though I can see my map normally, but as soon as I leave zeus the map is back to black.
Has anyone else encountered this issue?
This happens both in single player, and on dedicated server.
It happens with multiple mission files as well.

wtf? why are you loading 300 mods? most of which have conflicts too.
and you're missing the dependencies for some of your mods
and you're using several conflicting ACE compat files
is this a joke?
quick jasper
@mental river nope not a joke not a clue i didn't update and load all mods after installation wich have been ticked so they load in game could be because there are mods that are needing updated in the launcher before i can tick them and launch the game
mental river
<@!360154905148653568> nope not a joke not a clue i didn't update and load all m...
well most of your mods are either outdated or missing dependencies, because the rpt is just spamming errors for a lot of missing classes
a 5 MB rpt is not normal
quick jasper
@mental river im updating the mods i want or require for mods to work and unticking the rest until i need them again and then gonna launch the game once every mod ticked has no yellow or red warnings on it if u know what i meant by that each time the game is reinstalled all mods go yellow and need updated and each time dependency are removed there's mods that go red that's the ones i need most
mental river
well apart from that, you're using several conflicting ACE compats
you might want to remove them
quick jasper
@mental river idk were i go from there i have so many mods i cant identify wich is wich and wich ones your reffering to exactly that need removed
mental river
just type ACE in launcher
quick jasper
not enough disk space to update mods just now so its paused it i might have to resume this when i get back from work tonight or at the weekend when i have more time will you still be avaliable ?
mental river
well I mean ace compack log (whatever that is) and the last one (RHS ACE compatible files)
quick jasper
the RHS combat files ? below ACEX ?

hi, I am creating a mission, it worked for MP, now when I update to mission, the file goes to zero octets ... but if I save it as SP , the file seems fine, any ideas ?
brave hawk
^ on 1.82 Linux version
file might be in use - did you try closing/restarting A3?
@brisk ember ↑
also, whether it is saved "for SP" or "for MP" only changes the final file path, not the file content itself so you can safely use it
brisk ember
Ok, I'll see that, thnx

When ever i load up arma 3 and get into the main exe (not the launcher) My headset mic will start making alot of popping and ripping noises that are reaaally loud and i have to leave a vc if i want to play arma, any known cause?
wise barn
USB / BT headset?
fringe salmon
Standard 3.5 but on ran through a controller as iv had issues with splitters just not working
never had this problem till today, everything on arma worked up until loading up today
wise barn
unplug the mic and test with a secondary mic on the same jack. if the secondary mic has no issues, your headset mic is most likely toast

Game crashes randomly with the error message "0xC0000005 - STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION" on vanilla and with mods, have been trying to fix this since sunday.
Have tried:
Reinstalling Arma 3 entirely,
Updating Graphics Drivers
Updating BIOS
Reinstalling Mods
Repairing Corrupted Files on my PC w/ System File Checker
please help my sanity is running lower than water availability in my household

have you tried verifying game files with steam
also launch it with task manager/ resource monitor and see if it isn't just a lack of hardware ability
ruby plaza
I did the verification with steam, and I opened task manager on the performance tab to check to see if it was overheating and crashing but no
my GPU stays at 66-69c

Ill try antivirus thing
But I have changed literally nothing with Arma since I reinstalled on Saturday night,

magic mountain
hey guys, I'm having a very strange issue i've never seen before and it just started tonight on my dedicated server. I load ingame, and within a minute or less all of my inputs become broken - I can't move or turn or click anything, the game isn't frozen but all my inputs are. Somebody said it might be an issue with ace3, does anybody know anything about this?
I have a large modpack on btw but it has worked fine up until now and i can't figure out what's causing the game to break
steady hawk
*Mod list, Modpack is not a proper word to say it. Firstly, make sure disclose more info, in this case Mod list, situation (mission/server) and test in vanilla to make sure if it is a Mod issue.
Did your Esc work BTW?
magic mountain
Esc doesn't work
this is the list
its strange because it worked for months and now it's suddenly breaking
steady hawk
Then a stoopid Mod uses disableUserInput command...
magic mountain
it also affects mouse clicking
i could have Zeus open and i can't actually click anything on the screen
steady hawk
Is it a reproducible issue?
magic mountain
yeah, I can restart the server and get it to work fine for about a half hour, then it starts happening and i can't even rejoin the server without it cutting off my input immediately, and i'm the only one logged into admin on the server
im gonna attempt it in single player real quick
steady hawk
Then the idea: split the half of the Mod list, load the first half. If it does happen, split the half. If not, load the last half. Repeat til find the problematic Mod
magic mountain
gotcha, thanks

Hello! I've been struggling with a CBA key issue on the official mikeforce TFAR servers. CBA updated yesterday but the server didn't, so to play me and a few other players reverted CBA to the previous version. It worked fine. Today the server has updated to the newest version and me and the same group of players updated our CBA through the arma 3 launcher and workshop and it worked out fine, for everyone but me :(. I've tried a bunch of things like validating arma's files, getting the newest version directly from git-hub, redownloading all of my addons, deleting all addons except for those required, I even tried the "repair" option from the arma mod dropdown menu and I am just having no luck. I have some error message screenshots that I can post if needed (if I have the rank to post images in this server). Any and all help is appreciated, I really want to get back to flying heli's!
grim tinsel
Hello! I've been struggling with a CBA key issue on the official mikeforce TFAR ...
yeah post the error messages please
grim tinsel
hm that seems odd
can you try joining via the launcher and letting that set up the mods automatically?
thorny rover
Ok I'll give it a shot
Got an extra screenshot of info that might be helpful. Also I tried joining via direct connect through the launcher and got the same exact errors as before
grim tinsel
dont use direct connect, make sure you can see the server in the launcher so you can tell it to set up the mods
thorny rover
Alright, its taking a really long time to show any servers that use the SOG stuff. Some zeus and altis life servers show up though
Oh wait theres some SOG warlords but no mikeforce to be seen so far
grim tinsel
you might be able to speed it up by having one of your friends join the server, and then using the friends tab in the launcher
thorny rover
Oh yeah thats a thought. I don't think i'll be able to get anyone online right now but I can try tomorrow.
grim tinsel
👍
thorny rover
I got a friend and hit setup mods and dlc but theres a weird thing
The server browser seems to have no mods listed despite the server requiring mods 🤷
Oh right I should probably mention that I got the same errors
I FIXED IT
I deleted the addons folder and just repaired it in the launcher
easy as that
I wanna die that took 2 hours out of my day
mental river
And I’m pretty sure there’s no crash file either because the game never closes
Because it's not the game that's crashed. It's your computer/OS

when i try to download a mod for arma 3 it stops at 4,5/4,5 mb
so? it's correct
if you're referring to size difference, it's because:
- Steam Workshop sizes are sometimes inaccurate
- Steam compresses mods
fringe salmon
"in the mission root folder" impossible to find, arma 3 has countless mission folders, you aren't trying to tell me which one it is

brave hawk
if you want to rename your mission directory:
- rename it from Windows, in the Explorer
- in Eden Editor, load the new directory
if you don't reload it, saving in Eden will recreate a new directory with the old name

better just do it in-game and save yourself the hassle

brave hawk
if you want them removed in solo, you can deleteVehicle them with e.gsqf if (!isMultiplayer) then { { deleteVehicle _x } forEach (switchableUnits - [player]); }; (that you can place in e.g initServer.sqf)
fringe salmon
huh??
brave hawk
when you double-click on the unit, are they set as playable or not at all?
are they surrounded with purple in the editor (red circle = player, purple = playable)
fringe salmon
they're blue
brave hawk
i played in MP
oh and how did you play in MP, from Eden or by another mean?
brave hawk
they're blue
just blue = normal units
fringe salmon
oh and _how_ did you play in MP, from Eden or by another mean?
eden
brave hawk
well, they are not playable then
and this only removes playable units
make them playable by double-clicking on them and setting the "playable" attribute
- standard
- player
- playable
fringe salmon
i was busy and i'm testing it now

Lately, (last two weeks) our community has had missions not loading due to 3CB's RHSgref unit's errors (cannot find/open objects/decals ect.).
To 'fix' the mission, I opened the mission.sqm and searched for the offending item(s) and then using it's location in the sqm, I went and found it in the mission (that I opened in editor) and deleted or replaced said offender(s).
Then saved to new version.
So far it has only been certain factions of 3CB's RHSgref (particularly the new FIA decals).

What kind of stuff could be causing that anyway, I hadn't really noticed any performance issues while testing up until now
brave hawk
do you have an incredible forEach or while, filling e.g an array?

I do have a fair few of those but I don't think I have any operating on very large lists, could it maybe be filtering allUnits - allPlayers through this trigger frequently that's causing it?
_unitsInTrigger = (allUnits - allPlayers) inAreaArray _waveTrigger;
brave hawk
it should not, as it's an array that should be frequently purged
what does your Task Manager say on RAM?

…you want to mimic misfunction, right?
steady hawk
It seems just an aperture thing for me
sour sky
is there a way to change or fix that?
brave hawk
nope
steady hawk
Don't look at something too hot/cold
brave hawk
then thermals are no good in this case, that's it
IDK if it also might come from a mod or not, and even if it were vanilla there would be no solution.

Hm peeps what could lead to not being able to spawn any more blufor units in a zeus mission?
I couldnt spawn anything anymore that was blufor, no could I ungroup blufor units
that leads me to think that it might be related to the group limits, but I didnt use that many units

hi im having trouble getting Task force radio to work could someone help me with it, the issue is that whenever i try to install task force radio as a plugin it just intals teamspeak and i cant even see it in adons section for teamspeak anyone know how to fix?
grim tinsel
hi im having trouble getting Task force radio to work could someone help me with...
"I cannot open the ts3_plugin installers in TFAR's teamspeak directory"
"The plugin installer doesn't open correctly or asks what to open it with"
Right-click the file and open it with the package_inst.exe in your Teamspeak installation directory.
Teamspeak is usually installed at C:\Program Files\TeamSpeak 3 Client
If that still doesn't work, you might need to set package_inst.exe to run as Administrator using its compatability options.

arma 3 with sog
brave hawk
so what is the game version?
hardy light
should be the current version
brave hawk
can you check please?
also, any other mods?
brave hawk
so yeah, that's a mod issue
hardy light
this is the fix ive found for it but i dont have a clue what the fix means
How would i be able to figure out what mod it is?
brave hawk
the oldest/non-updated ones
protip: remove half the mods
if it still happens, do it again
until it doesn't happen, then the mod is in the list of previously removed
hardy light
all of the mods in the list were updated 1/2 months ago
brave hawk
then use the protip wisely

Your game is corrupted. Verify via Steam
jolly pike
Hey so I recently did a factory reset of Windows 10 and had to reinstall the game. After the reinstall I tried to launch the game via steam and it doesn't seem to want to launch. I get no launcher pop ups. Nothing on the task manager. I'm able to launch Arma via the .exe but it isn't connected to steam and it's just the vanilla game. I've tried to verify the game cache with no luck. I did a fresh install of the game and nothing. I also wiped my graphics drivers and reinstalled those. I would post an RPT file here but the game doesn't seem to be generating any RPTs for me except for a random one from yesterday (Which I will post below). I've also looked at this link for assistance and it doesn't seem to be working either (https://arma3.com/launcher/troubleshooting). Any assistance would be greatly appreciated because I'm pretty stumped on this one.

is there a fast way in object builder to fix the Strange convex component issue that spams in RPT?
uncut trellis
No. You'll have to isolate the problem part and remake it. (numerous methods to do that)
Also in the future, modeling questions go best to #arma3_model

Has anyone experienced missions AI freezing since the last arma update ? Running exile mod with both A3xai and blckeagls often freeze while during a mission. I suspect some HC issues?

Private IP addressed can change if the computer has been offline for too long and another device requested an IP in the mean time. Lookup something like DHCP address reservation in your router to prevent that. Register the MAC-address of the computer's network adapter to it's IPv4 address to make it stable. (less flexible solution: Or set a fixed IP address in the computer running the server.)

do you have your routers manual?
pine kite
Exactly for those reasons stated above. You'll have to research how to do that with your brand and model router.
Too many different kinds.
Ask your ISP if they delivered it to you.

Arma is freezing my PC when:
- I'm changing map in Eden, for example, from Altis to VR.
- When i close Arma, after a few seconds the PC freezes completely.
In both cases i've to force restart the PC.
I've the game installed in a new 1TB SSD at half capacity and CPU/GPU temperatures are OK (Never above 60º)

Hi everyone, I have a question about a certain issue that has popped up three times before in this server, although, they haven't gotten a full answer to them.
Whenever I launch Arma 3, I get an error message saying "It looks like your settings are corrupted. We will need to reset them to their defaults to continue."
I've tried validating the files, removing everything in Arma 3 documents and then validating, and from what I've seen reinstalling wouldn't help it either. Can anyone please assist me with this? It resets my control settings, and I need them to stay in one place.
wind robin
If anyone knows the solution to this problem, please speak up. I really need help here.

Fixed! For anyone else having this issue, navigate to %localappdata%/Bohemia_Interactive and move or delete the folder(s) inside it. I don't know why this issue occurred, but hey, at least there's a solution.

Keep in mind, it will reset some stuff. (such as your campaign progress)
