when it doesnt do this, the launcher does not open at all

grim tinsel
#

does the text file on your launcher say anything useful?

hollow condor
#

Nope

#

It might but I dob't really know what it means

Hey guys, so I was using PolPox's mod doing some animations and such, Arma 3 ran fine, then I was asked to join a server. I joined. Had an error pop up saying Polpox can't be used for multi-player. So I enter the server it glitches here and there, I disconnect and remove the polpox mods from my mod list. Join in again, but now Arma 3 says I'm a new player, my UI went from black and green to black and orange, in the server the error "Illegal copies will degenerate" will appear in the text box area, and my ACE arsenal reset and it's empty, UI for ace is also black and orange. Any help? Please?

rich mortar
#

it shutdown, gave me and error and a log file

#

and now it works fine

@steady hawk

Got any help for me?

cedar crown
#

I'd try a complete reinstall. As in, uninstall the game, delete ANY files that remain, delete the profiles (can't be too safe?), then unsubscribe all mods in the Workshop, install game again, see if issue persists.

steady hawk
#

IDK, will just change the profile solve it?

kindred jacinth
#

Hi!
I can't spawn my own compositions in Eden Editor. Who can help?

steady hawk
#

What did you do? What is the situations?

kindred jacinth
#

I take my composition from menu but cant spawn it

#

I tried to upload it into steam workshop, but it doesn't work too

steady hawk
#

What is the left L-shaped wall? What is the right L-shaped nothing?

kindred jacinth
#

L-shaped is my composition, right is that composition which I cant spawn

steady hawk
#

Different composition?

kindred jacinth
#

no, same

#

These walls are composition

#

names walls_testin_3

steady hawk
#

So both Ls are walls_testin_3?

kindred jacinth
#

yeah

steady hawk
#

Can you spawn it in a empty mission?

kindred jacinth
#

In a new scenario?

steady hawk
#

Yes

kindred jacinth
#

No, I can't

steady hawk
#

They're hidden?

kindred jacinth
#

In menu or in scene?

steady hawk
#

In the scene

kindred jacinth
steady hawk
#

Errors?

kindred jacinth
#

No, I do not see anything

#

only icons

steady hawk
#

How did you spawn that L wall in the previous picture?

kindred jacinth
#

I made it, when add these walls to composition

steady hawk
#

That's the original?

kindred jacinth
#

Yes

steady hawk
#

Strange

kindred jacinth
#

Thank you for your attention

chrome plinth
#

with prairie fire my friend cant hear any sound in first person but can in third

#

in first he cant even hear the nature effects only the radio talking in the FOB

uncut trellis
#

Since you mention sogpf, do the sounds work if the dlc is not in use?

hollow bane
#

anyone got a clue how to fix this says picture.paa not found not sure how to fix

finite pollen
#

Today all trees in arma 3 on Tanoa are naked with no leaves ??? @hollow bane I have the precise same issue. Do you have an amd gpu ?

hollow bane
#

yep

#

but 2 days ago i didint have this problem now i do

grim tinsel
#

Huh, what branch are you peeps on?

#

and any mods?

hollow bane
#

why is there mods which can affect it ?

grim tinsel
#

Yeah

#

mods can break anything in the game blobdoggoshruggoogly

hollow bane
#

ive been using the same modset ive been using for a while and ive only had a problem with it 2 days ago

grim tinsel
#

can you try replicating the issue without any mods laoded?

hollow bane
#

ill try that now

#

the only thing i can think of which will affect it will be a terrain mod as that is what is affected

#

no its still doing it

#

the trees are there you can see them but they barely visible

grim tinsel
#

try verifying the game files via steam @hollow bane

#

!steamverify

rustic eagleBOT
#

Steam file verification process:
Right Click on game -> Local Files -> Verify Integrity of game files
Mod repair process:
Open Launcher -> Right Click on mod -> Repair

hollow bane
#

ight will do

finite pollen
#

Well I tried that with no effect

grim tinsel
hollow bane
#

validating done imma see if anything changed

#

still doing it

#

just doesn't wanna render in

finite pollen
#

Changing builds, verifying files but no cigar.

grim tinsel
hollow bane
#

wdym by that?

#

like version?

grim tinsel
#

the 'beta' selected in steam

#

if you dont know what that is, its props fine

#

make a feedback tracker ticket please

#

!ft

rustic eagleBOT
finite pollen
#

@hollow bane did you update your AMD drivers today ?

hollow bane
#

no but recently

#

like yesterday

#

i think

finite pollen
#

like after arma last worked ?

hollow bane
#

yeeeppp

#

fucksake dont tell me its gonna have to do with amd

uncut trellis
#

just to make sure:

Arma with no mods or optional DLC works or does not work?

hollow bane
#

nope still not rendering

#

even without mods

uncut trellis
#

do you get any error message?

hollow bane
#

no

#

wait

#

it did say picture.paa but doesnt say that anymore but still doing it

uncut trellis
#

are you in editor?

#

or in live game?

hollow bane
#

rn eden but when i go in game it still has same affect

uncut trellis
#

sounds like corrupted game files then

hollow bane
#

ive even uninstalled the game and reinstalled it but still happening

uncut trellis
#

can you see what version you have in the bottom right corner of the mainmenu?

hollow bane
uncut trellis
#

yeh

#

at least that is correct

#

have you ever manually installed any mods?

hollow bane
#

like importing from a website?

uncut trellis
#

yes

hollow bane
#

yeah

uncut trellis
#

have you ever put anything into the arma 3\addons folder?

hollow bane
#

but i deleted them like a few days ago only mods i have from steam

uncut trellis
#

as that folder is for the games own internal files and if you put mod pbos in there everything breaks

hollow bane
#

i extract them into a folder then put it in arma 3 folder

uncut trellis
#

when you uninstalled, did you clear the arma 3 folder?

hollow bane
#

shit

uncut trellis
#

perhaps some stuff was left behind

hollow bane
#

ill try reloading see if that made a difference

regal eagle
#

I have tried all of this and it still does not work :(

#

:/

hollow bane
uncut trellis
#

have you tried resetting your profile?

#

!rpt

Arma RPT

Arma generates a .rpt log file each time it's run, which contains a lot of information like the loaded mods, or any errors that appear, this log file can be very useful for troubleshooting problems.

To get to your RPT files press Windows+R and enter %localappdata%/Arma 3

Additionally see the wiki page for more info: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Crash_Files

To share an rpt log here, please use a website like https://sqfbin.com/ to upload the full log, that way the people helping you can take a look at it and try to figure out the problem you're having together with you.
Note: RPT logs can hold personal information relevant to your system, the game or others.

uncut trellis
#

or the sqfbin that is suggested in the guide there

#

and latets RPT file

hollow bane
#

just made a new profile still the same

#

fuck it imma factory reset my pc

uncut trellis
#

that is a bit radical move.

#

get the rpt log file first

regal eagle
#

do you know why my server wont work?

uncut trellis
#

no. but perhaps you dont have IPV4 internet connection

#

if its IPV6 then hosting wont work

#

or you have not opened all required ports

regal eagle
#

i have upnp igd on

#

and this

#

the red is set to my ipv4

uncut trellis
#

what does the column that has the ip address represent

regal eagle
#

Internal host

uncut trellis
#

at least in my router that needs to be the local network address of my computer

#

starts with 192.168? yes?

regal eagle
#

yes

uncut trellis
#

k

#

no need to cover that then. those are same for everyone in local networks

#

but anyway

#

try opening these too

#

these are steam ports

regal eagle
#

should the internal host be set the same?

uncut trellis
#

ye

regal eagle
#

and no external, right?

uncut trellis
#

probably not, my router does not have such at all

#

or well there is source ip which migth be the same thing

regal eagle
#

still nothing

#

i get in and it gives me zero error messages

#

no i can see the server in tabs, cant direct connect and i cant invite anyone

uncut trellis
#

did you set the hosting mode to internet?

regal eagle
#

yes

uncut trellis
#

its also possible your local firewall blocks it

#

other than that Im out of ideas

regal eagle
#

is it the computer firewall or router firewall?

uncut trellis
#

computer firewall

regal eagle
#

guess ill never host a server again then

uncut trellis
#

you probably dont have all the required mods donwloaded or enabled

finite pollen
#

@hollow bane Can confirm that reverting back to Adrenalin-21.7.1 fixed the naked trees and missing vegetation

uncut trellis
#

πŸ‘Œ

finite pollen
#

you install the 21.7.1 driver

hollow bane
#

ight will do that now thanks

#

so i factory reset my pc for nothing lol

finite pollen
#

Yeahh maybe you where a bit in a rush πŸ™‚

hollow bane
#

fucksake lol now i gotta downlaod everything

uncut trellis
#

that whats factory reset means..

hollow bane
#

i get what you mean now

finite pollen
#

always start with reverting drivers, updates etc. πŸ™‚

hoary wave
uncut trellis
#

that means its usign that much space on the dirve E:

#

how much free space does Drive E: have?

hoary wave
#

jesus like a couple megabyts

uncut trellis
#

there you go

hoary wave
#

i just deleted a bunch of stuff

#

dont know how thats happening

#

alr time to massacre my drive

#

okay well i now have 100gb free on my E. , 200gb on my D. , and 38gb on my C. and its still not working

#

everything else on steam is installing but the mods

uncut trellis
#

is it still saying not enough disk space?

hoary wave
#

yeah

uncut trellis
#

have you quite steam and restarted it?

pine kite
hoary wave
#

it started but its being weird

uncut trellis
#

it might be it just checks and finds the old installs

little ermine
#

hey there guys, I got an issue

#

last screenshot is no mods/singleplayer
grass and trees (and rocks) do not load but I can see ambient occlusion

uncut trellis
#

this might be same issue

little ermine
#

probably

#

ayymd, huh

regal eagle
pine kite
#

show the error

regal eagle
#

it cant port forward something

hoary wave
pine kite
#

then don't tell Arma 3 it should start the server with UPnP

pine kite
#

If you set the UDP ports 2302-2306 in the router then Arma 3 shouldn't need to do anyting with UPnP checkmarrk when you start the server.

#

Well, what do you use to start up the server? Ingame multiplayer menu host server? Or extrenal dedicated server program?

regal eagle
#

ingame

pine kite
#

Don't set that check mark!

regal eagle
#

alright

#

ill try

pine kite
#

And set host to internet if you want to open it to friends.

outer otter
regal eagle
pine kite
#

that's a steam interface or something, not Arma3

regal eagle
#

ik

pine kite
#

Did you check that link I write in here or #arma3_questions when the server was running?

regal eagle
#

i tried it

#

it made some text but nothing changed

#

ill try again

pine kite
#

it gives text anyway, but was what was in it specifically about your server? Or not saying anything special?

regal eagle
pine kite
#

yeah, then steam can't reach your server

regal eagle
#

so its steam

pine kite
#

did you enable the portforwarding rule? You showed the ports being defined, but I have to specifically enable the rule in my router. Otherwise they are not in effect.

#

Also, you need to have those ports open in the firewall of the operating system that runs the server.

regal eagle
#

i dont understand why this became a problem, before everything was fine

pine kite
#

No, something on your side is blocking Steam's attempt to contact it. Or less likely, blocking the responses of your server. Worst case is that you do not have a proper IPv4 address on the internet. You'll have to ask your ISP they provide you with a unique IPv4 address on the internet. Or if they have you share it with other people.

pine kite
#

I don't have the bottom 2 (as Arma doesn't need inbound TCP ports open to listen), and I have inbound 2302-2306 UDP ports open. Mine works.

regal eagle
#

another guy told me to do it

#

but it did nothing

pine kite
#

I'd say turn that UPnP IGD thing off.

regal eagle
#

off

pine kite
#

Yeah, don't know why that was suggested either. It needs outgoing ports to pass through, and those are usually not blocked by default.

regal eagle
#

what firewall do i need to shutdown?

#

ill take all off

pine kite
# regal eagle

The server needs to be running for this, and you have to have fill in the IP address in it to make it work. Not with 192.168.x.y, but your internet-side IPv4 address.

regal eagle
#

it was on

#

oh that address

pine kite
#

192.168.x.y is private, your home network. A more random number addres is your public, internet address. Again, if your ISP isn't doing some kind of sharing technique.

little ermine
#

can confirm that reverting the driver fixed the tree issue

pine kite
#

That looks like success, and what I'm getting when the server is running. Now have your friends find the name of your server in the launcher.

#

Make sure to find it in the internet list of servers.

regal eagle
#

i cant invite anyone

regal eagle
pine kite
#

Well, I never used the friends thing of Steam. I just search a server in the serverbrowser by name. Can't help with that.

regal eagle
#

i tried with a friend and they cant even see the server

pine kite
#

It may take a while, but if Steam sees your server then it should also end up in your friend's server list eventually.

#

What is the name of your server?

regal eagle
#

just "a"

pine kite
#

Make sure it is running and I'll try

regal eagle
#

password "a"

pine kite
#

I don't immediately need the password, if I see it then it's enough.

#

But there will be many servers with an 'a' anywhere in the name. Not a smart name to choose.

regal eagle
#

ill change

#

"Helpvalen"

pine kite
#

Oh wait, I forgot, I'm not at home right now. I know for a fact the router I am behind now does not have an IPv4 address. So Arma won't connect anyhow. But maybe the server browser list will populate.

regal eagle
#

ill have to continue tommorow i need to do other stuff

pine kite
#

sure, I myself can't try sooner than monday afternoon

#

Are you going to keep the server running?

fringe salmon
#

anyone knows how whats the issue could be with ErrorMessage: Cannot open file 'addons\arma3_wasteland'

uncut trellis
#

have you installed mods into arma 3\addons folder?

#

when does it come up?

#

are you using mods?

fringe salmon
#

using a sql mod and it comes up when launching the server

uncut trellis
#

server like local hosting or rented dedicated server or something else?

fringe salmon
#

local on linux

uncut trellis
#

I know nothing about that. but perhaps this is enough info for someone else to be able to help

fringe salmon
#

what more could i provide with?

uncut trellis
#

that I dont know. Like I said, id dont know about linux serves

#

well not really much about servers in general

#

the original question just did not really have any details to go on with

#

now there could be enough

fringe salmon
#

alright because that was the only error i was getting

#

@quaint jewel I've found a bug with importing custom compositions to public zeus in the current profiling build

#

Is this the right place to report it?

quaint jewel
#

depends on what bug

#

and on which server

drowsy geyser
#

one of the EU Public Zeus servers

#

Basically - if you have a composition with a Nyx wreck in in it (Land_Wreck_LT_01_F), the composition will not appear in the list of custom compositions when being zeus.

#

Took me forever to find lol

quaint jewel
#

Yes because Nyx wreck's are not objects that are allowed to be placed in zeus in general

drowsy geyser
#

Oh I see.

#

Is there a list of what isn't allowed?

quaint jewel
#

just not available in zeus

drowsy geyser
#

Yeah, I can see the Nyx wreck doesn't show up in the list when zeusing

#

But neither does the USS Liberty and I (and many other pub zeuseseses) can spawn it in.

having issues on a dedicated server where when i join it just gives this error:

this is the rpt

Could be several reasons: even though you checked , a mod is missing or got updated in the meantime and deleted said asset/object

OK, so. A couple of months ago, I posted about an issue where I'm unable to join servers and when I attempt to, the application hangs and kills windows. Which required a restart.
Since then, I've been able to join and play on servers that are hosted on Windows machines, but not linux-based.

Is this intentional?

And/Or for linux Servers, is the requireBuild parameter needed?

is this normal or what ? Im new to this kind of stuff and kinda need help?

grim tinsel
#

its odd that all of the menus are extended

hushed falcon
#

That's the thing i tried to find ways to fix it but i see none

#

and can't press some of the menu's

#

that's with mod enable without mods i can play perfectly

steady hawk
#

Then that's an issue by a bad Mod

hushed falcon

When i enable CBA_A3 Mod that happens i tried to find some alternative way found none

#

I'm 99% sure that's not CBA but other Mod that uses CBA

well i tried to run CBA only

grim tinsel

try repairing cba via the launcher

I’m not sure if this is normal. It’s something that’s recently popped up but sometimes the game will crash with a Violation Error then promptly delete the saved ACE Kit I was using. It’s gotten super frustrating and I’m not entirely sure what else to do.

Howdy I have an issue where my server won't show up for friends. I'm hosting it using the Arma 3 server software and I can see it when I load up Arma 3 and connect to it. Any idea if there's any ports I might have missed or something?
The ports I have opened and forwarded are:

TCP: 2344
TCP: 2345
UDP: 26003
UDP: 26004
UDP: 26005

@fringe salmonThis problem has been going on for more than 10 days

fringe salmon
wise barn
#

@fringe salmon
locally hosted?

fringe salmon
wise barn
#

!localhost

rustic eagleBOT
#

To host a server or a game session locally, you need to make sure first that your WAN address / external IP uses the IPv4 protocol!
Check your router’s status page in the settings to confirm. (If in doubt, ask your ISP, Websites like β€œwhatismyip.com” give you a false positive!)
Local servers and games can not be hosted on an IPv6 network, or IPv4 via DSlite tunnel!
https://www.avg.com/en/signal/ipv4-vs-ipv6
Once you have confirmed that your connection uses the IPv4 protocol, you need to manually open / forward the ports 2302-2306 UDP (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Dedicated_Server#Port_Forwarding)
See your router’s manual on how to do that, or ask google: β€œ<your router model> + port forwarding”

fringe salmon
#

Yep it uses IPv4. I have my ports set forward.

wise barn
#
TCP: 2344
TCP: 2345
UDP: 26003
UDP: 26004
UDP: 26005```
?
#

don't get all to fancy on that at the beginning
keep it simple
2302-2306 UDP

fringe salmon
#

I know it hosts and I can see it but now it's waiting till I get someone to come on and test it.

pine kite
#

Arma 3 only listens to inbound UDP ports, default 2302-2306. So unless your firewall or router also blocks outgoing TCP traffic then those are not needed to be portforwarded. I would only choose different port numbers than the default if it somehow conflicts with other applications or you intend to host multiple servers.

fringe salmon
#

Just looking to see if anyone can double check Ive got the difficulty set up right (ie no errors/breaking it lol_)

pine kite
#

Count the number of opening curly brackets and closing curly brackets. They need to add up. Doesn't look like it or you just cut the screenshot too short.

fringe salmon
#

Yarp i cut it a bit short

#

theres one extra }; below

pine kite
#

And I have no idea what file you are trying to put this in so I don't know if it will work as intended.

pine kite
#

Is it the same file as the mission cycle? Then wrong.

#

Needs to go in someuserprofilename.arma3profile

fringe salmon
pine kite
#

Yeah, you have to search the file structure a bit. It's the profile used by the system username running the server. Or incase you start it with the -name parameter then that username.

#

Maybe in some folder called Users. I don't know how that works out on rented Arma 3 servers.

fringe salmon
#

either TCAGame.Arma3Profile or TCAGame.vars.Arma3Profile

pine kite
#

first one then, the later can contain mission progress and likely looks binary.

fringe salmon
#

this is whats in the first one

pine kite
#

Yeah, just plunk that class DifficultyPresets { yada yada yada } there at the end or in between. (but not in the other curcly brackets.

fringe salmon
pine kite
#

Don't forget to change the difficulty choice in the missioncycle to Custom.

quartz adder
#

so is it common in arma 3 for a 3080 to hit 100 usage rate when running on ultra 1440p with 300% sampling?

with 300% sampling? easily.

Is there a launcher for arma 3

quaint jewel
#

yes?

pure cipher
#

@quaint jewel what is it

quaint jewel
#

What do you mean what?

#

You click "Launch" in steam, and it opens the launcher

pure cipher
#

@quaint jewel no like the dayz standalone launcher

#

To play on modded servers

quaint jewel
#

Yes exactly DayZ launcher is the same as the Arma launcher just with slightly different design

pure cipher
#

Bruh-_-

#

Nvm

quaint jewel
#

What else do you want me to tell you

#

you ask about the launcher, I tell you about the launcher and you say "no"?

patent kettle
#

idk what's the difference from original launchers and if it's any better. thomp

Most modded public servers work just fine with standard arma 3 launcher.

pure cipher
quaint jewel

Well if people ask about the "dayz standalone launcher"
Do they mean the "dayz standalone's launcher" or the "dayz standalone launcher"

Same when they ask about "Arma 3 Launcher"
Do they mean Arma 3's launcher, or do they mean the "A3 Launcher"
blobdoggoshruggoogly

I don't know of any reason why you would want a seperate launcher that does the same stuff as the official one.

well bc it auto downloads the mods

how do i fix this

and then the game stops responding

@quiet wigeon

#

i load the game from the launcher

#

it loads until that point

#

and then it never progresses

#

and then the game stops responding

wise barn
#

launch the game directly from the installation folder ..\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\arma3_x64.exe once. if that works, set display mode to fullscreen window, then try to launch from the launcher again.
also make sure that arma3_x64.exe is selected in the launcher options.
i'm off to bed no, if you keep having this issue, someone else has to help you out

  1. Streaming just to troubleshoot/ask question is terribly BAD, since it offers the example only for the people who lives/wakes right now, and luckily to observe your stream
  2. Capture the video if it pops only split seconds. You can post it here so everyone even the future people can watch it
#
  1. Or, if you can't or are lazy to capture the video, ask someone so one can capture your stream, so possible to post it here
  2. Silence won't solve your issue

i think its hardware related

then make sure your hardware is properly cooled down, that would be my first guess
CPU and GPU of course

if those are artefacts (like one triangle line moving far away from an object) it can be GPU overheat and/or wrong drivers

Hello, is it vanilla behaviour for jet pilots to shift forwards and backwards in their seat positioning as the throttle is increased and decreased?

I'm trying to track down what's causing this to happen to me as a pilot, as it makes me clip into my seat in some aircraft, lowering visibility

and you should not seat-clip in vanilla vehicles

So yeh, that effect is the realism of ACE's G-Forces.
You can literally disable it, and any part of ACE that you dont want to run by disabling the option which asks if you want it enabled, and make sure you do that on the mission tab in editor, and/or on the server settings that you are loading if on a server.

Start the server without any mods and test, then you know the base setup is correct. Subsequently add more mods, but only the ones that rely on eachother at each step.

It's been a while since I've used 3CB, but I'm 50% sure there is gear randomisation on their units - I may be wrong though, but only 50% so!

Look for a Disable Randomisation, or something along those lines, tick box when editing the affected units.

Disable the randomisation THEN modify the loadout.

Just wanted to post my FIX for others. I have a rig with realtek HD and windows 10 and I use a normal pair of stereo headphones and NO surround setup. Turns out that windows 10 have a "feature" where it sometime think you wanna use surround although you only have stereo equipment. So windows wonΒ΄t mix the 7.1 audio down to stereo and just serving you front speaker sound in your headphone πŸ™‚ That way you are missing ALOT positional audio πŸ™‚ FIX at least for me is to go to sound settings > sound control panel > properties for speakers under playback device list > enhancements tab > check disable all sound effects. Voila all sounds are back again πŸ™‚

I'm playing the campaign, and at a specific moment, it crashes. It mostly happens at the beginning of the story. For example, I was doing a prologue where the npc teaches the AAF soldiers target practice. After that, I'm told to take something out of the crate. Once I take it out, it immediately freezes and exits out of the game. I tried another part of the campaign (it's the one after the prologue) and it too freezes and shuts down. I don't use mods or anything like that; I'm just playing it normal. I don't know if it's my computer or the game itself, but something is wrong. Anyway, that's all I know at the moment, and I can't do the campaign.

second or third level idk

#

team leader steps on a fucked up landmine

#

what am i supposed to do?

#

like wait there?

uncut trellis
#

survive

heady beacon
#

well then i failed

#

i straight went up to loot him

#

and after i did it that landmine under my feet exploded

#

how can i see the landmines?

uncut trellis
#

you cant

heady beacon
uncut trellis
#

or well if you are very careful some of them poke out the ground a bit

#

the mission wont hold your hand too much, you need to figure out your own way. I recall you should have a task in your task list that tells you what you need to achieve

fringe salmon
#

this pops up every time I press play. But it also says install next to the game

uncut trellis
#

could be you have hardware malfunction there

fringe salmon
#

how do I fix it?

uncut trellis
#

Uumm if its really hardware failure you may need to buy new drive

fringe salmon
uncut trellis
#

is the disk out of space?

fringe salmon
#

shouldnt be for arma

uncut trellis
#

then there just coudl be bad sector

#

maybe run scandisk on it

fringe salmon
#

How do I do that?

#

Sorry Im bad at computers πŸ˜‚

uncut trellis
#

right click on disk, properties -> tools -> errorchecking

nimble owl
#

Hello all my arma mods are updating anyone knows how to fix it?

fringe salmon
#

No errors found

uncut trellis
#

then could be something else accessed the files and it was locked

#

could be that you just need to restart steam and try again

pine kite
# fringe salmon

See if you can locate the file. Try to rename it when Steam and Arma is not running ( a little less final than removing it outright). Then verify the Arma 3 install from within the properties of the Arma 3 game in your library, local files tab or something.

#

I'll have to buy a new drive and see if that works

pine kite
#

Well, temperature out of the fan increases. If the fan rpm is modulated based on load it should increase. But maybe it is already at max RPM and the game just pushes it over the edge.

uncut trellis
#

or heat spike is too fast.

#

is it a desktop or laptop?

south prism
#

Maybe... It's just at specific areas of the campaign freeze it out

#

Laptop

pine kite
#

Yeah, might have a clogg of dust velt blocking the heatsink. Open the radial fan casing and see if it needs cleaning.

south prism
#

That would be nice if I knew how to open it

#

Smh, I'll figure it out eventually

pine kite
#

Or use apps that can show internal temperatures of the CPU and GPU and compare a baseline to when you run the game at these particular momments.

uncut trellis
#

laptops are a bit problematic with such maintenance

#

do you use usb headset?

south prism
#

It doesn't look dusty too me

#

Yeah I do

#

I believe

uncut trellis
#

try without it too

fringe salmon
pine kite
uncut trellis
#

some usb headset drivers have problem with windows 10 and Arma and cause issues

south prism
#

I use LS15P headset

#

This is gonna suck if it's my headset causing the issue...

pine kite
fringe salmon
#

ah okay, and rename it to literally anything?

pine kite
#

I usually add .bkup at the end of it. As long as it gets a different name and cannot be found afterwards.

#

But easily restored by renaming if it wasn't the cause.

south prism
#

Imma have to figure out another way.

fringe salmon
#

I found it

south prism
#

Welp... It's the headset... Just my lucknotlikethis

pine kite
#

It's a common Steam issue, there should be a thread about it somewhere in the Steam discusisons on a likely fix. I just don't know the link. Google will probably find it.

nimble owl
#

Ok thanks i will look it up if i find something that works i'm gonna post it here

south prism
#

So is there anyway to fix that USB headset issue or am I stuck with this?

finite pollen
#

check if there are any updated drivers for your headset.

pearl sorrel
# nimble owl Ok thanks i will look it up if i find something that works i'm gonna post it her...

If you or your computer screwed up, and steam is now re-downloading the plethora of mods you had installed, then this discussion is for you! NOTE IF YOU HAVE COMPLETELY DELETED THE MODS FROM THE COMPUTER THIS WILL NOT HELP YOU Backup the file(s) we work with before editing, you have been warned A little more detail on the problem we'll be deal...

nimble owl

Yep worked

hey guys, i am having an issue with saving a game now that I do not have ACE installed anymore. It says some of my custom mods require ace g forces however i removed all the custom mods from my addon folder and it is still giving me the same error message while trying to save. how can i play and save without ace?

pine kite
pearl sorrel
rocky wasp
#

thanks for the reply, the mission is actually the Dynamic Recon Ops mod from the workshop, also when I the game is loading and initializing addons it also says the ace g force thing

pearl sorrel
rocky wasp
#

the weird thing is is it is saying one of my custom faction mods needs ace g forces in particular, however I removed the custom faction mod from the addon folderand it still is saying the custom faction needs ace g forces. it is actually doing the same error if I remove Iron Front Mod as well, except it says requires "IFA etc"

#

i just dont get why after removing the addons it still says I need ace to make those addons work

snow kettle
#

I keep getting "Ace_Compat_RH_ACC Error, any way to fix it?

uncut trellis
#

you can post the picture here

snow kettle
uncut trellis
#

you are missing RH_acc addon

snow kettle
#

Where would I find the addon?

uncut trellis
#

my question is, why are you running ace compatibility addon for an addon you dont have

snow kettle
#

Uh, I just started playin a few weeks ago.. Then I got ACE for the medical, and then after that I was getting this Error

uncut trellis
#

you have got some other mods too then that you dont need

snow kettle
#

In ACE ?

uncut trellis
#

I dont think ACE contains ACE compat mods on its own

#

are you trying to join a server or just run singleplayer?

snow kettle
#

I mostly run SP because of Zeus

uncut trellis
#

alright, then you can just turn off that ace_compat_rh_acc

snow kettle
#

Okay, thanks again !

#

I got it again...

uncut trellis
#

same message?

snow kettle
#

Yup

#

I removed the mod, and reset my game

uncut trellis
#

odd

#

perhaps its included in some other mod too then

snow kettle
#

Do I need these?

uncut trellis
#

RH compats probably not

#

the others blobdoggoshruggoogly

#

nice to someone name their mod as ACE compatibility

#

and leave out with what

snow kettle
#

I'll remove them

#

How about ACE Compatibility Addons?

uncut trellis
#

depends if you run something that they make ace compatible with

#

like I said the mod name is bad

snow kettle
#

I have Weapons and Terrains

uncut trellis
#

as it does not tell what the compatibility it is

#

you should be able to just run game with it to try if something needs it

snow kettle
#

Okay

uncut trellis
#

or check that mods workshop page for information what it is for

#

how have you subscribed to so many mods you dont know what they are for?

snow kettle
#

I look at YouTube videos and they say "MODS YOU NEED FOR ARMA3"

uncut trellis
#

ah

#

dont believe everything on youtube

snow kettle
#

Yeah, I been just following that.

#

I have a ton of mods, that I have no clue what they do..

uncut trellis
#

thats not good

snow kettle
#

RIP

#

do I need these>

uncut trellis
#

possibly if you have RHS

snow kettle
#

I do

uncut trellis
#

honestly though Im not sure if ACE medical is much use for you in single player

#

unless you like other features of it too

snow kettle
#

I use it for Single Play, but I cant save anyones life.. They just lay on the floor..

uncut trellis
#

yeh exactly.

#

do you use it just because the video said so?

snow kettle
#

Yup.

uncut trellis
#

Id say you would have far better experience without it at this point

#

it make things a lot more complicated

#

and unless you really want that, then its of no use

snow kettle
#

Yeah, im gettin rid of mods I dont know about

#

Do I need ALIVE ?

#

YESSS, I WORKED πŸ˜„

#

Thank you so MUCHH

Anyone know the fix for see through trees? my graphics settings are maxed for terrain detail in both standard arma and CH viewdistance.

pine kite
#

Search for recent messages about AMD. I don't remember the acronym for the issue, but there was a workaround. Or downgrade driver version I think.

uncut trellis
#

disbale ATOC or refresh/revert GPU drivers

frozen needle
#

Disabling ATOC worked! Thank you!

uncut trellis
#

making sure your gpu drivers are ok is also a good idea

trim ridge
uncut trellis
#

perhaps corrupted game file

trim ridge
#

soo what should i do?

uncut trellis
#

try verifying your game files on steam

trim ridge
#

how can i do that?

uncut trellis
#

verify game files steam <- put this in google

btw my gpu and cpu is amd ryzen 4650g and 16 gb i think i am able to play it at less 30 frame right?

Hello all is there any way to get the old arma 3 editor back iv taken a break for modding for a few years since make arma not war and now iv come back there is this horrible new editor. ( can i change it back or is there indepth guides to the new one )

steady hawk
#

IIRC there is a hidden command to do that which I don't even remember, but I don't understand why you say Eden Editor is horrible

north coral
#

i prefer what i am used to i dont like change

#

i made of 600 mods on the old system it was fine the way it was

steady hawk
#

The 2D-Editor is now permanently replaced by Eden Editor (3D-Editor), but can still be invoked from the editor map selection screen with Ctrl + O shortcut for legacy purposes!
BIKI says so. I didn't tested yet

north coral
#

ty i will have a look in the morning

lucid crater
void cedar
#

i have reshade, but all of my effects were disabled for this test

steady hawk
#

This does seem like a big refract effect

#

Which means it can be occurred by a script from the mission or a Mod, IDK which it does. Make sure it doesn't happened in an empty mission, if my guess is right

void cedar
#

yeah i'm thinking it's my reshade detecting something and trying to do an effect

#

or it's one of the suppression mods doing a weird thing

My Arma decides to not to launch and just stays on loading profile options, and when I hover over the app it says "Not Responding"

naive belfry
#

Ok, usually I don't search for answers on Discord, but I'm desperate . I play my games on dualscreen setup. I want Arma 3 to run on a secondary screen and not the primary, but there is no option to change it. I tried to change it through cfg file, like others suggested, but changing it makes BattleEye kicking me out and not even letting me run the game. Please, help. In other conditions I might just give up on Arma, since it's my first contact with the series and so far it's not great. I play the game on fullscreen windowed mode.

wise barn
#

One way to do this is, to have it windowed to a smaller resolution than your screen, drag the game window to your second screen, and then change to full-screen windowed mode.

naive belfry
#

Ok, will try this one out.

Ok, I found a "temporary workaround" for my issue, but still, not having an ability to freely choose on which display I want to play simply sucks.

anyone know how to fix this, i have put the people down and teamed them, not sure what the problem is
