[burnt sky]

I have VSM Ace compatibility and VSM All-in-One-Collection

Loaded

[true stone]

get him to send you his full modlist as a HTMl

[burnt sky]

Yeah that's how I loaded everything.

[true stone]

okay, one of your mods are probably corrupted, sounds like VSM AiO

repair that in your arma launcher

[burnt sky]

How do I do that?

[burnt sky]

When I press Join from launcher It just takes me to the menu fo Arma

Then error occures when I press Join

[true stone]

under the mods tab in your launcher

[burnt sky]

Mods are up to date it says.

[true stone]

Hit that button

[burnt sky]

Alright

ok i did for both

should i try now?

[true stone]

yeah

[burnt sky]

bet

OK I think I know why

It's some Blackava Mask thing

VSM.Blackava_Black

[wanton perch]

how do i fix this

[golden nova]

through repairing.

Did you load any mods, messed with parameters? More details you give, better answers you'll get.

[wanton perch]

in parameters i only god skip logos at startup

[golden nova]

mods?

[wanton perch]

none

[uncut trellis]

there is a wiki page about these errors, perhaps you can find what needs to be done there

[wanton perch]

ok

[pine kite]

DXGI suggests something is messed up with Graphics drivers or DirectX.

Hey, I've run into a bit of a snag when I'm making a mission. I'm making a mission based around a Takistani cold war civil war thing and the idea is that the players will be playing as international units, so, the AI that are at the base are to have European faces and such. Now to get around this I've placed down a unit, copied the loadout, grabbed another unit with the face and voice I want then pasted the loadout onto them, it normally works with no problems. However when I start up the mission to make sure everything is working in zeus, testing out some stuff, it goes back to their original loadouts, minus the weapons. I'm not sure if this is caused due to a mod conflict or something else entirely, has anyone else come across this bug and if so do they have a fix for this? Thank you.

[crimson patrol]

Hello guys one question its been years since i installed Arma 2 and Operation Arrowhead, just did it tried to do a server list browse and is empty nothing shows up do i need to download some patch or do something else? thanks in advance.

[wise barn]

@crimson patrol
arma 2 used to use GameSpy service for servers which got shut down some years ago. i'm not sure if BI switched to a steam solution, but if not you will very likely be out of luck finding servers without direct connecting via IP

[crimson patrol]

Oh i see i just wanted to play some MCC the old sandbox mode with a friend iirc Arma 3 doesnt has one or something.

[wise barn]

there is MCC for arma 3. even the vanilla game has something comparable called "zeus"

[crimson patrol]

oh with the dynamic missions and stuff?

[wise barn]

there are other mods that support dynamic missions, like "ALiVE"

[crimson patrol]

interesting I'm going to take a look right now and thanks

[timber venture]

hey i just got a server cant load any custom scenarios, it says i need to have a description.ext even though i got a couple of arma servers from this company before and had no problem with it

[steady hawk]

Not 100% sure what these settings are, but both of port forwarding and UPnP are not working well to host a game (not Dedicated), it doesn't show up on the server browser. What it could be and what should I show you to solve?

[marsh python]

Hello i need help please because i have texture problem in game

[uncut trellis]

@marsh python whats the problem?

[marsh python]

Problem of detail, it shows a lot at the level of the road

[uncut trellis]

its normal. your hardware probably is maxed out

[marsh python]

The game is really not pretty whereas before it was nice to play

The game is f$ull ultra

[uncut trellis]

do you have mods?

[marsh python]

No

[uncut trellis]

or anything else running?

whats your view distances?

[marsh python]

1200

my config is I7-7700k, 16gb ram 3600mhz and gtx 1070

The problem does not come from my configuration

[uncut trellis]

why not?

[marsh python]

Because when I was playing before I didn't have this problem and it was nice to play

[uncut trellis]

when was before?

what have you changed since that?

[marsh python]

I have had the game since 2017 and this problem has persisted for several months so I can't really play the games anymore because the quality on the go is horrible

[uncut trellis]

then it definitly could be problem with your hardware

or drivers

have you cleaned up your computer fans? have you updated your drivers?

[marsh python]

All my drivers are up to date and my pc is like new

[golden nova]

you sure you're playing in right resolution?

[marsh python]

yes my resolution is 1920x1080

[golden nova]

and you're sure your settings are maxed out, including anti aliasing, ambient occlusion and all of that?

if you have geforce experience you could uncheck the optimization feature for Arma, maybe it's doing weird things to your game

[marsh python]

I looked but the problem does not come from geforce experience either

@fringe salmon what server are you trying to join? do you have mods loaded? does the server use mods? are your mods and servers mods matching?

[fringe salmon]

Im playing on vanilla pub zeus servers and I have no mods loaded whatsoever.

As a matter of fact, I have no mods at all.

[uncut trellis]

can you join any other official server?

have you tried verifying your game install on steam

[fringe salmon]

not sure but I will try that

[fringe salmon]

A friend of mine is having issues where he will repeatedly crash when he is connected to my player hosted MP session

The modlist doesnt seem to change that but I will post it regardless

Im not sure what I should upload for a log file but if someone could point me where to find that I will grab it the next time he crashes

As for whats happening when he crashes it has varried from Hes in the arsenal to when hes walking around playing the game

!rpt

[rustic eagle]

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.

[pine kite]

@glacial fiber ^ It helps if you can explain exactly what happened just prior to his crash. You'll have to correlate the time-date of the RPT filename with the session when the crash happened and what was done that caused it.

I've had this problem where whenever I'm in a vehicle, there's this weird graphical glitch that causes some sort of z fighting to occur on all the objects. It's especially apparent on the bandana

I'm getting tired of Arma turning into a horror game whenever I hop into a helicopter with a guy with a bandana on

https://streamable.com/ob5k6p

Here's another example

pay attention to the door gunner and eye sockets of the character

[golden nova]

unfortunately it's not fixable (for us, players), this is how Arma renders units inside the vehicles. Might be some issue with either the vehicle config or equipment, but I've never seen a vehicle that it doesn't happen inside of it

[rustic wolf]

I don’t get this

Tried to load a campaign mission after not playing arma for a year

and this pops up

[humble wagon]

@rustic wolf many updates have passed by since you have not played for a year, so old saves won't work as they are based on the very old versions of the game.

[rustic wolf]

so how can i play it

[humble wagon]

@rustic wolf restart the campaign/mission, and not press continue as that will give this error.

[rustic wolf]

FPS Stutter - Hi collective brains. I am begging for help. I have a regular frame stutter when playing Arma. Every 2 - 3 seconds my FPS drops. causing a micro stutter. It is driving me insane. I have tried a total reinstall. Got rid of the issue for 5 mins then it was back. Tried with and without mods.

My system is more than capable. 16GB RAM, 2080TI GEforce RTX, Ryzen 9, Arma is on its own SSD 2TB.

I have changed parameters and settings. I dont get this FPS with anything else.

https://youtu.be/3wOEd5ksq5Q

nvm its Arma being idiotic

[steady hawk]

Steam says Server is not responding. on my UPnP'd host, even though UPnP is enabled/worked properly it seems, so nobody can see/connect to my game. What it could be, and what should I show you to solve?

[fringe salmon]

Polpox? damn i love your artowrk support mod

[pine kite]

Is the UPnP service in Windows running? It is in my computer, by default I guess. Even though I am not running Arma 3 or any server instance of that at this moment.

[steady hawk]

I can confirm that UPnP NAT whatever lists 2302, 2303, 2304, 2306 on my router settings. Also surely my router is on my Networks on Explorer. So it is running I suppose

[rocky wave]

I'm getting an error reading Include file d3s_cars_core_18\macros.hpp not found. and ArmA 3 won't start. This has only started happening after I subscribed to a few mods, could someone look at my troubleshooting report and tell me which mod(s) are causing the issue?

[pine kite]

Maybe trace back the steps in which mods you subscribed to. That should be easier than others making a guess.

Steam can show all workshop items you subscribed to in your profile. And then sort them by date.

[tall tartan]

mhm

[pine kite]

One thing is for sure, the paths to the mods it loads is broken according to the RPT files in that zip file

[wintry topaz]

if a friend joins then get disconnected immediately from a co-op server why is this?

mod mismatch?

[radiant rampart]

Yes

[wintry topaz]

do we have to have every mod the same or just the main ones?

because ive played before with him with small mods like improved thermals and it worked fine

but with something like RHSUSAF it doesnt work

[radiant rampart]

Depends if the mod is client side or server side. Some mods are server side meaning they need to be on the server and the client will need them also. Others a client may just run like thermals. RHSUSAF is server side.

Simple way to think about it is if it adds something to the game that everyone needs to see or interact with then it is server side. RHS adds vehicles. So if you don’t all have it then you can see a tank and the other guy can’t. Or you have a gun and shoot him despite it being invisible to him. Also his client would not recognise the bullet etc….

[fossil vale]

hey so I'm having a weird issue where screenshots I try to take using the debug console won't save. I've been trying to use the exportEditorPreviews function for a mod and it would go through the process until I'd look in my screenshots folder and nothing was there except the subfolder for the mod itself. I tried just taking a normal screenshot too using the screenshot ""; command and that didn't save anything either. The only thing I've done other than run those commands so far is increase the size of the screenshot folder by putting maxScreenShotFolderSizeMB = 2000; into my .arma3profile file. I also really quickly just tried upping the size of the folder to 5000 and running the game as admin and neither of those seemed to help

I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything obvious

how do i set a unit with infinite stamina ?

[regal laurel]

I am truly at my wits end here.. not sure if this is the right place for this but I have spent hours trying to fix this.
Here is my situation:
Recently installed a cool looking scenario called Direct Action by BillyEatsWorld
When trying to play this on any version, I was running into a "bad_module_info" crash error
Attempting to fix this I did a number of things including setting the game to 32-bit, changing the memory allocator, and setting all of the .exe files to run without the fullscreen optimization enabled
I'm unsure as to whether or not this issue has been fixed, however, now I have the issue where my game crashes after I do particular things in game with the crash error of 0xC0000005 - STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION and have done all of the following steps to no avail:

can someone here help me with this issue

[regal laurel]

Crashed playing Old Man too

Just uninstalled all of my mods and removed all of my scenarios

Currently cant even play the game for more than 10 mins

I've verified files, reinstalled, done everything pretty much

Are you by any chance on the Legacy arma 3 branch?

Your arma is version 2.00

Current Arma version is 2.04

[flint radish]

Legal one but actuall really slow connection... the last update i cant download on steam... nvm i am actuall move to new apartment then i have better connection

Ah Legacy... i mistake.. yes it a old version

[patent kettle]

You should let steam update your game then.

[flint radish]

I try to play ravage now and if work i update after the movement... thx anyway 🙂

[patent kettle]

you have CBA errors in the RPT, it will not work, at least not fully.

I think this version of CBA should work with Arma 2.00...
https://github.com/CBATeam/CBA_A3/releases/tag/v3.15.1.201119

but you really should let it update when you will be able to.

[flint radish]

i try it ^^ but if it not work well i need to wait then... then i switch to fallout instead

thx for that version i try it... a good alternative until movemant...

Thank you Veteran you my man... that version works well... until i can update i use this

So I am completely and utterly stumped. as of now I've reinstalled the game from scratch, gone into windows sharing settings for the documents folder and shared it with myself in hopes I just don't have full access to it, taken the whole documents folder off of read only, gone into the security settings of the folder and tried giving myself access through that, made sure that controlled folder access was turned off, not just for the documents folder, but in general, and none of that is allowing me to take screenshots from the debug console either

maybe because it's one of the most generic error message possible in windows.

[steady hawk]

Depends on what it is. It isn't a vanilla feature

Even if we know what it is, I don't know how though

[near hollow]

hmm when i rename my presets in the launcher they are reverted on the next launcher start up..
common issue?

i.e. if i delete a preset it comes back lol

[near hollow]

No idea what that is from so couldn't tell you.

[fringe salmon]

Not sure where to ask this, but I run a dedicated server on a box for arma 3, i got a mission file sorted with all the mods etc... now i launch the mission file in game, i choose a slot to load into, i download the map and when it starts to load me in it just kicks me to the mission selection screen

[near hollow]

Look at your servers RPT

It will be inside the arma 3 folder in the servers files

[fringe salmon]

yeah i did and im not sure what error to even begin searching for

[pine kite]

You can upload the file somewhere (maybe even here if it is not too big) and let others have a look. Maybe the cause is hidden in the RPT file your game client makes, should be hidden in an Arma 3 folder in your userprofile (invisible) Appdata folder.

[fringe salmon]

https://paste.ofcode.org/8884D2fCVeSdjHHi5wA3Sz

that's the rpt file for the server from the mission selection until i got booted back out into mission selection again

12:17:41 Warning: Steam Query data overflow, Mods/Signatures will not be correctly received by clients. Remove unused mods or change your server configuration to allow for more data to be sent.

That's the line thats concerning me out of all of them

1 think i did too was change the name of the pbo of the mission file, but that was done prior before it being put on the box.

that shouldnt cause an issue cus i've done it before but just saying

[pine kite]

That is not the entire file! That's just a snippet. Since you don't know what to look for, there's no point in you choosing the part you think might be it. Upload the entire file somwhere. Like pastebin.org or somewhere.

[fringe salmon]

well i tried a few times

do you want the whole thing?

[pine kite]

updated earlier message.

[fringe salmon]

https://paste.ofcode.org/fZsLgnDevTrCsqaFWH2PmN

that's the entire file

[pine kite]

Well, it's the start of it anyway. Not sure the end of it is part of it. Can you verify with a text editor like Notepad++ (handles large files better than basic Windows Notepad)

[fringe salmon]

that's the whole rpt file in there

start and end of file matches up correctly

wait i think i found the issue, will update in 5 mieks

mikes*

still working on it ^

[pine kite]

Maybe that is the entire file, but it does seem to be truncated though. Seems like the server crashed and didn't have time to finish the RPT file with it's shutdown.

Get your dedicated server working and verified with no mods first. Then slowly add up mods that are known and tested by yourself to be working. Don't add them all in a bunch at the same time.

And start with known good missions.

[fringe salmon]

I think what the problem is, that in the server config file, i removed a line which kept forcing an old mission to be loaded all the time, because everything worked well previously, i presumed it was mod related though as we updated one of our mods and its local on the box so i didnt update the pbos on it

[pine kite]

Well, it talks of various mods where it is missing a semicolon or misplaced curly bracket. Might still be badly written mods you are using. From what I understand by those that are privy to Arma 3 SQF-code that can mess up compiling badly.

[mossy robin]

anyone can help me with the Status_acces_violation error?i removed my mods and it still crashes

[pine kite]

Then there is something wrong with the install of Arma 3, or your operating system.

Or hardware

Part of the error message is suggestion on posting it on the feedback tracker if I remember correctly. When you supply the needed information they may be able to tell more about the cause.

[shut socket]

hey guys does anyone know how i can permanently set view distance in my server?

I've got a view distance line in the basic cfg but it doesn't seem to do anything

we're having to use admin commands to set it which would be fine if it didn't revert back to the default view distance every so often

[wet nimbus]

nevermind i just figured out that the mission we're using is adjusting it.

[pine kite]

viewdistance is part of the server profile

not basic.cfg

Hi Guys, I hoping you guys can help or at least know someone that can i was running Arma 3 as part of a starsim unit on my now old pc. Few frame issues graphics not brilliant etc but it ran, occasionally would lag so much it would crash or a few alt tabs in and out would just give me black screen and force a end task command through task manager. Now i have a new PC, (i can provide the full specs) but i9 11th gen, 3090, 32gb of RAM etc and since getting into arma with our mod list, game looks beautiful everything is smooth and no issues what so ever.. until it hits a random freeze and the game just crashes out. If any one can help please send me a DM as this is driving me insane not being able to use my new PC properly! Cheers

[still ridge]

Single monitor. 1920x1080 native resolution. I would like to run arma in fullscreen windowed mode and in 1680x1050 but it wont allow me. Is there any way to achieve this besides going fullscreen?

[uncut trellis]

fullscreen window can not change its resolution

since its tied to the screen resolution

you can reduce sampling though

or do you mena like you would like black borders around your screen?

[still ridge]

preferably no black borders

[uncut trellis]

well you could not do that either

but Im just trying to understand why

[still ridge]

1920 hurts my eyes so i would like to be able to play at 1680 which i know works great for me. I could do it in fullscreen but alt tabbin is a pain so i was wondering if there is a workaround

[uncut trellis]

reduce sampling could make same effect

[still ridge]

I ll try lowering the sampling and changing desktop resolution

[uncut trellis]

desktop resolution could help too yeah

[still ridge]

Thank you very much for you time HorribleGoat!

[uncut trellis]

np. good luck!

[pine kite]

Choose a 1680 resolution that has the same aspect ratio as 1920x whatever you have. The GPU should scale it. But if might be less crisp.

The resolution list shows the aspect ratio at the end.

1600x900 should fit

anyone know why or how my arma 3 servers I host don't show up in my friends browsers? I have set up port forwarding over a year ago which is still perfectly working, my firewall is not blocking anything. It was working perfectly fine as of two days ago

[olive depot]

hello? anyone?

[steady hawk]

Still can't host my server looks like. I made sure 2302-2306 in UDP are open.

you need to make sure first that your WAN address / external IP uses the IPv4 protocol!
Confirmed.
you need to manually open / forward the ports 2302-2306 UDP
Also confirmed.

What it could be? What am I missing?

[olive depot]

ah

[uncut trellis]

@steady hawk do you have the steam ports open too?

[patent kettle]

You do not need these.

Are you sure you're not behind ISP NAT?

[calm ledge]

Everytime i load up arma3, It gives me a black screen then i just have to restart my pc.

[wise barn]

go to ..\documents\arma 3 or ..\documents\arma 3 other profiles
backup all files that end on *.Arma3Profile
delete all files that end on *.Arma3Profile
restart the game

report what happens

[steady hawk]

Is this what I can confirm with tracert command? Two local IPs or not thingie?

[patent kettle]

you can't IIRC. You should check with your ISP.

Hm, you should be able to check via comparing your pubic IP and your WAN IP

Do you have an access to your router?

[steady hawk]

Yes

[patent kettle]

If so check the WAN IP

and compare it with the IP you get https://www.whatismyip.com/

If they're different you're behind ISP NAT

[steady hawk]

The same it seems, if what I see is what you say

[patent kettle]

Then IDK, try temporarily disabling your windows firewall to confirm it's not causing the issues.

[steady hawk]

I have completely no idea then

[olive depot]

its fucking stupid aye, out of nowhere one day it just doesn't work, arma is notorious for this issue

[calm ledge]

Never backed up in my life, How do i backup?

[uncut trellis]

copy and paste

[steady hawk]

By copy & paste or rename or... whatever

[wise barn]

mark files
right click "copy"
at a save location outside the documents folder
"paste"

[calm ledge]

Thank you

[patent kettle]

I'm 99% certain it's not arma, properly open ports just work. If it does not then something blocks the connection.

[calm ledge]

It gives me a crash report

I found the issue

Its because i created a profile with my one drive on

and my one drive is broke rn

and before the game was going good i trying changing onto the profile i created on my one drive

then it crashed my game, so basically i need to turn my one drive on

but my one drive wont turn on

soooo

i find a way to turn it on

thanks for the help btw

[fringe salmon]

im having trouble with my pbo files

it doestn show up when i try to publish my mod

see nothing

[restive sequoia]

put the pbo's inside a folder called "addons" and then add the folder to publisher

[fringe salmon]

alr

[barren lagoon]

Sorry, I don't know how to take screenshots on PC haha

This happens every time I try to join a server. I let Steam verify the game files again and it still happens.

[restive sequoia]

You join a modded server, you need to load the mods the server uses to be able to join

[fringe salmon]

still doestn work

[restive sequoia]

Use the Arma 3 - Launchers Serverbrowser

[fringe salmon]

i put the pbo files inside the addons folder

[barren lagoon]

Well I tried that but the error still occurs

[fringe salmon]

heres proof that i did indeed put it there

heres proof

[restive sequoia]

sorry it's been a while, add the folder "above" the addons folder

[fringe salmon]

alright

[restive sequoia]

Then your mod is corrupted. Go to Arma 3 Lauchers mod section and repair/delete/re-download the ExileMod

[barren lagoon]

Oh I see. Thanks

[grim tinsel]

For the love of god don't put stuff in there

[restive sequoia]

I didn't even check the screens.

[fringe salmon]

Then where

i dont even know or have any idea how to fix this

[restive sequoia]

C:\Workspace\@MyMod\addons

wherever but not into Arma 3 client files itself

[barren lagoon]

Now I get this error

[restive sequoia]

Next mod not found, whatever you do, you do it wrong 😛

[fringe salmon]

alr

[barren lagoon]

But I did reinstall the available mods.

[fringe salmon]

alr i made the folder

what now

[restive sequoia]

The error message says otherwise

Go to Arma 3 Launcher - Go to mods (Click unload all)

Then go to serverbrowser, search for the server and click on join

https://gyazo.com/0317516aae9c1bb6b727fff89862b8f6

it shows the required mods and two buttons at the buttom

click the yellow one

it will download all needed mods (if the server is setup properly)

[fringe salmon]

still doestn work

[fringe salmon]

[trail sparrow]

i am having some texture issues

These are what my tress look like

ive reinstalled the game, verifyied integrity

still the same thing

you cannot play MP games with contact enabled

because you have contact enabled

go to DLCs in the launcher and uncheck contact

uncheck all your DLCs

[brave hawk]

try using this

can you send an rpt please?

[rustic eagle]

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.

[fringe salmon]

i still dont understand why doesnt it show the pbo files

[barren lagoon]

Thanks. I selected "Upload available mods". I didnt see the mods required for the server haha (Retard moment). Thanks a lot!

[fringe salmon]

i did it i made the new folder right before addons folder

You wouldn't believe how many threads on the Steam discussion I've answered with just "Try disabling ATOC" in the past week 😄

[fringe salmon]

i have some problems

i made a lil scenario in singleplayer, and i click play scenario

and it doesnt work

[wise barn]

ok?

how about a little more than just "it doesnt work"?

[pine kite]

Nope! @fringe salmon Addon folder is not meant for mods. It's part of the base game. Adding mods in there can mess up your game.

[restive sequoia]

already told him, was not checking his screenshots. because who would have this idea 😄

I don't even know what you are trying to do exactly. But if you are making mods they need to go in their own folder. Go to the channels under Creative Editing that fit your kind of mod for more help.

when I right click a character in eden, it only gives me a "Go Here" option but no "Play as Character"

i've already set the character to "Playable" and even "Player" to no avail

[quaint jewel]

if you set it to player, you can just start preview and you'll be in that character

also you can do 'play as character' if you're previewing via mp @rocky wave

[uncut trellis]

is it a modded character?

[hexed mist]

Does anyone know of a way to disable ATOC server side for players, due to the AMD driver bugs right now? This has been somewhat of an issue on my server.

[uncut trellis]

dont think that is possible

[wise barn]

not possible

must be done manually on the client PC

[hexed mist]

I've seen other servers force video settings before. If they can do it I can. I can use a mod to do it.

I'm running own modded server and can add anything I want into the mod. Just was looking for suggestions server side if there are any first.

[wise barn]

those params can not be remotly controlled. only the view distance can be by mission settings

[thick ginkgo]

is there any reason as to why the ACE interact create zeus function gets disabled, I am logged in as admin on my dedicated

Does anyone know how to fix this error?

No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgPatches.r3f_armes_c'.

Install R3F? IDK what Mod tho

[sudden tundra]

I'm not too sure either, this is all the error says

I found a lot more

[steady hawk]

IDK what server you're trying to join but make sure you have required Mods

[sudden tundra]

This is on my own dedicated, it's not letting players join

[steady hawk]

Then make sure there is no broken Mod

Or the player who tries to join have every required Mods

[fringe salmon]

Is there anyone available that can do my port forwarding via my router for me?

I know what I need to do but I have no clue how to actually do it on my router.

I'd really appreciate the help.

To clarify - I am not looking for instructions on how to do port forwarding. I'm asking if somebody would be kind enough as to take physical control of my computer via TeamViewer or hop into a discord call with me and physically tell me where I need to go. I've followed the steps on the website but I have no clue where to go in my router.

Thank you again in advance!

Just another thing to add to this - I'm confused because my router uses Port Triggering and not Port Forwarding

[compact yoke]

Two different things, there should be another section that has Port Forwarding somewhere else on your router

It can be in some wacky places

[fringe salmon]

There isn't a second section. Only Port Triggering

[compact yoke]

You're confident that you have explored every section of your router's settings

[fringe salmon]

There's a search option for me to search for what settings I want in my router, upon entering "Port" into the search, I only get Port Triggering

[compact yoke]

That's wack

[fringe salmon]

It's under NAT Forwarding as an entire damn categorized section that lists (in this order)

ALG

Virtual Severs

Port Triggering

DMZ

UPnP

[compact yoke]

Haven't messed with port triggering before, so I am definitely not going to try to break your shit today. I'm sure someone here knows how to use it.

[fringe salmon]

Thanks for the help, anyway

I'm trying to get an arma 3 server set up and... Well without ports... Might be a little useless lmfao

I'm gonna set up the server anyway and I might get lucky and not have to forward the ports because this isn't my ISP's router, it's a gaming one I bought off amazon. So it might already have the ports 'forwarded' or just allow ALL ports to be access inbound and outbound by default, so wouldn't need an option to change them with

In the meantime, I shall ask my tech frend,

We call him dobby because he's our In-House elf for tech.

[glacial ivy]

you can use an program called simple port forwarding, it will port forward for you

[fringe salmon]

Could I uh... Have a little more information on what that program does? I need to be 1000000% sure I won't break my internet. My mother works from home 😅

[glacial ivy]

you will give it your routers accsess ip (exmp : 192.168.1.1), the routers username and password, then what port you want to forward (in your case 2302 -...- 2306) and then you will select the protocol (in your case UDP), and the you hit forward, and it will login to your router and forward that port

[fringe salmon]

Don't mean to be offensive or anything, just kinda eeeeee about a "Miracle 1-click program fix" for something as pedantic as arma XD

[glacial ivy]

it has a pretty clear instruction it self, just install it, it has a tutorial kind of thingy in it self

[fringe salmon]

Okay thanks that makes a ton of sense actually, it's just a program that does what I'd do, but better. And faster. And easier.

If this works my man you just practically gave me the final piece to revive my whole damn unit lmfao

[glacial ivy]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/759934644807401512.png?size=64

[fringe salmon]

Soooo my router isnt in the list lmfao

If I choose a router that isn't mine from the list, do I risk breaking it

[glacial ivy]

you wont risk breaking the router

thats just for it to know what kind of webpage is going to be opend

casue it uses webscarping

choose a similler version of the same thig

like if its TP-Link g12 , but there is TP-Link g5 and no 12, use the g5

[fringe salmon]

Gotcha. Thing is, mine is an Archer VR400

There's not a single router on there under Archer

Arma isnt even in the list of program databases lmfao I'll add my own

Yeah this is too much for my smoothbrain to process

Gonna need another way

[glacial ivy]

thats normal, just use UDP and port

[fringe salmon]

Yeah it was way too complicated for my smoothbrain 😅

[glacial ivy]

btw, your router full name is TP-LINK Archer VR400_V1 Wireless VDSL/ADSL Modem Router

search under TP-Link

[fringe salmon]

V2

I have the V2 aha

And there's no routers even remotely like it in the search, and this router uses its own Archer firmware

I know a lot about hardware, but networking, brain go brr

[glacial ivy]

i can help you if you want, but it will be thro anydesk

or thro discord stream

[fringe salmon]

I don't mind anydesk - Just halp me lmfao

I've never felt so smoothbrained in my entire life... And I'm the smartest in my family when it comes to technology

[glacial ivy]

it do be like that some times

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/739614945045643447.png?size=64

[pine kite]

Sorry, don't have the time to help you through Teamviewer or whatever. But then it is likely Virtual servers. It probably has a list of common protocols, see if you can add your own, and then set them up with UDP ports 2302-2306 to your server's IPv4 address. Show screenshots of the interface if you can't make sense of it.

[fringe salmon]

Don’t worry - David helped me out. Problem is resolved now

[thick stirrup]

wow what is up with my arma
every time I open server browser it crashes

[quaint jewel]

posted crash report on feedback tracker yet?

[thick stirrup]

wouldn't know where to start lol

[grim tinsel]

https://feedback.bistudio.com/w/ft_a3_howto/gamecrash/

[thick stirrup]

thing is it doesn't crash properly
It just freezes

so I get no report

[quaint jewel]

Why u say crash when its not a crash

[thick stirrup]

I mean it 'crashes' but IDK how to explain

[quaint jewel]

yeah freeze is freeze. Crash is plop gone to desktop

freeze I can't really analyze... easily

[wise barn]

@thick stirrup
make sure you have the game running in fullscreen windowed mode. some error messages hide "behind" the game and disappear once the game is force closed

[thick stirrup]

yeah it freezes and stops responding but the mouse works when I enter the server browser
it's running Fs-window rn, nothing appears

[quaint jewel]

what do you mean the mouse works?

ingame cursor won't work when its frozen

since when does it happen?

[thick stirrup]

the pointer moves, the ingame one, but the rest of it is frozen

it worked fine for my op last saturday, then I could use the editor yesterday, but IG since the GM update

[quaint jewel]

maybe it'll work again tomorrow 😄

[thick stirrup]

I just don't see why it'd semi-freeze
I'd like it working for an op later but Arma is Arma ig

[quaint jewel]

random idea, try to switch to profiling branch.
Or restart your PC

[thick stirrup]

I'll try it, thx

[uncut trellis]

or verify install on steam

[quaint jewel]

bit annoying we have automatic freeze detection that should trigger a crashdump, but it doesn't seem to be working

[thick stirrup]

restarting PC worked, don't know what but something obviously broke

[wise barn]

happens... nothing unusual
there is a reason why "have you turned it off and on again?" is a running gag when it comes down to IT

I have tried re-installing ace and it has not worked, I also have deleted ace in the server and dragged over and installed in the server the copy that is in my mod folder and it still gave the same error

[uncut trellis]

do you have some mod pack that could contain old version of ACE

[wise barn]

well... your issue is literally written in the message:

update CBA

and ACE maybe

[sudden tundra]

So you think it's CBA not ACE?

more ACE

well, check both

[sudden tundra]

Would anyone be able to help with a dedicated server issue? Some people can join the server and some can't even see or join it, even from steam friends

[fresh spoke]

Can't find the "Sound Sources" in the settings and guns and effects are just cutting out

[fresh spoke]

Anyone?

[steady hawk]

Because it is here no more

#arma3_feedback_tracker message
The story is here

[fresh spoke]

So no way to fix gun firings just being silent then when a firefight starts?

Not even a big fight either

Like 4 guys

[steady hawk]

Make sure:
Using correct device to listen
Try empty mission and shoot

[fresh spoke]

It works fine when you have one person, it's when you have like 4 and guns are going off your gun cuts out

This is vanilla, just want to point that out

[steady hawk]

Then verify the game I think

[fresh spoke]

Alright, I will try that

Will that fix an audio issue in the game?

Like, need to know the issue first right?

[steady hawk]

IDK. Maybe maybe not

[fresh spoke]

Any way to increase the sound source then, maybe mine is set to like really low or something

[steady hawk]

That's the go-to solution if a strange issue happens

As the quote above, sound sources does nothing, Dedmen says

[fresh spoke]

So there is no limit to how many sounds should be playing on this game then?
If that's the case then I do have an issue then.
I will verify, if it does not work, do I submit a bug report or something?

[steady hawk]

Maybe. Make sure it is not a mission dependent issue

[fresh spoke]

How would I find that out?

I'm playing East Wind campaign at the moment

[steady hawk]

Try empty mission and shoot

[fresh spoke]

You mean just on my own?

I did, and it works fine

No sound cuts off when I am the only one

That's not the issue I am having

Only when a few people are engaged in a firefight does my gun stop making sound

Not when I am on my own

[fresh spoke]

Did a verify of the files, still the same issue with campaign missions

[steady hawk]

Is it an USB headset?

[fresh spoke]

Wireless yes

[steady hawk]

Try 3.5 audio

[fresh spoke]

What's that

[steady hawk]

3.5mm jack

[fresh spoke]

It's wireless, it does not have a jack cable

Just a USB stick

[steady hawk]

Try another audio device I said

[fresh spoke]

I don't have another pair of headphones on hand

I don't keep spares of things like that

[steady hawk]

You can use speaker perhaps

[fresh spoke]

Computer does not have a speaker

[steady hawk]

Whatever. If it is, I guess that's the issue. Arma 3 just doesn't like USB Audio for some reason

[fresh spoke]

Any patch we can see to fix that if that is a known issue?

[steady hawk]

Known. Dedmen is searching for the solution I heard

[fresh spoke]

Ok

Well thank you for the help, I appreciate you responding to me.

I will wait for a the eventual patch.

are you using mods?

do you have all the mods the mission you try to run requires?

[rocky wave]

Whenever I play a mission from the editor I get an error [BIS_Function_activateAddons] this function can only be activated during the mission init. The mission I make in editor loads twice (shows the loading screen, puts me into the game for a second and then shows the loading screen again) and it mentions something about an object curator needing to be defined? can anyone assist?

[quaint jewel]

Sounds like you#re running some bad/buggy mods, like MCC for example?

[rocky wave]

I am running MCC, could that be the issue?

I'll try reloading my game without MCC hang on

[quaint jewel]

Yes. I have the same messages and its MCC doing it

[rocky wave]

ah alright, is it something that is fixable? or do I just need to live with it if I want to use MCC

[quaint jewel]

live with

alright, ty for the help

[agile rampart]

I can run 2x and 4x MSAA both at a pretty decent framerate, but as soon as I turn it up to 8x the fps drops dramatically, to like 5 fps

[lone lake]

ups should have posted here #general_chat_arma message

[mossy elk]

All my custom multiplayer saves are missing.
I started my game today to play and all of them were gone.
Had the same problem with a few other steam games.
Can somebody help me?

[uncut trellis]

do you have onedrive?

[mossy elk]

yes but on my school account

not the same email as steam

[uncut trellis]

then you probably dont have those account specific files shared

[mossy elk]

i can have a look

my onedrive is not enabled

so that shouldn't be it

[lone lake]

Depends if you have your savegames on the onedrive...

[mossy elk]

i don't

nvm, i got it fixed

[fringe salmon]

Yes, yes and yes. The issue seems to has fixed itself over time

[pearl frigate]

so i downloaded a scenario that required ace, went into the mission.sqm and removed all the ace addons i could find, saved and went back to play, restarted but said i still require deleted addons. help ig?

[uncut trellis]

perhaps it had some ace content in use

[pearl frigate]

it has some more of these class items

[grim tinsel]

if a scenario requires ace its best not to try to play it without ace, as ace can be very important part of scenarios

[pearl frigate]

i asked the author and he said ace isnt a necesity

so do i need to remove all those class items or what?

[uncut trellis]

the author would probably be the best person to answer that

[pearl frigate]

alright so i 've got another problem if you dont mind, i found another scenario that doesnt require ace, and neither does ace appear in its mission.sqm file, yet when i try loading it, it says it dependent on deleted content, and then proceeds to show the list of ace addons. i've subscribed to this scenario after i loaded arma without ace. thanks in advance

[zinc hedge]

hey i keep on getting this error when i try to join my server nothing unusual on the RPT Any help ASAP would be great Thanks ! :3

looks like the msg on the bottom right of screen shot cannot open error?

[hot jackal]

I seem to have encoutered a rare problem with Old Man scenario. It won't start properly. When I launch it from the Scenarios tab, the intro plays as intended. Keystone's dialogue subtitles are displayed correctly, but I can only see a black screen, in the middle of which is the white dot pointer which I should use for interactions. I am asked to press the Space bar to continue, and if I do, I find out I am in the middle of the ocean (probably at grid [000, 000]?), I do not have control and cannot do anything.
I have tried deleting all Old Man tagged .pbos and .bisigns from my game folder and have Steam verify the game cache and download it again. Nothing changed.
No mods loaded. I can play any other scenario and campaign just fine.
Any idea as to how I can fix this? I have been playing the game for years and have played Old Man prior to formatting my PC with no problems whatsoever.

[fringe salmon]

So I am trying to pack this faction Pbo, but i cant, it says in line 0 there is an asterisk, except there isnt a single asterisk in the whole damn txt file. been trying to do this all night and im getting very frusturated

Frequently answered troubleshooting

I got a CTD and an error code

You can refer a Wiki article Arma 3: Unusual process exit: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Unusual_process_exit

Steam redownloads every Arma 3 Mods

It is a Steam issue.
I can recommend this forum post: https://steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/1/135510194254064583/

“Contact the server admin” it says something with the keys?

This means Mods you've loaded is not accepted by the server.
It is recommended to use Launcher's Server Browser which allows you to adjust Mods easily.

Nobody hears me in VOIP/VON?

Usually because your Microphone is not set default in Windows.
Get to Audio Settings and change your default microphone.

The cloud file provider is not responding.

Arma 3 hates Cloud file saving. Disable OneDrive likely fixes it.

Some or all soldier animations are not working it seems, even in vanilla game

Sometimes Arma 3's animation cache can be corrupted despite the animations are no longer available because you unload the Mods that adds some animations.
You can delete the folder AnimDataCache that is located in Profile folder (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Profile) and it is safe to delete, no backup is needed.

You cannoy play/edit this mission, when I try to play a mission.

The dependency Mods are not loaded in your game.

I dont even have some of those mods installed

I get this same message with every scenario I try to play

Still no solution for this?

Tried to update mod several times yesterday. This message all the time.

[signal sonnet]

Hi, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. Yesterday I installed CUPS Terrains and after some point I was getting an infinite loading screen whenever trying to test the mission in the editor. This was not immediately after getting CUPS, but some time afterwards. Tested a bunch with and without mods and on older missions that were working, same thing.

Now I just tried testing on a mission we have on our server, with the server modset. Works perfectly. But if I download the pbo from the server and run the mission locally either in SP or hosted MP, with the same modset, then I get the infinite loading screen. I even reinstalled the game and still get the same thing.

[royal pelican]

Can someone help me with my game graphics, i've owned arma for about a month now but every time i play the game no trees, grass or anything related to terrain will render in my game and im unsure how to fix it. I have tried watching videos, re downloading the full game, playing without mods, changing launcher settings but nothing will work does anyone know if they can help me?

Hey, im trying to host a arma server but getting this error: CreateBoundSocket: ::bind couldn't find an open port between 2303 and 2303

Any idea?

[wise barn]

!localhost

[rustic eagle]

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 “whatismyip.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: “<your router model> + port forwarding”

Hey how do i fix the infinite loading screen

When i load into my friends mutliplayer game it puts me on a loading bar about 2 inches from being done and it stays there

[pearl frigate]

so i downloaded every mod i could find but i still have those things missing

what do they stand for?

[fringe salmon]

If I load into server hosting and have no slots one more time I’m gonna break something I swear

[grim tinsel]

sorry not sure

[fringe salmon]

So how come sometimes I get slots but 75% of the time theres no slots no matter what mods I load?

[proud hull]

Is this a bug? I'm on the tipping point campaign mission, and my team just lead me to a random shore, and stand there, i've waited some 10 minutes

[golden nova]

scenario bug or faulty mods

[golden nova]

if it's the campaign mission then there should be few boats on the shore west of you, reach them and scripts should trigger themselves

[proud hull]

I saw a turned over boat on the shore, but otherwise, they just stood there

[pearl frigate]

i solved the problem anyways lol thx. a fella told me to only launch arma with the required mods for that certain scenario and that seemed to work

[grim tinsel]

[golden nova]

have you tried restarting the mission? if you still encounter the issue then you can just cheat through it and end the mission https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Armed_Assault:_Cheats

tried multiple times to restart

[golden nova]

I think I had similar problem but it fixed itself after few tries, AI is just wonky

[brazen tiger]

Might it be a clonficting addon ? oO

australia uses ripped and outdated CUP mods

[brazen tiger]

ffff we wanted so much to use this map :/

cause we are looking for a really big map like 40 40 and except Deniland we don't really know any god map.
So yeah, Australia is fully broken ?

[wise barn]

is it really just 20x20?

i thought it's bigger
(THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID...!)

[brazen tiger]

so yeah i'm pretty annoyed as Australia was really the best map we could have x)

[wise barn]

i know of another pretty large terrain, i just can't remember the name. gimme some minutes to find it

you could take a look at South Asia from Take on Helicopters while i'm searching

[brazen tiger]

wtf it's wrote it's a 122 by 122 km

[wise barn]

yes

😄

you said you wanted it big ¯_(ツ)_/¯

sorry, i can't find / remember the other

[brazen tiger]

yeah no problem i'll have a look about what you said before

So techanically, if i don't use anymore CUP core i should be able to launch Australia right ? oO

[wise barn]

it will work until the point where another DMCA will take that version of australia down...

so, better not using it

So I'm planning on undervolting my gaming PC to try and reduce my carbon/energy footprint

Hey everyone, I've been on hold with Tech Support with Xfinity for about an hour now trying to get port forwarding set up. The port forwarding is set up properly, but it still won't work properly. To my knowledge, the issue is IPv4 vs IPv6. Can anyone who uses xfinity give me a hand?

[wise barn]

do you have IPv4 or IPv6?

what did your ISP tell you?

[honest sorrel]

so, after some file issues earlier, my profile file is now gone, all controls got reset, and also all my saved loadouts are gone, and now im not sure on how to get the profile file back

[snow kindle]

what does this mean?

[wise barn]

@snow kindle
that a mod that you are using is badly coded and has issues

[snow kindle]

Cfg is?

[wise barn]

nothing you can do about it

cfg stands for config

it's a class inside the mod called "class cfgWeapons"

as i said, you can do nothing about that

[snow kindle]

gotcha.

thank you

[wise barn]

np

[shell dawn]

I have both, but my ISP couldn't disable IPv6

[pine kite]

Arma 3 couldn't care less about IPv6. It's just that you need to have a public IPv4 address that is unique on the internet, as in not shared with other of their clients. But the IPv4 traffic should not be tunneled over the IPv6 traffic.

If so, ask author

Or, get rid of that weapon. Probably some of units in your mission have it

[shell dawn]

How do I get my IP address set up properly?

[snow kindle]

I don't know for sure, but I think the problem could be in that the mod is partially signed,

and that it was manually uploaded to the server instead of being uploaded from the workshop.

Is there any way to narrow down what exactly is causing this?

The author is currently offline.

[steady hawk]

bisign or something does nothing to do with your issue. I ain't a server man but just use Steam Workshop version so it's done?

[snow kindle]

That's the thing, the mod is private so it can't be found on the steam workshop.

The author would have to publicize it. But, thanks, I appreciate it.

[pine kite]

You don't have any control on what IPv4 address you get nor can you change it beyond switching ISP. Check if the sites like whatsmyip.com report a different IPv4 address than the WAN address your router reports. If it is different then you are out of luck. Change internet serviceprovider. And choose one that provides a unique IPv4 address on the internet. (And that allows port forwarding in your router)

Since the update was released for GM, I haven't been able to get steam to update the files for it. It will start/stop. In Downloads, it references a DISK_WRITE error. Please assist

[kindred skiff]

idk if this is the right place to send this, but i just had a massive fps drops while i was playing arma 3, it used to give me between 70+ fps on high settings, now on low settings, it barely gives me 20 (vanilla arma as well) anyone got a fix for that stuff?

[uncut trellis]

dont play on low settings

low settings dont use gpu

[kindred skiff]

ive tried using higher settings but it ultimately made my fps even lower than before, but i dont know if the reason for this is that arma 3 was optimized properly and the game did not close properly and caused this problem

[fringe salmon]

Driver possibly? Background programs? Arma being arma perhaps?

[uncut trellis]

do you have mods?

and also what DAC said

[kindred skiff]

driver is updated to the newest one, have checked all background programs (plus it was running smoother with more fps when i literally had 10 tabs open and downloading mods than having nothing opened) and nothing was on it, i thought about the arma Engine probably causing this due to scripts and such but why wouldnt it cause it before when everything was good

[kindred skiff]

i do have mods, removed them all to try, problem still persisted, put everything on the lowest of the lowest graphics and i was still maxing out at 27 fps (with audio as well at extremely low)

[uncut trellis]

Could still be driver or hardware issue I suppose.

[kindred skiff]

no way its a hardware issue, i literally just bought this laptop factory new yesterday

[uncut trellis]

maybe some driver/control software enhancement got turned on that eats all frames

[kindred skiff]

ill check the drivers, it could possibly be that tbh, i have had the same problem on my high end PC, but the problem went away by itself

okay so apparently, the newest driver update got reverted on its own somehow, im downloading it again rn, ill check back

Hello everyone. I need some help with a problem I have. I made a mission with and I added a lot of holdActions in there. The way I crate them is the following:

In initServer.sqf I call an execVM to execute a script. In this script I use remoreExec(Call) to create the holdAction to the appropriate players. In Local host everything works really fine! In a dedicated server environment, only the holdActions that are "remoteExec(Call)"-ed on a numbered id (like -2 for everyone except the server) work. On the other holdActions I use the line: allPlayers select {side _x isEqualTo _side} (where _side, is the side that I want to have the holdAction and is passed as an argument to the script).

On the RPT, I get a line that says "trying to remoteExec(Call) the "bis_fnc_holdActionAdd" to 0 objects, maximum 1000"... I understand that because, when the initServer.sqf runs, no players exist in-game. My problem though is that I have set the "JIP" for the remoteExec(Call) to *true which (if understand it correctly) will put the whole call of the function to JIP Que so when someone joins and is a player of the appropriate side, it will be executed.

Have I understood something wrong?

Can someone provide some help with this?

Thanks in advance!
