Can anyone help me on singleplayer campaign I get around 30-40fps but in multiplayer I get 7-13 fps.
My specs are supposed to be slightly better than the recommended arma 3 specs, but here they are anyway.
Intel 6th gen i7 CPU
Nvidia 965M GPU
12GB RAM (DDR4)
Windows 10
I have Arma installed on SSD as well
Btw I'm on a laptop
All settings are on the lowest I could possibly make them
steady hawk
Make it higher and see. Or just autodetect and adjust a bit
Make video settings lower makes it worse
knotty latch
I turned them up and gained like 5 fps lmao. It's still only 18fps though and I can run DayZ at 30-50fps and R6 at 200+ fps
steady hawk
Well acceptable and avg FPS for a (populated) multiplayer
knotty latch
Oh wow, sorry I was unaware. Thanks for the help

How is the usage monitored? Per application or just overall? Could be other programs using the connection too.

Yeah, use the Resource Monitor app in Windows, networking tab, to filter it to a specific application.

I've been messing around with my keybinds so that my aim in will let me hold instead of toggle it and it seems to be working fine but when I use a multiplied scope it'll max out the zoom level instantly, my mouses side buttons already adjust that so how can I remove it from my secondary/right mouse button?

Hello people. I've been trying to try out terrain editing. I've followed the PMC wiki guide. Installed Arma3 Tools, Mikero's Tools, ran ArmA3P.cmd and set up P:. However, I can't actually get the actual program Terrain Editor to launch whatsoever.
I get to the launcher/menu for Arma3 Tools, if I try to enter any of them the tool simply doesn't start.
Is there something obvious I could have missed? Should Terrain Builder be able to launch even without P: for example. So I could start troubleshooting there? It hasn't started at all at any stage.
I haven't been able to track down an answer myself. So I came here for help
uncut trellis
it should start yes
but you should try starting TB from its own exe
the tools launcher can bug out

This specific server we're using isn't allowing me to use the custom config for difficulty.
When I host the mission locally, third person and waypoints work. But when its on this server, no third person, no way points, nothing.
It's ONLY the server. I don't get what could possibly be causing this.
pine kite
The server might have veteran difficulty enabled, or specifically disabled third person, waypoints not showing, etc. Consult with the server admin if he is willing to change it.

Anyone playing on UW that has their video signal drop every now and then? Like I'll be playing and the screen will go black as if I disconnected the video cable, then it'll come back. Playing Fullscreen in case that's important
It doesn't happen outside of Arma. Haven't tried other games but on desktop it's fine

I have a problem with my Arma 3 installation. Steam doesn't recognize the installation anymore. That happened after the game froze and I had to hw-reset the computer. The files are there and I can launch the game directly from the directory. I can also launch the launcher, who tells me, that the optional DLCs are "not installed" (as opposed to "not owned", but those directories are there too. There's one I didn't buy (yet) and it has the appropriate red lock icon. The others however have an icon I cannot interpret. Steam does show the downloads of workshop content, that the launcher does download. Any ideas for a fix apart from a complete reinstall?
steady hawk
Make sure your drive that has the game is detected by Windows
brave bolt
What do you mean by that?
I can start the game via file explorer. I can also start all other games on that via Steam
steady hawk
Then restart Steam
brave bolt
I did, that is the state since 3 days
I've been poking around in the directory looking for any potentially locked files, but couldn't find any
But tbh I really don't know where to look
steady hawk
What do you mean?
brave bolt
That's something office files create when in use, during a anormal shutdown, they can remain locked and not be opened again. Deleting them helps. Actually that wouldn't explain why Steam doesn't see it, but I had no other idea
Also if I start the game via file explorer, Steam does recognize that in my profile status

Is there a way to modify the key binds for RHS Aircraft?
brave bolt
It solved itself. I have no clue how. Just copied the profile to a backup folder, in case I have to reinstall and plugged the monitor to another computer. Plugging it back and tabbing back to Steam it now is alright ... Maybe Steam downloaded some needed file in the background ....

Hi all,
Just starting the tutorial, for a weird reason, spacebar doesnt work to get in car. Any suggestions?
ps: I have install a pack full of dlc, helicopter etc... maybe smth interfear.
when scrolling I get the menu, and key is mapped.
Rings a bell to anyone?
steady hawk
- A mission or Mod or something can lock a vehicle
- Where are you struggling at? The map part where you need to find lost soldiers?
- Make sure you scroll the mouse wheel to select the “get in” action
fresh sphinx
- Have no mod, but expansions and DLC
- First Tutorial, after shooting range, triangled support on map, then need to get in car.
- Works says, take driver seat, then spacebar doesnt do anything. neither Enter
steady hawk
Wheel click?
fresh sphinx
nope 🙂
steady hawk
Then verify the game
fresh sphinx
but in wheel menu, if I select inventory, instead of Get in hunter as driver, it works... :/
So I see the little wheel, space doesnt work. I mapped to other keys, still no luck, but when primary is selecting inventory in the wheel menu it works,... ok... well 🙂
fresh sphinx
not before having the issue, now I did to remap to see with other keys,... but even when I remap clicking default, it still doesnt
anyway,... so its not a known bug apparently!?
I'll see if it works outside the tutorial
fresh sphinx
Was answering goat,
ok, so there is a verify install somewhere!?

Something, made it crash, it doesn't provide any clue on what made it crash
helpful
How can I fix it if it doesn't provide explanation
quaint jewel
You could report it on the feedback tracker, if you send the full report (with .mdmp files) then the developers can usually see why it crashed
Or maybe you could give more information about what you did when it crashed, that might help guess what it could be

quaint jewel

south hill
no
quaint jewel
Do you use a USB Headset?
quaint jewel
maybe its that, can you set the games audio output (in audio options) to something else and try if it still crashes
looks like this could be the famous USB headset crash
quaint jewel
its just for testing
south hill
ok
quaint jewel
yes
its probably just the usb/wirelessness, we have a potential maybe fix coming up on #perf_prof_branch in a few weeks
wise barn
The biggest issue with Bluetooth headsets is, they have no mic active right from the start, and the intenal channel setting is "stereo" (phones only). It's mostly giod in SP, but as soon as you play multiplayer and the mic gets triggeted, the headset changes the settings on the fly while in game. And we all know arma doesn't really like changeing such settings on the fly

Is there a known issue with the Game Updater in Arma 3 tools in regards to password length and/or certain characters? I have a very long password and it has lots of symbols and it kept failing to login until I changed my steam password to something much simpler. Obviously I don't want to do that permanently but it's a massive hassle of a workaround.
quaint jewel
nop, but also Don't think we tested more than 30 chars
it could be special chars, specifically " might break it

Sorry to interrupt, I've got a question, I'm using C130 mod to drop APC in the air, it works fine with player as pilot. But when I use playAction script, AI pilot is not cooperate? only idears?
I'm using script like: pilot1 playAction "Open Ramp"; , and I put them in the waypoint.

Well, it obviously cannot find the file for that mission. If you rent the server somewhere, then their support (you pay them for that) is the proper place to get help on how to get it in the proper place to get it found by the game. Or tell how theirs systems work.

They said something is missing but I have all dependencies and even re installed everything

place down a box

place a character
make it playable ofc
run the mission in the editor and open the arsenal from the box you've placed

TFAR is a radio mod, unrelated to a specific mission as far as I know.
compact monolith
hmm
orchid spruce
yes
orchid spruce
i use 0.9.12
pine kite
Make sure that foldername for TFAR beta is correct. I've read about a similar issue (maybe different discord) that did not have exclamation marks in the folder name.
orchid spruce
We have installed TFR 0.9.12 to our server and placed this into our modline @task_force_radio;
We have intalled the plugin to TS3 and enabled.
we load into the server together at the same time and it works, we move to the TaskForceRadio default channel in the TS3.
Howether if we leave and try to login again, TFR no longer moves us, unless we restart our server and login at same time again.
This is when using the Mike Force mod on our dedicated server
@pine kite any ideas?
pine kite
I never used TFAR myself. So I can't say. Short of what I remember and wrote about before.
orchid spruce
its really annoying if we restart the server and synchronise "go" from the lobby it works
if we login individually it doesnt
TS3 does not move us
uncut trellis
why dont you use the TFAR Beta?
pine kite
Check in the RPT file the server generates if the mod is actually found and loaded.
uncut trellis
its more up to date?
uncut trellis
eh?
orchid spruce
i know...
uncut trellis
is it your mikeforce server?

yes
sorry yes
We uploaded the mods from Steam
directly
and placed in command line
orchid spruce
Then you likely messed up the paths.
How you mean buddy
pine kite
If the server says TFAR is not loaded while you said it should be loaded in the server command line, then something is incorrect in that regard.
orchid spruce
we have tried the 0.9.12v and seems to be the only success we had, providing we restart the server and login exactly at the same time.
The Beta version just throws us an error saying TFAR not installed on server.
orchid spruce
If the server says TFAR is not loaded while you said it should be loaded in the ...
How ever it does moves us down to the TS3 channel
and we get the bleep before loading in

Like I said, I never used TFAR myself. I have no clue how it works with Teamspeak.

I just bought Arma, and I am trying to play with my friend and whenever I join his server which has mods, I get an error code saying Client/Server Version Mismatch. Is that a mod problem? and if it is, what should I do about it?
pine kite
Yes, either he has, or you have different mods applied than the other (whoever hosts)
brazen nest
ah
We went through all of our mods and we had all of the same ones downloaded and loaded
Could it be the mods version that is the problem?
It is running off of ACE
pine kite
Maybe the name seems to match for you, but version number may be different.
brazen nest
ah
so I would just have to go to the steam workshop and download the latest version tehn
then*
pine kite
The error message should tell what exactly is the difference.
brazen nest
okay, thanks!
compact monolith

Wouldn't ACE just throw up a Version Mismatch after connecting to the mission?

Make sure Steam downloads the latest version. Verify the game in steam, or repair the mod through the launcher.

and im trying to use cars on antistasi
Some trucks do not have much power to climb slopes indeed. But you have to be more specific than that. Video example perhaps. Cars added by mods? Then which mods?
compact monolith
pine kite
Looks like a quad. Stuck on something perhaps?
pine kite
Well, that seems like an Antistasi version that is not updated regularly. I can vouch for quads in the Community version of Antistasi.
And anything can happen if you used more mods that you did not tell thusfar.
compact monolith
Well, that seems like an Antistasi version that is not updated regularly. I can ...
err
this one right
pine kite
Yes
Does it happen in that too? If so, then you likely have another mod messing it up.
But I see you moved to the Antistasi discord too.

Hi, i have problem with my arma for few last weeks. For some reason after launching arma it keeps trying to download some files and instantly stops, then repeat(every few seconds) this process until i shut down A3 or it randomly stops. If it would be only cosmetic then i wouldn't care but each time it start this process i get freeze, so each few seconds i get 0.5sec freeze, its quite annoying. Anyone had this issue before and/or know how to fix it permanently?

I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I have made a mod for the Arma 3 community for PVP servers who are having issues with AMD drivers not properly rendering foilage on trees, leaves, plants, grass. This mod simply disables the ATOC video setting in the menu by default for anyone who uses this pbo. I am offering this pbo free to the community to use in their own modpacks to fix this issue until AMD resolves the problem, etc. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2600613790
pine kite
Wasn't that a setting in the graphics option of Arma 3?
hexed mist
Yes. This mod defaults all the video settings for ATOC to have no effect, so players cannot take advantage of this. If you have a PVP server and players are shooting through trees and killing players and it does not make sense or it seems like they shouldn't be able to see, this is the reason.
pine kite
Ok then, makes sense to force out the cheaters.
hexed mist
On our BreakingPoint Aftermath server, we were getting cheater accusations multiple times a day for weeks until I discovered what was going on. When we implemented this video fix, the cheating accusations basically went away. This mod forces players to not have the ATOC option. If you turn on the ATOC option with the bugged AMD drivers, foilage disappears.

Hey, I recently decided to wipe my Arma 3 harddrive folder because it was full of shit over the years. With all the clan shit, server shit, and obscure ass mods, I racked up almost a whopping 350+ GB of SHIT! Better yet, I have no one to play with, until mysteriously after I deleted all my mods, a few friends reached out to me. Just when I was getting out, I got pulled back in.
They sent me CUP mods to download, and I thought nothing could really happen, but I was wrong.
The shit is all corrupted. Every time I add a mod I used to have in the past - it's all corrupted.
Like how? I already cleared my steam download cache, so I don't know what the fuck is happening. A few of the mods WILL work, I just have to keep redownloading then. It's annoying af.
I also noticed while downloading ARMA mods, it'll flicker as 'corrupted', then resume downloading.
wheat apex
I believe there is a "repair" setting for the workshop downlaoads in the launcher. It also wouldn't hurt to verify the integrity of the game cache when you delete a bunch of files like that.
wheat apex
Did you unsubscribe from the mods before deleting them? If not that might be the cause of some problems as well

Yeah i did
but I deleted it from th workshop folder afterwards

Well, repairing them in the launcher usually works. The red chainlink icon in your screenshot means "missing dependencies" btw
wise barn
@sand dragon you are missing dependencies for cup units to work.
CBA_A3, CUP weapons
You would have noticed if you ha clicked on units an read the information
The red symbol always means missing dependencies

As of recently I have gotten awful mini-stutters in Arma. I believed it could've been because my previous PC was on it's last legs, and perfectly timed I had ordered a new PC just before the stutters started. However - even on my new PC the exact same stutters continued. These stutters are constant, rapid, and make nothing possible to do. I can barely put down an object in the editor or select something in the arsenal.
It should go without saying that this only happens in Arma, the PC itself doesn't experience any stuttering when Arma does (mouse moves around just fine).
I changed everything excluding my SSDs and HDDs in this build, even changed my OS.
Stuttering with no mods or CLDCs loaded.

I can provide old PC specs too if needed, or any other info I might've forgotten.
Issue started rather recently on old PC. I don't remember having made any changes before it started.
Issue happened from the getgo on new PC.
Only thing in common between old and new PC is the exact same installation of Arma in the exact same SSD. (Profiles and settings where wiped by Steam)
Oh and - all video settings are Very High, PiP and Water disabled, Shadow set to 100m. The Disabled/2x/4x/8x setting is disabled.
golden nova
have you checked what's the disk usage when you have your arma running?
i remember having same problem in War Thunder and CoH, I believe there were two issues:
a) faulty HDD, swapped to one faster with more cache
b) faulty PSU, bought a gold grade one 700W
you could check the voltage parameters on your motherboard, maybe there are some spikes that make your game run like that
next narwhal
Game is on an SSD. The PSU is completely new, Gold 750W, but I'll check the voltage just in case anyway
Again however, all other games run fine, while Arma lags just in the menu before there should be any real heavy lifting needed
golden nova
are other games also on this one SSD?

when players respawn with Respawns set to "respawn on custom position" they appear ontop of their own body for a second in that classes default gear before being moved to their respawn marker they selected? Is this a known bug or?
next narwhal
"Solved", check https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/1418662313628794...
Found the cause - steam Arma workshop has an infinite download loop when Arma is opened. It makes steam have 10%+ of the cpu and that gets arma to freeze constantly. It doesn't happen to any other games because the loop starts when the game (not launcher) is launched
So new q is - anybody knows how to fix it?
Deleting AppWorkshop_107410.acf fixed the issue, but upon steam restart can't fin ld any mods, and when it finds them issue is back
pine kite
Set steam to not download while playing perhaps?
next narwhal
That doesn't stop the download
It's a glitch, the download starts no matter what when the game is finished loading
next narwhal
The download issue caused Arma to lag alot in the past, but was fixed by an update steam did. But as of 3 days ago, steam updated again and their new (god awful) download screen has brought this stuttering back
Restarting either steam or arma obviously doesn't solve it. I've tried all the obvious fixes
patent kettle
tried unsubscribing and resubscribing all mods?
steady hawk
True
next narwhal
As of now only thing I can think could work would be editing appworkshop_107410.acf or unsubbing from all mods, and since I have 1.8k mods I'd rather not do that
Since resubbing to them all would take a bit of time
patent kettle
wtf, are you subscribing half of the workshop or what. xD
next narwhal
More or less)
patent kettle
It's very much possible something in the ACF file went wrong and steam has no idea how to fix this.
next narwhal
This issue when I first got it I tracked so subscribing to certain missions on the workshop
But since that issue didn't cause issues back then (~3 years ago) I didn't look much into it
next narwhal
And unsubbing from the mission back then didn't fix it. Now I don't remember which one it is, so I'm guessing I would need to unsub from missions and then edit the .acf file
patent kettle
maybe there's something useful in there 
next narwhal
I'll try that, thx for the idea
Issue with those is that I don't know how to read them (yet)

Maybe it's in the text for the other 1.8K mods. This seems like it downloads these 3 mods normally.

You said you've got new PC, how long are you using it and when the issue started? Maybe it just needs to revalidate all of these workshop items.
next narwhal
Instantly when I got the new PC, because I set it up yesterday
It started on my previous PC 3 days ago, because thats when steam updated

If you've setup it yesterday maybe it needs some time.

These errors are rare, and seem to be what is the issue being caused
I'll try deleting those files, see what changes
If it's not those, but instead all files that are on the list.. thats gonna be 400 mods to delete manually

I have a squaddie crashing on login and receiving this error message after the latest Windows update. "Arma 3 has exited in an unusual manner" "Exit Code: 0xC0000005-Status_Access_Violation" Any suggestions?
uncut trellis
there is a wiki page about common access violation errors, that one may have been listed in there too
quaint jewel
This is just a generic message that doesn't say anything besides "Arma Crashed", with no hints about why it crashed.
Commonly it can be a corrupted game file, so you can verify your game files in steam
next narwhal
Update, there are 409 items that are causing that, and they all seemed very similar. After checking by subscribed items, I noticed my assumption was correct
It seems this is being specifically caused by compositions
patent kettle
So for some reason steam constantly tries to download the compositions?
patent kettle
that's weird. Are compositions using new or old backend @quaint jewel ?
next narwhal
This is weird cuz I had this glitch long before compositions where added, but I guess it was solved by steam
quaint jewel
old afaik
next narwhal
And now with the latest update, it's not missions but compositions this time
patent kettle
if old then steam is not doing anything by itself.
So it must be arma telling it to download them in a loop.
Weird.
patent kettle
And now with the latest update, it's not missions but compositions this time
missions are also on old steam workshop backend, so same case basically.
next narwhal
Well, mission ID's aren't part of the logs
But they where a few years ago when I had this issue the first time (but without the massive lag)
I will unsub from the 4 specific ones that are giving a weird error and see if that is fixed

To be fair, before the stuttering happened, I subscribed to a few compositions and then launched arma
Maybe going just over 400 caused the issue?

Afaik it does

Yeah looked like this from the logs, there seems to be no caching and it does it on every launch
next narwhal
For some reason however this goes into a loop of some sort
next narwhal
It was a stretch, but going from 409 to 399 compositions didn't solve the issue(
Trying to remove the the ones causing weird errors now
next narwhal
Ait, I possibly figured a "fix", which is pretty bad
Double checking it one last time before I report my findings here
next narwhal
Ait, so;
First of all, thanks for the great suggestion @patent kettle , without checking the workshop_log.txt file I would've never found this.
Arma getting into the main menu sends out a request to steam to re-download every composition at once, as @quaint jewel said.
For me that happened @ 18:38:44. Those requests look like this: [2021-09-16 18:38:44] [AppID 107410] Download item AASSDDFFGG requested by app
After that the workshop downloads and installs them all one by one. That looks like this:
[2021-09-16 18:38:48] [AppID 107410] Starting Workshop download job (requested item AASSDDFFGG )
[2021-09-16 18:38:48] [AppID 107410] Workshop update job started while app is running, commit : yes
[2021-09-16 18:38:50] [AppID 107410] Download item AASSDDFFGG result : OK
[2021-09-16 18:38:50] [AppID 107410] Finished Workshop download job : No Error
I have 409 subscribed compositions, and it looked like every composition install takes ~2 seconds, so I calculated that it should take around 13 minutes to finish (409/(60/2)). Result was more or less correct, with the final composition being loaded @ 18:50:16.
This is fine, but after the latest Steam update @ Sep 13th, they made changes to the download screen. Other than the obvious-to-spot horrendous changes, it seems that they have made to the code too, as after Arma launches and starts sending these requests to the workshop, it experiences horrendous lag that makes it unplayable. This lag ends the very moment the final composition is downloaded and installed, in my case - 12 minutes after launch. I also got some friends to test this and they confirmed that they had a little bit of stuttering happening, way less then me however since they had very few compositions subscribed.
Most people won't notice it, but for somebody with many compositions this makes it impossible to do anything until this re-download & re-install combo is finished.
For obvious reasons, this isn't so good. Should I contact BI or Steam with this to try and get the issue solved?
quaint jewel
next narwhal
Also tagged Veteran29 and Dedmen cuz assumed you might find this interesting since you where part of the discussion earlier
quaint jewel
I'll make a ticket and if we can reproduce we'll talk to Valve
next narwhal
So far I can only speak for myself and my friend (who only had 10 compositions, so ~20 seconds of lag)
Until it's fixed I guess I will load all the compositions and re-save them as my own in the editor
I hope that doesn't fall under #ip_rights_violations issues 😂
quaint jewel
I made a ticket, may look at it next week

Nice find and thanks for describing it in detail.

All of them used the video I posted above as example, since you loose the least time by just checking if the animations stutter or not
patent kettle
I wonder if it would stutter with better CPU/More cores
Yeah no stutter, all works smoothly. And it's only 12s to DL 30 compositions for me.
next narwhal
Well, I've got a i5 11600k I just bought
All my friends that tried it have weaker CPUs however, but point stands
Maybe it's some other hardware?
All my hardware is literally built two days ago, so it's as fresh as it gets. GPU is a bit outdated however, but still a factory-fresh one
But I had the exact same stuttering on my previous PC, which was waaay outdated (how ever I don't know if it was also a 2 seconds per composition)
