:(

#

could battleye be the problem?

wise barn
#

no

#

unload all mods
look up their server in the launcher server browser
join the server via server browser
let the launcher select an load the mods

vapid mist
wise barn
#

out of ideas then

vapid mist

wise venture
#

help, i keep randomly dying in common enemy
I'm walking directly behind the team leader and then i just fall over and die
no sound, no explosion, no nothing.
just suddenly die

#

(arma 3 "common enemy" campaign mission)

vapid mist
#

always the exact same spot?

wise venture
#

yeah

vapid mist
#

have you tried walking around that spot, incase there is a mine or something like that?

wise venture
#

doesnt work

#

its more of like a border i think

fringe salmon
#

Tried maybe using an item to interact with the area and see what happens? @wise venture

fringe salmon
#

Throw a grenade maybe first and then walk through.

wise venture
#

ill try

fringe salmon
#

Can not hurt to try. Then again, it could be some weird bug with an item or enemy something. Worth a shot, I guess.

#

That issue has appeared in games for I don't know how long. Some area that you go in and just die for no reason.

wise venture
#

just tried

#

didnt work

wise venture
fringe salmon
#

Yeah. Weird. I just thought that maybe interacting with the issue might change something.

wise venture
#

nope, all i did was accidentally kill my team leader

#

and then i still died when i walked through

fringe salmon
#

Guys, I have a problem. I can't start the game with the ACE 3 mod, I have a license.

uncut trellis
#

@wise venture do you run mods?

wise venture
uncut trellis
#

have you tried following further away

#

@fringe salmon do you have other mods? have you subscribed to ACE 3 on steam workshop? do you have error messages?

fringe salmon
#

With or without, the game still crashes. Error, now I will find a screen.

#

Yes, for ACE I signed up in a workshop, also for a dependent mod.

#

Here's something like this.

uncut trellis
#

hmm looks like ACE has not completely installed then

#

this is the one you have subscribed to yes?

fringe salmon
#

Yes, this is this addon.

uncut trellis
#

and you have followed the install instructions?

#

as you need to do little bit more than just subscribe

#

in case you are in a hurry, try googling it. Dont remember anyone mentioning any.

#

they dont work

uncut trellis
#

then there is none

sterile wigeon
#

they updated the artilery

#

how it works

elfin hull
#

does anyone know how to fix weird letters?

uncut trellis
#

try deleting your arma 3 game profile so your settings reset

elfin hull
#

ok

#

it worked thank you for the help

#

Anyone know why my localhosted server crashes

#

#

2 people lose connection at once
1 more person loses connection

So guys i have a problem with hosting dedicated servers(streamline severs) if anyone has the time and experience with this kindly pm me

grim tinsel
fringe salmon
#

Ask.

#

this problem is happening for some time, when i want to play Arma with/without mods, it wont launch

unreal fractal
#

After updating to the latest windows 11 preview build this happened

quaint jewel
#

might just be corrupted file, try verifying steam files

grand nova
#

everytime i try to load up arma it says it has to download the workshop

uncut trellis
#

at what point?

#

when you start the launcher?

#

when you start the game?

grand nova
#

when i press play in steam

uncut trellis
#

have you verified the game files?

grand nova
#

no

#

ill do that

unreal fractal
grand nova
uncut trellis
#

do you have mods?

grand nova
#

yep

#

it launched fine now

uncut trellis
#

well then its likely trying to download stuff for those

grand nova
#

thanks

uncut trellis
#

👍

strange current
#

What would you do if you mods kept showing up as corrupted even after validating

wheat apex
#

Validating the game files or repairing the mods in the launcher?

strange current
#

What if im having issues loading into the server I connect for about 2 seconds but then I disconnect. How do I fix that ?

uncut trellis
#

connect from where?

#

in game or launcher server browser

strange current
#

in game

uncut trellis
#

then likely you are trying to join a server with wrong mods loaded

#

use the launcher so you can set up mods before starting game

#

or it might be my game.

#

I'll write my problem again. I need your help, I have a problem with the ACE 3 mod. When I try to start the game with it, the game just crashes, the problem is in this mod. I do not know what to do...

uncut trellis
#

You have not installed it right

fringe salmon
#

How to install correctly?

uncut trellis
#

I linked you the guide page last time. Dont know more beyond that

fringe salmon
#

I don't think it helped me, but thanks.

Hi Arma!
Could it be possible that a vehicle loaded in another could move if the loading memory points move in an animation?
Because everything moves except the loaded vehicle: c
Thank you

uncut trellis
#

only with the updated attach to command

#

not with the vehicle in vehicle system

elder plinth
#

I could see that by testing otherwise, but suddenly we lose the notion of weight, and we have to redo a script to load?

Have you or redditors already submitted a report to AMD with AMD Bug Report Tool?

#

hello fellas i come with a problem

#

i've been trying to set up a server using the antistasi plus - panthera mission

#

right now everything is detected and configured correctly, i have reduced the modlist down to just CBA, CUP Core, CUP Terrains, and Island Panthera. but when i get into the server the mission gives me No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWorlds.Panthera'

#

i tried sitting through the mission file download but it would just kick me back to the mission screen and continue giving the error. i have hosted a LAN server running this map and mission before, so i'm curious as to what the problem could be

quaint jewel
#

No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWorlds.Panthera'
Yeah well Panthera mod not loaded

#

check command line for typos

fringe salmon
#

i've checked, and it is correctly written in the command line. it also shows up as found in the console log. by default it comes named as '@Island_Panthera' by the steam workshop so that could be improper. is there a place within the mission's .pbo contents that i could check to see what it's calling the map?

#

i'm going to try renaming it to '@Panthera' right now just to give it a shot

quaint jewel
#

is there a place within the mission's .pbo contents that i could check to see what it's calling the map?

This already says its calling it "Panthera"

No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWorlds.Panthera

fringe salmon
#

okay, hopefully this will solve it

quaint jewel
#

i'm going to try renaming it to '@Panthera' right now just to give it a shot
The name of the modfolder is irrelevant, as long as it matches the -mod command line

fringe salmon
#

oh okay

quaint jewel
#

can you send your RPT

fringe salmon
#

yes

#

one moment

#

oops, one moment that actually is not the problem

#

i had edited the commandline for the folder rename, my bad

#

gonna send another

there they are, it logged all the PBO's so it definitely loaded them

#

Just checked on my server

#

all missions that I have on panthera, are named panthera3 not Panthera

fringe salmon
#

ah okay. so the mission file is calling for an incorrect mapname? where could i find and change that

quaint jewel
#

its in the pbo name

fringe salmon
#

ah okay. so i should rename the pbo to Antistasi.Plus.panthera3?

quaint jewel
#

yes

fringe salmon
#

thank you very much. i'll try this

rustic pecan
#

running arma at 4k but with the render resolution turned down to 1440p runs worse than running arma at 1440p with the render resolution at 4k

#

any ideas why this might be?

#

like I suppose I'd expect it to run worse but it's huge, it's like a 40% fps deficit

hexed mist
rustic pecan
#

I suppose 4k is 2.25 times the pixels of 1440p but even so I wouldn't have expected the framerate to jump by this much since I was under the impression that arma is a cpu bound game. maybe I'm running into some weird issue with windows since I'm running borderless windowed.

rustic pecan
#

oh, is it possible to force arma to use windows compositing? right now it tries to disable it so you get the old style window chrome

Hey guys im experiencing a weird issue.. whenever im 5 mins or so inside a multiplayer game my game crashes my pc and it auto restarts.. any knows why? and no i dont have mods or DLCs installed

wise barn
#

If you whole PC restarts, it's most likely a hardware issue / overeating

#

*overheating

grim lake
#

i kept an eye on the temp it was all within usual

#

cpu wise and gpu wise

oblique portal
steady hawk
#

Then unload Mods

grim lake
#

@wise barn fixed it ... apparently Physx was being forced to run on cpu instead the gpu

grim lake
#

@grim tinsel go to Nvidia control panel on physx tab

grim tinsel
#

ah oki

and instead of auto, set it to ur gpu

#

Anyone here know why my subscribed addons in steam workshop are not showing up in the mods tab of the arma launcher?

#

Nevermind, it's magically working

gleaming elk
#

Not sure what is causing it, but when launching a certain mission in multiplayer when I leave server browser the mission is loaded in the main menu bg

#

with error "Picture images\loadscreen.jpg" not found

steady hawk
#

Because there's no such pic in the mission folder

gleaming elk
#

Also prevents it from being launched on a dedicated server.

grim lake
#

Any has any idea what this error means
"Error position: <ExileClientPlayerMoney; _stamina = Exile>"

keeps crashing my game

quaint jewel
#

No that doesn't crash your game

#

And you only posted the position of the error, not the actual error message.
No idea what the error is

grim lake
#

cant really find the error message since it crashed my whole pc and reboots it

#

@quaint jewel How can i find the actual error message ?

#

it only crashes in multiplayer btw

quaint jewel
#

Read the lines in the log above and below what you copied

grim lake
#
  • Error in expression <ntPlayerAttributes select 3);
    _wallet = ExileClientPlayerMoney;
    _stamina = Exile>
  • Error position: <ExileClientPlayerMoney;
    _stamina = Exile>
  • Error Undefined variable in expression: exileclientplayermoney
#

i guess the issue with the exile mod then.. i think

grim lake
#

what do u think @quaint jewel ?

fringe salmon
#

i've been trying to solve data mismatch issues on my server so that it is publicly accessible

#

but i'm having problems with the CUP mods. is there anything i should do to go about fixing this? i've tried reinstalling it on my PC and the server multiple times but i could be missing something

#

i can load into the server fine and so can my friends, but i notice whenever someone random joins, they get disconnected. i'm assuming this is why

grim tinsel
fringe salmon
#

no, do they need a link to the modpack? i was just assuming they could download it through the launcher

#

i have signature verification off though so i'm not sure if it shows the mods in the launcher or not with that off

#

🤤

grim tinsel
#

should show them afaik

#

but seems like an odd thing to have off on a public server

fringe salmon
#

it's just antistasi

#

not a pvp server

#

but i guess some agents of chaos could come into play

#

any idea what else could be causing a disconnect? if verification is off and they're still able to download everything i can't imagine what could be causing it

grim tinsel
#

mhh maybe rpt log says something?

#

!rpt

rustic eagleBOT
#
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'd need someone else to try and join because i can get in just fine

#

probably because i have my modpack installed but ideally i'd like people to be able to join from the launcher

Yo so I have this problem that whenever I am shooting or doing sone other activities like oppening doors sonetimes I get small lag not fps drop running on HDD,GTX1065 and Intel i7-9th gen

grim lake
#

Did u try running the malloc command @fringe salmon

fringe salmon
quaint jewel
#

Found the reason for that.
We can specify a priority for a file download, the lower it is the higher the priority, and 0 is a special value that means "abort everything else and do this immediately"
We didn't use the priority system at all and always set it to a default 0....

That means we'd start a download, and when we start the second download we say "Forget that first one, just skip it till later, this one here needs to be done immediately"
and repeat that for third, fourth, and so on. Until we queued all files and then it can finally download in peace without being interrupted after every single download start.

Now I just gotta figure out how to repro the freezing issue

patent kettle
#

I think the freezing was due to the Steam taking all the CPU/Disk for the updates.

next narwhal
#

Fascinating

#

Steam was only taking ~10% of my CPU

#

I've had a few more friends test those freezes for me, and everybody so far got the same results

quaint jewel
#

For the freezing I guess I need to subscribe to 30 or so compositions, which ugggh

patent kettle
#

I was unable to reproduce with around ~30, so might depend on the hardware.

next narwhal
#

I have pretty top of the line hardware, I build my PC specifically to get best possible performance on Arma, but I had the exact same freezing on my previous (very old n weak) PC

#

And my friends who had that happen to them had anything from a 4 year old i3 to a Ryzen Threadripper

patent kettle
#

weird.

#

Maybe it also depends on network speed?

#

In my case it was clear from the log that it was able to download the composition before next one was queued.

next narwhal
#

I have 250 Mbits/s up and 100 down

#

Idk about the other peoples speeds, one of them has a Gigabit up n down through

#

Mine where all downloaded before next where queed aswell on the steamlogs, but it looks like the queeing itself is what causes the freeze

#

As the lag interval is identical in length to the download interval (~2 seconds), and lag started when the new download started every time

"Warning Message: Addon 'CUP_Terrains_ACE_compat' requires addon 'CABuildings'"
anyone know why im getting this in my server console on boot? i moved CUP_Terrains_ACE_compat to the end of the start parameters

#

if i disable that mod i get an issue with project opfor and rhs instead

pine kite
# mighty crag What should i do

The game says you have mods enabled that are not accepted by the server because key files are missing on the server, or maybe the mod is not loaded correctly on the server because of typos. It shows something about Sangin. I have no clue what that is. But this is the kind of mod you should focus on. Not any other folder or mods names.

#

Remove/disable the mod on your client. That should get rid of that error insofar to make the server happy.

damn....

#

same here tried it since yesterday with the friend

nothing worked out yet

THE ABOVE IMAGE IS WHAT I GET AS SOON AS I LOAD IN I GET A 30 SECOND WINDOW THEN CRASH

#

we wrote a ticket to support half an hour ago lets see if they can help hopefully...

UNINSTALL THEN CLEAR SOME SPACE ON THE CHOSEN INSTALL DRIVE THEN REINSTALL FROM WHAT IVE SEEN ON FORUMS THATS HELPED A LOT OF PEOPLE

sinful copper

uninstalling didnt help either

#

tried already

#

@rigid lintel
First of all, get off your caps lock please.
Secondly, this is an error in a script

You can't fix it if it's a mission you did not make yourself

#

@rigid lintel caps lock off please

#

but then it's harder cuz he has to hold Shift

sinful copper
#

does noone have a fix? im just desperatly trying anything at this point because nothing works out ,we wrote a ticket on the forum but no answer yet ,google didnt help at all and ive even tried to ask in some discords that dont have anything to do with arma 3 without success

#

also cant refund it because hes got the game gifted with a key

grim lake
#

try turning off all sort of antiviruses n firewalls

#

@sinful copper

sinful copper
#

will try now hold on a sec

#

nope still crashes

#

i just see the main menu for like 5 seconds and then crash with 0xC0000005 -STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION

#

i also noticed that he only has like 10 fps when loading the game that also isnt normal

#

His specs are R5 3400g , radeon rx 570 8gb with 2x8 gb ddr4

#

his specs shouldnt be a problem

#

30 euro wasted i guess

#

also do note that it is saturday and people answering here are all just community memebers and do have other things to do than monitor the chat 24/7

grim lake
#

Im not sure tho but i think that error means game cant access certain file

#

Just to make sure .. try running steam as an administrator and then on arma launcher >> parameters>> second stab>> find memory allocator and set it to intel tbb malloc or something like that

#

Try launching the game after

#

Also on steam go on arma properties and set this code to run with the game

-malloc=system

which settings?

rigid lintel

all of them im running a nice build and i cant get arma 3 to stop crashing

#

ive tried 32 bit , 64 bit , mem allocation , ive configured settings , ive ran bulldozer, set my core count , adjusted the cfg , im at a loss , ive done 3 fresh installs and started over each time

wise barn
#

how many mods do you have loaded?

rigid lintel
#

not sure exactly but ive deleted all and tried multiple times my sons starter pc runs the game no problem and mine is 10x better so it has to be a setting

#

is there a vc we can go over them in with screen share

#

@wise barn

#

or anyone really i dont care who just need some serious help , ive been at this for 72 hours

wise barn
#

i don't do VC or DMs

how many mods are you running?

rigid lintel
#

13

wise barn
#

13 too much for troubleshooting

rigid lintel
#

i run 76 on dayz no problem

wise barn
#

whatever the issue is, you have to do vanilla first.
no mods, no custom mission

#

play some vanilla campaign or MP for a while and keep an eye on your temps ect

#

do not change any settings in the params

#

keep it stock

rigid lintel
#

ill try it

wise barn
#

this is to check if your issue is hardware, game or mod related

rigid lintel
#

already kicked

wise barn
#

kicked?

rigid lintel
#

yes game closed

wise barn
#

are you running the game in fullscreen windowed mode?

rigid lintel
#

im not sure how to check that in vanilla

wise barn
#

graphics settings > display

#

or something like that

rigid lintel
#

in the launcher?

wise barn
#

in game

rigid lintel
#

because from what i see there is no settings on this screen

wise barn
#

gimme a sec

rigid lintel
#

its set at full screen

#

there would be a window border if it was windowed

wise barn
#

use fullscreen window

#

then retry

rigid lintel
#

trying now

wise barn
#

sometimes error messages hide "behind" the game and get closed once the game closes.
with fullscreen window mode, you can tap out and see them if needed

rigid lintel
#

OK

#

closed again still no error message screen

#

@wise barn

wise barn
#

next step: verify game installation via steam

rigid lintel
#

done

#

and just got error

wise barn
#

what error?

rigid lintel
#

0xC0000005 - STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION

#

not on verify on game close

wise barn
#

you can skip verifying game files

#

(for now)

rigid lintel
#

the only thing i havent done on that list is roll back my graphics card and re install direct x

wise barn
#

AMD or Nvidia?

rigid lintel
#

i did do an update on my gpu during this so it wont be a roll back and Nvidia

wise barn
#

ok
roll back one version and reinstall directX

#

also redo the vcredist 2013

rigid lintel
#

just google direct x download?

#

what is vcridist

wise barn
#

there should be tutorials how to reinstall directX

wise barn
rigid lintel
#

i cant find that

wise barn
rigid lintel
#

uninstalled and re installed all

wise barn
#

reboot your PC and retry vanilla

rigid lintel
#

trying now

rigid lintel
#

worked for about 10 minutes then crashed with the same code

#

optics are not zeroing correctly. any way I can fix this issue?

#

no ideas? or more information needed?

uncut trellis
#

lot more

gusty haven
#

ok, launch arma 3 with NO mods or Optional dlc

#

go into virtual arsonal. pick a weapom with a rco optic, and put that sight into your backpack

#

then pick a lrps optic an reenter the virtual testing range

#

take a 30 shots at 1000m target with rco attached, then switch to lrps and take 30 more shots at 1000m

#

walk down range and see the rco shots fell 273 m short of target, and lrps went over the target

#

there was no change in the weapon except swaping the rco optic for the lrps optic

#

any advice?

uncut trellis
#

what zeroing value did you use?

gusty haven
#

i used the bottom hash mark on the rco, that should be 100m range, with lrps i set the range to 1000m with page up and zoomed to max zook. with boath sights i aimed for center mass

#

sorry rco bottom hash 1000m

#

rco optic is a static non adjustable sight

uncut trellis
#

you should use the page up and page down to adjust the zeroing

#

the visual parts of the scope may not be quite accurate

gusty haven
#

yes but the rco scope can not be page up or page down... you have to use the visual labled hash marks

uncut trellis
#

Then you can create a bug ticket and BI might take a look at it

#

nothing else to do im afraid

gusty haven
#

and yet, even thou I Did page up/down with the lrps.(long range persision scope) I set it to 1000m and shot center mass the tracer lines showed all shots went just over target head

#

so. bug? not something on my end then?

uncut trellis
#

possibly a bug.

gusty haven
#

ok, thank you for your assistance in this

#

heh, the "might take a look at it" part is disconcerting

uncut trellis
#

Arma 3 has moved into end of life state being as old as it it. There is quite small crew still doing stuff on it

#

if it has not come up before it may not be very big priority

#

it might also be some different gun works right with it

gusty haven
#

I saw some posts about a simular issue back in 2013... but they were about useing the same optic on different weapons and getting different zeros, never saw a fix for that either

uncut trellis
#

perhaps no ticket was made

gusty haven
#

ace mod fixed the issue, but the server i enjoy dose not allow mods

Hi, i need help with a problem im having on hosting a dedicated server.

The problem im having is that when im hosting using an scenario (on this case, Liberation RHS edition, can provide link to the steam workshop if needed), an error pops up when im joining the servers that says "maximum number of players reached", which is weird since in the cfg file i have it set up to support up to 12 players.
the mods im running on the server are all of the RHS mods but the one that add terrain, CBA and ASR AI3

footnote. this doesnt happen on all scenarios, if im hosting the regular Liberation made by Greuh this error doesnt happen

#

Any kind of input would be appreciated, i searched on google but it has yielded no results on my issue

Having Problem with the UPnP, I do have it enabled. and there is no settings for the IGD on my router. on my previous router (from another company) it used to be working fine. Not a firewall issue Checked that.

(Vanilla No mods)

pine kite
#

Some routers have UPnP disabled as it can be considered a security risk. So it is not garuanteed to work if you check the option in the game. Manual portforwarding is sometimes called 'virtual server' instead of port forwarding.

#

What do you mean with IGD acronym?

visual wharf
pine kite
#

Right, that would be appropriate.

#

Then you might want to ask your internet service provide how to set up port forwarding for IPv4 addresses, or ask if that is even possible. It's hard/impossible to help with unknown/custom router configuration interfaces. If you could show screenshots it might be possible to guide through it.

Not entire IP addresses I hope, leave the left numbers of them to identify what type they are.

pine kite
#

Don't know, typo maybe. Unbalanced number of curly brackets, lacking a semi-colon somewhere. Without examples the changes, who knows?

cosmic sparrow
pine kite
#

That looks good. Does the server load even with the profile "arma3"? Did you use the parameter -name=arma3 or is the username of the account that runs the server called arma3?

#

And the place where you define difficulty = "Custom"; ?

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.

Then uninstall, then download it again.

My game isn't loading, It'll let me go into Zeus, but once I try and actually play, it says it failed to load the Character, its also doing that on Multi player Servers. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

No mods are loaded, and I already validated Arma.

#

So no missing files.

possibly the mission is trying to access a file that does not come with it

there seems to be other bugs happening too at the distance

I updated my graphics card driver and i've been playing for a bit now

My game will start. It allowed me to actually launch. Now, it freezes at this. How can I fix this problems? I've tried 8 times, and I've waited 4 hours. Its been like this for 4 hours.

is it downloading the new prairie fire update?

wise barn
#

it's downloading workshop content or an update

#

just wait

solemn pewter
#

Not that I know of.

"Downloading Workshop"

wise barn

it says at the bottom: downloading...

#

just wait until it's done

How do I check my mods?

Is anyone else having trouble with the update? Getting an error about disk

#

Disk Write Error

wise barn
#

you need at least double the free space on your disk than the installation uses.

quaint phoenix
#

I do have double the space

wise barn
#

restart steam / your PC

quaint phoenix

I'll give that a try because I deleted all my games off my pc just to see if that would fix it

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.

Thats just it, it'll load load fine in the editor without anything saying there is missing workshop items and it get better if you host it as a mission on arma 3 game client though the editor its fine, but as soon as it is loaded on to a server, nope

recently ive been having some problems with the screen of my computer while playing arma. The screen goes black for 0.5-2 secs every X mins. It usually happens when ive been playing for like 2 hours of so, before it does not happen. I cant confirm this, but I think it happens more often in determined servers, sp and specialy when flying or with the map open. Can someone please help me? it only happens on arma btw.

possibly a gpu driver problem. might be a good idea to do a driver reinstall and see if that helps

But brings me to my next question, I have a few mods that add in custom vehicles, but then when I go to load them, none of the Avatar's work, and none of the vehicles work. It says that it can't find anything that is within the mod. Also I do have ACE.

"Avatar"?

ACE mod is not installed correctly

it needs more steps than just subscribing

Wat?

sterile crest

er... how should i explain it better

You can't get a part of a CDLC without enabling the CDLC

sterile crest

SOG launches its own version of the menu and seems to hide vanilla content

No. It won't hide anything

Things like the vanilla campaign are hidden

But afaik scenarios should still all show up @sterile crest

Hey, I'm having troubles getting something relatively simple. I need a second opinion or some quick guidance on this issue, so I'll be hanging around in the general vc. I'm specifically working on a CBA_A3 based addon/mod and I'm having troubles getting an sqf function to register. I'm defining the function in my config.cpp and I have the corresponding folder/file architecture. I've made a more detailed post on the subreddit, I linked to it in the 'ask_questions_here' chat a couple of hours ago.

#

even a link to a guide might help, however I've already read the documentation and tried a couple of things which are mentioned in the post. thanks!

i have a file called "whensteamfails.txt" with that link inside lol, but that's not really my problem, the mods are just not ready but installed, i don't have screenshot rn but you know when you just opened the launcher and you have to wait those 2-3 seconds so that all of the mods are ready? yeah, now the mods are not initializing for me and that gray clock icon remains
