My mind doesn't always work well tho so no guarantees

[next narwhal]

Understandable, thanks eitherway))

[icy totem]

Anyone know how to fix a version mismatch? I somehow have a version that is incompatible with some servers (official and modded) . Didn't do this manually or anything

[rancid shale]

updated server to latest version and now no one can join because it thinks we have a squad-url active when no one does

[quaint jewel]

no one can join because it thinks we have a squad-url active
How did you come to that conclusion?

[rancid shale]

done a server update, updated my client, when ppl, join the server they get you have a squad-url active message and it kicks

[wraith schooner]

Ok im lost, i tried everything but i think the only way to fix my problem is to reinstall all of my mods

[pseudo sky]

hello i have a problem
i cant play arma 3 multiplayer cuz next to servers is big red X

[dense cedar]

Lou already told you in general

[brave hawk]

Wymagana: 2.04
you updated today to: 2.06
wait for the server to update

[pseudo sky]

ok how

ok

i know

thanks sorry for ping

[wooden oar]

For some reason steam had been updating my arma 3 for the pass 3 hour

its saying fixing program for 3 hour now

I could launch it through the files though

[wraith schooner]

@grim tinsel hemlo, hope i don't bother you, i got somewhere i think. I moved my appworkshop_107410.acf to the desktop, cleared download caches, then did the file thing where you have to copy paste the workshopitemdetails in workshop installed and now my mod initialise but steam is trying to redownload them and the usual method is not working.

[grim tinsel]

Hm ok

[fringe salmon]

How did you fix it.

[wraith schooner]

now i can actually start arma, tho the mods are marked with an update pending

[fringe salmon]

Yeah dissabling arma didnt work

[uncut trellis]

@wraith schooner repair the mods from the [ . . . ] button menu

[rotund panther]

@fringe salmon Don't have access to arma currently, but I'll get back to you

[wraith schooner]

unfortunately by doing so I'd reinstall all my mods

ok so now it generated an incomplete appworkshop_107410.acf

i see, if i use my completed appworkshop_107410.acf i get this

[wraith schooner]

if i let it generate a new one i get this instead

[grim tinsel]

No crossposting please.

[ornate flicker]

sorry

[fringe salmon]

I think it was a mod that was doing it.

[rotund panther]

that would make sense

[dusky pike]

I had that happen to me also

I would just let it validate.

[wraith schooner]

it wasn't doing anything for me just cloning the mods, i choosed to reinstall them

[agile ibex]

problem, all of my AI units are just going full auto and I myself can’t change the fire mode

Noticed something though,

This shows up everytime I start the game and whenever I try to switch modes it doesn’t work and the AI use full auto, only on select guns do they switch but it’s usually restricted to burst or full auto.

[quiet shoal]

Has anyone come across a bug where you take damage and a massive amount of blood splatters on your screen (more than you get from just ACE) and then there's nothing you can do to remove it except respawn?
Eg https://clips.twitch.tv/SleepyDeadSpiderPlanking-5e781s7DAqbTv_MT

We run a ton of mods so I'm hoping if someone else has seen the issue it can help to narrow down the problem
Thanks

[topaz barn]

Selected Audio Output: Speakers (High Definition Audio Device) - Channels: 2, Freq: 48000
I am not using this Audio Output. I can not switch the Audio Output.
CPU count in parameters is set, I've tried using compatibility & Running as Administrator

In Arma 3; no mods. No additions in any sort besides the DLCs, and even then the Optional ones are disabled

[wise barn]

was there a question in your post that we missed?

[topaz barn]

There is no sound

At all.

Nothing shows up in VoiceMeeter, nor in the Sound settings, despite the application being there.

[wise barn]

you start trouble shooting by leaving out all extras like voicemeeter ect

[topaz barn]

That's not possible afaik, since it has to be on for there to be sound at all

[wise barn]

no...?

just... leave it all out

set your output device in game to what it actually is

also in the windows sound options

then try if any sound at all is to be heared

once done, move on from there

select your speakers / headphones first

[topaz barn]

That did assist

Thank you

although I am finding one thing odd now

With that Audio Output selected, and then launch Arma, it will show multiple options for Audio Outputs in the options, but if I launch it with VoiceMeeter online it will only show a gray Default

Thank you nonetheless, this should make future fuckery a bit less fucky

[wise barn]

well, voicemeeter handles sound very differently than windows, and i'm not sure how exactly.
you could try to use virtual cable as the game output (if installed) and then use VC as the input in voicemeeter... i guess...

i'm not a voicemeeter user btw. i did in the past long ago for a fraction of time tho

[steady hawk]

Sorry to hear that

[wise barn]

F

explain your issue in detail

happens with pirated games

still, pirated game

no help for you

no help for game pirates. end of story

nobody cares

buy the game like everyone else

keep your voice down, son

easy with the profanity

[agile ibex]

game is like 15-20 bucks

wait for a holiday sale on steam and you get it lower

jfc dude

[violet pumice]

Just made a new scenario in the editor and noticed that everything was super bright, any ideas?

It doesn't appear to be a problem with my visual settings, as setting them to a default preset (Low, Standard, High, etc.) doesn't solve the issue

[uncut trellis]

what terrain?

[violet pumice]

It also is only in the editor, as placing a unit and starting it reverts to normal

[uncut trellis]

mods?

problem likely is mods.

[violet pumice]

Oh I thought it was happening on vanilla terrains as well, but I just double checked and it was normal

[uncut trellis]

you also might have the editor lamp on

[violet pumice]

Seems like it was just with the terrain, as other ones are normal

Thanks though!

[brittle sun]

is there no way of loading older saves in the new update?

I just get this

[static wyvern]

You may have to set your default sound device for your system to be a voicemeeter input

[brave hawk]

always has been the case indeed

[pine kite]

You'll have to tell Steam to install the legacy branch. (with accescode: Arma3Legacy204) Can't be done from ingame. It's basically an update-undo. And only 1 version backwards.

[quaint jewel]

Save files can be patched to maybe work in new version

[tacit vector]

Does anyone have a fix for the following?
Despite "Vertical Mode" and "Surface Snapping" are both turned off, things i place down in the editor still follow terrian and don't "sit straight" as in they get slighty offset in correlation with the terrain. Usually I would just fix this by having both "Vertical Mode" and "Surface Snapping" turned off and then holding SHIFT while using my mose to slight move the obejct to rest the snapping. However this no longer works.

Meaning that the X and Y rotation stay doesn't snap to 0 when using SHIFT to turn the object around or when trying to reset it. (Please ping if someone has a quick fix)

[brittle sun]

thanks, I'll do that and hopefully finish Old Man before the next update

[fringe salmon]

Some dude joined my server last night who is a bit of a troll, but I trust him and he had this bug or something that made it so he was crawling at like 25mph and flying around while on foot
what is this and how can I fix it?
Is he doing something I dont know about?

[vestal yacht]

very unlikely that it was a bug, more likely that he was running some script(s). Animspeed would be my guess from your description

[fringe salmon]

ok my host said my anti-cheat was off for mod reasons so that is likely

what can I do about it realistically? do I need to turn the anti-cheat back on?

[vestal yacht]

that's best yes

if you're not using ace you can also periodically check for stuff like animspeed being not 1, it's something I do on a vanilla server

[fringe salmon]

i always use ace and like 40+ mods

its not doing it for anyone else

[vestal yacht]

re-enable key verification and battleye is the easiest way then, I believe that you can work some magic with ace pbo whitelisting or something like that but battleye & keys is easier

[fringe salmon]

ty

[tacit vector]

Double checked the patchnotes: "Fixed: Eden Editor shift-click rotation was resetting rotation widget rotations - FT-T159275"
However this also broke the "Vertical mode" and "surface snapping"

[quaint jewel]

I posted here once how to do it with a hex editor.
Wanted to build a web tool but don't have the time

[quaint jewel]

More details? not aware of that

[tacit vector]

I'll send some quick pictures.
Here the both Vertical mode and Surface snapping is turned off

I palce down the pallet and it still snaps

[quaint jewel]

[tacit vector]

Same goes for when placing it on terrian

You can see the rotation follows the terrain despite both being turned off

However!

Doesn't happen with certain objects like houses:

[uncut trellis]

is the pallet a physics object

as if yes, its treated like any vehicle

houses on the other hand are not physics objects

[quaint jewel]

Would be good if someone else can also confirm this and that it shouldn't be like this and wasn't like this before, I don't have time today maybe tomorrow

[tacit vector]

I can confirm it wasn’t like this before. I’ll do some more troubleshooting as well:)

[tacit vector]

Why does it happen to the tent connectors too then?

[brave hawk]

gib?

#arma3_questions message

[kindred jewel]

When I press control in game it keeps locking on the key

Like it's pressing the key all the time

It only releases when I do ALT + TAB

Which is really annoying

See when the player starts leaning here I pressed control just 1 time and didn't hold the button

You can hear the click

And it applies even in Zeus mode when I press control it keeps rotating players

Ok now I know what it's doing

1 press of alt, control or shift locks the key and on releases when double clicking the same button

Which is weird

[dusky zenith]

Every time i open my arma this comes up, started happening ever since the new update. It wont let me download it as it says disk write error, and already tried defragging the disk and checked checked the integrity of the files.

[wise barn]

@dusky zenith
I think this was an issues before for someone. Not sure if the solution is pinned in #arma3_questions or else. But iirc @grim tinsel knows

[near hollow]

anyone getting the issue of steam not updating arma to 2.06? ive verified game files and nothing it will not update it

no wait it did it without me knowing...

disregard

[sacred saffron]

@near hollow Getting the same exact thing, cant update arma, uninstalling it to reinstalling it doesn't work either

[restive sequoia]

Super weird problem. Suddenly i can't use any flashlights.
Game files verified, tried with a new profile (button works) but no lights for me 😆
Lights in vehicles do work

[pine kite]

Disable any mods you have while you are at it. They can mess thing up too.

[restive sequoia]

i tried with a new player profile, lasers and car lights work

so its not the button

[sacred saffron]

So no one knows how to fix the arma not updating "disk write error" thing?

[wise barn]

check this

[teal ginkgo]

I'm having trouble opening ArmA 3 with mods, can anyone help me?

after I click in the close option the game closes with this message:

[uncut trellis]

that error message means you have a broken mod

[teal ginkgo]

how can I fix this?

I don't know wich mod is broken

[fringe salmon]

Hello, good night, morning, afternoon, This last update of the game has given me many problems, I cannot update the game because it says that I do not have internet, but not even reinstalling and installing can be done, I was left without playing

[uncut trellis]

youll have to turn them off and back on in small groups to see when it works and when it does not

@fringe salmon what says you dont have internet

[fringe salmon]

Exactly, it tells me that I do not have internet, but at the same time I have internet

[uncut trellis]

what is IT

we here can not read your mind or see your screen

you will have to share the details

[fringe salmon]

The only thing I know is that it comes out when I install the game, it appears that I do not have internet, and it does not let me install

And secondly, I am a Spanish-speaking person, and they should at least help me, not tell me that they can read my mind or my pc screen

[uncut trellis]

yes but what you are saying does not contain enough information

[teal ginkgo]

oh, i think i found the mod broken, it worked =)

[uncut trellis]

I do not know what program says you dont have internet

you say it

when you need to say name of the program

Steam

Arma

something else

[fringe salmon]

The only program that I use for Arma 3 and that you should also use would be Steam, that's the one that tells me that ""you don't have internet access, try later""

[uncut trellis]

ok then you can try restarting steam and restarting computer if that fixes the connection

[fringe salmon]

But that is giving me problems since the update took place, I already restarted the pc, I already restarted steam, I already did everything and it does not work for me

[uncut trellis]

you may need to contact steam tech support

[fringe salmon]

look

An error occurred while installing Arma 3 (write error on discor): D: steam / steamapps / appmanifest_107410.afc

but I install other games and the disk writing is normal, it installs them as if nothing

It is the same as what happened to the user SteveFromBluesClues that he does not let him install

I even did a check on the integrity of the files, and it appeared that everything is normal

[uncut trellis]

go delete that afc file and try again

[fringe salmon]

Ok, it has worked for me.

now I will have to wait until I finish to verify 100% if it works normally

It seems that this file was the cause of the error

[uncut trellis]

👍 excellent

good detective work

[silent forum]

22:14:32 File read error: addons\sounds_f_arsenal.pbo,17: Data error (cyclic redundancy check). Ran into 2x crashes when heli was shooting its rocket pods. Think this would be resolved in verify game integrity? Double checked mods already to our A3sync repo

Hi! Anyone noticed the ACE_altimeter cannot be opened after 2.06? Or it's just me?

[grim tinsel]

Best place to ask is props the ace slack

It was me so please disregard, sorry 😄

[grim tinsel]

[gritty swallow]

Hi, placing a Player and a "Game Master" Module synced with a "Set Costs - Modules" (with all the params set to 0, except animals to 1) should prevent the zeus from spawning animals right? Or I'm missing some required module? I don't think so because If i set the Paremeter "Misc." to 0 then I can't place any module.
(no mods, full vanilla)

[daring tulip]

So my Arma 3 has "uninstalled itself" two times in the last week. So weird, never happened before and not with Arma but any other game really. We I re-install it doesn't re download the whole game but it does redownload all the mods so a 90GB download twice out of nowhere...

[grim tinsel]

!steamredownload

[rustic eagle]

See this Steam discussion post for a possible fix of the workshop mod redownloading bug: https://steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/1/135510194254064583/

[grim tinsel]

fyi

[daring tulip]

Thanks! Will try that fix... But it wasn't something done on my part... perhaps a corrupted old mod?

[grim tinsel]

[quaint jewel]

It was the same way before.
This is 2.04

[quaint jewel]

looks to me like it was like this before..
I also didn't touch that code at all so... That would be weird if it changed

[quaint jewel]

Think this would be resolved in verify game integrity?
yes it would, either that or you have a potential hard drive problem

[silent forum]

Thanks, I haven't tested it yet, but there were 4 files replaced. I have not had issues with the m.2 yet, and if I do RIP my OS lol

[tacit vector]

I'd be dammed. My bad then

was the performance profiling build added to main arma 3 build?

people are getting issues we only had while using performance profiling build (like the one in the pics) , hence why im wondering if something was patched in the last update?

according to the wiki the build was provided by @tiny imp , https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Performance_Profiling , sorry for the ping but could you confirm? Didnt find anything related on the patch notes.

[uncut trellis]

whats the issue? @jolly viper

[jolly viper]

Basically while using the performance profiling build, the minimap displayed the bottom corner of the map, no matter the players location, now after the last arma 3 update, it happens with the main build too. So i was wondering if that build was added to the base game

i found nothing in the patch notes that could cause this change of behaviour in the main build

[quaint jewel]

we only had while using performance profiling build
But you never reported it even though you had the issue?

was the performance profiling build added to main arma 3 build?
No, but profiling branch is testing changes before they get into main build. So its normal for things that were in profiling to appear in main, if noone reports any problems with it.

hence why im wondering if something was patched in the last update?
Yes the last patch has indeed patched things

[jolly viper]

i meant something included from the performance profiling build

and well this only happened in a beta build so i guess thats the reason why nobody reported it, im actually surprised

[quaint jewel]

Well if people don't report bugs while they are in beta, and then they get released

[jolly viper]

but my concern was more if that is the cause this time too

[quaint jewel]

Can you reproduce that in vanilla? I'd imagine I'd have gotten more reports if anyone had this issue

[jolly viper]

but apparently its not since it was not included mmm

[quaint jewel]

but apparently its not since it was not included mmm
Thats not how that works

Tons of stuff from profiling branch was included

always is

[jolly viper]

ok

and no ive only tried with mods

[quaint jewel]

profiling branch is a preview, the same things that happen there also happen in main Arma

Considering noone else reported that issue, I'd say its something to do with your mods

[jolly viper]

yeah but since the mods did not update, it meant the behavior was changed at game level not mod level, hence why i was asking

thank you btw

[quaint jewel]

If you had reported it the first day you've seen it on profiling branch, I would've probably been able to know which exact change caused it

But now there are hundreds of changes packed together into a single update

[jolly viper]

yeah its been motnhs since someone first noticed

so... not easy to trace

[quaint jewel]

Not anymore no ^^

[rich mortar]

Used to have good fps 24/7 on arma

Ssme mods

Same map

Same player count

Now i get constant fps drops

From 50, drops to 0 and thsn back to 50

[tiny imp]

erm, we have whole #perf_prof_branch for that branch

[gleaming yarrow]

can some one help me

i upgraded my graphic cards of my vega56

ok i fixed it

[next narwhal]

When does it happen

[rich mortar]

everywhere

atleast when the game is modded

[next narwhal]

Doesn't happen without mods?

[rich mortar]

nope

i tried seeing what mod does it

neither of the ones im using

[uncut trellis]

possibly driver problem

disable ATOC

[nova elm]

Or try updating to driver version 21.10.1, it should have fixed that issue: https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-rad-win-21-10-1

[solemn pewter]

I have a game I made, planning on making a RP Community with ACE, and a bunch of other stuff.

Each time I launch the mission, it freezes and says "Missing ACE_advanced_ballistics", but only when I add in / make Military bases.

[brittle pawn]

i cant log in on the website what do i do?

this is what it says and its been like this for a week now

[halcyon adder]

Does anyone know how to fix arma doing "stutter updates"? When I enter eden, my game stutters every second because arma tries to validate a mod and then stops immediately before trying to validate again.

Pics attached, they cycle about once every second.

All my mods are up to date

Update: I just checked and this occurs anytime when I have arma open. Does not occur when I have only the launcher open.

[brazen tiger]

Has anyone of you already had this weird grey thingy ? I don't know how to remove it

[wise barn]

how many mods are you running?

[cloud geyser]

how do i update my arma 3 server version? host is hosthavoc

[wise barn]

your hoster has to update the server files

[cloud geyser]

managed to get through to the server and im almost there but now it's saying error loading mission when i log in to the server. so i think it has something to do with the PBO im using.

[brazen tiger]

A lot but its the first time i have it with my modset. Do you need my nodlist ?

[wise barn]

i don't need a list because it will be almost impossible to tell by it what could cause the issue. unload one mod at a time to see if the error persists

[cursive temple]

Hey, I want ask for help in the game. When I play it, the vegetations and bushes wont appear and when you're near them is causes a weird translucent shilloute on the leafs etc

onload all mods and retry

its the game when i launch it

thats what i dd

did

i unloaded all my mods

still dont work

could be discords ingame overlay

wait

lemme turn that off

Go to discord settings, game overlay

so back to this page... i contemplated that i need to select the mission by logging in and then picking a mission. but i can't type in commands from this page?

i been working on this for 4 hours.....

[quaint jewel]

You open chat and type commands there

Also looks like your server is missing required mods

[cloud geyser]

positive on it being a mod? i thought it was a pbo issue. also is it group chat or can it be any chat to input commands? because im doing #login (admin PW) and getting nothing

[quaint jewel]

looks like mod

any chat

[cloud geyser]

do i need bikeys or something for these mods? here is the script command i used and i thought this was right

@ace;@CBA_A3;@Enhanced Movement;@ShackTac User Interface (DISCONTINUED);@CUP Terrains - Core;@CUP Terrains - Maps;@IFA3_AIO_LITE;@CUP ACE3 Compatibility Addon - Terrains;@Iron Front ArmA 3 : ACE 3 Compatibility patch"

[clever sparrow]

Better to use a launcher

[cloud geyser]

what do you mean?

[cloud geyser]

yeah at this point im at a complete loss for this. i don't see how it could be a mod issue because i felt the command line i put above is flawless and all the mods were installed on the server via host havoc's steam workshop port

let me ask this, in the server config files "mission template" do i add the map the server will be on or the name of the mission file in PBO form for example: Antistasi-ChernarusWinter-2-5-2-IFA.Chernarus_Winter.pbo

without the .pbo at the end

so i think this is the issue. i get this error when i downloaded some mods: "Could not find a part of the path 'C:\TCAFiles\Users\userx\108391\steamapps\workshop\content\107410\583496184'. " this is not my server but im a sub user of this guy's server and this path directs me to his pc.

is there a fix to this issue?

[fringe acorn]

Anyone know how to fix this?

[steady hawk]

Somehow. The error says nothing about your issue, that's just “it's crashed, IDK what it was”

[mental river]

If you're on a laptop switch to your dedicated GPU

What are your specs?

Are you sure you don't have an integrated GPU?

open NVidia control panel

And there's an option for GPU activity

check it

yeah

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”

I want to fix it and keep CUP updated. Not backups

Then report the issue to the CUP team. Help them find the cause for it, and the fix in a future version. If you keep backups then you have something to fall back on in case things go belly up.

Hey folks I'm having problem with dedicated server and key mismatch with certain mods!
Long story short trying to host moded lib mission without ace
Only 13 mods
There's 7 mods that refuse to work
All the RHS mods, enhanced movement and something else.
I've wiped local files on client side updated to newest version of mods still nothing, on the server side I've tried uploading all my client files and then got a mismatch on all 13 mods...
Then tried yet again to set up server with workshop IDs and went back to same 7 mismatches.
Boys it's safe to say that I'm bad at it and if someone can lend me some knowledge or link to a guide I'll be more than happy!

I've hit the character limit for mods info to be transmitted to the launcher, resulting in all the mods showing as having signature mismatch in the launcher, even though you can still join the server if you ignore it.

theres a setting to change in the config to fix that, dont have it at hand right now tho

If you're subscribing to a lot of compositions this might be the reason for the stutter.

Arma tells steam to download them all on startup.

it might be it

disabling atoc fixed it

When you have the time, can you please share your driver version and which gpu you use?

Driver v21.10.1 should have fixed the issue.

I have, everything add ups. Server files and my files are all the same in the exact same folders. Keys are in the keys folder on the server

Strange, that error says the keys aren't in the keys folder.

You did add them to the keys folder in the main Arma 3 installation, correct?

You mean adding them to my keys in arma 3 directory? no I have never done that with any mods

Anyone know how to stop zeus enhanced compositions from not placing correctly?

i assume its purely because i try to put a static or a vehicle onto a vehicle and it just doesnt remember the position

[full night]

Open a console or dos prompt in windows with administrater permissions and do a check disk: "chkdsk x: /f" replace the x: with your drive. make sure it is not dying. If it is, you need to copy all the content to another HDD or SSD to save the files, then unplug the old HDD. You can buy a new HDD or copy the files to another drive if you have the space.

[grim tinsel]

What do you mean with 'not placing correctly'?

[pure wind]

Placed a Kord onto a truck, saved the composition then when i spawned it in again the kord was on the floor going through the truck

(i attached it not just spawn it in and position it)

[rotund panther]

maybe because the kord is a turret? Although, it should still work

[pure wind]

yeah vehicles and turrets do that

not sure about regular props

[grim tinsel]

Ah hm ye

[rotund panther]

Make try spawning the truck and kord above the ground a bit? It might have to do with that
Or try moving the kord a bit and reattaching? It might just be interacting with too much stuff

[pure wind]

its literally just a truck and a kord on it

nothing else

spawned it on the salt flats of altis

[rotund panther]

My guess is that, because the kord is attached in 1 place, ir's interacting with another part of the truck, like maybe the side of the truck bed or something

[pure wind]

wait wait what

[rotund panther]

Also make sure the kord is spawned basically on top of the truck

[pure wind]

zeus enhanced lets you use eden compositions??

[rotund panther]

yeah, part of 2.06

literally just goes to teh floor everytime

Hi! Bohemia forums don't allow searching so I'm asking here. Does anyone know how to disable surround sound from Arma when it apparently thinks that my 8in8out sound card is a surround sound system?

I have this sound issue where I hear everything on my headphones panned hard right or hard left. I think this is the behavior of side speakers for 7.1. speaker setup

But I just have stereo headphones and I would like to have that for Arma too

[peak acorn]

I’ve been banned from Arma3 for absolutely no reason. Last time I played I didn’t kill anyone, just ran around a bit

[pine kite]

Got banned where? Official servers or private servers? Only for the first will you have chances of appeal here. Private ones you need to talk to the admin of the server itself. It doesn't have to be an in-game action you did. It may also be use of bad language.

cant go third person in arma 3 (yes I have mods and tried without them, and yes im using the correct keybind) it only works in multiplayer

I think it would be helpful if you would be more specific about what "nothing" works, what you did so far and what troubleshooting steps you already took

never mind to my message before

Yeah

[median wyvern]

So i closed arma last night and turned it on today and for some reason everytime it thinks im a new player booting up for the first time and resets my VARS file and profile

I tried verriying game files and it just says everythings A Okay

Anyone know whats happening?

[pine kite]

Then there is #server_admins or the specific OS versions of those channels for that.

[vestal birch]

when you are completely zoomed out, is there any way when you scope to not go all the way to completely zoomed in?

Nope but ill have a look

I currently live in a foreign country, and just got a new gaming laptop I’ve played arma before in the states but when I moved it seems like all my games (armsa,squad, apex etc…) won’t let me play online and no servers show up

[long ore]

Could your new residental connection be blocking ports that are required for those games to query servers? Do you know whether the country you moved to has any internet restrictions?

Also try to reinstall the game. Maybe there is some regional load balancing or filtering that the game is doing.

[indigo shale]

why the official servers suddently dont appear in launcher server list

[lavish fossil]

Good morning folks. I used to be able to play arma 3 absolutely no problems with frames or anything. Now when load the game even in the main menu I can only run 8 fps. My geforce drivers are all up to date. Unknown why the game runs so slow all of a sudden, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game many times and still is not working well. Please @ me or dm me and give me some feed back

Hey, anyone knows what Fault address: 153F965D 00:153F965D Unknown module Means?

[midnight timber]

hi im new to the game and when i quick joined a random server, 3/4 of my screen was blacked out and i could only see the upper right corner, can anyone help me?

[uncut trellis]

did you try shutting down the game?

[astral coral]

Any idea what Fault address: 1CD6965D 00:1CD6965D Unknown module is?

One of our Zeuses is having trouble and crashes frequently

[midnight timber]

it only happened for a few multiplayer servers, should be fine now

[uncut trellis]

those servers probably ran some mod you did not have

[midnight timber]

Ah I see, how do I know which servers run mods and which don't?

[uncut trellis]

join servers through the launcher server browser

it can set up the mods a server has for you

[midnight timber]

Got it, thanks

[astral coral]

We isolated the issue, for some reason our person crashes whenever they press I

Any ide why this is?

[uncut trellis]

some item in their inventory with a serious bug with it

or corrupted mod files

or something between

[wispy moss]

so im trying to launch my arma 3 and it says its running on steam but in my task manager its not nor my task bar, the arma 3 launcher isnt even launching. Anyone know a fix?

[uncut trellis]

might need to restart your computer

[wispy moss]

that didnt seem to work, just reinstalled working fine now

[uncut trellis]

👍 likely some file got corrupted on install

it happens

[wispy moss]

was playing perfectly fine about 2 hours before that... im not sure what would make it not work

did verify game files too

[fringe salmon]

Okay so I have a player spawning UNDER the map - any ideas?

I'm running my own server

We think the idiot forgot to load the map

[uncut trellis]

quite likely

you should force mod check on your server settings

[fringe salmon]

I think we fixed it

We're just having a teamspeak issue now where he's getting spam protection preventing him from doing anything

[brazen tiger]

Yeah its the flooding parameter you have to change

[pine kite]

What happens if you press that stop button? And check if your antivirus or something is blocking starting it up.

[fringe salmon]

I cant join any other server

[pine kite]

Does it give an error message?

[fringe salmon]

No

Ive put in the adress

Like the name

Ive hosted my own server

[pine kite]

Did others succesfully connect to your server?

[fringe salmon]

No

[pine kite]

Maybe the server isn't online at the time. Find a server through the server browser in the launcher.

Make sure you do not have mods enabled that this particular server does not want/need.

Is there a way to disable error pop ups that require you to press the "close" button to get back to playing the game.

Our unit is using LAMBs danger and it keeps getting an error that needs you to move your mouse to the close button to keep playing, and this errors happens during combat which means when it does pop up someone usually get's killed because they can't do anything but close the pop up.

Hi all - I've just upgraded to a Samsung G9 Odyssey ultra wide monitor (resolution 5120x1440) and I'm struggling to get ArmA to work properly with it. I have tried a lot of different aspect ratios etc. but I can't get ArmA to work at this resolution. Is there a fix for it please?

PC Specs;
Nvidia RTX2080 8Gb Intel i7 9700 Gigabyte ATX Z390 AORUS PRO 32Gb Kingston HyperX Predator 3000Mhz

A series of screenshots illustrating the issue is here;

[uncut trellis]

My guess is Arma is not designed for ultra wide aspect ratio

[mossy silo]

It works for me with that kind of ultra-wide. I don’t think I had to do anything ſpecial.

But try changing tripleHead=1; to 0 in your Arma3Profile file.

Hello so out of nowhere this message pops up after launching the game

and there is the line

[quaint jewel]

try deleting your ace mod (in launcher click on the 3 dots and open local files)

delete all ace pbo's, then verify the mod in launcher to let it redownload

[fringe salmon]

Alright

[fringe salmon]

nope didn't work not it shows that message +

[quaint jewel]

it shows that after you click away the error

My ace runs fine

I'm pretty sure its some corrupted file on your end

You deleted your whole ace? all in here?
And then did repair and steam redownloaded it all?

No more ideas, good luck

Also make sure you are not loading ACEX anymore, but according to that message i think you already aren't

[fringe salmon]

Actually I think I am still loading acex lemme see

nope I don't, and yes I delete my whole ace

repaired/reinstalled it 3 times but without ace it all works fine

[quaint jewel]

XGVAR is defined in ace_main.pbo, if that is up to date (which redownloading should do) it should be fine

https://github.com/acemod/ACE3/blob/b12af1e0b592aa7f577127bc1a1bd9fd035fee27/addons/main/script_macros.hpp#L45

[night eagle]

So, I'm playing modded arma atm and everything's going fine till I got a message saying 'Weapon cooked off!' then the gun proceeded to fire by itself till I was out of bullets and I had to reload, then it did the same all over again.

I'm confused on what's going on. Any help would be amazing.

this is what i mean

the weapon is even on safe mod so there's no way i'm doing it

I reset loadout and having the same problem.

Changed loudouts and didn't have the problem.

As I changed back to the problem loadout then weapon fired while in ACE Arsenal

[uncut trellis]

ace thing I believe

could be something bugging out though

your weapon has overheated

and could be the heat for some reason does not reset

[vital spire]

having this alert

whenever I launch arma

[uncut trellis]

some ACE related thing is broken it seems

make sure you have latest ACE and try repair the mod

and make sure you dont have any poopy mods loaded that break it

[grim tinsel]

Well afaik it's amd who broke their driver

So other hardware isn't affected

[vital spire]

doesnt work

I repaired it

but its still fucked

I'm gonna unsub to all my mods then retry it

aight ill look into it thanks

yeah idk whats going on, ive updated all the mods, double checked the map and CFg file to ensure slots and players are allowed but i still cant even get on the server still keeps throwing me the "maximum number of players has been reached"

on the server browser it shows this

It kept saying I was still using mods even though I had unsubscribed from all of them so, I deleted all the files in the addons folder and now this happened

Nvm I have found the issue using this

Apparently I also somehow deleted the DLCs too

[vital shale]

I keep getting the Status Access Violation and cannot play the game at all any help??

[uncut trellis]

there is a wiki page for common status access violations and possible solutions

that one might be listed there

[brave needle]

I've seen that so many times.

So

Have you ever reset your computer?

Or booted it up with a separate drive?

[vital shale]

Yeah tried everything uninstalling the game a few times and yeah moving it to my hard drive

Even completely wiped my computer and tried again

[brave needle]

There

So

What happened to my PC

Is that the bootup drive I was using had some ARMA files.

But the rest was on a separate drive.

So, reboot your computer.

Go to the bootup menu when it gets prompted.

After, select a different bootup drive

And try to set your performance settings to standard for the time being.

I suggest you cycle through them and boot up arma.

[vital shale]

Okay will give this a try

Okay thank you

[brave needle]

Make sure you don't have any extra steam files.

Np.

I HATED IT

FOR A YEAR

I bought an entire new power supply just to turn out It was a super easy fix.

It work?

[pseudo bobcat]

Having an issue where my ADS is delayed?

Like i right click, it waits like 1/2 seconds, then aims

[vital shale]

@brave needle Tried everything you said and game is still either randomly closing with no error or giving me the status access violation

[brave needle]

Alr so

If not, verify the integrity of your game files.

[vital shale]

Tried that says everything is fine

[uncut trellis]

could be some other mod that contains some old ACE stuff too

first test by running without mods

and if that works start adding them to see when it breaks

[gilded marsh]

im running ACE 3 with RHS mods and all of the compats for it, however i cant seem to kill any unit with body armor on
