arma3_troubleshooting

[round sinew]

wait a min

Here it shows it like its loaded

And as you can see in the launcher its disabled

[steady hawk]

Let me guess. Did you launched the game with modpack which has a lot of Mods in it?

[round sinew]

nope i only download standalone mods

[pearl sorrel]

Firesupport+ is loaded clearly. He hasnt realised that FSP+ has TTS things inside it

[round sinew]

no modpacks etc.

[round sinew]

So im just retarded?

[steady hawk]

Looks like Eagle is correct

[golden nova]

probably yes, but you have a chance to unretard yourself now

- 122mm rocket higher altitude, making it more "fair"
- Fresh TTS pbo, *should* fix issues?
- Removed 'Rock Slide', moved to Weather+ (Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2735613231)```
from the FSP+ changelog.

[round sinew]

Thanks kind sir. But will that fix my issues with missing factions in zeus?

[golden nova]

nope, because we don't know what mods you load

[pine kite]

Try it. Maybe the 2 are seperate issues.

[golden nova]

unload half of them, see if you have all the factions, if yes - start adding new one by one. if no - unload another half

[steady hawk]

My wild guess says it's just not Zeus compatible

[round sinew]

3CB and RHS arent compatible?

[pearl sorrel]

what faction mods are we talking about here anyway?

[round sinew]

3CB,RHS

[golden nova]

what factions are you missing and from which mod?

3CB or RHS

[pearl sorrel]

3cb factions or 3cb units...

rhs afrf/usaf etc or a faction mod that requires them?

[round sinew]

Both

[golden nova]

so you see no factions?

[round sinew]

RHS USAF etc.

[round sinew]

Nope

But once when i loaded into zeus they showed up. I then restarted the game

[steady hawk]

How did you confirm it didn't? In Editor?

[round sinew]

and again they were gone

[round sinew]

In eden editor they show and perform just fine

[golden nova]

are you sure you have enabled showing 3rd party stuff in Zeus?

[steady hawk]

And in where it didn't?

[golden nova]

it's in Game Master module settings, the one you give yourself zeus role.

[round sinew]

In zeus.

[steady hawk]

Ah that's what you mean

[pearl sorrel]

show us in zeus that BLUFOR faction list. (and do the same for the editor)

[round sinew]

Alright wait a min

[steady hawk]

What honger says. Make sure your Game Master module's setting is set to include unofficial addons

[round sinew]

And thats where. Im sorry i have it in czech so everything is kinda different

[steady hawk]

Game Master module's attribute (double click menu)

[round sinew]

These are the factions in eden

[golden nova]

change the "All official addons" to "include unofficial ones"

[pearl sorrel]

@round sinew next the game master module as like this

[round sinew]

Give me a sec my pc is dying

[pearl sorrel]

but like Honger said. default addons needs to include unofficial ones

[round sinew]

Uh how did you make him the game master?

I actually feel stupid sorry guys. Im a newcomer.

[fathom tiger]

How do you order an AI to do something in editor? Probably a dumb question but i can't figure it out

[pearl sorrel]

how did you access Zeus

[fathom tiger]

Like i want a heli to fly me somewhere

[pearl sorrel]

waypoints

[fathom tiger]

Shift+t?

What if im not in the heli does it still work?

[round sinew]

I entered a game through the eden and pressed Z

[pearl sorrel]

did you place the game master module down?

[pearl sorrel]

no clue about a keybind. but heres this https://community.bohemia.net/wiki/Waypoints

[round sinew]

No.

[pearl sorrel]

uhhhh. you shouldn't be able to access Zeus then.

Have you placed anything at all down? Or are you just placing a single playable unit and loading?

Becuase you should be placing down the game master module in order to access zeus (and the bit about unofficial addons is in there)

[round sinew]

Okay i will try it and get back to you.

I got to go now so i will message you later. Is that fine?

[pearl sorrel]

dont message. reply/@ me; here

[round sinew]

Okay! Thanks for new knowledge tho

[proper trout]

Hello, so I have this problem with Arma 3. Basicaly, I get huge freezes in firstperson when operating vehicles. It comes with sound glitches too, and just freezes in place for like 2 seconds and then continues normaly. It happens completely at random as far as I can tell, and only on 64 bits. I have tried using different memory alocators, have lowered my settings to lowest and play on 1600:900 res. Please help, I am loosing my mind :D.

[golden nova]

vanilla? Also lowering the settings may have even worse outcome than playing on ultra depending on what hardware you have, lowest settings put much more work on your CPU while on ultra most graphical stuff is done on GPU. Try lowering the view distance and object rendering distance, also make sure this happens with no mods.

If you use HDD i recommend buying a faster one or switching to SSD as this sounds like your hard drive is too slow to load all the stuff on time.

[proper trout]

So I am using a SSD, and view distance has nothing to do with it, at least from my tests

I will try setting my graphics to different values, but I doubt that will work

[golden nova]

and these issues persist even if you play clean, vanilla game with no mods?

sound glitches may be related to a USB headset if you use one, Arma does not like them, especially if its a wireless one with a dongle, but it often ends with a crash, not just a freeze.

Open the task manager or any software to measure the usage of your hardware along with its temps and see if you get any spikes or throttling

[proper trout]

ok so I do have a wireless headset

so that could be the issue, I will try unpluging it and playing without it, but sound is kinda important so if this is it I dont know what to do 😄

[golden nova]

if the glitches are gone, refer to this guide on how to fix the audio drivers to make them work with Arma #arma3_troubleshooting message
or buy a pair of wired headphones 😛

[proper trout]

I will consider that, these ones are falling appart, held only by the power of flex tape 😎

[rocky flame]

So all of my mods say they are corrupt

i deleted everything arma related on my pc

reset it

deleted my download cache

no matter what they still keep saying corrupted

any help?

[pastel wave]

I just downloaded Arma 3 on linux, when i launch the game i get this popup:
"addon a3_data_f_oldman requires addon a3_data_f_enoch_loadorder "

i have no DLCs bought (it shows i have zeus and malden dlcs but that are probably free dlcs)
when i turn on a campaign mission The East Wind it runs perfectly but when i fail a mission or die and then restart
I get this error:
"you cannot play/edit this mission it is depended on downloadable content that has been deleted.a3_data_f_enoch_loadorder"

loading a save causes the same error
i verified the game files twice now and it didnt work
its newly installed too

i have no mods/addons installed

im not sure where to post this so sorry if this is the wrong channel for it

[pine kite]

Have you tried to verify your install of Arma 3 through Steam? I don't know how this works on Linux, but if it is in anyway the same as Windows then it is like the following:

!steamverify

[rustic eagle]

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

[pine kite]

Ignore the last 2 lines. With Linux you don't have access to the launcher I understand.

[pastel wave]

uh yea i did

just did now

nothin

[pastel wave]

and yea its the same way

this is the third time i did

[pine kite]

Oh wait, maybe you have the old linux native version. That is way too old to play with cross platforms. You should use the windows version and start it through proton. I don't know how to switch to the Windows install though.

[pastel wave]

i downloaded it like 2 days ago

it reinstalled it i had it on windows

thne i ran install and it installed it in 2 - 4 hours

[pastel wave]

dk how to, it always runs x86_64 one

i can force it to use proton

im new to linux

[pine kite]

I'm still on the fence of leaving Windows 10 behind for Linux. I want to , but it's such a step back with gaming performance.
If you manage to start it and it shows version 2.08 then it is good, Windows version in Linux with proton. If it is 1.8something then it is the old native linux version.

[pastel wave]

For me i got double the fps on like games i play

[pine kite]

Maybe other Linux players can help. Or maybe people in #server_linux have an idea.

[pastel wave]

didnt knew that channel existed

[pastel wave]

Teardown, arma 3 (i dont play this game that much since im a newbie and my freind got it for me like a month ago didnt had space), garrys mod my pc doesnt explode after i spawn 200 npcs (around) csgo l4d2 etc.

though i have some performance issues on back 4 blood and ue4 games

its also 200% times faster but ill stop here to not go off topic

OK. i think ik why this error is happening

I forced it to use proton aaaaaaaaaand its redownloading

[pine kite]

I'm sure it is quite game specific which games play better in Linux. And I am not playing the most popular games. Maybe I just got to try again after the past year. Maybe it improved.

[pastel wave]

yeah

[pastel wave]

So i prob think the game didnt fully installed (i left my pc on with a shutdown timer) but then it shouldve just continued installing

[pine kite]

I would never trust a program installation to survive a sleep-mode/shutdown. But I am used to Windows, lol.

[pastel wave]

on windows it alwyas continued soo yea possibility it doesnt on linux

[jaunty python]

I think im having a problem with Arma 3, and my new mouse. I just bought a g502, and I have controls assigned to "Mouse wheel Up/Down" events. I cant find a way get those to work, but the mouse wheel works fine otherwise (it scrolls). This happens both in free and captive scroll modes. Is this a common problem?

[peak zinc]

@quaint jewel Heya, can you tell me again the name of the tool I could use to track down performance drops? It was a tool I had to run alongside Arma that you linked me afaik. Not sure if it works on the dev build too or I specifically needed the performance branch for it. Basically I have two vanilla GUER MLRS shooting at two points. As soon as the shells hit the ground the game seems to go nuts and FPS is at 2 and below. Want to track down if it is my mods/scripts that may cause this. Normal Advanced Fire Mission WP

[vagrant pumice]

Hey guys, me and my friend are really struggling to play arma together. when he or I post a server we cannot see each others servers even when we direct connect. can antyone help.?

[peak zinc]

are you sure that you have a public accessible IP that he can reach?

[vagrant pumice]

how do i checkl

I cannot join him either

[peak zinc]

like do you have a static IPv4 or is it CGNAT? Carrier-Grade NAT means that you have a shared IPv4 address that can't be used to host servers. Usually you can check your IP with https://whatsmyip.com/
However you would need to check your router to confirm what mode you are running on

[vagrant pumice]

how would i klnow the difference?

[peak zinc]

it could be that both you and your friend have CGNAT meaning internet is provided via shared IPv4 or you could also have Dual-Stack-Lite, meaning you have a static IPv6 address that can be used to host stuff, but your counter-part would also need an IPv6 connection to be able to connect

[vagrant pumice]

am i supposed to know what thast means?

[peak zinc]

the router should tell. Or if you have the name of your ISP product, their page might tell

[vagrant pumice]

do i just look at the router?

[peak zinc]

you would need to open the admin panel on it and look at the IP address it receives

[vagrant pumice]

ye, I will just stick to KOTH. Thanks for the help but I am very slow mentally

[peak zinc]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT && https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_transition_mechanism#Dual-Stack_Lite_(DS-Lite)
If you wanted to read those, it would be a lot of technical explanation on the terms. So probably not

But I guess the problem is really that your residential connections are limited. An alternative could be to setup something like Hamatchi or any other tunneling service, then it would work between you and your friends pc

other than that you could ask your ISP for a "static IPv4 address"

then you would get a different IP address that is soly reserved and routed to you. This Ip then your friend can use to connect to your server

[peak zinc]

aah found it in my mods folder. F:\Games\Mods\A3\@ArmaScriptProfiler\ that's the one

[fringe salmon]

Can someone help

All of the sudden it says I’m missing mods I’ve never had?

Most my single missions and some of my multiplayer missions says “Missing dependency CLSA”

I’ve never had a mod called that

[umbral narwhal]

Is that the Iron Curtain CDLC?

[fringe salmon]

I don’t know what this mod came from and the only mod on the steam is called iron curtain

I’ve had some of these mods before that eas even a thing

[umbral narwhal]

These are missions you've created?

[fringe salmon]

No from the library

I can’t play any of my missions

[umbral narwhal]

I would guess you're loading an additional mod and that's complaining about the missing dependency then.

[fringe salmon]

So should I try loading just one and see

[peak zinc]

CLSA is the community DLC Iron Courtains

[fringe salmon]

Yea I know so I was confused why all my mods suddenly say that’s missing

[peak zinc]

If you loaded a mission in the editor while having that community DLC loaded and you saved the mission it might have written itself into the file. You could always open the mission.sqm and clear the addons[] array

[fringe salmon]

I’m not to tech savvy where would I do that

[peak zinc]

Before

after

it is usually located under %userprofile%\Documents\Arma 3\missions\ and then your missions folder

there is then a file named mission.sqm

apparently force-load of a mission doesn't always work for every addon in the list, so a manual edit of the file is then needed.

[fringe salmon]

This worked tysm

Finallllyyt I can play opcom

Thanks too @peak zinc

I haven’t checked everyone just the one I wanted to play the most

[peak zinc]

✅

[waxen moon]

Anyone know why arma restarts my computer. i910700k, 2080ti, nzxt liquid cooling, and 32gb of ram… should be more than enough to run arma

[steady hawk]

How's your Event Viewer says?

[quaint jewel]

Arma Script Profiler, but your issue may not be script, and I don't know if its engine profiling part works

[pastel wave]

anyway im done installing it (installed it today) and im stuck on this screen

when i launched it it gave me: Gam e Error pop up

[peak zinc]

yeah, something in my VR mission seems borked. Just copied over the parts the MLRS shoots at to a blank VR mission and no issues. But same scripts are loaded in that blank mission. Do I need the perf branch for the profiler to work? Built intersect from source and loaded it with the Profiler, but the game crashed during loading https://aebian.org/mf/temp/arma3_x64_2022-04-20_03-19-42.mdmp

[peak zinc]

unbelievable, changed nothing but swapped out my 15 y/o HDD. It kinda seems that this for whatever reason made a difference (HDD was dying). Arma is on a nVME drive though. Guess it’s just Windows things again

[tribal kiln]

dynamic airports dont work

ai goes to the nearest original airport

instead of the runway available in front of them

[late tapir]

failing HDD is like the #1 most common hardware failure that slows down a computer but doesnt outright cause it to not work

if your computer is abnormally slow, even if you try to reinstall the OS, 95% of the time its dying HDD

[peak zinc]

well my computer isn't slow or anything. I mean the OS is on a nVME drive. However seems like the problem is not entirely linked to the HDD. Again my game freezes without any reason and the HDD that is no in (used as temp location for downloads'n stuff) is healthy. So something else must be the issue

lol

20 minutes ago I would've looked at that, now you gotta wait for tomorrow and hope I remember 😄

[peak zinc]

well, that's fine, off work is off work

[gaunt ridge]

So I have subscribed to a composition that has been removed from the workshop, but I can't seem to find a way to unsubscribe to remove this error that I keep getting in Eden as the game keeps trying to load it.

[silent crow]

how fix ?https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/492682635580014634/964712682605404221/unknown.png

[pine kite]

Repair Arma 3 through Steam verification I guess:

!steamverify

[rustic eagle]

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

[uncut trellis]

a mod you have or have made is very much broken. remove

[silent crow]

I removed all mods put one mod and still this error

[uncut trellis]

Either it's tha mod you left or you have installed mods directly into the game files and they be broken

It is something you've done

[silent crow]

thank you, I'll look into it

[gleaming yarrow]

any idea how to solve this bug

players are objects

[steady hawk]

Are they placed in Eden Editor?

[shell nacelle]

https://pastebin.com/RBTag3RY No Mods
https://pastebin.com/8ReV0wmr Mods
I encounter the same issue on each where It hangs on the loading screen before main menu.

[gleaming yarrow]

It is a normal mission and there are two zeus slots

The one is my Perspektive, thats where the players are players and no objects

The other zeus has this problem

[wispy surge]

So any ideas on what’s going on with (No entry ‘bin\config.bin/CfgWorlds/fallujah.description’.) Note: I do not have Fallujah loaded and I’ve gotten this pop up since March

[steady hawk]

Meant not Zeus, but units

[steady hawk]

Because of a bad Mod. Make sure it won't happen in vanilla

[wispy surge]

Not happening in Vanilla which is a good thing now the weird thing is it only pops up before opening a scenario but I don’t have a Fallujah scenario

[steady hawk]

As I said any bad Mod can cause that

[wispy surge]

Okay thanks

[gleaming yarrow]

Yes they are placed before in eden

[tribal kiln]

ZEN doesnt display all mod factions

even with the game master module

synced and including unofficial adfons

like the 3cb factions not showing up

[umbral narwhal]

I have this vague recollection that -autoinit causes that

[tribal kiln]

where is that

@umbral narwhal

[umbral narwhal]

Are you running a dedicated server?

[tribal kiln]

no

im in singleplayer in the editor

[umbral narwhal]

Not related then.

[tribal kiln]

oh

then what is it

[umbral narwhal]

No idea.

[tribal kiln]

oh

[golden nova]

if you can see 3CB factions in Zeus when you load ONLY 3CB Factions and its dependencies then one of your mods is broken

also give your zeus a variable and put that variable in game master module attributes, I had plenty of issues when I synced these modules, especially in multiplayer

[tribal kiln]

but i had it loading before

and suddenly it doesnt work anymore

no mods changed

[golden nova]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

you could ask on 3CB discord or ZEN discord, it might be fault of one of them

[tribal kiln]

oh they have a discord?

cool

[golden nova]

3CB Discord: https://discord.gg/CcM6ybg
ZEN Discord: https://discord.gg/kN7Jnhr

[tribal kiln]

thank you

[brave pollen]

so i have a problem so made a server like i normaly do but this time my friends dont see my server they have enabled the same mods and everything but they dont see it. i use UPNP and i know for sure that my settings are set up correctly because i played with them before

[silent crow]

how to make a virtual garage?

[brave pollen]

#arma3_questions

[burnt imp]

Try:
Turning off any VPNs
Confirm UPNP is enabled on your Router
Confirm friends can see you are in-game on Steam

Otherwise, watch this guide
https://youtu.be/rjX9hBrOaOM

[lost dragon]

why does my friend gets this error? 😄

[brave pollen]

it didnt help 😟 i have aleready tried reinstalling and veryfing the game files

and i watched the tutorial

[glass saddle]

@quaint jewel Thanks for helping with this by the way, I managed to fix it some time ago

[pallid kraken]

[final wigeon]

so I'm playing through the campaign for the first time, and I got to the "Bingo Fuel" mission. I got to the part where you have to make a decision and I saw on the wiki that you can get both of the objectives by killing the target by yourself, and then delivering the fuel to the FIA. The problem with this is that I can't find the convoy anywhere on the map. I've drove along the highway all the way to the edge (at least I assume that's what the point at which you just die is) and I've never found it. Is it just hiding off on the side of the road somewhere?

my friend thinks that the "squad 3" to the right of the OA is the convoy, but I've destroyed all of them (including the vehicle they have) and I haven't gotten an objective completed.

Does the decision even effect the missions afterwards?

and I can't even find any youtube videos where they do both

[grave plank]

Anyone know a solution for an Audio bug that only occurs while in first person and dampens all sound?

Not just dampen like how helmets automatically do, I'm virtually deaf to most noises

Gunfire and engines are silent, I can hear the shells hitting the ground and footsteps at normal volume but all else is damn near silent

[pine kite]

Are you using a USB audio device?

[grave plank]

No, wireless

[pine kite]

Well, is that connected via USB, or bluetooth?

[grave plank]

Bluetooth

[pine kite]

bluetooth can be connected via USB internally. Do you have analog output on your computer?

[grave plank]

I have no clue

I'm just gonna get a 3.5 I have lying around, will that fix it?

[median linden]

Hello, does anyone know the reason why my Editor compositions can not be saved? They can be selected after saving them, but when I try to place them nothing happens. It only shows me the yellow boxes from the objects. After closing and opening the Eden Editor the custom composition disappears. Furthermore I noticed it does not create a compositions folder in my "Other Profiles" directory. I double checked the authorization of the folder, it has all. I first encountered the problem while playing with mods. So i disabled everything and tried vanilla maps and objects but there was no difference, I also tried different saves and reinstalled the game and system, it still didn't work.

[pine kite]

Just to test if it is a hardware/OS thing or if it is mod related.

[granite venture]

Hey Im using the zeus in a single player mission I made and when I right click the menu will not come up I have it set to all addons, and its not working

[grave plank]

It was hardware

[pine kite]

Does that mean it works now? With 3.5mm jack plug/ analog audio?

[twilit wigeon]

how the hell do i fix this, very had it before

[mental river]

Do you run the game in Fullscreen Window mode?

Does the problem also happen in Fullscreen (not windowed)?

[twilit wigeon]

@mental river spam protection thinks i am spamming

but yes

[mental river]

Is your problem getting the overlay to show on top? or hiding it?

[twilit wigeon]

no all the ui stays and doesnt disapper

similar to screen tearing

[mental river]

Does it also happen without mods?

[twilit wigeon]

yes]

wait

[mental river]

hmm... I've never had this problem myself before, so I have no clue whatsoever...
Sorry

[twilit wigeon]

i turned off all my mods

it stopped

[mental river]

Now add them one by one to find the culprit 😬

[twilit wigeon]

I am going to turn each mod on individually to figure it out.

[mental river]

Or use binary method

Turn on half of your mods

If problem doesn't happen the buggy mod is not in that half

And keep going

Will save you some time

[twilit wigeon]

ah

[west vector]

Good morning. I hope i get help here 🙂 I have massive FPS Drops after a few minutes playing A3 Online Multiplayer (60 to 7 fps). Is it possible that A3 has problems to organize RAM and how can i fix it? Tx for answers 🙂

[mental river]

what are your startup parameters?

[mental river]

did you put those in Steam?

where is that?

also there's no "-high" parameter

[west vector]

yes in steam.

[mental river]

Steam launches the launcher, not the game

what are your launcher options then?

[rustic eagle]

Arma RPT

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

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

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

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

[mental river]

just paste the startup parameters from your rpt

[mental river]

I think you don't have enough virtual memory

10:34:20 VM busy 4187463680 B (reserved 287277056 B, committed 3900186624 B, mapped 94220288 B), free 107372544 B

10:34:20 Longest free VM region: 15794176 B

also as I mentioned, remove the -high parameter
no need to touch the -malloc either. the intel malloc is the best one

[west vector]

well its a new system with a rtx 3070 and ryzen 9 5900x and 32Gb ram

[mental river]

virtual mem, not RAM

[mental river]

anyway, for now make sure you don't touch malloc (use intel)

then try again

[west vector]

so i have to delete "malloc=xxx" and "high" and start again?

[mental river]

yes. also make sure the option is not selected in the launcher parameters

[west vector]

ok, i try

[mental river]

this one:

[west vector]

sure 64 bit?

[mental river]

oof...you're running the 32 bit version?

don't

[west vector]

yes

[mental river]

use 64 bit

32 bit version cannot use your RAM

also it's (kinda) broken

[west vector]

which one ? 64 bit or 64 bit default?

[mental river]

both are the same thing

[mental river]

just don't select that option

[west vector]

ok, i am in now. Current fps is 70 to 90 now

[west vector]

loool. My system shutdown

[mental river]

that's most likely not related to Arma itself

try running another heavy game to make sure

[west vector]

dayZ?

[mental river]

yeah that'll do

[west vector]

DayZ is running very well

[mental river]

try Arma again

[west vector]

My System shut down again :((

[mental river]

switch back to the system allocator, see if that fixes the problem

a game shouldn't be able to do that to your system tho

[west vector]

-malloc=system ??

[mental river]

idk. don't use command lines. just use the launcher

[mental river]

ye

[west vector]

again shutdown

[mental river]

post the latest rpt here
also if you have a crash dump (mdmp file) you might want to upload it here: https://feedback.bistudio.com/project/view/1/

[mental river]

maybe that's a mission bug. try the first showcase mission. don't play multiplayer just yet

[fringe salmon]

the showcase running very well

[mental river]

so it was a mission issue then

try another multiplayer server

with a different game mode

[fringe salmon]

i try KOTH

[west vector]

Again System Crashed

[west vector]

Shutdowns not happen with 32bit ?!?!? I give up for now. Maybe later i try again. Thank you for your help. 🙂

[mental river]

I have no idea why it crashes in multiplayer only. probably related to your network settings/adapter

I'll ping a dev. maybe he knows
@quaint jewel do you happen to know what's wrong? 👆

[quaint jewel]

no time to read that

[west vector]

Tx for your support Leopard20. Later i try again. 🙂

[fringe salmon]

where are all the servers im new to the game

[pine kite]

If you have never logged on to a server, then the 'recent' tab is empty. Try 'internet' instead and wait a while for it to populate. (usually there are around 5000-6000 servers worldwide)

[cosmic grove]

Anyone successfully using the Elgato Stream Decks in Arma?

[humble wagon]

@cosmic grove I think @wild bane uses that for his streams.

[fringe salmon]

No mods, disabled all of them, just deleted and reinstalled the game, verified files

still SOMETHING doesnt work

[steady hawk]

It is possible to have a STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION because of a bad mission/script/server as well. What exactly was the situation?

[fringe salmon]

I just reinstalled the game after a while, whenever i launched it , this happened

[cosmic grove]

yeah, I didn't mean for streaming, but actual in-game functions

Super Macro doesn't work, Hotkey function doesnt work... no key binds from the stream deck register in-game

even basic single key strokes

[humble wagon]

Well I know he has a separate radio for his ingame communication (real life military radio), I don't know if he uses his streamdeck for controls.

[fringe salmon]

what do these mean

[fringe salmon]

ok does anyone know how to fix this, i havent played arma for arround a month, done nothing other than that as far as i can tell

[burnt imp]

You can probably use a keymapping software like Xinput or KeyMapper. I have not personally used Stream Deck for in-game hotkeys.

[mental river]

where did you get that anyway?

[fringe salmon]

Nothing, just installed the game and its like this, havent played in a month maybe thats why

[uncut trellis]

unplug your usb headset (bluetooth usb dongle also applies) and try again

[fringe salmon]

well, cant play arma than

[uncut trellis]

yes but if its headset issue you can check out possible solution in the pinned messages

otherwise check the access violation wiki page if there are any solutions you can try

[grim tinsel]

[rustic eagle]

Arma RPT

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

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

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

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

[grim tinsel]

ah how I love using my own commands to troubleshoot stuff

[fringe salmon]

my headset isnt USB

it uses a circular

something like this

[uncut trellis]

👍 at least can rule out that as possible cause

[fringe salmon]

How Fix this

[steady hawk]

Load the proper Mod

[fringe salmon]

in the launcher?

[steady hawk]

Yes

It says you have a missing Mod so cannot load the object that the Mod has

[fringe salmon]

where load

[steady hawk]

You have the tons of loaded Mods already, so you know how to load it. The checkbox

[fringe salmon]

and what to do I did not understand

[steady hawk]

What?

[fringe salmon]

This

[steady hawk]

I don't know. The best bet is to recall what you unloaded recently

[fringe salmon]

This

[steady hawk]

Then load it and see what happens

[fringe salmon]

He tells me this

[steady hawk]

Then you're still missing the Mod

[fringe salmon]

In what sense?

It gives me the same mistake with this one too

[steady hawk]

Then you're still missing the Mod. Again I don't know which Mod has bg_crew_F so you need to find the Mod by yourself

[fringe salmon]

if checking the integrity of the game will help?

[steady hawk]

I don't think so. bg_crew_F is not a vanilla thing

[umbral narwhal]

Are these campaigns from the workshop?

[fringe salmon]

Where i need to find the mod ?????

[steady hawk]

IDK

...he left

[late tapir]

he got delefted

[strange meadow]

Can anyone help me with this

[uncut trellis]

if overthrow is a mission then you got broken mission files or if its mod then you got broken mod files

[pastel wave]

Finally got it working with windows god

no way it runs more good iwth wine !!!

AYO WTF??

TIS ON HIGH AND I HAVE 66 FPS, I HAD LIKE 40 ON NATIVE VERSION

[late tapir]

i wonder how its possible... everyone is using Arma3Sync to synchronize their mods, most players connect without issues but two of us are having compatibility issues

nevermind figured it out. mod load order... @niarms and @olive pawn_world_armoury have 2 different versions of sp_fwa_sig510.pbo, and i was loading fwa before niarms. switched the order and solved it

[calm rampart]

ive got a guy whos sound is not working to standard, the accute sounds of gunfire and grenades, barely there almost silence. moddd arma, any thoughts?

[uncut trellis]

try without mods first. could be mod problem. then check audio settings that he dont have some sort of surround sound enabled. Arma does not support that

[fringe salmon]

please help me

what is this

[uncut trellis]

broken mod download

repair mods

[fringe salmon]

omg

okay thanks

[primal aspen]

I've been dealing with a bug that I can't figure out for months now so if anyone knows this would really be helpful:

Mutliplayer: hideObjectGlobal vs Hide Terrain Object Module from Eden Editor
I have made several edits to different areas of the map and I use hideObjectGlobal in a server-side addon to hide the original objects that I want to replace or just remove. This seems to work for like 95% of people, but every now and then a player connects and they still see the original objects (which overlap with the new ones I placed). If they relog, it fixes it, but they (or someone else) may experience the same problem later. I've had someone tell me that putting Hide Terrain Object modules in my mission.sqm will do the same thing and solve this problem, but I can't seem to get that to work in multiplayer. If I am in the editor, it works just fine, but once I merge it into my mission.sqm it doesn't do anything...

Any ideas? I'd prefer to keep using hideObjectGlobal since that is way easier than the modules...but if it's not possible to fix this issue (which I think is related to JIP somehow) then I'll gladly take advice on the modules.

Also, to clarify: there are no errors regarding either the modules or the hideObjectGlobal in my RPT when this occurs and the overlapping object bug is not consistent at all. It's rare and generally doesn't affect the same people every time, but some people experience it more than others.

[mental river]

Terrain objects are not global

[primal aspen]

so I should just be using hideObject instead of hideObjectGlobal?

[mental river]

you have to use it locally for every client yes

[primal aspen]

Ok I'll give that a shot and see whats up then. 🙂 Thanks.

I thought that hideObjectGlobal meant hide objects for everyone all at once. Didn't realize it was something different/more specific.

[umbral narwhal]

I think it's probably supposed to work. Just that whatever code path it uses to handle terrain objects is bugged for JIP.

I never managed to replicate the problem, but I blind-fixed it for Antistasi by passing an array of buildings for clients to hide on connection.

[pastel wave]

the hell is this

was running perfectly fine yersteday on linux tho.

[pastel wave]

fixed

i restarted my pc and it works

[pure cipher]

Hey so I have downloaded multiple mods, for some reason in the Launcher I have no mods? What should I do?

[pastel wave]

haha SAME ERROR,

restarted my pc 3 times, nothing
i added -noLauncher option, doesnt evne turn on just crashes when i press play

ughghhg this is so frustrating ive been going on for an hour to FIX THIS

[west vector]

Hi, i start ArmA 64Bit and after 5 minutes Online Multiplayer my PC shuts down. My system is a Ryzen 9 5900X with a rtx3070 + 32 gb. What can i do?

[uncut trellis]

Make sure your gpu does not overheat

And make sure all your wires and components are plugged in correctly. That sound like pretty new machine so hopefully it's not hardware malfunction

[pine kite]

Make sure to investigate hardware issues through reported events in Event viewer from Windows. It's a bit technical, but if you notice it talks about a disk failure, or GPU failure or powerfailure then you know where to look further.

[west vector]

All other games running very well (DayZ, Pubg, GTA5) so i think its not a harware issue

[pine kite]

If you don't know what the cause is, it is best not to rule anything out before hand. Don't make assumptions.

[pastel wave]

nothing works

Please help: I cannot enable object placement parameter, and I have put myself under "Game master". I am using official Zeus servers. Nobody in the ones I have been joining, I can't figure it out. Very frustrating

[uncut trellis]

what do you mean by object placement parameter?

[fleet jolt]

So when I am in the lobby, I select "game master" and then the parameters option top right. Then it says: game moderator rights-canmot create objects (editing allowed) I would like to change it to Can create objects

Or be able to enable "God mode". I've looked on many forums and have had no luck. I know how to create and so on, but that was because someone else gave me the permission. But when in a lobby by myself, I cannot change the parameters

I will send a picture of what this looks like

"BULLS" is me.

[upbeat spire]

I beleave you have to put down player respawn point first then it will unlock so basicly go to modules that is 3 boxes and put down player respawn position after that it should give you all of the stuff in zeus that you need.

[fleet jolt]

I appreciate it. Will give it a go

anyone help, i have view distance all the way up and fog all the way down

[steep wedge]

I'm having a very bad audio bug where when I am looking in one direction and there is a helicopter behind me closing in, the sound comes from the front. if it is coming from the back right, the sound will be on the front left side. An explosion on the left side will be heard on the right side of my headphones. I unloaded all my sound mods and it is still going on. In simple terms, all sounds are inverted and I have removed all my mods and it still happens

Apparently I have deduced it down to my sound on my headphones being inverted

[mental river]

Maybe you're wearing your headphones the other way around. It happens sometimes...

[steep wedge]

No. The mic only turns one way

open the model (Assuming its yours, because otherwise you wouldn't be packing it), go to probably geometry LOD, edit the autocenter property and remove the trailing whitespace in its name

i did

[fringe salmon]

man what is this

this keeps popping up when i start the game

[quick raptor]

i downloaded a mod, it works for my friend but not me. we have all the same mods but mine doesn’t work. it is the BetterIR mod. For him it lets him use full screen nightvision but not for me.

[pine kite]

Exactly which mod is that? Please provide a link to the workshop. (As I can't find a clear one when searching for 'BettIR') Also, make sure you ask your friend to supply you with a list of mods he uses. Maybe you are missing a dependancy or something that is not required but allows the full screen solution.

[quick raptor]

https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2260572637

[burnt imp]

Full screen nightvision is not part of BettIR

Full screen nightvision can be obtained one of two ways

1. equip an NVG that has full screen view
2. subscribe to a Full Screen NVG mod so the full screen NVG works on all NVGs

[quick raptor]

how does my friend have it then? We have the same mod list

[pine kite]

Ask your friend.

[light orbit]

unrelated but hilarious, if you leave sog on the main menu long enough it breaks the background and stops like this XD

See #1

[quick raptor]

idk what one is

[burnt imp]

1. equip an NVG that has full screen view

Most NVGs are NOT full screen. You need to pick the same NVG as your friend

[uncut trellis]

how did you move it?

Also Arma generally works very poorly from external drive

[winter marsh]

I move it using steam

I wanted to save space on my PC

[uncut trellis]

Arma benefits from fast disk read. slow disks (external ones are usually quite slow) may cause stuttering

did you also do something to the proflie and misson folders in user\ folder

[winter marsh]

Nah I didn't touch them as far as I know and I don't think my brother would too

STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION is just an common error nothing more or less. You need more info e.g. Mods, missions, servers to seek a potential fix

[umbral narwhal]

@brave imp You'll have to narrow it down by trimming the mod list.

@ionic halo What sort of parameters are you talking about?

[ionic halo]

server parameters when you are at the member list? like persistant save and members requirements

[umbral narwhal]

ah, those.

They're highly mission-dependent.

[brave imp]

Well, it used to work. Then I remember adding platoon leader: High command, Squad Feedback, All-In-One Command Deluxe, and Hellenic Armed forces mod (hafm) helicopters.

[ionic halo]

its an antistasi server and you can setup the parameters as the server admin but once the server restarts it resets itself

[umbral narwhal]

Community antistasi or original barbolani?

[ionic halo]

community? its on the workshop as Antistasi - Malden

[umbral narwhal]

Community saves parameters with the saved game but the parameters screen can't show you them. It's explained at the top of the parameters screen.

Barbolani (original) versions do not.

The server host tech support says that the map needs to be in pbo format but from what I can tell it already is so I have tried pmaking the mission file itself pbo, Uninstalling and redownloading the map to the server and checking the folder for the mod to make sure it has a pbo file in it (it does) and still have the issue. Trying to see if anyone else has had this issue and how they fixed it. I sent the mission to another guy and it ran fine on their server he said. We host using host havok if that helps with any info. Thanks in advance for any help.

[umbral narwhal]

I don't know that map, but generally mission PBO names need to be in the exact format [whatever].mapname.pbo. If the mapname is wrong then you'll get errors like that.

Alternatively the PBO name might be correct and you're just not loading the map's mod on the server.

If you load the map mod locally, you can look up the map name in the config.

[chilly adder]

i literally rebooted my whole PC, hopefully arma doesnt crash now

like wiped everything away

[light orbit]

I have no idea why the hell it does it and I haven't been able to narrow it down to any mod so far but if you all tab in full screen window when you come back I don't know why but my game will be at the maximum brightness for a few seconds before going back to what I had it to beforehand

[quaint jewel]

No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgWorlds.fapovo'.
The machine that you got that log file from, doesn't have the "Fapovo" terrain mod loaded.

[last mountain]

As in the PC it came from? If that’s what you are saying then that is untrue as it came from my personal PC which is where the entire file came from and I do have fapovo as I did all the eden stuff for the mission and still have the map. If talking about server then that is also untrue as I made sure to uninstall and reinstall the map mod from the workshop and all the files are in a folder on the server.

[quaint jewel]

then that is untrue
Logs don't lie.
That log says you don't have fapovo, and if the log says that, then the log says the truth
Can have many possible reasons, like you typoed the start parameter, didn't provide start parameter, mod folder is empty, you're loading two mods with same name and they overwriting eachother, ...

[last mountain]

Only one mod on the server directly from steam and I dont type any of the start parameters myself

And I have been it the mod folder it is definitely not empty

[cinder tulip]

Hello, my game randomly tabs out and then discord "reconnects" but ends up in a unresponsive state. My game is technically still "running" and im in the server but i cant see the game in my taskbar, only in processes. and sometimes the entire computer locks up and becomes unresponsive and only fix is a restart. I cant open it from there. The game was running completely fine on the same server with the same mods yesterday. Nothing has changed whatsoever to my knowledge.

[quaint jewel]

and I dont type any of the start parameters myself
Then maybe whatever thing writes them for you, did it wrong

[umbral narwhal]

server RPT usually tells easily enough

Mod table says what tried to load and what actually loaded, plus you get most of the command line at the top.

[pearl sorrel]

If you're using havoc it is incredibly simple to show us the command line..
Literally called "command line manger" then we can see if the folder for the map matches the startup parameter

[next topaz]

Can anyone tell me how i can get my server to appear again when i host it... it was working just fine a week ago since i last played an now its no longer working what is the solution to this if this is common

[umbral narwhal]

It's common but no-one ever solves it as far as I can tell.

There are various things that can change (internal IP, firewall updates, router updates, ISP blocking).

[timid arrow]

hello! recently people have been randomly kicked off from our keyed server at random times, due to signature mismatch from vanilla (and official DLC) pbos. wondering if anyone might have a solution?

pbos in the karts dlc have been one of the more frequent ones, but its not often the same pbo.

[steady hawk]

You need to verify the game

!steamverify

[rustic eagle]

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

[steady hawk]

@timid arrow ^

[timid arrow]

i need to? the people getting kicked off need to? or the dedi server?

[steady hawk]

If one of them doesn't work, both

[light orbit]

Well does anybody have any remote idea why my Arma does this every time I alt-tab it's probably a mod but I have no idea which one it is and if it's not then how do I even go about fixing this because I would much rather not have my retinas burned out every time I click back into the game

[uncut trellis]

To make sure it's mod, run Arma without mods and try if it happens. Then start adding mods in small batches to see which one causes it

Or alternatively stop alt tabbinh

[floral mango]

Did you fix this? If you can you provide the very top of your servers rpt file? This will tell you if the mod is in the startup parameters correctly

[floral mango]

If you alt-tab a lot, have you thought about switching to windowed borderless mode? does the problem persist with windowed borderless?

[light orbit]

the problem happens IN borderless window

[floral mango]

Oh my bad. Weird. Are your graphics card drivers fully up to date?

[light orbit]

yeup

[floral mango]

Does it happen on any gamemode or just antistasi? e.g if you go into the editor?

[pine kite]

check if your contrast and brightness video settings in the game somehow got altered.

It's a good idea to verify if it also happens in other missions. But Antistasi doesn't have a feature where this happens on it's own.

[umbral narwhal]

Oddly enough it kinda does :P

It's specific to the SOG map. The code was donated by one of the SOG developers to make it brighter at night.

Not sure why it runs on that map rather than for the modset, but whatever.

you can turn it off with A3A_darkMapFixRunning = false as local

[pine kite]

Grrr, those nasty devs, they always know better. 😦

[umbral narwhal]

Does imply an Arma glitch though, like getLighting is returning garbage when alt-tabbed.

[last mountain]

I have not fixed it yet and I would be happy to send it to you when I am back in town. I just need to know what the rpt is? Would that be like the log view? I also noticed that the map and several of our other mods are not in the command lines and some old ones we no longer use are. Would that also cause issues?

[floral mango]

Yeah that could be the issue provided there's no -parameters file assigned in the startup parameters. The RPT file will be under your arma 3 server profile

[brave imp]

Hey, what does this error mean? I alt tabbed in the editor and it suddenly stopped responding and crashed.

Oh, so it basically became unresponsive and closed itself. How do I fix that?

[umbral narwhal]

Don't do whatever it was that you did again :P

If fullscreen alt-tab is unreliable then switch to fullscreen windowed.

[brave imp]

I don't remember if it was windowed or not

Though I did reinstall arma like two days ago

[fringe salmon]

server not responding

i have forwarded ports

idk wht else to do

[brazen shard]

How come the medic just stands by my body and doesn't help me?

These are my mods

So the medics/lifesavers can heal but they won't heal when I'm down or any of my team mates are down

[uncut trellis]

I don't think they do that by default. There is no "being down" in vanilla.

[steady hawk]

You can set one unconscious in vanilla but must be scripted/one will stand up again in no time

[brazen shard]

Sorry I meant

When you're unconscious

They just walk around you

Is there a way to see if mods are conflicting

[uncut trellis]

Yes I don't think there is such state in vanilla.

So some mod is adding that. Like ace so you would need something more to get ai do more advanced stuff

[brazen shard]

So would Ace be conducting it

[uncut trellis]

Perhaps

You got a lot of modd

[brazen shard]

Yeha

I can't find a good AI base

I can't pick between VCOM and such

[steady hawk]

But since your game is broken, you can't say but or your game is broken still

[brazen shard]

ohh

Wait Ace has a medical rewrite

[uncut trellis]

you really should know already what the mods you use do

[brazen shard]

Oh sorry

I just see a description of a mod and install it

Is there further information I have to read lmao?

[uncut trellis]

[brazen shard]

What do you suggest i do before installing mods

[uncut trellis]

Idk. Some mods have websites that tell more what they do.

[brazen shard]

OK TY for the help

[brazen shard]

How come in ACE, your player goes unconscious but dies straight away in vanilla ARMA 3

nvm just realized ACE3 prevents instant death

[uncut trellis]

Ace is not so great with singleplayer imo. At least the medical part. You could perhaps turn it off if you play singleplayer

[brazen shard]

How do you turn it off

I assume you have to delete all the PBO?

[pine kite]

There are "ACE without Medical" reuploads on the workshop. Some of it's non-obvious PBOs were a little bit more interwoven since the last release.

[pine kite]

It doesn't have to be the mod. As example, (Community) Antistasi mission without any mods also has your AI squad be very cautious to help you when you are down. They still think there is danger around. Or are not clever enough in their AI-stats to take the risk.

[glacial harness]

Any mod for that type of kevlar or helmet? (Sorry not good channel to send questions but can't send images on ask questions)

[uncut trellis]

On other channels you paste a link to picture. And probably not exactly like that but there are few scifi oriented mods around

[glacial harness]

Ye thx and any mod for X29 OICW?

I saw one time but i think it was deleted

[uncut trellis]

cup recently added one i think

[glacial harness]

Wow really didn't know about that

[grim tinsel]

Hey peeps my google fu isnt working today, what do I do to fix a pboproject error of 'no binarize tool' ?

[uncut trellis]

steam arma tools install broke?

[grim tinsel]

Ah ye should props check that, thanku

[storm temple]

hey, so rn i am dealing with some trash performance on arma 3, i am getting like 30 fps wiith mods, any help?

i am also having very low cpu and gpu utilization, i am playing on ultra/high

my pc specs are 5900x and 3070

[uncut trellis]

sounds about normal.

some mods can seriously tank fps

[storm temple]

tested without mods, normal, with mods, horrible, plus that my gpu fans where not spinning lol

[uncut trellis]

and if you are in multiplayer, the server FPS affects your local fps too

[storm temple]

playing with these mods

ik that RH and cup kills ur fps

but why the low utilization??

[uncut trellis]

well not on their own no

only if you have million different things on screen at the same time

[storm temple]

i only have discord, arma and steam open when i play

[uncut trellis]

check your GPU control panel too in case there is some weird performance template set for Arma

[storm temple]

plus that arma 3 is running a modified engine from 2001

[uncut trellis]

and check that you dont have any heavy graphic enhancements on GPU control panel on

they can eat a lot of frames

[storm temple]

Nvidia experience?

[uncut trellis]

if thats what your control panel is called.

[storm temple]

i only use it for drivers

[uncut trellis]

also you cpu and gpu did not exist when Arma was made. the tech was just a gamers wet dream at then

[uncut trellis]

so Arma may not utilize all fancy smanchy stuff new cards and cpus have

[storm temple]

its a old game

with an engine from 2001

[uncut trellis]

[storm temple]

yeah, gonna try to disable some mods

[uncut trellis]

what view distance you use?

is your game installed on ssd?

[storm temple]

yup

[storm temple]

2500 on overall

[uncut trellis]

that should work alright

[storm temple]

i just hope for arma (4), the performance will be amazing

[uncut trellis]

Id test just vanilla and in the single player campaign for a reference

[storm temple]

tested it with mods, i get 90fps( vanilla missions), on cup maps, it depends, since cup kills your fps, same goes for RHS*** mods

[uncut trellis]

that is a bit simplified way to look at it but yes

mods can cause less fps

due to more stuff being available and used

[storm temple]

ik, it has happened to me before in other games

[umbral narwhal]

CUP and RHS aren't script-heavy though, they're mostly assets.

[storm temple]

is there any way to get more fps when using them?

[umbral narwhal]

Can't say I've noticed them being much worse.

[uncut trellis]

what kind of scenario are you playing?

[umbral narwhal]

usually worst thing is that they use more RAM.

but client is typically not capped so that shouldn't be an issue.

[storm temple]

thats ok, i have plenty

[storm temple]

playing with a friend, doing dynamic war system on a german cup map i think

[umbral narwhal]

German CUP map...

[storm temple]

lemme check

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1527410521

[uncut trellis]

could very well be the mission thats has hard time performing.

also Rosche might be a bit heavier terrain

[storm temple]

nope, performance on other maps are worse

but that map is a bit optimized

[crisp junco]

Hello everyone can u guys help me out coz im frustrated now my graphics become like this suddenly and only in my unit server and only in my screen but when i try the editor its fine i tried everything including deleting the mods and the game multiple times and reset everything but still

The trees and building looks like Minecraft

[uncut trellis]

perhaps gpu overheating?

or running out of memory

[crisp junco]

non of that

[strong basin]

is there anyone who could help my friends an i play some liberation? i cant host due to no UPNP and parents. My friend can host but i cannot join him

[loud raft]

Im having issues

[grizzled zealot]

guys what is it? doesn't let me play

[mental river]

Corrupt or missing mod

[mental river]

Are you using a mod pack?

[brave imp]

Ok, so apparently it was fullscreen windowed

[toxic agate]

So like i open arma to make an screenshot and when i open it my screen turns grey and it doesn't loud out anything it just stays greay

I run with mods

And I open arma and when it loading its get grey

[dusky hill]

[static sky]

when im playing arma on my laptop my cpu gets to 97° in a few minutes how can i fix this

[toxic agate]

Graphics

[static sky]

i have set it to standard and its still getting hot

[toxic agate]

WHICH laptop do you have

[static sky]

asus rog strix g g531

[toxic agate]

How much space do you have in the disc where arma is

[static sky]

476gb and 5,6gb left

[toxic agate]

Strange

How many times did you laptop got hit?

Or how many times did it fall

[static sky]

not once

[toxic agate]

Does it goes hot when you are playing another game

?

[static sky]

maybe when i play gta on high graphics

[toxic agate]

Mhm

Ok so

[static sky]

and my fans are spinning really fast

never heard it spinning so loud on any other game

[toxic agate]

Maybe try to uninstall arma and the install it again

Wait

[static sky]

already did 2 days before

[toxic agate]

Do you use mods?

[toxic agate]

Oh

[static sky]

i launched my game without mods and dlcs

[toxic agate]

Then I can’t really help, I’m sorry

Michu do you use ReShade or real light 8?

[static sky]

wait

[static sky]

where can i see it

[toxic agate]

Steam, steamapps, common, arma3. And then search for it

[static sky]

no there is nothing

[toxic agate]

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

https://tenor.com/view/thinking-think-about-it-let-me-think-jerry-mouse-gif-16095863

Idk man can’t help

[grizzled zealot]

Yes, I use mods.

[grizzled zealot]

s, I use mods

[mental river]

how many more times are you gonna ping?

[mental river]

mod packs. not just a single mod

[wild lintel]

Why am I getting this

[mental river]

e.g. where did you get the CBA from? @grizzled zealot
it's old

[mental river]

probably it was removed/blocked by antivirus

[wild lintel]

What should I do

[mental river]

verify/repair the ACE mod from the launcher

!steamverify

[rustic eagle]

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

[fringe salmon]

Whenever I try to host a server it says my port forwarding works but people can see the server and I dont know why

[burnt imp]

Follow the steps in this video:

I am assuming people CANT see the server.

[wanton bay]

I can't access the scroll wheel menu? It just stopped working completely, I cant open things and get into vehicles
I can only open my inventory

[hollow rain]

Does anyone know any major changes in the arma3 update after May of last year? When I set up a private game server today using a mission from last May last year, whenever I connect into the game, the server automatically shuts down and the database doesn't show my data. .

[fringe salmon]

aight

[burnt imp]

There was a major update in March 2022 that required servers to make many updates.

[stray beacon]

anyone know why when i launch a mission and my friend who has the same mods etc. loads in he is stuck in a loading screen and still hears everything in game

[main bison]

loads game in

crashes

[open marsh]

step 1: verify local cache in steam

[honest jackal]

Can someone please explain how compositions work in Pub zeus, I save a mission I've made and there's a 50% chance it just won't work, i chunk it into multiple comps and it still doesn't work, are there forbidden objects or something that make it incompatible for Pub Zeus or servers in general

[fathom tiger]

can someone please help me with teamspeak. whenever i try to join a server it says microphone and headphones disabled even though both are plugged in and working.

[burnt imp]

Does your scroll wheel work in other apps?

[fringe salmon]

my arma3 settings keep resetting after I paste my settings files

[uncut trellis]

paste your settings files?

[fringe salmon]

fixed it

[grizzled zealot]

This is where I download mods.

[mental river]

then you probably have an old mod that's injecting CBA on its own

unload your mods and load them one by one to find which one's breaking it

[brave imp]

Hey, so how do I deal with this? I think its causing me some arma 3 lag

[uncut trellis]

close firefox...

X in the top right corner

or right click on the firefox task and end process

[brave imp]

I did that

It fixed it

But now how do I check what stuff I need to do in my arma 3 alive scenario?

Also, why does the ai like to go in deep rivers with vehicle when there's a bridge close by?

[uncut trellis]

you will probably find answers for Alive related questions best in Alive discord. I recall invite is at #channel_invites_list

[brave imp]

Strange, cause alive discord told me to go here. Since it isn't an alive problem but an arma 3 problem that bridges are considered as buildings with building positions and not bridges.

[umbral narwhal]

They didn't just tell you that you're screwed? :P

[uncut trellis]

well you also asked this #arma3_troubleshooting message

which is general alive question

bridges are special type of building that connects to road network

if terrain has bugged bridges that dont connect to road network, AI dont really know to use them

[umbral narwhal]

I'm not convinced, because they're awful at using most of the bridges on Altis, Malden and Tanoa.

[uncut trellis]

see this :#arma3_troubleshooting message

[umbral narwhal]

Having a fully connected road running over the bridge doesn't seem to help much IME.

[uncut trellis]

no that is not the right way to do bridges

bridge object itself is the road

there is certain ways it has to be done to work

well there is always the occasional ai bug

[umbral narwhal]

occasional :D

[uncut trellis]

but we extensively made sure bridges work on Cam Lao Nam

[umbral narwhal]

You should probably tell BIS how to do it :P

[uncut trellis]

of other maps I cant say though

such things are unlikely to get worked on at this stage I think

as unfortunate as it is

[brave imp]

Well, I'm using the Diyala(however it is spelled), Iraq map. Don't know how bridges are set up there.

Guess I can turn experimental driving on vcom and see if that does anything?

Nevermind, that might not fix the bridges problem

Ok, so I can't exactly tell if this is connected to the bridge network or not

[brave imp]

What would it look like if it was connected?

[uncut trellis]

You can't see it in game

[brave imp]

Oh

Well, this is the map I was using https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=680808574&searchtext=diyala

[pine kite]

Consider opening the case and check the inside and the fan assembly for clogging up dust. Or make sure the air intake holes are not covered.

[mental river]

Diyala uses pond objects for its rivers (they're not actually "water"). the game is kinda buggy with those objects

[brave imp]

Oh

Wait. This would be better in #arma3_questions

[uncut trellis]

ah that explains it. pond objects can be even more tricky things indeed

[uncut trellis]

Technically we dont have mod support channel really so no point swapping over at least.

everytime mods of anykind are involved, there is very little what can be done to debug problems

[brave imp]

That sentence was for me asking for what map would be good for a scenario in the middle east.
#arma3_questions message

[uncut trellis]

oh. alrighto then

[pale heart]

Hello, my private community dedicated server has recently (~last month, possibly after 2.08) started randomly kicking people for "wrong signature for file" error (we use verifysignatures=2).

The odd thing is that this issue is seemingly caused by base game files (see attached screenshot), and happens for random players at random moments during the mission (not while connecting to server/loading in). It also happens for random files as well. We've already tried having one playing reinstall Arma but he continues to receives the error.

The server is currently running x64 bit main branch with additional mods. I've tried googling around but have yet to find a fix. Please help, thank you

[mental river]

what's your server.cfg settings?

[pale heart]

Want a specific setting or the whole thing?

[mental river]

bandwidth stuff

• sockets

I meant basic.cfg not server.cfg

[pale heart]

That makes more sense 😂 one sec

language="English";
adapter=-1;
MinBandwidth=8000000;
MaxBandwidth=25000000;
MaxMsgSend=384;
MaxPing=2000;
MaxSizeGuaranteed=512;
MaxSizeNonguaranteed=256;
MinErrorToSend=0.003;
MaxCustomFileSize=100000;

[mental river]

the values don't seem too high. I've seen this problem happen due to desync, which is related to basic.cfg

if your server is small, why not start with the default values first?

[pale heart]

I believe these are the values that the host (host havoc) provided us. But I'll try switching to the defaults listed on the wiki and see how they perform. Thanks for the help 👍

[pearl sorrel]

Diyala isnt indexed. the AI spawns/pathfiding will be off until someone spends the time indexing it. Found this out the hard way.

[brave imp]

Oh great, so that spreadsheet lied then

And the alive discord didn't even tell me about it.

[lavish plank]

My input is stuttering, cutting out abruptly or repeating staggeringly.
Moving forward while only holding W becomes stopping occasionally, opening ACE menu becomes only a faint second, using ACRE becomes autoclicking the radio button and so on.

What could this be? How can I fix this other than by restarting the game?
It has been running for over two hours, fullscreen borderless, mostly tabbed out.

[gaunt hound]

I can not for the life of me get my server to show up for my friend. his isn't showing up for me either. I have tried almost all fixes, nothing has worked. Does anyone know what to do?

Any idea how to fix it. What additional data you need about this trouble?

[sharp ermine]

I turned off @Advanced Developer Tools and crashing stop... It is very sad, because these tools are very useful against native cfg viewer.

[steady hawk]

cc @mental river

Well the native Config Viewer is useless as heck indeed. I use my own viewer so...

[mental river]

I don't think it's related to my mod

Sounds like you've broken the config

Yeah. You have broken it

That sound it's looking for doesn't have space

Either it's diage_mergeConfig's fault or yours

Either way, the error is most likely not related to my mod. The game's trying to load a sound file. It can't. It crashes

If you get the error normally as well then ping me again

[sharp ermine]

@mental riverwhen i do same actions without your mod, arma works fine.
There is a config part which i'm edit.

Only one value in one field

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/708585600995033128/971299628937007114/unknown.png

[mental river]

What do you mean without my mod? What is the last thing you do before it crashes?

[sharp ermine]

I don't think it's related to my mod
Do you mean @Adv Dev Tools and you are author of it?

[steady hawk]

Yes

That's why I pinged him

[sharp ermine]

I just change integer value in that field from 85900 to 8500, then i do diag_mergeConfigFile, all fine, then i do Open Config Viewer and taken ACCESS VIOLATION

Exception code: C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at B3363F88

[mental river]

That sound file error. Do you get it normally as well? Or only after diag_mergeConfigFile?

[sharp ermine]

Only after open Config Viewer with your mod

[mental river]

I mean the error itself, not the crash. So you checked the rpt?

[sharp ermine]

What error i should seek?

I'd show you text from rpt. Pelase look above

#arma3_troubleshooting message

[mental river]

I think it is not critical error. Watching these errors (sound not found) time to time in my client log and server logs.

Sounds like the reference to config stuff have changed.

idk how to fix that

I'll check

[sharp ermine]

This is a internal arma logic error, the game want to get access to address in the memory which is forbidden for code....

[mental river]

I know. It's an invalid iterator/pointer error, most likely

[sharp ermine]

Thank you very much for answer!

[mental river]

If you do this before merging config:

my_cfg = configFile >> "CfgAmmo" >> "wf_ammo_Missile_mim145_1000" >> "missileLockMaxDistance";

And do this after merging config (don't open config viewer):

[isNull my_cfg, my_cfg call BIS_fnc_getCfgData]

Does the game crash?

[sharp ermine]

Repeat your code completely?

[mental river]

No

First code before merge

Second one after merge

[sharp ermine]

2 minutes please...

my_cfg = configFile >> "cfgVehicles";

OK

diag_mergeConfigFile ["d:\PBO projects\MODS\warfare_rhscup_cfgammo\wf_rhscup_ammo_mim145_s750\config.cpp"]

OK

"true" configClasses my_cfg

OK
Now i make edit in config.cpp, saving, then do merge, OK, then do configClasses, all fine, no crashes.

[mental river]

can you test one more thing?
run this after merge, then open the config viewer:

uiNamespace setVariable ["DBUG_configData", nil];

[sharp ermine]

Error in expression <able true;
    _ctrl ctrlSetFade 0;

No crash, but addmon generates error

Type is no number, number expected

[mental river]

are you sure you closed the config viewer before merge?

[sharp ermine]

Not sure. I switch to debug console in top menu.

Should i close your menu completely?

[mental river]

the config viewer must be closed

only opened once you run the code

in other words:

1. close everything except the debug console
2. merge config
3. run the code uiNamespace setVariable ["DBUG_configData", nil];
4. open the config viewer

[sharp ermine]

@mental riverworks fine. No scripts errors, no arma crush 👍

We waiting for mod update or must close cfg viewer every time?

[mental river]

well I don't think I can detect config being merged

[mental river]

btw can you give me the path to your config?

if you don't mind I want you to test one more thing

[sharp ermine]

Sorry, i'm noob. Do you mean path to file or what?

Or path to class

[mental river]

I mean that missleLockDistanceMax entry

the one you're modifying

[sharp ermine]

configFile >> "CfgAmmo" >> "wf_ammo_Missile_mim145_1000" >> "missileLockMaxDistance"

This is?

[mental river]

yeah

[mental river]

I updated this

can you test it one more time?

and plz let me know what it gives you

[sharp ermine]

What i should?

Ah, your old message... 🙂

Sucker Punch

@mental riverI got arma crash 🙂

[mental river]

you didn't open the config viewer right?

only that code gave you the crash?

[sharp ermine]

Yes

[mental river]

@quaint jewel any way to know a config is changed after merging?

[quaint jewel]

don't think so

[mental river]

@sharp ermine well I guess I have to write my own function for merging configs

to use instead of diag_mergeConfigFile

[mental river]

@sharp ermine Updated the mod and added a new function: DBUG_fnc_diag_mergeConfigFile. Use it instead of diag_mergeConfigFile to prevent crashes in Config Viewer after using diag_mergeConfigFile. It will appear in auto completion suggestions if you simply type diag_mergeConfigFile (or even mergeConfig) too. call it as:

["d:\PBO projects\MODS\warfare_rhscup_cfgammo\wf_rhscup_ammo_mim145_s750\config.cpp"] call DBUG_fnc_diag_mergeConfigFile 

[sharp ermine]

@mental riverCool!

[sharp ermine]

@mental riverWas ACCESS_VIOLATION in your dll, not in arma? 🙂

[spiral ermine]

Now this has become a recent issue basically my mic worked fine yesterday but now VON has been disabled however other people can chat in Voice how can i fix this

[mental river]

no

it was Arma

My DLLs are only for preprocessor and regex

[quaint jewel]

@bold monolith can you send me a RPT?

!rpt

[rustic eagle]

Arma RPT

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

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

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

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

[toxic agate]

Hello, quick question, everytime I load a game it crash, for example, I open zero hour, it crash, arma it crash, rally’s 2.0 it crash, don’t know what is happening

Can someone help me please?

[umbral narwhal]

Is it only games, and what sort of crash message?

[toxic agate]

It’s only games

Ist says: “an unusual problem happened please try later”

I wait 1 day and this continues happening

[umbral narwhal]

Steam maybe? Restart everything and try again.

[toxic agate]

I restarted my of 4 times

[mental river]

what crashes?

the game itself?

or your whole system?

My whole system

My pc stops working, and I have to restart everything so I can try again

[mental river]

could be a driver problem

or faulty RAM

I've personally had similar crashes due to those in the past

[toxic agate]

No because battlefield 1 works perfectly

And it doesn’t crash

[uncut trellis]

maybe gpu driver bug

[mental river]

then driver problem is my first bet

[toxic agate]

But arma do crash and other games

[uncut trellis]

gpu driver reinstall and in if that does not help the full reinstall for windows

[toxic agate]

Sure

[mental river]

if your GPU driver is new it's more likely to be buggy

sometimes they roll an update and optimize them for new games but break old ones...

posted this in #arma3_questions but just thought I'd repost

so if i put this setBehaviour "SAFE"; in the group init box it works
but if i put this setCombatBehaviour "SAFE"; into the same init box it doesnt work
description of setCombatBehaviour:
Sets an individual unit behaviour (main syntax) or a whole group behaviour (alternative syntax)
the alternative syntax is this: group setCombatBehaviour behaviour where group is the group and behaviour is the behaviour (safe combat etc)

so this should be working bc this is referring to the group, just to make sure I named the group and used the variable in the init box as well, to no avail

[mental river]

well why not just use setBehaviour then?

[turbid oasis]

I would but I think setCombatBehaviour operates on the same principles as setWaypointBehaviour because I can't get that to work either

now that I think of it it's probably just easier to put the behaviour code into the waypoint activation

[mental river]

well at this point this is a #arma3_scripting question so better ask there

[turbid oasis]

alright

Okay so I can get in and out of any vehicle just fine but for some reason with any aircraft or helicopters my game will freeze completely for about 2 or 3 minutes before finally loading me in all the way but I can get back out in mere seconds like any other vehicle

Any ideas anybody because it happens with everything vanilla and modded aircraft

[mental river]

you sure it's 2 minutes?

[light orbit]

i figured it out, bad mod i had left on and wasnt aware of

I have a trouble with diag_mergeConfigFile and DBUG_fnc_diag_mergeConfigFile.
After those operations my function which defined in CfgFunctions appeared in FncViewer, but when i start a mission and do diag_log TAG_myfnc then i get 'any'.

diag_log format['WFMD_fnc_Mim145S750AAGuide %1', WFMD_fnc_Mim145S750AAGuide]

Bad setPos 0,0,0 on unit 14833624100# 25: helper.p3d
"WFMD_fnc_Mim145S750AAGuide any"

So hello i have an issue that whenever i try to join Olympus 1 and click on a slot to then join the server my Arma freezes my discord crashes my TS crashes i go 5k MS and have to restart my PC. Anyone got a solution for this?

[burnt imp]

If the problem only occurs on that server, you should ask the admins of the server for help

[misty brook]

I've done that

They tried helping me with what they could

Nothing works

Currently reinstalling the game

See what that does

[burnt imp]

Hopefully that does it. If the problem still occurrs but you can access other servers okay, the next step it to get the error log rpt and somebody smarter than me might be able to help

[misty brook]

We'll see if anyone here respons to my thing haah

Thanks tho

[mental river]

Function viewer simply loads the file. It doesn't mean your function is actually defined

hi

i am getting 5 fps in arma 3

normally i am getting 90-100

[bronze river]

so what's the issue here?

[vale cargo]

low fps

[bronze river]

because?
try checking ur taskmanager to check if there's any app that eats the ram or using high cpu usage
