what doesnt work in mp?

cobalt lark
fervent spruce
#

Ah, not aware of any efforts to make that mp capable

cobalt lark
#

You cant play with friends yet its sads lol

fervent spruce
#

shouldnt be hard to do, but for the community to do it we'd need the source files

cobalt lark
#

I heard its likely in the works when i first asked

#

I see

#

Im no modder or smarty pants xD so idek how

fervent spruce
#

The main thing that could be a problem is the scripts, but I think those would still work? no scripting magician like some other peeps here tho

cobalt lark
#

Im not too sure either but ill take what i can get if anyone does it lol

#

Not that i know how to import scenarios into MP folder to play with ppl xD gn though!

fervent spruce
#

but ye its something BI would have to do

wanton halo
#

Just wait until September when AoW becomes free for everyone.

fervent spruce
wanton halo
#

Probably will be since it'd be free content by then.

solid pike

#

That'd be rather unfortunate if it was the case. :/

fervent spruce
#

^ At leats getting access to the misison files would be quite nice

cobalt lark
#

Hmm

floral tinsel
#

When AoW becomes free for all, that happens in Steam itself, so we may not have a game update at the same time.
However, converting its content from EBO to PBO in the next update after that should be feasible.

Hey, where can I find the original pictures from the gallary?
(Yes, I paid for the dlc)
I am looking speciffically for the Artwork called "End Times", by Kiko Mazar.
I plan on using is as a wallpaper because it's fantastic.

#

Question about the dlc. Why are there seperate prices? Is it for donating more? Or you'lle unlock something?

queen schooner
#

its for donating more if you wish

solid pike
coarse orchid
#

PLEASE EVERYONE CHECK THIS OUT THE SERVER OWNER IS STEALING MONEY FROM THE CHARITY CONTENT!!!!

visual jolt
#
  1. Fix your keyboard to unstuck Caps Lock
  2. Describe the issue more precisely. They won't/can't steal the money for the charity, although this looks like a violation of Arma 3's monetization rules

#

Sorry kinda love typing in caps. lol but i will soon as i have time to get it all typed out. @visual jolt

#

Is it possible in any way to apply the texture of an already existing flag to the flag coffins and folded flags in the objects' init? I tried setflagtexture and forceflagtexture to no avail

#

Or do they require new textures?

visual jolt
#

IIRC they're new textures

trim hare
spring hollow
#

I think they are implying that they are locking content behind a donation wall

trim hare
#

Yes. Which is allowed

spring hollow
#

Is it? I thought that was like the 2nd issue right behind mods.

#

Or was it just assets that give peeps advantage?

trim hare
#

you can paywall. But you can't give gameplay advantages for money

spring hollow
#

Ah

queen schooner
#

does camouflage count as gameplay advantage?

trim hare
#

In a gamemode where staying hidden doesn't matter? no

spring hollow
#

And + they are suits, worse case they blend in with the house osint color.

queen schooner
#

it was more of a general question
what if a Koth server has ghillies available for everyone but unless you pay they are bright red?
just hypotetical thinking
it sounds insane

spring hollow
#

I think it would be case by case.

trim hare
#

that sounds gameplay affecting.
Ghillie only for paying players on a gamemode where hiding is important

coarse orchid
#

In our server being blacked out at night is big advantage since most new players and other players forget NVGs and it help you hide in plane sight or dark corners of the map. But pretty much all black gear is hidden behind a donor wall including the black mk1 @Sabra One#9463 @queen schooner

queen schooner
#

wouldn't be a fan of that tbh

coarse orchid
#

@queen schooner yea none of us are. But main thing we are pissed about his the owner using charity items as incentive to donate to him and not the charity..

#

Like all proceeds should go to the charity cause in first 5-10 days every month me and the server donate more then enough for the server to stay up. But he’s saying it’s all to keep the server Afloat

queen schooner
#

if I were you I wouldn't be interested in playing in a group so centered around cash like that

tiny pier
#

Pay one YT streamer to play on your server, and you get 50 underaged whales in return.
Nice way to make a profit

Art of war mp art museum mission when

floral remnant
#

I wonder where the map is in the files and if it would violate ip if I made it a workshop map. Nothing from the scenario, just the map

odd sandal
#

Yes, it would be a violation

#

the map is Altis.

floral remnant
#

Really? Because the loading screen, surrounding buildings, and museum are all unique

crude turret
#

Plus, the SP campaign missions all have unique loading screens, don't they?

floral remnant
#

I thought they all said altis or something, but aow had amsterdam. Ill poke around with a singleplayer menu or something

crude turret
#

Altis salt flats, yeah

floral remnant
#

darn :( wouldve been nice to have a new environment. Gotta work with what you got tho i guess

odd sandal
#

It is quite a small charity DLC after all.

floral remnant
#

yeah, and it is worth every penny regardless

cobalt lark
#

Atleast we've been promised the entire mission ona near 1:1 ratio (i think?) will be mp eventually lol

fervent spruce
finite tendon
#

It's literally just a bunch of structure objects placed down on the Almyra dry lake and a custom loading screen. Literally anyone can make it

floral remnant
#

I don't think anyone could, that certainly takes good knowledge of what's available for use

finite tendon
#

It uses mostly Tanoan city buildings, Livonian houses and industrial buildings

#

Not that hard to find in 3den. It's all under structures

cobalt lark
#

Everything that makes the musuem great

finite tendon
#

Well I was just talking about constructing the "map", cause that's what was being asked. I guess they'll provide it as sample at some point. Maybe when they provide texture templates for the new stuff

#

how big should the art of war folder? On our server it takes up 57GB for some reason, while on my PC its just 560mb and I have bought and installed

visual jolt
#

563 MB my folder says

unique comet
#

55mb on my server

floral tinsel
#

Both correct. The shrunk Dedicated Server data is indeed 55 MB, the client or listen server data is 563 MB.
57 GB is very wrong 👀

remote gazelle
#

Last week I ran a mission on a dedicated server, using the AoW coffins draped with the flags.
In editor I set them to the UK flag, in local SP/editor MP testing it worked as intended, however on running the mission on a dedicated they switched to the US flag.

Is this a known bug?

Testing this in editor using setobjecttextureglobal and referencing the UK flag works.
Doing this in zeus on our server, executing the script did not work.

floral tinsel
visual jolt
#

expression = "_this setObjectTexture [2,_value];";Do those expressions in the attributes, applies to who in general? I think this is just the issue

calm jay
#

Aye, it should setObjectTextureGlobal over there (like other custom textures attributes). Add to the list

celest tiger
visual jolt
#

Nada, the issue is just explained above

celest tiger
#

Ah.

#

If I'm correct to simple objects aren't able to run scripts correct?

#

If I set a vehicle to simple object and select the vehicle appereance it doesn't save it.

visual jolt
#

Objects don't run scripts, scripts affect objects

#

And if it's correct, it seems like an issue...

For those of you waiting, the most relevant Assets from Art of War DLC now have PSD texture templates available on https://store.steampowered.com/app/390500/Arma_3_Samples/ (Dev-Branch for now!) - kudos to @sudden kiln and @rare rover AoW
A Community Wiki page with all gallery texture paths is also due soon.

Steam
Arma 3 Samples

Formerly part of Arma 3 Tools, this application contains all necessary samples to get started with Arma 3 content creation. The collection covers a broad spectrum of topics, from scenario design to mod making. Along with every sample comes commented code and relevant documentation to allow you to understand how they work.Note: These samples are ...

the ''make art not war'' is wrong

it should be

make art out of war

queen schooner

its from make peace not war
and your phrase has a completely different meaning

sheesh i was joking

floral tinsel

#

Yasss, thank you!

cobalt lark
#

So if we have a picture frame or anything really n input the script code as displayed in the wiki link we too can recreate the masterpiece for mp use?

#

Aside from no voice lines n mini assets?

visual jolt
#

wdym?

cobalt lark
# visual jolt wdym?

The wiki link is all scripts to each pictures paa's, im asking if we have the AoW picture frames and input the code into the init the paa's will show?

visual jolt
#

Still kinda hard to understand. If you meant to say you need the script to use, just use setObjectTexture

#

Or attribute of the frames object

cobalt lark
#

Is that in the attributes part of the objects?

visual jolt
#

I don't remember if there is but there should be

cobalt lark
#

I see

#

Is there a way to fix the roof texture of the gallery?

odd sandal
#

how is it broken?

#

though as user you cant do anything about such things

spring marten
#

When you place it through editor the roof is missing a texture on the outside

odd sandal
#

its not meant to be viewed from outside

delicate cobalt
#

Whats the different on the 2$ - 5$ and 10$ art of war pack?

pure lance
#

The price.

delicate cobalt
#

lol

pure lance
#

You can choose how much you want to give to charity

delicate cobalt
#

That part is smart, used 3 days looking for differences, lol

pure lance
#

I suggest you buy them all just to be sure

delicate cobalt
#

Almost did once 🙂

pure lance
#

😄

delicate cobalt
#

Then I tought, the most expencive must include the other 2 so used more time looking

pure lance
#

that's a sound logic

odd sandal
#

well it does include the donation amounts 😄

#

so yes

#

Out of all of the art that I saw, the robots and the injured person is what really makes me intrigued

#

Where there were people dragging away an injured soldier from robots, and the quote was something like "are these AI solidgers observing the international humanitarian law or is this a programming error where they are about to kill any second"

odd sandal

Doggo is your friend

id love to have these robots in game 😄

@odd sandal thanks

ive gotta say, kudos to everyone involved in the art of war stuff. i really loved wandering around the museum looking at all the art - the attention to detail was incredible, it felt like a real exhibit i would have gladly paid money for.

#

Would be good, Shame my computer failed to run it smooth 😦

#

I wanted to see if I could view the art and then get out and play GTA outside of there 😦

Just came in and visited the exhibits, kudos to everyone that worked on it, great stuff.

What the hell?

#

I just got Art of War for free apparently when i was playing around in the editor, got a notification "Thank you for buying Art of War"

#

has it gone free?

dark lance
#

i got the same, went to steam and looks like it is free now

trim hare
#

It was announced about one year ago, that it will go free after one year

dark lance
#

oh, one year ago werent playing so it explains all

floral tinsel

Yes, this is correct and planned. Full announcement today! AoW

#

so uhh how can I get this dlc? it's not downloading on steam

visual jolt
#

You don't, you already have the file

keen bluff
#

it also shows in the launcher that I don't own it and the Cultural Properties mission is greyed out, indicating that I need to purchase the DLC

visual jolt
#

Check if
Steam > Account Details > View licenses and product key activations and if AoW exists there

keen bluff
#

nope, not there

visual jolt
#

Try to get it on Steam once again

keen bluff
#

how?

visual jolt
#

Just click the green button

keen bluff
#

yeah it isn't downloading

visual jolt
#

Once again it won't download anything

#

If it doesn't say “you got the product!” or something similar, it failed I guess

keen bluff
#

the dlc page in the launcher still says 'not owned' on the dlc

visual jolt
#

Try to relaunch Steam as well?

keen bluff
#

I did that too

#

but no-go

worldly agate
#

Killed the steam process?

keen bluff
#

yes

worldly agate
#

Then restart computer

keen bluff
#

doesn't work too

floral tinsel
#

That's odd, everyone should own it by now without having to do anything. Please can you contact our support, so we can try to see what's going wrong? https://support.bohemia.net/

keen bluff
#

I'll see if validating the game files helps first

@keen bluff can you send me your latest Arma RPT log? Just dragndrop into my DMs.

!rpt

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.

keen bluff
#

done

trim hare
#

Thank you.
That's really weird everything seems to be fine..
Try verifying your game files in steam.
When you contact bohemia support please also include a link to your steam profile so they can check if there's something wrong there

#

OH. Maybe..

#

Your log says art of war is not installed, which doesn't make sense as it's supposed to be installed by default too

#

Ah nvm, it's definitely there.. but steam thinks it's not.

In Steam DLC settings you can disable some DLCs, make sure it's not disabled there

#

Select Arma 3 in steam, and scroll down, on the right there youll get the DLC list that lets you open that window, make sure the AoW box is checked

#

this tab controls the downloading of the files but should not affect licenses associated to the account.

#

But maybe it will help him blobdoggoshruggoogly

floral tinsel
#

We think it's nothing to do with local files or client settings. Somehow your account does not own it and it should. Best will be to contact our support with proof of A3 ownership (so they can match it to a specific package of owners in the back-end).

drowsy haven
#

yeah, it looks like missing license issue to me.

keen bluff
#

I’ll see if I can get the DLC on another computer

keen bluff
#

yeah, I still cannot get it thru my other computer

#

how do I contact support on this issue?

trim hare
keen bluff
#

what proof of ownership do I need to submit though?

Just your steam profile Link should be sufficient.
If you know how to get it, also your steamid64.

I don't know how I did it but somehow I was able to pretty much ace the Cultural Property mission on the third try (only reason why it's the third because I got killed by the AAF soldiers at the hatchback chasing looters and the other time I got killed by a pious warrior outside that little town)

kinda achievment spoiler ||the dead warcriminals inside the church was probaly one of the most interesting things in arma with the laws of war campaign ||
hope we find out how the stratis incident really occured

yeah kinda since they got "blacklisted" on altis and then the aaf saw a ghosthawk and sabotage happening on altis

but could be csat too yknow

icy patio

#

yeah thats why I kinda want disclosure on it but with arma 3 being in its "end-game" I think we will never get something

icy patio
#

well I hope for a DLC for ArmA 4 etc

austere lily
#

I dont think they will do the csat nato storyline

prime fossil
#

well let's just hope they dont go full COD by just naming it 'My Team' and 'Enemy Team'.

I don't think they would have dissolved. Especially, considering fact, NATO have done a huge blow on CSAT 4 years prior to Old Man, when they released Apex Protocol papers to entire world

cobalt lark
#

Has anyone made a co op version of the musuem yet?

bleak hedge
#

If some devs do another DLC using the Art of War model I would happily buy that as well. This model is great as it doesn't divide the community since all the content is available to everyone after some time but most want the content right away 😉 Besides it is cheap!

#

For example officially adding Female Units and/or other much requested features...

good for you!

Well ya but is ther somthing good well ther is map whit pictures that all ibknow

but it's like less than 1GB of content and it is frequently used by mission makers, I don't see a point not to download it when it's free and so small

True

cobalt lark
#

It just needs multiplayer

native stone
#

Multiplayer museum?

wanton halo
#

Probably referring to the Cultural Property showcase.

#

It could work...maybe? A few of the showcases from the Alpha do have a coop multiplayer version after all.

#

I suppose if someone was nuts enough to try they could attempt to convert it to coop.

This is what i tried. I extracted it to a pbo. Bit it gives me an error when i try to open it. And the files return null.
