[quaint cargo]

Sorry to ask but arer you familiar with a mod that is capable of doing this currently?

[vivid mantle]

Yeah I have my own that is not published yet but there is something I recall called milsim nametags or dogtags

[quaint cargo]

https://tenor.com/view/frodo-keep-your-secrets-alright-then-lotr-gif-12907121

[vivid mantle]

The one on the workshop is actually better than my secrets as it fixes the LOS trace bug 😉

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5F1513197BBBBAA7-MilSimNametags

[quaint cargo]

Oh wow thank you very much!

[foggy steppe]

Maybe playtest with devs today? 😉

[foggy steppe]

There is no info about -loadSessionSave param

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Startup_Parameters

@oak halo hi 🙂

Can you help us with that?

[oak halo]

lemme see that 👀

[oak halo]

added, thanks

(https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Startup_Parameters#loadSessionSave)

[steel yew]

Where do you go to type loadsessionsave?

[oak halo]

it is a startup parameter, Steam > Arma Reforger > (right-click) Properties > Startup parameters

[steel yew]

I take it it’s not possible if I rent a server through a server provider?

[oak halo]

you will have to ask them - you may be able to add these parameters to the shorcut itself

[steel yew]

I only own the game through Xbox series x

[coral magnet]

can AI drive vehicles on their own yet?

[foggy ridge]

yesn't

[languid oxide]

Can you connect to your friends lobby on combat ops on a private server?

[terse cloak]

@stray blade nows

[stray blade]

Huh?

[terse cloak]

U answered him in experiemental chat

[tawny vector]

Right click on a vehicle you've placed in (or as) Game Master and select "Choose passengers"

[winter pollen]

Has the gamemaster context wheel been fixed to where the stuff won’t disappear after a while.

[foggy ridge]

No, the GM radial menu still stops working after you use the command menu (the one with salute emote etc)

[winter pollen]

Aight

[unreal parcel]

I seem to get tired pretty quickly when I try to sprint. What gives? Too much weight?

[supple wigeon]

Probably, whats your standard loadout

[cerulean marsh]

whole serve is stuck on the support attack objective what is that

[unreal parcel]

Not sure about the loadout but I walked around with 28kg, but even with 20kg dude runs for 10 seconds then he has to catch his breath and I'm like, ok

[ancient rapids]

Why would my AmbientPatrolSpawnpoints that I added to my scenario not spawn in after this update?

only the vanilla ai are spawning in

[terse cloak]

Has new update fixed the issue with ammo in btrs or humvees dissaperin

[tepid torrent]

that was a thing???

[terse cloak]

yeah, its been a thing for a while

[tepid torrent]

i have noticed my boxes just disappearing out of thin air

[terse cloak]

box?

[tepid torrent]

.50 cal boxes

cans whatever

the thing with the big 50 BMG shooty thingos inside

[terse cloak]

yeah

[tepid torrent]

i had to keep reloading on one server because they would just go every 1-2 minutes

[terse cloak]

yup it has gotten me killed multiple times

[vivid mantle]

One of the devs told me that it will be fixed by the new garbage collector so I hope so. Havent tested yet though

[terse cloak]

Yeah

[twilit junco]

any chance Arma 4 wont need garbage collector because of better optimization ? probably none... 😦

[slow pagoda]

all games do that really

[vivid mantle]

Optimization is having a garbage collector 😉

[spice spear]

Anyone know to join combat ops? with ya mates cuz i can’t figure this out

[twilit junco]

well, not really, it's just a way around the problem - the possibility of leaving things in the forest, whether it's a vehicle or a weapon, creates more space for planning and creating strategies, for example i could leave extra vehicle with guns in forest knowing very well it will be super necessary in case plan A fails

[slow pagoda]

then there would be need to have some sort of stash system alongside it

so garbage gets collected as it should

and stuff left with intent would stick around for longer

[twilit junco]

for example if I run out of ammunition, I know that I can return to a certain place and take the weapon from the opponent, but now it's not very easy because both the body and the weapon will simply disappear

[vivid mantle]

Yeah I agree that it would be cool that things you don't want to dissapear won't. But it is not as easy as to just "optimize". There always needs to be a garbage collector of some sort.

But maybe some kind of stash system where you mark a certain entity not to be collected could work.

[twilit junco]

maybe at some point a system will be created that will freeze it, not delete it, thanks to which the server will breathe a sigh of relief and, if necessary, the items will be unfreezed when we want to use them

[wary raft]

In A3 we tend to virtualize objects far from players

[vivid mantle]

Not sure about Refoger but I think Arma 3 already did something like this?

[wary raft]

It won't eat performance if it's just a few entries in an array.

[twilit junco]

really ? that would be great for reforger to implement something like this

[vivid mantle]

I am pretty sure Reforger has something like this too.
At least in combat ops it does this (with vehicles and AI)

But on public servers garbage collector exists also for other reasons than just performance

[woven gazelle]

after 1.1 can't dissassemble stuff using entrenching tool... is it intended?

[magic pebble]

Yes.

[woven gazelle]

Can't be; it ain't even in the patchnotes

also

Fixed: Building and dismantling support structures in bases now has a real-time effect on the seizing timer
Which means dismantling enemies stuff should affect real time capture timer... i'm a bit confused

[lucid tulip]

yea its unfortunate. so much for being a saboteur

i hope that at least destruction of structures comes in the future. in arma 2 and 3 's CTI i liked being able to laser designate a bomb drop on base buildings to get rid of them, either that or marking them on map for arty barrage.

[vivid mantle]

They should add satchel charges then to be able to be a saboteur but make noise at the same time

[alpine raft]

Anyone know how to use the cycle waypoint function in Odin/game master enhanced? Doesn’t seem to want to work for me

[ancient rapids]

you can still disassemble your own teams buildings, I assume you're talking about enemy buildings?

[woven gazelle]

YUP

[tepid torrent]

this is a very valid point, you ither get a smooth experience where things will disappear or a realistic lagy experience where that vehicle will be where you left it

[snow kettle]

Is there some kind of issue with setting advanced keybinds? When I try to add a key, it will sometimes delete all other ones and sometimes not.

After checking the config file, there's definitely something going very wrong.
In addition, I have several entries for the same action now.

I think it might be because they belong to the same action? idk

[hollow patio]

Can anyone help me I'm running into nitrado server issues when putting mod i.ds in json file its saying I didn't do it right but I triple checked everything and the code it's self was fine so I just don't know what to do

[brisk jewel]

Does anyone having the same issue? Vehicles lose parts when drop down by GM

Gunshields on Hummvees, Minigun and seats on UH-60s all were missing

[spark axle]

Anyone having an issue in GM, when placing a spawn just forces your camera to the water, can't move or anything?

[exotic rampart]

has AI driving system been implemented in game now?

[terse cloak]

No

[chrome sphinx]

It’s in a pretty good state apparently according to their videos and dev blog

[exotic rampart]

but its not in a game yet, right?

[chrome sphinx]

Correct

[exotic rampart]

hmm, will see in next upd in 1 mounth, i quess

[chrome sphinx]

Probably with the next update since they just released a pretty good overall of normal AI

[vagrant lagoon]

is it possible for me to use mods in the newer resistance gamemode that came out?

like modded weapons and opticals?

[quaint copper]

Not by default, no, it would require a Patch that adds those weapons to the lists

[vagrant lagoon]

noted thanks good to know, and by any chance is there like quick FAQ for newbies in reforger so that i can know what i can do and whats not possible ?

i've read the regular FAQ

[quaint copper]

There really isnt one
Combat Ops Everon is new and its systems arent entirely understood by the grand total of 2 people who might be interested in modding it

[terse cloak]

there is the first resource video from bohemia, check that out and reading the discord works too

[vagrant lagoon]

wilco

[proper pike]

can anyone dm me an invite to the DarkGru discord server?

[azure ruin]

One of my players has an rdb mismatch. What is that again? And how does he fix it. Isn’t it that he hasn’t updated something?

[vagrant lagoon]

for some reason my arma reforger Volume sound is sounding like its 20% rather than 100% everything is sound volume low and i can even barely hear people or gunshots ??? like in arma 3 everything is like normal but arma reforger just volume low

[vagrant lagoon]

does anybody know why does my game sounds low ?

[fallen trellis]

Dose anyone know how to fix Kick cause code: group=3 'BATTLEYE', reason=1 'CLIENT_NOT_RESPONDING' I uninstalled the game and now every time I join it loads then kickes me out in like 20 seconds

[winter pollen]

If you have headphones, turn up volume. If not, TV/ monitor or whatever volume is probably conflicted with game volume

Also make sure reforger volume settings are right

[vagrant lagoon]

ye everything is at max, checked settings in control panel etc.. everything is normal, : / i just dont know what can be making reforger sound so low

[winter pollen]

Since you are on pc, maybe check deeper in settings.

[vagrant lagoon]

deeper on what? where are these settings?

[winter pollen]

Settings of the computer

Volume wise

[vagrant lagoon]

ye everything is good there : /

[winter pollen]

Well idk, maybe it’s a volume bug or reforger doesn’t want to work

[willow pelican]

issue with the red dot? any fixes?

[gaunt basin]

Will vibration ever be added for console

[light compass]

Will xbox and pc get fsr3

[jolly citrus]

I wonder if there's any incentive that could be added for people to talk more and actually join and stick with squads.

[regal turtle]

This is not communicated enough, but main advantage to stick to you squad is that squad icon shows your squad location on map.
But, yeah, currently there is no point to stick with you squad.

[tepid torrent]

when you are with squad you can live longer and get more kills

[unreal parcel]

I know it's fairly minor but are body ragdolls ever going to be further developped in arma reforger? Like, for example, and i'm sure most of you know this but bodies can be found in some very silly, 'rigid' positions - my question is like has this been refered to, talked of, or is it off the radar altogether?

[grim iris]

Looking at doing some upgrades to my PC. Recommendations on Intel or AMD CPUs for Reforger and then going forth to Arma 4?

[half locust]

#hardware_vs_arma

[grim iris]

I dont have access to that channel

[half locust]

#✔role-selection and set it up

[grim iris]

Cheers. It was under off-topic.

[jolly citrus]

Powerbits has been running 128 players servers for a while now, besides the ping ( my problem scenario ) the server works fine. Bohemia should look into upping their player count on everon conflict servers.

[unreal parcel]

I've brought up a somewhat similar statement to yours - on official servers, there's AI(spawned by living quarters and what not) , i'm not sure about the Powerbits server.

[jolly citrus]

[void inlet]

How can I spawn crewed vehicles in Game Master?

[chrome sphinx]

Don't think you can really

First google search if that helps

[terse cloak]

u can

[chrome sphinx]

not sure if this is correct

[terse cloak]

that post was 2 years ago

[unreal parcel]

I've been trying Combat Ops solo for a bit now. Sometimes I hear shots, but they're not in my direction. Or well, at least that's what it seems. What gives? Is there friendly AI and are they engaged with the Soviets?

[terse cloak]

Yes

[unreal parcel]

I'd kinda like a way to 'save game' in Combat Ops, is that possible? :p

[steady ginkgo]

Nope, bohemia doesnt added save system yet sadly.

[young grail]

When the AI is full fleshed out could one expect modes like solo Antistasi to be fully remade in reforger?

I'm also Interested on how an AI commander will function in conflict, and if it will order other AI units to attack, defend, supply, etc

[past kayak]

How could anyone know - we have yet to see anything yet in terms of AI commanding on any level. To your other point - funny that was all possible and more in Classic OFP CTI missions

[random cape]

Righto, the original Reforger roadmap mentioned only Move, search & destroy, follow, and mount... currently the roadmap only mentions basic commands, which due to console controller limitations could range anywhere from Ghost Recon: Breakpoint's four or five on foot (and only a 'cleared hot'/'cease fire' toggle in vehicles) to Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising'/Red River's command ring systems to something more complex, possibly a layered radial menu

Compared to Arma 3 and Arma 4, perhaps Arma Reforger may lack the ability for players to select individual AI units for commands and they'll be limited to group-wide commands

[vernal plover]

Question, I recently bought Arma reforger and am having some FPS issues!
tried a lot with graphic settings from LOW to HIGH, priority settings in task manager and so on...
fps stay at around 30-45fps at max
specs: i7 6700k, rtx2080, 32gb ram, resolution 32:9 at 1080p game is installed on an nvme drive

[foggy ridge]

Sounds about right, the steam recommended specs are way too low

[young grail]

True there's definitely been a bit of a downgrade in mechanics since OFP but I hope they'll surprise us with something a little more in depth then what's seen on the road map as they tend to add surprise/secret features and I feel like they'd approve upon the system further even after the roadmap. Time will tell however

[terse cloak]

Yeah that sounds normal

[minor spear]

Well, for reference, i have a 7800X3D, 4070 Ti, 32GB RAM, NVMe, and at 1440p with High settings (+some manual selections) i usually 70-100 fps

I suspect in your case your CPU might be holding the system back though

I don't understand what resolution you're playing at though, you say the aspect ratio is 32:9 (so triple monitor?) and resolution is just 1080p? You mean the game is just running at 1080p on one monitor?

I'd say check your GPU utilization, if it's less than 95% then your CPU is too slow, and you may want to turn down CPU specific settings a bit

[foggy ridge]

It also depends on whether you play vanilla or mods and what player counts and so on

[magic pebble]

and if you are in a town, or in the middle on nowhere

[terse cloak]

I have 3070 and 5800x3d and run 60 fps on 1440p but i think i ran like 70 fps on 1080 but i think i have a fps limitor

[twilit junco]

32:9 its causing this, so better play with FSR settings lowering resolutions if you want more than 30 fps

[twilit junco]

its probably 3840 x 1080 so yeah, games need render 2x as much than just one 1920x1080p monitor

[minor spear]

right, makes sense then

[vernal plover]

thank you! Welps its an older system and with that I bought the samsung G9 monitor so 3840x1080 at 120hz

thanks for all the replies! :)

[silk jay]

Will this game be ported to ps5?

[slow pagoda]

there has been no news on that so far

[silk jay]

Ok thanks

[timber roost]

Is there any possible way to adjust screen border on xbox?

@ me if you respond pls, I won't know to check my phone otherwise

[foggy ridge]

not in reforger, but you can try to look for overscan settings on your tv

[timber roost]

Dang, I appreciate it tho

[heavy night]

Has anyone else had issues with connecting to the servers. I'm getting an error message "Bohemia Interactive backend initialization error". Downloaded the game at 200 mbs/sec and can play any other game with low ping.

[sand verge]

I tried starting the new solo player mode Combat ops Everon, but this happens.

Also this is supposed to be a solo mission, why are there number of players written here?

[terse cloak]

Because you can play it in multiplayer with 5 other people

[sand verge]

@terse cloak Also this, I tried staring the scenario but this happens.

Oh wait nevermind I need to deactivate the mods first, sorry.

[steel yew]

Anyone know which mod had the road flares in it? Can’t remember since the new update having me go through my mod list for a server

[tepid torrent]

RHS i think, might be wrong though

[steel yew]

Have it downloaded already and dont see it.

[gusty prairie]

Disable your mods and then run it.

Oh jeez, sorry. I missed that you had done that.

Enjoy!

[sand verge]

No problem

[gleaming holly]

Project Redline - Core contains throwable road flares

[quaint copper]

Its not meant to be a solo mission, its meant to be a mission with 1-5 players

[quaint copper]

Remove your mods, you have too many loaded including many outdated ones

[sand verge]

I already did thanks.

Though the mission is a little intimidating for newer players, especially your location does not display in the map.

[wraith hatch]

Been getting back to reforger since some of the latest updates. What are some of the newer game modes. I'm pretty much just playing ranger bat and dark guru servers

[deep galleon]

there is a KOTH server from darkgru

[cerulean token]

Theres an event happening today with a new community-made gamemode

[wraith hatch]

Ahhh that's too bad, I'll be at work

[ivory solstice]

How can I use the new combat ops on my own server?

[idle agate]

What does request ai do in conflict? Are they just guarding the base or do they attack the next objective?

[stray blade]

Guard, and man static defences if they were placed

[idle agate]

Thx 🙏🏻

[foggy steppe]

Are you already start dedicated server?

[ivory solstice]

Figured it out already, thanks anyway 🙂

[foggy steppe]

#socials message

@signal spruce hi 👋

Is it a US server?

[signal spruce]

Nope.

[brisk jewel]

hi guys, after the update, seems the gunshield is gone, does anyone having the same?

[terse cloak]

probably best to talk on that mods makers thread if there is one.

[brisk jewel]

Sadly no contact info at all, started to miss the steam workshop, least ppl can leave comments and try to figure out things in the certain mod's page

[terse cloak]

whats the mods name?

[brisk jewel]

it's Hmmwv Variants Pack

and thx for your time to check that

[terse cloak]

i think there was one but i cant seem to find it

[brisk jewel]

That's ok, maybe it will be fixed soon, thanks again

[hasty sequoia]

So does getting vote kicked give you a ban?

[magic pebble]

Yes.

[hasty sequoia]

Thats so fucking stupid, im joining offical community combat ops servers and getting vote kicked immediately, i havent been in the server 5mins how the fuck am i supposed to learn to play?

like why the fuck am i being punished for doing nothing wrong?

[foggy ridge]

Some dudes just do it to keep the server to themselves or whatever

[magic pebble]

If kicked players didn't get a ban, then toxic players will join back immediately after being kicked.

[twilit junco]

Shouldn't something like this be reported? after all, it is not "their" server, but the official one and everyone should have equal access to it

[foggy ridge]

hmm, well I don't really know how to deal with an issue like this

this also happens on community servers but the players get deleted pretty quick

[old adder]

Hard to prove the intent of "privatising" an official server through votekick, except if they say it clearly

[foggy ridge]

what if they unionize

[old adder]

They could go on strike ... French blood in their veins 😁

[half locust]

it should be reported, and you should be reporting it

[thorn furnace]

I don't know if it's still on the cards, but BI were planning on offering in-game purchases of server rental. I imagine there would be less hijacking of official servers if it was frictionless for a group of friends to rent their own server for the weekend.

[foggy ridge]

I want to do something like this

[stray blade]

But to whom? Nobody polices reforger servers like dwarden does for a3...

[half locust]

that is indeed an issue, not sure if anyone even looks at server logs for the official servers \

[foggy ridge]

I can be the server police

[stray blade]

So you can report but no action is ever taken.
Best just find another server.

[foggy ridge]

it does not seem like a good use of time for devs/BI team to join servers to act on reports, unless the game collects data on how many kick votes a player has cast and gives them a vacation when it crosses a certain daily or weekly limit

if the limit is high enough it will never affect regular players

[old adder]

Seriously, at no point BI thought having someone handle official servers moderation could be helpful ?

[stray blade]

They can ban via rcon. And if its there for a3 why not ref?

[valid kayak]

On pc you can host yourself from within reforger. Not sure if this will ever work on console as this is completely different hardware. I tried hosting on pc from within reforger and was able to join with xbox through server browser.

@valid kayak @Steve-E

[slow pagoda]

do other games like Battlefield or COD etc have "on duty" moderators 24\7

[old adder]

There is a middle ground between "never" and 24/7
Honestly, I don't know, and it shouldn't matter
Since when other's choices dictate a company policy ?

[slow pagoda]

looking for how common such things are in games in general

[shut cosmos]

Yeah to whom? This is just like the Xbox players that have 20 alt accounts that they use to destroy MHQ, teamkill, or join groups to break radio packs. Who tf are we supposed to report that guy/guys to? He comes into every game, community or official and fucks around for 5 hours straight for 30-90 minutes each server, 5-7 times a week lol

I'll gladly pull the GUID's from my client logs and record video/photo proof if I can be sure some action was taken

Otherwise I, and I'm guessing many others don't/won't waste their time posting it here(maybe make a report a reforger player section on your site?)

Either that or enable yourselves some statistics so that you can see which accounts get regular bans on full servers and which xbox hardware ID they use so you can ban them yourselves

[frosty glade]

hey! wondering what this icon means, its not allowing me to talk over radio chatter... wondering why...any tips?

this is also me on the russian team holding a russian radio, still not able to use it.

ive tried turning it on and off, doesnt work, tried dropping it, switching it out, etc... not working either :(

[terse cloak]

You are likely using fia encoded radio thats why its not letting you talk

[frosty glade]

thats weird... ill try looking around the arsenal to find the russian radio.

used both modded and vanilla russian radio, if you click the full image, you'll see my cursor hover over both as i try to use one and it still gives me the red icon.

[terse cloak]

Maybe the modder set the radio wrong idk

Fia radio has the same description, so prollly it accidentally went there

[frosty glade]

im assuming this is a new bug and ill probably just sit tight and wait for an update.

[terse cloak]

Try contacting maybe server owner or whosever mod adds stuff, mods change things so its the best i can help sry

[frosty glade]

appreciate it!

[fresh lake]

HI guys, been out of the Reforger loop for a bit; did we get controllable AI squad yet?

[half locust]

no

[fresh lake]

ok thank you

[random cape]

You can check the roadmap every so often to see if AI Commanding (in the Air Assault section) has gone from white (not yet public) to orange/yellow-ish (on experimental branch) or from that to green (on stable branch)

[violet python]

hi newbie question, is IR illuminator possible with Reforger?

[foggy ridge]

yesn't

the engine does not support IR light, so you have to work around it, and each workaround has their own pros and cons

now this is just from the modding standpoint - I'm sure it's possible to do in the game if you have full source code access but modders can only modify what BI lets them

[hushed shoal]

anyone else driven up the wall by the time it takes to throw a dam grenade

i could cook a canned soup in the time this takes to chuck a pinaple

[foggy ridge]

you're not wrong

[vivid tundra]

Is the seize and secure server by iron beard gone? I can’t find it

Think it was called OSB-HUB

[stray blade]

OPS-HUB

like Operations-Hub

[vivid tundra]

Yeah I think so

The one that millers was streaming

[terse cloak]

nillers

[stray blade]

If you cant find it then its been shutdown i guess. Youd have to ask Nillers (Millers)

[vivid tundra]

Ok I’ll ask sillers

[stray blade]

Fine ask Yillers

[vivid tundra]

Billers?

[stray blade]

Yeah, Rillers

[terse cloak]

rizzlers

[noble plank]

I'm using this option "-loadSessionSave EveronCombatOpsBase" to launch my dedicated server however everytime i restart it does not load previous save. Is this because everon combat ops not supporting saving or something else?

[gusty lagoon]

Apparently from what I’ve discovered today that the “save” doesn’t really exist since it thinks you are on a server when you aren’t

I learned that the hard way spending 3 hours before logging off then coming back to nothing

[noble plank]

It is a server, read my question again.

[gusty lagoon]

My apologies, my interpretation was you were using a self hosted dedicated server and trying to get it to save. And so I was replying from what I’ve looked up only certain providers seem to be truly passing off as a server to the game client since it appears to not be recognizing saves at all.

[noble plank]

Self hosted and dedicated are mutually exclusive. Therefore there is no such thing as "self hosted dedicated server". It is hosted on my machine, but it is a dedicated server. Basically the same thing as what it would've been if you were to buy a server from a provider. I don't think there is a single provider that would not be running a dedicated server so your comment about some not passing off as a server does not make sense. What is more likely to happen is them not allowing access to certain folders or launch parameters which would not allow you to manage saves how you want.

that is of course self-hosted in gaming context

since it means you are hosting a game using an in-game option which is different from a dedicated server

[gusty lagoon]

Fair enough I guess. Again, sorry for the confusion. I’m not the best in knowledgeable-ness around servers, I’m just ticked that my progress doesn’t save.

I’ll try to explain what I meant by “self host dedicated”.

I was under the impression that just clicking the host button creates a local hosting service/server, so what I thought from your comment was is that you had a separate machine in your house or you were separately running a different hosting account therefore creating an independent server from yourself, hence “self host dedicated”.

If I’m sounding like an idiot I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to start this whole conversation based off that. Sorry

[noble plank]

All good, btw don't take my answers as being annoyed, i like teaching stuff.

When you use the host button in games that provide it, it means you are the game server and a player. When you use a dedicated server it means server is dedicated to only hosting.

When it's a dedicated server it's basically a command line, no need for GPU or an account (unless the game requires one for hosting) etc

Of course all games handle things differently but that's the general idea. When you say dedicated server it means a completely different process running only for hosting which is basically how almost every server is going to be hosted, including official ones.

[gusty lagoon]

I’m glad you aren’t upset/annoyed then!

Ahhh okay. That makes a lot more sense now. Definitely see where I got mixed up/wrong.

[gusty lagoon]

Oh okay. Now I’m seeing it, I really appreciate you explaining it seemingly pretty simple enough for me to understand!

[lucid tulip]

is there any plans to fix stick and throttle interfering with reforger mouse and keyboard? when they are plugged in i cannot drag and drop items in inventory

[narrow chasm]

What is a good way to get ahold of someone to try and get some simple re skins like getting the task force mattock plate carriers and belts in tan where the multicam is, or is that a tricky task because you gotta find someone who wants to do it? I know licensing and stuff can be tricky so idk how to go about it or if there is a website people go to?

[gusty lagoon]

Does combat ops not allow mods?

I’ve tried to load in with “Where am I?” Several times and it refuses to load

[whole plover]

Idk your setup but I have a dedicated server running combat ops - erveron with mods and dont have any issues.

Id say check when the last update for the mod you are trying to use was. Maybe its out of date and doesnt work with v1.1

[gusty lagoon]

It may very well not work, will have to check the last update when I’m back on my computer. Glad it works for you though! It’s incredibly frustrating because everything about this mode seems broken on my end, saves don’t work yet and mods don’t seem to work yet either

[whole plover]

Yea saves not working yet is a bummer. At least there is only 4 objectives lol. I hope they add a save function in the near future though.

[half locust]

#creators_recruiting

[versed sphinx]

Is it version 1.1.0?

A lower version won't work with reforger and check if you don't load the old one

[gusty lagoon]

Yeah, that’s the mod version I’m on

[noble plank]

I don't know about "Where am I" but i'm using https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5CAB06A845A6DC18-UnitsMapMarkers and it works

If it's not loading it most likely has something to do with your configuration. Do have it in your .cfg, are you loading .cfg with launch parameter, is the mod you are trying to load in the addons folder of the server profile etc.

[gusty lagoon]

No idea what that is to be fully honest. I just downloaded it off the in-game workshop over a year ago, updated it recently when I wanted to use it for Combat Ops, and it never has worked so far

[noble plank]

Sorry, i assumed you were using a dedicated server, are you hosting your game using the in-game menu?

[noble plank]

I tried to use the in-game play to see if "Where am I" worked, it also did not work for me. Use the mod i linked you, it works.

[gusty lagoon]

It’s all good! And yes I am hosting using the in-game menu, I’ve also tried just playing “regularly” via just starting the scenario

[gusty lagoon]

Roger that, I’ll check it out when I get off college and let you know how it works out!

Quick question though, does this also show your teammates if I have friends joining with me?

[noble plank]

Yes

I'm assuming you don't want that since you asked

[gusty lagoon]

Yes and no, but it really doesn’t matter with combat ops since it isn’t PvP

[flint dragon]

NETWORK (E): RplConnection::ValidationError remote script source code checksum does not match! local=0xF2228018B970FF6E remo
te=0x5A47ABF0B0841696

what does that mean?

me and my buddies cannot join our server... it loads but suddenly gets us kicked back at the main menu

[wispy hedge]

can someone help me with putting addons folder in a diffrent location?

[noble plank]

Make sure both server and client mods are updated

[noble plank]

You can use symlinks.
Here is also a tool that'll integrate it into windows
https://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/linkshellextension.html

[noble plank]

Another option is this
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Startup_Parameters#addonDownloadDir

[wispy hedge]

i have read most on this website but i don't get it... wheream i supposed to add the text?

[noble plank]

https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/7D01-D2DD-D75E-2955

[gusty lagoon]

This worked! Definitely was just that mod

[wicked void]

Why am I getting a "version mismatch" for the a server and it won't give me any option to fix or revert it?

[terse cloak]

New update

[wicked void]

I know it's the update but why can't I join the server do they need to update the server? But there's people playing on the server right now that's what's got me confused

[terse cloak]

Update the game, if you cant then wait until you can

[wicked void]

I already did lol. I got the message after updating it says my game is 1.1.0.42 but the server is 1.1.0.34

[terse cloak]

Then you gotta wait till servers are updated to .42

[wicked void]

Ok hopefully they get on that lol. How are people on it tho are they on an old version of Reforger?

[terse cloak]

Because they didnt update their games.

[wicked void]

Ok

[mild sandal]

Yesterday I was unable to connect by hosting the session with a friend - some error with group, don't remember what exactly. Is this firewall or battleye issue? Another thing, we joined official server but idk how to become amdin to restart the game it was night and 90% of the mission was already completed 😦

[topaz whale]

Firewall is quite possible. I had that happen a week or two ago

[flint dragon]

why is this happening? I have mods showing up like this since latest 2 updates...also my server is showing internal errors since latest updates and cannot start after a certain amount of mods

[terse cloak]

prolly cuz those mods dont work

[flint dragon]

if you look them up they are fine

but once I download them they show up like this

[gusty lagoon]

prob bug

Also can anyone confirm that combat ops everon saves are truly fixed?

saw that in the patch notes they were

[gusty lagoon]

Also did they remove the intel locations? I no longer see the intel areas

[hazy sage]

Anyone remember a mod that was up before the update that let gm’s go invisible by editing your own properties? If this is supposed to be in a different chat let me know.

[terse cloak]

No, you have to find em from any base

[gusty lagoon]

So they removed the icons, just not the intel themselves? What I’m saying is on the map there used to be a bunch of map icons with “possible intel” and was asking it that was gone or just a bug

[terse cloak]

Yes, the icons have been removed

[gusty lagoon]

Dang, such a weird thing for them to add that and then fully remove it the next patch. Eh, doesn’t bother me that much now that saves are mostly fixed

[terse cloak]

Well you can still find the intel from bases, would be nice to know that

[gusty lagoon]

Well yeah, that’s where I would fine them before. I was mainly just asking because I didn’t want to go out of my way to search if if they were entirely gone since they weren’t on the map anymore. Though at least now I know to check them still

[deft isle]

Still not working, which is pretty lame tbh.

[gusty lagoon]

Yeah it’s 50/50 for me. It’ll load the save one time but not the next

[stray blade]

I tried loading twice and it worked. Only on DS tho.

[gusty lagoon]

Ah well that’s the problem then, I’m just locally playing it offline

Man this gives me launch memories where just about everything they released at launch was broken lol

[foggy ridge]

only on nintendo ds

[gusty lagoon]

[winged fractal]

Hey folks, has anyone come across either of these mods?

1. Bolt action rifle, maybe m24, could have sworn I saw someone using it
2. Proper direct fire AT, like the Carl gustav. The only AT I've seen is the AT4 and the sound doesn't work when you fire

[terse cloak]

Swedish defense forces or rhs

[gusty lagoon]

Honestly forgot RHS is in Reforger since they stopped posting on their YouTube lol

[sand verge]

Does anyone know if there is a EF88 or F88 in one of the gun mods?

[sweet flare]

Hello

Is there any drone mod available

Kamikaze drone or a drone with payload

[stray blade]

No

[slow pagoda]

no there isnt

[dapper veldt]

hi there,
Is Reshade is allowed in Arma Reforger Multi-Player by chance?

[stray blade]

Afaik no

[sweet flare]

Are there any modders

[terse cloak]

yes

[sweet flare]

I mean for mods

Making mods

Can someone make a drone that drop payload or kamikaze drone

[terse cloak]

not in this channel lol

[sweet flare]

Hello

I found in the workshop a test drone but how can i use it

[digital crane]

pretty sure one of the darkgru mods has one

[echo drift]

Hm... dafuq? 1217 servers on the filters, shows 0. No filters on.

[sweet flare]

Hello!
I have a question! Can someone make a list of good russia ukraine war mod for reforger!
Soldier, weapons,tanks...

[terse cloak]

you get a lot of moments in official where there is like 20fps and 128p is worse lol.

[foggy ridge]

achievable in what game mode and on what processor?

[magic pebble]

1v1 mode

[foggy ridge]

Everyone else stays in group menu

[foggy ridge]

right, that makes sense

even tho it's an edge case

hopefully conflict gets close to that one day

[ancient rapids]

Many players on my servers somehow got it into their heads that too many base buildings can cause the server to crash, or drop in performance. Is there any truth to that, or are they worried too much about nothing?

[foggy ridge]

there is some truth to that, if there's a bug in an asset then having more of the asset will increase the likelihood of the bug, but I don't know of any bugs in buildings (at least crash-level ones)

[ancient rapids]

Yeah afaik its only the barracks that spawn ai, which are a much bigger draw on performance (not the building itself but the ai it spawns).

[stray blade]

It no longer just spawns ai. You have to spawn it manually.

[foggy ridge]

we have had so many stability issues in the past that some people have grown paranoid

[stray blade]

Like the time everyone was paranoid that watches crash servers

[novel finch]

Is there somewhere showing how to resume the last session of the dedicated server?, like the last save made

If anyone knows, can you send me an example in photo or video? I tried the way a friend told me but I couldn't make it work lol, I'm kind of stupid

[barren solstice]

I keep getting connection backend

[novel finch]

But something happen ?

And need to restart the server ?

[eternal heart]

@west ether Best mod I've seen is the AI follow mod which allows AI to move with you in unison to bons zipties

[west ether]

Thanks man. Is it still working after 1.1? Haven't used it since before 1.0

[eternal heart]

Ive seen a few servers use it so i would assume so, but haven't used it recently.

[west ether]

Dope. I'll give it a look. Thanks again man

[eternal heart]

You got it bro glad to be of help

[tranquil jasper]

why isn't the arsenal box in combat ops arland a full arsenal?

[tranquil jasper]

like tf is this

1 page?? no M60? no smokes? no rolled-up sleeves? no scrim helmet? no tracer ammo? why's there a random SA-58 in there? where are the other ALICE webgear variants? no flak jackets? no medic backpacks?

[terse cloak]

Its a simple arsenal its part of the game mode

[magic pebble]

it's normal if you play as behind the enemy lines resistance in combat ops

[tranquil jasper]

ok but there definitely couldve been a little more than what's in the box

[terse cloak]

They arent an army in the woods, they are just a few soldiers who are doing a spec ips mission although an ma16a2 carbine should be addrd cuz thats what spec ops used

[finite turret]

It's 10x more than you get with A3 Antistasi. If it would be up to me, there would be less in it

[tranquil jasper]

whats antistasi?

[tepid torrent]

very good A3 gamemode

[finite turret]

Persistent rebel CTI for Arma 3 where you start as a peasant with basically nothing and have to gather/steal your gear.

[tranquil jasper]

cool

[terse cloak]

And then become a warlord

[finite turret]

TL;DR:
Be happy to have what you have

[bold comet]

Hello I don't have Arma Reforger yet but I got a question. Has there been any update whether Tobii Eye Tracker 5 will be supported? I did search and it seems last time it was asked regarding Arma Reforger was about 5 month ago.

[novel finch]

Is there somewhere showing how to resume the last session of the dedicated server?, like the last save made

If anyone knows, can you send me an example in photo or video? I tried the way a friend told me but I couldn't make it work lol, I'm kind of stupid

[terse cloak]

nothing has been said about it

[bold comet]

Allright thanks.

[bold comet]

Got a few more questions for Arma Reforger.

1. Is there enough players to populate multiple servers in EU or is it difficult to find somewhere to play?
2. Joining as a solo player, is it easy to find a squad with communication/teamwork?
3. I see a few complaints about netcode, is the game often out of sync or bullets not hitting?
4. It seems mods is a huge thing, do I have to manually find the mods before joining server, and is mods safe?

[tardy rune]

1. EU server do have lots of players, shouldnt be an issue. most Eu servers are marked as such
2. nope. best bet is to join a milsim unit, or you can go onto a realism server, they tend to attract that sort of crowd a bit more, find a group of guys who have mics and invite them to your squad
3. yeah the hitreg can be dogshit sometimes, just the way the game is at the moment
4. mods will be autodownloaded when you join a server, dont know what "is mods safe" means, if you mean can mods give you a virus or any sort of malware, it may technically be possible but its never happened before afaik and wont happen to you. stay to the main populated servers if youre really concerned about it.

[bold comet]

Thanks a lot for the reply, regarding 2, do open servers still feature a chat and/or microphone feature so its possible to try to communicate with others?

[tardy rune]

yeah every server has voip for close range local talk, radios for longer range, and a text chat with different channels. its definitely not impossible to get a group of guys working together, but conflict mode isnt really designed for it and it will just a take a little effort on your end

[bold comet]

Thanks a lot for the help I appreciate it 🙂

[terse cloak]

official servers actually seem to have communication on eu everon, like im suprised but the amount of communication is better than before but its not the best

[tranquil jasper]

what does it mean if I get this error message on xbox

not enough space?

[digital crane]

yes

[tranquil jasper]

damn ok

[fierce oar]

How to disable 3pp armavision on server level?

[tardy rune]

go to admin mode, open properties, change to where players cant use armavision

[dapper topaz]

Anyone know if ATiM- is working on updating the CRX Enfusion AI mod? Alternatively, anyone know how to contact him?
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5EAEBEE6267EE47D

[terse cloak]

yes he is

https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/1050433454388547644

[dapper topaz]

it really has made the game more playable ... kudos

[tranquil jasper]

why does my GM wheel on Xbox keep disappearing

really annoying that every like 15 minutes I have to relog

[foggy ridge]

I know it does it after you use the salute radial or my attachments radial. It's been a bug for a while.

[tranquil jasper]

damn ok

):

[half birch]

Will it be possible to add civilians in game master in the future?

[fallen prism]

why does my game emable mods itself

[agile latch]

There any particular place my group and I are supposed to go for the Combat Ops mission that has us looking for intel to turn in to the dead drop?

Like, is it just on a random Soviet body, or is there a set spawn location?

[topaz whale]

Normally they pop up on the map as time goes on as markers for possible Intel. Or at least that's what I see

They tend to be in tents or sometimes in buildings on bases

[agile latch]

Is that what the red !'s are? Things like the snip- Ah.. So not that then

[topaz whale]

I think they're red Xs or something similar that say Possible Intel. They seem to be random but maybe they're always there and the markers are just randomly assigned to intel pieces? Not sure.

[agile latch]

Hmm.. Alright. I'll just assume it's bugged then. We've been in this session for like, 8 hours and don't see anything like that at all on the map.

[topaz whale]

Oh it might be then. If you don't want to give up you can try checking the port at Morton or the office building at the military port on the east coast. Not sure if they'll be there or not but I've seen them there before

[agile latch]

Nah, I think we're ready to call it. We'll just come back another day. Thanks for the reply!

[agile latch]

We stuck it out. It was in a tent that was spawned for me, but not for them, at the port in Morton.

Thank you

[stray blade]

Red exclamation marks are points of interest. Places where u could find some stuff.

Possible intel markers got removed, but you can find intel in command buildings of any larger enemy base.

[elfin ledge]

Can anyone send me how this looks into their languages? For example, in spanish the factions, except for FIA are just named americans and soviets, but I think I saw an english screenshot where it was called "United States Army" and "Soviet Army"

[topaz whale]

Did they get removed in this last patch?

[stray blade]

Yeah, so it seems. Dunno if bug, but thats how it is now

[tardy rune]

i believe it says US Army and Soviet Army

[frigid ibex]

Has anyone else been having the same issues with resistance ops? Mainly Russian ai being way smarter than FIA ai. That along with a lack of communication from the ai, I drove to a friendly encampment only to be surprised by a large Russian force decimating the area, like come on, there's no radio chatter for reporting Russian movement? I understand that it's ment for teams and not solo, but as a solo the inability to use friendly ai to my advantage is very frustrating.

[terse cloak]

you cant guide the ai and where were you going?

[frigid ibex]

It was called point Olga, a friendly encampment around Morton. There was no sign the area was under attack so I strolled up, then got into a heavy firefight where the FIA did fuck all and died while I attempted to hold my own against the Russians who get rolling renenforcements for God knows why, I understand it if I was attacking because we are supposed to be doing hit and runs, but for a random Russian patrol to aggro on FIA and constantly get reinforced is bullshit.

The Russians should be able to be pushed back otherwise what's the point of encampments?

[thorn canopy]

are the Co-op presets playable with friends without a server, if so how many can join at one time?

[terse cloak]

there are a few combat ops servers available by bi

[thorn canopy]

im after the resistance one specifically, il have a check

[terse cloak]

yeah combat ops everon

[thorn canopy]

rip thanks anyway

[terse cloak]

no its in official tab

[vernal wren]

Hola
So a quick question about VOIP in Reforger - is there a way to reduce the audio compression that is applied to the direct comms somehow? It's fine on the radio, gives it that crunchy radio sound (plus the distortion) but on direct it's a bit overbearing and very unnatural. I understand why it is there but an option to reduce it would be very nice

[terse cloak]

will major bases ever be dynamic? i feel like one of the reasons conflict feels like the same everytime is that the major bases are in the same spacce

[sweet flare]

Hello!
Does someone now if there is a surrender animation in arma reforger or is there any mod

Is there any sort of drone mod currently in the workshop?

[sand verge]

Whats going to be in the next update for reforger

[terse cloak]

Potatoes

[vestal sinew]

farming update 🙏

[topaz nexus]

The spirits

[terse cloak]

Look at the roadmap for stuff that may come next update

[sand verge]

I have but its too confusing to me

[hallow slate]

Is there a any way to use CRX A.I?

[odd slate]

Rocket pods for the helicopters and ai driving are a good guesses

[hallow slate]

Or is there an add-on that can lower the ai shooting ability?

[magic skiff]

anyone having issues with night vision. after it updated?

[exotic marsh]

CRX is broken, and to my knowledge no.

[exotic marsh]

The Bon Action Animations mod has one

[digital crane]

i think gamemaster enhanced mod has the option to lower AI skill

[fossil condor]

WTF is going on with supply lag after the last update

its horrible, so broken

[wind crystal]

Hello, is there any kind of protection for items in the workshop ? Or anybody can just download and open it in the workbench and copy / paste everything in his own project ?

[foggy ridge]

any mod can be opened yes, the best protection against unauthorized distribution is a no derivative license

[sweet flare]

Thank you

[sweet flare]

Is there a drone mod to

Can someone make a drone like this. Its a kamikaze drone.

Looks cool and the people can use it against light vehicles

[terse cloak]

since there are no vanilla drone assets or like systems, i dont think there will mods of drones cuz you gotta make the controller and all the systems. and this isnt the channel for requesting stuff

[sweet flare]

In the eastern europea server

[sweet flare]

Okay

[half locust]

#creators_recruiting

[bronze raft]

Any one know the mod version to get dog_gear to work thank you in advance

[cerulean token]

Is PBS just that laggy or did the supply system get really borked ? Unloading and loading is like massively delayed, and supplies dont register for like 20 seconds

Server fps is good, no packet loss either

[shut cosmos]

Thats the way it is now lol

Although, it's more like 10s tops for me on official

[cerulean token]

[gleaming holly]

I noticed the supply unload/load delay with 170ms+ ping, it happens to me on most EU servers regardless of client or server fps

[terse cloak]

Happens on official too

[fossil condor]

of course it wont be as bad on official because they have a player count that is half of PBS, the game just isn't as enjoyable with 64 people compared to double, but then again it also becomes nearly unplayable, instead of pushing out updates with content, one major stability\performance update would be a lot more welcome by the community I think, but I may be wrong

[foggy ridge]

you're not wrong, stability currently is not very good due to random crashes coming from the engine

[fossil condor]

It honestly drives away people more than the lack of official content

But its 2024 and no one cares about optimisation anymore, its just the way game development is going, its easier to brute force everything and hope for the best

[vivid tundra]

Can we actually play tiny wars?

[ionic finch]

Ive tried looking around, but cant find anything about TrackIR not being supported. Then I found the todo list, input for TrackIR. Is it supported and if not, will it? https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Input_Manager

[terse cloak]

Its not supported

[ionic finch]

This is based on?

[wary raft]

On it not being supported right now.

[terse cloak]

Well its not being mentioned anywhere, and doesnt work…

Currently isnt supported

[wary raft]

PC exclusive things like joysticks or other additional input devices are not being focused rn.

I guess they might start working on them once they more or less are finished with the things from the roadmap.

[terse cloak]

Not that important features compared to the roadmap and would rather have stability than trackir. Like veteran said prolly will come later

[ionic finch]

Alright, thanks for the clarification. Tho there is still no offical about it.

[terse cloak]

May have been mentioned in a rfi

[copper hawk]

Is there any decent documentation anywhere about making a conflict mission in the editor?

[magic pebble]

there is a youtube video

[copper hawk]

I can't find any :(

[magic pebble]

I just cheked my watch history. I think the guy who made it deleted the video for some reason

[stable topaz]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh3-5b1QjcE

[magic pebble]

^ dis is it

[copper hawk]

thanks

[ashen crown]

how do you get someone banned from the game? theres this one dude that goes into servers with his friends, vote kicks out the entire team and then leaves

[terse cloak]

If you can clip this and get enough proof and names you can contact evan arma for it, if its happening on official servers.

[copper hawk]

Has anyone had any luck getting custom factions to work in Conflict? documentation for this stuff is so scarce it hurts nvm I'll just use an overhaul mod

[foggy echo]

Does anyone knows why FIA arsenal truck is now missing all weapons in conflict mode ?? Before last update it had all weapons now only has ammo for it, its something in config maybe ?, cause when i spawn it over game-master mode it has everything as it suppose to has.

[spark hound]

You must be at an FIA Ammo Truck.

[terse cloak]

thats not a thing tho

[quaint copper]

Yes it is

[terse cloak]

aah my bad. must have not noticed

[foggy echo]

i see, they look identical it seems

so its random spawn ? cause the last time it was arsenal truck not ammo truck in the spot i always pick it up from

[copper hawk]

How do I change/set default loadouts in conflict

[sweet flare]

Is there a Gore mod for reforger?
Like in Arma 3 Bloodlust?

How can i get the famous Z on the vehicles. For russia ukraine war mod

[tranquil jasper]

why was the greyzone thread locked?

[plain nimbus]

what scenario id do we use to get the tiny wars on a server?

[shut cosmos]

"{711374D757D30456}Missions/CAH_TinyWars.conf"

[untold shale]

#ip_rights_violations message

[tranquil jasper]

damn, ok ):

[elfin ledge]

We getting official nvg any time soon?

[terse cloak]

not in roadmap so no

[spark hound]

Maybe with crewmen uniforms idk.

[fossil condor]

Have the devs acknowledged anywhere the terrible supply lag thats going on?

[vivid mantle]

What does that mean?

[twilit junco]

mean you need to wait extra few seconds to see changes on supplies number, like loading and unloading takes much longer

[fossil condor]

sometimes up to a minute or more

can happen with small number of people as well as full server

wasn't like this before the last major update

[old adder]

If the bug was reported, they know about it
Afaik, there is no "known issue" list or "bug that will be fixed next" list, so they do not acknowledge anything (but that doesn't mean it won't get fixed)

[fallen prism]

bcs ive got reforger on xbox will i get the workbench if i get a pc?

[magic pebble]

no

You will have to rebuy it on pc to get it.

[haughty sail]

Hey guys, im in a base with 3k supplies but the car service is at 0, cant spawn stuff, anyone know why. Also i cant load supplies in a truck cause the command tent dont have supplies either

[terse cloak]

get out and back in and then also hq uses supplies from supply depots nearby so the the light vehicle depot may not access it but this update has changed the supply system so idk

[haughty sail]

That's very weird, thanks

[twilit junco]

in most cases you need to wait a little bit longer if its fresh build, otherwise its weird

[haughty sail]

In that case its the main base

[leaden whale]

Hey, is there any available MH-6 mod? Pref with benches to transport as many people as possible, I've seen some, but they're all down right now (from my understanding there was some problem with model licensing)

[rich surge]

So are people still reporting server issues

with Reforger?

[quaint copper]

Occasionally, yes
But it's better new than it ever has been

Server crashes are rare unless pushed well beyond vanilla standards, and overloaded with low quality mods

Client crashes are still relatively common, but there's measures to minimize the damages they do, such as restoring your location and gear when rejoining a server you crash from

[rich surge]

Might jump into Reforger

I was put off by the large amount of people reporting crashes after any serious amonnt of time in a server

Reforger isn't getting pulled when ARMA 4 rolls around right? it's going to stay available

[quaint copper]

Noone knows
It's only speculation right now, but the running theory is yes
Reforger will remain available, but Arma 4 will release separately, and all of Reforgers players will migrate, killing this game once and for all

[rich surge]

Eh they confirmed ARMA 4 was a different setting right?

Seems like Reforger can have a niche for anyone wanting to play 80's style like the original ARMA

[quaint copper]

The only thing we know about Arma 4 is it's name, and that all of Reforgers assets will appear in Reforger

[terse cloak]

nothings been said, quoting bob murphy: at this moment we cannot deny or confirm

[austere nimbus]

However, many of the environmental systems, assets, historical context, and modding tools and features from Arma Reforger will be redeployed for the next Arma installment, alongside a slew of extra content.
source: https://reforger.armaplatform.com/faq

So yes, it has been "confirmed" that everything you see in Reforger will come back to Arma 4

[tranquil jasper]

LETS FUCKING GOOOO

[terse cloak]

will there be different textures for when bullet doesnt pen? cuz if bullet doesnt pen, it still makes the pen hole

[rich surge]

How do I setup a respawn radio?

[terse cloak]

Drop it on the ground and deploy it by looking at it

[ruby cedar]

how can i draw lines on the map for triangulation?

[rich surge]

I drop it and it only appears as a the actual radio part you hold in your hands

Not the backpack and I can only pick it up

[terse cloak]

you drop the radio backpack

you are most likely dropping the hand radio

[rich surge]

How does "Reconfigure Relay" work?

I'm at the objective but it says it's "DONE" and I cant' do the action, despite the fact it's still marked as an undone objective on the map

[terse cloak]

you just go there, look at a gray radio and reconfigure it

[terse cloak]

its done then

[rich surge]

Weird, it's still on the map

[terse cloak]

thats a bug

[rich surge]

Still only the handset

[terse cloak]

you dont have a radio backpack

[rich surge]

Ah

[foggy ridge]

is the texture and mesh budget dependent on video memory? I've noticed upgrading from 10 to 16 GB video card slightly reduced the amount of texture detail issues (neither card was fully utilized memory-wise according to task manager)

[rich surge]

So how exactly does the FIA in Conflict work?

Do they respawn/attempt to recapture locations like the other team or are they purely non-respawning defenders

[stray blade]

Purely non respawning defenders.

They do respawn at supply depots.

They wont recapture bases

Thanks

[shut cosmos]

Speaking of everything currently in Reforger going to A4, when are we getting head look animations added to the new cars? Very robotic compared to the other vehicles, feels like I'm riding around with mannequins.. Or driving a scuffed modded car

Better question, why were the new cars added to the game without the head look animations every other vehicle has?

I don't see any reason why we should lose the immersion on civilian vehicles

[magic pebble]

realism. have you tried moving your head inside a civilian car? It's literally impossible

[rich surge]

Do I not get an armored Jeep in Combat Ops Arland?

The briefing mentions one but I can't find it in my starting area (and all the objectives are a long walk away)

[terse cloak]

you get a jeep with a 50 cal spawning next to it but if you are playing on a official server some one may have taken it

[rich surge]

This is solo

[terse cloak]

should be near the spawn

[rich surge]

Yeah I can't find it, just gonna go onfoot again

[hollow salmon]

Could anybody help me figure out the guidelines or if you're even allowed to set up a patreon to help support a team get mod tools I.e Substance painter on steam? in order to make a rather large mod for Reforger. also have no idea where to put this question other then maybe here.

[sweet flare]

Will reforger die if arma 4 comes out

[magic pebble]

depend on the stability, and the experience that a4 will offer on launch

[sweet flare]

I wish that arma 3 is playable on xbox because they have so many mods. Expecially The russian ukrain war

[rich surge]

Can you destroy constructions in bases?

[terse cloak]

No

I mean you can destroy sand bags

[quaint copper]

Only if you capture the base first

[rich surge]

Was wondering

It might be cool to add that if you say, blow up a base wih Helicopters so how you cap a base matters

Wanna steal all their medical tents and living quarters they already built? better not wreck it

[quaint copper]

Theyre adding demolition bricks in the future, so perhaps we will get that

[tepid torrent]

you must be wearing your seatbelt wrong, it should not constrict head movement 😆 , but what would i know, i just drive on wrong side of road while also being upside down at the same time

[haughty sail]

Is it possible to roll like that in Reforger ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdUK3mfLSx8 at 2:00

[terse cloak]

yeah turn the hand brake off

[haughty sail]

I did, but dont manage to control it when landed

[terse cloak]

dcs is much more complicated

[haughty sail]

but on dcs its possible, maybe on arma its not

[waxen lodge]

Hi guys, is there any mod similar to breaking point, or exile?

[quaint copper]

No

[tepid torrent]

this would be great, but due to reforgers currently inferior collective control it would be impossible, but if they implemented a more advanced system i think this could 100% be achieved because of the realistically simulated wheels on the Mi-8 helicopter currently

[marble geode]

Question for anyone willing and or capable of answering, how does one fix an issue with joining a modded server? Once i get into an open slot, and have all the mods downloaded, i end up eternally stuck loading with out any progress past probably 90ish percent.

im trying to get into the Vietnam: Road To Saigon server

I'm new to arma and want to get into a server with more than 20 people to a team

[tall whale]

I'm sure you all get this question every day but I know the early access is over, have BIS made any official public comment on the ps5 release other than "soonTM after early access"? Please tag or direct reply I don't check here often.

[haughty sail]

When my friend join a server all the mods are downloaded at the same time and it make his game crash. Any idea how to fix that ?

[terse cloak]

They said they were looking into it but no other comment

[opal gate]

Is there any reason why Xbox downloads for mods is capped at 5 mb/s

[magic pebble]

Microsoft

[sweet flare]

Or the V

Is there a mod for chechnya and ingushetian soldier fighting for russia

Ingush or chechen soldier mod

Or flag

[topaz nexus]

No

[rich surge]

Ok just to make sure I should be able to load supplies Into the crates next to the main tent right?

Ok found out you have to absurdly close

[clear sparrow]

Does BI plan to release a feature to make Ai hold position, it’s very difficult without it.

[spark hound]

Defend order

[olive mantle]

What does Connection Timeout mean? Whenever I get it my game just freezes like it crashed

Also on modded servers it happens A LOT more

[clear sparrow]

Defend order isn’t as useful as hold position, defend order doesn’t keep the Ai exactly where I need them and sometimes they still just go and attack whatever nearby or far noise is heard

[past kayak]

AI needs a qualifier button. Much like the mod "Go, Go, Go!" for Arma 3 -sometimes you need the AI to just GO say if Artillery is incoming or a Fast mover. The mod just overides the Danger. Mode so that they dont play Duck Duck Goose when given an order. Danger in Arma3 was basically when the AI would go more autonomous making more of its own decisions apparently for self preservation but in reality alot of times it didnt make sense. Also ,it was very hard to Clear them of that state, basically they themselves would decide when a situation was "Clear" and then theyd listen to you again when back in Alert state.

[frank thunder]

Since the ps5 release is "being looked into" , will it also have the workshop implementation, just like the xbox version?

-Desperate ps5 user looking for a milsim on console

[foggy echo]

Is it a known issue when in gamemaster you control entity the camera turns automatically in other directions? This has been happening for quite a few updates. https://streamable.com/7gt6au

I suspect that the character still has some AI features, because if I leave the character motionless for a moment, he can pull out the compass himself.

[slow pagoda]

Nothing is known about that at the moment

Do the a.i detect you in the water as if your standing or prone? and if they do; do the a.i see you in the water as if its tall grass or no grass?

[versed scroll]

Is there a virtual arsenal like in A3 to showcase the vanilla gear?

[half locust]

no

[tepid torrent]

the closest thing you will get is bacons arsenal mod

[versed scroll]

How do I access it once I downloaded it?

[tepid torrent]

any arsenal will have it in action menu when interacting with it

[versed scroll]

Gotcha thank you

[topaz nexus]

There is ARU but sadly I haven't seen any activity from them in awhile

A shame really, the virtual arsenal is really nice

[tired mirage]

Hi I just got arma reforger, I linked my bohemia account and steam account already and whenever I try to log in the game it says ' Error, Something went wrong. Please check your internet connection and try again' when I clearly have wired 1gb speed internet
How do I log in properly and join multiplayer?

[terse cloak]

You dont need to login

[tranquil jasper]

why'd watershed get deleted? stolen assets?

[fast python]

is script mismatch a common issue when joining a server

[grim iris]

For those who play on PC, what GPU and resolution are you running? What settings are you running as well? IE Med, High, Ultra.

I am looking at upgrading from my 3070ti to possibly a 4080.

[foggy ridge]

everything maxed (except resolution scaling) on a 4080 super gives me 60 fps on 3440x1440 most of the time

playing vanilla you will likely be okay

[elfin ledge]

GTX1080 i7-7700k 16gb ram and i think settings were between mid and ultra mostly

Except for settings that just consume fps and provide little to no visual difference

which are on low or disabled

[grim iris]

Can you provide examples on what settings you lowered or disabled?

[elfin ledge]

cant remember exactlt but antialising was really cosuming

Basically play with settings and when you wont find a difference between two levels, use the lowest

[reef fiber]

Do you have a mod GUID for me, not sure what you mean

[tranquil jasper]

deleted off the workshop, also what's a GUID? I'm on xbox

[fossil condor]

update when

[copper oyster]

somewhere between tomorrow and january 1st 2028

[terse cloak]

2069

[odd ridge]

how is reforger for a person who just wants to fly a helicopter or just drop in and drop out for casual play for infantry combat or general flying?

[foggy ridge]

strong ok

[terse cloak]

reforger can be anything aslong as you have imagination

[odd ridge]

ok, then for public play, is there a strong population for that and if so, do I have to go through any hoops to get a helicopter?

[quaint copper]

Depends on the server, gamemode, and situation

If you play public GM, ask for a helicopter and hope you pass the Charisma check
If you play Conflict, then you have to be a high enough rank, have built a Helipad, and have the supplies to spawn it

[terse cloak]

in conflict you have to reach, sergeant, then bjild a helipad and then a heli, but please learn to fly first on private session

[odd ridge]

is there a offline mode to practice flying?

[terse cloak]

yes, you can

[odd ridge]

alright, when the game is on sale or later I'm a get it. thanks guys

[maiden sand]

This has been an issue for a loooong time. I am pretty sure it is known too. It's the AI components controlling the character. If you spawn in a hostile AI it will even aggressively aim at it.

[elfin ledge]

theres a whole ass tutorial brother, so dont worry

[tepid torrent]

i think it randomizes paint scheme when spawning them in conflict

[tepid torrent]

if the content and features in arma reforger is equivalent to a quartar of a pie, approximately how many pies will A4 be, honest question for devs

[foggy ridge]

the silver lining is that it's a good pie at least

[tepid torrent]

i need statistics, not flavors bacon!

[foggy ridge]

what do u need

[elfin ledge]

What is reforger lacking outside roadmap and when did it arrive into arma3

[tepid torrent]

how many pies arma 4 is

[foggy ridge]

4

[tepid torrent]

i need to know now bc i have lunch planned for when it launches

[tepid torrent]

honestly what i am hoping for

[austere nimbus]

I think it's more pies;

• SP campaign
• in-game editor
• more assets
• new terrain (?)
• improved GM
• more "modules" in Workbench

At least that's what I hope (and sort of expect), as these are things currently in A3 and A4 should at least meet that feature-wise

But no one knows, except for BI management the moment they think it's worth to release the game 😅

[stray blade]

Well tbf most armas, wothout dlcs shipped with two terrains one bigger and one smaller.

But for the rest, yes.

[acoustic shoal]

is there a way to stop the game from being so aggressive with cleaning up vehicles, bodies, and things dropped on the ground?

[narrow chasm]

Any idea of what the next update will entail? I’m hoping to see the LAV-25 soon

[elfin ledge]

I also wanna know this, I think it count corpses as npcs, of which there can only be X in the world

[terse cloak]

Maybe ai improvements but

[sweet flare]

Will be a sp campaing in reforger

[elfin ledge]

Hardly doubt it, given how the nature is to test the engine

[trail hamlet]

Any plans for drum magazines for ak?

[terse cloak]

There wasnt 5.45 drum mags in use i think, never even seen one. Just the 7.62x39 one

[frosty lichen]

Is it by design, that I cannot see myself in the map? I see no difficulty options for this. I'm a n00b.

[half locust]

it is by design, yes

[terse cloak]

but there is a mod to mark yourself on the map, i think its like where am i on the map

[elfin ledge]

you couldnt see yourself in A3 either without a gps

[frosty lichen]

That depends on server and client game difficulty settings in A3

[vivid mantle]

They should definitely add AKM to the game though...Damn I hope that will be the suppressed weapon for the soviets

[spiral minnow]

Joystick support?

Adds helicopters with no joystick support 🥲

does anyone else have the same issue i do where hitting helis with RPGs does 0 damage? I've hit so many choppers and nothign happens lmfao

[sullen path]

I think I read somewhere (probably on this discord) that BIS might consider adding more clothing slots in the future. Is there any truth to that and if so, do we know of any specifics?

[terse cloak]

Its known

Been happening for a while, an dev said rpgs should be more reliable next update

[topaz nexus]

RPGs rn are so unpredictable so that'll be nice

[earnest forge]

Does anyone have issues with the lighting in this game not letting you look outside from buidlings on pc?

Yes its a game issue

[earnest forge]

ok cool i thought i was going insane and coudln't figure out how to fix it

[wraith hatch]

Hey what's the best combo scenario+ mods to play SP with modern gear?

[rich spindle]

you probably mean the eye adapting effect, try to fill as much of your screen as possible with the window, that’ll make it easier to see out

[fierce oar]

How to convince a modder to make a mod for me for free?

[terse cloak]

have a 5 dollar coffee hanging on a fishing hook

[elfin ledge]

kidnap their dog

[spark hound]

Befriend them

[fierce oar]

But they are so unfriendly 🤔

[stray blade]

Make them friendly by force

[half locust]

modding is a free endeavor. If anyone asks you for money, please report them, because that isn’t allowed. On the same note, you can’t really convince people how to spend their free time no matter how much you try. And if you want to try, use #creators_recruiting

[fierce oar]

Is there any simple step by step tutorial how to create a new vanilla object, change its default properties, settings, save and publish to workshop as a mod?

[elfin ledge]

the wiki probably has that shit

Not in one tutorial but life aint easy

[fierce oar]

Tools life is ain't easy for sure😀

[haughty robin]

Start by doing your best to begin making the mod to show them you're serious.

Get a few assets out that you're totally embarassed by and that make the crowd go mild. Then do it again and get a bit better, again and a bit better.

And at this point you've probably made some small part of the thing you wanted that at least you can enjoy in game, but you want it to be better. So you try again and do something a bit better.

Then some people who really care about the thing start to notice and become fans, then you get a bit better, and the person you wanted to help still won't talk to you.

But, you keep on trying and making more things that are a little bit better every time...

...and eventually you've made the thing you want.

It might not be the thing that person would've made for you, but it's your representation of the thing you wanted and the purest output of your hands and brain

[fierce oar]

Yep, no other way, have to do it all myself

[eager notch]

When I take a shot, the map comes up telling me where I am. I have looked all through my mouse settings to see if there is some weird bind but all looks normal

[cursive relic]

Would it be possible to be able to choose on which drive the mods are installed?

My game is installed on my D: drive and mods on my C: drive into /Documents/My Games folder. I wish to set the mods installation folder on my D: drive

[slow pagoda]

there should be a launch parameter for that

[cursive relic]

Already on setting game files?

[loud ferry]

Is there a way to turn off the double tap on the toggle lean binds? I'd like for my toggle lean binds to be Q and E and not 2xQ and 2xE.

-addonsDir

-addonDownloadDir

Supposedly you only need to use one of them, according to a dev but in my testing I've had to use both(I don't use either anymore, using my NVME on C: for reforger and another 2 games I play often; I would rather the read speed and latency compared to my many HDDs)

[visual steeple]

Is there a way to turn in from the humvee gunner seat and/or a mod for it?

[slow pagoda]

unhelpful you mean? 😛

I can point the way

googlefu should do the rest

[tight ginkgo]

Is there any good tank/armor/vic gameplay in reforger? specifically multiplayer servers.

[slow pagoda]

there are no tracked vehicles, so it is more infantry focused

[tight ginkgo]

ok thanks

[tranquil jasper]

does anyone know if it's possible to remove a modded weapon from the arsenal?

I'm in a server that's set in the cold war, and we want to be able to use the loadout editor but one of it's dependencies is the m4a1 block 2.

[ancient rapids]

probably possible to do this if you override the us faction entity catalog config? I've been too busy to do it myself, please ping me if you end up making it, I need it for my 80s themed server.

[tranquil jasper]

alright

[lament halo]

thinking of buying reforger but waiting for AIs to be able to drive and pilot, is that possible yet?

[tranquil jasper]

yeah, the AI driving/flying update is coming out next tuesday after the rain

[topaz nexus]

When building destruction is added, with .50 Cal and 14mm be able to penetrate walls?

[quaint copper]

They already can penetrate some walls, id assume theyll be able to slowly chip away chunks of walls over time

[chrome sphinx]

Well do we really expect reforger to have that kind of destruction? I would honestly think it will be similar to Arma 3

[tepid torrent]

i do doubt it will be extremely detailed, but it will be much nicer than A3 as can be seen in the workbench

[chrome sphinx]

Was there like a thread some where showing of some stuff? Probably some assets already in the workbench?

[tepid torrent]

yep, especially vegetation asstes, possible segmented destruction, looks really great!

[chrome sphinx]

[violet lava]

Anyone know how to fix this? My GM is completely frozen

[digital crane]

[tight ginkgo]

Is reforger or a3 more popular? Just outta curiosity

[terse cloak]

A3

[fast python]

does anybody have a problem with the game crashing on startup ive tried verifying game files and redownloading to a different drive

[frosty verge]

https://steamcharts.com/

[tight ginkgo]

Thanks, I looked on steamdb and reforger just doesn’t show up. But also those don’t count the console players so the number is probably much larger than that, but idk by how much.

[finite turret]

Reforger is on steamdb as well as steamcharts

[frosty verge]

A3 has no console players, so at least this is an accurate number. Let's say there are another 30% on console for Reforger, Arma 3 still has like 10x more players^^

[terse cloak]

Bacon has pretty accurate stats and xbox players are same amount as pc so like 3k but this isnt accurate to this exact moment

[frosty verge]

Arma 3 is greatly played in closed groups and/or locally hosted, so those numbers doesn't matter really.

[tight ginkgo]

wtf I just checked again and now reforger is showing up. I searched so many times and ways and it just wouldn’t show up, weird. But yeah was just a quick question, thanks.

[terse cloak]

Yeah, reforger isnt currently due to not many a3 communities wanting to switch but probably will return to a3 style when a4 comes

[frosty verge]

Reforger is not an Arma game, more like a sidekick, it will never be as big as a "real Arma"

[terse cloak]

Yup

[frosty verge]

it's intention is more like showing people the new engine and give them the opportunity to make mods and stuff.

[terse cloak]

Some new players dont realise that

[frosty verge]

true.... that's why the talk about "switching from A3" is not really clever

[finite turret]

Reforger is by definition an Arma game.
Yes, it's not Arma 4, as the title obiously states it. But still.

[frosty verge]

all i try to say is, some people don't get what Reforger is meant to be 😉

[terse cloak]

If devs openly tell me this is a test bed and a first step to a4, i tend to think its a demo and with the amount of content it is that, i know that the game is going to die when a4 comes so would i spend the money for a mp game that wont have players in a few years?

But new players just see, THIS IS THE NEW DAYZ 2, and just buy the game to play that mod but then dont play anything else

[frosty verge]

really? DayZ has so many mods and mostly the same engine... do people really buy Reforger for this DayZ mod?

[finite turret]

Aren't you not restricting yourself with this form of thinking though? Afterall every game will die at some point,
If you for example but a game for let's say 50 buckeroos and you get 1000h playtime out of it during it's lifetime, at least to me that's a worthy investment.
Where else can you get that value to have fun for 5 cent per hour?
(excluding partial costs for electricity, hardware etc)

[frosty verge]

would't it be cool if Reforger will be merged into Arma 4 at some point after release?

[finite turret]

he?

[elfin ledge]

As a DLC, A4 will have way more stuff, but I want the reforger stuff to be available without ripping

So you buy reforger, you get reforger dlc on A4

[half locust]

ripping what sorry?

[elfin ledge]

The Arma2 to Arma3 thingy, where people rip A2 content to port

[frosty verge]

i mean, why would Reforger "die" if the content will be available in A4 in the future? give ppl who own Reforger a discount and fine

[terse cloak]

well i think about a game and if i have a previous installment thats better and i know that a new one is coming in a few years that is better, would i buy the game, i want games to last long, not short. I bought reforger to support and to see the future but would i recommend it? No

[half locust]

and got banned, and A2 content was released in data packages. Also it is said on the A4 FAQ that reforger content will be available in A4

not sure why this is even a discussion anyways

[terse cloak]

Yeah have met some people on reforger dayz servers or life servers who tell me they only bought the game to play that, and when i ask them about conlfict they are like what is that?

[elfin ledge]

Cool

[quaint cargo]

Is one able to simulate “plunging fire” with the M1? Or do the bullets despawn

[frosty verge]

that's odd

[terse cloak]

Theres a lot of clickbait titles for reforger mods and people fall for them

Some guy is playing combat ops everon and he just puts on his video that its antistasi, like huh

[frosty verge]

i guess this is now a #reforger_discussion

[spark hound]

Those are the people I want to beat with a lead pipe see getting outta this community.

[tepid torrent]

I honestly am lost for words 😆

[fast python]

Is there a wat to delete mods without the game being open?

[stable topaz]

Yep

Just delete the addons folder?

[fossil condor]

the map tutorial is broken right?

asks to place a marker at 023-017, I place it and nothing happens

[odd ridge]

is reforger at a point where I can drop in and drop out of a public server to have some fun like in Squad, HLL, or post scriptum?

[terse cloak]

yeah

[odd ridge]

thank you

[terse cloak]

on conflict yes

[tight ginkgo]

So sad reforger literally goes on sale the day after I used my steam wallet funds, I kid you not I had 10 cents more than the game is on sale for rn 😭😂

[tight ginkgo]

Thanks but I mean I spent the wallet money on dlc for a different game cuz I didn’t have enough for reforger lol

[quaint copper]

How much is Reforger rn

[tight ginkgo]

Don’t regret the dlc, but maybe reforger would have been more fun to get first haha. I’m not mad tho it’s just a joke, I’ve had PLENTY of times I’ve bought something right before a sale. Coulda saved me literally hundreds sometimes 😭😂

[tight ginkgo]

Like $23

[quaint copper]

Add me on steam

Shoot me a DM with your tag

[odd ridge]

to play casual multiplayer, what are the best servers to play this on because the official conflict server is really laggey

[magic pebble]

all servers are very laggy.

it's being improved upon though, it's much better than it was at launch.

[odd ridge]

are modded servers worse in terms of lag?

[magic pebble]

yes.

[unreal saffron]

What does this mean

[mild crater]

is there any way i can play reforger on a Macbook? 😦

[terse cloak]

Macs arent made for gaming really

[mild crater]

yea but im overseas studying which i dont have my pc on me rn :l

[terse cloak]

I mean if it doesnt work through steam then tough luck

[winter zephyr]

If it is an x86 Mac (pre M1), you can use Bootcamp to run Windows.

[mild crater]

mine is a macbook pro (m3 pro)

[winter zephyr]

Maybe it's time to get a Steam Deck :p

You could use streaming solutions on your Mac, like GeForce Now.

[mild crater]

yep tried but the ping is crazy

[winter zephyr]

It requires a good internet connection, and would have higher latency.

[mild crater]

yea i think macbook really isnt a platform for gaming 😦

[half locust]

you cannot, even if you install windows on it via parallels

[void cargo]

hi does anybody know how to change mod folder from cloud to pc arma reforger

[elfin ledge]

What

Mods should be on your pc by default, unless youve set my documents as a onedrive folder

[foggy ridge]

Parallels? What about natively? That should work.

Assuming it has enough raw power and isn't arm

[thorn furnace]

All the macs with enough raw power are arm

[foggy ridge]

do they even make them with intels in current generation?

probably not, rip bootcamp

[thorn furnace]

they stopped making them several years go

[half locust]

previous generation (before arm) macbooks pro (the minority with dedicated gpus) cannot really run any directx12 games. arm ones don’t have dedicated gpus anymore

[foggy ridge]

a bit disappointing

[half locust]

macs are not gaming computers. They do shine at a lot of other things

[foggy ridge]

they used to have top nvidia cards a decade ago

or was it two decades ago 💀

[half locust]

2 decades ago. they have been using ati card since then, prior to the M1/2/3 lineups

[foggy ridge]

[candid echo]

yeah i saved it, i got everything back after switching between my inv and the arsenal

[lament talon]

Hi,

In Conflict :

How is supply generated at a capture point ?

Is it based on how many points are connected to that point ?

How many ticks of supply happen every x amount of seconds?

Do more supplies get generated to or from the main objectives .

[quaint copper]

happens over time if theres reverse radio connection

Yes, each base adds +1 supplies

10 supplies every 10 seconds, I think, for MOBs, and +1 every 10 seconds for every base connected to MOB (FOBs dont get the default 10, just the bonus)

MOBs and Main Objectives get a bonus to their resupply

[candid echo]

can i bandage myself ? if yes how do i do it ?

[stray blade]

Another pre release owners feature

[candid echo]

man for real !?

nah but can we really, i dont wanna die cause i cant bandage myself lol

[stray blade]

No. Another jest. Press 6 (i think) to equip bandage, and press R.

Or open inventory and drag bandage to wounded limb.
Same for all other medical stuff

[terse cloak]

6 AND R if ur on mouse and keyboard

should have done the tutorial, there you can get great help

[stray blade]

Which one of those is on your mouse?

[terse cloak]

none?

[stray blade]

Why on your "mouse and keyboard" then?

[terse cloak]

cuz maybe they playing mouse and controller idk

[stray blade]

But why mention mouse at all?

Slamington you confuse me

[candid echo]

ooooh

thanks guys 🔥, but where do i see which limb is wounded ?

[stray blade]

Open inventory

It will be obvious

[candid echo]

aight ima pay attention to it next tiem

[tight ginkgo]

Is there any way to bind toggle lean to a single tap instead of double tap?

[flint nest]

Hey, I have asked this question but I have never managed to get an answer, Will the server population be able to be raised past 128 at some point? I mainly would like to know for preparation in servers like WWII Rp and such

[magic pebble]

when the game first launched, the servers were 256 players, so I would assume that will be possible in the future. The server will crash and burn, but I believe they will allow it.

[strong frigate]

Anyway to move the install filer for mods?

[magic pebble]

there is a steam launch command to do that

[foggy ridge]

I would be down to stress test this lmao

[lament edge]

Yes, we are planning at some point to raise the limit. It was mainly reduced because the game had no chance to handle it at early access. It has been more performant and stable recently. Maybe for some specific lightweight gamemode, going over 128 could be possible

[foggy ridge]

the life servers might be able to do it

[twilit junco]

lightweight gamemode ? like no AI, no base to capture, only a few service structures on both sides in main bases, just one big team deathmatch on arland ? iam in 😄

[thorn furnace]

Some Conflict servers will run at the highest possible limit whatever it is set at. i.e. PBS and Darkgru would let their servers run at < 1 FPS with 256 slots and then blame all their problems on BI.
It's a terrible idea to increase slot count without taking other steps to address gross mismanagment of community servers. Server FPS indicator in server broswer where is it's actually relevant please!

[foggy ridge]

hmm I can see how this could generate bad image for the devs, its like, if the game cant run 256 then why enable it?

on a side note this 128p darkgru server I'm looking at right now hasnt gone below 16 fps in the last day but I'm sure with 256 it would

[thorn furnace]

Honestly I would prefer no limit to any arbitrary number, let server admins find whatever works best for the mode they are working with, but give players information on low server FPS in browser so they can make informed decisions. Currently they can't; people end up refreshing browser for 20 mins to get on a busy server only to find out it's unplayable once they finally get in.

[foggy ridge]

that's fair

I would be down to do something stupid like get a water cooled i9 9000000 just to see how much we can squeeze out

and try to run 500 players on arland

I also want to do a 128 player tank battle

[odd ridge]

how do I make a keybind that is mapped to mouse movement?

like Cyclic forward in a helo matches with my mouse moving forward

nvm, found out how to do it:
1.I went to the place I want to make my keybind
2. clicked the gear icon
3. pressed add special keybind to get the mouse movement keybind

[lament edge]

I understand this point, but in A3 we had 256 slots and no servers were using it. Because it was unstable. We just let the opportunity to the community to do another game mode that could maybe support this number of players. I do think that 128 players is too limited right now.
It will probably be this the first week, but then people will understand it and not play a server with 256 players

[wraith hatch]

when placing down a structure how long until it is built?

[terse cloak]

you have to dig it, so how fast your guy is the faster it is

[flint nest]

To be honest, as reforger gains a stronger server base I think it could hold up fairly well. I'm glad to heat well be able to hold mote players. This will expand rp a bit as well.

[lucid tulip]

500 people on Arland with each human player commanding at a minimum a entire ai squad.

[quaint copper]

That is indeed the dream

[quaint copper]

Sounds like fun

Do it on one of the open Desert maps, with occasional buildings and hills to hide behind

[lucid tulip]

Only to see how long before that melts a nasa super computer

[foggy ridge]

I wish there was a way to do driving and gunning at same time

As in for a single person, like the gunner

Not as a base game thing but like a switch in the controller component just for the fun of it

[finite turret]

You mean like GTA style or what exactly?

[terse cloak]

In a3 u could do that

[foggy ridge]

You could do that in OFP

[terse cloak]

Prolly in reforger too once commanding ai and ai drivibg comes

[candid echo]

Could someone help me with my keybinds, it is double left click or middle mouse button in order to open something in the tab menu, but when ima tryna opening the trunk of a vehicule near, it doesnt work, so if someone knows where do i change these keybinds

[magic pebble]

Would be amazing to be able to fight back when in cars, and someone is waiting beside the road. instead of just sitting there, and eating lead.

[foggy ridge]

not what I mean, you could drive and shoot the tank battlefield style in OFP, sort of

[terse cloak]

can you explain further

[foggy ridge]

it's really simple, you get in tank, you drive and shoot tank, no extra crew members (there were special versions of the tanks in OFP that allowed it)

[terse cloak]

so basically just one seater tank that doesnt require any driver ai?

[foggy ridge]

yes

[terse cloak]

modders prolly can do it idk

[foggy ridge]

Yea I wish it was easy

Maybe it is

[terse cloak]

give driver a gun

[wicked terrace]

Will 256 players work fine once Environment destruction like Buildings and Trees will come to Arma Reforger / Arma 4?

there is like already so many thing to sync not counting a doors and props

[verbal mesa]

Have flatbed trucks been removed from the roadmap? 😦

[lament edge]

I just want to be clear here, us offering 256 slots, doesn't mean that our official game mode supports that. This is just for communities like RP mods, which already run easily 128 slots, so they can push their number of players. But you can already see that the 128 conflict modded server doesn't run that well and will probably not be able to push more slots.

[quaint copper]

Which of the devs helped create the new Building system? I have a couple of technical questions in regards to a mod im creating

[balmy bluff]

how many years must pass, before smne fix broken sight in prone position?

[terse cloak]

10 minimum

[balmy bluff]

for noraml net code and 160 players i think 100

its better when you get money and making 1 bag and 1 hat per 1/4 year

like dayz devs

[elder hazel]

what's this marking on this tree in everon

what does it mean

[topaz whale]

It is marking the path. You can see the paths on this map: https://store.bistudio.com/products/arma-reforger-everon-arland-printed-map

[elder hazel]

ah, i see. thanks

[mental jackal]

Hi all. In the CIS region, the workshop has been working very poorly for the second week now, not allowing downloading and updating modifications. Where can I write about this problem?

[half locust]

find the issue tracker that linked in pins in #reforger_feedback channel

[verbal mesa]

Is there a BI employee I can DM about something with BattleEye? I just have a quick question

[arctic pebble]

google "Irpin declaration" 🫡

[mystic crest]

Does anybody know how to bind my joystick to the heli controls?

[half locust]

joysticks are not supported just yet. just mouse keyboard and controller

[mystic crest]

aw

[lucid tulip]

You are entering Finland (jk its a trail marker)

[lofty pier]

how do i fix those weird lines

[half locust]

where is this from?

[lofty pier]

reforger

[foggy ridge]

Looks like my loadout editor. Some people seem to see wireframes in it. No idea why. Not the first time.

[lofty pier]

not only inside

[half locust]

weird since it is only on helmet
