I have dozens of customers that used to be with GTXGaming and this is a common story I hear from them, unfortunately

[nimble hamlet]

So you upgrade server CPU's for better performance, but the server software is still using a fraction of its capacity. Now I understand a server machine runs several servers but still.. so you upgrade to the beastliest CPU and have 2.3% improvement and 25% higher power consumption ..

[hard epoch]

the reason providers offer CPU priority upgrades is that there is actually not enough CPU on the machine for all servers and they end up fighting each other for it

in the industry we call this overselling

[nimble hamlet]

Yeah but if you have 1 physical home machine can you have and eat the cake. I know you recommend it to whoever is able to set it up and maintain it.

[hard epoch]

absolutely, I think currently "normal" usage is somewhat around 4 cores, I can push it to use 10 with synthetic load

[nimble hamlet]

I bet you have your own personal server and its the best thing the world has ever uh.. not seen.

The possible best Arma server!

So good it feels like single player.

[hard epoch]

it feels like single player because I'm the only one that plays on it

[swift bear]

sneaking on people who think they are sneaky is fun

[ionic swift]

Thats what I do basically in the game.

[hard epoch]

I dont play the game much ever since one of the devs joined my server, shot me in the head and left

[crisp oasis]

Wait what

[hard epoch]

true story

[viscid elbow]

acuma?

[torpid tendon]

Think about it: A, coom, a. Kinda fucked up

[hard epoch]

no

[crisp oasis]

;-; 💔 im sorry

[crisp oasis]

seems like it fixed it on its own?

[lyric turret]

yo guys do you know how to fix the RDB-Mismatch error?

[sterile charm]

anybody else unable to connect to community servers?

[viscid elbow]

Delete mods from addons folder

[cosmic grove]

Delete the previous mods you installed and download again. It fixes a script error in coding.

Are the servers down again?

[prisma sundial]

Is there a way to disable Ai in conflect? i want it onley pvp

[sour cosmos]

AI can be disabled in the server config https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Server_Config#disableAI

[raven pike]

Hey guys , I'm trying to run a local dedicated server on a docker on a linux. I can access it and everything looks fine. So i tried to setup some mods , but the modlist doesn't show up and doesn't download mods when i try to join the server now. Anyone has an idea about this ? Is there a server option or config i'm missing ? ports ?

[plain junco]

i keep getting this error. any help?

[jaunty flame]

ReadMissionHeader cannot load the resource '{9A58A3A3B5FF321D}Missions/Snickers.conf'

Server fails to open the mission header anyone come across this?

[silk tide]

send config

[jaunty flame]

Cheers mate already fixed it. Thanks though

[limpid marsh]

but please dont share how you did it and what was wrong....

[unborn venture]

Just got demoted because someone ran over my landmines I marked on map -_-

[icy panther]

people don't read map while driving. Maybe they check map before they set out, but forget. better put some flags out.

[unborn venture]

I did lol

[ionic swift]

Mines are visible from 50-100 m if they still going over them its their fault. Ni matter what you do … remember once a guy ran over mine even passengers told him whats ahead ….

They need to pay attention to global chat , have a look at the map once in A while

I have played over 2500 hrs and maybe I ran over mines 2-3 times

And I use mines a lot, a professional blockader

[keen agate]

Im trying to join the WCS servers but every time I get a connection error. This hasnt happened in the past. Reistalled all mods I still get it. Any fixes?

[jaunty flame]

It was the server not downloading the configuration file. Was nothing on the editor side or reforgers side mate

[civic lance]

Is there a reason there aren't any WW2 servers/mods yet?

[amber prairie]

What does this mean? Do i gotta remove the mods listed or do i let it keep restarting till it manages to download?

[ionic swift]

no wait do you have Wolfpack buildings?

as mod or dependency of a mod?

I had the same error spicifically regarding the last 3 lines @amber prairie

[amber prairie]

Hmm i don't, i think

[ionic swift]

what map you use?

[amber prairie]

Everon

[ionic swift]

can you dm me your Json

[amber prairie]

It worked fine a couple of weeks ago, but i've been gone so i assume some update probably broke some mods

[ionic swift]

I didnt have any issue but when I remove the Wolfbuilding pack it fixed my issue idk how

I was on Germany map

Gimme time to test it on my server

do you have the scenario id?

@amber prairie

[amber prairie]

"scenarioId": "{59AD59368755F41A}Missions/21_GM_Eden.conf",

[ionic swift]

Check my DM

see if you can connect

I have no error on the web console

[grizzled tendon]

does BI plan to do anything with the blatant racism happening in the official servers, and/or provide any moderation?

reporting system, ban/suspensions, etc? uninstalled the game today, it's escalated recently, extremely bad

[sour crest]

Probabaly not. If someone is creating a shitty environment then it’s probably the best bet for the teammates to kick the person. BI seems like a pretty small studio and they probably don’t have the resources to monitor the voice chats

[ionic swift]

Thats all they have : #reforger_discussion message

[silk tide]

Not sure if you got any help. - But fragmentizer errors are related to a corrupted mod download, if this is a server environment; you are gonna have to delete everything inside your Addons folder and clear out your %temp% folder.

Let the server redownload all the addons and you should be good.

If it is a client error; no fuckin clue but probably same troubleshooting process.

[runic aspen]

can i make a new account?

[ionic swift]

I tested it on my server and worked fine

same scenario and mods

[silk tide]

Yes, it would work for you because your mod did not corrupt on download or update.

Fragmentizer errors are due to corrupt or incorrect downloads, to fix it, you gotta remove all the mods in your Addons folder and clear your temp folder.

Which I said above.

[hard epoch]

I mean you could just remove the corrupt one

[ionic swift]

how do you know which one is ??!!

[hard epoch]

it tells you

as long as it's legitimate corruption instead of a bug that sometimes used to happen that lists them randomly

[runic heron]

Where can I find a sample server config for a 128 person server?

[ionic swift]

afaik, that is just a number you set, the rest is the same

fyi: cross posting is not allowed

[shell folio]

hay wht i got to do to join yall

[sterile charm]

?

tried to connect to a multiplayer community server

[rough iron]

Pretty sure I told you yesterday there is one in the wiki that has everything you need. Just change the number of players to 128!

[runic heron]

In the wiki, you say that there is a ready-made config that has been tested, but you do not send a link. When I look at the wiki, there are only texts explaining what each command means.

[dense widget]

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

In the table of contents go to number 8 it says template

[runic heron]

Thank you, I needed a configuration example like this so I could make a comparison. This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you.

[dense widget]

Np

[tawdry current]

same just happened to my and my buddy after winning a game on pbs
literally cannot connect to any server

ok i just turned on my vpn and was able to connect. must be some kind of issue where the client is getting itself ip blocked? am on stable, no mods

[sterile charm]

I temp fixed it, all i did was join a completely random server and left then i could connect again

[muted socket]

I fucking love this game

Why havent they added a que system to multiplayer servers?

[viscid elbow]

its in experiemental

[twin hornet]

Yeah but its been like 2 years

[viscid elbow]

no im saying its in experiemental, the other build of reforger, looking at previous experiemental updates it takes about a few weeks or more or for it to come to stable. but there is no eta.

What is the fastest way to be able to spawn a helicopter?

[ionic swift]

being an admin/GM

[silk tide]

beg someone at spawn (im just kidding)

[reef charm]

Someone in Nato in [Na2] should leave, ahaha... totally kidding

[viscid elbow]

Take bases, do logi while taking bases and set objectives

[viscid elbow]

Since you just got the game go to gm and there you can spawn a heli.

[vestal laurel]

No one on TPM tactical server in Aus?

[lament knot]

Can someone dm me a good Afghan war sever and a discord server with that

[soft lintel]

Idk what logi is

[viscid elbow]

logistic.

I have solved it by putting the startup .bat inside the game folder.

[tawdry summit]

hey can anyone help test my arma reforger server

to see if others can join

[robust eagle]

sup

[fiery thunder]

anyone know why my server keeps restarting? I've configured the files and validated the json to make sure everything works smoothly however it keeps restarting and updating but i only have 16 mods on it and its been doing this since 11PM last night and its 1230PM in the afternoon

[tulip tinsel]

You have a bad mod that’s incompatible

Either that or your server IP changed

[fiery thunder]

thats what i figured but i have no idea which one

[inner geyser]

So how do I go about getting someone banned from arma. Got a couple guys that keep trying to ip attack our server.

[slate rune]

anyone know anything about the locked sever listed as metro 2035. what discord is that linked to, i searched the one on the server name and the shit crashed my pc lmao

[nimble hamlet]

I think crashing a server is an actual crime, if you can find their ID's.

[inner geyser]

What do you mean by ID like gamertag? If that's the case I know exactly who it is.

[nimble hamlet]

Gamertags, ip's and everything you can get.

[inner geyser]

It's these 2. If I'm not mistaken they've already been banned from this discord. I banned them from ours and our server and now they're trying to ddos attack. The security is keeping them out but it's affecting the way the server runs.

[nimble hamlet]

Your best bet is to change server name and ip. (ask your isp). I don't think the police will take this seriously, although it might depend on where you are. But if they are doing this and you know who they are you can try. Get yourself informed about this stuff.

[inner geyser]

Trying to brother. Brand new to running a server. I appreciate the advice.

Put in a ticket and waiting on email confirmation now to change the IP.

[tulip tinsel]

FBI report

They take it serious. It’s online terrorism.

[native bloom]

Anybody willing to teach a new player how to play?

[ionic swift]

best way is to do tutorial and then jump into Vanilla Conflict and tag along with someone who is actually playing at the moment rather than waiting for someone from here who is willing to play.

[native bloom]

i'm currently trying that.

we don't need the big 3 letter club coming after y'all

[tired jewel]

I wonder if I should get a headset with a mic on it to play multiplayer, or just use chat until i find a decent one to buy

[nimble hamlet]

You should get a headset with a mic on it to play multiplayer.

[tired jewel]

Yeah, I figured so. Beats using my Oculus on theater mode

[storm willow]

Just got 2 server crashes. Could be related with saving Loadout (in the arsenal and/or Bacon)
the dump is giving me Acess Violation. illigal read by......

anyone had this problem?

[dark ermine]

It’s decent and popular mods are being made but I was banned for a minion meme

I can get a discord link for you if you need I still recommend the server although they banned me

[ionic narwhal]

Hi,
I need to create a server for 48 players.
For example, Everon Conflict.
What is the minimum recommended RAM?

Is there a table that indicates how many players can play with and without AI based on RAM?

[nimble hamlet]

No 🙁 . Someone once said anything over 16 GB was overkill and to get the fastest (single thread) cpu you can get. But someone else posted some ram leakage so.. be on the safe side and do 32 to be future proof and add more slots in the future (48 is not much for conflict). If you are hosting a single server you don't need to go crazy on cpu so more ram is always good. I believe adding mods might also increase memory usage.

[ionic narwhal]

Maybe someone has rented a server on Azure (Microsoft) or AWS and can give me details.

[hard epoch]

it's very rare for servers to use more than 16 GiB outside of bugs

if you are going to run Conflict in PVP with AI then I do not recommend going below 4000 in Passmark single thread score

for 128 conflict I would suggest at the very least 5 cores per server

if you want smoothly then you will need 10000 passmark score 🙂 or disable AI

[storm python]

Anyone know why I load in and am just immovable in water? I was really excited to play but am just stuck in water. Could it be due to the mods?

[hard epoch]

yes it is likely a mod

[storm python]

Okay thank you. How do I get started once I get rid of it? I can’t figure out what I’m supposed to do.

[hard epoch]

when you remove the mod that causes the problem then there is no problem

[storm python]

Well I tried doing it with no mods and it worked, but I couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to do after spawning in.

[hard epoch]

have you considered playing the tutorial?

[storm python]

I did but I feel like that’s confusing too. I’m at the part where I’m supposed to capture base Arizona, but idk what to do. It says to take out my map and select the base, I think I did that but I have no idea if it worked or even what to do after that.

[hard epoch]

dont base start capture when you are close to them with no enemies present? assuming they are in radio range

[storm python]

What do you mean?

[hard epoch]

the tutorial doesnt tell you how to capture a base?

[storm python]

No. It says to select base Arizona and then idk what’s next because it doesn’t tell me anything or even how to do that. At least that I can tell

[hard epoch]

oh well

[hard pond]

wcs moment

[nimble hamlet]

Fell under the map?

[hard pond]

Yeah so did my truck

[sour cosmos]

reforger moment*

[hard pond]

Still goanna be the only pvp i enjoy

[snow yacht]

sounds about right considering my experience with their servers

[hard pond]

it was more a arma thing i hit a trance and my trucck fell into the map

[violet igloo]

anyone else having issues pulling up work shop or just loading anything?

[chrome bear]

Yes

[abstract pebble]

How do I make a ticket for eu1 chenarus conflict server

Getting kicked by people when they team killed me and then blamed it on me doing the team killing

[ionic swift]

i guess thats a community server, if so you gotta go to their discord

[bold bronze]

EXD.gg server: 1fpp vanilla 110/110 player...

[agile rivet]

That was 5 months ago.

[nocturne prawn]

Hello im thinking of buying reforger just wondering if there is an active or more than one active dayz mod server?

[pastel bison]

if you wanna play dayz buy dayz. arma is more encompassing with pve and pvp game play that is more combat orientated

[nocturne prawn]

so are there servers?

how about considering I already own it? lol and other arma games? not sure why i got such a condescending answer

[high canopy]

It's the community. Thats all it ever is sadly

[languid moss]

Is server is gone?

[tawny whale]

How do I solve this

[rough iron]

Because you asked to play DayZ but on Arma? DayZ game would obviously provide a better DayZ experience.

[muted siren]

Hey we can revisit Tanoa 2moro though right? albeit a change in weather looking forward to it getting lost freezing our balls off...👌🏻

[charred cairn]

alright

how hard is it to host a reforger server

[agile rivet]

If on Pc: Validate game files via steam, if it persists delete addons folder in Documents\My Games\ArmaReforger\profile

[clever wraith]

[red oar]

Yees

I am sure the devs will fix whatever this is.

[compact hawk]

Thought I was the only one for a sec, after I just spent 4 hours tryna troubleshoot my server. Guess that means goodnight

[red oar]

I was actually actively playing on my personal server's.

I was loading up a humvee to do a quiet assault on a small village, I loaded up the suppies and was gonna stop the vic and headed up to a high point with foliage at midnight and was gonna pick off some russians with mah m110

I got DC'ed half way to the snipers nest.

[quiet gull]

Derp no servers

[stark kelp]

I think their host server went down

[versed beacon]

are servers back up

[stark kelp]

Yes

[clever wraith]

@BI the backend has been terrible. Can we move this from your office to a cloud based service yet?

[hot plaza]

Reforger now on AWS

[hard epoch]

I had no idea it runs in dwardens basement

[red oar]

Any Ideas? All dependencies are in. I am fixing to get rid of a few mods and do more checking to see if that was the issue or not.

It was a mod

[red oar]

Never found out exactly what mod though. Looking through it now

anyone know why i keep constantly crashing? this is my crash log i got the latest time

[sour lily]

Remove all mods and try again

If it happens with no mods, try repairing AR.

[spring notch]

sounds good, thanks

[candid ridge]

Zombie modded server is awesome

[flint orchid]

Hi peeps, anyone here able to assist with a dedicated reforger server for me and some friends? I have a 2nd PC running the server on my same network as my main rig I am gaming on. I have followed most of the guides i've been able to find but I am still unable to connect to the server. Keep getting the kicked from game error below

[silk tide]

Did you properly port forward?

And may need UPnP available if you are doing it from your home.

[flint orchid]

All the ports were forwarded by my ISP, tested the same ports on my main rig as well via in game hosting and people could connect

[silk tide]

Sorry, I misread above quickly skimming and I thought your END USERS were having issues getting in; not sure what to provide on the topic of you yourself not being able to connect.

Apologies again, and hopefully you can find some guidance.

[red oar]

I found out what the problem is and it has to do with TTT_conflictpverhs. But I dont know how I would fix it. They recently updated it i'm assuming cause they noticed the same issue I was having and that is if your logged in as admin you either get kicked after a couple minutes of doing stuff in the server or if you go into Game Master.

[flint orchid]

I managed to get in on my main PC by making all the IP addresses in the server config the IPV4 address of the server PC. Im just not sure how safe that is? Im no networking guru at all, this is my first time diving into dedicated servers etc. Advice welcom

[red oar]

Get a proxy set up on your router and you should be safe.

[flint orchid]

Is that something my ISP can help with? What would I ask them?

Or is this something I set up on the server PC itself?

[red oar]

Depends. If you want to keep it confidential dm me your ISP and I can do some checking. You could also do it your self too but I have not done that.

[red oar]

If it makes you trust me any more, I signed an NDA with the USAF for Operational Security and I know how to properly handle personal info or stuff like this.

[flint orchid]

I’ll give my ISP a call tomorrow they have 24/7 support and see what can be done. It’s purely a server for me and my mates to play on, nothing large scale with random people connecting. Im from South Africa so doubt you will know our ISP’s. But I’m sure they will be able to help with something or give more suggestions. Just feel like there should be a better way to host a dedicated server than binding it to my private IP.

[red oar]

I can get you a server for free.

Hosted off of my personal Linux server panel

But the only problem you would face is bad ping being from where you are.

I can make an account for you to use so you can manage it all

[flint orchid]

That is an exceptionally generous offer. I have everything to host the server my small brain just needs to figure out some security stuff.

[autumn loom]

My server stopped working all of a sudden, no changes, now it just wont start

[oak sparrow]

Its sounding like your ISP is using NAT since you are having to have them do all the configuration. I would confirm that first because if they are NAT, at least in my case, they had to put their modem in bypass mode and assign me a static IP. Might not be your issue but I would check and at least eliminate that as the issue.

[flint orchid]

They have made my IP static on my server machine, per my request. Also forwarded the necessary port, which I also replicated on server machine's firewall rules. My only current work around (not even sure if it's a good one) is that I have to use my ipv4 private IP in all the IP fields on the server config, but then I just edit my server to not be visible on the server list. Since it's just a couple of close friends they will just direct connect via inputting the IP i provide them with password

[oak sparrow]

That is odd. Did you configure manually or are you using the Arma Reforger Dedicated Server Tool?

I only have to enter my static IP in one location. I also only opened two ports.

I personally don't like my ISP doing any of that for me, which is why I had them bypass and I am in control of it all.

Sounds like you have an acceptable work around so run with it

[flint orchid]

I have that option, but they use mikrotik routers (Which I understand is unecessarily complicated?) and I have to sign an indemnity for that should I change settings and break something then I am liable for the tech to come out

[flint orchid]

I downloaded the Reforger server files via steamCMD, and followed a guide on the IP's required. Is the arma reforger tool better?

[oak sparrow]

I prefer it since I can make changes on the fly. Its all drop down menus, etc.

[flint orchid]

Is it easy adding the mods to it?

[oak sparrow]

The only thing is I used it from the get go. It downloads steamCMD, then the dedicated server files. Tick mark to choose between release or exp.

[compact hawk]

Does anyone know if there is any Burning barrels, im tired of having to put the GM fx fires inside of the barrels because they leak out clear as day lol

[flint orchid]

So I should download steam on my server pc and download server tool from there and just follow any promts?

[oak sparrow]

Yes..

I am not sure how to use the tool with existing server files so I don't want to lead you wrong there.

I installed tool, then name server, put in IP, desired options, then when you start server it download steamcmd and the server files

[flint orchid]

Just to confirm the IP you put in the Public address is the one you can find by googling "whatismyip"

[flint orchid]

Or is that you private? hence the redaction

[oak sparrow]

and that is the other tab where you choose to run experimental or not

that is my static

that is the only place I had to put my address

[flint orchid]

so your ipv4 that pops up if you run IP config, not your public facing IP

[oak sparrow]

no that is the static IP assigned by ISP

yes.. the whatsmyip result

had to catch up on your messages

[flint orchid]

My bad, okay. I think where you left the IPs as 0.0.0.0 it defaults to the machines Private IPV4 address. The one from Whatsmyip is the on everyone can see

[oak sparrow]

that might be the case

the 0.0.0.0

[flint orchid]

I will give that a try and see if I am able to connect from my Gaming rig to the server

[oak sparrow]

If you have your server working, the only real advantage to the tool is not having to manually edit if you want to change something

Mods you choose add mod and enter the ID and name and it downloads it

[flint orchid]

Dope, I'll give it a shot and see what happens. I'm not to optimistic but worth aa shot

[oak sparrow]

if you leave version blank, it always uses latest available

LOL like it says in the image

[flint orchid]

xD

[oak sparrow]

there is a discord channel for it but not sure how to relay that to you

sent you a message with info

It also has a tic mark for saving the session. So I can shut the server down and it will load back where we left off. I typically leave it running until we complete the entire Everon Conflict, which takes us a few days. The downside to shutting down is some mods, like Keep Abandoned Vehicles is voided and they will be gone on restart.

[lime meadow]

Hello im new can i get some help with putting up a server?

[vague hearth]

how often do the official servers crash? ive experienced atleast 1 crash for the last 3 days

[autumn loom]

Is it normal that the game creates a folder below the game folder with another copy of the game when running the server?

[oak sparrow]

Do you have access to your ISP router settings?

[jaunty wagon]

is it safe to use reshade in arma reforger?

[vapid turret]

server mods get pissy about crossposts fyi

[prisma sundial]

Why do the combat ops officla scenarios cause a JIP error? Conflict and GM works fine. We're jsut trying to play with a few friends...

[vague hearth]

another official server just crashed, maybe 1 hour of gameplay (from start of round)

[spare estuary]

dont bother with official they are ran on 1998 hardware lol

[vague hearth]

kinda want to try getting achievements tho. Also most community servers are modded.

[woven river]

How does my buddy join my Xbox cross play server he’s on pc and the server doesn’t pop up in community for him

[strange vale]

Been having this for months, any ideas?

[torpid tendon]

BI hates you

[strange vale]

Apparently

[oak sparrow]

The game knows... this is not natural and should not be happening. 💀

but seriously.. have you hosted a game and had other Xbox players join you, or is this the first time you have hosted Refoger on your Xbox?

[jaunty wagon]

is it safe to use reshade in arma reforger?

[ionic swift]

iirc battleye wont let you use reshade

[prisma sundial]

The vote kick feature needs to be removed and just add a kick after certain amount of TKs cause the amount of people abusing the vote kick to just kick people they don't like is insane.

was just in a game where this dude got his friends to kick 5 people in a row for no reason

Like they're literally just banning everyone left and right on official servers

[viscid elbow]

report them

[prisma sundial]

i can't even get back into the server because they just start a vote kick as soon as you join. So impossible to get the names. This whole system is broken.

i called one of them out for TKing so they vote kicked me lol its a joke

rifterzzz and dubliner

they're in one of the two official US servers arland NY thats full rn anyway

[main sonnet]

Can someone give me a TLDR of how the game actually is in multiplayer? Youtube videos dont give a very good idea of it.

[prisma sundial]

It's honestly the best arma to play imo especially the modded servers. It's the community that will likely ruin your time

Like the issue i was having earlier people will spam the vote kick for no other reason than they dont like you and they will likely get you kicked

[main sonnet]

I was more wondering if it was basically just wander aimlessly and no communication 99% of the time. Community ruins every game basically, just didnt know if I wanted to spend money on a game that has the same problem as HLL and Squad of just no one talks and no one leads

[prisma sundial]

Same tbh depends on the team you're on. I've had games where people communicate non stop with set logi teams and pilots picking people up and coordinating with everyone and i've also had games where the only time you hear someone say anything is to smack talk someone else. It really depends on the server and if it's a full moon lmao

i recommend the game though it is really good if you get into a good server

[main sonnet]

Fair enough, Ive been sitting on getting it since release and have been looking for a not competitive shooter game where everyone sweats constantly. Maybe Ill pick it up

Havent played Arma in years at this point since Arma 3 ran like shit

[prisma sundial]

it's not too bad you get some try hards but most people just want to chill and have a good time. It runs 10x better than arma 3 btw

i recommend the modded darkgru servers they're more modernized warfare and the community on them is usually good

[main sonnet]

Yeah that was my biggest complaint with Arma as a whole was that even on good systems it ran at like 30fps when anything happened, glad they really improved basically everything about the game aside from content it seems. But thanks, Ill keep that in mind, hopefully I can have some fun with it lol

[prisma sundial]

oh dude it's like night and day. I tried going back to arma 3 and i just couldnt the controls and everything bothered me after playing reforger. The darkgru servers basically have most of the gear you'd want from arma 3 just no tanks and crap like that yet from what i remember unless they got added

[viscid elbow]

Yeah its that on public servers

[haughty herald]

Decided to buy reforger after like years and It feels like a queue simulator but theres not really a queue

[worldly zephyr]

Cant even fucking play on big servers because of teamkillers

And when you vote kick them they just leave and reconnect before the vote passes

[rough iron]

Play on moderated servers then, you'll have a much better time

(official has no moderators)

[vivid cloak]

I have never been randomly vote kicked personally

[haughty herald]

I've never had issues with big servers

I only got like 2 hours in the game and have remotely no clue what I'm doing tho

[haughty herald]

idk if server-server is different but like, how do I get better stuff, I see people with tons of cool clothes and guns

[vivid cloak]

In the arsenal is where you select your gear at base

[haughty herald]

yeah i saw that, nowhere to change your clothes tho

[vivid cloak]

one box in the arsenal is weapons and the other is clothes

[haughty herald]

odd, neither had clothes but I'll look again
seems weird to do it that way but whatever

[vivid cloak]

It's to keep the boxes cleaner and easier to navigate. And to not have 50 people trying to access one box..

[viscid elbow]

queues are in experiemental

Maybe run as admin 🤷 take a look at your console.log as well.

[stark rune]

Bro, definitely go for WCS, it’s a more chill and more organised server. We also have tanks, helis and all sorts. And WCS have a lot less hackers

Hello Boys just wanted to ask and say I personally and probably much more people would love a plane that isn’t flight delayed aka the a10. As well with that I know you guys aren’t the ones making the mods but if you do maybe just make it a little slower because all maps are smaller than others.

Maybe even just a globemaster

I've tried to reset the BATTLEYE FROM THE GAME AND THE SYSTEM BUT IT DIDN'T WORK, I ALSO TRIED TO UNINSTALL AND INSTALL THE GAME AGAIN, BUT IT DIDN'T WORK, I REALLY NEED HELP.

@plucky stone

[prisma sundial]

Dude will the arma community ever not be garbage? Kill someone hotmicing and i get kicked. Literal children

Not sure why you guys think people want to listen to your techno music no one wants to hear that shit

[rough iron]

Sounds like you killed a friendly, so what's worse, playing music through your mic or killing friendlies?

[prisma sundial]

hot micing id argue with anyone hot micing is 10x worse than killing the one doing the hot micing and it's pretty idiotic to think otherwise

[hot plaza]

Just vote to kick for that, usually works for me

[neon sigil]

If you go into the player list you can mute a single person, otherwise being kicked for doing so is justified and expected.

[prisma sundial]

shouldnt have to

[neon sigil]

Ok?

That’s the server admins job not yours…

[prisma sundial]

ill just start shooting them leave the game change my steam name and come back if thats how itll be

that'll take as much time as muting them and im satisfied

[hot plaza]

Lmao but why? Just mute them and move on, why inconvenience yourself like this

[neon sigil]

Ok, I mean you can do that, but once again servers can just IP ban you.

If you don’t like it I’d recommend bringing it to server staff otherwise once again you can and should expect further consequences like a ban.

[prisma sundial]

i play official servers and VPNs are a thing

[rough iron]

This guy reminds me of those with the mentality to yell at the admins to ban them instead of just leaving the server on your own... 🤦‍♂️

[prisma sundial]

if someone is actively telling an admin to ban them it's most likely because they have ways to get around it

[neon sigil]

Next major update an official ban system is coming, so I’d see a similar set of consequences for repeated TKs.

Although I could see an official system to repot mic spammers and get them muted or ban being part of the package, I’m not sure though.

[prisma sundial]

like this game has family sharing and steam accounts are free so any ban can be easily bypassed

[prisma sundial]

unless they get rid of family sharing no ban system will work js

[rough iron]

I've had players come back on alts and they always get tired of trying before I get tired of banning them

[prisma sundial]

and they probably made no effort to hide it was them so that tells you they dont gaf

[neon sigil]

So all this because someone mic spams?

I see someone who goes through all this work not as the only sane member of arma community but as a person who finds enjoyment in trolling, but try’s to play it off as the right thing.

People who know this much about ban avoidance, and place there knowledge in a setting like this clearly have done more than there letting on to deserve their unjustified consequence of there actions, or in your case a mere kick.

[rough iron]

They do care if they appeal their ban. That always gets me. Yells at admin to ban them, get banned, come back on an alt, get banned, then they appeal their ban and I deny it, rip

[prisma sundial]

i literally get the rank of major or coronel every game i play but sure im the troll

im the only one on my team that does shit half the time

[neon sigil]

Proceeds to create [insert server here] and attack other servers and mod teams with alt accounts on discord, trying to ruin [Insert server / mod team name here]s reputation in the community.

[prisma sundial]

don't see the need to appeal when a steam account is free and sharing your library is a few clicks

[neon sigil]

Hmm, I can’t see this mindset leading to the issues that cause your kicks or bans 🤔

[prisma sundial]

not really a mindset just the truth. Like i shot that dude then single handedly took over a position from the americans before i was kicked but again sure im the troll lmao

i'm good i was just saying how garbage the community is and how you guys cater to people who act like children and the fact you actually defend mic spammers proves my point to a T

if you mic spam i'm capping you dgaf ill leave and change my name every time and put a new vpn on just for the hell of it

btw @neon sigil what kind of photos are we DMing you for out of curiosity

[neon sigil]

There’s no where left to go in this conversation, as it’s no longer in topic, I don’t care about you skills in game. You wonder why you get kick, you showed it perfectly here.

I’d describe child like behavior as the following:
“Cry and scheme to get their way.”
I’d keep that in mind next time.

[neon sigil]

Used to be big into arma screenshots, used to do stuff for modders, but eventually got into modding, and eventually just started playing the game less.

[prisma sundial]

i wasn't wondering anything i'm fully aware why i got kicked lol dude was butt hurt i tked him and got hid friends to vote kick pretty self explanatory. But again if you mic spam i will go out of my way to cap you every single time.

[neon sigil]

Ok

[prisma sundial]

I'm in the server rn under a different name so doesnt really matter as i said lol

Hello friends, is there an EU server playing pvp in the modern era on reforger?

[full vector]

Guys, how do you turn off radio relay coverage when u building those on the base?

[vapid turret]

why do you want to?

[full vector]

I want it to be possible to only spawn from radio relays

[vapid turret]

you can disable backpack radio spawns in game master iirc

[snow yacht]

does anyone know of any good mislim and large scale servers? i already know of wcs but is there any others?

[vital cradle]

Any US servers for Reforger out there that aren’t to casual?

[unkempt apex]

Are there any euro servers with english speakers?

All the ones I join are full of russians and my russian sucks

[raven cove]

im really bad at this game but its fun for some reason

[hard epoch]

Relatable

[prisma sundial]

not sure if anyone noticed but in the past few days I noticed players able to see from 200 meters out at night and snipe you accurately without flares. Then later on a few players appeared to know exactly where you were during the entire course of the map as if using an ESP or similar wallhack. This happened to me on official servers. I can tell if a player is good or if something is suspicious. Is hacking still a big problem in Reforger? (I did see a dude using a teleport hack last week as well)

[mystic wharf]

I can’t save my loadouts. It says “Rejexted by arsenal manager” anyone know a workaround?

try saving it at the box not in the loadout editor and it should tell you why

[stuck mural]

Hey guys, I have looked high and low everywhere before asking this.... I have a dedi server with survival servers and I cannot make the game persistent/save state after restart and we loose all progress, can someone please tell me how to make the game save state on a dedi?

[hard epoch]

saving is enabled by default in the scenario and world files, you can optionally load it with the -loadSessionSave commandline parameter to the server executable

of course no guarantee that it saves/loads correctly with modded scenarios, often modders ignore the save functionality so there is nothing to load, and it does not save everything

[stuck mural]

Its creating save files its just not loading them, i have added that to the launch parameters so hopefully fixes it

[hard epoch]

hope it works

[stuck mural]

because its a hosted dedi and not on my local machine i didnt see that before so hopefully it sorts it, the information about dedicated servers is so basic

[small briar]

i keep getting vote kicked for no reason other than ppl being transphobic i love arma

[vapid turret]

how do people in game know you're trans unless you tell them?

[pastel bison]

cheating is a problem in every game. only way to counter it is to have some admin overwatching players

[storm iron]

Some players are exceptional fighters during the night, hunting for silhouette, voices, and light emission from players, however there are of course the gamma boosters and hackers

I don’t understand why the people who play on vanilla servers as NATO are so situationally unaware.

What gives? Is there a Russian bias in this game or is it something else?

[viscid elbow]

theres no russian bias in the game. new players go to US most of the times, even when there are 10 more us the soviets win

[muted pollen]

That makes sense.

[ember void]

as one of those people i can confirm ive noticed the more hardend veteran arma players tend to go ru than us its not a bais thing its just what happens then us gets wiped off the map as alot of the newer people tend to go us also the fact mainly console players dont exactly understand what ArmA is and tend to play like its cod or battlefield but its not its a whole different beast

[woven swan]

Even on the Vietnam and Insurgency servers I play on, US always loses. The balance has gotten so bad lately too. Non stop content for US and nothing for OpFor. Idk how to make them win at this point.

If I am testing mods for multiplayer on my local machine just running a GM is there any way to to laid a mod preset? Everytime I start a new GM I have to manually load the whole mod list one by one. Am I missing something? What's the point in being able to save a mod preset in the manager if you can't load it?

[vale birch]

Actually just figured out it loads it in GM mode only but not if you want to test in a scenario

[deep moat]

Whats up, since I got a new PC, I've been experiencing really strange lags, especially when I move around. But they also happen even when I'm just standing still. I usually get around 100-120 FPS, so I really don't get what's going on. If anyone has an idea, please let me know. Thanks

[hard epoch]

would help if you describe the issue in more detail

[deep moat]

It's hard to explain; they're just millisecond lags. I'll see if I can find a recording of it

[hard epoch]

looks like stuttering when loading things from disk to memory

[deep moat]

Do you know what could be causing this? Like I said, I sometimes have the problem even when standing still without doing anything

[hard epoch]

I would check your drives for health

also I would pull up something to measure cpu usage etc to see if its maybe cpu spiking

[deep moat]

something like HWINFO?

[hard epoch]

anything that can give you a chart over time is good, hopefully with enough resolution

[deep moat]

Is there a program for that, or how can I check it?

[deep moat]

alr

[hard epoch]

maybe crystal disk info on windows

[deep moat]

alr thx

[hard epoch]

what drive u got?

[deep moat]

m.2 990 pro 1tb

the pc is 2-3 weeks old im going to buy more m.2s soon

[hard epoch]

doubt its the drive then, would like to see the graphs of resource usage over time when playing to see spikes

also check to make sure you got the latest drivers and bios is up to date

some folks on AMD platforms reported a bios update helped them in the past

[deep moat]

Okay, I'll do it in a sec

U mean this? @hard epoch

[hard epoch]

if it doesnt catch any spikes you may need some other tool that monitors more

also just for testing, disable your antivirus if you run something like avast or norton or whatever

does it help to lower settings in the game or do you get it on all settings?

[deep moat]

These 'peaks' actually occur even when there's a lag, but I have no idea if the peaks in the diagram are normal

[hard epoch]

could right click the graph and change it to show individual cores

maybe its just one core out of 12 that has a spike

but that would still mean something might be getting loaded and is slow or whatever

[deep moat]

idk if u can see anything there

[hard epoch]

seems fine honestly, so it might be disk or something

[deep moat]

I lowered a few things but haven’t tried everything on low yet, I’ll do that quickly now

CrystalDiskInfo tells me that the overall condition is 100% good

[deep moat]

I've turned everything down completely, but it’s still there, and I'm only having the problems in Arma Reforger

nvm now the lags are gone

i think i know what the problem is

It's probably the view distance. At 500m, I have no lags, but at 2650m, I do

[hard epoch]

well its loading more stuff as you drive around

[deep moat]

Is there anything I can do about it, or do I have to play with this view distance?

[hard epoch]

I have the same NVMe as you and I don't get the spikes so it should give some hope

any bios update for your board available?

[deep moat]

didnt checked it yet, but how do i check for bios update? Never did that

[hard epoch]

do you know your board model?

[deep moat]

Yea its a Gigabyte B650 A ELITE AX (ice)

[hard epoch]

I guess go to gigabyte page and look it up

just be careful if you start the update make sure its for correct model as it says on the box and follow update instructions very carefully

[deep moat]

alright

[deep moat]

Okay, thank you very much, I’ll update the BIOS soon

[nimble hamlet]

The game doesn't feel smooth with a higher than normal view distance to me, despite the high FPS I run a view distance of only 1600m. (7800 X3D). Idk if its an AMD thing or the game engine still prefers brute single core performance CPU's, but my experience with these games has always been like this. Those stutters are not normal though.

[median hinge]

Is it a pre-built PC? Or did you build it yourself? Idk why but I feel like it could be a power draw issue.

Granted I play at 1500m view distance (I sincerely challenge you to find a viable engagement range further than that as infantry), 2500+ is really unnecessary.

On vanilla servers you're looking at an average 300 meter and in firefight, on modded modern servers where everyone has optics it opens up to 500 meters and in for infantry.

[deep moat]

i built it myself

[median hinge]

Gold rated PSU hopefully? And more wattage than you need?

[nimble hamlet]

Full specs? That is not normal for sure.

[deep moat]

Ye 1000W

[median hinge]

Ok, disregard me. Probably was just excessive CPU strain due to the view distance.

[deep moat]

4070ti super
64gb ram
7900X3D

[median hinge]

Keep in mind Arma has always been a very CPU heavy game

[deep moat]

yea ig, i always played on 2600+

[deep moat]

Yeah, especially in multiplayer. I could play RDR2 without any issues on my old PC, but I was getting 20 FPS in Arma

with a 1070 lol

[nimble hamlet]

That's quite beasty. You should be running better than me.

[median hinge]

Idk about Reforger but iirc older Armas also ran better on Intel CPUs due to the way they processed shit. I could be remembering wrong tho, I play on an AMD CPU

[deep moat]

I probably have the wrong settings, and i also have a ultrawide monitor

[median hinge]

I average about 90-100 with a 5900X and a 3070

[nimble hamlet]

Screen resolution makes a huge difference in Reforger. I was getting betwean 300 and 400 fps in windowed mode lol.

[deep moat]

crazy

[nimble hamlet]

What is your native display resolution?

[opaque plover]

the G.I. GO HOME flows harder then the THEY'RE IN THE TREES mindset

[median hinge]

I still play in 1080p lmao, my eyes aren't great anyway so 4k wouldn't make me a pro

[deep moat]

3440x1440 @nimble hamlet

[nimble hamlet]

There you go. I'm only at 1440 and can tell the difference between it and 1080p. Got something else to test? Like old display?

[opaque plover]

the new players just haven't embraced the war crimes yet, it's a growing process 😌

[deep moat]

i have a 2nd monitor 2560x1080

[nimble hamlet]

Try it. It might be the vram not being enough for that extreme, afterall you are not rocking a 4090 mmh.

[deep moat]

ye

[opaque plover]

miss when life servers were about smuggling guns, harvesting organs and being osama bin checkpoint destroyer or the complete opposite side of that spectrum, now I might as well hop on a mediocre gtarp server where everyone gotta act gang gang to have a lil self esteem in their life

[deep moat]

What should i do? This is Viewdistance

[opaque plover]

operation arrowhead hit diff 😔

[opaque plover]

dude can't even see the guy throwing him a frisbee, sheesh, feel bad for ya

[deep moat]

lol

can anyone explain what vsync does for stupid people like me, and maybe what fidelityFX super resolution 1.0 does

[opaque plover]

locks yo framerate to yo monitors refresh rate and culls screen tearing

[nimble hamlet]

V-sync is supposed to cap your FPS to your screens refresh rate, but I disabled it because it was making.. it.. stutter!! You may have found your problem!

[opaque plover]

super resolution 'bakes tf outta yo textures', its like that toxic pretty girl you can't decide if you want in or out of yo life tbh

[deep moat]

Are there settings that should definitely be turned off or on? And another question, is there a way to watch Twitch or YouTube without lag while I'm playing Arma?

or is there any video which explains the settings good

[median hinge]

Reforger would benefit greatly from Taki life I think

[nimble hamlet]

Role playing? Eh.. wouldn't that work better in gta?

[median hinge]

Nah, Takistan life had 2 factions fighting at the border with civs mixed in. If you just want combat you can play one of those 2 factions, the civs had a lot more opportunities for fun game play as opposed to the weird lite RP of Altis life

[opaque plover]

this man now holds the talking stick, knew he was bout to spit from the pfp

[opaque plover]

maybe a matyr is among us, the fallujah map does exist and heel fits for the most part

[small pond]

super resolution 1.0 is an upscaler, sharpens the edges so the game looks as best as it can on lower resolutions, hence the render scale slider

[small pond]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7jynjczZag

[opaque plover]

LOW CAN LOOK LIKE THAT, holy fuck when I set my shit all to low I didnt even notice a big difference tbh

might have to due with the fact I gotta stream at 720p60fps and upscale to 150% for 1080 but that don't sound right at all, geforce now on a chromebook things

[ionic swift]

But the FPS it shows at least for me when I go Low its higher(100 +) and when I go higher quality with 4K it goes Lower (60-70)

[hard epoch]

microstutter is probably not "hardware not good enough"

[nimble hamlet]

Fidelity FX is AMD only? Wuah!

[small pond]

who says so

[nimble hamlet]

Duckduckgo?

[small pond]

lol

[vivid cloak]

Taki Life was awesome especially in servers where the militaries were milsim

[prisma sundial]

Getting a lot of illegal write errors in reforger? anyone else? havent been able to find a fix'

[frozen lark]

Anyone have the same problem where different buildings have completely different supply amounts?

There were no supply pools or caches near any of my buildings, they just had different supply amounts

Like my light vehicle depot had ~3000 supplies while my command tent had about ~100, which was pretty ironic

[deep moat]

can soemeone help me rq? i cant watch twitch or youtube while playing arma reforger can i fix it somehow

[azure sandal]

Can I join anyones team to play a game? I am not entirely sure how to play it yet. Might have to carry me a bit LOL

[orchid crypt]

for a cpu heavy game i dont recall seing it more than 30% usage. IN turn for DCS i can go up to the 60-70% cpu usage with the F4 phantom module when the radar or targeting pods running active.

[analog forge]

does anyone know of an australian arma community? Trying to drum up some interest in a local wasteland server for us down under.

[vague hearth]

check your gpu usage, might not be enough left for twitch/yt. Reforger uses about 90% GPU for me and i had to lower settings/resolution to get youtube working on second monitor. Plus ICUE is bugging out with rgb due to max gpu usage too

[pastel lodge]

Have you tried disabling hardware acceleration in your browser settings?

[pastel plaza]

Hey i just got arma reforger after lots of concideration, but I can not find a single full server, whats up with that?

[viscid elbow]

you are most likely on experiemental

[pastel plaza]

No I was blind, I clicked play, not multiplayer 🤡 I assumed I was in multiplayer due to the "search server"

[tall merlin]

TPM is pretty active, same with AAO

TPM's main PVP server normally maxes out every night

[dark reef]

We have a survival server, but may not be what you are looking for with wasteland. We are adding claimable lockers and loot crates very soon.

[pine night]

Is deleting every mod and re-downloading them still the only way to fix the 'RDB_MISMATCH' error?

[viscid elbow]

Yes because it means that one of your mods are corrupted

[pine night]

Thanks!

[chilly goblet]

Hi im new to the Game can someone mybe help me get started

[vapid turret]

Play the tutorial yet?

[lilac shale]

If you have it, try the tutorial on the "experimental" build. it's a lot easier to follow in my opinion

[deep moat]

nah how do i do it

i turned it off it looks good now thx

[deep moat]

any1 know what these lags are? And can i fix it somehow without do these bios things

[tall merlin]

Check to see if you need to do any graphics card driver updates, possibly lower some settings one at a time and keep testing to see if it's an individual setting causing the issue, test on other servers and offline in game master mode to see if it's possibly an issue server side or with mods and if none of those work find god

[deep moat]

it was my RAM, i have to buy a new motherboard soon bcs it cant handle 64gb that good

[hard epoch]

when you buy RAM make sure it is on the qualified vendor list for your motherboard model

[tall merlin]

Also make sure that your cpu is compatible with it if you aren't getting a new cpu too

[deep moat]

ye ik, I did it, but then decided on different RAM without checking if it would fit

[ionic roost]

Anyone have anything about someone making a chechen war sever bescause that would be interesting

[raven cove]

you can press shift to go faster in a vehicle? only took me 3 months to figure that out

[viscid elbow]

Yes, double press and it stays on

[quiet remnant]

only for a short time

[vapid turret]

or just drive manual and shift up and down as needed

[viscid elbow]

shift makes you press more on the throttle. whether itsa a driving assist or not

[vivid cloak]

I wish left ctrl made you press slower

Or you had a variable throttle with the mouse wheel
It would need to be very sensitive though, would be tough to do

[wintry sedge]

manual driving sucks, get killed more when the driver is using manual instead of full assist.

[viscid elbow]

skill issue

[wintry sedge]

https://tenor.com/view/like-be-highway-on-driving-gif-21191169

[viscid elbow]

i survive more with manual

[wintry sedge]

I never use it. I prefer to press a key and the car does what I want it too. Don't want extra useless layers.

[vivid cloak]

100% a skill issue. I drove way better in standard

Not useless layers, you have more control over the vehicle

[wintry sedge]

I drive better than you with assist

[vivid cloak]

I doubt it

[wintry sedge]

I do

[vivid cloak]

Whatever pal

[wintry sedge]

sure whatever

[vivid cloak]

Such a stupid thing to say

[wintry sedge]

whatever you say pal

[raven cove]

you guys doing okay?

[vivid cloak]

Standard gives you much more control when navigating terrain, you can engine brake to avoid steering lock and retain better traction in bad terrain such as downhill offroad, navigate the powerband to what is necessary instead of the car selecting the wrong gear and you can choose lower gears for more torque. Automatic will choose the best gear for the current situation but it never lets you plan ahead

[vivid cloak]

We're just having fun

Nothing like having the trans shift up to OD when going uphill offroad😂

Oh and getting stuck trying to escape because your reverse isn't working🙃

In real life automatic is probably better in high stress situations though that's why the US military went all automatic now but you still have less control over the vehicle but nobody wants to stall while panicking and getting shot at

[raven cove]

what exactly do you mean by "have a fun time"

[hard epoch]

[woven cradle]

Using manual mode actually gives an advantage when u get used to it if u keep it in a high gear so the engine is at a low rpm and u can drive around much quieter then everyone else

[rough iron]

Sure until you get that bug that pops you into neutral and you have to go into settings to switch off of full assist to fix it...

[hard epoch]

Me when driving a BMW DCT

If you know you know

[devout escarp]

can anybody tell me why the AH6M mod is never downloading for me in reforger

this keeps happening idk

[ionic roost]

maybe you have to many mods installed

if that doesn't work

reinstalling the game could

[vivid cloak]

You love your bimmers eh?

[hard epoch]

I just like the 4 F series

[limber mica]

Hey so quick question for anyone that might know.
I'm running a Arma Reforger server on a linux based machine using pterodactyl.
I'm left scratching my head, for whatever reason the server is outputting the folling error:

 BACKEND      : Server config loaded.
BACKEND      : Loading dedicated server config.
 BACKEND      : JSON Schema Validation:
  BACKEND      : additionalProperties error:
   BACKEND   (E): Param "#/game/gameProperties/crossPlatform" is not allowed and must be removed.
   BACKEND   (E): Reference in schema: "#/properties/game/properties/gameProperties"
  BACKEND   (E): JSON is invalid!
 BACKEND   (E): There are errors in server config!
BACKEND   (E): Unable to continue with a broken DS config! Shutdown!
ENGINE    (E): Error while initializing game.
ENGINE    (E): Unable to initialize the game```
Essentially it's unable to start the server as Crossplay is enabled, it runs fine without it. I'm unsure as to why it is happening.

[hard epoch]

it will not start with invalid config, so make your config valid

here is reference https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Server_Config

[limber mica]

It's invalid as Crossplatform is enabled, and valid without it

[limber mica]

I'm setting it up exactly as instructed with no change

[hard epoch]

from your log and the above wiki link I can tell you are not setting it up correctly

gameProperties does not have a crossPlatform setting in the wiki link

[limber mica]

Mind if I DM you the config file so you can show me where I'm going wrong?

[hard epoch]

I just told you above

[limber mica]

I've been following that guide

[hard epoch]

I dont see crossPlatform here

[limber mica]

Ah, I get you. Would seem I've been stupid this whole time 🤦‍♂️
Shock after a 12 hour shift I can't think straight
Thanks for the help @hard epoch all good now

[tidal urchin]

hey maybe someone can help me I'm having issues where my service states is all red and i keep getting kicked from servers

[late vine]

If you mod Reforger than do your mods in the mornings. updates crash the servers as it is gettinbg forced to update while 80+ people are trying to play

[raven cove]

how do people see targets in the dark in this game? do you guys play with your monitor brightness cranked? people are calling targets and im squinting and i cant see anything

can you change the game brightness?

[viscid elbow]

Some turn up their gamma, the nights arent that dark

[shrewd linden]

Is there a way to make vanilla missions compatible with mods without it leading to a JIP_ERROR disconnect? To be more precise:

Is it possible to load Reforger's vanilla Combat Ops Everon mission on a dedicated server with RHS Status Quo enabled on the server, to then spawn in RHS arsenal crates via Game Master? Or does this require a edited version of said mission? I don't want to change factions or anything else, just looking to use the RHS arsenals with the default resistance faction you're playing.

Just enabling RHS and then starting the mission just leads to "group=1 'REPLICATION', reason=8 'JIP_ERROR'" for everyone trying to join with the setup above.

[hard epoch]

yes it is possible, you can fix the issue and publish a mod that works as a patch

[shrewd linden]

Okay, so it requires tinkering around with the Arma Reforger Tools I assume?

[hard epoch]

yes you cannot modify files in mods or change behavior of mods without workbench

[shrewd linden]

Hmm, I see. Time to start digging into workbench then I guess. Are there any recommended resources about getting started with it?

[hard epoch]

this probably is the best starting place https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:Arma_Reforger/Modding

[shrewd linden]

thank you, appreciated.

[vast moon]

yea im taking a look at them rn. thank you

[lament locust]

@vast moon the experimental build has an updated tutorial as well if you don't object to installing it

[inland aspen]

how do i find base game project

[wintry sedge]

documents > mygames > arma reforger workbench > addons

[carmine plank]

Do you know how this is being handled?

[lyric magnet]

what server is this?

[lament locust]

local gamemaster, running on expermental. Was toying with the suppressors and came up with this dapper look

[lyric magnet]

very dapper, thought this was maybe on a role play server

[lament locust]

I like how the bayonet / gren laucher / suppressor are all mutually exclusive

suppressors are nice, but I do have to admit to developing an affinity for the bayonet

[inland aspen]

cant find add ons see

[wintry sedge]

I misunderstood what you asked before. the base game project is something different.

this is the location for mine. should be roughly the same.

[inland aspen]

okay i found it but when i open my amra tools i don't see see where i can't see where to add a existing

it only shows to crate project

do anyone knows how to fix this

[ionic swift]

If you can create a project its fine , I had mine like that and was working

[inland aspen]

okay

do anyone knows how to copy elan map to my folder

[ionic swift]

Look up TPM on YT he should have a video about it

[rough iron]

Pretty sure elan mods all use apl-nd license, so you shouldn't be copying anything from their mods.

[grave mulch]

Are the Helos compatabile with a Hotas set up?

[viscid elbow]

no

[grave mulch]

I figured but thought i would ask incase i was wrong. Thank you.

[lament locust]

I have had great luck with a controller emulator to use my pedals

prob can do some basic stuff with a stick as well

[brave iris]

360 controller???

[lament locust]

yep, so the game thinks I am using controller triggers

the pedals are setup as a mapped device

[brave iris]

Damn okay

[lament locust]

you should be able to do the same thing with a stick

also needs to be running before you launch the game

otherwise it doesn't register

[ionic swift]

I tried with sticks they arent as responsive as you expect

Better off to use a controller till sticks are supported

[lament locust]

personally I fly kb/m so I don't have to fart around with sticks on the desk, and moving back and forth from kb to sticks

that said, I do remap my controls so w/s are collective and all the cyclic are on the mouse, a/d for pedals

[oak sparrow]

What’s the newest Xbox do u now

[dense widget]

Yes

[warped harbor]

When ?

Bc I really want this game

[dense widget]

Idk but they’re working on it

[warped harbor]

Can u put a link to the annocuemnt

I can’t find it

[dense widget]

I dont got one but its been mentioned by the devs multiple times

There’s might be a video idk tho

[warped harbor]

5bucks on ps it won’t have mods

Ngl I might just buy a Xbox just so I can play more games

[warped harbor]

Do I need Xbox s or x to run this game and other like it smoothly

[dense widget]

My s runs it “smoothly”

[warped harbor]

So it it not smooth

One I’m left handed 2. Way to broke

[dense widget]

It is most of the time

[warped harbor]

But is it worth just getting x

[dense widget]

Id say an average 40 - 60 fps

Probably

[dense widget]

^

[warped harbor]

Sorry I ain’t good at knowing what that’s means?

[dense widget]

U asked is it worth getting an x and i said probably, im not an expert tho

[warped harbor]

But it also extra 100buckd

[dense widget]

You do u

[warped harbor]

This tough

Bc I just bought 250 bike and I’m trying to get a 750 dollar drone then another 1000 on other stuff for itand Xbox 450

[oak sparrow]

So is Saved Loadouts a built in feature of Reforger? I asked because I see a Persistent Loadout Mod. That has worked but always gets broken by something else. For example in Gramps Conflict PVE it stops working, but works if I remove that mod. The in game Saved Loadout does not work with his mod either. By work I mean keeping up with the player loadout if they exit the game and come back to the same server, still running the same scenario instance.

[viscid elbow]

persistent saving no

but you can save a loadout for a session

[hard epoch]

in vanilla loadout saving only lasts until the end of the server session

[oak sparrow]

roger

so there is a conflict of some sort with Gramps303 PVE and Persistent loadouts then. We only play on our own server and play one scenario over several days. Its was nice to have the saved loadouts there each time we connected back to continue.

[hard epoch]

the loadouts mod works in vanilla

[oak sparrow]

yep but vanilla is.. too vanilla. LOL

If the AI actually fought back for caps like the Gramps mod, then it would be perfect.

[hard epoch]

I did it so long ago I don't even remember what is required

probably arsenal manager component on game mode or something

[oak sparrow]

Someone said the AI used to recap but I never saw it. Must have been early on.

[hexed crater]

Anybody know what happened to the old INSURGENCY server?

[vivid cloak]

They did use to but never in great numbers or anything substantial

[hexed crater]

Series X

[rough iron]

I havent used GM persistent loadouts for my servers in a while, but last time I did it worked fine. Except for sometimes it wouldn't be available the very first time someone spawns in on the server after joining. Then the next time they died it would show up again every time after that. I've been using bacons loadout editor ever since i stopped using the GM one.

[hard epoch]

those two mods do different things I guess he's only after persisting the kit in respawn screen

[dusk crest]

if you want to run this game on console the Xbox X is what you want, S it will crash time to time. you can also plug in a mouse and key board on the Xbox X. and as for you being left handed, you could just buy a keyboard thats reversed, and use the mouse for your left hand.

The game is coming to Playstation 5, but thats up in the air right now as of when that will be, Mods are also still in unknown for Playstation. hope this helps.

[oak sparrow]

This is the best I can explain it.

Dedicated server > Everon Conflict Scenario > 2 mods (Persistent Loadouts and Keep Vehicles Alive)
Join > Create custom loadout > Save Loadout > Leave Server > Close Game > Start Game > Join Server > Custom Loadout is still there

Dedicated server >Gramps ConflictPVE Scenario > 3 mods (Persistent, Keep + ConflictPVE)
Join > Create custom loadout > Save Loadout > Leave Server > Close Game > Start Game > Join Server > Custom Loadout is not available.

[hard epoch]

Yeah I know what you mean

[oak sparrow]

when you said "I guess"... wasn't sure did.

[tiny echo]

Are servers down

[late vine]

Dude these Reforger modder need to stop waiting till the end of the damn day when everyone is on to update their shit. You crash servers doing that and we can play for shit because of it. And ARMA you need to make a way to stop that from happening dude

[wintry sedge]

I 100% agree brother. these modders need to get their shit together or I'm not paying them another cent.

right now, the quality is way below the price.

[pastel bison]

true they should have skipped work to update during that time instead!

[late vine]

I mean 6 or so updated in 1 hour is crazy

[rough iron]

servers dont crash due to mod updates, but many servers automatically update on restarts/crashes... also, you can lock the version numbers in your server config so it doesnt update unless you want it to, so thats more of a server hoster skill issue I guess.

[dense lava]

Whats a good community realistic non arma life or scavenger modes

[late vine]

So the server owner is the reason then? Every crash there is a mod update we need to get back in?

[lament locust]

depends, how long is a piece of string?

Sorry, I don't think I can explain it any simpler than I did above.

Hello, I just got reforger but don't know how to set files to download in a different location. someone sent me something that says I have to enter commands in windowed mode, but I don't see how to do that.

Do u guys now some cool modded servers, like iraq or afghanistan

[tall merlin]

There used to be an Iraq themed server in the same vein as the Vietnam one, that being it was far more laid back and comedic. Have no clue what happened to it

There is one that runs ruskies vs us army called red storm, neat medical mods and such

[weary sorrel]

We have vanilla dedicated server and Combat Ops tasks are not marked as solved. Intel marks are left on the map and also support the attack never finished. Any known problems with this? Everon map.

When hosting Escape aka Escapist in Reforger on dedicated server, players are stuck at info that waiting Host to configure the session. Basically, players can't launch Escape session without server admin first does the scenario selections. Is there anything can be done about this?

[weary sorrel]

yes I am in the same squad with yannara, the question remains the same

[floral cairn]

Just wondering if anyone would know why we can't capture anything in the conflict PvE co-op mods?? We kill a bunch of people at/near the tent and then capturing still doesn't work... I have this running on a separate pc as a dedicated server.

We have tried on these two mods -

ConflictPvEGhostEdit
ConflictPVERemixed Edit

Neither allowed us to capture any points...

Also we are only 2 players, and ghost edit still has shit loads of enemies lmao (supposedly edited to be better for small groups, but seems to have as much as the remixed edit version lol)

Any ideas as to why we wouldn't be able to capture anything?

Or if you could reccomend another PvE game mode to use on our dedicated server that'd be good for 2 players and capturing works as well as the saving works? (We were using another conflict PvE mod where capturing worked, but saving didn't, so it was kinda pointless)

Thanks!!

[dense widget]

Do you have radio signal

[floral cairn]

Yeah it was the main objective

[dense widget]

Maybe a mod is conflicting

[floral cairn]

Even tried putting a radio relay at the HQ to see if that was the issue.. All that did was give us a bunch more objectives we could do.

[dense widget]

Idk your probably missing a few

[floral cairn]

Missing a few?

[dense widget]

Missing a few ai, to capture a base with only 2 people you need kill most if not all the ai

[rough iron]

It is on my list to make my original pve scenario configurable to include scaling of ai for smaller groups, it's just not a top priority at the moment.

[oak sparrow]

As stated in the other section, you do not mention ConflctPVERemixedVanilla2.0. If you tried ConflictPvEGhostEdit, then Vanilla2.0 is a dependency along with ConflictPVERemixed Edit. You don't mention Vanilla2.0 at all, so wondering if you did not load it on the server.

[oak sparrow]

Also I remember when I first tried Gramps Vanilla2.0 mod, I was loading the mod, but you have to load the scenario, otherwise it appears the mod is working, when it actually is not.

[floral cairn]

I had all 3 enabled when using the ghost edit. (Requires Tyler's edit too) and had the ghost edit scenario selected like you show above in the dedicated server tool.

[oak sparrow]

So did you try vanilla2.0 without the other two mods? Is that the one you say was not saving progress?

[floral cairn]

No and no, it was a completely different PvE conflict mod unrelated to Gramps mod.

[oak sparrow]

oh ok

I am running Vanilla2.0, Linear Conflict and AI limit fix. In the bigger towns, they do come in waves that make it near impossible for two players. Do wish we could scale it back just a little.

Are you ever even getting a prompt that you are capturing or does it seem completely broken?

I would test those and try and figure out what is going on but I'm afraid of messing with my server and messing up the progress we have going. We have had this going since the start of the month.

[oak sparrow]

Just making sure, but you do have Load Session Save checked at the bottom of the server management tab correct? No need fill anything in, just leave it blank.

[floral cairn]

Yeah I had that checked, but all that does is allow you to load the last save, putting a file name in you can load a specific one (helpful if you want to backup and name it something so you know specifically what it is)

But nah we weren't getting a capture progress bar or anything at all.

[oak sparrow]

Sorry, that was in reference to this "Must have working saving (one we tried saving didn't work, but capturing worked)"

I would start with minimal mods /dependencies. Vanilla2.0 by itself and see if capturing and saving work.

and some of the questions I asked might sound stupid but just trying to help you figure it out

Is BattlEye enabled in the dedicated server interface? Not even sure if that would matter.

[floral cairn]

Ye that's enabled

Next time we have a chance to play I'll try with just the Vanilla 2.0 mod and see, will be a week probably before we get that chance lol.

Quick question though, does it normally pop up with capturing or contested or something even when you 100% can't capture it because too many enemies are around?

[crisp falcon]

put m_bUseSetupMenu: 0 in mission config section in server json file and it will run automatically with the default settings without admin involvement and setup menu. You probably may want to tune other settings too, full supported settings are here:
#1217934660827611276 message
#1217934660827611276 message

[oak sparrow]

No. When you have met requirements for capturing, it shows a status bar saying you are capping. If enemies enter a certain radius during that time, if I remember correclty, that status bar goes away. Also if one or both of you leave a certain radius during that time, enemies present or not, it will go away.

[floral cairn]

Alright thanks, maybe there were just AI around that we didn't see then.

[oak sparrow]

Well to find out if its that you could jump into Game Master and see if there are any stuck in a building or behind a tree, etc..

[zenith tree]

anybody knows how to fix "GPU HANG" crash?

[oak sparrow]

I have gotten that error message twice in the 453 hours of gaming but all of that is dedicated server with a couple of friends on Everon Conflict PVE. I did very little research on it but it does seem to be most common when playing online and when using mods. How often are you experiencing it?

[zenith tree]

started happening yesterday, i got back to the game after a few months. ir happens around every 30min

[oak sparrow]

Fix recommended is roll back GPU drivers

[zenith tree]

also got a "Exception: Access violation. Illegal read by 0x7ff7173c2c36"

[oak sparrow]

did you happen to update them recently?

[zenith tree]

nah, haven't updated them in 4 months

[oak sparrow]

Feedback Tracker recommends 555.85

[zenith tree]

it was last update i had

[oak sparrow]

so you have 555.85 ?

[zenith tree]

what that

[oak sparrow]

GPU driver version

[zenith tree]

i got an AMD

[oak sparrow]

roger

So I assume since you got back into the game after a few months, the game likely had updates.

[zenith tree]

yes a few

[oak sparrow]

You can try this

are you in windows 11 or 10?

[zenith tree]

10

[oak sparrow]

I can give you the steps to try for 11 and you can see if you can find them in 10

[zenith tree]

sure

[oak sparrow]

System > Display > Graphics if you see a Default Graphics Settings click and disable Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling

I think the steps for 10 are in that article as well.

https://www.howtogeek.com/756935/how-to-enable-hardware-accelerated-gpu-scheduling-in-windows-11/#turn-on-hardware-accelerated-gpu-scheduling-in-windows-10

[zenith tree]

and this should make it good?

[oak sparrow]

I dont know. That is a fix that someone said worked for them

[zenith tree]

ill try

[oak sparrow]

its nothing you cant go back in and enable if it does not work so no risk in trying

[zenith tree]

aight thanks man

[oak sparrow]

good luck

[cedar loom]

hello guys

[oak sparrow]

Hello

[short lark]

If you have Nvidia card roll back to 555.85 graphic cards driver.

[zenith tree]

Amd

[short lark]

This does not fix "GPU hangs" error.

[short lark]

OK. So I don't know the fix then. For me it rolling back worked. The problems started after 1.2.0.124 Update. So try installing AMD drivers that were released before that date. You may want to use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to remove the driver completely and make a clean install.

For now there is no other way to fix it.

[oak sparrow]

It apparently fixed it for some.

[zenith tree]

It didnt for me either

[short lark]

From what I've found usually people did many things simultaneously and they tend to randomly attribute the fix to any of them.

Of course it's worth trying, but 99% it won't work.

[short lark]

OK. Try rolling back GPU driver.

[oak sparrow]

Recommended that first off but didn't know any specific driver since he is AMD

[zenith tree]

Dont know how to on amd

[short lark]

Go here: https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html

[oak sparrow]

Should have access to previous drivers

[short lark]

And scroll down to this:

Then find your card, select operating system and choose a driver with date before 1.2.0.124 Update, that is 22 August 2024

[short lark]

Look at my answers above, please, I forgot to press reply.

[short lark]

After you've download the driver, download this: https://www.guru3d.com/download/display-driver-uninstaller-download/

Read the instructions and run it and read the instructions again. It's safe and useful tool for removing display drivers. After you've done that, install new-older driver and it should be ok.

[slim scroll]

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with creating a mod which would allow for data collection from a reforger server to a discord channel - it would show stats of players who are in the game - stats would be: kills/deaths

[short lark]

Have you managed to roll back GPU driver?

[zenith tree]

@short lark not yet, i reinstalled the game first

Had it installed since release almost so ... Could be that as well

[short lark]

There's no need for that. You just check game files integrity on Steam.

[zenith tree]

Well too late for that 😂

[zenith tree]

@short lark so far so good, been playing for 1+ hour no problem

[short lark]

Usually I had that error after 3 hours. So take it easy.

[zenith tree]

@short larkdamn dont jinx me, happened to me usually max after 30 min

[short lark]

I'd be really glad if it worked, so more people could enjoy the game.

Depends on what you like. I recommend reading the name of the server

I was temp banned on a server, then unbanned. when i join it says "Youre banned from this session" and the admins cant find me on the ban list, any fixes?

[wintry sedge]

"Banned from this session" means a GM banned you, he will need to unban you through the #unban "GUID" command.

[gloomy crystal]

Hey, for the Red Syria server, is there anyway to change your faction besides deleting your save data?

[hard epoch]

nitpick: admin, not GM

[flint night]

How long after getting vote kicked from an official server do i have to wait before i can rejoin? I got kicked for my squad name from a match i was having a blast in

[viscid elbow]

tells you when you try again to join

[flint night]

Oh, i cant even find the server on the server list. I had it favorited but it just isnt showing up anymore

Oh well i guess ill just find another one

[shrewd granite]

ayyy slams

[patent verge]

The Official Gamemaster servers are probably the most toxic, unplayable experiences i have ever had in gaming and tbh, i partially blame it on xbox players

[simple rapids]

most public arma servers suck

[patent verge]

only in official gamemaster can you get banned for three hours because you set an enemy vehicle on fire before friendlies decided to go stick their c*cks in it

[manic trout]

Is it a known issue that in Combat Ops, the Attack mission never ends?

[last rover]

Is official server pop going up or staying at 48

[viscid elbow]

performance isnt great on 48, i dont think its gonna go up soon

when are they going to fix this bug where you cant dismount vehicles? its so obnoxious

[frigid wind]

Question?
The other day i was looking at multiplayer server's to join 1 and the ping's on one server went from 35 and jumped up to 96.
Is that my ISP company causing that?
I am paying for 1gig of internet.
I want to say my download speed was like 940 and upload was like 36 (if i remember rite). I have pc hardwired to router.
Also i am working on hosting a dedicated arma reforger server, is this an issue that need's to be resolved for it?
Thank's

[oak sparrow]

Likely not related to you. Recommend the Arma Refroger Dedicated Server Tool.

[rough iron]

Your upload speed will limit how many players you can host from home.

[frigid wind]

Thank's Gramps.
Will that effect my server fps and stuff when i get it going?

[rough iron]

It will affect players pings when you approach your limit.

[frigid wind]

@rough iron 👍

[spare cargo]

Dear Xboxers: youre ruining reforger by thinking its an open world dick off game.

Its not GTA Rp guys. Its a shooter game that just happens to afford you a certain amount of freedom
