Probably too big of a world 600 miles lol

I'll cut it in half and test

[fervent cypress]

If a mod is under APL, my understanding is that you (not the original creator) can modify the mod.

So here's the scenario:

1. A mod with a bug is under APL.
2. The original creator is unreachable.
3. A fix can be made as a separate mod that uses the original as a dependency.

Is this an allowed scenario under the intent of the APL license?

[smoky sinew]

This is debug info. Press win + Alt (i think) to bring up the menu and turn those details off.

[zealous scroll]

Yeah it's good to learn your way around them a little.

Tried resave tool

Tried revalidating steam files. Removing the reforger dependency in "open with addons" and workbench / options window and re-adding

[smoky sinew]

up

[smoky sinew]

You have a weapon that has a SCR_CollimatorSightsComponent but no SCR_CollimatorControllerComponent, which is required for it to work

[warm lotus]

Can it cause a server to crash

[smoky sinew]

nope

[zealous scroll]

Where is the best place to send feedback / suggestions ?

[jade current]

The feedback tracker.

[warm lotus]

Bohemia should implement a 3d modeler directly into workbench

[empty nexus]

God no

[digital sluice]

As someone who had to use Object Builder to import models into DayZ, yeah no thanks lol. Blender is great

[zealous scroll]

Yeah sorry but that's a terrible idea

They have a blender plugin already that's just fine

[warm mirage]

fixt it

[dapper salmon]

any idea why I cant capture military bases? Ive set them to USSR and they spawn USSR instead of FIA, they are set as control points

but when i clear them of Ai and approach the area, nothing happens

[ebon lava]

does anyone know how i can edit a mod i downloaded from workshop and have it as a dependency for my mod, I want to edit the T-72 mod (it's licensing allows me to do that, but how do I do that)? help would be appreciated

[round gorge]

you can override stuff by rightclicking it, you cannot export meshes

once smth is overridden you can edit it

[unborn inlet]

no

[tiny flume]

I'd rather we have brush-based map editing.

[zealous scroll]

Damn I scrubbed everything steam and everything arma from my machine and restarted PC and installed steam fresh and reforger fresh and made a fresh project with only the arma reforger on it and still get the error. I'm gonna try clearing it in the registry now I guess and do all that again

[unborn inlet]

there is no point whatsoever, there are no reason to create something that is worse, especially since blender is free, and everything else commercially available is going to be better anyways

[zealous scroll]

And introduce tons of new bugs and stability issues.

[warm lotus]

Thats the whole point

[zealous scroll]

lol

[zealous scroll]

Ok I've scrubbed entire PC and registry of "arma" "reforger" and "enfusion" references

Going to restart PC and try again better be fixed

[tiny flume]

You're still here.

[zealous scroll]

Yes

[zealous scroll]

Procedural based would be sweet also.

Wtf it still has the reference to my old prefab inside the reforger data somehow

RESOURCES (E): Wrong GUID/name for resource @"{6C757BA608C89D35}Configs/Editor/PlaceableEntities/Characters/Characters_USC420.conf" in property "m_sConfig"

Fk it im gonna switch to experimental tools See if that works

Wow it worked

[smoky sinew]

Does overriding and editing on project still require the dependency mod it came from?

[jade current]

How else would you mod someone's tank if you don't have their mod downloaded and set as a dependency?

[smoky sinew]

So that's a yes. Got it.

[sly summit]

Helloy all! I'm wondering how I can tweak this variables for a mesh.
(Especially pixel size filter or Pixel Scale Size)

[sly summit]

I can tweak them in the world editor when I drop the object into the world. But I want to set those variables on the object/mesh itself

[jade current]

Then save the prefab

[sudden sable]

why do I have to be within a certain distance to see other people shooting tanks and stuff?

I have a map where someone else is shooting the same thing I am looking at but I cant see their tank rounds hit?

[sly summit]

It's the ammo type prefab, which doesn't have a meshObject component for the projectile. It must spawn it in an Game Engine script or something

[smoky sinew]

up 🥲

[zealous scroll]

Is terrain the only way to affect world bounds?

There's got to be a better way.

[round gorge]

its fine, btw you can read what a license contains by clicking on the info when you publish ur mod or just google it..

[sly summit]

Er, apologies. I've done more reading and I still can't figure out a way around this.
Trying to: Edit the prefab options on tracer bullets.
Issues: Tracer is not a raw mesh object within the prefab, but is instead spawned via Game script. It also seems like the hierarchy doesn't show in realtime, so I can't isolate what prefab is spawned.
I've edited both the tracer_base prefab, weapon types etc. But none of those contain a raw mesh object, so I have to assume the properties of the tracer prefab are set somewhere else.

Is this simply something I will not be able to access/work-around, or am I missing something?

[jade current]

No MeshObject means your SOL.

[sly summit]

Ok, appreciate the certainty. Thanks!

[jade current]

There isn't anything exposed that would allow you to do it from script either.

[sly summit]

Yeah, that's what I was seeing. It seems... more restricted here than I thought. Frustrating

[jade current]

You're the first person in like 3 years to even "need" to do this. That alone should give some insight as to why it's not exposed.

One person/one use case isn't enough reason to expose functionality from engine to scripts.

[empty nexus]

Projectile meshes are in the entity attributes and not a component

[jade current]

We're both well aware of that.

[empty nexus]

Now you are. You're welcome.

Hi there, iam new to enfusion. i made a car material and uploaded it to the workshop. iam very confused why its ~70mb for just one material and a 3mb picture.

[ripe eagle]

Can anyone help with an issue I'm struggling with relating to configuring modded content in game master/entity browser?

I've added the 'SCR_EditableEntityComponent' and successfully managed to add the modded content into the game master/entity browser.

However, when selecting and placing the object in-game it is not moveable after its been initially placed. Secondly, searching the name of the entity in the browser does not return results in the filter search bar, so you have to stumble across it by selecting specific filter parameters.

Thanks

[warm mirage]

someone around trhat knows a bit about the resource stuff for vics that could help me out for a moment ? i can store supplys but i cant put them in or pull them out even tho i have set it up the same way as the base game has on any other vic

[digital sluice]

hi that’s me yes

[zealous scroll]

I was just curious if there is a way to add more categories do I just need to modify the script

[digital sluice]

Modify the script, yes. I might could make it easier to do so in the future, but currently gotta mod the enum script that contains the categories, yes

[zealous scroll]

Okay thank you very much

[ripe eagle]

The answer to this for those interested is to add 'RplComponent' to the prefab for the ability to move the entity after placement.

For being able to search for entities in the enitity browser in-game you need to follow - https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Mod_Localisation

[stray grove]

quick question, Is it possible to make a weapon invisible when I holster it?

[quasi bloom]

add this please

[jade current]

No you

[jade current]

Pretty sure that's just a tick box in one of the components on the character.

[stray grove]

Yeah, but I would like to make just one specific weapon not visibile when holstered.

Because I cannot fix its position on the characters back and it looks bad lol

[twilit barn]

Hahaha the error message wouldn't lie to you. I think you have another one somewhere. I love the last part of the reason for the crash: make sure you know what you are doing.

[night raptor]

It's the same error message that PianoMan gets in his video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYs6fpEsFvY&t=819s

As far as i can tell there's no other AIWorld in any layers, it's a weird error that doesnt even come up all the time

[zealous scroll]

Does anybody know where the slot is to put the faction base group prefab? I've seen it before but I can't find it right now. Checked faction manager, Loadout manager, game mode, character prefab and the faction conf files. Not the playable group prefab. And not the AI group prefab.

[zealous scroll]

I have gotten it too and I feel like it is just somehow thinking there are two when you either enter or exit the game mode it might see two for just a brief moment somehow

[radiant tide]

Hey guys! Looking to make some custom loading screens for my server! I cannot find ANY information to help me. im very new to this

any help?

[smoky sinew]

For loading screen you will have to do it from Workbench aka Arma Reforger Tools. It will be in the mission.conf as

[radiant tide]

oh god. okay so i am using a modded map @smoky sinew Would it be the same deal? or would that havee to be a dependency. im like brand new with this, just uploaded a png to the workshop lol

[smoky sinew]

I think the only way is to upload one. You could try this mod, I havent tested, and see if that works for what you need.
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5C774D48388FBB94

otherwise yeah, you'd have to make your custom version on workbench and upload. Adding the mods like the map, as dependencies.

[radiant tide]

imma give it a shot

[radiant tide]

Found it. Everything is read only however so a little confused on importing my image to make it the background. ill mess around with it more tommorow. Thank you

@smoky sinew

Hey it looks like its a tree of folders and it seems like it tries to overide the vanilla setup. gunna give it a shot

[carmine nexus]

hey everyone, i've been playing gramps pve conflict with the linear add on with a few friends, which was great. However i've been wondering how to change the map for this scenario. I can't find anything in the workshop and was wondering if its possible to just copy the scenario and past it onto another map in the editor?

[zealous scroll]

Also when using the prefab library what is the difference between 2 the 2 prefabs? It duplicates it into the PrefabLibrary folder but not sure what the difference is

[worn tangle]

hey folks, currently setting up custom conflict mission and would like to know how to remove rank lock on vehicles, cheers

[sleek trout]

You can literally get a camo m16 carbine with a holo on it in vanilla reforger buddy

[quasi bloom]

It's not really the rifle I want in vanilla! I just wanted the option to put a flashlight on it and also a better sight than the ones we have in the base game.

This model itself is from the same era as the Arma Reforger

It would be really cool if we had a variety of equipment for our rifles in this model, since they are taking this issue so seriously.

[zealous scroll]

You can make whatever attachments you want all of the components are there for it

Is there any loading system like can I go to a Zone and have it load a new world?

[steel plume]

Are there any tools available in world editor to lock an object in place so that it does not move after starting? Need a BTR to stay exactly where its at and not use physics

[zealous scroll]

Make it kinematic on rigidbody component

[steel plume]

Thank you so much thats exactly what i needed

[zealous scroll]

Cheers

[zealous scroll]

This is the wrong Channel if you are looking for them to add things to vanilla. This is for modding

[steel plume]

Got another question for you, no worries if u dont have the time. Im trying to film using the cinematic timeline. When i go into preview all the sudden there is an american soldier in the way. I think he is the "driver" of the BTR and it has something to do with the BTR placement since i didnt see him before i moved the BTR. Any ideas how to move him, keep him inside BTR or just get him out of the way lol. The BTR is scripted to turn on headlights and other functions on a keyframe so idk if the game added him due to those parameters or what. Thanks either way

[zealous scroll]

I do not know that one sorry. I would start disabling components on the BTR and see if you can find one that he makes it not happen and then tweak that component.

Or just go through them and see if you can find anywhere that there is Soldier prefab on

Or you could maybe see if there was a more basic version of a BTR without characters

[steel plume]

hmm ok deleted BTR and he is still there. Can't seem to find any entity's for him and he only spawns in when i preview cinematic timeline. Weird. Idk if there is a way to pause cinematic timeline and inspect entity's to find out where he's coming from. He's a ghost

[zealous scroll]

Yeah probably something on the timeline but haven't used that much really yet. Pretty new to enfusion but used several other game engines.

[steel plume]

lmao figured it out. Seems like the freecam you use to move around the world is a character. Wherever you leave the freecam before hitting "preview" on cinematic timeline, there will be a default soldier there😂

Now I just need to figure out why the weather does whatever it wants during cinematic preview and it will only have taken 3 days to capture a 10 second cinematic 😭

[zealous scroll]

Haha nice.

[steel plume]

Anyone know component name to make a vehicle (BTR) fire its main gun?

[sour grove]

Hey there,
I'm trying to get Arma Reforger Tools to run on Proton with the Following arguments:

But once I open an object in the 3D Editor Tools will always Crash. And also crash each Time I try to reload the Project.

Does anyone run Tools with Proton? Thanks for your Time. Im happy to give you more Informations.

[jade current]

Not per player.

[zealous scroll]

Thanks. Do you think it would be very difficult to do with the framework if I had somebody code it?

[jade current]

Wdym?

[zealous scroll]

Like do you think it would be possible for somebody to write a script or override a script that would make it possible

[jade current]

Loading worlds per player isn't possible.

[zealous scroll]

The idea is have an open sandbox world and then have different worlds like a battle royale World they can go to play but they can enter it from the main world

Or like a death match room and a team deathmatch room stuff like that. Okay thanks

[jade current]

I understand. But loading worlds per player isn't possible.

[zealous scroll]

Okay thank you very much

I could maybe do something where it sends them to a different server with the other modes I'll look into that I guess

[glossy warren]

I would just look at making the map very big and teleporting them to a new island within the present world

[zealous scroll]

That is a good idea. Would I be able to switch the game mode somehow though

Only one game mode per world I think

But it might be possible to still Wrangle it to work a bit like that

[glossy warren]

You just make a localized script that is a mini-game, you can define the area in the script for each island and setup a menu to trigger etc... it would require a compenent script dev but it's entirely posible. Seen it done on A3

[zealous scroll]

Awesome thanks man

[quasi bloom]

thanks bro

[zealous scroll]

Np, but I'm going to steal your idea and make a flashlight attachment.

[quasi bloom]

Jajajajajaja

[chrome gust]

Would it be possible to create a mod/plugin that can emulate different lens characteristics inside of Enfusion?

For example, true anamorphic-specific distortion, bokeh, and flaring?

Disney and Dreamworks are known to have modeled lenses (Cooke S4 Series) inside of their softwares (like Maya etc) for filmmaking and I had a shower thought thinking it would be cool to do if it were possible in reforger - imagine a cutscene that hot swaps the “look” of the scene to an actual anamorphic look rather than just crop the image with an overlay. Or what if there was a way to play in a truly anamorphic point of view for us Widescreen gamers? What if we could change the longitudinal chromatic aberration and iris blade count too?

If anyone knows anything about this as a possibility and wants to reply, please tag me in the replies incase it gets buried, thank you 😊

Hiya, how do I add stuff to a world? Whenever I add prefabs (like spawns or vehicles), the server complains about replication issues. It's always a JIPError about item being missing or different

[empty nexus]

Add blue prefabs not orange or purple

if i place a truck on my terrain i can use the doors etc but it doesnt drive forward or backwards during play tests - what am i missing?

how do i make prefabs be blue? haha

You said you "add prefabs", so I assume you know where prefabs are. Add blue ones.

How easy is it to animate In enfusion also can you model things in it? I wanna make a mod

[indigo venture]

Hey bacon how would a new modern start to make a mod and model it I'm doing it on blender unless it's easier to do on enfusion

[warm mirage]

out of no where my glas that is setup the same way for all 5 windows , 2 out of them now let bullets go through even tho they are all set to 15mm glass and the other dont do it , i have not toucht them since i last tested them where non of themlet it through unless hit enogu hto break , any idea what is causing this ?

they are both setup the same way , same collider same settings same glass type same material

[stark acorn]

I got feeling it is bounding box issue

[warm mirage]

the thing is they are setup 1:1 the same

[stark acorn]

but they are attached to different spot I assume

[warm mirage]

y

[stark acorn]

I remember having this issue on sample car but I don't remember from top of my head what it was exactly

[warm mirage]

but it all worked fine rwhen i set it all up and i tested it tons of times and now out of no where it is not working anymore

[stark acorn]

I remember it was bounding box though

well, I guess if you haven't updated workbench, then I guess we can exclude magic 😉

[warm mirage]

even if i replace the one on the right with the lefts mesh same thing happends but i checked the collision the materials and all but nothing is diffrent

[stark acorn]

bounding box it is then

[warm mirage]

and how would i be able to check or fix that?

[stark acorn]

things outside of bounding box will be ignored

I don't remember it from top of my head

[warm mirage]

thing is it worked fine tho when i tested it all, i didnt change anything on the model or glass in the last weeks

[stark acorn]

magic it is then?

[warm mirage]

some bs that changed inside wb i geus

but i cant tell what , i checked everything that i can check and nothing diffrent between the 2

[stark acorn]

I mean, I don't see point in mentioning that you didn't do anything - most likely it is effect of some action which mostly you are not connecting

[warm mirage]

i have not toucht my glass since i made them breakable and that a while ago

[stark acorn]

it is not problem with glass probably

but with entity which is holding those glass pieces

[warm mirage]

i checked my git updates

[stark acorn]

those glass pieces are probably outside of parent bounding box

[warm mirage]

i trested them without anything around it

just glass with the needed comps nothing more nothing less same happends

[stark acorn]

have you tested it as an separate entity placed on the map?

or as a slotted thing?

[warm mirage]

that what i send ya the screen off XD

[stark acorn]

?

[warm mirage]

those are 2 dif prefabs in the world

[stark acorn]

can you post pic from WB?

edit mode

[warm mirage]

small one does let it through bigger one not

[stark acorn]

in world editor

[warm mirage]

that is world editor..

[stark acorn]

in scenario where you have been testing them

[warm mirage]

?

[stark acorn]

and in such scenario they are not penetrable?

[warm mirage]

the big one is holding up and not letting the bullet pass as it should be till it breaks

the small one does let them through even tho they are the same settup

[stark acorn]

they seems to be set to glass gamemat

ok, so collisions are working - I thought bullets are not colliding at all

piece on the left is angled

so effective armor is bigger

[warm mirage]

makes no diffrence i tested it from all angles

[stark acorn]

well, set it to material with set thickness then maybe?

on this pic thickness is 9mm

[warm mirage]

they are both setup with 15mm armored glass

[stark acorn]

not this one?

[warm mirage]

dont mind the 001 (put them in same blend file so you can see)

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:FBX_Import#Physical_material_(Game_material)

Whenever you wanna changed Game material on any collider, first reset Geometry Parameters in Import Settings for an asset (.xob), otherwise new .gamemat won't be assigned and you will still see the old one.

This can be done in two ways:

By clicking with Right Mouse Button on Geometry Params property and selecting Reset do default value option
By clicking on arrow on the right side of Geometry Params property

Once that is done, Reimport resource button can be pressed. After resource was reimported, proper Layer Presets should be visible in the Geometry Params array.

[warm mirage]

again coming to the point it worked perfectly fine before

i have not toucht them i have not reimported them

[stark acorn]

can you check it in resource manager?

please, even if its true, stop saying it - its not helping

[warm mirage]

check what ? / where

[stark acorn]

assigned materials to colliders

in colliders tab

and then in import settings

as mentioned here #enfusion_generic message

[warm mirage]

you mean this ?

[stark acorn]

yes

that is not glass armored 15mm you see

[warm mirage]

both are the same tho ( this is the one htat works

upper one is the small window
bottom one is the big window

ill test it with putting the 15mm on for ya but that would be funny 1 one did work and the other not tho ?

sometimes i hate this engine for this kind of magic stuff ngl

[stark acorn]

its not magic

one was probably physically thicker

[warm mirage]

and now they dont break no more after changing it to 15mm armor , gotta love it

ill leave it by this before im getting mad at this nonsence , ill give it a shot in the morning XD

[fickle lichen]

Anyone knows what causes this?

[spring latch]

I'm looking at duplicating and then customizing from an existing template character prefab - in this case the default RHS rifleman - but I need to have a custom RHS scope spawn in with the kit. I'm able to swap the weapon template prefab out to the M4_UGI 10-inch SBR variant, but I don't see anywhere that I could attach a scope to it, even when editing the weapon prefab itself.

The end goal here is: How do I add / attach custom optics to a character loadout file?

Ideally the unit spawns in with the optic already attached to the weapon - I get that I could use the ItemsInitConfiguration function under the SCR_InventoryStorageManagerComponent to just have the scope added to a container, but I'm looking to have more control than that

[indigo venture]

question how do i import a charactar from the game to see how animation works also how do i model something with enfusion?

[round gorge]

import from the game? you mean export to ur program of choice?
you dont model smth directly in enfusion but you can model with eg blender or maya to then import it to the game

[indigo venture]

oh didnt know you cant model in the game what about a character from the game tho

[round gorge]

whats up with the character from the game, generally speaking modeling etc you do outside of the workbench

[indigo venture]

i mean like for when i end up making my mod right and model i need to animate reloads and stuff so how would i do that with a character from arma

[round gorge]

https://github.com/BohemiaInteractive/Arma-Reforger-Samples

pretty sure you can get the character with the bones etc from here to animate ur stuff and import to the workbench to then use it on the respective model / character

[indigo venture]

alr thx

[round gorge]

never animated smth yet so I cannot give you more intel on that unfortunately

I have some questions if somebody could help. I am entirely new to Arma Reforger (and the Arma franchise) but Im looking to mod a map that already exists as a mod. Is there a way I can load it into Enfusion? each attempt i make doesnt work.

[twilit barn]

Found it in scripts! in SCR_CampaignSupplyRestrictedSpawnPoint ```c
bool CanReserveFor_S();

[sinful wave]

 VEHICLE   (E): Helicopter - no physics component! 

Why am I getting this error if my Rigidbody component is there

[twilit barn]

turns out that didnt do it, TBC...

[indigo venture]

Ah alr

[restive mesa]

Gonna release this bad boy soon 😎 👍

[jaunty nacelle]

I have a question regarding which channel is best used to discuss about Cinematics?

Been wanting to get into it but noticed just how there really isnt any definite tutorials anywhere on how to get started

[timid osprey]

Anyone know who would be the best modder to contact when it comes to character outfits, outfit functionality, etc? Have some questions

[gusty pewter]

what separates a blue, orange and purple prefab? how do i make a blue prefab from something else?

[gusty pewter]

Yeah I don't know what the difference is between them, just saying 'add blue ones' when I'm asking how I make other prefabs into the blue ones is really not helpful here

[unborn inlet]

ideally don’t dm people. asking in the relevant channels will get you the answers more often than not

[timid osprey]

Not looking to DM anyone

[unborn inlet]

i assumed that is what contacting entails

[empty nexus]

Can you describe how you have added prefabs to your world exactly?

[digital fable]

if a map is under a APL are you still allowed to modify placements of objects?

[empty marsh]

has anything happnd to colliders recently i cant seem to find one thats working for a vehicle anymore

[twilit barn]

Seems like anything I try, the ability to spawn at a MHQ with a custom loadout is hard coded to false? I've done overrides on anything I can find related to custom loadouts, but every single time it comes out "Default Loadout Only."

[sinful wave]

VEHICLE (E): Helicopter - failed to load! (@"ENTITY:4611686018427387927" ('Helicopter_Base1', Vehicle)
Anybody know why this is happening? I'm just using the helicopter base, attached a mesh, and a seat component, and they can sit in it fine, but I cant start up the helicopter.

[empty marsh]

did you setup the vehicle simulation

[zinc willow]

There is a clip on youtube explaining it exactly. From BI devs aswell. Cant be that hard to find

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gm2NjrWQWpY&pp=0gcJCfcAhR29_xXO

[unborn tangle]

hi guys
how can i prohibit putting smth on the ground?
i want remove the ability to put resources on the ground (in conflict)

[formal falcon]

Folks, is there any documentation on the file format used for the .topo export when you make a map? It's got to contain all the vector information, as it overlays on the base RASTERIZATION tga, but I can't find any info on how we might interpret this or create a high resolution raster image from it

[icy delta]

Hey everyone, I cannot seem to get "reforger tools" to pop up in steam.. im pretty sure I had it at one point but may have deleted it from my library. Is there a way to recover this? I want to build maps lol

[zealous scroll]

In the top left of the library window there's a drop-down that you have to check tools on. Only games is on by default

[smoky sinew]

Hey guys, extremely new to the reforger tools - I am looking to make a mod that allows me to EXCLUSIVELY change the volume of weapon sounds etc. Have no clue where to start and couldn't really find a good tutorial. Anyone got any solid help please?

[idle saffron]

alright, i got several hours in this project and after experimenting with a new faction all my ambient spawns are now FIA. i mean when i play the scenario in the tools all the spawns that are set to ussr and even show my ussr characters on the ground, but the game shows a green icon and they flip the ussr points to fia... what did i manage to screw up that i cant find to fix?

[frigid pine]

hey so when i make my own game through the editor and copy the base settings for conflict and publish it and add the scenario id and the mod to the server host config but it doesn't let anyone join like you cant join is there a step idk about or something

[strong sinew]

I wish this game had a sort of animation/bone editor so you could make cinematics within the game or like screenshots

[onyx yarrow]

Why would my cinematic character track not be working?

[lime solstice]

Why i can't add some mods to tools proj... - Addon 'Metabolism' dependency '5D6EBC81EB1842EF' can't be added :/

[sharp frigate]

Hi, I'm modifying a map for a PvP conflict and I'm having some problems with the radio connections between the bases. Can I ask my questions about my problem here?

[fervent cypress]

I'm still trying to figure out the handguard issue with my MP5 addon.
Apparently the overall issue was that the attachment type for the handguards and the mp5's got out of sync. I fixed that I pushed an update. Here's the current problem:
✅ In Workbench (both stable and experimental) the handguard is on the gun out of the arsenal and Bacon Loadout Editor (BLE) as expected.
✅ In game local scenario with the mods, and bacon loadout editor. The handguard is on the gun from arsenal and BLE.
⛔ On the live servers I play on. The handguard is still not visible (until you move the weapon to your secondary slot and back). Despite it being the same version as the previous two.

Any recommendations of what to possibly look for to diagnose this issue would greatly be appreciated.

[wheat grove]

I have had some issues like that with certain weapons, it fixes whenever you cause the model to update at all. Idk what causes it..

[merry vessel]

do all files need to have an accompanying .meta file? Just curious since I was able to add some .wav files to an acp and it didn't register the files so no meta was created, but it appears to have worked and picked up the files in the published addon anyway?

[steel plume]

Will need some more info about what exactly isnt working but for starters i dont see your "scene" in the heirarchy which is strange unless you have filters on. I usually throw all entities for a scene under the scene as child entities so maybe that will help

[warm lotus]

I have to suggest to Enfusion engine devs, to make a preview character that appears when adjusting things like get in/get out positions, or even seating positions

[uneven marsh]

Any idea why my custom stuff isnt appearing in the arsenal? I Duplicated the Configs-EntityCatalong-FIA-InventoryItems_EntityCatalog_FIA and added my items as I normally do but this time when spawning the box nothing is actually in it aside from the base game shit

[uneven marsh]

NVM I have a bit of the tism. I accidently duplicated instead of overriding the entitly catalog

[sinful wave]

Anybody know how to get WASD input? I've tried using GetCurrentInputVector but it only works if you are walking. I want it to work no matter what, even if in a helicopter or car. Using Steer and Clutch also won't work. I also don't want to get straight from the keyboard, since I want it to work for all devices.

The class CharacterEntity has what I need maybe, but there doesn't seem to be a way to get it.

[spark escarp]

Hey everyone, I'm new here and just starting out. My first main question is: When creating a new gamemode, how can I tell my Mod to Inherited and use the Eden Prefab world?

[magic moss]

Could I get some help with this?

I just did this armband in Blender. What do I do next?

[zealous crown]

Hey, I got a qq for someone who has experience with this issue. I am working on a map for a conflict gamemode, thoughw hen I tested the base building, the camera snaps to the ground. Does anyone know of the solution for this? The game master and Arma vision cameras are perfectly fine, just the build cameras for bases is messed up

[zealous crown]

Ah, nvm

Had something to do with me editing the .layer file manually apparently, but now setting the bounds for my map won't save.

Just resets back to whatever the engien wants it to be

[sharp frigate]

Hi guys, tell me I'm modifying a map (I'm new to Enfusion) to make it PvP Conflict. I'm setting up the base with the radios, but the radio signals are way too large, even if I set the transmitting range to 10. As soon as I place a radio relay, the range is way too large.
I don't know if that's clear.
Sincerely,

[paper geyser]

Hello, this is my first time working with The Enfusion Engine. Always had a passion for making maps. So, I'm finally giving it a try and I'm loving it. I'm 85 hours, learned a lot but still picking up new tips and tricks.

One thing, I'm not able to wrap my head around is street lights.

When I placed them down to start with, it showed the lights working but the moment I entered the preview mode. The lights stop working, and then they don't work after that, even when not in the preview mode unless I replace them.

I'm not sure if this is just how the engine works, to save resources because clearly is doesn't render entirely the same if I were on the actual game.

[signal ember]

@candid laurel you can just add an arsenalbox and then change the MeshObject if you want. https://i.imgur.com/EIJQqUv.png Otherwise looking into the ArsenalBox prefabs and take a look through the components to see how they work if you're looking to do something more specific. just gotta tinker

[sage wraith]

hi guys im new to arma and arma reforger, i love the game already and specially the sandbox possibility of it, its truly game changer for me. I was wondering if anyone could point me out on how to start making building mods? I am really interested in making buildings and props for the game just for fun and test it.

[signal ember]

figure out what you're interested in and drill down into that topic. The modding wiki has some resources and some basic tutorials https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:Arma_Reforger/Modding

Looking at the base game things to see how some of it works will be helpful, same with opening mods from the workshop to take a look at the way people do stuff.

when you tried everything you can and still cant figure something out, ask in the most appropriate discord channel and most times you can get some guidance to nudge you forward. Be sure to search variations of your question first to see if its been asked 100 times already and answered :P

[sage wraith]

thank you i appreaciate it. Also, i heard that its way easier to mod in this game than it is in DayZ is it true? I came from DayZ and i wanted to learn how to mod for that game, but i felt like everything was too old school and difficult, so i gave up. Is it easier to mod here with the tools provided?

[signal ember]

Don't know. Lot of factors would go into that, personally haven't modded dayz. Regardless you'll need to put time in to get results ya know?

[sage wraith]

yeah for sure

is there any video tutorials for this too somewhere on youtube? I learn better with videos cuz of adhd

[round gorge]

100%

[signal ember]

mmm I get the videos learning being easier for people. I'm not sure specifically, the videos are kind of spread across discord channels for the various topics. You'll have to do some sleuthing on that front to find some. the assets category in the wiki should have enough info to get ya started. Then you can look through the models and textures channels, maybe pinned stuff in there to help but im not sure

[sage wraith]

okay i see, makes sense. There is a lot of tools there in the wiki, but i don't see none of them talking about object builder or somethig. Unless there is more tools? (im looking at the ones that appear at the top)

these ones

[signal ember]

well you want to model a building and then make textures and then bring it into the engine right?

[sage wraith]

Basically yeah, its not world editor i think

[round gorge]

blender

[signal ember]

So you'll need to create the model in 3d software like blender (free) and then create textures for it and then you take those creations and bring them into the workbench to configure in a project. then you publish your project once you have your items all prepped and setup

[sage wraith]

which one is the workbench? Is it the steam tools one? im sorry for asking obvious dumb questions.

[signal ember]

yes. arma reforger tools/enfusion/workbench

[sage wraith]

Thank you, already installed it.

[signal ember]

so if you wanted to. you could find a 3d model online that is free (and check the license on it), use that model to practice along with some of the wiki tutorials like importing assets/etc

Then eventually you learn blender to create your own assets. and on you go.

[sage wraith]

I kinda know a bit of blender, alreayd did some moddeling for DayZ before, just gave up because of how hard it is to script the mod itself. (was doing a collectable mod at that time). And unfortunately the DayZ tool (dont remember the name of it) was too outdated for me, its like i was in the early 00's ad it was hard to mess withh the LODs, values or weights whatever it was called. So figured maybe here it will be easier.

[signal ember]

It'll still take time to learn and figure things out but if you keep chugging away I'm sure you'll be alright. Just start small and simple then work your way up

[sage wraith]

Also being a game master is too fun, can't even stop playing around with things man 😂

[jaunty halo]

anyone had any luck getting enfusion to work on linux? I swear I googled first and searched around in discord, but discord search sucks

it's the very typical unable to locate base game issue; even when I point it at the ArmaReforger.gproj file in the base game

[signal ember]

Looks like it isn't natively supported. there was a comment about using proton but not a clean solution. Havent seen any official comments about it now or future plans

[jaunty halo]

okay derp; I did it a bunch of times and this last time it worked; must have been clicking the wrong one

for the next person since it's running through Proton and pretending to be windows:

My Computer
Z:
Go find your steam directory; mine was in `\home\yourhome\.var\app\com.valvesoftware.Steam
data\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma Reforger\addons\data and select the file in there

[sage wraith]

is there a way to snap objects one to another? Like, i wanna make a bridge but its uneven.

also if i move it while its in the air, it will go back to the height of the terrain and i dont want htat

[round gorge]

not unless you script it

[round gorge]

thats probably because the object your moving got land contacts, uhm not sure tho

[sage wraith]

script it? how do i do that?

[round gorge]

in the script editor

you just cant snap objects, thats the short answer.
Unless your familiar with scripting you wont script it just like that

[sage wraith]

yeah im not nevermind, that sucks tho :\

[dusty escarp]

hey im new to all this was just wondering is it possible for me to edit my server as it already is with objects already placed in GM? the server has mods on it too

[wanton bough]

question, we used to have dismemberment/gore mods what happened to them? is this against TOS? if its not against TOS i wanna make my own but wanna check first

[idle saffron]

does anyone know about the profile folder that seems to be popping up in my mods now? i looked in the file structure page in the wiki and theres no mention of it

[jade current]

That's your workbench profile folder and it's been there since the beginning.

[idle saffron]

ok, i guess i must not have ever look into it before, thank you man. also i thought the blue dot on the UI Info drop down box meant its been edited but Pilot compartment base is a locked file in the reforger files so i dont know why its upset about the GetInDriver.conf file in there

[sinful oxide]

I don’t believe like blood and then bone objects being spawned like a person exploding is offensive in that means. But like full limb tearing or gore gore guts etc yeah probably.

[wanton bough]

i was thinking more limb detachment. will forget it now thank you

[wheat grove]

Object builder. I liked it a lot better than blender Reforger is way way easier than DayZ

[sinful oxide]

Unfortunately limbs can’t be sliced off normally you need a model for that

[candid laurel]

thanks a lot dude - I appreciate that! 🍻 🖖

[zealous scroll]

Exception: Access violation. Illegal read by 0x7ff6a779d154 at 0x48

Anybody got any experience with this error? It happens when going into play mode with a game mode in the scene. Does it with deathmatch, capture and hold, and other game modes

Play from camera position loads fine, but not if I spawn the player. The last thing in the log is it loading the player camera when it crashes.

[sage wraith]

You liked it more than blender? Really? Dang, to me that was a pain in the ass but maybe it was better because it was around the game itself and not around other things like blender is.

[wheat grove]

Blender is so complicated and I am not a 3d modeller by any means. It is over complicated to a dummy like me, I could import things so much faster in OB. The controls made much more sense.

[sage wraith]

I see

[round gorge]

its not allowed to make money with using tools made by bi, in this case reforger tools.
Basically its against tos to accept commissions.
Outside tools thats possible like doing work in blender or scripting without using tools

would be #creators_recruiting

[atomic pelican]

I’m trying to figure out how to remove the “command tent” from a campaign military base used. Like the bases from a PVP scenario but either another object or it’s just an invisible object like the managers. TIA

[lime solstice]

What is that? (And how i can control that)

[robust hare]

Are detachable bipods planned for reforger or is it arma 4 stuff? I tried to search bipod but im not seeing the answer

[sinful oxide]

You can do it yourself if you really wanted to

@robust hare not hard

[robust hare]

My knowledge of coding and scripting is almost non-existent, i have seen the guide on RHS, but the part on how to make the bipod is missing for now. T_T

[sinful oxide]

Just use the same function as a suppressor

Bohemia has everything there for you

[stark acorn]

Have you tried hovering mouse over those numbers? 😉

it tells you how deep such component is defined. 0 means that entity/current prefab level has this component assigned

1 means that parent of that prefab has this component defined

2 means that parent of parent has this component defined

3 means that parent of parent of parent has this component defined

4 means that parent of parent of parent of parent has this component defined

[empty nexus]

What does 5 mean

[stark acorn]

Error: HTTP Error 400: {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"Your credit balance is too low to access the Anthropic API. Please go to Plans & Billing to upgrade or purchase credits."}}

[lime solstice]

Sorry for stupid quest* But thank you very much for answer

[remote bronze]

I was briefly considering asking that, glad that you did. Great minds think alike. We are both retarded.

[empty nexus]

[magic moss]

I'm currently making an armband thing and was curious to ask. How do I fit it in an extra slot like the other armband mods?

[formal falcon]

For modded servers like WCS, would it be possible to generate a long hashcode which represents your current inventory? That way you could cut and paste it back into the UI to shortcut rebuilding your loadout?

[empty nexus]

Sure it is

But if you run a server that trusts user input for loadouts then I'm not playing there lol

[formal falcon]

yeah but all it needs to do is provide an encoded fingerprint of a loadout. If it doesn't match, it can't give you the loadout

[empty nexus]

Servers like WCS can implement loadout sharing where you can have the same loadout on servers running the same mods without the users doing anything

[zealous scroll]

Need some mf better documentation on custom game modes.

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

If anybody knows any other documentation / resources for this please lmk. This is all I can find and it's way light.

Can the next workshop please be about setting up a custom game mode from scratch? That's what we need.

Using the gamemode base prefab, not any other ones

[empty nexus]

Custom game mode? You'd need to create the game mode yourself. This will likely require scripting.

[zealous scroll]

Yes but before that they should show us how to set one up from scratch instead of just giving us example prefabs.

Would be insanely helpful.

[empty nexus]

You create a custom game mode by creating it from scratch. Using scripting. Extend the game mode base class.

[zealous scroll]

That's further down the line dude. I'm simply asking them to create the plain game mode example from scratch.

Instead of just providing the example prefab.

Just to get it functional and spawning nothing else.

[empty nexus]

What's a plain game mode? You can copy the setup MPTest has

[zealous scroll]

Can't use copy / paste from example scenes

[formal falcon]

You gotta learn somehow. Deconstruct the example game worlds and see what classes are on what entities

[zealous scroll]

Yep and it would be 1000x quicker if they just made a MF video showing it

[empty nexus]

Well then you can create your own world the same way mptest is. There's like 10 prefabs.

[zealous scroll]

Each prefab can have various diff components depending on the example scene.

Need them to build each prefab from scratch and tell why they are adding each component.

I'm not asking for anything radical lol. It would speed up the learning by insane amounts but apparently it's too difficult or peeps are too smug.

[formal falcon]

Well, when you figure it out, be a good person and write it up for us

[zealous scroll]

I absolutely will and make videos

[empty nexus]

Ah you want to know the behind the scenes and the why as opposed to just adding a game mode to your map. This would take a lot of time to do and vast majority of users don't care.

[zealous scroll]

But its dumb af that it doesn't exist from Bohemia already.

It's literaly going to take like weeks or months when it could take a couple hours with proper instructional material.

[formal falcon]

I don’t know, it’s going to be one of those areas where you’re stuck between simple and advanced

[empty nexus]

It's great that you want to understand how the game works but I don't see this as a priority for devs because only maybe 1% of users want to go this deep or even less

[formal falcon]

it might be interesting to see what subclasses SCR_BaseGameMode and work your way up

[zealous scroll]

It's not something that takes hardly any resources from them though.

[empty nexus]

Is time not a resource?

[zealous scroll]

The right person could do it very quickly.

[empty nexus]

Or, they could do things that most people want first

[zealous scroll]

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

and

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

are all I can find available so far

Not nearly enough info on them

[formal falcon]

Then work at it the other way too. Take a sample gameworld, see what prefabs implement game controllers, and join up the understanding, that’s what I’d do

[digital pagoda]

Who can I contact to see if I can be paid for something (not using any BI assets) without any risk of being banned by BI because of suspicions ? I'm trying yo find an official member of BI to clarify that for me before starting my thing.

What I want to do could be miss interpreted

[zealous scroll]

Yep that's what I'm doing, but can you understand how spending 200 hours on it instead of having proper instructional material is mf irritating?

Literally have one dev create the MP_Plain mode on a video from scratch. That's it.

[formal falcon]

I don’t know what you expect to happen. Maybe someone could link you to a hidden page you didn’t know about, but it doesn’t seem like it. There’s no shortcut, so it sounds like you just need to roll your sleeves up

It sucks, but that’s probably the way things are

[zealous scroll]

Already doing that bro and that's what will continue, but to me it seems like a glaring hole.

Brain just fried atm haha all good

[empty nexus]

The worst part is a video about the current setup might get outdated very quick, especially before the 1.3 update

[zealous scroll]

Yeah that is very true

I will just have to start from the very very ground up. I will make great videos about it when I figure it out

[frosty ravine]

to be fair the man has a point. now I'd be able to fill in a wiki over a month, that would've saved me at least a few hundred hours in workbench. however, now that I have the knowledge, I have no incentive to do that, because I'm interested in actually making mods, not making knowledge bases, especially since it should be BI job, and I wouldn't get paid for that.

just think about the number of working hours wasted across all other modders that had to went through the same process.

[empty nexus]

I dont consider them to be wasted since I enjoy it

[formal falcon]

If everybody acted in their own self interest, this would be a shit community. Bacon helped me out a bunch when I was first starting out with an idea. Gotta pay it forward

[manic tiger]

Hi, Does anyone know the mod that gives extended ranks?

[sharp frigate]

Hi guys, tell me I'm modifying a map (I'm new to Enfusion) to make it PvP Conflict. I'm setting up the base with the radios, but the radio signals are way too large, even if I set the transmitting range to 10. As soon as I place a radio relay, the range is way too large.
I don't know if that's clear.

[zealous scroll]

Tell me more. I only see copy text or whatever when I right click anything that's read only.

[zealous scroll]

Ohhh save the layer?

Sweet ty

[zealous scroll]

Very cool

Will help tons. That's how I wanted to approach it to begin with.

[zealous scroll]

Yep that's exactly my point. And I'm not bitching it's all cool but they would literally save hundreds of thousands of hours of people's time collectively if they spent like 5 hours of their time making a video one time.

And I get it that apparently most people are using it as a mission creating tool or whatever, but I want to use it more like a full game engine.

[jade current]

Most people are using it in a way it wasn't designed for. "Missions" are not this games design really. This game was designed for game modes with game play loops.

[steel plume]

Does anyone have a script or method for a camera within cinematic timeline to follow a projectile? Have a character entity keyframed to fire an rpg and i want to track that with a camera track

[zealous scroll]

Watch the video from Bohemia VFX artist how he made the trailer. He attaches the camera to the btr. Just do that to the projectile I imagine would work.

[steel plume]

ok. Since the projectile/rpg are not their own entity, any ideas how that would work?

[atomic pelican]

Can someone help me figure out how to have an objective without the command tent?

How do I make another object an arsenal?

[zealous scroll]

They are prob a prefab but its spawned when it shoots not just in the scene already. I think probably a small script might be the only way but idk just a thought.

You could try just putting a camera on the projectile prefab and see what happens at least.

[steel plume]

yeah i ended up just creating the pg7 entity and attaching camera to that. Only issue now is the camera rolls with the rocket😂

[zealous scroll]

haha always something

[smoky sinew]

How to adjust order of spawn points on respawn menu? I had them named A,B,C etc but I added one and then swapped the order(to move the new one higher up the list) and now it is at the end of the list again.
EDIT I added each one to a separate areas and numbered those areas. Order arrangement solved.

[fervent cypress]

Surely I'm missing something here when it comes to setting up the sights on a GL.

I've tried manually setting the offset and angle for 100,300, and 400 in hopes that would help figure out the rest but its widely inaccurate. The vertical visual offset and the angle seperately impact accuracy too much.

How are you supposed to, in good faith, set up a colimator? Just trial and error? I have it animated properly based on the sightelevation, the issue is the user's visual representation.

[empty nexus]

Dont bother, zeroing UGLs doesnt work automatically and doing it manually is never good enough

Camera doesnt even follow angles of the pivot and just stays upright weirdly

[severe kite]

anyone know if theres a way to change the default material of a xob? I'm trying to make a new tracer color

make a new mod to overwrite that mods files

yes

[candid gull]

Just range it and ain’t half a mm lower?

[wanton field]

how do I add that mod as dependency then?

[empty nexus]

Try it

[candid gull]

@empty nexus I haven’t played modded in a min I was suggesting rather than questioning.

idk if it works tho

[wanton field]

@empty nexus your loadout editor is amazing

[empty nexus]

Thank you. Try editing my m4 in it

[severe kite]

does this even like. Is that even a thing that exists

[wanton field]

already tried, works great. Trying to get into modding myself:)

[empty nexus]

No you cant override xob

[severe kite]

so id have to recreate that mesh somehow then

[candid gull]

wait… THEEE BACON 🥓
👂🏿👁️👃🏿👁️👂🏿

[empty nexus]

But you can edit the default tracer materials

[severe kite]

i know, but i wanna make a new tracer variant, not just recolor all red tracers to a different color

so i assume make a new mesh?

[empty nexus]

I think so yeah

[wanton field]

figured it out, just "add existing project" and choose the mod

[empty nexus]

Alternatively you can try one of those

[severe kite]

how does one import fonts?

[severe kite]

got it! pretty damn undocumented.. lol

[twilit barn]

Anyone know how to make the MHQ truck able to use custom loadouts? Everything I've tried keeps telling me Default loadout only...

[fervent cypress]

If remember in Arma 3 all you had to do was copy and paste the existing proxy setup and it just worked. that's dissapointing.

[wanton field]

Anyone know how to get supplies and vehicles to NOT reset when you restart a dedicated server?

[sour flax]

Hi to all 👋

Does anyone know how to start Conflict game mode on map MpTest_Basic?

Now I constantly get this error:

Virtual Machine Exception

Reason: NULL pointer to instance

Class:      'SCR_RoleSelectionMenu'
Function: 'InitMapPlain'
Stack trace:
scripts/Game/UI/Menu/DeployMenu/SCR_RoleSelectionMenu.c:214 Function InitMapPlain

[twilit barn]

youre probably going to have to add all the components needed for conflict mode

[median kestrel]

i got a question, my world editor and a couple other editors wont initialized and im confused why

[glad oriole]

Does someone have a guide on how to add gm scenario to a map I forgot

[twilit barn]

scripts probably wont compile

[onyx yarrow]

Why are my trucks full in world editor but when I preview cinematic they are empty?

[steel plume]

Does anyone know how projectiles work for projectiles that are fired from a weapon instead of created as a separate entity? Trying to find a way to attach a camera to them once its been fired from a weapon but im not sure what to call too

[steel plume]

I've noticed sometimes it takes a certain amount of time for things to really fall into place. I'd try to let the cinematic preview run for longer and see if they populate if you havent tried that already

[onyx yarrow]

I had it run for 20 seconds, I feel like theres a component that needs a parameter set but cant find which one it is

[steel plume]

ive seen things take a little longer than that to populate. I started setting my scene start a couple hundred frames from zero because of it. How are you filling them or is it just a prefab thats filled?

[onyx yarrow]

The prefab appears filled, as shown in the picture, but during preview... nothing.

Ill double it and see what happens

[steel plume]

Weird. Might have to find the box prefab and use AttachTo script to manually fill them in via keyframe

[onyx yarrow]

Right but another issue with that is the track name has to match the entity, eg truck1 which is already being used by the vehicle track... Do you know a way around that?

[steel plume]

underscore. truck1_2 for example should work

[onyx yarrow]

gotcha

[wanton field]

Someone more experienced than me wanna take a look at my first ever mod and see if I've made any newbie mistakes?

[fervent cypress]

After trial and error, I was able to get all of the EGLM's sight zeroing set up for 100,200,300,400m. The problem however is the animations after 300m. First picture is 300m, 2nd picture is 400m. 100 and 200 are normal like 300 is.

▶️ Is it possible to offset this with an animation exported from Blender (if so I can continue the question in animation).

▶️ Is it possible to manipulate how far away the gun is in any other manner? Do I need to manipulate potentially the Z offset?

If I can get this last part fixed, the EGLM is ready for testing.

[small kraken]

So 400m is just busted? Did you use the zeroing generator? If so, might want to do 400m manually. Pretty sure the zeroing is all controlled by x,y,z location & rotation. So something isn’t right. My thumper goes out to 375 (same round) and the arms don’t stretch like that. I did all the zeroing manually though

[fervent cypress]

400 is accurate in first person. I did 100,200,300,and 400 manually as the zeroing generator doesn't work. But the problem is that it makes the arms like that.

Accurate as in hits the target, not accurate as in doesn't look dumb. This is 400 in first person

[heavy ruin]

Position some supply crates manually in the back of the truck then put them under the hierarchy of the truck, they will "stick" together. I think this way will work fine for cinematics.

supplies officer being extra resourceful <.<

[sage wraith]

Anyone knows someone who makes buildings mods that i can watch and learn from? i am new to all this and wanna make some buildings for the game. Or just random assets props.

[onyx yarrow]

You have to use an enable track

[heavy ruin]

ah ok. I didn't look into cinematics yet. At least with this way you can have more control over cargo contents without much hassle.

[signal ember]

Best bet is starting out learning blender and getting down the basics of models and functionality in the program. Then after that you can start diving into the reforger implementation. There may be some videos out there of the process for importing models into reforger in addition to the bits of wiki info. But regardless, youll need to learn the modeling part, the import into reforger is the final step in that journey.

[sage wraith]

modelling is not the issue, what i need to do with the tools is the problem for me

[stark acorn]

Look for resource component

By default, resources disappear (they are being hidden) once they are depleted but you can still restore them

[signal ember]

is there a certain part of importing it into reforger you're having trouble with?

[sage wraith]

thats the thing brother, i dont know how to import it

[signal ember]

well then you'll wanna start on this page and start working through the various topics to try and piece things together. There may be some videos out there on these topics but I don't think there is any up to date list of tutorials available so you'd just have to try searching through the youtube pile in that case. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:Arma_Reforger/Modding/Assets/Tutorials

[sage wraith]

man reading sucks 😭 but yeah i guess..

thought maybe someoen had a video done about things like that for dumb people like me

[signal ember]

I know you want videos but there unfortunately wont always be some available with some of this stuff. Sometimes there are videos but they have obscure titles and never get found. Reading the wiki and trying to put things together is the best ya got for now

[jade current]

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

[wraith tiger]

Why the same copy of the script does not work? I insert this component and it does not work at all, although I changed the name of the class and component in the code to the corresponding ones.

[zealous scroll]

Anybody have an enfusion controls profile for Steam link?

[fervent cypress]

Is it possible to return if a certain slot has an attachment. I've searched scripting and the best I was able to find was something that checks if the slot is present and enabled, but not if it is currently populated.

Trying to do very basic flip up sights that are available if the weapon doesn't have an optic set.

[split rain]

can someone tell me if an how i can edit created maps to make conflict versions or do i need to make a whole new map myself? which i've done but get the invisable walls glitch but have tried the video and everything to fix and it doesnt

[narrow dagger]

Hey!

Anybody knows why my flag texture is transparent in the back?
Seems like either the faces of the model are wrongly aligned or there's some kind of transparency applied to the texture. 😦

[dire arrow]

I was wondering how many BI devs that are currently working on enfusion worked on operation flashpoint

[split rain]

do i have to add the map mods dependencies in enfusion as dependencies as well to be able to make scenerios?

[wheat birch]

I believe so

[split rain]

when i try and load the addon into enfusion it doesnt show up

thats the shit thats irritating. im following every tutorial, document to a T and when i get to the part where i select the map ass the addon for my project it doesnt show inside enfusion

[split rain]

when i right click my project and then click open with addon and select the map it not only doesnt open with the map as and addon it also deletes my folder for my project

[paper geyser]

I use to have this same issue. Make sure the mods you want to add are on the workbench. The first portal you see (it’s where you select your project) make sure those are loaded first. Then, you’ll have to open the project with addons. The you should save, then go into the options where you set the dependencies. After you selected whatever one, make sure you also have any dependencies that the mod might have. If you don’t it will not work; then once it’s loaded in. Save, reload project and you should be good

[split rain]

i finally got it thanks for the response though

[paper geyser]

No problem! I’m learning things as I go and I struggled with that part and lost 2 maps due to it so wanted to help resolve the frustration

[wanton field]

Is there any way to improve the performance of the world editor in Arma reforgers tool? it's a bit laggy to look around in a world

[zealous scroll]

Anybody know how to register or whatever I need to do for a new faction. I've setup all the conf files and player, loadout manager, faction manager.

I setup the entity manager and entity catalogs and set the entity catalogs in the Factoin conf file

SCRIPT (W): 'SCR_Faction' trying to get entity list of type 'ITEM' but there is no catalog with that type for faction 'Survivor'

Still getting these

[split rain]

you got any clue why my objectives arent showing on the map right? they are showing as seize with red markers like they are captured by rus and the mob isnt showing

[paper geyser]

I personally haven’t done anything along those lines. I wonder if “Is Control Point” supposed to be selected

@split rain

[wanton field]

Is this where I have to edit stuff to edit a scenarios counter attacks when you try to take over bases?

[split rain]

yeah the TPM Tactical video im following say to leave it uncheck, but he also gets like a full spawn select screen when he hits play where i just get thrrown in

[split rain]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsCWu77Bw9o&t=250s

[wanton field]

did u reply to wrong guy?

[split rain]

does RHS auto matically take over the factions if i use it on my server

or do i have to set it in enfusion?

[wanton field]

What I know, you have to set that in enfusion

[split rain]

yeah i been trying to figure out the keys for it

[wanton field]

Idk how tbh, new to modding. I'm trying myself to tune counter attacks to a good number, but have not a clue where to do that

[atomic apex]

Does anyone have some time to assist. I am new to modding in general but want to bring a vision to life. It would be great if I could get some basic help. TIA

[jade current]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:Arma_Reforger/Modding

[split rain]

i messed up and published a scenerio before setting a dependency and now i cant get the project to open back up
do i now have to download my scenerio and open it with the dependencies

[smoky sinew]

try opening it with addons from the project select menu(first window that opens).

[smoky sinew]

It adds multiple. You can change them around via GameMaster in game.

[split rain]

i got it finally. any idea how i can make game master work with my conflict mission so admins can do stuff? i have server admin tools and everything else

[smoky sinew]

if you use server admin tools you can set admins but playerID and they will be autologged in as admin and have access to GM. Or login via in game chat.

[split rain]

yeah its not working for some reason

[smoky sinew]

Admin tools or GM overall?

[split rain]

gm overall

i try and log in it doesnt work. i've set it up with other maps before and its working. this is my first time with a scenario i've made

[smoky sinew]

if you login as admin you should get access. Even if the scenario is SCR and not Gamemaster, you can still use gamemaster.

if not make sure you haven't unchecked something about GM in your scenario from workbench.

[sage wraith]

guys, anyone know if its possible to change the FOV(i think) of how the guns look when we are holding them in first person? For example, the guns look too straight in arma, like they are stretched too, and i wish to be able to make them look a bit more to the right, so i can see more oof the gun and not make it look stretchy. Is this possible? Maybe with mods?

the m110 is just a example

[lime solstice]

Has anyone encountered something similar? When running locally everything is fine, when I run dedicated under a character the models hang

[empty nexus]

The one on the right might be a viewmodel

[sage wraith]

i know its a viewmodel. That is what i want, to change the viewmodel. i know there is o option for that, but is it possible to make it somehow with a mod maybe?

also, can someone tell me why cant i see the folder of my saiga weapon when i wanna pick the texture?

How do i even find it, it only shows two folders there.

[empty nexus]

No there are no viewmodel fake stuff. You can script fov changes of course though.

Your textures are not imported. They are wrong anyway as they dont seem to be bcr and nmo

[sage wraith]

man this is confusing

[sage wraith]

is it possible to somehow make them bcr ad nmo?

i downloaded the gun from sketchlabs

[fervent cypress]

I working on a tactical reload script. I have the animation and animation events working. The last part I need to do is to spawn the dropped magazine at a certain point. I've searched enfusion_scripting for keywords like spawn/create but I'm not finding scripting examples.

1️⃣ Is it possible to spawn a prefab (in this case a SCAR17 magazine) at a specific bone but have physics enabled so it drops to the ground? If so what is the name of the spawning command so I can research on the API documentation.
2️⃣ Would it make more sense to use a particle effect that looks like the magazine and has physics? I don't have to worry about the magazine being retrievable as this animation only plays when the magazine is empty.

[sage wraith]

guys my weapon is super huge compared to a normal weapon, how do i scale it down?

i cant put an original ak in blender to check the dimesions

to compare i mean

[fervent cypress]

Download the sampleweapon. Scale it to the trigger. Triggers tend to be the same size.

[stark acorn]

or even better, try to obtain real life dimensions and scale it to that size

[sage wraith]

wdym sampleweapon? i can't download the original ak to put it in blender.

but i tried to scale the weapon down. idk if it looks good

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Weapon_Creation/Asset_Preparation#Skeleton_Setup_&_Mesh_Rigging

[sage wraith]

i could do that, but im dumb and i wouldnt know how to check that

[stark acorn]

have you seen that tutorial?

[sage wraith]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn69fmxhC78 im watching this guys tutorial, im only good with videos unfortunately. But i am checking wiki from time to time when i am having difficulties.

the bones are a bit further in the playlist.

[fervent cypress]

Sampleweapon: https://github.com/BohemiaInteractive/Arma-Reforger-Samples/blob/main/SampleMod_NewWeapon/Assets/Weapons/Rifles/SampleWeapon_01/Anims/SampleWeapon_01_Animations.blend

[sage wraith]

il try that

do i need to make a new test world so i can try my gun? or can i just download maybe one that is good to go?

im not really looking forward to watch a whole tutorial on how to make a test world just for this lol

[fervent cypress]

You really should watch the tutorial, it goes over everything you need to in order that you need to.

it avoids wasting time.

[sage wraith]

but its 40 m 😭

[fervent cypress]

Do you want to spend 40m doing the wrong thing and not having results or following along for 40m and having a real result?

[atomic apex]

Can anyone assist me in being able to repaint an existing mod?

[atomic apex]

That too basic lol I am having trouble using EBT to load textures in blender. I have been trying different methods all night.

[sage wraith]

can someone tell me what is the slot_optics here? and what does it do? Why is it on the side of the weapon, and why do i need to put it on the side of the weapon. Im a bit confused

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Weapon_Creation/Asset_Preparation#Object_Naming

[sage wraith]

Oh the reason why its on the side of the ak is because of a mount right? I havet played the game that much so i apologize. I went straight into modding 😭

[fervent cypress]

AK's use these things called dovetails to attach optics:

[sage wraith]

yeah exactly, i assumed now its because of the mount this. Appreciate it

[stark acorn]

well, it is mentioned on that page

[sage wraith]

So in my case, my weapon actually has the optics onm the top part, i should put this snap point on the top mounted part right

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Weapon_Creation/Asset_Preparation#Add_Slots/Snap_Points

[fervent cypress]

Do you have these all bookmarked, you are fast as shit.

[stark acorn]

I wrote that so I more or less remember where things are

[sage wraith]

okay so based on the photo there in the wiki, my eye position should be higher?

[atomic apex]

Do one of yall mind helping me out with somethin?

[sage wraith]

sorry forgot to attach it.

[stark acorn]

looks fine, although that might need tweaking later https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Weapon_Creation/Prefab_Configuration#Zeroing

[glossy warren]

Since we're on the topic, do I just treat swappable stocks like an attachment and create a memory point for them? then bones within the stock for snap

As outlined in https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Weapon_Slots_And_Bones

[sage wraith]

i dont know much about guns, but isnt that part closer to the camera, the sight part, a little bit higher than it should? Shouldt it be laying flat?

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Weapon_Creation/Prefab_Configuration#Zeroing if they would be in line, then there would be no ballistic arc

[sage wraith]

would this be alright colider?

Is it okay to have those small parts of the gun model to stick out?

[zealous scroll]

Aaaah always some bullsht. How do I fix my project opening in read-only all the sudden?

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Mod_Project_Setup#Project_is_read-only

[sage wraith]

so the tutorial i was watching, doesn't show how to add a custom mag to the gun, because the guy decided to use the original ak mag on his custom gun. My gun has a specific mag for it and i tried to use it too. but for some reason its not working. I think i did the same steps that i had to do with the gun, but it didn't work. Any ideas why?

[keen tusk]

My conflict mod is up and when I join the server and load in it just gives me a blank screen with topography and the loading radar just stops spinning

[karmic quartz]

Does anyone know why my custom conflict scenario loads fine in the workbench when play testing, but then freezes on the loading screen in the game itself?

[deep quarry]

Did you set the navmeshes correctly?

[keen moon]

finally got things together to start making a map and run into these errors.. . In world editor: the first picture(error) is after importing height map. i did retry and it popped up an additional enfusion menu, i just cxlicked okay and it imported the height map.. then i went to import satmap and i get this other error.... retry, retry, over and over nothing happens, so i abort and then the app crashed and i send report. cant get past this point... im trying so hard to add value to this game and its fighting me every step of the way

[zealous scroll]

That is how this stuff works. It's never just going to magically work. You are always going to have obstacles to overcome and troubleshoot.

[keen moon]

thats why im here! hoping someone can help

[zealous scroll]

You need to learn to troubleshoot and debug yourself.

[keen moon]

Okay so what do you suggest then?

[zealous scroll]

Look up where to find logs from crashes and read them

It could be one error way at the top of the log so don't just look at the end of the log by the crash. It could be anything

[keen moon]

ill post here if im having trouble reading

after all, were here to help eachother, or atleast thats what i was told!

[zealous scroll]

It takes time to get used to you can still post here but you're going to get a lot more help if you post the error

From the log

[keen moon]

Oh yes i gotchu from the log gotcha gotcha gotcha gotxhui

what i see potentially is a RAM allocation issue? currently running 64GB with my 4070 GPU... possibly related to memory leak issues that arma tools has had, for apparently ALOT of people. . . lets hope its not that

[zealous scroll]

Yeah I had some crashes that look like memory leaks but I think it was just user error most of the time it ends up being that. I looked through the log briefly I'm in my car but I saw something about a Shader failing to compile

[keen moon]

well FWIW im following a tutorial , and his didnt error out lol. but ima run this debug thing and see if i get anything more this time

[sage wraith]

guys my eye position looks bad. But it doesn't change even if i move the thing up. It keeps on the same level. How do i fix this?

[sage wraith]

in the prefab of the weapon in the sigh component i had pivot id to optics instead of eye. fixed it when put back the eye.

[lime solstice]

???

[keen moon]

Yo appreciate you posting the solution here too 🫡, 🪙🥇🥇

[sage wraith]

No problem

[zealous scroll]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkKGcSGYlM4

Just made this. Let me know if I missed anything.

[empty nexus]

Sigh component is relatable

[zealous scroll]

Can I take a world that is a sub-scene of another world, and make it a sub-scene of a different world? Can I even remove a sub-scene once I add it?

Without copying / pasting the layers manually

[keen moon]

Can someone help explain ? Im running through it all again, and just imported height map and got the same error as my picture shows... at the bottom it says "Press Retry to debug the application - debugger must be attached) ... What does that last part mean in layman terms? "debugger must be attached" ... I havent found an exe to tag during this process?

[zealous scroll]

Game menu i think enable debugger

[smoky sinew]

I tried a bunch of these variations and no luck. My personal experience.

[fervent cypress]

I got the particle to spawn, I just need to work out the kinks of where it's spawn and how it interacts physically. I don't think the collider mesh I'm using is correct.

[zealous scroll]

Cool yeah I just copied the layers and made new worlds and pasted them not that bad.

[signal ember]

Maybe try asking in the terrain channel

[keen moon]

oh! , i thought this was the only enfusion channel.. the others must be hidden

[smoky sinew]

https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/976159873517629500

[keen moon]

i appreciate that, i really need to find that setting lol im sure im missing plenty... i just figured this discord was ded

[smoky sinew]

make sure you arnt hiding any channels. In the arma discord server banner there is a drop down arrow. "Show all Channels"

[west breach]

Quick question is there any way to work on building a map with multiple people at the same time on workbench?

[smoky sinew]

Yes there is some sort of invite system. Not sure exactly how.

[sage wraith]

any ideas why i have that hole on the side of the gun, but then on the other side i dont have anything?

this is the inside of the gun, why am i able to see the outside as if it has no faces?

[sage wraith]

the issue was with the normals. The original creator of the gun didn't add thickness to some parts that needed. Like the barrel.
Fixed by adding some more mesh to it.

[spiral vortex]

It may have been done like this to reduce poly count, in your .emat it is possible to set 'Cull' to none, under "General" allowing the texture to appear on inverted faces and no more see through

[spiral vortex]

I suggest you use bohemia tutorial for weapon creation also not only Puddy's video 🙂

[sage wraith]

in my emat? Sorry what is that and where can i find it? Is it in Blender or the workbench?

also, anyone knows what is this option in Blender for the animations? What is the shortcut for this? I can't seem to find it

[spiral vortex]

ctrl+i or i

.emat is the material in workbench, where your did apply the texture

[sage wraith]

ctrl i does that. And I just makes a keyframe. It doesn't show the menu like there in the image

[paper geyser]

Not sure if someone knows a fix, I've been researching a fix for a couple days and no luck.

When I click publish. This error shows. BACKEND (E): [RestApi] ID:[48] TYPE:[EBREQ_WORKBENCH_GetAsset] Error Code:400 - Bad Request, apiCode="workshopApi.assetNotPublished", uid="1742657522344-521979", message="Asset 64E83AD11F56BF61 is not published"

Hello everyone I just started strying to Mod Arma Reforged and am trying to make a controller but I have no idea where to start. Even getting around how the ActionsManagerComponent is being a headache. Does anyone have any info about this that could guide me?

Its my first time modding a game and is a bit chaotic

[round gorge]

you mean a controller model? Or what are we talking about here

[zealous scroll]

Yeah I completely stripped it from my machine the other day after it fubard by project.

[elder wyvern]

I'm trying to make a way so the player can interact with a world structure and move it

What I am trying to do first is so I can have so the "F" key appears on the air like when you opne a door or climb a ladder to have an action happen

[round gorge]

you had a look how the base game does it?

[elder wyvern]

I tried to replicate it but to no success

I tried to use a door as an example

They use their own components for their actions. I should make mine for the controller but the letter keeps not appearing

[dark burrow]

anyone know how to see the entire terrain in the world editor? trying to make the shape of my Island but the weird white fog shit really hurts that process

[round gorge]

you tryieng that on a custom model or on a base game prefab?
It might be an issue with the mesh / custom prefab and not directly with how you set the actions manager up

[elder wyvern]

I'm using a Crane prefab

from the base game

Why did you think a custom mesh would be the problem?

[broken frigate]

wasnt sure which channel to ask this in, but does anyone know where the compositions for the building mode are stored? trying to modify them but i cant seem to find the placable compositions lol

[round gorge]

that can be the case if the mesh is very bad or colliders not set up

[round gorge]

hmm maybe you wanna send in some screenshots of what you have done, so we can actually see it and help you based of that

[sage wraith]

guys. My animations in blender got kinda fucked up because of the frames. I don't know how it happened but basically my animations have all the same name now. And all of them have the same frame number. When i was working with them i had renamed the animationns accordingly and also adjusted the max frames for each of them. For some reason it ddin't save like that. Anyone knows what did i do wrong?

[zealous scroll]

You didn't have a git repo and a recent backup is what you did wrong 😉

[sage wraith]

could u explain please? Im not sure what u saying :\

[zealous scroll]

I'm saying those are 2 critical things that will save you in the future when something like this happens.

Download github desktop for windows, git bash for windows, and git lfs for windows and learn to set it up.

[broken frigate]

Hello! for some reason, reforger tools isnt saving my changes to a prefab. would anyone know why? i edit the prefab, make my changes. i hit save. i close the prefab. i open it back up, and all of the changes have been reverted.

I figured out what i believe the issue is. That issue being that im trying to remove objects from the prefab. after reading this page: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Data_Modding_Basics apparently you can't remove stuff from a prefab that has been overidden. So i guess my new question would be, if i wanted to create modified prefabs with some objects within them removed, would i need to create a whole new conflict modification and duplicate the prefabs instead to modify them? then use the new duplicated and modified files to be used in this new conflict modification.

[zealous scroll]

Yes if you're going to change anything on the base prefab and not just add to it you need to duplicate instead of override. Learned that myself a couple days ago.

[broken frigate]

got it, so, if i wanted to remove some objects from the prefabs used in the conflict game modes. would i also need to create a new conflict modification? or can i override what prefabs are used in the default conflict mode?

[zealous scroll]

You can override anything that you're not going to remove anything from. And also remember when you override the references stay in place, but when you duplicate you have to manually put the new prefab in it's slot.

[broken frigate]

gotcha, much appreciated!

[broken frigate]

@zealous scroll i apologise for the ping, but the same issue of the prefab not saving properly seems to be happening on the duplicated prefab as well

I remove some objects from the composition, save, close the world editor, open the prefab back up and its reverted back to before I made any changes :/

[zealous scroll]

No worries about the ping Feel free. It's probably because you aren't opening up the prefab you need to open the prefab by itself and then make the changes. That messed me up up on a bunch of things before I understood it

[broken frigate]

ah. weird. ok let me try that

[zealous scroll]

Yeah even if you hit applied to prefab it doesn't work on some things but some things that does work on I'm not sure what the difference is but it is there.

[broken frigate]

Seems to have done the trick. possibly just a bug with the workbench?

[zealous scroll]

And it will still show that it's right in the editor but once you start the game and run time it will go back to default.

Not sure if it's a bug or by Design. But yeah that totally was screwing with me until I figured it out

[broken frigate]

yea this was the exact issue i was experiencing. Weird.

[zealous scroll]

Yeah I feel like they should have that in giant bold red letters flashing in the documentation or something LOL

Especially because when you hit apply prefab it looks like it works

Is there anyway to get the enfusion mod tools if I have the game on Xbox? I want to take a look at the game mode editor

[steel plume]

Hey fellas. Guy who has no idea what hes's doing here. Could anyone tell me how i can properly trigger RHS CAS inside of world editor? I can get the KH55 to fly, hit where i want, but it doesnt collide nor explode and just flies through the terrain. Thanks

[zealous scroll]

Nope pc only for editor.

[steel plume]

Wonder if tools are available on cloud gaming services?

[zealous scroll]

Haven't heard of that but that would be cool.

[steel plume]

check to see if the arma reforger tools are available on any cloud gaming services.

[young root]

i have been looking into building GM stuff after playing a few modded servers, but the reforger tools tutorials i've come across are all for conflict. because of this i'm unsure which managers are needed and also confused because i don't even have some of the managers which seem to be suggested to use for conflict stuff is there a good place to start for learning to build GM games? thank you

[smoky sinew]

take a look at the GAMETYPE plugin in the world editor. That will add all needed managers for that gametype to your project.

[paper wraith]

So I've tried to make a new conflict scenario on a map, and got most things functioning. However, chat and GM are not functioning. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I tried searching to no avail.

[smoky sinew]

make sure you have a scriptedchatentity in your managers. That will allow an ingame chat and therefor allow GM login

[paper wraith]

Forgive my ignorance. I have both the script (ScriptedChatEntity.c) and the (ScriptedChatEntity.et) in the mod. Could you be more specific on where these should be or what they should look like? All I've done currently is copy the ones from ArmaReforger base game so far.

[young root]

oh man ty

[zealous scroll]

Remove them and go to Plugins / Game Mode Setup and run that it will add everything needed.

[unborn inlet]

the tools are available exclusively on PC for obvious reasons and the game needs to be installed prior to it, since it uses the game files

[celest tree]

Does anyone elses mods appear double in the modlist?

[potent folio]

yeah, mine do. No clue why, has't really affected me tho

[zealous scroll]

I deleted them all and redownloaded when it happened to me.

Anybody know any simple basic sustenance mods besides everon life

[zinc willow]

Anyone know who made a helmet cam mod? I just see a tiktok clip of it. Kinda cool

[potent folio]

I'm gonna be building my scenario today, no clue what I'm doing. I want to use some very basic functions of the conflict game mode, but reworking like 90% of it. Would it be easier to start from scratch and implement the supplies features and what not, or to load the scenario as a conflict map then get rid of most of it?

[celest tree]

There was this one but i tought it was broken, dunno tho havent tested it in ages
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5DC8B359DADC3AD4-HelmetCameraView

[round gorge]

there is at least 2 I know of, just look at the workshop

the name of the creator is always visible if you click on the mod

[jade current]

I'll be releasing one relatively soon

[zealous scroll]

Great to hear. I'm assuming it will work with factions yes?

[round gorge]

there is one on the workshop dunno how good this works tho

[zealous scroll]

That was my prob with everon life didnt support factions

[zinc willow]

Niceone 🙂

[round gorge]

gonna release one soon too which isnt utilizing any of everon life mod. Just epf framework

[zealous scroll]

Great!

[jade current]

Faction locked food? lol

[zealous scroll]

No it just screwed up spawning and everything with factions

With custom ones at least.

[jade current]

That makes absolutely no sense at all.

[zealous scroll]

They even told me it doesn't work with factions.

[twilit barn]

That's wild

[jade current]

Weird, not sure why anyone would write a "food" mod that wouldn't work with custom factions.

[zealous scroll]

Think their spawn script that they overrode

[round gorge]

pretty sure thats true, somewhere in the back of my brain its telling me everon life is fucking with factions

[zealous scroll]

Because it's super barebone and hasn't been worked on in ages

[round gorge]

until zelik or I release the stuff you could try to work with the one on the workshop

[jade current]

Until Zelik*

[zealous scroll]

lol

Whats' the name of the one in workshop I couldnt find it earlier

[round gorge]

[jade current]

lol. I lolled after but forgot about the cooldown

[zealous scroll]

Looking forward to both of them. Love both your guys stuff thanks for doing it.

[spiral vortex]

The attachment slot is defined by the weapon. Meaning, you need to add attachmentslotcompomnent on the weapon itself, not on an empty .et

[paper wraith]

You're the goat thank you

Another question - In GM there's a feature where you can't leave x zone without getting warned and then dying. Am I able to build this into a map in the world editor? If so, how?

[zealous scroll]

can't help you there haven't gotten to game master much yet.

Would it be doable to make a winch system for helis?

Would it be possible to make custom ranks so the ranking system would be more in-depth on my server?

[zealous scroll]

Yes you can change delete make new ranks on the faction system.

guys, can someone help me find info for a gun that im doing? I dont really know how to phrase on google properly so might be why im not finding anything. But what i wanna find is how many sight zeroig or whatever its called, the Saiga-9 has. Like for example some weapons only allow from 100 to 300 or somethig, some allow more. How do i figure out how much this weapon has?

[spiral vortex]

ask GPT ?

[sage wraith]

guys so... i guess i did wrong in using the ak74base as my template when i should have used the ak74longbase (zeroing doesnt work on the base animation wise) for my weapon. Do i have to completely restart my mod if i wanna switch to ak74longbase? or is there a way to switch without much problems?

[wintry blade]

Hi guys, I've run into this issue where my project has completely dissappeared from the load-in options. I had added and removed some dependencies, and when I added one new mod my project had gone missing, i removed the dependency and the problem remained. I can not find my terrain map now. I can only see it in the initial launcher, but once I open it or open with addons and select the right ones, I can not see the map later in the workbench.

[round gorge]

is your console tellling you something, make sure by reading everything and scrolling up, most likely an error (red ones)

[wintry blade]

The "Slough dependency" is actually my map that can't be added

[stark acorn]

dependency of Slough cannot be added

that dependency is ''

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Mod_Project_Setup#Empty_dependency

[wintry blade]

but i guess it doesnt say which one it is?

[stark acorn]

see this page

it is empty dependency

with empty name

[wintry blade]

riiight i see three of them

you are a legend man I fixed it now. THANK YOU!

[stark acorn]

just out of curiosity - how did you ended up in this state?

[wintry blade]

Hopefully that helps anyone with a missing project.

You might have removed dependencies the wrong way.

You have to go into your terrains .gproj then edit it with a notepad and remove any empty "" dependencies.

Keywords for searches: cant find project terrain dissappeared cant locate map

[stark acorn]

Did you used "Reset to default" button instead instead of deleting element from the array?

[wintry blade]

I added a mod possibly with the wrong procedure, i dont remember but it then made my map dissappear and i had removed it by deleting the mod folder from the addons folder - silly

[empty nexus]

Usually someone does something weird like add a dependency, and then to remove it they leave the field blank instead of removing for some reason, so it ends up with empty "" in gproj

[wintry blade]

would be good to have the solution pinned somewhere

[stark acorn]

its on the wiki in troubleshooting section - I really recommend to bookmark that page

in any case, I asked internally if some solution could be made - I guess there is no legit use case where one would expect dependency with name ''

[potent folio]

Trying to get a base down for a conflict game mode. Trouble is I'd really like it to be on an aircraft carrier. I've got the mod, I've got it loaded in, and the base placed on top. But every time I test, it spawns the base underwater, along the sea floor. Is there any way to fix this? Can I place some false terrain inside it or something?

[zealous scroll]

Jfc another day another BS issue. Project opened read only this morning after working fine last night and saving before bed.

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Mod_Project_Setup#Project_is_read-only this maybe?

[zealous scroll]

Possibly because of google drive desktop, which I just uninstalled so it doesn'

doesnt happen again if that was it. But project is still FUBAR'd because there's no info or way to fix projects stuck read-only after they are screwed afaik

[empty nexus]

Putting mods in onedrive folders by default is crazy

[zealous scroll]

They aren't

[empty nexus]

I mean in general, not in your case

[zealous scroll]

I just had my project folder backing up to google drive with google drive desktop app

But i think that is a no-no. I'll just do my backups manually from now on.

Still would be nice if they could address it and let us know how to fix it or make a tool for it or something. More than likely going to have to reubild my project again.

[stark acorn]

Can you send me in DM your zipped project?

[zealous scroll]

Yeah definitely. Appreciate you taking a look at it.

It was my own dumbass fault for backing it up with Google Drive after I already knew it had issues with OneDrive

[wintry blade]

agree

[wintry blade]

have you tried placing the base above the carrier, and afterwards snapping to ground so that it snaps to the top of the prefab?

[potent folio]

yes that's what I did. maybe if I hovered it above it?

I remember having to do something like that for A3

[wintry blade]

maybe the carrier is missing a rigid body

try to see if it has a rigid body component and world geometry ticked

[potent folio]

it has a rigidbody component enabled, and "Model Geometry" checked.

[zealous scroll]

model geometry only works if you have colliders with the correct prefixes setup

[wintry blade]

must have been model then i forgot

if I was you I'd try to do it the easy way and try and place a simple plain flat prop on the carrier and try to place the base on top of that prop, in case it's colliders work better - Im personally new to this but it's how i'd try to cheat it

[zealous scroll]

1.3 has collider tools built into the world editor. Can't wait for that.

So you'd just be able to throw a quick box collider on it

[potent folio]

Is there no way to just like, force the base to spawn at the actual point I specified, not on the terrain directly below?
The vics spawn just fine, and I can walk on it. If I could just force the base and respawn points to be at a certain ele it would be fine.

[stark acorn]

you can use this batch file

paste it to folder where you have your mod and then run it

[zealous scroll]

Dude thank you so much.

It worked awesome

I'll keep that file around and share it when people have the issue.

[zealous scroll]

Can anybody tell me how to get submeshes from an imported model to show up? They show in the import settings and i've unchecked merge meshes, but they don't show in the world on the entity / prefab MeshObject

[potent folio]

okay, since commissioning mods is a no no now, would I be allowed to pay someone to guide/mentor me through the tools, to the extent of their knowledge? They'd never have to open the tools, just help me understand it to do it myself.
I imagine not, just checkin

[atomic apex]

Yea got some advice from another person lol it was 60MB lmao apparently thats to many for a program in 2025 to handle.

[woeful thunder]

need help, I cant get my map to stop looking like the moon. I already uploaded the sattellite map and it loaded in this is up close

this is it zoomed out

[potent folio]

My gamemode is similar to conflict, so I began building it as that.
But now that I'm starting, I don't really want the default conflict structures. I don't want the military tents, I don't even need the build menus.
I would like to place my own, standard vehicle spawners and AI spawners, but already in, nothing that the players have to build.
Is there an easy enough way to disable all that? Like the military tent and build terminal thing? As well as the vics that automatically spawn around bases?

[dark burrow]

So when I go to open up the world Im working on everything seems to be working properly, but all of a sudden I cant load the world anymore and the world editor acts like my projects folder doesnt even exist anymore

How would one go about making a mod for additional ranks for a conflict

[smoky sinew]

Use workbench and open up a basic Conflict mode. Then save as and change the ranks/add ranks in the mod. Look up some youtube vids.

[round gorge]

I had this problem a while back I fixed it by disabling the prefab in the editor link component. But i don’t know if its the same problem ur having

Apologies for the ping but how would i do this?

wait no, i found it sorry.

Didn't seem to fix the issue for me unfortunately :/

[full agate]

Sorry man

[broken frigate]

All good! it was worth a shot o7 i might try and raise my issue to a bohemia dev or something because im at that point where i just think this is a bug.

one really weird thing ive noticed. is that if i add a wireframe shader to the prefab preview. the wireframe shader is only applied to objects i have "deleted".

Is there any way to set a trigger(I guess) to being within a certain faction's radio control? So it's only enabled if the team's radio covers the trigger or something?

[stark acorn]

might be not needed in future. After some discussion internally and some research, there was a change deployed internally to ignore read only flags on folders. Apparently Windows use read only flag on folder to mark folders which have some customization (i.e. custom icon - see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/fileio/file-attribute-constants )...

[zealous scroll]

Nice

[empty nexus]

Maybe it would be better to put projects and addons in different folder than onedrive?

[zealous scroll]

It puts them in my documents. If the user doesn't have OneDrive installed then it is just to my documents folder. But if they have one drive installed windows takes over the my document folder automatically nests it inside the OneDrive folder

[empty nexus]

OneDrive is setup to use Documents folder on all new Windows installations

You could make the argument that the user can disable it while installing Windows, but most users are not that into tech to worry about it so it's a weird argument to bring up in the first place

The correct way to solve this is to make the default location in less risky place

[stark acorn]

You can put custom folder icon anywhere - that is the root problem here

[empty nexus]

Ah sorry I was just complaining about the onedrive thing for the sake of complaining

[zealous scroll]

No idea how I managed to do this. I haven't even messed with controls yet wtf lol.

What causes Slot Manager Attachments to not work on a live server?
The grip here is a Slot Manager Attachment, and previously so was the upper receiver.
✅ It worked in Workbench
✅ It worked after publishing the mod and checking the weapon in the Scenario editor.
❌ Doesn't work on a live server, whether taking the weapon from the box directly or through bacon loadout editor.

As a result, I had to convert the receiver over to an AttachmentSlotComponent, but it doesn't make sense why I should have to.

Any suggestions? I used slot components because that's how the dovetail on the AK's work.

[hazy python]

anyone here that has worked with RHSStatusQuo? trying to fix a little patch mod for me and my friends but when I finely import the FBX file there is an error, did I import it incorrectly or did I make my mistake in blender? I get both Metafile error and wrong GUID/name error, and it complains about "assginedmaterial". I don't really know what i am doing since i have no experience so far in both blender and the enfusion workbench. Could someone give me a little guidance?

[empty nexus]

Weapons exclusively use attachment slot components, as you can see in vanilla weapon prefabs.

It is a very basic rule that if it doesnt work like vanilla, then it's not setup like vanilla.

[fervent cypress]

That's the thing, this was copied from a vanilla gun: The AK74N uses this component for it's dovetail.

[empty nexus]

I stand corrected, I have never seen this in a vanilla gun

I wonder if this is some future thing. In any case I would recommend attachment slot components as they uh.... work

[twilit barn]

Is there an easy way to exclude a base composition from being saved in the scenario's save file?

Or alternatively, a way to include compositions? Is that all done in scripting, or like a component?

[hexed oriole]

IIRC slotmanager shouldn’t be used on weapons anymore and we should start using exclusively attachmentslots from now on

[twilit barn]

This is an Arma Reforger channel, not Arma 3

[dry wigeon]

I have tried myself but its nearly not possible. Animation bolt action rifles is super difficult not because cant, but because reforger is basically “forbidding” you. If you animate the right hand the entire gun will “bug” out and jiggle like a stage 3 earthquake is happening… and no plans to fix it from the devs. I think Bale or Khaos had found a slight fix but it did nit help me
