Hi all!
How do you edit the initial supplies for the supply truck? I'm aware that the Cargo Container has a SCR_ResourceComponent and the truck has the same Cargo Prefab in the SlotManagerComponent's properties. I seem to failed where I can edit the value for the truck.

Hello, does anyone know and can tell me how to modify the base map of Everon? I see that everything is locked and I want to move and delete some of them. Thank you.

[round gorge]

there was a discussion once about this topic if the map creator wants / allows it or not.
It is possible by exporting the base game map to import it, making it editable

[spring crest]

Can you tell me how to do it?

[round gorge]

no

[nova delta]

Not on the truck

On the trunk prefab

Remove that stuff you added to the truck. You will break it

Hi, does anyone have an issue with the enfusion editor not working with some mods? I'm trying to load up this one mod but it keeps giving me these two errors. I've reached out to the mod maker and he helped me out but to little avail we couldn't get the mod working. Does anyone know a workaround for this or has experienced this and knows how to fix it, I'd appreciate it thanks.

[round gorge]

look into the console (scroll up) and look what the error is, probably a script error, which has to be fixed by the creator or by you modding the class and fixing it (if thats allowed by the license)

[surreal jay]

Yes I spoke with the mod maker and he told me that he updated the mod a couple days ago and he told me to reinstall which I did. But the issue is still present. I'm considering reinstalling the editor to see if that could fix it but I don't know if I'll lose my scenario that I'm working on so I'm kinda hesitant to do so. Do you have any other alternatives?

[round gorge]

tell us what the error is is the alternative

oh its already in the pic

as said, script error, update everything the mod and game if thats the case and the error persists the creator didnt fix it or its clashing with another mod ur also using

[humble mason]

There's a Resource Component on Cargo Entity, doesn't answer the question of how I edit the values through Truck's Slot Manager component. I know there's something on the truck that edit the values of the Cargo Prefab since Cargo Prefab on Resource Browser is 0 on current and max supplies value.

[surreal jay]

Yeah is there a way to update the editor 'cause I don't really know how to unless I just verify the game cache(which I did) also I'm not using this with another mod I'm running it as itself because I just wanna see the things I need before incorporating it into my scenario. As far as I know the base game is up to date and so is the experimental I just don't know if the enfusion editor is up to date I don't know how to update that unless it does it automatically.

[zealous scroll]

Sounds like you are in quite a bit over your head tbh.

[twilit barn]

I don't think you're getting what he said. TruNk, not truck. The truNk has cargo stuff, not the actual vehicle.

It's also not a simple value to edit. The crates that appear in the vehicle storage all have their own values depending on size. It's kinda complicated to change how much a vehicle can hold.

[daring pawn]

I think what @nova delta means is that you need to open the truck's SLOT component, then look into the one named 'CARGO', then you will see it is actually another, external Prefab.
So, navigate to such Prefab, duplicate it, then edit this Prefab (which is specifically for the trunk/cargo) , then finally edit its encapsulated.

Now, go back to the actual truck and replace the one in your "Cargo" slot for your recently edited one. It will have the new values within, even if they are not shown when you are dealing with the truck.
I don't know if you have ever dealt with importing one (or more) prefab into another, but they can actually import several of their original features, "hidden" within and not shown as one of the main Prefab features.

And, while editing the truNk (cargo) prefab, you can look into its 'SLOTS' and try messing around those supply ones. As Granps mentioned, you will notice different cargo there. You could either try to change those boxes for other ones, or click to navigate to their prefabs, duplicate one of them, edit the new prefab for more resources capacity and update, to see whether it works for you.

In such scenario, you would then have a kind of three level edited prefab:
1- Main truck
--2- Cargo (trunk)
----3- Supply box.

[daring pawn]

Or, for testing purpouses, you could just throw a lot of additional supply boxes upon your truck - editing or not their prefabs for extra storage -, just to see whether it suits your needs.

[humble mason]

So, if I want same trucks with different supplies amount, do I have to make different 'Cargo' prefabs for different values?

[daring pawn]

Most likely, yes.
For instance, for a while some friends used to have two or three versions for that same covered transport truck and also for the covered M151 Jeep. So they have changed the "Meshes" component for each one of three duplicated versions for the cargo prefab and the canvas prefab (creating new textures for each version), and also had three duplicated versions of each vehicle - 3 for the truck and 3 for the Jeep.

Unfortunately, I don know HOW you could keep three available versions of the same vehicle so, in your case, I think for starters you could only have that new, extra-supply version of your truck available.

Try to think the cargo slot as a wallet you would have at home. If you have several wallets with different amount of money inside each, you would go to the market only with the amount of money you have in the wallet you chose to take.

[humble mason]

Thanks for the help. Here's something I don't understand; we have a vanilla supply truck loaded with vanilla supply cargo. When I looked at the vanilla cargo's resource component. The values for max supplies are 0 but in live game, they're set for 1500. So where did they get that number from?

[daring pawn]

I don think that should make difference in this case. Please, note that I have never messed with the encapsulated settings mentioned by MarioRef, and Granps is very savy related to "conflict" features.
But, at least for some testing, try to check the slots of your cargo/canvas prefab, and then editing one of its supply boxes' prefab. You will see those "250" values there which technically are the max capacity you will have on the truck - once several of them are full.

[humble mason]

I'll check it out later today

[daring pawn]

Duplicate one of them boxes, and change the max capacity for something ridiculous, like 3000. Then replace one or several of the prefabs on the tuNk's slots and test in game.

[daring pawn]

and keep in mind that, once you find that would be the point you can change to get to your objectives, nothing stops you to completely revamp those supply boxes' positions. 💪 😉

[vast tundra]

I think a common problem that a lot of people are wanting to solve is the whole supply situation. A large supply stack has the same amount of supplies as three supply boxes (or even a single supply box). All of them are put at 100. Perhaps supply density needs to be increased in overridden supply containers.

I've tried to explain that update here: #1113877580714614944 message

[wild cipher]

Hi so I want to make one of my slot manager slot move with a turret bone but the slot has to be in the main vehicle prefab how do I go with doing that.
Since the turret animation is controlled by a proc anim in the turret prefab.

[daring pawn]

Did you try to edit turret's prefab? If not, duplicate the vanilla one and edit it. Then, search within turret Prefab's SLOTS component - or even actions, maybe. You might get your "Pivot ID" from there. So you could either add your new slot there and test (just remember to update your main Prefab with this new, moded turret in SLOTS), or just get the pivot's name and add the new stuff on your main vehicle (in this case, make sure to select the "RegisteringComponent" class for your new slot, and select the specific "registers" you gor your pivot's name from - actions, controller, compartment, etc.).

[wild cipher]

yes i get that i mean i cant use the turret slot manager due to some custom component requiring the slotted prefab to be put on the main vehicle and cannot be on the turret prefab

[daring pawn]

Is it a vanilla turret? If so, would you mind sharing the name or tech-tree of the Prefab, so I could try and look at it here, maybe to guess something that I might be forgeting to suggest you to look?

[wild cipher]

its a custom vehicles so the turret its its own prefab like vanila and the whole thing moves like normal
i have a screen i want to put in the vehicle but the screen can only be slotted into the main vehicle prefab
now when the turret moves the screen doesnt move with it since the turret animation is controled in the turret prefab

imagine the BTR turret and u want to add a screen to it normally you would just add it to the turret prefab as a slot in slot manager and pivot it to a bone and it would move
but in this case it has to be slotted in the main vehicle prefab so even if pivoted to a turret bone it still wont move

[daring pawn]

Got it. Yeah, i think you will have to look into "Actions" or "Turret" components within the turret's Prefab. And then activate/register that specific component in your custom vehicle, to be able to recognize its proper name/ID.
For instance, I have added this random "turret" on a van, for illumination purpouses only. But the first time I did that, I forgot to un-check the other registries, and whenever I threw AI inside the vehicle, some of them could actually control/rotate the sloted turret.

Now, the "dummyTurret" can only be used for light actions.

I don't know if I made myself clear, but sometimes you do NOT have to search for slots within the Prefab's components, but for ACTIONS (or compartments)' names instead.

Just like if you try to add some external benches from another type of vehicle (helicopter seats on a Jeep, for instance): you need to get the actions, turrets or compartments names from the bench/seat Prefab, and use them as reference in the Jeep prefab later.

[hazy canopy]

You may know more than me.. these servers are active I don’t wanna mess something up while 128+ people are playing..

So far what I believe I need to do is copy our servers ScenarioID, apply it to the “mission” config & just change the “icon”

Then post to workshop & add the mod to the server?

Just afraid that the mission config will overwrite whatever is active and change the whole map/server setup

[round gorge]

the server only updates when you havent freezed the mod version and on restart so you cant really mess up, if its wrong and cant figure this out beforehand just revert the changes and push the update again

Right, we have a test server I’ll just give it a go on there

I am trying to figure out - and maybe solve - the infamous "obstructed" issue, but I don't know whether this will help me.
I have noticed that both colored rectangles move together when I change the "entry position" values, but that's it. Do the colors have something to do with "current VS. ideal"?
I know they do not mean 'blocked", because I can access some of the purple ones. 🤔

[inland lance]

IMO obstructed more likely means that you compartmentmanager is misconfigured and not that the door is actually blocked

purple rectangle is just where the door box starts and cyan where it ends

if a door is actually obstructed the entry position sphere for that door becomes red

Yeah! After you stressed that, I have searched again, and got a similar doubt from less then a month ago, here in discussions.
Now that you have mentioned I realized that I was mixing "Actions" indexes names with the actual "DOORS" that need to be in the Compartments settings.

Thank you!

[tacit stump]

Which light flags should be used for indoor lamps/light bulbs with best look/performance ratio in mind?

[tacit stump]

also, I noticed that there is a this "distance stripes" visual artifact from light sources, not sure what's causing it and what should be tweaked in lamp component to eliminate it

Now I'm starting to get into the nitty gritty of my 'mod' https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/1386419140021063821. Does anyone know if the enfusion engine accurately simulates radio signals (i.e. effects from terrain, surrounding materials)?

[languid lichen]

yeo anyone have any idea as to why when i duplicate an emat and adjust it it adjusts the original emat?

ahh nevermind it seems to be an enfusion bug

[daring pawn]

I haven't done such thing yet, but try and take a look at this video, which teaches how to enable/disable different vehicles in different depots. I think it could do the trick for you.
You will probably need to create a new MOD and select the one with your desired vehicles as a dependency, from the beginning.

[ashen pelican]

If anyone can cast some wisdom my way how on earth do you put a character in the gunner seat of a vehicle for a cinematic?

[jaunty nacelle]

Any info on this would help!

[ashen pelican]

If anyone else wants to know in the future the solution I found was to inherit the vehicle turret for example the turret ring of a hmmv and then in the SCR_BaseCompartmentManagerComponent set the Default Occupant Name to the name of the character to be added

[lofty owl]

Can someone help me with this helmet mod I’m actually at my wits end

[jaunty nacelle]

Or if its just a bug and no way to fix, is there a way to grab just a certain pose from an animation?

[lofty owl]

In reforger tools how do I put more than one camo/material on a model?

[true crane]

i just duplicate the prefab and make a new material for that one 🙈

[digital pagoda]

I guess in the base there is something not configured in a component, you'll have to configure that like the child prefab

You can probably identify the component by looking in the script, but I think it should be InventoryStorageComponent maybe or something like that

Hey all I'm looking for someone who can help me.. I want to add patch locations to a set of helmets. The helmets are in the rhs box. They show a patch location but they don't work. I am looking at trying to build a hot fix or a helmet using rhs with velcro for patchs

[tepid leaf]

this just a thing for now or is there a fix?

[daring pawn]

Just for testing, try removing the link in the description. Maybe there is a filter for that and it's blocking your upload. Or at least writing anything before and after it.

[modern oak]

I think he was trying to help

[lofty owl]

Can anyone help me with texturing a helmet in reforger tools

[daring pawn]

Does anybody here know how to handle this situation?
Cannot make the passenger (patient) lay down.
I have posted more details in "Enfusion=>Configuration".

#enfusion_configuration message

[worldly wedge]

I think it’s in the animation graph of the helicopter,

I never did figure it out but I think that’s what it is, after messing with other stuff and never revisiting it

[pulsar nymph]

Have you tried changing the index number for the seat type?

[worldly wedge]

Yea that didn’t work

[pulsar nymph]

Like the one for the driver and passenger

[worldly wedge]

Yea I know what your talking about it didn’t change anything

[daring pawn]

Yeah. They DO work for "sitting" - you will get different poses for seat type 2, 3, 4, etc. But none of them numbers put you laid down. Not even with the specific compartment class "SCR_Patient', from the ambulance.
Most likely due to what Mortalis has said: it's something within vehicle's animations files. And several other thing didn't work either - you may check them in the message I have linked above.

[pulsar nymph]

Well doing some testing it appears it doesn’t work with any index beside 2, probably something in the animation graph being referenced

Not sure why just duplicating the vanilla one and replacing it with your model doesn’t work🤔

As that’s how it’s set up on the uaz452, it’s slotted on rather than being part of the main model

[daring pawn]

Yeah. I will perform some searches inside animations, but that's too advanced for me. But I did have noticed a "UniqueSeatGRP" in M997 ambulance's files.
Will check your UAZ mention as well, to try and get some clues from here. 😎

EDIT: nevermind, that's the doctor.

[pulsar nymph]

It worked?

[muted rampart]

Is there a fix for WolfsBuildingPack is glitching below the map when hitting Play in Tools

[velvet acorn]

This submits my mod for MANW right? Confused cause it said use a category tag but I don't see any there so im just assuming you add it like that

[bright sable]

Yes. Though I would consider uploading it as a separate Workshop entry, as submissions cannot be updated in the months following the deadline.

[velvet acorn]

Ohhh okay

I thought the rule was they would take the version that was in the workshop at the deadline

[bright sable]

That would be a sensible solution.

[velvet acorn]

Nvm

If an Entry is updated after the submission deadline and before the announcement of the Winners, it may be disqualified.

Should read the rules

🤦‍♂️

Gonna drop my mod from the comp for now just praying there isnt some major update before August 1st that breaks everything

[tepid leaf]

this is the log for my post above where the reason for failure is blank

[daring pawn]

Perhaps your firewall, antivirus or some other safety app is forbidding you to upload stuff.

[tepid leaf]

hm, shouldnt, dont have any, maybe if i run in admin? idk lol, never had trouble before

[daring pawn]

Not yet. If no better solution appears, I will follow the traditional path: watch some videos, grab as much data possible, learn the stuff and, once I can ACTUALLY make it work, create a quick, rough tutorial on how to do that specific thing. 🍻

[tepid leaf]

Yeah can’t even find admin the usual way idk

Just gonna restart and make a new mod for them

[lofty owl]

Can someone help? I’m making a helmet mod and I have no idea how to texture it in reforger tools

[small kraken]

I fixed the black scope by remembering to actually UV unwrap it...

[lofty owl]

How do I add a roughness map in reforger tools😭😭😭

[empty nexus]

It's part of the BCR texture map as per the link I sent you

[simple oar]

.

[lofty owl]

I don’t speak whatever that language on the link is, way too complicated

[empty nexus]

Well you're going to have to learn if you want to make mods that involve textures

[lofty owl]

I don’t know where any of the channels and stuff is

[empty nexus]

It is kind of prerequisite knowledge that is expected for you to have because it is not really video game specific, you can manipulate image channels in any modern image or texture editing program

[lofty owl]

I didn’t even know prerequisite was a word bro I give up, thanks for trying

[true crane]

Try to learn about PBR Material/shader. With that you will understand how to make material, texture and how to implement in Arma reforger

[lofty owl]

i added the roughness and stuff but i fear i may have messed up and i dont know how to have both the helmet textures and the cover textures on the model at the same time

[ashen pelican]

Any bone wizards able to help and explain how to move a bone from a prefab that's within another prefab with a bone animation track (With the possibility I'm going down the wrong rabbit hole the goal is to move the turret on a hmmv in a cinematic)

For future people searching long and hard for answers to moving a turret I have solved this by going into the prefab for the roof slot disabling the turret slot then re adding the turret slot in the original vehicle prefab in slotmanagercomponent and calling the slot turret and then using the the bone animation track on with the slot name as Turret and the bone being moved as v_turret_01 this will move the whole turret but not the gunner that is done using a second bone animation track with the same slot name but the gunner_idle bone to move the character

[true crane]

looks like the model had 2 material, you need set up the second material in blender and export again.

[lofty owl]

This is how I exported it to reforger tools

[true crane]

select the object and go to material and see how many is there

[lofty owl]

Do you mean this?

[true crane]

no, in blender

[lofty owl]

theres 2

[true crane]

Rename both material, Arma tools dont like when you have the .00x at the end. export and see if shows both material

[lofty owl]

i dont know how to use both materials at once so it just looks like this

[lofty owl]

Do you know how to fix this^

[true crane]

Just rename it the material.
Eg: M_Strap
M_Helmet

[lofty owl]

It worked bro I love you

[hexed spade]

Is it possible to start ArmaReforger.exe with some params that bring a console with game client, so it would be possible to have a full-workable client and a console with it?

[remote bronze]

We are not updating the game past submission deadline

[somber heron]

How do I send pics/videos lol I was hoping to show my db9 and get suggestions

[opaque jewel]

It is yeah, just create a batch file to launch it and the other program you want to run. But for the arma exe you'll need to make sure you launch the one with Battle eye.

I have something similar setup to launch a controller remapper tool.so I can use a joystick in game.

[vocal ferry]

have the issue importing a weapon system from blender into enfusion the entire weapon system has one mesh but the barrel housing group is showing up as red anyone know how to fix

[round gorge]

remove vertex color

[nova delta]

As @remote bronze said, feel free to work on it without fear of an update breaking it. We are not updating the game until after the submissions deadline in order to not discourage modders on it, nor to cause delays on the workflow for developing the mods.

That does not mean that an update for stability or fixing a bug might not come up. But if it does it will probably be small change and checked for modders.

But do not expect breaking changes.

[lofty owl]

how do i open object properties window

try finding it in the Window menu maybe in there somewhere or View maybe

i am able to make a projectile visible when it hits something right?

like a arrow from a bow for example

[steel gulch]

Have you configured the prefab?

[drowsy ruin]

good morning, i'm creating a vehicle where the doors open backwards, i tried to "rotate" the bones of the model in blender so that they would open differently (it works for me when i want to create a 5th door using the trunk bone) but here i simply didn't want to, so i decided to invert the bones so that it would open the way i was looking, i also inverted the positions of the seats so that it would make sense that you sit where you are choosing, but now i have one last problem, the animation that you are sitting on the other side persists, i was wondering if there was a way to invert this too???

[pulsar nymph]

in the animation graph you need to change the anim

so for example "get out - seat right" would need the anim for that side

it seems like you have them flipped

[lofty owl]

Fixed it it’s fine

[rare spruce]

Haven't seen this mentioned anywhere else, might have missed it, but are procedural animations being replaced with something else? That system and editor are extremely useful, it's a bit unfortunate to lose that functionality eventually, it's a very standard system in other engines.

[stark acorn]

Animation editor should be used for it

[rare spruce]

Will that have a similar node system?

[stark acorn]

You can see how S105 is using proc anims in animation editor

[rare spruce]

It looks like it preserves most of the functionality of the proc editor, I assume the recommendation would now be to transition projects to use the animation editor exclusively?

[empty nexus]

animation editor can do proc anims just fine if you like having to do 10x the amount of steps that you needed to do in proc anim editor

[rare spruce]

Oof, that's a little painful.

[stark acorn]

indeed, using Animation Editor will be way to go

[lofty owl]

how can i make this helmet invisible in 1st person

[unique lantern]

How do I change the Enemies from FIA Team to USSR Team

If you havevn't already found it out you can do it by adding the map mod as a dependency to the project then go to the mod folder in the resource browser and open the .ent

[round gorge]

alpha bias inside the .emat

[golden yarrow]

I was wondering if someone can explain to me why I can trigger a user action (for example a custom action on a ARC68 radio) that is already spawned in the world, but when the ARC68 radio is in the players inventory and triggered nothing happens. Why is that? I have the exact entity spawned on start in players inventory...

[steel gulch]

Could you give a little more information?

But from what I can guess, it will come down to ownership (regarding replication) or the user action you have setup is possibly incorrect. That being said can you provide a few images of the setup?

[golden yarrow]

sure! I have a radio called "Radio_1" which has an action that I created to call a transport vehicle.

I also have a custom player loadout that spawns that Radio_1 prefab of mine in the players inventory

[drowsy ruin]

Ok, I have it but now how do I invert it and apply it to my prefab?

[golden yarrow]

for now my custom "Call Transport Vehicle" action just creates a pop up for me to be sure it was triggered. This works fine when this Radio_1 item is already laying around in the world and I activate that action. When done from player inventory it doesn't.

[pulsar nymph]

You need to go the right seat and just change the anim

So if it’s seat passenger r1 you need to switch it to the right anim

[steel gulch]

Do you have the script handy?

[golden yarrow]

I don't understand. You mean a custom script?

or what exactly?

Also it doesn't matter whether I am spawning that Radio via the custom Loadout Manager or if I use a LayerTask for example to add that item into my inventory on init

[drowsy ruin]

Ok, but where do I do that? In the compartment manager, in the animation graph, in the actions manager, or...?

[lofty owl]

Can anyone help me add my models to arsenals from reforger tools

[pulsar nymph]

In the animation editor you need to select the player instance, then scroll down a bit to the animation for the seat you want, it should be called « Get Out Door » or something like that, to the right of there should be green dots, go to the one under the seat you need, click on it, at the top there should be a animation name something like, p_(vehicle name)get_in_door_RO1, click the 3 dots next to the anim name and find the opposite so, p(vehicle name)get_in_doorL_O1, this should invert the anim and make it match what you need

[pulsar nymph]

Search for Us.conf, then override it, scroll down to the equipment section, then the helmet one, duplicate a existing helmet entry, and drag and drop your helmet into the slot for the prefab

[drowsy ruin]

Okay, I have it, but the three-dot menu is disabled. I tried duplicating it, but it's still blocked.

[pulsar nymph]

Did you dupe all the files?

Because it shouldn’t do that

[drowsy ruin]

I can change the animations, but now they won't play. I'm losing my mind! 😂

[pulsar nymph]

What do you mean? They are playing right there

[drowsy ruin]

The second example is a copy, intended to play the animations in reverse.

[pulsar nymph]

I don’t understand? Isn’t that what you wanted

[drowsy ruin]

Yes, but all the animations are not playing now, they are blank, although I see that I have to put them all manually, I'll let you know it worked, anyway, thank you very much. 🤙

[pulsar nymph]

hm thats strange, you shouldnt have too

it should be as simple as just duplicating the vanilla anim graph for the vic and just changing a single anim

[fair bolt]

The animations you were playing were vehicle animations not player

The anim file starts with either p_ or v_

V for vehicle p for player

Is there a way to limit the amount of players per squad in the editor, right now I have it at 12 people per squad I guess that's the default and I wanna set it to six people is that doable or do I need a mod to do this?

[sage raven]

6 is the default usually.

I believe this is set per map/scenario, but there is a mod that lets you do it via server json or even in Gamemaster/Leadership settings

#1380344403314348032 does it

[surreal jay]

Thanks!!! 👍

[violet shuttle]

Hi, has anyone encountered this problem? Players take trucks with loaded supplies and transport them not to points, unload them in an open field to gain exp, which makes supplying bases with supplies pointless. Has anyone tried to deal with this or maybe it is possible to somehow disable unloading in an open field?

[somber heron]

never done this before, running off watching videos..I wanna pull my hair out lmao atleast the "3D layer lines" look cool. Only problem I can't figure out is, I duplicated the m16 prefab settings and wanted to move my left hand but no matter what I do, nothings changing its position (adjusting blender snap points, or like adjusting left hand target (I think this one doesn't do anything anyways but I figured I'd try). Any help would be appreciated 😄

unsure where to ask but im unable to load my custom map + scenario, when using the Gamemode creator from the workbench it says its all configured correctly, added navmeshes and in the workbench it does work without issue but trying to host it on a server this shows

anyone have an idea on how to fix it?

[remote bronze]

Two mods wrote to the server settings, which works fine until they are deinstalled. at which point the whole server profile config becomes invalid. That is why mods should try not to use it.

About the first problem, it looks like the mission you are trying to open does not exist. Are you suure you have the mod installed that the mission config is from? our vanilla missions do not contain GM.conf if my memory serves me right

[crude torrent]

i know its not vanilla as its a custom map i made with just the GM mode setup from a tutorial

As soon as ya said that an I read the page everything clicked, big thanks to you and reyhard, just need to figure out some weird scaling issue now lol

wdym weird scaling issues?

if its to do with bones dm me i can help

[zealous mountain]

Anyone know how to fix this?

I don't have any dependent mods with those IDs

[somber heron]

Soo I thinkkk it’s because the original OBJ was made for IRL 3D printing, so whatever CAD program they used had it at like 100x scale. I got it scaled down properly in the original weapon file, applied the transforms and scale, and it exports perfectly into Enfusion. But when I copy/paste it into the Blender scene with the animationRig_example, the scale doesn’t carry over, only the transforms do. So now I gotta figure out a way to permanently apply the scale so it stays consistent across Blender files

I’m literally learning blender as I go, so this might be an easy thing and I’m just looking past it cuz I’m dumb

[violet shuttle]

?

[pulsar nymph]

you applied transforms and it still changes scales?

[somber heron]

Yea, some weird blender quirk with importing CAD obj that used different units and the scale being baked in- fixed it by using a master Empty to scale literally everything then unlink the parent, saved as a new clean .blend for my weapon and we solid I guess.. its copying over to the other blender fine now, scale correctly

You can copy entities even from locked layers by right clicking the layer -> "Select all entites". Then Edit Menu -> Copy.

Anyone familiar with how map links work? Essentially made a roundabout way to have RaaS, and the points are capable show on map etc. but the relay links don’t populate. The createLink() is a protected function but the class isn’t so not sure if it can’t be overridden or missing something.

Also the relay lines show in workbench but not in live server which makes it more fun to debug

Workbench mode

[light belfry]

This works fine for me

But if I do the same thing with a custom map I create from the ground up, I get the errors. I think it may have something to do with the water or something that you start in prior to spawning in?

[light belfry]

For future reference, it's because in the new world, I did not include CameraManager

[smoky sinew]

Hello Zelik i dont understand what i have to do for fix clothes issue

[smoky sinew]

u know how to fix clothes issue?

Zelik send this screenshot for fix but i dont understand what i have to do?

[pulsar nymph]

whats the issue?

is it that hes wearing the wrong thing?

[smoky sinew]

doesnt matter what is wearing all clothes will on be dropped

[lofty owl]

Is there any tutorials on how to reskin while keeping the stitching and stuff

[pulsar nymph]

I doubt, unless the stitching is a different material

[hollow flame]

did you add the prefab to your arsenal config?

[violet shuttle]

yes

I even tried to add and change for the USSR faction everything related to this helmet (Balaclava, headphones, even a clean helmet)

[pulsar nymph]

Has anyone messed around with cross animating?

For example, a gun shoots and then the hatch on the turret opens to eject the shell

[empty nexus]

Could script this from inside an animation event or muzzle effect component etc

[pulsar nymph]

Kk I’ll mess around with that thanks!

[cyan wing]

So im trying to make my own faction right... I have been following some guide on yt to try to understand it...

I have done all corect (I think)

I dont understand why it dosent work when i go in world editor...

Anyone that feel nice today wanna help me out.... Pretty new to this stuff

Thanks

[viscid sentinel]

I’m kinda new to enfusion do I do all my animations in enfusion or should o do them in blender?

[lean cosmos]

anyone know of any mods that add trenches or bunkers like these ones pictured here?

[sage raven]

Trenches will do some of that

Placeables or Structures byHeine will do some other ones

[lean cosmos]

thx

[lean cosmos]

could you link that mod/s please?

[sage raven]

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/5D1039B882D90918-Trenches

Very modular, requires a bit of work on the GM side to make stuff usable

[lean cosmos]

thank you

[pulsar nymph]

The only animations you can do in enfusion is procedural animations

All other animations need to be done in blender and then imported to enfusion

The boot camps cover animations quite well

[viscid sentinel]

Gotcha much appreciated for the tip I watch some of boot camp up to where they’re baking the model and importing the textures

[pulsar nymph]

A good tip is to use the sample weapon armature

It’s all scaled and had the correct syntax + necessary info points

[wild mauve]

Yo !!!

Is there any mod or script that allows players to sleep or pass time for reforger ?

I'm making a single player scenario where the player can pass time by sleeping or skipping time.

[round gorge]

thats just base game trenches added to gamemaster, just sayn

[balmy radish]

Hi sorry if this isn't the place to ask this but im looking to have a custom weapon created. I don't have the skills or equipment to do it myself. Any advice about how to go about this or any recommendations would be appreciated

[pulsar nymph]

Watch the boot camps

They explain enfusion tools and the different systems in it, then with a basic understanding of the tools you begin and ask questions in the respective channels

[keen acorn]

im having issues when i try to upload a mod. i get a message when i upload of ""addon processing on Workshop side failed Error: Unknown Error" what the heck do i do to fix this

[round gorge]

restart tools

[keen acorn]

I have? Do you mean install and reinstall?

[round gorge]

reopen and try again

if its still not working try again tomorrow or smth

maybe server issues

[keen acorn]

unfortantely ive tried that... i never get lucky.

[round gorge]

nothing you can do about it

[keen acorn]

its made me not be able to upload mods for the last couple months

that sucks

[slow bolt]

I’m looking for information for modding (mainly character/models) I already know the workflow just need some better understanding for enfusion .

How to allow attachments on clothing ? Like sunglasses on helmets. Patches on clothes

How to simultaneously run mods in engine to test if compatibility works for other mods

[pulsar nymph]

how is the antenna on the vics set up? cant find anything in the anim graph or even in proc

[pulsar nymph]

add a mod as dependecny and load the mod

[lofty owl]

can anyone help me with a reskin

idk how to do it

[noble river]

What are you trying to reskin?

[pulsar nymph]

Any reason why an animation would work in one world but not in another?

[empty nexus]

haha wat

[pulsar nymph]

y'know, enfusion stuff

[empty nexus]

On a side note it would be nice if modders and server owners had a way to at least get information about crash reports. Since we are given software that intentionally creates cryptic/meaningless crash messages, and is designed to crash every 3 seconds.

[acoustic folio]

This please ^

[empty nexus]

https://feedback.bistudio.com/T193249

I would not be as upset by this as I am if crashes were rare. They are not. I spend a dozen or two hours per week on modding and over those hours I usually have double digit numbers of crashes.

[remote bronze]

Not "intentionally". C++ programs without debug symbols lack the info to give any more meaningful info. And debug symbols are not handed out by any software makers as it makes reverse engineering and thus also cheating very easy. Maybe we can expose some small web app that sanitizes the output as not to give away any secrets and still lets you know some more info about the callstack - but usually a crash is not super obvious and requires a programmer to load the minidump and check the stack data - which you will never get

[empty nexus]

Yes I am aware, it's intentionally setup this way to not leak too much information that reverse engineers and hackers extract anyway

It's a common practice and it's not that big of a deal if we can obtain information on those elsewhere

On a side note it would be nice if y'all fixed the crash.log so that it does not mislead people into thinking that logs written there are actually all crash related

If you just dump VMEs in there that did not actually contribute to server crash, modders end up with bad rep for "crashing servers" because people see a log called "crash" and automatically attribute all its contents to their server crashing

[frosty ravine]

Steps to reproduce are golden, lol

[empty nexus]

[remote bronze]

VMEs are also crashes of the script. and often the last entry in the log is often associated with a hard engine crash as well. it is valid as it is and will stay like that

[empty nexus]

I picked a server at random and found crash.log filled with script errors that do not cause crashes, followed by a crash without any information.

You are welcome to keep the logging like this but at least educate the user on what the purpose of the log file is, as people automatically assume the log is called "crash" because it contains "reason why my server crashed"

[half lantern]

What side of the Arma Reforger tools handles the player rank within the server?

[crude torrent]

how exactly would a buddy and me go about working on the same map with the enfusion workbench?

setting up a NAS is one thing but despite me having added him as a Contributor he cannot access my Addon entirely. he also didnt get any invite aka the highlighted point in the screenshot attached to this msg.

we would both use our own linked accounts.

[lofty owl]

helmet

[true crane]

The owner need add (email) the Contributors and publish. After that you can share the project (the editable one, not the one you download from the workshop) and the Contributors need to sync the invitations.

[crude torrent]

I did add his email in the contr. Area and i did share the project outside of arma workshop with him

[true crane]

make sure the is opening the one without the lock on

[crude torrent]

he didnt get any pending invitations

thats the issue were having

[true crane]

Check in the workshop link if he is been listed there. Also, I dont remember if you need to accept been invited. Maybe check in the bohemia website in the account settings if there is something there

[crude torrent]

he is stated there

[lofty owl]

Can you help me?

[fiery quiver]

Hey so I’ve noticed that PS5 players are experiencing a visual glitch where items appear to be silver, but on PC and Xbox it looks just fine.

Does anyone know what the fix to this is if there is one?

[snow yew]

i made one because it sounded like a simple enough idea for someone as new as me to try (it wasnt)
just search "Working Bed" in the workshop

[noble river]

I did manger to fix this on ps5. Not sure if its the correct way to fix it tho

It also looks the same as the original on pc and xbox. Ill get you a screen shot of what I changed here.

[storm gull]

Are bohemia tracking they have absolutely fuckered the paint tool in this past update?

[noble river]

This is what I changed to get it to at least look decent in the game on PS5. It was super white, now its green and not reflective. Like I said its a quick fix but the UI previews do not like it so maybe not long term.

[storm gull]

apparently I just need to updoot the sat map

[fiery quiver]

Ohh okay so with those values it looks decent, thank you. I’ve noticed that in the UI and inventory ambient occlusion is very different, so might be the lack of NMO map that’s causing it.

[wild mauve]

Thanks I for the help !

Yeah my scripting skills is as good as a fish's ability to climbing a tree.

[noble river]

Good enough for me, but im just doing some pve stuff with it. Seems like it doesn't affect it at all for the pc and Xbox people seeing the original details. Something to do with Sony and the lighting.

[lucid tapir]

whats that picture from tho?

[austere charm]

i forgot, how do i add mods so i can use them for example props etc

[noble river]

Just the camo on the helmet? Theres a good video I followed that helped me a ton. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5ICQJb1b7U

[pulsar nymph]

I’d suggest a GitHub maybe?

[crude torrent]

Also our thought process rn. If the invitation works who knows

[round gorge]

looks like arma 3

[round gorge]

github

[frosty ravine]

it's the SOG: Prairie Fire cdlc to arma 3

[lucid tapir]

oh damn, they had all of this? its a shame V67 on reforger wont have any of that

[frosty ravine]

for me that cdlc was the absolute peak of arma 3, along with the huge and detailed terrain they created. I'm not even touching any reforger vietnam content, because my expectation bar is set so high 😅

[lucid tapir]

My expecation bar was set so low

I quit playing arma 3 a bit after tanoa released

[half lantern]

How can I test the rank system in reforger tools?

I can't seem to get it to show a rank

[fiery quiver]

I just tried this, and I’ve also created a NMO and BCR map for it so I hope it’ll work. Thanks for the help man🙏

Hello how can i find the Hash ids from vehicles like:

m_vehicle": "F649585ABB3706C4",
"m_vehicleName": "#AR-Vehicle_M151A2_Open_Name",
"bIsStored": false,
"m_vehicleDBID": "686ad838-0000-25cf-0001-414d8280858a"

[fervent cypress]

First Image: I've marked the default deployment points for both the M16 Carbine and the M16 Carbine w/ M203.
I haven't see anything on the M16 Carbine w/ M203 or the M203 prefabs that explain why the deployment position is in a different spot. So I assume its automatically figuring out the collision based on the collision mesh.

My problem is in the second image: Here's an AK with a bipod attachment. I have everything working besides the fact that the deployment position isn't moving when the bipod is open. But I would presume it should move if it's purely based on the collision size correct?

✅ TLDR: How does the game know how to move the deployment collision point for an attached GL but not for an animated bipod attachment?

[noble river]

Ill check out the updated version. I did notice that during the day it looks good, during the night in game it went back to a somewhat white look on ps5. This is without your changes, so Ill have to go back and update and check it out.

[noble river]

Can anyone point me in the right direction to how to make BCR maps for things like replacing camos on helmets and jackets.
Every time I duplicate these .emats and change the class to camo it has a GPU crash. I can do half of the vanilla items without crashes and half have crashes.
I want to learn how to do a proper BCR map because right now I just take a high res screen shot of the 2d BCR map and have AI redo my camo on top but its so inconsistent. Do I have to learn how to use blender to do it proper?

It always crashes when I change the class to matPBRcamo a lot of the time. I can only use matPBRmulti or basic. This is what I screenshot and have the AI overlay the camo. How do I make these from scratch? Its a 3D model that is flattened for importing correct?

[fiery quiver]

So what you’d normally do is have the model of the item, then import that model into a program like substance painter. And in substance painter you’d apply different textures/camos, and then export that into a BCR and NMO map.

There’s lots of tutorials on this process, but theres no way to obtain the vanilla models. So the way you’ve been doing it is the only way I’m aware of.

And you don’t have to change the .emat class, you can duplicate the .emat that the vanilla item uses and then just replace the BCR with your edited one

[noble river]

Okay thank you. I thought I was doing something crazy wrong on it all with the constant crashes.

The matPBRcamo option does work sometimes, and gives you the ability to UV scale but maybe I'm just missing that option on Multi or Basic, or I have to have the right tiling of the camo to start with. Certain cloths like helmets are good with the default Tiling but some jackets make the camo so big and out frame, so I was using the UV tiling. I think I'm in way over my head hahaha. I keep just tweaking stuff to learn what it might do. Ill be here for a while.

[fiery quiver]

I’ve only replaced the texture on one vanilla item and I did it manually with photoshop, it’s tedious but if you can replace just the camo part and keep the stitching/buttons it’ll look a lot better. Also you can overlay a cloth texture with wrinkles and damage to make the cloth look less flat.

[noble river]

Okay so learned how to do the layers with masking on GIMP to get best control over where that camo is going on the BCR map. Your right this will take a while but it will look the best.

[wanton hatch]

Hello, I'm modifying the Everon map using vanilla models (adding rocks, etc.), but when I test the game, it feels a bit more laggy. Do I need to compile or optimize something?
Thank you

[twin sonnet]

Hey @little pasture , sorry to bother you!
I just wanted to quickly say that I really admire your work on Arma Reforger — you've done a great job and it's always exciting to see what you come up with.

If it’s not too much to ask, I’d love to suggest something: adding the Tunisian flag. It would mean a lot personally, and I think it’d be a nice addition for the community too.

Thanks again for all the effort you put into your mods — really appreciate it!

[robust pier]

does anyone know why reforger tools shows the enfusion logo, then closes?

[lament sleet]

Strange. Best bet would probably be too reinstall AR Tools

Or give us more information

[robust pier]

ive done this a few times already.. the tools launch, i select my mod, it shows the enfusion logo and then closes. ive tried different mods and even created new ones, all the same

[lament sleet]

Now thats frustrating. I personally never had this problem so i dont know how to fix it.
Does the game work normally? Because Tools also depends on game files i think

[robust pier]

yeah games normal, has only happened today too. just removed all mods except my local ones and tried and still no joy ..

it still says running in steam and in my task manager, but its not actually anywhere visible

[lament sleet]

Since you say its only from today, have you tried restarting your pc? Sound stupid but it might work

[robust pier]

yup

im currently uninstalling all mods to try lmao

[lament sleet]

I hope you fix it...we need more modders😁

[robust pier]

i put steve irwin on a patch thats it

[lament sleet]

Thats how you start and then you get consumed by posibilities😅

[fiery trellis]

Deployment positions are based entirely on set parameters, it doesnt calculate anything. Here in red is the weapon resting point when the bipod legs are folded, and blue is the position of the bipod feet and defines the rest position when bipod is deployed. The Stabilization Points field is to determine the position of each foot. They will rotate with the bone you set as the Pivot ID when you unfold the bipod.

For the M203, you can find it on the weapon prefab with the M203 attached. The M203 prefab itself doesnt seem to have a specific deploy point, presumably because it isnt removeable in session. (I think the GP25 is but I imagine it just has a much more general position for deployment that works for both attached and unattached GP25.)

[fervent cypress]

I found a solution. I have to set the the deploy point to a bone that I have to move via a script in time with a custom bipod deployment script.

[rustic flower]

Where can I configure and adjust the EDITOR_EDITOR_RIGHTS_ASSIGNED message. It's currently broadcast to GM's only and I'd like to broadcast the message to all users

[fiery trellis]

Are you using an attachment bipod?

[fervent cypress]

Correct

[fiery trellis]

Aha, interesting. Havent experimented with that yet

[fervent cypress]

So the problem is that the "open" bipod doesn't change the weapons collision mesh. Even if the deployment points are set on the bipod attachment.

Instead, I'm going to need to make a bone that is used for the bipod deployment, and the animated it specifically when the bipod is deployed (on the weapon) to move where the collision is.

[arctic radish]

What's the best way to generate a convex collision mesh? I've tried using the convex mesh feature in blender, but the engine doesn't seem to like the result

[blazing depot]

does anyone here know how to use the custom tracks for the Cinematic timeline?

i really wanna know bro.

[zealous scroll]

Plug-in that uses the big collider generation algorithm i forget it's name now. There's several that use it.

[arctic radish]

Can you let me know if you recall it's name? I'll look for it

[zealous scroll]

I think simple collider is one of the blender plugins

[arctic radish]

Is it this one? https://superhivemarket.com/products/simple-collider

Ah, its also available for free https://github.com/Weisl/simple_collider

[zealous scroll]

[zinc raptor]

If I wanted to make a patch for another mod/mods (IE changing a few fields in a conf) would I want to override or inherit the asset into my mod? My gut tells me override but I wanted to double-check.

[empty nexus]

You do override when you want to override something. You do inherit when you are making something based on something. Those terms are quite self explanatory.

[zinc raptor]

Ok thanks, I figured as much but then I started overthinking it and confused myself

[sharp vale]

Hi everyone, new to modding stuff in general, but wanted to know in a scale from 1 to 10 how difficult can be to edit an existing scenario to change -or add- a faction from another mod?

[empty nexus]

Override = Change how something works
Inherit = Create a child of something such that changes in something apply to the child
Duplicate = Create a copy

HF... @empty nexus u r the maker of one the mods i want to add to an existing mission lol

[snow yew]

anyone know how i fix this issue with the peertool?

[remote seal]

if this mod is from ArmaReforger/addons, then symlink addons folder of PeerPluginN to it, otherwise addon directory that contains this add through -addonsDir in startup parameters of peer

[snow yew]

ive set that

[remote seal]

it's your addon?

5EF...DC8

[snow yew]

could it be the dependency?

and yes its my addon from the workbench sorry

[remote seal]

then you don't need to define it in -addons, for example my config:

But I have symlink from .../PeerPluginN/addons to .../ArmaReforger/addons, so any dependency from workshop is loaded from same place every time

[golden moon]

!verify

[hazy mango]

Check your messages!

[snow yew]

this worked 🙏 tyty

now onto the next issue... how do i fix this?

[remote seal]

at least using diag exe, idk, I fix this randomly disabling/enabling backend, changing exe and placing other random parameters on startup

it just start to work after something

[snow yew]

yep wtf lmfao
literally just changed a few bits and restarted the workbench and it just worked, bizarre
ty btw again

[arctic radish]

Is there a way to make the clouds in my world not look like this? They look like this in any new worlds I create

[keen path]

uhhh... something else is probably wrong...
But you can edit the clouds with weather editorto make them look better

click the weather editor button on the toolbar up top and there are cloud settings

[arctic radish]

What's weird is that they are even doing this in some of the base game maps such as mptest

[keen path]

Weird, did you edit your volumetric_Clouds emat file ever?

[arctic radish]

Nope

And it's fine in the main worlds for the game

[arctic radish]

And it appears like this in the actual game outside workbench

[keen path]

What about the weather configs?
Change anything there?

Maybe the weather configs for the map are not configured properly or sth?

maybe try to copy the weather manager from arland/eden

[arctic radish]

Yeah I was about to try that

Nope

[keen path]

Did you copy it with all the parameters and settings?
Save it and restart workbench just in case for it to apply

[arctic radish]

I literally copied the entity from arland

Tried restarting workbench, same issue

Sidenote: I really wish I could have multiple world editors open at once

[keen path]

You can

[arctic radish]

I CAN?

[keen path]

Just close the script editor (it blocks running multiple workbenches)
But yo ucan run the workbench multiple times

[arctic radish]

OOOH

Is it possible that this could be caused by not having the ocean stuff setup in the GenericWorldEntity?

[arctic radish]

Nope
I'm stumped

@keen path Any ideas?

[keen path]

I know kinda what setting causes clouds to look like that...

the cloud Size XZ... If you increase the value to ~5 in the Volumetric Clouds .emat
You can circumvent the issue, but there's gotta be a reason in the map config or sth

Maybe in your GenericWorldEntity there's a setting....

Maybe the world dimensions play a part in how the colouds render

[arctic radish]

Anything diffrent in your GenericWorldEntity?

Other than the ocean, but that doesn't seem to impact it

[keen path]

Arland

You can try bigger bounds and then save it and restart it

[arctic radish]

Nope, because everything but block size gets reset to its original value when I change it

[keen path]

What if you close workbench and just change it in a text editor

[arctic radish]

Nope, gets reset when the world is loaded in the editor

@keen path Can you show me what your volumetric cloud emat?

[keen path]

I only changes this

[arctic radish]

That seems to somewhat fix it, but it still doesn't look right compared to the built-in worlds

@keen path Can you try creating a new world and set everything up and see what it looks like for you?

[keen path]

I just use the mpTest and arland, I don't hjave a terrain, I ddcunno how to make it

[arctic radish]

And it looks ok in mpTest?

[keen path]

cloud size 5

[arctic radish]

What about with the default cloud size?

[arctic radish]

Weird that it looks ok with the base game worlds with the exact same emat with a value of 1 for clouds size xz

[keen path]

yea there's another thing that breaks it I would guess it's the bounds or sth

[arctic radish]

But that then breaks it in the base game worlds

Yeah I'm completely stumped

[arctic radish]

Does anyone else have any ideas?

[desert lodge]

WHY do prefabs randomly decide to revert to previous version of themselves ;_;

[nova delta]

You probably modified them on entity level and not prefab level (prefab mode)

Entity mode are modifications you do to the specific selected entity on a specific world, and they get saved on the world files.

[desert lodge]

Potentially, but as an example I made changes to the prefab in preview, loaded a world, and placed the prefab and it was fine. Loaded back up later after a crash and it reverted back to before the changes for many of them. I'm also ensuring that I Apply to Prefab and select the root prefab when appalying changes in a world.

[nova delta]

That is quite diferent to modificstions done to a prefab, which get saved on the prefab .et file.

[nova delta]

Are those prefabs as a physical file in your modm

?

,because if not then those changes are only cached meaning that when you reload wb, they are lost

As there was nothing to save them into.

[desert lodge]

Yeah, I initally drag them into resource browser so they are saved, then continue to make changes in the preview and just save, as the instance I have open is the prefab itself and I can't "apply to prefab" yet.

[pulsar nymph]

anyone mess around with adding screen shake from buildings to explosions?

[empty nexus]

Yeh plenty of that in robots mod

[empty nexus]

Actually considered a spinoff mod that only enables shake for all explosions

But detecting their damage for scaling the shake is a little wonky

[pulsar nymph]

You should do that

Standalone mods are dope

[magic cypress]

Does anyone know how to reuse an .edds file? Since we can't duplicate it, what's the proper way to reference or reapply the original?

[empty nexus]

They go in material .emat files

[magic cypress]

Yup but for exemple if i want to export the edds to photoshop i cant right ?

[magic cypress]

I meant like in Arma 3, when you export a .paa file to Photoshop to modify it

[digital sluice]

Can’t export .edds files, best we can do is screenshot and stitch together if changing something outside the scope of .emat files

[magic cypress]

Hmm, so you must have the source image to modify it. It’s weird that Bohemia designed the system like that

[silk swan]

It also prevents people from stealing/ripping textures, so if you need the source files simply ask the developer for those.

[stark acorn]

There was some time ago TotalCommander plugin shared which had option to convert EDDS to DDS

Hey yall quick question. I’ve been running into an “allocation limit of memory” error when trying to add a small lake to my map. I tried drawing the shape as a poly line instead of spline, but it didn’t change anything. Also tried using the lake generator from both prefabs, and prefabs library to no avail. Any ideas?

[lofty owl]

Sorry that doesn’t help since it’s all in arma 3 tools

[stark acorn]

Principle of retexturing is the same. There was answer how to do the thing that you asked

If you would have substance painter sources it would be much easier to do

[lofty owl]

Should I download substance painter?

[west ice]

Anyone know of any good reskin tutorials

[pulsar nymph]

Reminder

🙏

[quaint oracle]

Hey guys, can anyone help me out with attaching a mesh to a vehicle prefab? How can i achieve this

[empty nexus]

Actually waiting on some details about explosions from BI before I proceed

[pulsar nymph]

https://tenor.com/view/disintegrate-gif-22469816

[empty nexus]

There is a bit of a problem with making it scale the size of the effect dynamically with size of explosion

However I can still make a prototype but it will be a bit dumb

[pulsar nymph]

couldnt you make it adjustable? instead of making it automatically change to the size?

[pulsar nymph]

thatd be awesome

[empty nexus]

Explosions are adjustable, that should be all anyone needs to do

But that adjustable data is not easily accessible in script

[empty nexus]

almost a copy paste from robots

[pulsar nymph]

hell yeah

is it a component?

[empty nexus]

sure

[pulsar nymph]

also thats litterly perfect thank you

[empty nexus]

here u go https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/65DC97E85035D7BE-BaconCameraShake

[pulsar nymph]

thanks

ill be adding it to vic explosions if i can lol

[empty nexus]

in robots mod I also added the component to things like tank guns so they shake the camera when they fire near you but I did not do that here

vehicle explosions should be covered already

[pulsar nymph]

grenades then xD

[empty nexus]

idk about modded vehicles

[pulsar nymph]

most inherit from Vehicle_Base, so could just overide that and add the comp

[empty nexus]

i added it to medium, big, huge and mortar blasts, tnt small medium big, fuel explosion small medium big

it should cover most vanilla explosions that are bigger than the LAV bullet impacts

but I did not test it very thoroughly so you are welcome to do that, maybe the magnitude needs to be raised across the board

[snow yew]

idk if this question is for gui or scripting but where is this thing controlled

i just cannot find it

[pulsar nymph]

has anyone tried making impact nades?

changing the trigger from timer to collision doesnt work which is weird

[true crane]

Maybe see how the 40mm works to see you can replicate for hand grande

[pulsar nymph]

crashes game when thrown

[true crane]

Rename it to holy grenade and says is a feature

[pulsar nymph]

what makes the mortar shoot automatically?

like where in the mortar muzzle component is it

[pulsar nymph]

nvm its anim graph shit

fuck that lol

[hazy canopy]

Does anyone know where to adjust the build radius of a base?

I see radio freq radius & capture radius. But I can’t seem to find the build radius

[lament sleet]

Isnt it the same as capture radius?

[hazy canopy]

I thought so, I set cap radius to 150 but when I load the map and the base building radius is still default at like 50 I believe

[neon imp]

Hey. I worked a lot in arma 3 on an altis life mod, and wondered if the new enfusion engine in arma 4 will work in the same way it works in reforger?
I.e if I start making my own mods now with arma reforger, would I be able to import them into arma4 with small adjustments?

[dense igloo]

I have made this patch, I can seen in the arsenal, but I can’t attach to velcro, someone know how I can do this?

[worldly charm]

I feel like I'm stuck on an issue that's performance related, with the workbench. Is there a way to increase the limits that the workbench has? Available memory usage, etc.

[abstract vortex]

Hi, I'm not sure in which channel to post this, but I need some help resolving an issue, which keeps me from opening my project: #reforger_workbench message

[drowsy fog]

Are triggered save/spawn 'checkpoints' available through the Enfusion scenario editor? For example I'd like to have a spawn point and armoury spawn at a location upon players reaching that location, to serve as a checkpoint and rearming area. Or if it's possible for them to only become active upon being triggered. I'm new to modding and advanced scenario editing outside of Arma 2d Mission editor. Also is there a way to have triggered AI positions, so that not every AI is spawned on the map at once to save on performance. For example I have a series of preset positions for AI around buildings, am I able to select them all and 'disable' them and have them spawn in only once a certain trigger is reached? Thanks

[neon imp]

Does anyone know if there’s performance issues with scripting in reforger?
One of the problems I had on an altis life server in arma 3 was that the server needed constant reboots throughout the day to clear up performance issues

[neon imp]

From arma 3, I’d accomplish that by having a player distance check to a hidden marker location… when player is within the distance, spawn the units. If a player distance becomes greater than say that original distance plus 500m or so, despawn the same units. You can have it in a while true loop on the player object.

Same goes for spawns. Once player distance reaches the marker location, set the new spawn as active

[noble spoke]

Anyone know where to increase the supply capacity of vehicles like the Chinook heli holds 1000 but the littlebird holds 600 which doesnt make sense lmao

[drowsy fog]

Thanks for the response and useful information. I was hoping it would be possible as I found with larger-scale missions or battles, having too many AI spawned at once massively degrades performance. Is it possible to presassign positions for them to spawn in? For example if I set up 30 units in all standing at windows inside a large apartment block, can I get it so that those exact 30 units all spawn in to those positions upon a player reaching the trigger? Or is it more a random spawner/ambient spawn?

[neon imp]

I’m not sure with reforger… but this was possible in arma 3 since you could write a script that fired on the trigger execution, that could then spawn all the NPCs anywhere, and then you can loop through the building index, find the window positions, offset them (based on the index of the window - you’d need to know which window is which so trial and error here) and then move the spawned NPC unit into the position offset from the window

When it comes to performance lag though - how many AI NPCs are you talking about when it becomes laggy?

[drowsy fog]

Like 150% budget with corpse despawn delayed by 40 minutes

[rustic flower]

Does anyone know why the command trucks aren't working in a custom conflict, all configuration should be correct. What am I missing?

[neon imp]

What does the prefix SCR mean?

[stark acorn]

Script

this convention was initially agreed to distinguish game code generated scripts from scripts created in Script Editor

[neon imp]

I'm just prefixing all of my scripts with the mod's prefix so I know which is which

[stark acorn]

good, it is even recommended over here https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Scripting_Modding#File_structure 😉

[neon imp]

I've got to say though, reforger is very powerful, but damn is the documentation bad for just getting started. Arma3 was so easy to create your own mod, script it, and create your own scenarios. I'm stuck just getting started with reforger. Nothing is really clear.

like I want a mod that is only usable on the dedicated server... I don't want clients having access to the functions to cheat, only the server running the instance should be able to use the functions... yet, I can't seem to find any documentation that allows me to understand how to query the session/player/object to determine if it's the dedicated server, or if it's just a client.

In arma3, this was achieved by simply typing "If(isDedicated)"

[snow yew]

RplSession and RplMode should work i think

if (RplSession.Mode() == RplMode.Dedicated)
  ...

but yeah youre gonna have to search game code for examples and just follow what BI does if you want a better experience tbh

[neon imp]

Any idea how I can mark the mod as dedicated server only though? That logic check is good for inside it in the event someone tries to run the mod locally... but I genuinely don't want people to see the code inside the dedicated server mod. Like the last thing I want is people joining a dedicated server and downloading the server-only mod and just perusing it at will to hack it eventually 🫠

Like ultimately I want clients to do something > send that something request to the server > server looks in it's own code and does it, and then sends back the response

That way the server can validate what's requested isn't something ridiculous like kill all players with hacking etc

[stark acorn]

I think you would get answer more quickly in #enfusion_scripting

[hazy canopy]

Anyone know how to get building assets to recognize prefabs?

I’m trying to use prefab as a base, but when I place a composition like (command tent, medical tent, supply depot) it phases right thru the prefab and snaps to the maps ground..

[pulsar nymph]

I believe prefabs have a toggle able tag on the generic entity tab at the top where it snaps to ground

Maybe disabling it would work?

[crisp pumice]

Hello Rey, I know this has nothing to do with you but I have a big problem in our server basically we keep having this error like spammed continuously and it has something to do with a mod that creates a conflict with bacon (I think), would you be willing to give it a Quick Look and help us out? Or any idea who I can ask to get some help? we are a very big group and even our developers can’t find a solution. I’ll leave the error here, if it’s off topic I’ll delete it. Thanks in advance.

[hazy canopy]

It’s not the prefab that’s snapping to the ground, it’s the (command tent/supply depots/medical tents/ helipads) won’t sit on top of the prefab, it’s as if it doesn’t recognize the prefab to exist

[drifting bridge]

When is someone gonna make a mod that allows you to type in the radio freq? It would make life so much better 😭

[pulsar nymph]

You can already type in your group which is linked to your default radio

[empty nexus]

You have mods with scripts that spam errors. Remove the mods those scripts are from and errors spam will stop.

[crisp pumice]

Thank you kind sir

[haughty scarab]

Hi everyone!

When working in Enfusion computer freezes completely at a random moment. Has anyone else had this problem?

[stark acorn]

https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/645B2325E8D46A99-COALITIONJamming2.0 looks like this mod

in any case, try to disable mods one by one and check when it starts to happening

and check which combination of the mods it is

Thank you very much !!! Your the best

my linux device was identified as PS

[fossil karma]

Will there ever be a MV-75/V-22 mod? I remember someone making one what happened to it?

[limpid cloak]

an aircraft like that in reforger would be pretty complicated, might be safe to say they hit a roadblock somewhere

[hazy canopy]

how do i get supply cache to attach to the prefab?

[fossil karma]

Its in arma 3 no? i imagine it'd be pretty simple

im not a modder so i prob shouldnt speak

[limpid cloak]

its def not simple lol

way different setup in enfusion compared to a3

[round gorge]

base game doesn’t even has a plane

[stiff pendant]

Can you try to hold CRTL and move it down along the green axis? I haven't found a way to have real exact placement options (e.g. with arrow keys or something like that) in the world editor

[cursive kite]

Can you use Vector tool to paint street lights along the roads? I can't seem to figure it out

[cursive kite]

Would be really cool to see actual weapon wearing down from excessive firing and use and then causing the jams
Although, heavy rain can definitely force enough oil out to cause jams, just using your gun is what actually starts to cause the jams from gunk building up

[quaint igloo]

anyone have the issue where the sat map is the not the same size as the terrian but it is in qgis???

[alpine venture]

so im using the helibase.et and inheriting it and adding a mesh but it then hits me with VEHICLE (E): Helicopter - no physics component! but it has a physics component

[languid lichen]

Look up the stone pillar thingy and just replace it's prefab

[swift field]

Please can I ask for help.

I saved and closed my mod. I came back later to carry on working on it, but when I open tools, the mod that I'm working on is gone. But it's still in my documents, how to I open it in tools?

[neon imp]

Rescan the folder

[wintry root]

When you open tools and click add project, select add existing project instead

[swift field]

How do I do that?

[wintry root]

How do we rescan folder? Same thing happened to me and when I got my mod back its locked. I'm so fooked lol

[swift field]

I'll try that. What causes this?

[swift field]

I did that, it doesn't find it.

[wintry root]

I'd listen to stevoyd buddy, I only got it back but its locked

[neon imp]

Like at the startup, when you first run the tool, you have to scan for the base Arma Reforger project

[swift field]

Thank you.

[neon imp]

There was something about this in the documentation regarding locked projects and unlocked projects.

EDIT: you might have to use the "Add existing project" button instead to grab your editable version

[wintry root]

Think it may be lost in the void after the crash il only getting a locked version. Kind of important its the scenario mod for my server and the community is crying at me 😂. I saw some info about inserting a clean batch but this was beyond me

[swift field]

None of that is working.

What should I do now?

[neon imp]

What's the path location for the mod that you added? to both of you; @wintry root @swift field

[swift field]

What do you mean? Sorry, I'm 100% savy with this and the lingo.

[wintry root]

C drive into steamapps

[neon imp]

the path is the location on your computer. It should be;
C:\Users*user*\My Docuemnts\My Games*ArmaReforgerWorkbench*\Addons*yourmod*\

[swift field]

C:\Users<user>\OneDrive\Documents\My Games\ArmaReforgerWorkbench\addons\Task Force Excalibur Patches

[neon imp]

You should not be using OneDrive

[swift field]

So, move it to my hard drive?

[wintry root]

I think I'm a one drive moron 😂

[neon imp]

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

[wintry root]

I thought I sorted that and deleted onedrive

[neon imp]

It happens - just make sure you follow through the guide. It's not a real local path which is probably why it's still locked.

[neon imp]

Yeah, I had to write to Microsoft to complain about their OneDrive nonsense how they enforce it on everyone, then years later say "Ohhh, you gotta pay for that" and then limit you to 5GB free storage, after years of them backing up your entire OS to it 😠

[wintry root]

Love you buddy, thank you. I will get on the case with this info.

[neon imp]

Took me about a week to sift through everything, fish out what actual files I needed and delete it all so I wouldn't get charged

[wintry root]

I better be careful then

[swift field]

So, move it to C: drive and hope for the best?

[neon imp]

Best to hvae OneDrive backup only your absolutely critical stuff you can't possibly lose (like tax documents or contracts etc), but don't have it backup stuff like games and pictures and videos etc... keep all that stuff to your own drives

[swift field]

Thank you.

[neon imp]

I don't think you can now matey... I think that's it. You might be able to get away with creating a new project locally in your drive, and then copy files out of the old location into the new location, and see if that allows them to be used?

If not, you'll have to copy the contents out for scripts, and just flat out recreate your file links and config files etc

[wintry root]

Iv been freaking out about this all day your a legend, people trying to steal my server name and everything. We need Arma police

[swift field]

And what happens to the mod that I have already published?

[vast tundra]

Anyone have knowledge on creating actions? Is it something that should be done on the prefab or the scenario and how do I make a basic action?

[neon imp]

If it's already published, it can just stay published.
If it's something you're actively developing, you'll probably need to start again in a local folder so you have proper ownership of the files.
You may want to wait for a dev to respond to see if it's recoverable, but the warning in the guides does state not to use OneDrive

[swift field]

Legend.

Thank you.

[steel plume]

Yooooo. Does anyone know if there is a way to separate audio tracks for reforger on windows? Like set VOIP to audio device 1, effects to audio device 2? I'm sure it can be acheived with a mod but was curious if its possible without a mod

[neon imp]

Not really the right channel here, mate. If it's modding help you want, then #enfusion_audio, if its not modding help and basic game settings, then #reforger_discussion would be where to ask

[steel plume]

nah, if anyone has info on it from a modding perspective then that info would help as well so this is a good channel for it. Thanks

[wintry root]

Spooderman in the house

[neon imp]

But wouldn't people who know audio modding be in the audio channel?
And people who know basic game settings be in the basic game discussion channel?
You've basically tried to hit both sides, and it's more likely you'll hit neither on this board.

[surreal jay]

Hey guys does anyone know how to add to existing stuff in the engine I'm trying to add some stuff to the restriction zone entity, like giving it a timer to despawn or something like that. Anyone know if that's possible or could you link me to a video on how to do this and if not maybe help me out I'd really appreciate it, thanks.

• what workbench did you used - stable or experimental?
• what reforger game did you used - stable or experimental?
• what tags are you used?
• what was your mod visibility set to?

[winged comet]

Hi folks, just wondering in terms of the future view for ArmA and Enfusion. Would it be wise to learn the Enfusion tools for building SP or MP scenarios or is the plan to also eventually develop an EDEN editor? I can see there's a LOT more options/power/complexity with the Enfusion tools, which can be good and bad for regular mission building tasks- but I'm wondering would it be overkill/I be wasting my time diving into mission building with the Enfusion tools for now?

[coarse escarp]

dose anyone know the hexdecimal coller for forest_pine_01_base

[sand vale]

I use it on Steam.
what tags are you used? = not tag
what was your mod visibility set to? = public

[stark acorn]

on steam you have two versions of game and tools

check the tools

[sand vale]

Please provide a method for verification.

[stark acorn]

check name in steam

you can post pic

[stark acorn]

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Mod_Publishing_Process#Experimental_version

[sand vale]

Should I use Experimental Tools or Arma Reforger Tools?

[stark acorn]

Experimental Workshop is separate from stable (non experimental) - mods published to experimental workshop are not visible in stable version of the game and vice versa (mods published to stable Workshop are not visible experimental version of the game)
let me know if that was unclear - I can adjust it a little bit

[lofty owl]

why does my model look absolutely horrible ingame compared to in tools

[snow yew]

is there any way to prevent this error in the peer tool?

[remote bronze]

There are some problems with peertools that i worked on today, so no you can not resolve this right now on your own. You reloaded the mission while peertools were connected probably?

[snow yew]

no this happens 90% of the time i open peer tools, i cant even get the peer loaded into the server

sometimes it just works i dont know why

[pulsar nymph]

Go to the texture file

[junior sail]

I was told to ask this here so forgive me if its been asked before, but how does one go about getting a vehicle to spawn already crewed? Im at a loss.

[empty nexus]

before you place it in GM press B

as in keyboard B, no clue about controller buttons

[junior sail]

gotcha, but is there a way to add it as a componenet for a vehicle or does that require scripting.

So that players dont have to press B each time

[junior sail]

trying to figure out a manned gun situation but with ai crew already present

[empty nexus]

Things that arent standard features require scripting

[junior sail]

figured as much. I thought the default character drop down in the turret component would do it but i guess that’s only functioned by the GM, B hotkey

[empty nexus]

Ah I suppose it's for vehicles that define the default occupant, not sure if turrets do

[pulsar nymph]

It’s rhs

[lofty owl]

I don’t see direct fx

Trying to blacklist a helmet attachment (Thermal) within the arsenal. (Want players to be able to use it but not save it)
Adding it to ArsenalLoadoutSaveBlacklists.conf under SCR_LoudoutSaveBlackListItem is being completely ignored during save when attached to the helmet.
When not attached (in backpack or some other inventory slot other than helmet) it gets blacklisted, so not savable which is good.

Also tried different lists with item types and modes but no luck. Anyone else experienced or tried/solved it?

[drifting hinge]

Hi guys, does anyone know how to get a character's target movement speed below 0.4 m/s?

I have lowered it in SCR_CharacterCommandHandlerComponent and it works down to 0.4 m/s but anything lower and it caps at that speed. I have an animation that moves at 0.1 m/s

I'm wondering whether there's a minimum speed set somewhere I've missed

[lofty owl]

did i follow a bad tutorial or is the ground supposed to look like that

[raw talon]

How did you get here in the first place

[lofty owl]

Just followed a tutorial on YouTube on how to make a map but I now realise it might be outdated

[raw talon]

And do you have a height map and satellite img? i.e

Ime go to the wiki, follow that guide, use instant terra

and then you can use the brushes from the library in the workbench to paint the terrain etc

[cunning portal]

I have what is probably an obvious or stupid question about modding: Is it possible to use base game things as a basis and build off of/modify them? Someone told me this isn't allowed, but I've seen vehicles that seem to be reskins/slight modifications of base game ones in super popular mods so I'm curious.

[digital sluice]

You can't export meshes or textures from the game to modify, but whatever overrides and modifications are capable in workbench is allowed. To keep it simple, as long as your modifications to base game things is done within Workbench and doesn't violate any licensing (including the Reforger EULA and the Workbench EULA), then you're good.

Then when uploading to the Workshop for public access to your mod, you must abide by it's EULA, like for instance: no malicious or purposeful game breaking mods

Probably doesn't hurt to read up on the EULAs if wanting specifics 😄

[cunning portal]

I wanted to try and build off the American mortar/mortar system in game to make an M119 howitzer, but I didn't know if I was allowed to do that. I have basically no experience with the engine but I just wanted to know if trying something like swapping out the models, animations and stats on a mortar for my own as a way to do this would be something against the rules.

That's probably not how it would work out but if it did then adapting the existing artillery in game seemed like the easiest idea

[split rain]

Anyone know why my projects are posting to the workshop with a different name? I’ve changed my name everywhere but its still using my old one

[torpid mirage]

How do I make it so I load back into a server to the same character I left as, we’re trying to do combat ops and every time we load back in we have to start with a fresh character

[pulsar nymph]

You are allowed to take a vanilla prefab and modify it

Just not allowed to modify their models

[iron socket]

I cant download my own mod any longer. I just get a generic error that the following mods cant be downloaded. Does anyone know how I would troubleshoot it to find the cause??

[neon imp]

You’d have to store whatever it is you’re progressing in, and then load it to the character when you rejoin

[noble river]

does this mean taking a screen shot of the 2d BCR map and editing it in photoshop is not allowed?? I don't want to get banned but its the only way I found out how to change camos correctly with the zippers and seams left intact.

[digital sluice]

I believe that is still allowed, just not the export of the raw texture file

[arctic bloom]

hello everyone,

I had found a mod that allows to fix a problem of brightness when we approach the windows. but I do not remember the mode, it tells you something?

[raw talon]

Not that Im complaining but does WCS prefabs have a script in their core that auto populates control points?

[vivid basin]

How in the world do I add a command to the command.conf file?! I have been staring at this tool kit for too long…

You’d have to load it into Enfusion and check

[fringe zephyr]

Hey 👋

I have made a modified Everon with new locations/buildings etc.

Iv done the main navmesh and wondering if the lowRes navmesh just as important, the AI walk around and use the buildings perfectly without the LowRes.

Reason I'm asking is that my scenario is only ~150mb but with the navmesh it is 750mb.

[hazy canopy]

Anyone made Ai use vehicles?

I used GetInNearestVehicle for the waypoint command but they just stand around doing anything but getting in 😂

[median latch]

Is there a way to make it so the in game kill count, counts killing ai instead of player kills?

[noble river]

Yeah its not scripted into the vanilla so you need to use a mod like gramps or write a script for it.

[vivid basin]

You can probably extend halt and defend behaviors to hop on nearby turrets.

Probably would do the same for mortar defenses and just make sure they fire single round barrages.

[neon gyro]

How do I make the Conflict Escalation gamemode appear so I can place it on a map?

check license it will tell you, also to use it in what form?

[balmy kernel]

So if a map was released to be fully editable under APL SA how does one go about unlocking stuff etc

Is there any tutorials on how to reskin other mods

[empty nexus]

1. Load image in photoshop (or any other image editor)
2. Reskin

[lofty owl]

I mean the extracting part

[empty nexus]

Either ask the author for the assets or screenshot it

[lofty owl]

Erm nvm

[twilit barn]

I don't think we're meant to extract textures

For vanilla stuff, most people take a screenshot and edit that, cuz the devs ain't gonna give us the vanilla textures.

[lofty owl]

I don’t know how to phrase it

Like some people retexture rhs gear

How do I do that

[empty nexus]

They take screenshots and edit them

Does anyone have a discord or contact for Oxide Three? Trying to get permission to add some different camo textures to his covers for their helmets

[neon gyro]

How do I make the Conflict Escalation gamemode appear so I can place it on a map?

[storm gull]

Hey, guys a quick question, when you create a custom faction, do you need to add weapon prefabs to an actual character you create, or you will add the weapon loadout base to FactionManager?

[high dragon]

you might have hit the limit of 5 surfaces per terrain block. you can check with the "Info & Diags" tab in the terrain tool

[storm gull]

Thanks! I'll give that a try!

[vital jasper]

In the load out faction manager there's a place where you put the "resource load out" and that's the character with the exactly load out you want the spawning player to wear. So yes, you need to config a character in a faction before you reference him in the load out manager

Hello there, I have a problem that I just cant figure out. I’m trying to set up the Counter-Attack from Gramps’ ConflictPVEREmixed 2.0 Mod, but it just wont work.

• I copied his Counter from the map, but it doesnt work.
• I tried to create it myself—still doesnt work.
• I even tried placing them much further away, but no luck.
  I’ve included some screenshots:

1. Screenshot: Loaded all essential Scenario Mods (0x Mods, 0xWorthyIslandConflictPVE, ConflictPVERemixedVanilla20, IPCAutonomous CaptureAI -dev, Worthy Islands) and opened [Gramps Scenario Eden] and tried to start it and it worked.
2. Screenshot: While Capturing there doesnt spawn any Counter Groups
3. Screenshot: After Capture

Hi, i have a quick Question. I made a Custom Arsenal ( Item Entity List) all good but where can i edit the Names and Description shown ingame in inventory and Arsenal of Equipment when i override the prefab?

[storm gull]

you were right

[arctic radish]

I'm still having this issue, does anyone have any ideas?

[digital sluice]

might have better luck looking searching through #enfusion_terrain or asking in there

[arctic radish]

I've looked and found no one else having this issue for some reason

[cursive kite]

Thank you 🙂

do anyone know how make a new car to work so can get in it and drive it im new to doing this

[neon gyro]

Is there anyone who can make me a tutorial on how to make a remote turret? Because I can’t find any updated videos and I’m very new to making mods.

[pulsar nymph]

Make a turret like the btr

And make the player position not be rigged to a bone that moves with the turret

[neon gyro]

I'm trying to put an M249 on the base truck, but I don't understand how to add a gunner. I placed the M249, and that's as far as I got because I don't know how to assign a gunner seat.

[pulsar nymph]

You added it in slot manager right?

And you can’t just add a m249 you need to make it a turret

How do you get in game chat to work on a new world

[sterile dome]

Use Microsoft Co Pilot for steps to try resolve your issue

Has worked for me a few times

[clever flame]

You need a Chat module on your Map, There are many good videos on how to set up a scenario from scratch

[sterile dome]

I have a world setup with Gamemode_editor I need it like that as when you spawn in you pick police / medic / civilian, then need the global chat working so admins can login to game master with #login

🛠️ How to Use It in World Editor

1. Attach to ScriptedChatEntity• Make sure your world includes a ScriptedChatEntity in the hierarchy.
   • This entity manages all chat channels and routes messages.

2. Configure Channels via SCR_ChatChannelManager• Use the SCR_ChatChannelManager to register and manage multiple SCR_ChatChannel instances.
   • You can define custom channels or modify existing ones.

3. Customize Channel Behavior• Use functions like:• IsChannelEnabled() – check if a channel is active.
   • ProcessMessage() – intercept and modify messages.
   • GetWarningMessage() – display custom warnings for restricted channels.

4. Script Integration• You can script chat behavior using Enforce Script:SCR_ChatChannel channel = new SCR_ChatChannel();
   channel.SetEnabled(true);
   channel.SetWarningMessage("Only faction members can use this channel.");

Tried doing the above but still having issues, the hi comes up to enter text but any messages I try send don’t appear as sent in the UI

Or are not actually sending not sure what the issue is

[clever flame]

This is the Module you have to add

[lofty owl]

what program should i use for height maps and satellite maps

[vestal quail]

Does the target system work fully as intended at this point or is there more to be done on it?

[remote bronze]

Please no chatgpt for arma modding. it is incapable of producing anyf meaningful output and just causes everyone more work when we are confronted with nonsense code questions

[crude oak]

Anyone here have a minute to help me with something?

[round gorge]

instead of asking someone to help just ask ur question

[crude oak]

Fair point.

I've got most of everything down for making a mod. I just need to know what to do to make it a placeable entity you can select in game master.

Thank you. this is what I needed. The other tutorial with the box was lacking these details.

Hello everyone, do you know if there is a mod against gamma boost?

[twilit smelt]

Big Noob Question: what would I have to learn to implement some new mechanic like thirst, water that you consume, replenishing thirst from water, adverse affect from being too thirsty, visual hud representation of thirst?

[quasi moat]

Does anyone know how to fix this error I'm getting on the console: RESOURCES (W): Clutter set '' not in cache! Config reload needed.?

[keen forge]

Gotta show a sneak peak, but if you like AI for assistance, ive collected all the wiki pages, and all scripts and api documents to help making mods and coding in arma. In the process of categorising the data and slimming it but very close. Also runs locally on your pc

[digital sluice]

from Arkensor, so probably applicable #enfusion_generic message

[keen forge]

Model im currently using that seems to produce very good result is the qwen2.5 14B. I've copied all 5731 coding scripts and the 6676 api documents. Then processing that now, so what i've already tested with a smaller sample data pool, its very handy for debugging and looking over code snipits

[keen forge]

Yes chatgpt is pretty bad. But ive had great success with claude sonnet 4. Uploading scripts into a project folder and other information on how to make scripts from their wiki managed help me a lot to understand and debugg code
