[blazing atlas]

anyone know what might cause this loading screen when I press play? I havent touched anything regarding ui

btw it never ends

[hexed thunder]

Check how many gamemode do you have in layer

[blazing atlas]

I will in the morning, its currently 12am

thank you for the response!

[hexed thunder]

maybe he's trying to load multiple scenarios

change your camera start position, next to the play button

[empty nexus]

Looks like this is still happening seemingly completely at random, maybe it's some race condition?

   RPL       (E): IReplication::InsertNodeError: Attempting to register one item from multiple RplNodes! This is a critical failure and should be brought to attention and resolved IMMEDIATELY! itemId=0x800003B2 name=ShellMoveComponent node=GenericEntity current_node=GenericEntity, item=script::Game::ShellMoveComponent, current_item=script::Game::ShellMoveComponent

It also still produces an error message that isnt helpful when it comes to actually fixing the issue, since I am not an Enfusion engine developer it doesn't automatically make sense to me

Sometimes it prints two or three of those errors at a time for a single entity being spawned

Hello! Can someone help with camera. I am trying to "Play" my project, but when I hit that green button, engine loads me in blue screen. But If I click play from camera position it gives me a character

[zealous scroll]

It's not a camera issue that means you don't have your game mode and whatever else set up properly.

[peak badge]

Shieeeet... I guess here starts all the fun with figuring out how to set it up properly xDD

But thanks for info!! < 3

[zealous scroll]

There is a thing in the tools menu or options, menu, one of them places somewhere that says game mode set up

And it will add all of the correct entities to your hierarchy. But yes, there is a lot to learn.

Plugins menu / Game Mode Setup

[peak badge]

Thanks!! It worked! But it loaded me into game master mode xDDD Will try to swap it with my needed camera somehow xD

[zealous scroll]

Time to start tinkering for like a thousand hours

[fiery shadow]

how to add Destruction to Forest if i use any vehicles ?

[subtle yacht]

i made a mod for a custom map , how do i export them for when we download the mod and we go to a specific map the .ent of my custom map overlap with the map loaded?

[peak badge]

Yeah.. So... The thing with the camera was not in the Gamemode! I am trying to make a cinematic(trying new hobby) but the thing is that my camera is just was without a camera manager module. Thing is that I've added that module into the scene, but now it just locks my camera to the main camera in the sea and don't want to use camera from Cinematic Timeline... Maybe someone knows hot to fix that?

[zealous scroll]

You shouldn't have a camera in the scene just a camera manager. If you have a camera in hierarchy it will do what it's doing now.

[remote bronze]

this would mean it was attempted 3 or 4 times to add it to replication, only the first time is valid. i am not exactly sure what operation would do this, beyond my knowledge too, but the error itself makes total sense

[empty nexus]

The operation is placing an entity as game master

A few specific entities, you probably have a few hundred crash reports with this since 1.6 tho

[blazing atlas]

just one

[blazing atlas]

same problem unfortunately

[worn plank]

Only other thing might be a duplication of your ai world or scr world

[blazing atlas]

thank you I will look into it

[blazing atlas]

so strange, nothing looks out of place let alone a duplicate, I have search ed the scene and found nothing

[worn plank]

Might be something clashing with the other default world above

[fervent crystal]

Just got a new PC and tried transferring my projects to my new PC through one drive. When I open the project it says base game project not found. How do I go about getting the base project onto my new PC? (Still have access to my previous PC)

[hollow abyss]

Do you have Arma reforger installed + ran at least once? 🙂

[fervent crystal]

🤦‍♂️ That did it, thank you.

[dusk dust]

Any idea where I would find the controls to bind the attack heli to my joysticks?? I am unable to locate them and i'm not sure what they would need to be named for me to use all the weapons. I can fly the helis just find as of now but don't have any weapons bound

[teal pike]

I know there are tons of mods that included balaclavas, but if I wanted to make my own, where should I look for information on how to do so? I've never attempted anything like this before

[left mountain]

so what is the best way to work together on a project? is it to send each other the files for the mod or to list them as a contributor?

[neon gyro]

How does the loadout saving system work? Because I added the items to the catalog, and when I equipped them and tried to save, it told me that a certain item can’t be saved. Is there a whitelist or blacklist?

[vernal pollen]

Probably to work on separate files, and only call common scripts in a shared header file/assets. I've never dealt with the contributor piece but I think 1 person must upload it and list the other(s) as contributors.

Person who uploads it at this point with the CloudFlare issues is really whoever can get the project to fully upload

[vernal pollen]

If it's the wrong faction that can cause the error, but it'll tell you about the conflicting faction

[vernal pollen]

Blender 3D model tutorials and the Bohemia wiki, really

[neon gyro]

If that were the problem, how do I make a certain piece of clothing or a certain weapon allow me to save it for another faction?

[left mountain]

Thanks, should be a better way, the contributor stuff does not seem to be working for me😕 hope they make a better way to do it.

[vernal pollen]

I'd ask in #enfusion_configuration ,my guess would be the faction setting needs to be empty/neutral for the prefab. I know you can do it on some servers no matter what, they might override the faction "barrier"

[vernal pollen]

yea I think it's more of a "nice to have" thing, you can ask the folks at the ACE Anvil or RHS how they manage their projects with multiple devs

[bright sable]

Depends on what kind of project it is. Especially for things with limited file size, something like Git is usually best.
Manually sending files would be a lot of work, avoid that.

[lament sleet]

Anyone here using workbench on linux?

I have strange problem, for example when i ovveride or duplicate a file I need to restart workbench for new file to show up.

[somber shell]

I tried it, but the viewport was glitchy on linux for me, and I couldn't fullscreen the main window for some reason on KDE, so I use it on Windows currently. Didn't notice this issue though

[severe kite]

Is there a way to make a particle emitter within a ParticleEffect to "choose" between 2 or multiple textures per particle basis?

I'd have though adding multiple textures to a single material could result in anything, but no

the behaviour of this results in this, which is not what i need

i'd need something that would make the first spawned particle's texture be chosen at random out of the 4!

(and any other particles that spawn after, of course

[empty nexus]

make it one texture and set it up as an atlas, then select random frame under animation

smoke particles tend to do that

[severe kite]

Right, sure, but what if I want 4 different texture sheets to animate through?
Like, what if those 4 were 4 spritesheets?

That is my issue,,,, I'm trying to make a spark effect, but using the same texturesheet will get very overused

[empty nexus]

Then you need multiple atlases yes

[severe kite]

But how would I implement that into the particle emitter without emitting them all at once?

[empty nexus]

multiple emitters

they have their own curves

[severe kite]

no, my goal is to have esentially 1 particle at the end of the emission, just that this one particle has 25% chance of being A, 25% B, 25& C, 25% D

[empty nexus]

Then script it, I guess

I am not sure if there is a function to use only one of the textures you assign, in which case you could do multiple atlases

[severe kite]

you can script material classes?

[empty nexus]

What? No you can script an effect and do all your particle spawning from script

Then you can spawn the emitter you want when you want

But that's not a solution and not efficient especially for something as trivial as sparks

[severe kite]

oh

[nova delta]

I see the problem in cpp side. I will report to the team. Either that or data guys should fix some prefabs

[nova delta]

Is this log somewhere around as well (%s will be different on the log)?
Bullets (projectile entity '%s' with %s) are not meant to use RplComponent! This can cause severe replication issues and negatively affect the multiplayer session.

[empty nexus]

Nuh uh, you should have like 38453 crashes from this issue though since its a mod that used to be popular Game Master FX

[peak badge]

Hello! Is there a way to pu character to the turret slot? Can't seem to find one in BaseCompartmentManager vehicle( but it is there) and character is able to seat in other seats

[wild orchid]

Hey, I'm curious if anybody else is having any issues trying to generate asset images after the latest update? I was able to generate them before without any issue. I hadn't changed my method or anything like that I'm still using the same set up as before. However, when I select my Prefabs I get the following message.

[abstract mortar]

Is anyone able to help me with this? I am stumped. https://i.imgur.com/gdVL6xN.png

[nova delta]

Thing is, even if the prefab was misconfigured. It should just make this stop working and throw an error, but not cause a crash nor attempt to register into replication twice.

It's such a finicky thing that is most likely always gonna be missed by modders even if documented.

For example, it should not allow modder even to upload during build process

[nova delta]

Isn't this what the Emitter properties allow you to do?

[nova delta]

Btw @velvet acorn. As you ask multiple times about this here and there. This is one of such examples that lead to a replication stall

That is why the error message is so aggressive in tone

[velvet acorn]

Oh bet, thank you, will keep a look out for these errors then

Appreciate the work 🫡🫡

[empty nexus]

It "only" crashes on non-diag exe btw, workbench no crashy, but server crashy, for example

Maybe it's a red herring in a way

Get it because the error is red

[nova delta]

It should crash on non diag

Diag exes are more lenient, otherwise how would you solve some issue if the program goes down with it when you open a problematic prefab or so

[empty nexus]

Ah yes, software with bugs I cant reproduce in dev

[still kraken]

Been thinking about switching from arma 3 modding to reforger modding once ive finished my next project, would you guys say that theres a very big learning curve?

[zealous scroll]

Yes

[nova delta]

It should throw assert

Just not crash

[empty nexus]

In the meantime, wtf do I do about it so it doesnt crash?

[solar mason]

I can’t get into anything at the moment, it says it can’t find bsound, is it a mod problem? maybe it hasn’t been updated yet

[umbral sluice]

Hey there, I'll ask again - I'm trying to create a car mounted S5 turret and I have a problem with optics - the camera does not follow the movement of the turret. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix it/where to look in order to debug this? I've tried looking into SCR_2DPipSightsComponent and SightsComponent code but no luck there

[severe kite]

no, these are just for texture sheet animation, what im looking is to randomly choose out of multiple sets of texture sheets so it's not the same repeating animated texture

[languid lichen]

Does the engine respect Alpha for parallax cube maps?

halp i need a shader wizard

[lime swift]

Hi, Why does the slot component ( vehicle etc) revert any changes to the scale of an added prefab and how can i avoid that?

[gray moon]

From my understanding, transformations, (Position, Rotation & Scale) are all 'reset' when adding as a slot component, I assume so it can be positioned correctly.

Best thing to do, is add the entity you want as a child-prefab

The main entity remains at scale 1, which will be reset by the Slot Manager.

The child entity (The object you want) will then remain at its relative scale from the parent

[lime swift]

Ahh nice thank you only problem i encountered is when you have the item in your inventory the added prefab is showing( example: i added wires to a drone and the wires stick out while the drone remains invisible while in the inventory.

[gray moon]

No worries, it seems this question gets asked a lot, and people get left to their own devices with out an exact understanding.
I hadn't quite tested this, but for anyone if they're looking to understand going forward.

Create the entity.

Edit the Pre-fab (Into the World Editor)

Get the asset XOB (Not the .ET, it'll crash your toolbench)

Drop the XOB into the Entity on the left hierarchy menu, it'll create an indented entity - Alternatively drop it into the world space and drag the new entity into the other creating a Parent-Child

Transform the position from there, making sure to select the nested Entity, not the Parent.
(You cannot transform the mesh in the slot component, as you're specifically using a different transformation, not the Primary Parents Entity)

[lime swift]

Thank you for the detailed explanation!🙏🏻

[gray moon]

Np, i'll update the above as I'm currently doing it, just so if anyone comes acrossing scaling / slot manager transformation issues

[lime swift]

I have seen options like inherit skeleton etc not sure if this has anything to do with it

[modern oak]

Does anyone know with Bacon's Zombies mod - Is it possible to attach a marker to a spawned group of zombies, via the scenario framework layer task > attach marker on slot entity (or something like that)

I'm trying to set up a "clear horde" task, however, the marker does not move with the group as it normally would if using a vanilla one, any ideas?

Or where I could ask Bacon directly maybe? Everything else seems to be working the same way a vanilla group would it's just the marker thing!

[tribal coral]

could anyone help me with this, im trying to take the Takistan map, build some bases on it, save it and publish it, ive managed to load the map into the workbench but im stuck on what to do next as i cant save anything i do? i know some milsim groups have done this with other maps so if anyone could lead me in the right direction i would greatly appreciate it

[pastel island]

@empty nexus

[empty nexus]

No idea I have not touched scenario framework

[slate scarab]

you mean like this? trying to figure it out myself.

[fierce flint]

Yup. My solution was to actually just override the UI the dev made and hide that portion of it. It makes no difference to the shop

[slate scarab]

yeah under iconbarter.layout? were you using the shop with zeliksbanking?

[fiery shadow]

Does anyone know how to add Destruction to Forest if i use any vehicles ?

[eternal loom]

Hello all! Here's one of my issues in the world editor, and weirdly did not find anyone answering about it on Google.

So we have :

• 1 : Concrete walls made from a spline component
• 2 : Concrete walls put manually, one by one
• 3 : Crash barriers made from a spline
• 4 : Crash barrier put manually
• 5 : wooden fence

Here's the issue : NONE of these prefabs look destructible, with anything (tried vehicles, 70mm, A tetrash*tstorm of mortar shells... at best, I have zero collision BUT it does make sounds and FXs (for the wooden one) but it's still there, and at worst, it can be a MBT crash test OR if you have enough speed, you can go through, spreading noise and FXs but still no destruction, and if you have the good idea to stop on the crash barriers, these would pop your vehicle on top of them, making it completely stuck.

I already seen this issue on the unofficial Rostov map with the airport and all metalnet fences...

I tried to add a "SCR_DestructibleBuildingComponent" or even a "SCR_DestructionMultiPhaseComponent", but it just makes the wall disappear visually and physically

Anyway, any idea would be much appreciated ❤️

[eternal loom]

Second issue :

I have a weird lighting issue where I have to choose between far shadows AND good lighting through sun orientation.

On last screen, you can see that if I do not "Disable Far Shadows", The lights are really weird and a lot of prefabs and prefabs components are constantly more or less "in the shadow", like the hospital tumulus, all the pavements and the prefabs are not bright enough or making good shadowing from the sun orientation

This said, I would want to choose the "no far shadows" option, but then the landscape itself won't project a shadow anymore, and my map is based on a big part of relief and valleys.

Screen 1 : Distant shadows is set by default (but shadowing artifacts are ON as said before)
Screen 2 : "Disable Distant Shadows" checked in GenericWorldEntity, making good lightings based on sun position, but no more landscape shadows which are very important.

[hexed spade]

Hi everyone. Do you know, is there any way to trace errors occurring within the kernel of the game or in some scripts inside mods? I often start server with several mods and after crashing there is no way to identify issue. Like, is there no stack trace at all?

Does anyone have any experience with the blender enfusion tools?

im trying to export some files but i keep getting an error message and i cant find the folder i need

This keeps appearing and my addon folder is not present when i try to search for it

[pastel island]

Is the export path your trying to use inside of an unlocked mod you have currently loaded in workbench?

[tawdry flame]

yes

ive ensured that the link between blender and reforger tools is active

[pastel island]

Hard to say without seeing your full setup

What blender version are you on?

[tawdry flame]

4.4

[pastel island]

That should work. Screenshot your workbench with your mod loaded like this

And whats the path your trying to export to?

[tawdry flame]

my resource browser is the in the bottom middle of my screen

[pastel island]

your in the world editor there not the workbench tool

Show me where your trying to export to

[tawdry flame]

im presuming the mod folder should appear there but it doesnt appear in blender for some reason

[pastel island]

Path is wrong, go to C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\My Games\ArmaReforgerWorkbench\addons

[tawdry flame]

okay thanks, ive got a new error message now but i believe its due to how i have set my perms up

[pastel island]

whats the error

[pastel island]

That may be an issue wiith your blender version. Try the 4.5 LTS thats the current

[tawdry flame]

ive had to do some weird repairs to get my pc working after my brother bricked it so the current ssd is a bit shagged

I already tryed to figure this out as well.
Only thing i can tell you: characterControllerComponent.SelectWeapon(null); will make them put it on their back.
No clue how to get them to put it in front...

I think someone said its defined in their animation or something.
Can't remember exactly.

[clear mural]

cheers bro, im probably in way over my head just starting out with my first cosmetics mod, ill keep probing around and pray something clicks

Sure np. 😉
Maybe try your luck in https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/976155605100294224.
If its true and its set by the animation this is probably the best place to get an answer.

[storm gull]

Hey guys, I am having an odd issue with my engine lately, the measurement tools' live distance portion has become massively offset from my mouse, is there anyway to fix this?
For context, left is where my mouse is and right is the live view

[eternal loom]

Same here, I just don't worry too much about it, it still works 😅

[storm gull]

To give you a possible answer its an upscaling thing most likely and probably to do with having an ultrawide monitor or upgrading yours to a bigger size

[eternal loom]

So no idea for how to make these thin walls destructible, just like in Everon?

[eternal loom]

Oh so it's maybe not supporting 4K then

[storm gull]

Do you have a destruction manager in your world and an MP destruction manager

[eternal loom]

I do not have a destruction manager, but the building are collapsing correctly, I'll still try anyway, thanks 🙂

Should I be able to see the destruction through the editor? Cause the buildings can only collapse when I publish and try it in GameMaster

[storm gull]

yea, the destruction manager helps with things like trees and walls, basically stuff that can be destroyed but doesnt have a "ruined" version of itself

[eternal loom]

Oooooh okay I see, thanks a lot! so it's just the "destruction manager" or the SCR_DestructionManager" as usual?

[eternal loom]

Perfect, thanks!

[storm gull]

lmk how it works for you

[eternal loom]

Yup let's try this out

[storm gull]

@jovial cosmos Hey odd bquestion but is the weird water generation stuff being addressed in the next update?

These are the same water generators

Well, you're my hero ❤️‍🔥

(just do not use the "create" button to search, drag and drop the pink DestructionManager, look manually for the prefab, otherwise it just crashes the engine)

Thank you so much ❤️

[storm gull]

Of course and make sure you add the MP destruction one so it works in multiplayer as well

[eternal loom]

Noted! And if you have any other good tip for me for my shadows problem, I'll take it! 😅
Thanks again!

pink prefabs?

[eternal loom]

This one (yea sorry, "prefab" wasnt the good term I guess)

[storm gull]

Do you have these comps?

[eternal loom]

Not all of these, like "Border Valley" and my "SCR_MapEntity" is a pink one

[storm gull]

thats my terrain sorry lol

[eternal loom]

Oh okay so that's normal 🙂

[storm gull]

but do you have the lighting default and generic world light entity?

[eternal loom]

Hmmm nope, I have "MainLighting" instead of the "Lighting_Default", and I do have the pink "GenericWorldLightEntity"
Should I delete the "MainLighting" one and replace it by "Lighting_Default" ?

[storm gull]

yes

[eternal loom]

Yea it gives me sensibly the same lighting issue than before : weird shadowing but far shadows OR nice shadowing but no far shadows

Added "EnvProbe_Default", still same

It's maybe due to this thing I've done following an old tutorial?

Here are two screens where we can better se the problem:

• screen 1, distant shadows are disabled, lights are good but well.. no distant shadows (problematic for relief as you can see)
• screen 2, distant shadows arent disabled and working well, though lighting is weird and nothing except roads is receiving natural light

hey guys this is a big problem id say, my mate is trying to run his work bench, everytime he loads up he gets legit hundreads of MISSING GUID lines, he can manually fix it but everytime something updates his game breaks again. He has done multiple reinstalls of the game etc and tried using experimental etc but seems to be breaking. it also seems to be only the string tables that are breaking etc... this has been a long asf fix for him so really hoping i can get some help

[remote bronze]

check for script compile errors in your console, that is more likely te source of your issue given that some of the editors are disabled

Back when i was active arma 3 player, i remember modders complained that arma 3 modding was complex, especially the physx for vehicles, but also modeling itself as there were many limits like models could be only max. 40 meters long or something like this.

Many avoided adding physx for planes and helicopters and the advanced flight model as it was too complex

Would you say with enfusion its all better and easier?

[jade current]

Better Yes, Easier No.

The easy portion being based off of the modders experience. But, if you have to ask it's probably not gonna be easy.

[tawdry flame]

im going through the base game assets to figure out the quality i can go for and many of the base game assets are approaching 300+k for vehicles, while most of the small arms are between 50-150k from my count for lod 0, so i have a question, why is it that the high poly mods i have used, RoR, Uppercut etc have such aggressive performance issues on console even when they are static props, when compared to vanilla and things like WCS and RHS as, i want to ensure the models i make are comparable in texture and model quality to base game as possible.

Have WCS and RHS found a trick to make the game engine behave or is there some sort of topology/texturing techniques that are needed to allow for high polly assets

the current answers i have gotten boil down to the enfusion engine being ass which doesnt do it for me

[unborn inlet]

that’s not actually true

[unborn inlet]

define high polygon assets in context

[tawdry flame]

so for instance 50k for a rifle or 500k for a static prop

which is rather matching vanilla or is quite a bit lower#

by the way im not insulting any of the mods ive used, the enfusion engine looks like a bit of a monster to work with sometimes

[unborn inlet]

1. use the least amount of individual textures / materials
2. use proper LODs

[tawdry flame]

makes sense, anything else i should be aware of when it comes to colliders and the like?

[unborn inlet]

there is no black magic, you just need to use a bit of common sense

[tawdry flame]

okay so i was right in thinking the game engine is actually able to handle it

[unborn inlet]

the lower the polycount for these the better. the biki is pretty straightforward about it

[tawdry flame]

obviously yeah but thats just basic optimization stuff

[unborn inlet]

yes, it does without much issues (like with any game engine out there) as long as common sense is used

having (recent thing) a 600k non lodded pair of sneaker using 3 mats with 4 texs per mat (including opacity) is obviously not gonna work great on lower speced console boxes especially if more than a single user is gonna equip that

[tawdry flame]

basically boils down to take your time and ensure the model, textures etc are actually good and not just implement things quickly

[unborn inlet]

making your own models or using proper made ones for games

rather than using random models from the internet

[tawdry flame]

yeah thats a bit mental for a pair of sneakers, the LAV is only like 250k faces and im making my own models

[unborn inlet]

using vanilla as a baseline is enough. You will notice vanilla assets (unlike previous games) are quite a bit more polygon heavy which seems to work great on consoles as well

[tawdry flame]

yeah thats what spurred this questionm

[unborn inlet]

as long as basing game optimization pipelines are used (lods, material, textures etc)

[tawdry flame]

arma 3s m16 was something like 7000 polygons, reforgers is like 90k

[tawdry flame]

of course

[unborn inlet]

modern GPUs (i guess consoles as well) have little issues crunching polygons, less so loading multiple high res textures

[pastel island]

The engines are very different

[tawdry flame]

yes

[pastel island]

You have to also keep in mind the engine older arma games on was started a long time ago

So it’s natural enfusion can handle a lot more

[tawdry flame]

im not insulting the older engines, they are honestly incredible for what they can do

[unborn inlet]

there are details like engravings directly in the models - reason being consoles use secondary mipmap of textures anyways, so you get to preserve mode detail that way

[pastel island]

Not saying you are, that’s just the context on why older arma game stuff is lower poly and lower res. Engines and hardware has come a long way

[tawdry flame]

yeah im doing that as ive seen text get a bit smushed, just requires alot of clean up

[unborn inlet]

for some you can get away with sprites on top

[tawdry flame]

yeah

thanks for your guys help its much appricated

#enfusion_tools message

[wild crystal]

In Reforger Tools when i Override the Vehicles_EntityCatalog_US.conf It succesfully overrides it but there are 4 entities that start withAPC_M113 that always register without a proper Entity Prefab file and path. I have tried adding a random prefab even the M113 Wreck prefab into the Entity Prefab path and it wont let me save the entire Entities section under the Vehicles category. This is preventing me from disabling certain ground vehicles on my server and i was wondering if anyone knew a fix for this.

[empty vessel]

Maybe just make your own Vehicles entity catalogue and only add what you want.

[wild crystal]

I can make my own catalogue but how would i override all of the other ones that i have as dependencies?

in order to disable certain vehicles etc

nevermind i seemed to figure it out have to edit the factions US.conf file and edit the list in there ill see if it works

[empty vessel]

Yep, override the faction conf, link your entity catalogue to it and as long as you use that faction in game it will be there.

[wild crystal]

ill figure it out i think that this method will work as the conf is now saving. Thanks for the help. The method definitely changed from the last time i edited vehicle stuff

[wild crystal]

Nevermind its screwed and i cant really just edit it because if i have depencies like JLTV then i have to override the original mod files in order to disable some vanilla vehicles and the APC_M113 is a vanilla vehicle without a prefab so its throwing errors. I even tried finding where the file is referenced to make my own vehicle config but as soon as i override it it wont allow me to edit the vehicles list conf reference.

[empty vessel]

This video is a little out of date and is about the arsenal, however the same concept applies with creating your own entity catalogue. https://youtu.be/98aa_y7c4Q0

I will update both the item (Arsenal) and vehicle entity catalogue videos soonish.

[potent wharf]

anyone else’s custom faction mod having issues with bacon?

[unkempt wind]

Yo I found a bit of an issue where CRX Enfusion A.I causes enemies to always move very fast like they're in combat even when they're actually not alerted

Is there any fix for this? I'd love to play Freedom Fighters with better AI but it kinda ruins it when all the civs and guards are always combat jogging 24/7

[desert spear]

yes, it's a bug and will be fixed with the next patch

[civic nexus]

I'm struggling a bit and am looking for some advice, I'm trying to connect my Bohemia account to Reforger and Enfusion Workbench and it isn't working so I tried making a new account but need to disconnect my steam to my old bohemia account and can't figure it out. Every time I try to log in on reforger it says check your wifi connection but connects to the new account perfectly. Mainly trying to disconnect steam from one bohemia account so I can add it to my new one

[jade current]

Top right corner, then click logout.

[civic nexus]

I got that part but I’m not even logged in with the old account tho. The new account I have does log in and lets me log out just fine. That’s why I’m trying to disconnect my steam account from the Bohemia website so I can put it in my new Bohemia account.

Like for some reason my current account that’s connected to steam wont log in. Don’t know why and at this point I just want to remove access to steam from my old Bohemia account. Do you know if I need to contact Bohemia?

[jade current]

Try https://accounts.bistudio.com/profile/login

Should be at the bottom. That may or may not help. My guess is that those aren't the same "linking" though.

Worth a shot though.

[civic nexus]

Yeah on the website it lets me change the email and username and stuff and shows me what accounts are connected but doesn’t give me the option to disconnect accounts. Suppose I could try Bohemia Support?

[jade current]

yes, support.bistudio.com

How do i add rank lock to vehicles ive looked in vehicle catalog but no place for it

[heavy wigeon]

how do i add an inventory to an object

well prop, it inherits directly from the prop_base.et

[empty vessel]

Take a look at the vehicle prefab under scr-editor...... Component. Override the Prefab to have access to edit the prefab.

[fickle shore]

So SCR Entity Overide?

[empty vessel]

Override vehicle prefab } edit prefab } locate scr_editorvehiclecomponent (named something similar to this) } locate the section related to rank (there are 2 options).

I am at work, so can't send screenshots.

[fickle shore]

me too and i remember seeing it was similar to the arsenal rank lock SCR script component and didnt know if it acted as the same

[wide lava]

is anyone familiar with how to give an item a supply cost in a game master mode?

[fickle shore]

still will have to be done through the entity catalog

[wide lava]

gotcha!

[fickle shore]

not in GM Mode but in workbench

[wide lava]

i was looking in the prefab itself

[fickle shore]

i think it is inventory that will determine supply cost of a specific item

config/entitycatalog/inventoryiten i believe could be off by a name

[wide lava]

I assume somewhere in entity data list?

its for a vehicle

[fickle shore]

yes it was the exact same thing i was doing gonna be vehcile and if you follow the screenshot you will have to add the item TPM was discussing with the little plus sign

[fickle shore]

here is photo i hadnt yet added the editorvehicle

[empty vessel]

Campaign budget in scr_editor.... component for vehicles works as well

[night osprey]

Good day, perhaps someone has encountered my problem and can help me. When creating a video sequence in Cinematic Timeline, I noticed that at some point the camera makes a sharp drop, which ruins the composition. What could this be related to? I will be grateful for any help!

[steel plume]

I’m not sure what you mean by a sharp drop, are you talking about an fps drop? If so, that won’t matter in the final render as the export will render it frame by frame. Also it’s best to use cinematic timeline without game mode entity in your world or else it spawns your character and other annoying things

[exotic furnace]

recreated my alma maters football stadium in arma, map is boone conflict

Looks great.

[exotic furnace]

Thank you! It took between 40-60 hours

[gloomy vapor]

Well thats pretty fast. 😉

[night osprey]

It was at 13 seconds. And unfortunately, it is displayed in the final form. But I understood what the problem was. I additionally have a script with an animation on a shaking camera. The animation is played for a certain time and then returns to its original state, causing a sharp jump in the camera. Thank you for your feedback)

Hi so, I’m trying to override ranks for weapons in enfuzion, I’m doing it by ‘spawnerdataoveride’ but it’s not actually working.

The ranks are staying the same, anyone any ideas am I doing something wrong or? I set stuff to PVT or renegade it’s showing as unlocked but when going to save its still saying the rank it was originally is needed.

Thanks in advance!

Hello guys,i am working on a crazy ai project, are you gonna enable audio streaming any time soon ?

[dense pine]

win+alt is supposed to open that menu in world editor during play mode correct?

[digital sluice]

I think also ctrl+win+alt, if thinking correctly

[dense pine]

ive tried multiple times to get it open today and its just not opening i even tried looking in shortcuts

[digital sluice]

Look on the biki for the debug menu page, if you haven’t already. Could potentially have windows key disabled in some program that might affect it, maybe?

[dense pine]

shouldnt be disabled but it may be possible

-_- apparently my new kb has a gaming mode that disables win

[worthy wharf]

Anyone know how to find out the source of a script mismatch? I'm given the 2 checksums but I cant seem to find what to do with this information in order to pinpoint the problem. I've checked server and client logs to no avail

[bright sable]

Does it happen in a live environment, or when testing in WB?

[worthy wharf]

live environment

[bright sable]

Does it happen for all players or just one / a couple?

[worthy wharf]

Its on our testing server, myself and another get the same error

[bright sable]

Try deleting the servers mods, then restart to redownload them

[worthy wharf]

will do

[bright sable]

Or if you have a lot and don't want to delete all, only remove the ones that were added or updated when it broke

[worthy wharf]

That part I did do any it just gave me a different local checksum but still the same script_mismatch
Redownloading them all, isnt too too much

[worthy wharf]

Deleted all mods from client and server, redownloaded and still getting the same mismatched checksums

[bright sable]

Does it happen even without mods in the config?

[worthy wharf]

Retried on a seperate DS that was running without mods, added it in, same thing. Tried on a 3rd DS running our full mod list, same thing, then removed my mod from that and reran it. I did unload all my mods before loading in without my mod and seems to have worked, maybe thats the issue is some mods aren't loading/unloading properly, gonna mess with it more

So pretty much works without my mod, doesn't work with it. Going to give deleting the addons another try

Put it at the end of the mod list in my config before doing that, load order was the issue

[jade current]

That makes no sense at all. Wouldn't a script mismatch, be because the server and clients have different versions of the mod? How else can the mismatch even be happening?

[worthy wharf]

Thats what I'm confused about, i deleted my entire addons folder for both the DS and my own, let them all redownload. Only thing that fixed it was putting my mod to the bottom of the addon list

There is a function in my mod that is dependent on another, i figured it just wouldnt compile/crash while trying to compile if that was the case

[jade current]

Yeah, that's weird and must be some kind of bug.

Unless, the mismatch is because, the way they're loaded for client vs server.

But, if the mod is dependent on the other, that order should be the same regardless, neither client nor server should be allowed to load the mods out of order regardless.

The bottom of the list is the first to load, last I heard anyway. Yours loading first would still force it's dependencies to load before it.

[worthy wharf]

Thats why i initially had it at the top of the list, since in the logs it showed to load in reverse, i figured let everything do its thing and then have mine load since. Right now its just a few modded classes to the ScriptedInventoryManagerComponent and SCR_ArsenalInventoryStorageManagerComponent in order to create item restrictions. And then the one function that my mod depends on is in a framework mod, which just makes printing stuff a bit more streamlined(thank you Sen)

Also the mod isn't explicitly listed as a dependency

[jade current]

If you're altering their shit it should be, then load order is forced.

If it's not a dependency and you're altering "their version" of a vanilla function and your load order is wrong then things can break.

[worthy wharf]

Not exactly altering, just using, but will add it as a dependency. First mod I actually uploaded so testing the waters trying to learn this. Have only helped on a mod until now

[jade current]

Using = dependent

The only mods you should actually ever have as a dependency are ones that you are directly using.

I.E. If I create a character mod and you wanna use those custom slot that I add, you use the mod i made as a dependency.

If you just want to use a gun on your server and their mod adds them to the arsenal, there is no need to use x mod as a dependency.

A lot of people don't comprehend this and think that if I want x mods on my server I need to create a mod that uses all of them as a dependency.

[void patrol]

I have strange issue, maybe someone will explain this to me, as Im new here.

Creating fresh new project on workbench, using only ArmaReforger.

Then:
ResourceManager/~ArmaReforger:Prefabs/Characters/Core/Character_Base.et

I see only resource variants 1. ArmaReforger. Pressing create new variant.
Edit prefab
Then changing on dropdown in new editor variant to orginal Reforger.
And looking for example on component: ActionsManagerComponent
Then I see: Additional Actions -> SCR_LootDeadBodyAction
Inside I see some values are modified, non standard.
WHY?

Why engine itself when creating overwrite modifies some values? For example sort from 0 do 999 ?

[fickle shore]

so i have built a custom map and a conflict scenario but when the player attempts to place an arsenal composite or vehcile depot etc they are floating in the air any idea why this is or a fix for such

@empty vessel you might know

[empty vessel]

No idea to be honset. Do GM placed compositions also float?

[fickle shore]

yes

[fickle shore]

im wondering if a hidden layer is there im not sure what is going on with it 🙁

[empty vessel]

I would only be guessing, but it sounds like a terrain issue in relation to a layer. Maybe ask in #enfusion_terrain channel

[jade current]

You're switching to the Original one, which had those values added to it when it was created, Those values aren't "modified", they are the "standard" ones added when the prefabs was created.

When you override you're basically creating a copy of said prefab and telling the engine to use your copy as the original. When the original is created, any values that are changed are saved with it. The sort priority in the action is set that way for a reason. The engine isn't adding those changes, the person that created it did. I think what you're misunderstanding is what happens when you click "create variant", it isn't creating you a blank unaltered version of said prefab, it's creating you a copy of the original as I stated above.

How do I make a edds pic for a loading screen?

[void patrol]

Hi thanks for response!
I think that, but when I investigating core value it states 0, but when override is.crested it have 999 on core Variant on my override. Why?
Could.you make.similar.test?

Or I still misunderstandings?

[jade current]

The original values of said thing are changed to make the created prefab work the way it's intended to.
You're overriding that prefab, meaning your prefab will have those values.

[empty vessel]

Import image and the scripts will change the format to an edds file.

[void patrol]

Thanks, clear. But I still not.catch why when you inspecting prefab in orginal core.folder. in base game. You see 0. But when.cresting.override, without.modifieng anything it shows 999 in overide version.

[jade current]

I don't know what you're looking at but, in my files that value is 999 on the base game prefab.

[void patrol]

Hmm, okay. Now.I think.you cleared.my mind!
So 0 is default, but game.itself.have modified 999.

Maaany thanks, simple.things but big confusion on my mind''' xD

[eternal loom]

Hello all 🙂
What are the prefabs and system components that I actually need to be able to locally host my map so we can test it in gamemaster mode with my friends?
I already can test it in game master, friends can DL it and test it for themselves, but we cannot host the gamemaster scenario as a local server to meet ourselves.
I guess I miss a few prefabs and components to activate it, just don't know which ones 😅

[jade current]

Did you create a mission header?

[eternal loom]

I have to? I guessed that we would maybe be able to be a few gamemasters, just putting stuff around to test it on the map, but now that I write this, I realize that we maybe can have only 1 gamemaster at a time?
To answer your question, I just created a GameMode for now.

[jade current]

To host a mission, a mission header for it has to be created. That's covered on the wiki.

[eternal loom]

Thanks and sorry for the stupid question then 😅 I'll read this and learn how to do it 🙂

[subtle viper]

hi. are there any mapmakers here that know some tricks how to make big bunkers in tools ? im very happy for DMs with tips 🙂

[hollow rampart]

bunkers require digging a hole in the ground and suitable set of objects to put into that hole

[subtle viper]

so i cant just digg tunnels `?

[hollow rampart]

no, the terrain does not support holes in the surface

the object can have mesh with a material that takes the underlying ground textures on it though

so it is basically seamless transition

[subtle viper]

okej thx

[unkempt wind]

Okay someone tell me HOW is there no Toyota Hilux (or generic 80's pickup truck) mods for Reforger??.

[subtle viper]

XD

someone tell me how we dont get any vanilla planes

[desert spear]

maps are too small for them

[void patrol]

Anyone knows how on GUI change size of chechbox?

I want to make them all bigger.

[wide minnow]

anyone know why my component script is not updating? i removed a Print but it still prints in the console in preview game world

nvm, just did Shift+F7

[rotund swan]

How can i make changes to the Intro/Main Menu screen?
I want to do two things:

1. Get rid of the annoying "Press Enter" after starting the game.
   I want the game to load into the main menu screen right away, without any user input.

2. Disable Main Menu music.
   I do like the AR music in general, i really do.
   It fits the game very well, and that is why i actually like to play with the server-wide music ON (though, i wouldn't mind a bit more variety), but i am sick of the constant Main Menu music.
   Sometimes i spend a few minutes in the menu - like when tweaking settings/controls, or when browsing the Workshop.
   I am sorry, i can't stand it, it HAS TO GO so i can keep the in-game music ON.

Is it possible to do these two things?
Any pointers as to what should i look for and where?

[empty dome]

I think u can't better ask a dev.

[fervent crystal]

Anyone know if there is a way for me to modify which weapons show up on the weapon racks? I'd like it to shows Caps weapons instead of vanilla weapons.

[unkempt wind]

The FIA variant is broken and its not been updated in 3 months :c

[vernal pollen]

You can try contacting the author on here, they might not know about that

[unkempt wind]

@vestal bridge are you the mod creator?

[vernal pollen]

Weapon racks? Caps? Gonna have to give more info on what those are.

[jade current]

Mods aren't loaded at the main menu.

[rotund swan]

i know, hence the question

[jade current]

Well if mods aren't loaded at the main menu, how are you expecting to have a mod loaded at the main menu?

[rotund swan]

I can imagine several ways - maybe some command line argument to force loading some mod at the start, or a simple file replacement (place certain files in certain paths for the game to load - like filepatching in Arma 3), etc.

[jade current]

There is no file patching here. You wanna patch a file, you gotta make a mod. You can open the game with mods loaded via start up params on pc. That's covered on the wiki.

[rotund swan]

aah, i see... -addons is a thing. Thanks, i missed that.
Now the only question that remains is whether the Workbench/game actually allows me to modify what's necessary.

[jade current]

Yes

Well wait lol

For 1, i would say that's as simple as removing a dialog. 2, Not too sure about that without some jank.

[rotund swan]

I was expecting it to be the other way around - 1 more difficult than 2.
I will have a look and see what i can dig up in the Workbench.

[jade current]

Actually, for 2 you can probably just disable the menu music entity or whatever it is called that exists in the main menu world prefab.

[rotund swan]

The thing is that i am half expecting the game/WB to throw a wrench into my plans by not allowing me to override the Main Menu stuff (or the intro) for some reason... i don't know why exactly, i am just paranoid like that 😄

Anyway, first i need to reinstall the WB. Thanks for the help.

[jade current]

Actually the main menu is a world, meaning you can't override it

The main menu world can be defined from your project settings though. I don't remember what all I had to do to get a custom one working tbh.

[rotund swan]

I knew it won't be easy 😅

[jade current]

Create a new world in the same hierarchy as the original, with the same name. Then just paste the entities from the vanilla world into your new world.

Actually, give it a new name, don't rename it until you're done making changes to it.

Otherwise it's treated as the OG and will be locked.

So either use the hard override method or change the main menu in your project settings.

[fervent crystal]

Id like to edit these weapon racks so they show Caps Weapon Pack(linked below) instead of the vanilla rifles. Currently all I can find is the option to choose just a category of weapon(Rifles, MGs, Lauchers, etc) when editing the prefab. I was wondering if anyone knows where these racks pull the rifles from and if there’s a way to make this possible?

anyone knows which layout is responsible for showing these keybinds?

[cinder arrow]

Is there a guide on how to make a muzzle attachment not seperate from the rifle at first? Where it comes with it attached but you are able to de-attach it

[jade current]

Pretty sure that there are vanilla prefabs that work that way. Look at one of them.

In fact, the vanilla m16 does that with the flash hider.

[cinder arrow]

Thank you!

[tacit lichen]

Greetings to all! I am here to ask for some feedack. I have created a game mode for our community but I was told, that other people might be interested too.

I have created an Insurgency gamemode similar to the one people know from Arma 2.

For those who do not know:
This is a PvE gamemode where you have to clear cells of enemies until you cleared the map. It runs completely without GM and on its own.

Main Features:

• Dynamically spawn / despawn enemies
• Fast mission setup (basic setup within 5 min)
• Compatible with any map
• Compatible with any faction
• QRF mode
• Vehicle Spawn
• Difficulty adjustment
• Performance adjustments (not every server is the same)
• Supply Sytem where capturing a cell gives you supplies
• Almost everything is modular/configurable. If you dont want it, turn it off

You can even turn off map overlay for players and use this for a GM assisted PvE mission.
Of course fully compatible with consoles!

I am not posting this in showcases bc I have not made any proper pictures yet and just want to check out general sentiment. Would you guys be interested?

[unkempt wind]

Sounds awesome :D

[sterile plank]

thank you 🙏 keywords for others: Vehicle Light Depot, Vehicle Depot, Arsenal,Helipad, Ammunation supply, heavy vehicle depot, Living Quarters

[void patrol]

any layout spec here? 😛

[formal falcon]

Does anyone know what class governs map labels? There's nothing to click on for me to trace it via the world editor

[wheat saffron]

how can i do a book like the mortar guidebook ?

[vernal pollen]

SCR_GameModeCampaign > SCR_CampaignBuildingManagerComponent 🙂

[wide minnow]

anyone knows if there is a guideline to use wcs or rhs as dependency? idk if i need them but looking at other mods, they require those to work. i could not find anything online

[vernal pollen]

To make them a mod dependency? I think just download it and set it as a dependency in your mod config. If you don't need them, don't use them unless you're only testing compatibility

[wide minnow]

i was planning to use them in order to make a (test) custom vehicle mounted gun. but i really dont know if i need them. just saw some mods requiring them. in fact i know zero if i need it or how to use it

[violet pelican]

Maybe someone can answer regardin characters so i edit baseloadout on chars. Some updates some not is there way to check who is inherited by who or something. How characters select what items they want etc?

[unborn inlet]

@mystic girder reading #rules when

[mystic girder]

i joke :< sorry pufu 😄

[fleet lotus]

If you make a complete mod for AR how portable will it be for to A4?

is that a different discord?

[mystic girder]

Nah you're in the right place

[fleet lotus]

someone linked a different discord i think and deleted the msg

[mystic girder]

its prolly a skem considering your question was about ArmA4 and not complaints

[fleet lotus]

probably yeah

[mystic girder]

but to answer you question until A4, reforger is a full game that is working on improving enfusion so take what you will from this information

[fleet lotus]

yeah i guess my question is a bit vague in this regard

[empty nexus]

Nobody knows. But it being the same engine it should be familiar ground to speed up progress.

[fleet lotus]

A4 ss still expected 2027 right?

[empty dome]

expected.....

[drifting bridge]

Can’t for the life of me find in enfusion where to go to adjust ranks and exp required for said ranks for the server. Anyone know which thing I have to open find and adjust?

[burnt wigeon]

I would be interested. Also interested in helping with anything i could. Still learning myself

[steel plume]

think its in the faction manager. Open your game mode world and select faction manager. If its not in faction its in one of the game mode managers

[spiral osprey]

Question gents,

Where does the non-Bacon saved loadouts profiles for players save on the server backend? I deleted profile > saves > playersaves and all of the bacon loadout saves yet folks are still able to spawn in on saved arsenal loadouts

[dark tusk]

i made a game mode script but it don't show in my world editor

do anyone know how to fix it

[remote bronze]

In vanilla they are stored in script memory. They are gone after a restart. Anything else is done by mods

[spiral osprey]

do you happen to know what folder they would be located within the backend?

[modern oak]

Hey hi! Anyone know what this prefab does?

It's within the living area prefab

[remote bronze]

They are not stored on the backend.

[spiral osprey]

what do I do to wipe kits between server restarts?

[steel plume]

any way to have a variant of a gm placeable prefab that spawns with a height offset, without changing origin in blender and having to import two separate mesh? Made a GM placeable and I want one that has normal 0, 0, 0 origin and another that spawns above the clouds without me having to manually elevate it every time but trying not to have two of the same mesh in project

[thick horizon]

Hey did you ever get any further with this?

Does anyone else have any useful imformation or know of a resource where i might be able to find some.

Google is not finding much.

[wary halo]

No not yet. But since then I've noticed my windows hide when I move mouse off the window. So I'm guessing it's to do with mouse focused windows

[thick horizon]

Hmm that means not much to me tbh.

[woeful mortar]

Hello, I have questions about some projectile components as I am trying to make an airburst projectile.

I have two options I am going down either that of using the automatic fuse with timed fuse or proximitytrigger.

If someone could please point me to the correct channel, or provide insights, I would greatly appreciate it. I won't get into detail to make sure I am in the right place.

[sturdy hill]

I've got a curious question, I've looked through videos and the tutorials on the page, but couldn't find it, how does one make a custom spawn point on a map, can't seem to figure it out and feel like I'm missing something at this point

[tired apex]

I'm looking for someone to help me create a filter so my mods appear in a section of GM, making it easier to find my creations when using GM.

Something like what's marked in the green area of ​​the image

[remote bronze]

Them staying is not a vanilla functionality. You need to check which of your mods does that and how they do it

[empty nexus]

Maybe you have GM Persistent Loadouts mod? It has its own folder and persists the arsenal box loadouts

[spiral osprey]

I already wiped the GM kits, I am talking about the saved arsenal loadouts that players can respawn into

[empty nexus]

Yeah, that mod persists those in its own folder

[spiral osprey]

for regular players, not just GMs?

[empty nexus]

Yeah, GM in that mod means game master as in the game master game mode

[spiral osprey]

ahhhh ok thank you. If I wiped the loadouts in that folder but players could still spawn in on kits after respawn, am I missing something?

[empty nexus]

Some of those mods are so frequently used people assume what they do is built into the game

So the folder is GMPersistentLoadouts, and make sure to restart the server after clearing those

One very obscure issue is some server providers dont show you the actual files of your server until you restart the server (for example one very popular provider)

So you might think you made changes to the files but actually you are hallucinating

If this is the case for you then it would still have the files despite you seeing you deleted them

You can also not use the GM Persistent Loadouts mod in your server, to see if they stop persisting

[spiral osprey]

yeah unfortunately I did that and those saved loadouts were still in there, let me check quickly.

So, unless I am mistaken, I went into Profiles > profile > GMPersistentLoadouts and I deleted the v2 folder in its entirety prior to a large update. Afterward, people were still able to spawn in on their kits even after I restarted the server after deletion.

[empty nexus]

I think the v2 folder is enough but you could just delete GMPersistentLoadouts folder. There are other mods that persist loadouts I think but I dont know which folder etc.

[spiral osprey]

I will do some testing tomorrow. The only other file I see in profile is BaconLoadoutEditor (shoutout to you) which I deleted all of the profiles and that worked, I see GMPersistentLoadouts folder which I remember deleing V2, and .save. I only deleted the entire playersave folder in .save. Everything else in profile is flabby, vrt (our whitelist mod), ZoneMarkers, and various jsons

[empty dome]

I mean you can take the example of heine's one, but its very simple, with creating a editableentitycore and a Script that add it.

[high dragon]

what determines which pre-construction object is used for free roam building objects? i'm not seeing anything in the prefabs themselves, maybe there's some config somewhere i'm missing?

trying to add a buildable wall, but it's defaulted to a large circle of stakes when you place them, which produces a lot of confusing clutter when you try placing a few in a row

actually i think i found it. if anybody else is looking: scripts/Game/Building/CampaignBuildingCompositionOutline.conf

I’m running into the same hard ~1km streaming/render cap for AI and vehicles on dedicated servers. Even with higher networkViewDistance and nwkResolution, entities visually cull around 1km.
For DMR and long-range surveillance MILSIM gameplay this is pretty limiting. Did you manage to bypass it for GM characters?

Repost - New here didn't use right channels

Hey all, hoping someone can help me with an error in the log console of my reforger workbench.
This error seems to have begun after a failed attempt at making a new faction. Not sure what I did to cause this or if it's causing other issues.
Here is the text from the console:
DEFAULT : Loading WB plugins
RESOURCES (E): Wrong GUID/name for resource @"{D1F034B5A299DDEF}PrefabsEditable/System/USSOCOM_Groups.conf" in property "m_sConfig"

[steel plume]

Is there anyone with a lot of experience with BSPs and BOXVOLs? I am having some crashing issues I believe are related to BSP/BOXVOL. Two examples, flare fired over my shopping mall crashed everyone inside, assuming due to the lighting of flare. Another was a helicopter fired a rocket inside of BSP and crashed anyone inside it. Workbench just crashes so im not able to see any logs. I'm not sure if its the larger size of BSP/BOXVOL as they are larger than anything else in vanilla as far as im aware. In most circumstance everything runs fine but I'd like to know more about the issue so I can mitigate

[empty vessel]

I have a question which I hope someone might be able to help me with. Last night I ran our first OP on a new campaign and the long range radio backpacks that I use were not functioning correctly. I have 6 squads, 2 Squad Leaders (SLs) were able to transmit and receive over the command network (including myself). however 4 of the SLs were only able to receive and not transmit (red lock appeared when trying to transmit). Any ideas why this would occur?

Details:

• Faction: RHS ION
  • Rebranded to look like custom faction
• Backpack radios were using vanilla US faction encryption key
  • This was tested before the OP with no issues (both within the same faction and different allied factions to transmit)
• Server config:
  • "VONCanTransmitCrossFaction": false, everyone was on the same faction, so I cant see why this would be an issue.
• Radio backpacks are vanilla radio reskinned with RHS backpack (used my mod for every OP with no issues)
• All SLs were using the same radio backpack prefab
• Predefined squads are used with default short range (handheld) freqs assighned (never had an issue with this)

Work around was to us the handheld AN/PRC-152A running RHS ION encryption key on channel 2 for command net. Not ideal.

I wonder if it is something to do with the faction key on the radio backpack being US (vanilla), however I don't understand why some people can transmit and receive and others only receive and not transmit.

[empty vessel]

Issue resolved. Kinda a Swiss cheese alignment occurred to cause the above problem.

• When we tested the radios, I didn't account that all players testing were admins (with GM access and all faction radios).
• The one SL that I could transmit and receive with is not an admin, however he runs training on our test server where he has GM access (I changed the server admin tool profile on the test server to give him GM access and copied that file to my ops server and forgot to remove his name). This explains why I could communicate with this SL and not others.
• As mentioned above, the radio backpacks are setup with the US vanilla encryption key and as we were all on the same faction I didn't think it would be an issue (like I mentioned earlier, tested and it worked). However, the "VONCanTransmitCrossFaction": false, parameter does not prevent you from transmitting across factions, but rather across another factions encryption key. So changing this to true worked. This will now allow me to use the radio backpacks with US faction encryption key, between allied factions across the same command comms network.

[fleet lotus]

Is it possible to test with multiple clients in workbench? If so, how?

[remote bronze]

search for "peer tool" on discord or online, it is a plugin in the world editor to do just what you need

[lethal cosmos]

Hey all, just a question that I'm sure has a simple answer: I'm making a composition and everything is working, except for disassembling it, the option never shows up for the player. What do I need to add to this to fix this?

[muted rampart]

Has anyone made a ticket system for reforger yet? Like Squad has it ?

[formal falcon]

Folks, how does idle item deletion work? If I drop a mag on the ground, what systems govern if/when it's deleted? What classes?

[modern oak]

Hi, currently trying to override the prefab for rockets i.e. ammo_rocket_RPG75 - Why is this not saving my changes when I'm messing with the components? Tick a box, save, take a look and it's reverted back to unticked?

[modern oak]

Maybe this?

[formal falcon]

Oh ho! A Garbage system, cheers RC! (also, nice to see you!)

[modern oak]

So we meet again!

[formal falcon]

ok I don't think much of the object lifetime system is exposed in Enfusion Script, sadly. All I can find is that vehicles with resources loaded have an extended lifetime. It also covers decals and destruction chunk geometry, but that's it. Not much about dropped items. GarbageSystem is just a bunch of external statements

[jade current]

If you're specifically looking for the functionality for empty mags being deleted, you're not gonna find it.

[strange steeple]

Hello everyone, I am trying to get into moding/creation and figured this would be a good place to get direction or recommendations.

Trying to start with easy goals and work my way up.

1. Adjust the protractor size in game to match grid squares and change the wording from radians to mils. ( I assume this would be texture work?)
2. Add another postion to the Mortor being Gunner(aims) and Assistant gunner(Fires) the round. That way I can add two A.I to the M252 and have them fire it. (I take it this would be scripting?)

Figured Id Ask here and get some help or guidance on where to begin etc. Appreciate any feedback. If DM would be better feel free to.

[jade current]

If you have little to no experience, then the first thing you need to do is get on the wiki and read as much as you can.

[vernal pollen]

Watch the modding bootcamp vids on YT, read Biki, then make the required 1,001 mistakes in WB as you learn your way around

[jade current]

The modding videos are useless if he doesn't understand the basics. Little to no experience = Read things, know basic underlying structure of video games AND Enfusion specific things = Watch things.

[formal falcon]

I was looking for some broad understanding about item garbage collection. I don’t specifically care about mags, I want to know min/max lifespan for any dropped object. What defaults, what types, what exceptions.
All this is opaque, as I said it’s not part of the managed layer

[jade current]

That's all you get.

[formal falcon]

Where is that within the editor? Is there a base prefab that all carryables inherit from? I don't quite know the terminology. There's carriables, gadgets etc

[jade current]

In the systems config, specifically the garbage system.

If you read the name of the rule that will give some indication of things.

[formal falcon]

Oh I see! So it looks like this might be per-item, but this is infact creating a set of rules with the garbage system will apply at runtime. Gotcha. It's centralised, and not what I thought first, which was every object has to have a garbage rule

[jade current]

Seems you may need to broaden your understanding of how the game/engine work.

[formal falcon]

Yeah no kidding, it's why I'm in here asking questions. You're witnessing learning in real-time haha

[jade current]

Your first source of learning should be reading the wiki.

[formal falcon]

In an ideal world, I'm sure everyone would do that

[strange steeple]

If you use ChatGPT it will tell you where everything is. For example I found the protractor (mapruler.layout) and then found the Script that I need to change to resize it etc. It can help you if you get stuck. But I agree with you completely, the wiki is a lot of infomation overload, espically when you are trying to do something specific.

[jade current]

In a not ideal world, you're still required to know certain things before you can do other things.

You can't be a racecar driver without knowing how to drive.

[formal falcon]

You wanna keep talking? I can do that. I came in here to ask, and you answered. If you stick to your own rules you should have asked me to look at the wiki. So please be consistent. Don't give me an answer THEN complain about reading the wiki

[strange steeple]

You don't tell someone to read a book on how to drive, you teach them form someone experienced. Also anyone can read the wiki, the purpose of the form is to be pointed in the right direction like for example..... "hey, that thing you wanna do is a script process, so you will need to review scripts and general layout information, not animation" this reduces time increases ones ability to carry out the mod(goal) they wanted to accomplish without getting bogged down.

[jade current]

I never said these were my own rules, I made it clear that your first source of information should be the wiki. That's why it exists. If you think that's me complaining, then you're highly mistaken. If you don't read the wiki to learn the underlying structure of things, no one can be much help to you without doing it for you. If I tell you to modify a component on a prefab and you don't know what any of that is, I'm then "required" to teach you those things as well. So, yes. Your first source of information should be the wiki, you need to learn what things are before you can actually make changes to them and understand what you're actually doing.

[unkempt wind]

is there a way to configure the eye relief in ADSsway mod? (like the scope being black when it's misaligned from your eye)

because I wanna keep the sway but also want scopes to be actually usable

[formal tartan]

Some people have different tolerance levels for questions.

I personally don't see anything wrong with the questions you asked, but if people have been constantly asked the same questions, or very simple questions that could easily be answered by the Wiki then I can see why they would be annoyed.

I do agree with what @jade current says though, you should definitely try the wiki, and try and find as much info as possible, that way when you ask questions about something you aren't 100% on you can say something like:
"I was trying to do X and I found Y and Z on the wiki, could someone maybe explain it better?"

Ps

The wiki sometimes makes zero sense to no one other than the dude who wrote it. (In my opinion).

Edit - Spelling

[formal falcon]

There is no good information on the wiki about garbage collection in Arma Reforger, sadly

[formal tartan]

Are you trying to set up a global garbage collection? Could you also send me the wiki page you are looking at?

[round gorge]

[eternal loom]

Hello all! 🙂
I was wondering if it was possible to scale up/down, resize a prefab through a "BaseSlotComponent" as explained by Bohemia? I'd like to add a lightbar to my police car but without "scale" variable, I'm a bit stuck :/

Thanks!

[gloomy vapor]

I think i've read somewhere, that scaling of objects does not work ( is not supported ) in Enfusion rn.
But not sure if it was characters only or any object...

[eternal loom]

Only for the BaseSoltComponent then I guess? Cause I've already up/down scaled a lot of things 😅

[gloomy vapor]

Oh okay. 🙂
Yeah i will leave this to someone, who rly knows. 😉

[formal tartan]

Import the asset that you want to attach, scale it's prefab, then attach it via BaseSlotComponent

[eternal loom]

I think I already tried this, and just to be sure, it could also work with Vanilla assets that I duplicate in my custom folder?
If I scale down the asset then "apply to prefab", it will be "scaled down by default" and it should work?

[formal tartan]

I believe so yes, I'm not at my PC rn but I believe that should work.

What are you trying to attach?

[eternal loom]

It's late now but I'll definitely try this tomorrow, could be the lil trick I havnt tried yet 😄 Thanks a lot!

[formal tartan]

No worries, if it doesn't work, feel free to DM me. I am conveniently also working with scaling and attaching objects to cars rn 😄

[eternal loom]

Hahaha sounds perfect! Need that bullbar and a nice lightbar on that police car cause for now it doesnt look very good 😅

[formal tartan]

Ah yea that's a easy fix, if what I suggested doesn't work, you can download the Reforger GitHub files and use the models in there to scale your model (the lightbar and bullbar)?

[eternal loom]

As I said it's all vanilla assets for now (except for textures and materials obviously) , I'm making my soup with what the engine can give me 😄
We'll see this tomorrow, can't wait to try this out 🙂

[digital sluice]

how could this even possibly happen, all I did was override the PKM base prefab to change to a custom item size

this game amazes me sometimes

[formal tartan]

This looks like its something to do with the Magazine slot?

[digital sluice]

Maybe. I’ll look at it more whenever I work on this project again, was just a side project that may or may not go somewhere. Who knows, the issue may disappear on its own after some time because they do that sometimes lol

[formal tartan]

Sounds about right XD

[eternal loom]

So THIS was the magical checkbox, still weirdly assembling stuff together and thx again 🫡

[formal tartan]

My guy, i'm not gonna lie... I have no idea what that button does XD But I am glad you figured it out!

[eternal loom]

Hahaha 😄 Well now it doesnt want to rotate or offset but I'll find out 😤

Okay looks like it's "merge physics" (and then have the correct scale) OR "rotate/offset" 😅

[formal tartan]

Try scaling the prefab.

[eternal loom]

Yea I did it, but it turns back to its original scale if I do not check "merge physics"

[formal tartan]

Hmm ok it definetly shouldnt do that?

[eternal loom]

Nah, I'm using a fatty concrete slab to make a small plane for the lightbar, it has to be at 0.155 scale 😅

I need to find a way to make a "composition", this may resolve the issue

[formal tartan]

I scaled and applied my Prefab and then assigned it with SlotManagerComponent , is that what you are trying to do?

Because SlotManagerComponent is just like a location, it has nothing to scale per say. So you would need to scale the Lightbar and Bullbar, then assign their location with SMC?

[eternal loom]

I was using "BaseSlotComponent" as advised by Bohemia but your way looks better, but are you able to rotate your figurine inside the truck?

[formal tartan]

Yes

[eternal loom]

How? 😮

[formal tartan]

Click "Angles" then Press the "E" Key

I want to see if I can do it with BaseSlotComponent so bear with me a sec

BaseSlotComponent works this way too

[formal tartan]

Can I DM you, slow mode in pissing me off XD

[unkempt wind]

@radiant flame yo man I've got a question about ADSsway, is there a way to configure it so the eye relief on the scopes is a bit more forgiving, without reducing the weapon sway itself?

And if so, where can I find the settings to tweak them

[hallow dust]

Is anyone able to point me in the right direction when it comes to programmatically modifying the BaseLoadoutManager's slots? is that possible?

[dusty badge]

is there a tutorial on using the peer tool plugin / dedicated server plugin in the enfusion workbench to test multiplayer?

Because the server and peer client cant find the addons. I have some downloaded mods in one directory and self made mods in another

Im not sure how to add multiple dirs

[dusty badge]

Thanks

Is there a codebase tree available for Reforger? I thought I was trying to do something simple, but I am just chasing my tail looking for the right code to edit. I'm an old sysadmin/dba, not a dev. Something like a db schema would really help. Thank you.

[violet pelican]

Is there option to remove obstruction somehow of item. Like have mask and covers face. Or weapon that if on back and prone stciks in face

[jade current]

If you change the scale of an animated object, the animations set its scale back to one regardless.

[digital sluice]

I meant the inventory UI item size, not the actual model size. I should’ve specified!

[jade current]

So changing the UI size of a gun is causing random boots to be attached to it?

[digital sluice]

Apparently so lol, but only sometimes, and not always boots. And it disappears after a while, so idk. Very odd bug

[jade current]

You must be doing more than just that.

Something else that you're doing is causing that bug.

I've went as far as overriding things and adding my own custom sizes and never had the issue.

If it was specifically because of changing the sizes, I would have gotten it myself.

Redacted.

I just tested, it's specifically a bug with that weapon. Which would be why i've never seen it before lol

[digital sluice]

In both cases, I did an override of the LMGs base prefab, changed the UI item size, and that was it. But like I said, doesn’t always happen. And in the case of the PKM, I went to bed for the night last night and reopened it this morning and it wasn’t happening anymore

[digital sluice]

Yup, that’s what the PKM showed for me

[jade current]

Have you tested in a non diag environment?

[digital sluice]

Have not, only in workbench

[jade current]

Workbench used to have bugs in regards to showing the item icons to random different "models"

Which could be the same for this, could just be a workbench bug.

[digital sluice]

It definitely still has that bug as I run into it constantly lol

[jade current]

Weird that this is only for this particular prefab though, as all the other ones i've messed with have never had it happen.

[digital sluice]

I’ll write up a feedback ticket for it soon. I just thought it was funny because I don’t even know remotely how it could happen on a technical level

[surreal lava]

why do i get this message when i try and start this up????

[jade current]

Because you are Missing Addon Dependencies.

[hardy bane]

Hey everyone, In Freedom Fighters mod, Do you guys know how can you tweak the frequency of stuff? like roadblocks, QRF size etc, when playing solo scenario ? is it available in game or has to be in workbench ?

[vernal pollen]

You might be able to do something in-game with game master mode

[hardy bane]

only factor thats available to change that i can see affects these is Enemey factor as percentages from 0% to 200% i think and thats about it, i was thinking more in depth settings, i guess i have to check the workbench stuff from someone's mod to find out, thanks for helping tho sweet potatoh

[vernal pollen]

You could ask for more indepth settings on their showcase page, if it exists.

[hardy bane]

ill see about it

[hardy bane]

its hard coded into the scenario from the workbench lol

[pallid condor]

what would cause my charater to get teleported to the middle of the ocean when i try and climb on my tank does not do it in workbench only when i test the mod in g ame

[formal tartan]

Do you have other mods active

[pallid condor]

only the dependices that are needed for my mod which is space core and wcs armaments

i did somemore looking and it says the tank has no edible things like fuel or stuff like a ural or jeep would have

in gamemaster mode

[formal tartan]

Hmmm ok

Did you create an entirely new prefab from scratch or did you duplicate a previous one? Like a pre existing car?

[pallid condor]

i had to use the tank one from spacecore

should be the same as there abrams

[fickle shore]

does anyone know why enfusion has decided to automatically make overide option on objects missing now i only recieve a duplicate item

[eternal loom]

Each time I delete my car, one of the two BaseSlotComponents don't want to go : in fact, the only component that is correctly deleted with the car is the small "LightSwitch" and all the sub-components just stay there floating in the air until I hit "play" or re-load the scene, due to this "TFL_PROXY flag", do you know where I can uncheck it to solve this small issue? 🙂 Thx!

[jade current]

Anything that is added as a child, is expected to have a Hierarchy component. That proxy flag isn't something you can set, it's set by the engine when certain expectations have been/not been met.

If your child prefabs and slots are set up correctly then you won't have this issue.

[eternal loom]

Okay thanks, that's weird cause I checked a billion times for "hierarchy" component, but I'll check it again then 😉

[jade current]

Actually I was getting ready to edit one of my messages.

It actually seems to indicated that the vehicle itself isn't replicated.

How are you trying to delete this vehicle?

[vernal pollen]

Can anyone explain the relationship between regular (blue) prefabs and their Editable (orange) variants? I know Editable is for the inworld, but then what's the point of the regular one? Do their component settings have to match 1:1? Every update messes up my prefabs, I have to start them from scratch for them to work. The regular ones work in my testing so I know my logic is sound, but getting the Editable version to work is always a toss up even if they have the same settings, aside from the Editable's additional properties.

[fluid briar]

Is there a mod or any solution to periodically save scenario state to restore it after a crash? E.g. spawned bases, ranks, supplies. I heard about something like that but couldn't find it

[eternal loom]

I just click "del", it's only happening since I added my second object to the car, lightbar is not causing this issue. The car disappears as expected and is available on demand but this second object (made of a few different vanilla assets) stays in the air until the scene is reloaded in any way

[fleet lotus]

What would be the reason i cant save a .conf file??
I get an error every time trying to save this file but it doesnt give any specifics about it

all i did was change some numbers around in it and suddenly it wouldnt save

nvm fixed it by restarting reforger tools and editing the file in notepad

Has anybody found navmeshes refusing to generate on parts of the world above a certain height?

[eternal loom]

I'm trying to make bigger wheels but cannot find the parameter; I already duplicated the wheel prefab, resized it to 1.125 and saved the new "bigger-wheel.et" prefab then applied it to the 4 wheel components inside of "SlotManagerComponent" but they still stay the same size. I finally tried to modify the wheel radius inside VehicleWheeledSimulation > Axles > Axle > Wheel > Radius but it's still only virtual/physics and not visually correct

I hope I'm clear enough 😅

[jade current]

You're not expected to be modifying the scale of things in game.

[eternal loom]

Oh? How so? I've did it multiple times, not without any trouble but it works?

[jade current]

Because, the developers said so.

There are certain use cases where it is okay, with animated objects, the animation itself scales the item back to 1.0.

[quiet horizon]

Hej TPM, did u found some solution for this?

[eternal loom]

Oh, okay then, I guess I'll keep this wheel size, or chose different wheels, modded or vanilla

[empty vessel]

No sorry

[bronze aspen]

I’m not sure if I’m in the correct chat for this question, but what would the cost be to pay someone to build a custom map ?

You can't pay someone to make a project within the workbench. Against EULA/TOS

Is there any way to give a lil boost to display of decals generated by a WEGenerator? Can't see the lines like 10 meters away

Well, some will work when their curve is towards the camera but for the middle dashed line it's almost invisible most of the time

As what I understand, these procedural decals don't like to be seen from a human-sized perspective, while "standards" ones are okay with that

One more visual for (eventual) better understanding:

And from a higher POV:

Looks like you miss an important basic component, but can't tell you which one it is
Look at the YT tutorials for map creations and see if you didnt forget one of the basic components

My turn now 😛
Do you know if there is a variable in materials edition where I can check "double sided" for a .xob that I want to see the textures from the interior?

Does anyone know how to create a new window that renders the game from the perspective of a given camera from a script? Something like how the world editor embeds a view of the world, but in a dedicated window if possible (although I would also be curious to find out how the world editor embeds a camera's perspective within its UI).

If it's not possible to render in dedicated windows, is it possible to have multiple views on the same window?

Hey, im trying to implement custom waypoint logic, and I've extended the SCR_WaypointDisplay class, as well as added it to the SCR_HUDManagerComponent in my character controller, but I cant get the extended logic to run, is anyone able to give me a hand?

[eternal loom]

It was in Enfusion, but the "double sided" variable I was looking for is from Unreal Engine 😉 anyway, problem solved now, it was named "cull" in Enf' 🙂

Since I got you, my lights weirdly don't want to stop even if I break the lightbar.. I checked "parent surface" for all 4 of them and nope, they won't die until the vehicle itself dies 🤨

Halo guys. On a scale from 1-10 how difficult is it to make my own factions with custom logos for each like dea ,narco, Mexico military

And have my own patches ?

1/10 as I understand, but I still need to implement it, but there is tutorials for this 🙂

Let's say 2/10 tbh

[lethal swallow]

Wow so easy then.

[eternal loom]

Yip!

[lethal swallow]

Okay. But I’m brand new. How long will take for me to learn?

[eternal loom]

Like half of an hour to two hours, depends if you're focused at 102 percent 😄
You will be able to update their logo, their flags (floating-in-the-air in-game and UI ones), the patches will come after (or before, as you want) and could be a whole other sub-project since they will be part of the outfits

[lethal swallow]

Wow okey thank you. You give me more confident to try

Does anyone have any experience with 3d markers?

[wraith grail]

Anybody have experience on how to make modded bodies and mess with their values? Im completely new to modding and have been trying to teach myself but I've only gotten so far on my own

[formal tartan]

Could you eleborate on what you mean by "Bodies"?

[wraith grail]

Character models

[wraith grail]

Like the bacon zombie heavy, tho im not looking to make a custom model for the base game body im trying to make one that is faster and taller, more or less like a spartan body on one of the halo servers on reforger, but my dumb ass can't even figure out how to spawn in a character to start messing with it

[zealous scroll]

The vanilla ones don't have blend shapes i don't think so you can't do that. You would have to either purchase or make your own model that has blend shapes,, and then rig it And import it with the reforgerr skeleton, and set up the blend shapes

It does support them

I think the face might have a couple.

[wraith grail]

What is "blend shapes" im still new to modding

[zealous scroll]

It is something that modelers can make when they make 3D model. It allows you to deform the character mesh
Like ears, eyes, mouth, nose, arms, anything thinner or wider or longer etc...

But the character has to have them made specifically. It's a specific technology whatever.

[wraith grail]

Are you referring to what the character looks like or the skeleton its based off of

[zealous scroll]

Daz3D newest generation of human characters su supports them, and they are free to use. It will be a good amount of work though.

[zealous scroll]

Blend shapes are for the skin mesh on the character.Not the bones.

It is how making taller and shorter , thinner and fatter characters is done in real time.

Without making the mesh look stupid

[wraith grail]

I've actually got a guy who made the coding for that for me already, I've just got no clue how to get to the point of messing with it in infusion

[zealous scroll]

It's not the code i'm talking about. You can't do it unless a model has blend shapes.

Plain and simple

And the reforger ones don't. Like I said, I think a couple on the face, maybe the mouth only something like that.

Yeah, I think it's only the mouth.They use it for the audio dialogue, character stuff

For making the mouth move with the words.

[wraith grail]

@zealous scroll I am using a model that has blend shapes, its what the guy i know made for me as the base for what im doing

[zealous scroll]

Okay, well, you the only thing you can look at is the voice dialogue matching the mouth stuff. Go look at the head model.Import settings or whatever and see if they are listed in there, blend shape for the mouth.

I haven't used it yet.I just know that it exists and plan to use them in the future. I've used them in unity, but not on this.

👋 Hello @wispy swift, I have a question, if you don't mind... Are you the creator of FM FastTravel ?

[pallid condor]

anyone know how to fix this

[acoustic rover]

👋 Hello Saders, First of all, it's a warning, not an error, so it shouldn't block you too much, but to fix it, because yes, you're right, it's better, it seems to me that it comes from a 30mm grenade that you didn't save in the arsenal configuration file, but I could be wrong. Take a look at that first, good luck ! 💪

[wispy swift]

@acoustic rover Yes, but I don't think it's working yet.

[pallid condor]

@acoustic rover its the 2 ammoution types that are in the magazine and the magazine is added to the inventory config

[acoustic rover]

Yes, that's right. That's precisely why I contacted you. Locally, there's no problem, but in multiplayer mode, it doesn't work for some unknown reason. I tried writing a script myself, but nothing works. There must be something I'm missing. I hope you succeed before I do, because I have some interesting ideas for Fast Travel. Good luck, and thank you for your creations. They are really interesting and practical 💪

[acoustic rover]

Is it correctly referenced in your global arsenal? Because that's what it seems to be trying to spawn, but it can't find it (if I'm not mistaken).

[pallid condor]

global arsenal were is that to

[acoustic rover]

Normally, you should have something like this. And it must be inside to be generated. Once again, if I understand your problem correctly...

[acoustic rover]

Here is the code I wrote, inspired somewhat by yours. But like you, I was unsuccessful, so I am posting it here and perhaps you will find something useful insade 😉

(This script works normally locally )

[pallid condor]

i have that there for the 30mm ammo

google says its were its trying to spawn it so fast were the gun is shooting so fast but idk

[acoustic rover]

Okay, first check done. Now can you confirm that it's here too?

[acoustic rover]

Is it for a vehicle or for weapons, or both?

[pallid condor]

its the ammo for the autocannons on a anti air tank

its the 2 types that are part of the main mag

[acoustic rover]

Oh ok, it's a box of ammo, but here you only need to put unique ammunition, if I'm not mistaken, such as rockets, etc. Wait, I'll find you the place where I would put that instead. Do you use WCS mods or not?

[pallid condor]

armaments is one of the dependices

[acoustic rover]

Nice

[pallid condor]

spacecore is the other\

its the same place as the lav25 in the us inventoryitem config so i just matched there locations

[acoustic rover]

anti air tank ? You shure

[pallid condor]

thats were the lav ammo box is in BI base config

[acoustic rover]

Yes, except that you're in the helicopter section, so if I'm not mistaken, it's only for them. For land vehicles, it's not here.

[pallid condor]

so is the ammo for the lav25

hench my i matchs there k17 from RHS is in the same place i beleave

[acoustic rover]

I would put it here, but anyway, give it a try and let me know 😉

[acoustic rover]

There are two types of ammunition: the kind you can load into the vehicle's boot, and the kind you can only reload using the WCS maintenance system.

In the first case, it's where I suggest (since it's a box that can be dragged and dropped) and in the other case (WCS maintenance, I'm looking for...)

[pallid condor]

it cant be draged much like the lav ammo cant only load

and the wcs config is just a override of the one in the base game so its the same as mine

[acoustic rover]

Okay, I understand. So forget my solution. We need to find or determine where the ammunition managed by the WCS maintenance system should be placed 💪

[pallid condor]

i looked through most the configs trying to find what BI did with the ammo types that make up the lav25 ammo boxs but could not find them in the lists

[acoustic rover]

If you are using the WCS maintenance system, you should search their files rather than Bohemia's (Reforger).

[acoustic rover]

The configuration that will provide you with your solution must be in WCS Armaments

[acoustic rover]

Is it for this LAV that you are trying to configure your settings?

[pallid condor]

no but that is mine i am working on a Russian anti air atm

[acoustic rover]

Ok cool, Is he in the workshop or not yet?

[pallid condor]

not yet still has alot of work to be done its my first mod from the ground up

[acoustic rover]

So that I can look at the files, because at the moment, I don't think I can help you much more, unfortunately 😬

[pallid condor]

is the model that took me way to love after i messed the first verson up

i know its something stuipd smiple ill figure it out

whats funny is i have the anti air rockets on setup same as my lav ad and the damn things done want to work let alone show up

[acoustic rover]

Don't give up, you'll find it, I'm sure. If I find a better lead than the little I've given you, I'll come back and tell you. In the meantime, stay strong. Make Arma Not War is always better.

[acoustic rover]

That's an interesting idea. You can also check WCS_Arsenal; your configuration may be there 🤙

[bold jasper]

Hi guys, anybody know a mod who can add "Xp Cost" in arsenal items?

[acoustic rover]

WCS does this for vehicles, so it should be possible for items. If you know how to code, take inspiration from this because I don't know of any mods that do this, but I admit it could be very interesting 👍

[wintry root]

Good morning, does anyone know how I can add a map marker for a trader for example? I used slot marker on scenario framework but we use gamemaster now

Hey, does anyone know where to find those kind of barriers please ? I know they are in the game but i cant find them

[north oyster]

airports, entrances to military installations...

[young hornet]

Im sorry i didnt clearly express my mind, i meant in that i couldnt find them in the workbench because i need to add them in my map

[north oyster]

Well, you can select them in an existing map and that gives you the location but it's a bar gate so -> {07F043DD6AACCD0B}Prefabs/Structures/Infrastructure/Barriers/BarGate_01/BarGate_01.et

[young hornet]

It's Good Diego. I had a bit of trouble, but I finally got it to work. I'm sending you the three files you need to make Fast Travel work in multiplayer mode. You can use my code for your Fast Travel without any problems, so go ahead and enjoy... Next, I'll try to make a hint appear that indicates the destination and, in case of excessive use, a recharge time. After that, I'll try to make a sound play when it's used. But it already works in multiplayer mode. If you have any specific questions, PM me 😉

It's not easy to answer your question; I would need to know quite a few things to give you a precise answer. But first of all, which mod are you using exactly ? Some are much better designed than others, which would save you from problems like the one you're experiencing. Good luck with your search ! 💪

Hey, so I'm having a dependencies problem on my project. It appears Arma Reforger has banned Cypher Trenches mod, and it was used in my level. Now when I try to launch my program it gives me this error. I can't launch into my project to remove the dependency, does anybody know how to fix this?

[sinful oxide]

If you’re normally removing a dependency. Open your project settings within the project, remove the GUID/Dependency. Then save and re open the workbench.

If you’re removing a mod thats preventing opening of your project you’ll need to manually remove that GUID string from the file itself [.gproj] in a text editor (make sure you save it).

if you have assets that have an inheritance from that mod they will also break so you may need to do some checking or errors will likely direct you.

The mod also may have been taken down by the author so it would be worth checking if it has and reaching out to them first.

[pulsar nymph]

How come we don’t have reload animations for vehicle mounted guns?

[warm mirage]

BaseLoadoutClothComponent on the Prefab you wanna attach the patch to, open the slot attached and put the patch in, adjust position and assign eg spline5 as well as the slot if not already done by the crerator of the vest. Done

[blissful crypt]

i meant in the context of making the shirt on pc, seeing where the patches are gonna end up on the shirt, im still learning BI's engine and allat, figured it out, thank you for the quick response tho

oh and use the worn model mesh for the item model mesh to see it

[blissful crypt]

did exactly that, lmao

[round gorge]

oh if not assigned or created, put a custom slot

Has anybody here had issue with spawning AI for custo mfactions? When I'm testing my 9 factions in Enfusion I can spawn a character from them just fine, but in a server they are completely scrambled and none of the AI match (for example if I try to spawn an AI from the gm library for Faction A it spawns faction B and if I try to spawn an AI from faction B it might just spawn default USSR AI)

It's starting to drive me crazy because everything worked just fine in my previous core mod before 1.6 dropped, but after making this new one I feel like I must be forgetting to change a setting somewhere or move a config to the correct place... Other faction mods like bacon zombies work in my server and it would appear my configs match that one exactly 🙁

[surreal lava]

[zinc urchin]

Yeah, I can help you with that
Debug menu access depends on server permissions and config setup, and removing water is map/world config related most people get stuck there

If you want, I can jump in, set it up properly for you, and make sure everything runs clean without breaking the server
DM me and we’ll sort it out

[surreal lava]

okay bet

[smoky schooner]

Any idea how to generate this stuff?

[tawdry pebble]

Couple questions, one, how would one make a shotgun and two, how do you make tracers with different colors?
Id like to keep the normal tracer colors intact

theres a WB screenshot plugin that more-or-less works that makes those for ingame menu icons

Hello all! 🙂
Is it possible to deal damage to a whole prefabs composition at once instead of one part?
I'm trying to make custom building but only with vanilla assets, so I used the concrete square wall and set these settings, parent being at the bottom of the "construction", but even if the parent have 5x less HP than children, I only can destroy all at once by hitting parent, children being destructed 1 by 1
Sorry if I'm not really clear 😅

As you can see (to be more clear, or try at least), I can destroy the parts one by one when I want that the damage taken by a part would be transmitted to the parent (white tiles).
This said parent have less HPs, so it's the "weak point" and hitting any part should then destroy the whole thing by destroying the parent in first place.

[hollow rampart]

If you look at vanilla buidlings you can see that they are not made like this and the overall system is not designed for this. I believe you would have to script the damage handling between the parts.

[eternal loom]

I was sadly expecting this answer, but what the "Damage Pass Rules" + "Pass to parent" are made for then? 🧐
Anyway, thanks for the quick answer 🫶

[hollow rampart]

could try pass to root instead

[eternal loom]

Yeah I tried the three of those 😅

[ashen pelican]

I'm current trying to have a character fire a mortar for a cinematic if anyone has any knowledge on either how to do it or even where to look for answers would be greatly appreciated

Edit: Good lord don't it's not worth the hassle

[hollow rampart]

at least how I remember it working is that the parent is supposed to destroy the children, like you might have furniture etc as part of a house prefab

[eternal loom]

Yea this is what I just showed in the https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/976591280786276362, now I want the reverse way 😄

[sinful oxide]

Is this something you’re trying to do for one structure specifically or a universal case for like building blocks @eternal loom

[eternal loom]

For now it's for one big and custom structure specifically, but yes I'd love to make a part that would make me able to build my own buildings with the same destruction rules 🙂
MODULAR is the word I was looking for 😅

[vapid sparrow]

Does anyone have any idea what would cause my prefab browser items to be clippable? For example, I have a bridge as part of my map, and sometimes when I drive over it, I clip right through it. Other times, the collision works fine.

[sinful oxide]

The only thing I could think of is creating hierarchy chains that lead from the base upward so each prefab kinda has another’s set as a child, which is not optimal at all. You could likely ask @unreal trench (sorry for the ping) how they may have achieved the result I remember to the best of my knowledge that he had something close to similar for handling child destruction on base building.

[eternal loom]

With vanilla vehicle? Did you changed the scale of the prefab?

[vapid sparrow]

No, prefab is normal bridge. Vanilla vehicle. I also have the same issue when walking over it.

50/50 chance I walk right through it

[sinful oxide]

Is this a GM asset or a map placed entity?

[vapid sparrow]

Map. Vanilla object

[sinful oxide]

Could you dm me we’ll save clutter in here.

[eternal loom]

😬 indeed it's kinda problematic :/

@sinful oxide thanks a lot! I'll see if Modest is available to help me with that, it could let me build really cool stuff, while still being destructible without parts floating in thin air 😄

Oh and btw from the beginning I never found how to fix this one, giving me 3 errors by frame 😅

With a bit of chance it would also fix my shadows and light issues 🥲

[sinful oxide]

Do you have multiple in the world?

If you have one in the world, and subscene layer both it can cause conflictions. If that’s not the issue, I’d try removing and re-adding it using the prefab one from the browser.

[hearty pier]

I am hoping that someone can help, or even just point me to the correct chat or give me a direction. I have a Machine gun that has been setup using the M16 prefab (as it needed a suppressor and I couldn't get it working with the M60 prefab), I can confirm everything works fine with the M60 prefab but when I have copied everything over to a M16 prefab the mounted position of the weapon seems off, see image, how do I change the offset on where the model gets mounted. The pivot point seems to be under the center of the gun causing it to sit next to the players head

[warm mirage]

pretty sure it was those 🙂

[maiden ruin]

Hi can anyone help, I’m looking to set tanks and armour so they set you back two ranks, as in when you spawn a tank, it deducts your rank to stop people spamming them.

Ie if your LT I want it to set you back to CPL when spawning said vehicle, in the editable prefab is this the one under campaign or which.

[eternal loom]

Should I use this instead of the "GenericWorldEntity" maybe?

[vapid glade]

Having issues with my AI, they are aiming at the ground or sky when they try and shoot an enemy. Any ideas?

[gloomy vapor]

Modded?

[zinc urchin]

Hey that won’t be handled purely in the editable prefab under Campaign

[vapid glade]

Its the Soviet AI all i have is custom clothing on them.

[vapid glade]

Looking at your mod i like what I see!

[wide lava]

we love the broken workshop

[gloomy vapor]

Thnak's, glad to hear. 😉
Map is vanilla as well?
Maybe you made a sub-scene ( world ) and forgot something or messed something up in the world?
They do this all the time?

[cursive marsh]

is there a way to convert emat files to a more common file type?
