bacon (mod status in pins)

[spice elk]

the mod assumes you have full access to the whole CPU, so no point in running it on any VPS or otherwise limited setup, because you will get smaller score automatically, the test uses up to 10 cores

[proven grail]

Ok, nice, thanks

[spice elk]

I also appreciate anyone running it and sharing results so we can build database of scores for processor models

[pale coral]

trying this on my server rn because my singleplayer dont work

[spice elk]

you wont get a good score without access to the entire processor

[proven grail]

how do you access the entire processor ?

[spice elk]

you own or rent out the entire hardware

any game server provider is automatically disqualified in this case, unless they provide you with the entire hardware

[proven grail]

I have my self machine, but is humble lol

[spice elk]

then the score will be reliable, just make sure nothing else runs on it for the time of the test

normally server does not use more than 4-5 cores even with 128 players, the test uses up to 10

[proven grail]

where the mod save the archive ?

[spice elk]

profile folder

[pale coral]

dont even work on a server i dont think

[spice elk]

it works 100% I shared results from last week in the server channel

[pale coral]

hmm

[lilac sinew]

is there a link to your discord?

[spice elk]

in pins

[uncut atlas]

the mod is in the workshop?

[pale coral]

check

[lilac sinew]

ohh

[pale coral]

restarted the server and there is nothing sorry if im being dumb but is anything supposed to happen?

[spice elk]

you probably didnt read mod description and/or didnt use the scenario

[spice elk]

oh I thought you was talking about the stress test mod

[pale coral]

no lmao drone

[spice elk]

ah ok dont care then sorry

[pale coral]

[spice elk]

in the scenario its on a table at beuregard docks or whatever the name of the town was

[proven grail]

In my results, the line is single, there is no line break, how do you do it?

1 by 1 ?

[spice elk]

I press format in my code editor

[silent plaza]

[fossil acorn]

awesome to see a drone system being made, loved Arma 3 for its 2035 setting (can understand why its not everyones cup of tea) so seeing some of that functionality through mods for Reforger and thus the Enfusion engine is great

[spice elk]

2nd time's the charm

[sweet vigil]

I know it's a little early to ask but will there be a variant with a weapon slot?

[spice elk]

my roadmaps arent public, so just assume no for anything I didnt say

[proven grail]

This is because there is still enough RAM memory for the list, which ranges from the best M4s in the Reforger to an alien invasion mission and AI piloting helicopters.

Where does it say it adds anything to GM?

[sleek tusk]

When I look at the little screen thing there’s I option to control drone

[wispy stirrup]

Oh mb I just assumed i had to spawn the drone through gm sry

[sleek tusk]

[wispy stirrup]

Montignac has a harbour?

Oh shit I forgot what the place is called

I couldn't find the drone or the phone anywhere

[spice elk]

Same location as in the video. Arland scenario beuregard harbor

[severe olive]

Ohhhh it's a scenario, my apologies

[spice elk]

Yep sorry there are a few problems to figure out before it can be freely plopped and deleted

[honest pollen]

no way drone mod is back

[spice elk]

not yet brother

[quasi pendant]

I’m more excited for the new admin tools they look insanely good

[torpid loom]

Anyone had issues where the AI dosen't reload their weapons even if they have more mags?

Im using bacon M4's on some custom loadouts i loaded onto the AI with GM Persistent Loadouts, they run one mag dry then go to pistol, i have no AI mods enabled other than game master enhanced, the vanilla units reload fine when spawned with GM and i tried loading a loadout onto a AI using the Mk48 mod and he reloads fine.

[spice elk]

hum I have used AI with the m4s and they seemed fine, I wonder if its specific to one type of mag only?

if you are using mags with AP can you try other mags? or even vanilla mags

[torpid loom]

I am using AP but i can grab some other types and try, I wonder if it might be something with the RHS vests? Since i just spawned a RHS Marine and he did the same. Will try to put in backpack aswell to bypass the vest if thats the issue

[spice elk]

thanks for testing this

[torpid loom]

I see now that it is likely related to how close the opfor AI is the blufor AI, it seems that if they run out of bullets on their rifle when the enemy is within a certain range they will switch to their pistol, but they wont swap back to the rifle until the pistol is out of ammo

But now it almost seems like something has changed because it seems more random now when im testing it compared to when i had the AI defend against hordes of zombies, i wonder if the amount of zombies might mess with the AIs ability to compute.

Currently when testing it with one Zed closed in a cage within 10m the AI does not always swap to their pistol, but when he does, he runs it dry then goes back to the rifle.

I guess i'll try to run the kits without pistols and have them defend against hordes to see how that works

[spice elk]

@daring fog does the number of potential targets influence weapon swapping of AI agents?

[daring fog]

Depending on which type of target the agent is about to attack.
If a agent has multiple possible target's he may will switch back and forth between them and depending on which type the target is (vehicle/Infantry ) and which type of weapon the agent has he may will select another weapon to attack.

Don't think the number of target's will influence it.

[supple pilot]

Got trolled by your Cursed Reforger mod today - was transitioning our server mods over for Halloween Content and accidentally grabbed the wrong GUID for Cursed Reforger by Comrade Bear, instead I ended up with your Cursed Reforger and I was wondering why everything was literally cursed.

@spice elk urget message regarding youre zombie back how would one be able to use the mod pack on a map like everon xtra

[spice elk]

step one is don't call mods "mod packs", step two is just enable the mod

generally if it doesnt work on a modded map but it works on a vanilla map you may need to talk to the author of the map

[grave marsh]

Alright thanks

[left ore]

people usually call mod packs stuff like "X's vehicle pack" never heard anyone use it for an individual mod lol

[spice elk]

minecraft players like to call mods modpacks because 90% of minecraft modding is packs

Seems this guy made your drone spawnable, not sure about how the whole licensing thing works but wanted to confirm you allowed this or this was intended to be spawnable as of yet?

[quasi pendant]

sam2312 is the owner of it he is either Russian or Ukrainian I don’t think he speaks English

[wispy stirrup]

I speak Russian I can talk to him

[cloud cedar]

Interesting

[spice elk]

oh yeah I forgot to remove that mod

[keen schooner]

Hey bacon we allowed to make semi auto only versions of your m4s?
It for my roleplay server

[spice elk]

check license

[keen schooner]

That's why im asking bc i thought i read i had to have permission

[spice elk]

unfortunately yes

[narrow igloo]

😭

[spice elk]

test is over

[narrow igloo]

is it still impossible in MP?

[spice elk]

there are some critical issues I want to fix before I give the green light to use it

[grave marsh]

Well you have this

[spice elk]

with a dude sitting on top of it?

[grave marsh]

Yuh😭

[spice elk]

still, props for trying, better than nothing

[grave marsh]

Better than nothing

[spice elk]

I low key think that the things I want to do may not actually be possible in this game version

[grave marsh]

You do also have a grenade dropping one

[grave marsh]

Like what?

[spice elk]

there is a problem with passing the camera from the drone back to the player that was possessing it under certain circumstances, and so far no solution

[pale coral]

not even his.

[quasi pendant]

This isn’t bacons mod you goofball

[spice elk]

I dont think he said it's my mod

[grave marsh]

Never said it was his mod I was just showing him another one

[grave marsh]

What if it was something to do with like aiming down a scope and it transfers over to the drone camera?

[spice elk]

Not relevant sorry bro. Unless you are intimate with scripting dont worry about it.

[sleek tusk]

Enfusion so buns

[quasi pendant]

You literally said right here lmao

[quasi pendant]

You also said here “Well you have this**”

[grave marsh]

I was referring to another mod he could possibly use but guess not

[quasi pendant]

He won’t because he’s not putting an AI on a helicopter and calling it a drone. He’s making a whole different system that makes it an actual model that is controllable remotely.

[spice elk]

It's hard to do things properly sometimes

[queen haven]

I cant wait for bacons drone mod. It was a big disappointment reading the reasons why that other modder made his drone mod basically into what you described.

[hushed aspen]

Gotta do it the bacon way, fuck it up till it works lmfao beat it into submission 😭

santa suits for all factions, nerf guns, snowballs, xmas trees

[pseudo pilot]

perfect

[real kiln]

Will there be more variety of zombies for the ravage zombie mod?

[spice elk]

eventually, right now it's kind of waiting for version 1.3 of the game to change pathfinding

[proven grail]

I hope it's tomorrow's, because the old experimental version has been there for over a month and now they said it will be a special update, I hope it's already 1.3

[spice elk]

I'm not sure doing a major update to main branch this year is a good idea as devs will be on holiday in december so much less time to fix major problems

Like when 1.2 released it was unplayable for like 2 weeks

[proven grail]

I think so too, but there is still plenty of time to correct at least the most critical ones, and I think it is very difficult for Bohemia to close the year without releasing a major update.

And I also don't remember where, but if I'm not mistaken, Bob Murphy leaked that the next update would be major.

[spice elk]

1.2 is still doing worse performance wise than 1.1 was, so I don't think it is enough time

[quasi pendant]

Bacon why does your m4 have a hen### skin 💀

[spice elk]

because its funny

[quasi pendant]

I’m just wondering how you made the texture 💀

Knowing Bohemia since Arma 2 I think they're going to release it anyway lol lol

Bacon, In the intel mod, where I find him in the GM list ?

Nevermind, I found

[quartz vortex]

huh?

[frail rain]

1.2 released the night before steam summer sale. Maybe their next deadline is Steam autumn or Steam winter sale

Oops, meant to reply to the holiday post

[quasi pendant]

Don’t ask

[quartz vortex]

brother you cant mention something like that and NOT elaborate

[hushed aspen]

The lower for the m4’s has manga style art on it and pretty sure some women on it.

You can change the camo of it and that’s one of them lol.

[quartz vortex]

wouldnt that just be anime then not hen***? i dont think BI would be too fond of that in their game

[hushed aspen]

It’s not LITERAL yk what

[sacred lagoon]

Wasn't there a drivable sleigh too?

[spice elk]

[quasi pendant]

It is literal YK what if you look closer at the photos

[jade obsidian]

have several weapons mods but just few weapions are shown in beacon loadout editor ?

[spice elk]

ask the people that made the weapons, they may not be labeled correctly in the game files as weapons

[spring blade]

Bacon, any chance u make the GM editable intel mod able to be picked up and stored in inventory?

[spice elk]

I was thinking about it yes, but then you have the entity icon in game master stuck to players I think? and you cant open it from inventory to read it

[quasi pendant]

Yeah I know that’s a thing that I’ve seen with every pickable up items placed by GM

[spring blade]

I don’t think reading it in inventory would be really needed. Most of the time you read it and want to transport it back to base for others to read.

[jade obsidian]

But i Aldo have installed supressor mods and lot of other stuff and i cant put any suppressor on any gun and Aldo foregrips i have very limited selection of attachments too can you give me some mods perhaps that work very well for you

[spice elk]

I know for sure that my m4 works with it

[jade obsidian]

Mine doesnt 😅 i cant add supressors neither foregrips

[spice elk]

Please try removing all mods except bacon loadout editor and my m4 then start vanilla everon and it should work

[jade obsidian]

Okay i Will try that tnx
But i saw some guy on YouTube with Like 50 Guns on loadout and Like all attachments 😭

https://youtu.be/WF3hD1rXkg0?si=XHZVgBCYNphlG5C0

[fossil acorn]

from eight months ago

patches and such since then would have made it not as stable as it was back then

[spice elk]

There are no known stability issues in this mod

[fossil acorn]

yeah I used the wrong words, just basically was saying that the mod might not have worked the exact same as it did eight months ago

[spice elk]

functionality of the mod has not changed, though some new features were added

[jade obsidian]

hm okay

[jade obsidian]

hm i only have your mod and that m4 mod enabled

[spice elk]

open arsenal box that has guns in it, equip the m4, then you can edit the m4

[jade obsidian]

okay wcs arsenal mod kinda fixes but do you know any mod that lets you have two primary weapons because wcs arsenal for some reason removes it

[spice elk]

You can have two primary weapons by default, so remove the mod that changes it

For reference gun editing looks like this

[jade obsidian]

okay i really wish it was like arma3 where i could have 60+ weapons in arsenal

[jade obsidian]

yes but not for me i cant put suppressors foregrips and stocks

[spice elk]

When I load the two mods I mentioned and drop a US arsenal it works 100% of the time

Mind you my m4 has a lot of attachments but other weapons may not. Depends on the creator.

[jade obsidian]

nto for me idk whats the problem for me i use arsenal in that vanilla single mission

[jade obsidian]

hm idk

[jade obsidian]

can you try on some modded singleplayer misisons if you dont mind

[spice elk]

I only test on vanilla game master. If it works in vanilla but not some modded map I assume the map is not setup like vanilla, so can't do much

[jade obsidian]

alr tnx

[jade obsidian]

it works for me aswell hmm

[jade obsidian]

can i go there and then make loadouts then save thern load them in modded missions???

[spice elk]

Your server side saved loadouts should be available over restarts as long as the mods for weapons and gear dont change

[glad stump]

Well I don't really get what's your problem but you can definitely have 60+ weapons in arsenal

[jade obsidian]

Its kinda working now

[eternal ruin]

is there a possibility of removing the mine detector from every main faction's assault rifles so they stop appearing on weapon racks lol

[spice elk]

hm I would rather check if there is a way to exclude it from the rack, standby

hm no am not seeing a way maybe I missed it

[rugged slate]

Well it's possible cause the AKS74U and M16 Carbine are excluded from racks afaik

[spice elk]

Cool, let me know how that's done

[rugged slate]

I can go ask someone

[real kiln]

Is there good uniform mods? And which ones are worth downloading

[spice elk]

try out Cursed Reforger by ceo_of_bacon

[wicked tapir]

RHS/Task force mattock

Use Bacon's LE to make it easier to look at and select kits

[kindred cradle]

You can remove it via the catalog, delete the WEAPON_RACK from the arsenal display data

[spice elk]

Thanks I'll sort this out tomorrow

[wicked tapir]

@spice elk are you at all thinking of renewing your Sig P320 pistol mod to 1.2 standard?

I don't mind if not, I can use RHS one

[spice elk]

Do you mean the M17 that works fine?

[wicked tapir]

Yeah it just says it's meant for version 1.1 something on the workshop

[spice elk]

Okay and? Doesn't mean it doesn't work

[wicked tapir]

So was wondering if discontinued/was an issue. Alright cool 😎

[spice elk]

There might be an issue with interior sounds when firing suppressed

[wicked tapir]

Not a big deal for me that isnt

[spice elk]

I need to confirm it still, it's to do with volume when fired by someone else away from you in a house you'd hear it quite loud

[wicked tapir]

I'll test and get back to you on your Discord if I find anything

[winter moth]

Hi when I reequip with the mod the AI stops seeing me, does anyone know why that happens or how can I fix it ?

The enemy AI, doesn't see me I can stand in front of them shoot and they just lie down or throw smoke, but I put on standard equipment that I get when I respawn and the AI sees me and shoots me (all normal).

What other mod do you know of that allows you to save equipment and re-equip it when you reconnect?

[spice elk]

lol wut

[kind quiver]

New server admin dummy here. What's the GM part for?

[plucky copper]

You can save loadouts for use on AI.
save one, then edit some ai and you can give them loadouts from there

[supple pilot]

is this publicly released or not available as of this moment?

[spice elk]

I uploaded it and will take it down when I'm happy with test results just like before

[supple pilot]

I will throw it up on our server and see if we can find any bugs, issues or etc. Granted I know you usually only look for repros on vanilla; so if I find anything might not be of use.

[spice elk]

dont waste your time on reporting issues for now, it is too early

[supple pilot]

copy - gonna let my guys get a rip on this thing though! appreciate you putting in the work to have this set up

Where do you obtain the tablet to control the drone?

[spice elk]

it should be in civ arsenal

Before work on the project can continue the following specific cases need to be tested:

1. Have someone fly around and delete the drone
2. Have someone fly around and delete the operator
   3. Have someone fly around and destroy the drone
   4. Have someone fly around and kill the operator
   5. See what happens when drone flies out of network streaming range of the operator
   6. See if drone engine noise synchronizes when drone flies into network streaming range of a player
3. See what happens to the drone when the operator disconnects from the server (or gets kicked)

[supple pilot]

First thing I have noticed off the bat: If you gain enough speed and slam it into the ground - you go through the ground and end up under the map with the drone.

I will get my guys to repro every step above and then report back, but again; we run a pretty large modlist as opposed to what you are looking for.

[spice elk]

I only care about the outlined items so I will test those cases and then remove the mod when done

[spice elk]

Ok wow this works way better than expected

[supple pilot]

Sound persists through the destruction via gunfire - another thing I noticed

[spice elk]

Both of the things you reported are already known, as are many other things. Like I said this is not the time for "general" testing.

[spice elk]

Sounds like you might have some sound mods enabled that ruin the dynamic range

Not going to bother working around it for now since it's removed soon I changed my mind and pushed a hotfix that may respect the music volume in your settings and work around cringe sound mods

[sturdy sedge]

hey bacon question what am i doing wrong in game they wont show up but in wb they do

[analog fox]

Now that you mention it that is very true

[spice elk]

Check in new version of the loadout editor

[quiet shoal]

What mod is that for the gun?

[sturdy sedge]

Spectre m4

[kindred cradle]

the stock and the attachment slot have the same attachment type? is the stock itself in the arsenal as an item?

[sturdy sedge]

yes on both

[kindred cradle]

if it works in WB and not on the server, then the server cant find the item in the arsenal, in the arsenal catalog have you checked that the entry has the correct class and flags it needs?

[sturdy sedge]

1 on 1 copy of the other items that do show up

[spice elk]

I would check for GUID hash collision with items from other mods, sometimes modders create files in folders that are not unique and the GUID ends up colliding

[sturdy sedge]

only my own mod loaded and your editor so that shouldnt be the case

[spice elk]

on the server?

[sturdy sedge]

no solo gm

[spice elk]

open the mod your game has downloaded in wb and check there, instead of opening the project

[sturdy sedge]

ill try that

in before the workshop didnt update your local files properly, happens so much lately

Hello I have this problem with “Loadout editor bank” occupying the default equipment the AI sees me and works fine, at the time of occupying a “saved” equipment the ia stops seeing me.

I can use the “Loadout editor bank” to put on weapons and uniform but when I use a saved equipment this happens, it happens with ArmA reforger vanilla uniform too.

How can it be solved or why can it be?

[spice elk]

Please see if you can reproduce the issue with NO OTHER MODS LOADED, maybe you can record the video with no other mods and send me console.log from the server

[proven grail]

wtf

[quasi pendant]

I’ll listen when I’m home hopefully it’s not a Trojan 💀

[analog fox]

can confirm works wonders now thank you!

[wicked tapir]

@spice elk thanks for putting the menu music in the BLE, it's really funny and cool. Maybe in the future (as an idea not a suggestion) you could add a tab with different themes of music/background which we can upload or use to make it have more soul to it

[spice elk]

Go for it

[wicked tapir]

Can't code yet, but when I can I might release a plug in for BLE allowing that

Anyone having an issue updating or downloading Bacon Loadout Editor?

Just updated and downloaded several other mods with no issue.
but bacon loadout editor failed to update and is failing to install after I deleted it and restarted the game.

[simple tiger]

yeah i am also having the same problem

[spice elk]

you are downloading the mod from the workshop and not from me, nothing I can do about it, use https://discord.com/channels/105462288051380224/976618709185626132 for workshop problems

what does this have to do with my mods?

it's from the server I rent off you

[spice elk]

this is a thread for my mods, anyway I hotfixed it thanks

[simple tiger]

sup hommie bacon! I'm seeing two of the same update (1.2.13) on the workshop website. could that possibly be what's causing the failed download? (maybe its trying to download both?)

[spice elk]

Let me push a dummy update and we can find out

I pushed like 3 updates today before it let me do it without errors

[simple tiger]

oof

[spice elk]

Aight updated

[simple tiger]

that fixed it!

[spice elk]

hmm ok i fixed workshop

[simple tiger]

lol

[spice elk]

Thanks I had no clue

[simple tiger]

gotcha hommie!

[empty swallow]

Same thing happened to me this week. Had to update just to update because one of mine goofed.

[real kiln]

It kept crashing my game for some reason

I was playing the OVE Zombies and the zombies will make my game lag for some reason while they attack me and or explode

But btw great mod love it hope it’s forever lol

Can’t wait to see what other mods you have for zombies

[spice elk]

Put less zombies on your screen idk

[quasi pendant]

POV: you play on a toaster

[spice elk]

if you kill the zombies your FPS will get better

[real kiln]

I don’t put a lot of zombies it’s only when I go shoot them there would be no sound when a zombie explode I can literally put 1 horde and shoot the zombie that explodes and my game will crash

And I have an Xbox series X with 4K and hella good connection

It could be on the Zombie PVE map Bacon made and it’ll do the same thing

[spice elk]

try playing without any other mods enabled and see if it still does it, it sounds like you may have some potentially problematic "effects mods" enabled that might break explosions or something

if it still does it maybe the mod is corrupted, I don't think it has crashed once for me when the zombie blows up in the game in singleplayer and on servers

[real kiln]

Ahh okay then I’ll definitely give that a try “disable the effect mods”

[spice elk]

drone test project is gone from workshop until 1.3 probably because I currently literally cannot do the things I want to do, meanwhile Salami is doing a great job with his project so just use that

hello, I was looking into the admin tools from bacon.
What does this option do?
"statsSaveConnectedPlayers": false,

also this one..
"eventsApiEventsEnabled"

[spice elk]

#1094217375978618920 message

[spice elk]

in other words

[spice elk]

for example my customers often use the events feature to send activity to their discord webhooks

it will send teamkills etc along with player id if you want to remote ban teamkillers and stuff

[pure pilot]

I see .. I didnt know what it was until now, very useful!!!

is there a guide on how to set this up?

[spice elk]

if you use my services then you need to press 2 buttons, otherwise you need to write your own web server to receive the events and then pass them where you want in the format you want

[pure pilot]

"eventsApiAddress": "", do I need to put like a link for a discord channel here?

[spice elk]

here is example payload but you should test it on your own web server really #1094217375978618920 message

wall of shame type stuff

[lime cobalt]

I really liked the music , it just got really laggy for me and a couple others and we kept crashing, so I asked the server owner to run it back a couple updates and it helped

[spice elk]

what kind of cursed mod set does that server run if adding music lags it out

[lime cobalt]

I can’t remember the exact mod list since it was a couple weeks ago, but we weren’t using anything that was crazy, tho I should mention myself and the others were console players

[spice elk]

Mission header section in server config

[spice elk]

Someone asked me to upload it but they didnt specify it has to be working

[viral arrow]

Classic, nice xD

[strong pasture]

Seems like a bit of a security isssue though. If a mod can allow you to open an external website. Im not sure if that opens the door to more malicious actions.

[spice elk]

right? it does only open a URL in default browser, but nothing stopping modders from opening a malicious URL with some troll or virus content

on release mods on PC were allowed to read/write files outside of the game folders, though this was patched relatively quickly

[strong pasture]

Yeah exactly. I’m not really tech savvy, but this does seem fishy

[uncut coral]

Bruh

Report it to Bohemia. This is very risky honestly

Hey bacon,

The zombies are pretty strong on our server, like one tapping people or a max of 3 hits. The mod is under APL-ND, but I was wondering if we'd be okay to adjust the zombie damage in our server mod please?🙏

[glacial herald]

Hey bacon, I was wondering if possible if the vertical grip on the m4 sbr could be removed or changed, because on the server I play on has the m4 mod and I don’t know if it’s the mod itself or the server making it not able to switch the grip on the sbr.

[spice elk]

been answered in this thread already 8985893494 times

[glacial herald]

Sorry for asking, just didn’t want to scroll months back for an answer. But now I did and I got the answer I was looking for, have a good day.

[pliant jasper]

Only ? 🤓

[proper bane]

DO YOU thik you repeat it 8985893495 times please?

[whole tendon]

how do you open the parachutes when you jump out of the vehicle?

[wispy stirrup]

Jump button

[quartz vortex]

the heli has to be auto hovering

[spice elk]

it probably helps to not ragdoll the player yes? did you try it after the recent update that completely changed how the chute works?

[barren plover]

I guess he didn't so I did, anyways
If the helicopter is not in auto hover and is moving in any way your character will be forced into a ragdoll and you will continue falling even going through the ground......heck sometimes it will upright kill you once you exit the helicopter
This however not a bacon issue it's a arma issue with this recent update bringing ragdoll

On another note about the parachute change, I love it and is definitely in the right direction of having a fully working chute, before you deploy your chute after falling I'd be sure to deploy around 100-200 meters above ground otherwise you will be in the air for a very considerable amount of time before hitting the ground so you are kinda a sitting duck to anyone who decides to take a shot at you
I also recommend just before hitting the ground (around 5-10 meters) you press B (for xbox) or X (On PC) to disconnect your chute where you can be combat ready. If you don't....since deploying your chute makes you go into a fixed animation you will be entirely stiff until you exit the parachute
I see also that Bacon has experimented with the "pack chute" mechanic and I love it with no immediate issues.
(I know this parachute project is just a side project and not your eye of attention right now but I thought I'd talk about it anyways since your the only one so far to try this soo good job bacon

[spice elk]

So it doesn't deploy when ragdolled in current version ok

[rough laurel]

The only issue I've ran into with the updated parachute is that it can't be saved in a load out even if it says no item restrictions

[barren plover]

allow it to save radio backpacks

NVM hes right

I only accept bug reports in my Discord which is in the pins

You can place infinite

[spice elk]

correct, I dont care about the budgets in the mod

I will add this to description

mostly test mod, someone asked me to release it so they can mess with it

[gritty current]

Does anyone know how to use the copy and paste mod on Xbox

[spice elk]

read mod description

[gritty current]

Is there no controller key binds ? It only has for keyboard

[spice elk]

no there is not, the keybinds are CTRL+C and CTRL+V as in the description

[vagrant cypress]

Bro I got happy to see Bacon Loadout on Exp, I'm on console and I didn't expect that wtf 😭 🤣

[spice elk]

if you have a good idea of a keybind on xbox for this let me know, but it must not be taken by anything else

[pale coral]

not sure if this is viable but maybe the radial wheel?

[left ore]

does dual input even work on console?

[bitter nest]

@spice elk Are you bringing back santa sleigh this year? 🎅 🙏

[arctic glen]

Yes, I routinely run my keyboard while using my controller for ease of access to things like the radial wheel for RHS and such

[left ore]

not what I meant.. but it's a solution to the keybind problem I guess.

[arctic glen]

Ah, MB, but yeah it’s definitely a solution to the keybind issue and helps massively

Hey @spice elk I ran into an issue today where moving the spotlight inside the loadout editor (accidentally clicked MMB) causes the player to get stuck in the Bacon loadout editor. I was wondering if this bug has been reported/if there is a work-around (aside from not moving the spotlight)

[spice elk]

I only accept bug reports in my discord

[quasi pendant]

Womp womp

[proper bane]

so far been enjoying this i made a town in minutes

[spice elk]

It should be a vanilla feature...

Not a hacky mod liek dis

[dusk glen]

Well now that you did it, maybe they will

[main matrix]

its a shame, this should be in vanilla. a3 zeus already felt hacky in a lot of ways, now GM is polished but the UI feels as cumbersome as before if not more.

[spice elk]

I agree

[acoustic ibex]

NVGs should be in vanilla

[spice elk]

engine features for thermals and NVGs would be nice, but we got fur shaders tho, cool...

[terse crater]

parachute, helicopter and diving should be in vanilla

[quasi pendant]

I 100% like this UI over arma 3s

[sturdy sedge]

I dont get it why they dont add nvg base game tbh it was already around at that time the game is based on .. same for thermal they started military focused around 1950 ( even tho thermal imaging was invented in 1929)
But tbh we mis a lot of stuff that was made in the cold war as arma reforger is set 4 years after the cold war ..

[spice elk]

most of the time they add stuff they plan on using

[sturdy sedge]

Reforger is one of the most empty Armas in base game content . Yes it aint a game ( even tho they sell it as ;)) but yea let hope they add everything to a4 but that will prob release as broken as a3 was when it came out

[main matrix]

which part? the non-scrollable list of assets or the fact that you cant right click to set a waypoint like in a proper RTS?

[acoustic ibex]

Agree

[terse crater]

I also add Heli Rappel

[quasi pendant]

Too lazy lol

[quasi pendant]

You can scroll through the assets lol and it sounds like you just need to get used to the ui lmao

[spice elk]

some of it is better UX some of it is worse

[main matrix]

its paged, which is arguably a worse experience on PC - especially on long lists. the filters are a nice touch.

another prominent UI element are the input fields that need to be "double selected" and dont get me started on the long press to send 😄

[spice elk]

i made it preserve height above terrain of copied entities a bit better, so like thing placed on a table might paste on the table not on the ground idk try it

[left ore]

the way enf renders shaders is kinda weird

[quartz vortex]

hell yea PVS-5s and the weird soviet tanker NVGs would go hard

all they need to do for realism is give your character neck pain

[chilly jackal]

anyone else think this is really worrisome for mods? like if a minor update busted this much then how bad will the next major update be?

[quartz vortex]

idk. we'll just have to watch how this all unfolds

[neon perch]

few things as someone who has a pretty large mod that touches a lot of things: The first thing is that Reforger is a test bed, so it kind of comes with the territory. I'd rather they get things "right" now and have a baseline for A4 that won't be messed with a ton. If they gotta make big changes then they gotta make big changes and it's better sooner rather than later.

Second thing is that it always depends on what they change rather than how much. It's not uncommon for mods to be bjorked after big updates for any game, I think that once BI has a baseline that they're happy with for A4 then it should be relatively smooth sailing.

[stoic wraith]

so the bacon loadout editor won't get an update?

[acoustic ibex]

I think the more we ask the more he won’t do it

you cant disable the limits in scenario options as GM?

are you running any other mods on the server than the editor? if yes then your report would be closed for spam, if not then post repro steps here

also this isnt related to the crash but your log is missing timestamps, seems like a bug in your panel

timestamps are helpful in case the crash occurred say 10 seconds after the error, in which case it would be likely unrelated

[spice elk]

can I trade it for your rhs role?

[quasi pendant]

💀

[wraith harness]

but do you want to?

[spice elk]

I dont know depends on how much they go for on the black market

[wraith harness]

i'll ask around and let u know

[strong pasture]

Why so blue

[spice elk]

crippling depression

[strong pasture]

🥶

[whole tendon]

@spice elk I think they make a pill for that.

And I'm sure they make a pill to treat the side effects of the first pill and well

[spice elk]

uhhh isnt that what feeling blue means thats the joke I was tryna make

[bold leaf]

Worried down with the blues

[valid totem]

Thank you. I'll inform our staff to download the logs manually and get me the info from there.
We do have a small modlist alongside this but it is unrealistic for us to be able to replicate this without mods. I have no idea how this crash happened and it's the first I've seen.

[spice elk]

this is not the first time I see this kind of log with the editor with a crash but every single time so far it was not reproducible on vanilla

mostly because... the loadouts that people had when it happened pretty much only had modded items in them

I also tried copy pasting their loadouts into a test server and was also unable to reproduce, so I'll just give up for now

[valid totem]

I'm actually curious if it's because I didn't wipe kits on update day. So I'm scheduling that this week prior to the weekend pending some updates on my end and if that doesn't pop up again I'll let you know.

[spice elk]

there is a message in the editor in orange text above the button hotkeys that is very important

[swift lichen]

@spice elk Hello, could you please tell me if it's possible to fix the bipod on a Barrett? They are very short, so when aiming on a flat surface or slightly angled upwards, the scope doesn’t lift properly. I’ll provide a video below.

[spice elk]

does the bipod that's on this rifle extend?

I think the model's bipod doesn't extend so it cannot be elongated, use a vehicle or a rock as your stabilizer

[tribal goblet]

Are you going to keep the suppressors or do you plan to delete them now that they are in the stable?

[spice elk]

I am keeping them for the models, they work alongside vanilla now

[rugged slate]

Can you stick them on vanilla guns?

[spice elk]

maybe? I havent tried but they got same attachment class

[rare ore]

Will the no saving load outs in single player be permanent

[spice elk]

Mods cant save files on Xbox, so the loadouts wont save until they can

[quartz vortex]

they save just fine for me what

[spice elk]

They are saved to disk. On Xbox this is not possible. That's all there is to it.

[rugged slate]

It worked before what happened?

[spice elk]

I guess the editor now returns an error instead of pretending the save was successful. Mods are not able to save files on disk and were not able to for as long as I am modding.

[rugged slate]

Is there some ramshackle solution to this or are Xbox players just fucked?

[spice elk]

Files cannot be saved on Xbox. Loadout Editor saves loadouts in files. Therefore no worky on Xbox. I am saying this for the 4th time now.

[rugged slate]

I know, that's why I'm asking if they can or cannot be saved in something o-... Nevermind I'm stupid

[spice elk]

It could be saved only in memory but if it doesn't persist across restarts then there's not much point to it.

[rugged slate]

Could you make an Xbox single player alteration of the system? Or is that something you find unnecessary?

[spice elk]

And what would it do exactly?

[rugged slate]

Save to memory as opposed to files

[spice elk]

So it would be wiped every time you reload the map

[rugged slate]

Correct, it was like this before though.

[spice elk]

That sucks tho lol

[rugged slate]

It was very useful for things like screenshots when you need several of the same guy

[spice elk]

I will patch this not to try to save to file if it's on console then

[finite orbit]

It works normally for me on Xbox as though it did prior to the update 🤷🏼‍♂️

[spice elk]

I pushed out an update to ignore file operations on Xbox, but I dont have a good way to test it now

[finite orbit]

Just tested it in solo GameMaster, works fine as it always has for me.

[flat carbon]

anyone on pc having issues with loadout saving?

[acoustic ibex]

My group hasn’t

[spice elk]

before you submit a bug report make sure you read the orange text above buttons in bottom right corner

I think I will make it a popup you are forced to accept to use editor

[blissful horizon]

Yeah so I reuploaded 5 times

[blissful horizon]

I think it’s for sure bugged

[spice elk]

you can report bugs in my discord, but make sure you can reproduce the bug WITHOUT ANY OTHER MODS LOADED ON THE SERVER

[blissful horizon]

I did. I cleared all of it.

[spice elk]

yeah so please submit the bug report along with server logs and steps to reproduce in my discord

[blissful horizon]

Is your discord linked in here?

[spice elk]

yes it is in the pins, make sure you follow the bug report instructions

[blissful horizon]

Got it

[valid totem]

Loadouts appear to no longer be saving to the server files. Players reporting loadouts aren't showing up on reentry to the server.
Do I need to do something on my end for the update? Or is this intentional?

[spice elk]

Try latest version

[main star]

had the same issue upon leaving the server our loadout go poof

on latest version

[spice elk]

Latest as of when you had the problem or latest as of right now double checked there were no updates before reporting?

[main star]

one moment i’ll check our server but we just recently restarted it. happened now but might be on a slightly older version if you’ve updated multiple times today - soz

[spice elk]

If the version you report issue with is 5 seconds outdated your report is invalid

[main star]

:((

[main star]

i’m sorry i committed the cardinal sin of not checking my version, i shall offer my life as compensation - you were right

[spice elk]

Its ok

ty for updating BLE. If you haven't seen this yet here's your system hard at work.

[fierce sigil]

Sorry to ask bacon but would it be possible to make saved GM loadouts replace faction units? It would make custom factions easier but I’m just wondering

[viral arrow]

I don't think that's doable on runtime

[high leaf]

any plans for a ris ii handguard for the M4 SBR?

[shadow tendon]

why did u ruin the loadout editor

[spice elk]

Wanted it to resemble your attitude

[analog fox]

what was even ruined though?

[spice elk]

No u dont understand it's ruined

[umbral cradle]

Is it the Velcro sound if so it’s funny

[spice elk]

It's the best feature

[umbral cradle]

Truth

[last badger]

A mod that replaces all game sounds with the velcro sound is needed

[oak parrot]

The new update to the loadout editor is very festive

[spice elk]

no idea what u talkin about

[spice elk]

I will roll it back because it crashes instantly when you have RHS enabled and u try opening it

[oblique fjord]

Thank you I didn’t know that was happening but is appreciated

Me:

[swift sluice]

Hello Bacon
Is there something I might have missed to get the Big Range Antenna to work? Right now, it doesn’t seem to function properly.
Does it need to be at the top of the selected mods list?
I’ve also tried running it with only that mod enabled, but it still doesn’t seem to work.
If I’m standing under the antenna, others can sometimes hear me, but I can’t hear them.
Not sure what the issue could be, any advice would be greatly appreciated!

[spice elk]

All I did was duplicate the "standard" antenna and set its radio range to 9999999

[swift sluice]

its wired why it dosent work then

[spice elk]

Do you use some mod that has custom radios? Maybe it works on vanilla radios only or something?

[swift sluice]

right now we only have that mod on to try to see if it was any of the other mods but still nothing
we have it on our second server and full vanilla and still nothing

[spice elk]

do the vanilla antennas work at extending radio range?

[swift sluice]

yes the vanilla antennas still work
and there is no problem with them if i place enough

[spice elk]

maybe something changed in recent update

I can see in the mod tools that the range is setup correctly

did you create the antenna for the correct faction? I have no other ideas, will try to test it this week

[swift sluice]

Hmm this is wired...
yes everything was set up correctly
same faction as us and same radio as well

[spice elk]

OK!!! I swear it worked in testing, I will test this week and let you know

[swift sluice]

Thank you! Take your time
it’s not a big issue.
And Merry Christmas to you! 🎄

[sleek tusk]

Bacon I can’t deploy parachute if I ragdoll

[quartz vortex]

whatever you jump out of has to be autohovering

Oh

[wicked tapir]

Or in my case on xbox wants your password and makes you panick that you installed a virus 🤣

[quartz vortex]

you know its parental controls when your xbox asks for a password when opening edge, right..?

[molten torrent]

Wait, Is the parachute back?

[wicked tapir]

Not parental controls, just a personal choice to have account locked down and need password when doing things. I added as a safeguard, but it only shocked me cause I wasn't expecting it, I was expecting BLE to turn up

[spice elk]

the mod is called Bacon Loadout Editor by the way

[summer verge]

1 of the Best mods out there i must add 🫡

Merry xmas people 🎄

[spice elk]

You guys will not be able to see it because the game decides to crash instantly for some people, so at least have this video. The faction colored santa suits are in though.

[pale coral]

no nerf from gmfx?

[spice elk]

The game instantly crashing with zero logs or info has kind of discouraged me from continuing

[wicked tapir]

Am aware, just using its shorthand

[sleek tusk]

Will u make parachutes in different models

I mean the backpack

[quasi pendant]

NOT ANOTHER ANNOYING SOUND NOOOOOOOO

[quasi pendant]

🤓

[spice elk]

Please dial down the spam

[spice elk]

No plans, feel free to make your own item/reskin, as long as it is a separate item from the one that comes with the mod.

[quasi pendant]

I apologize if you already answered this, but is the Classified mod broke?

[spice elk]

Yes it does not have a job currently

[quasi pendant]

Bacon is burning me

[hollow zenith]

I just had a thought. With the admin tools you said you get the list off the in game list... that guy wasn't on that list but I was able to get his arma ID off my client side console log. Im assuming the server also has a console log that generates... I know this is a significant change but if the admin tools could grab the data in that file would that not be a more thorough way of populating the player list?

[spice elk]

Ultimately I think the responsibility to combat cheaters rests on the company that is being paid to do it - BattlEye. Unfortunately, it seems they are not interested in working on the issue.

The ID you have located may very well be spoofed and changed every so often by the person.

There may be some things I could do but I am not sure that it is worth it. Especially not without having my hands on the cheats.

[quasi pendant]

Fighting cheaters is a losing battle ngl

[hollow zenith]

Lol and good luck with that... even if you could get a copy all those a**hats put backdoors, killswitches, bitcoin miners etc into their cheats so I wouldn't want you to infect your rig with that bull

[analog fox]

whats going on With Cheaters? Reforger has a Hacking problem?

[spice elk]

Just like fighting your pings

[spice elk]

@valid totem great work with the vests, it has motivated me to do some more work with the camera system to make it not go down to the ground so often, hopefully it does not break other things...

[valid totem]

Thanks. This was a grueling 3 months of work and we're still not done with it. I'm ecstatic we're able to do things like this with the loadout editor. The future is gonna be crazy.

[strong pasture]

What mod is that?

[spice elk]

Darkgru Vests

[strong pasture]

Cheers

[sullen wolf]

Why are all the mod gear in the wrong place?

[main star]

they aren’t updated to the new skeleton

[spice elk]

wrong thread? I did not make those clothes

[wispy stirrup]

bacon how did you make your ap mines?

[terse crater]

This should have been the way the Loadout inventory worked from the beginning, deep characterization and a UI that acts like it 360 degrees! I'm more and more convinced that Devs don't play Arma! Great work, thanks!

[spice elk]

It's an area trigger, basically

[spice elk]

Thanks! Now we have the vests and a cool m4

[wispy stirrup]

If I were to make it accessible from arsenal would simply dropping it on the ground work?

[spice elk]

it is not an item so I dont think so

[wispy stirrup]

You should totally make it an item

[spice elk]

no u

[wispy stirrup]

I wish I knew how

[spice elk]

I tried it once but I kept blowing myself up when placing it and gave up

[wispy stirrup]

People gotta make more tuts on arma reforger

[spice elk]

I hope bohemia can make actual AP mines instead so we can stop using my spaghetti code

[wispy stirrup]

Tryna make sum like this and idk how

[quasi pendant]

Check the wiki

[wispy stirrup]

I checked there’s not much for turrets

[quasi pendant]

https://community.bohemia.net/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Car_Modding

[spice elk]

inherit the pkm turret and replace the weapon in the weapon slot with the rocket pod?

[terse crater]

Can't find that mod! Is already in the workshop?

[main star]

yes it’s in the workshop i’ve noticed a lot of issues with mods randomly being unlisted so that may have happened.

[finite orbit]

I can’t seem to find this mod unless the workshop is playing up?

[spice elk]

Link is in the message I was replying to, you could also try getting it from one of their servers

[finite orbit]

Seen. I was able to download it via attempting to join one of their servers.

The workshop search function must be playing up 🙄 thanks mate.

[proper bane]

So funny how I see some mods not on the workshop you know what’s up with that?

[shadow tendon]

mf fix ur mod instead of being a bum

[glad stump]

hello Bacon, is it possible to load a custom image from local server ROM in this line: "serverMessageHeaderImage": "mission", ?

[spice elk]

nah i dont play experimental

any image GUID should work there as long as it's inside the game or mods

[glad stump]

allright thanks

It’s why we shoot the enemy in the Kunar map ☠️

[wispy stirrup]

Could you make the mines be placed via construction truck?

[spice elk]

you could, probably

[wispy stirrup]

What’s the config for construction trucks

[spice elk]

dont know off the top of my head, I'd just go in and find out how it works

[wispy stirrup]

I would but I’m still learning enfusion lol

[rose elk]

Hi anyone knows if the "MORE DAMAGE" mod also applies to the AI?

[fleet imp]

Probably so, because it modifies the bullet damage values, I think…?

[rose elk]

Thanks. Do you know if it's working with the current update?

[spice elk]

Yes it works, it applies to all characters not just players.

[barren plover]

Would it be possible to make all the vanilla ALICE rigs modular to where you can change what is placed around the belt so you can make your own rig

[quartz vortex]

bacon probably wouldn't do that but im sure someone might make a mod for it/it ends up being in arma 4

[barren plover]

Well it wasn't like a mod request it was more or less a question of how difficult it would be with his modding experience

[spice elk]

Ez

[proper bane]

@spice elk can I call you? It’s important 😭

[molten torrent]

Is there plans to fix the ragdoll from the parachute mod?

Sorry if this has been asked before

[spice elk]

Not sure what that means but probably not

[molten torrent]

So when you jump from a moving helicopter you can't deploy the chute you just rag doll and die

[humble helm]

You’ve got to hover and drop, it’s an Arma thing with adding ragdoll after ejecting from moving vehicles

[flint parcel]

I’m not sure on why but whenever someone in my server fires the URG I or any of the M4 variants the person firing it their game crashes

[obsidian swift]

I have it on my own server as well and use it as dependency for my Beryl pack and it never caused me any of the issues you've described. Could it be that you have some other mod that could cause this?

[flint parcel]

I’m unsure if I’m honest. It was working earlier on and I’ve added a few other mods to the server but nothing that I think could be conflicting with this pack. But I could be wrong. Everything else seems to work fine

[obsidian swift]

I know it's tedious, but to make this easier for bacon I'd advise to remove few mods that you've recently added (where/when this issues started happening) and test/troubleshoot if it's happening still

[flint parcel]

That was my next option tbh. I’ll try that. Thank you mate

[molten torrent]

I figured, that's why I was wondering if there'd be a fix. My group is a 101st airborne milsim based around WW2 so it's a bit hard to do it that way

[spice elk]

Feel free to report this as a bug if you can reproduce this without using any other mods. People sometimes report to me that my mod crashes their server and the in the logs I see that they are using Super Ultimate Graphics Enhancement Pack Michael Bay Edition 5000 and it kind of makes the bug report worthless.

[flint parcel]

Okay an worries, I’ll do that and where do I find such a mod like that 🤣

[spice elk]

I'm kind of exaggerating

[flint parcel]

I know, I know aha

[hushed aspen]

Happy new year lord bacon

[spice elk]

@plush dagger this is what happens when I slap in what I think is penetration value of the real APIT bullet the gun uses, this appears a bit overpowered?

BZT round Penetration 15 mm RHA at 100 m range and 30 degree impact angle (from perpendicular), tracer burn time 5 seconds.

[plush dagger]

I would gauge the overpowered potential by what it could do to buildings, tanks and anything else it shouldnt be penning.

[spice elk]

oh wait it says 100 meters I calculated speed at 1000m

[plush dagger]

so more overpowered?

[spice elk]

It should be less because I put in 15mm of RHA at 409m/s which would be the speed of the bullet after it travels 1000 meters

[plush dagger]

Sabot incendiary HE-T AA sounds pretty cool tho

[spice elk]

its so weird, it catches on fire when I shoot the cabin when its stationary but when it moves I need to fire 4x as many rounds for the same effect

[plush dagger]

one of the theories besides desync hits was that the vehicles were speeding past the explosion effect, idk how dumb that is

[spice elk]

this used to be a bug in the game actually, I tested land vehicles

but I am testing in singleplayer now, so idk

anyway I will publish it and we can find out how it works in multiplayer

[plush dagger]

Nice, I'll let you know

so what exactly are you changing? the penetration or the bullet ratio or

[spice elk]

penetration and I changed incendiary damage from 4 to 6 (per bullet)

[plush dagger]

Nice idk why I worried to bother you and tandem for so long, yall are chill.

[spice elk]

On the contrary, I am the worst

[steady girder]

I am almost 100% convinced that is what is happening after modding for a while tbh .

[spice elk]

regression of this bug? #enfusion_physics message

[plush dagger]

I wasn't able to test much except for long long range and it just wasn't working unfortunately. New map doesn't suit this AA. Is there any chance at getting a different scope if theres something historically accurate or less smoke? I can't see anything. I lean towards tandems 57mm cannon anyways since they wont give me a T3485 or a T55 to kill helis.

[spice elk]

did the server use updated version though?

[plush dagger]

Im pretty sure yeah

[spice elk]

Darn I really need someone to fly around me on a server so I can shoot in a more real world scenario

[plush dagger]

match restarted 3:12, 2 hours ago

[plush dagger]

I might know a guy if you want to be gunner in a Mi24 while hes doing the rockets

[spice elk]

I mean I can just make a test server just need volunteers

[plush dagger]

ohh I misunderstood

but let me know if you need help, I love tes
ting stuff and learning more aboutthe mods and stats

[jade mulch]

Bacon ak when?

[spice elk]

you got a few minutes now to hop on a server with me?

[plush dagger]

yeah this server is lame with then new map and US getting slaughtered so no helis in the air. I should mention that Im going to need to relearn the go up and go down keys for helis

[spice elk]

its ok u can be the gunner

[plush dagger]

its been a while. I can fly and land most of the time under non combat circumstances

cool cool, lets do meet in 10 or 15 minutes and im down

[spice elk]

ok!! server name Bacon ZU-23 Test ping me when you in there or about to be

[plush dagger]

wait do I acutally need to do anything or just be meat? I could just afk and do whatever or respawn as needed

[spice elk]

we need 1 guy to shoot and 1 guy to fly

[plush dagger]

I found a guy

[spice elk]

alr ima load in

[plush dagger]

it might be a few people. what exactly are you testing with the heli gunner?

[spice elk]

no I want to shoot helis with zu-23

[plush dagger]

right right I thought you might actually want me to shoot back and was confused lol

[spice elk]

thanks guys

[plush dagger]

did we actually do anything lol

[spice elk]

yes, want to try again? made some changes

[plush dagger]

I'll ask them, I just hopped off for a bit.

They were talking about how smokey the guns were and I noticed it was def worse in the last match I played

did my people join?

[spice elk]

Yeah great success thank you, the mod is now 162 times better thanks to you guys

[spice elk]

@past lintel ended up with this for now, did a red tracer

[broken oasis]

Question Bacon. Will the M82 ever see say more variants like M82A2/3, M107s or is it just a meme weapon that’ll stay with the current two we have?

[spice elk]

I have no plans for any new weapons

[broken oasis]

Got it o7

[quasi pendant]

There’s a bug with moving armor

It either makes armor non existent or it makes it op its a gamble

[spice elk]

where's that bug documented?

[polar wren]

How did you get the bullet trajectory to appear on your screen?

[severe olive]

Hey bacon, trying to start using your server hoster because nitrado playing up, how do I do it? What's the website

[polar wren]

DM him

[severe olive]

Ty

[plush dagger]

I really didn't do much besides complain and apparently yall did it all. I'm going to have to ask my buddies what all they learned and about taking down helis. I'm also curious how much of what yall learned could be applied to tandem's 57mm APIT cannon. He told me it fires projectiles with the same explosive power as soviet 40mm gl. I'll have to go back and look at the details, but I really like sniping helis with the cannons. I want it to work so bad.

[fierce sigil]

Bacon you should add a effect that’s just tracers in the sky, like that can be added as a distant ambient effect

[spice elk]

you can do it with bacon photo props but it has no sound

[spice elk]

One problem is I had the rounds 3:1 HE:AP but needs to be 1:1. It is now very easy to cook helicopters.

[plush dagger]

I noticed the tracers on insurgency turned back to green on one of the next matches and not sure what means exactly. I also was lacking testing material because its so hard to get in range of any helis on that map. There is also an issue with the 23mm truck bouncing and crashing something metal into the ground while rotating the gun and while driving. I'd set up somewhere with the parking break on and have it start rolling bouncing and sliding around. This clip is from 1:35 AM eastern, and I believe that match started at 3:12 PM yesterday, so 18 hours ago.

I havent had much practice with it but that looks like a decent amount of hits

[spice elk]

this looks like old version basically, spread is different

I noticed the thing about the truck sliding, will look at it over the weekend

[wraith harness]

you can always add some physical recoil to make life slightly worse

https://youtu.be/7B9WTLb_1Sc

[spice elk]

is there vanilla support for this or do I have to script

[wraith harness]

you will have to script, there was something about physical recoil in 1.3 changelog, but i cant trust BI to have not hardcoded cool features

[wraith harness]

suboptimal

[spice elk]

the truck drifting with handbrake on is probably something to do with physics of the gun/turret

[proven shoal]

release it

Let it escape into the wild

[quasi pendant]

Please release lmfao

[pale coral]

can no one read the versions of mods? should be first instinct

[plush dagger]

I don't think it starts becoming an issue unless someone hops in the gun and moves it from the original spawn position so I believe that.

[spice elk]

This is the best I could get AI to aim

They dont even try to lead the target they just aim around the center so it really is bad against moving targets

[glass dirge]

How are they so accurate with RPGs but so abysmal with guns? They'll nail you with an RPG from 300m against a truck doing 80km/h but can't hit a helicopter with a gun to save their lives

[spice elk]

Maybe some code related to the weapon type? Let's try changing the ZU-23 to Launcher...

No difference in aiming, but they now fire 1 bullet at a time only

Interestingly I changed the AI ballistic tables for the bullets to UGL grenades and it made no difference, so I think the turret aiming system is the thing that makes them not lead targets and not aiming in general

[glass dirge]

Huh, hopefully we'll eventually see some changes/upgrades to it. With rocket pods coming itd be really nice to be able to use AI on M2/NSV emplacements as ad hoc air defense

[fierce sigil]

Is there a way to make static muzzle flashes in the bacon photo props because I keep trying to catch the muzzle flashes by pausing for a picture

[knotty dragon]

I believe AI weapon leading is a feature currently in testing on experimental? I saw it in the notes

[wispy stirrup]

is gm effects gone?

@spice elk

[spice elk]

wat is gm effects?

[wild mango]

Check pins

[fierce sigil]

Quick little image made thanks to bacon photo props, sadly it’s low quality

[spice elk]

Not really 😦 sowwy

[acoustic ibex]

Record it then edit your video in slow motion and then snap a shot of when the muzzle flashes

The zu 23 does bring them down a lot easier now, perhaps too easy. But the cockpit is still damn near invincicble. I'm going to have to talk with the creator of the little bird and black hawks next. Cuts through humvees like butter.

except not sure why it wasn't smoking or on fire... - oh I forgot this was from a previous version of the mod a few days ago.

Best way to test ZSU is to test it against vanilla helicopters. If they drop easily then yes it is an exterior mod issue and not the ZSU

Vanilla helis are just the hueys and mi8s? The transports or? idk I only play vietnam and insurgency.

This is old version

Looks like someone modified the ZU-23 on that server, ammo count is wrong as well

You mean it spawning with 48/50 rounds?
