After loading custom preset using Arsenal function in Eden, game frozen in first person of random unit
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

After loading a class which was custom made in the Virtual Arsenal, clicking OK returns to the game world but places the camera in the "playable" view of the placed soldier. Using the movement keys shows the XYZ coordinates changing to match the key inputs, but the view remains the same. Using the map key opens up the map, right clicking and selecting "move here" moves the camera icon on the map screen, yet the view remains fixed on the unit. Creating a new scenario does not fix the issue as even though the entity is deleted the first person view, complete with weapon and arms, remains intact. {F28048}

Hello,

according to your attached picture you are using modifications (small symbol next to Asst.Autrifleman, Autorifleman, Engineer, Explosive Specialist, Pilot).

I was not able to repdroduce that issue in the RC branch with the vanilla content (I followed your reproduction steps).

Please disable all modifications and try to repdroduce that issue again.

Best regards

Ah, indeed when running without mods I could not reproduce this either, so there is no further complaint on my part. Still, it shows a mod issue which would be of note.

If the game still shows a modification issue (even if you have disabled all modifications) it seems that the system is trying to load some modificated content that is saved in the preset but not available anymore (some modificated uniform, weapon sight, item, backpack, weapon etc).

May I close the ticket?

Only seems to happen when you port old mission files to the new eden editor.
Ported my old mission using RHS Escalation to the eden editor, had the same issue. Made a new mission, placed down the same unit (Squad Leader, US Army) and then it worked just fine.

Yes, the ticket may close as we have ascertained the cause.
