/downvoted, either you can fly or your plane explodes, damage has no effect on performance and whatever kills you will kill you anyway, HMG will still get you on seconds and any missile 1-shot-destroys you

@Dr Death, I'm afraid I don't follow.. are you saying the system should be as it is? I don't know about you, but your descriptions of damage never happen to me. Damage definitely should have an effect on performance, if you get an engine shot out, you should loose thrust from that side and enter a spiral/flameout state. I have never been one shotted by a missile, I also rarely take more than a couple of HMG bullets at a time, so for me at least, death by HMG is a slow process, where I take a bullet or two every strafing run, and eventually one bullet is the straw that breaks the camels back, and I spontaneously explode.
Please reread my ticket, your comment makes it appear to me that you did not read it carefully.

i am not talking about the damage model, i am talking about the damage warning.

Some of the issues are mentioned in repro missions in http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=18324. The issues should be improved a bit in the next Dev Branch update. Otherwise, please, give us feedback about any specific spots, where the AI reliably crashes in http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=18324

Thanks for the feedback!

THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN RESOLVED AS OF 4/20/2014 - 08:55

I figured out the issue, and I don't think it's just north stratis that has this problem but it's still kind of wacky. If an AI is driving to a waypoint that is NOT on a road, it will make a beeline to that waypoint from its last waypoint. This can be fixed by placing a waypoint on the road where you wish for the vehicle to divert off the road. However, I have been in AI vehicles where they automatically calculate this themselves, no extra waypoint required. This still may need patching but it is certainly less urgent now.

THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN UN-RESOLVED AS OF 4/20/2014 - 17:21

For some reason, the AI bug of the truck crashing into a wall has returned. I believe this happens as a result of the AI having to start too many times in a short period of time (editing missions and re-starting every time I need to fix a bug) and it may be fixed with a restart of Arma, I don't know for sure. Regardless, the crash-into-walls-as-soon-as-it-starts-driving-in-an-area-with-buildings/walls-in-it glitch needs to be fixed.

Still broken

Is there any new advice on this? The game I purchased is no longer playable.

1. I am able to play SP
2. Game Spy
3. Yes, I hosted a LAN game for myself successfully
4. Not familiar with Steam Dev version

Odd thing happened tonight. I tried a SP game, than hosted the LAN, and then tried to join a server via game spy, and it worked! But I could not repeat this and haven't been able to join anything again.

I have not previously tried connecting via Steam. When I hit connect in the server browser there, it takes me to the Arma 3 main menu, not directly to a game in progress. (Not sure what the expected behavior is)

I was able to join the one available MP server I found after switching to Development.

Hello,

can you please upload new crashdump files of the stable version of the game?
(crashdump is rpt + bidmp + mdmp file with same name)

C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local\Arma 3\

Thank you very much!

Any new ideas on this?

As I noted earlier, only rpt files exist in that directory.

Hello,

thank you for the answers. Could you please try to switch to Steam Dev and see if the problem is still present?

Thank you very much.

Hello,

few questions to help us focus on the problem.

1. Are you able to play single-player missions?
2. Are you joining through Game-Spy or Steam server list?
3. Are you able to host a multiplayer game (even on LAN)?
4. Are you experiencing the same behaviour with Steam Dev version?

Thank you a lot for answering these questions. It helps us a big way.

The game does not actually crash until I kill the process in the task manager. The altis map would otherwise stay on the screen indefinitely. I notice that my mouse cursor that is visible on the Altis map is the Window's cursor and changes shape based on the windows that were on the screen when I launched Arma.

Hello,

it looks like the crash dumps were not created (we need rpt + bidmp + mdmp file). It could be that your game actually did not crash or it crashed and was killed off (via task manager) too quickly for crashdumps to create.

Next time it freezes, please try to wait a minute or two so the dumps have time to create. If there are no crashdumps after then, we'll try to find another solution.

Thank you.

Uploaded .rar file with several .rpt files from several crashes. No other file types (bidmp or mdmp) were in the folder.

Hello,
Thank you for reporting the issue.
We need crash dump files from this folder for solve your problem.
C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local\Arma 3\
Can you upload somewhere in winrar package please?
When package will be smaller than 5000k, you can attach it here. When package is bigger, please use some free sharing service and post link here.

How to find correct crashdump file:
Try to make the crash happen
Look into crashdump folder
Upload crashdump with latest date in name (crashdump is rpt + bidmp + mdmp file with same name)

Thank you.

That missing animation while swimming still exists in the latest main branch 1.54.133741

related to http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=20852

Hello,
thank you for the report. The problem has been assigned internally.

updated the description and steps to reproduce the bug

It is possible.

its also important for having an AI foot patrol in a village or around a base
even in Relax mode they still run around as if they saw something and need to get there very fast
this looks and feels awful and should be addressed
we need to be able to control the unit speed just like the regular waypoint system in the editor

Same here.

Experienced the same issue here

Reopening, issue apparently appeared again on Steam Dev 1.19.123875.

Should be re-fixed soon.

Fixed again in Steam Dev 1.19.123901.

Thanks for the info, BIS_Iceman !

I didn't even knew that an access to what you call a "Dev" version was possible.

I confirm, with beta version 1.19.123875, the mission work 100% !

Thanks again !

Hi BIS_Iceman,

Just redo the full mission right now (RESTART), on my current Steam Dev (1.16.123633) and all 64 grenades on a single vehicle don't detroy it. So it is STILL NOT fixed.

Hello,

current Steam Dev is now on version 1.19.123875. (You have been using Steam Stable version instead.)

On current Steam Dev, I am able to destroy all three MRAPs and all the soldiers surrounding them and still have enough ammo to continue.

64 grenades on single Hunters vehice and still almost no damage, obviously this mean that the new resistance is now set far far much too much high !!!

Dev team, please adjust this !!!

To my humble view, I would say 10 grenades should do the job.

Yes, the vehicle resistances were changed and now it's impossible to destroy the three Hunters with just 64 grenades (assuming you haven't spent any on the infantry). The easiest fix would be to increase the amount of ammo the Hunter you have to steal has.

Hello,

can you guys confirm that it is fixed on Current Steam Dev?

Thank you.

no problem, they are the same thing. feel free to keep this ticket open, this issue needs to be addressed. I only added that so that a dev could add my ticket as "related" in the relationships section.

thanks DemonGod - I'll close this and leave the info to have your's voted up.
I searched for IR strobe and not grenade, didn't think of that for some reason.

related to 0017968

I believe this was an issue in the main game before Zeus.

Just tested in editor IR= createvehicle ["NVG_TargetW",(getpos player),[],0,"NONE"]; does create and IR strobe at player's feet and deletevehicle IR removes the object and the flashing light source

Hello,

thank you for reporting the issue. Our team will look into it.
For further progress of the campaign, I'd recommend to switch to Steam Stable for now.

Thank you.

Hello,

this behaviour is intended. Thank you for your feedback,

Have a nice day!

Well, in that case vote up authentic pre-start systems checks and other fluff that just add extra actions without really adding anything to gameplay.

"Getting out" of the car action assumes you turned the engine off, just like taking off with a jet that you did all the pre-flight checks.

Do you always leave your engine running when you get out of your car? I don't, except in very specific situations.

It seems prudent to take the time and turn it off if you're not in a hurry. The default behavior is fine and the "engine off" still has a use. Many times when playing tank driver when not moving or in combat I turn the engine off so you can hear people talk on the radio/outside.

That's why u should click Engine OFF before exiting the vehicle

I've already said my idea, people are not according to it and that's ok!
Learn english before acting like a teacher :)

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/unuseful
It's a word.

Firstly, "unuseful" isn't a word.

What you're suggesting would make "Get out" useless. "Engine off" is used when you either want to jump out ("Eject") of a moving vehicle and still turn the engine off or when you want to, for example, be silent while still staying in your vehicle.

That's everything you have to say?

Hello,

could you please upload your rpt file?

Thank you very much!

I have never heard of this problem before. It is most likely computer based, however. Hopefully someone with more insight will comment.
