There's already an issue for this, just go to View Votes and scroll down.

Really hate when people act like game development is some easy walk in the park, job/activity.

"guaranteed network messaging"
Didn't BI say something about that? Like in the change log or something?

Related to : <a href="http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=20363">0020363</a>. It may be DayZ, but its happening on many servers. Both Main and Dev branch.

I played yesterday and my desync was 0, though I still couldn't see helicopters... Guess its not related to the desync error, or the menu was late or something.

Even if they fix it, I don't think they will release a stable branch update any time soon.

(As a player) I have the same problem. I only saw about 3-5 people with a normal desync. This might the reason why I can't see helicopters in multiplayer.

Its not happening to everyone.

So its because your sharing your "My Documents" folder, Arma is unable to save there due to... file/folder protection?

I <I>think</I> this was intended. Isn't a teams score also their tickets?

Mission editors should be able to adjust the fatigue and sway system, same way we can adjust a units recoil. We can also have that merged with player's/servers option or skill setting.

You can blow separate parts off buildings to some extent... At least with the minigun.

Can't you just use
[unit] join createGroup EAST; ?

The units going to have to join a group anyway. So a setSide command is a bit useless because of that.

Maybe its UAC...?

Yea, still no sound, just text.

You can see the text but there's no sound...

I would like a 3D Editor, as the current one isn't to good. It would make it easier to place interactive items like Intel.

That does seem quite difficult. Are you asking for a module that would generate furniture like tables, chairs, etc. into a building?

Can't you disable certain actions on that menu? Like 'Eject'? If so, could you explain how?

So, your trying to state that we should be able to use other data types, more than just integers?
values[] doesn't seem to work with floats.

I also realized that the MRCO reticle does not fully show up without Depth Of Field enabled.

It works fine for me without any AA. Turning on FSAA kills my frames.

Because the BI has other important things to fix, like performance issues, while adding in new features.

I didn't vote down, but the people who did have a reason.

Never noticed, it happens in Arma 2, too.

Why vote down?
Is it an Optimization system or something?
I would like to know.

The Terrain Builder works again on the latest dev update.

Are you on the latest dev update with the tools? My addon builder compiles fine.
On a side note, with that latest update, the terrain builder doesn't seem to work anymore.

I think the program is looking for gdalExtensions.dll
They just miss spelled it...
Even if you rename it, you end up with the same error, except it's MSVCP110D.dll.

I'm not against animations for doors. Also, its not just one animation, depending on how they want to do it, they would need many animations of the player opening the door : standing, crouching if you will. Slamming the door, opening the door by turning the door knob. Then they got to script the AI to open the door right. Most of the time, at the moment, they just go through the door.

I never said sounds are important, but they are easier then animations.

It's not that important.

GPS?
There is the one that shows your squad mates, but only their formation.

I thought civilians flee when they see anyone with a weapon?

I was in the dev-branch.

OFF-TOPIC > Scripting AI is difficult. I've tried to do it in Unity.
ON-TOPIC > AI seem to run from grenades now.

"How simple player can use a script for this purpose? Simple-user is able to break brains himself, before he will be able to do something!
Please note, not every user can use complex scripting!"
The player is control robots, it's a video game.

Also, seeing how the mission editor modifies how AI uses flash lights, laser sights, etc. It probably should stay the way it is.

Though, I do agree that the AI should be better at by passing mines, at least with a explosive specialist in the group, and react when a grenade is near them.

I agree with Humay's points.

AI rearm and repair from other groups vehicles if the group leader is an AI. Also, AI Leaders tell AI to heal themselves or a tells a medic(or anyone with FAKs) to help them.

"AI Commander are incapable of using their optics to spot enemy units.
e.g. try standing silent near a tank but not in front of the gun, they won't notice u ever."

Do you mean that AI commanders don't us binoculars or laser designators?
Or they don't use thermal optics/visions?

The AI should use better cover, they hardly hide behind walls even if a leader uses the take cover command. They should use buildings windows and the like. Rather then just laying down in the middle of the road.

But they can simply be achieved with a little bit of scripting and waypoints.

"You attack the enemy base. This enemy base has two not activated attack-drones. You should have time to destroy this two drones before activation, otherwise, any UAV operator activates them and will use against you! "

Simply with scripting, You can wait or sleep for a while then make the UAV move with waypoints or with 'move', 'doMove' or any of the commands like that. if it was hardcoded into the engine for AI to automatically take control of drones, the player wouldn't get little to no time at all, to destroy the drones.

" If you place UAV operator of any enemy squad, then this enemy UAV operator could use reconnaissance drone, through this increasing the combat efficiency of his squad (for example weapon accuracy). You, in turn, would destroy this reconnaissance drone. The multiplier of "weapon accuracy" should be increased by 15-20% with every activated drone, which will raise into the sky any bot of UAV-operator class."

If you really want to do this, why don't you put a reconnaissance drone as a group member for your enemies?

Its useless for mission editors because we can just waypoint the drone it's self, animate AI to make it look like it's using a drone if we want.
Although, it would be nice if a player could order a UAV Operator to take control of a drone.

Well the AI controlling drones is pretty...
useless...

Oh yeah, it was the Ottawa treaty.

AI leaders, under certain circumstances, should order AI units or players to assemble static weapons. Unless there's a script command to do so.

"When I remember these games, I meant only the possibility to use the grenade launcher against infantry."
Are you saying cod AI sometimes uses grenade launchers on their own?

"Man, don't be so naive! Such weapons as Classic RPG or all variations Classic AK (Kalash), will be useds till than 100-150 years in the all fighting on the planet! Because it is cheap and reliable weapon and it very much!
Even Nil Blomkamp knows about it.
See the film Elysium, where the action takes place in the year 2154, I am sure that this is can be real. "

Trust me, no real army will be touching that old thing in 2035.
Not even independent armies.

As far as I remember, I've never seen BF AI throw a single grenade.
I wouldn't say COD AI is bad, but they seem to throw grenades whenever they feel like, doesn't matter how many enemies are there, they'll just throw one if they can't shoot the AI.

"It is a pity that in the game is not present a RPG-7"
The game takes place in 2035, which is why they have the newer RPG.

I believe that ban only applies to some countries.

Does the Geneva Convention prevent people from using Missile Launchers on other humans? I know they banned flame throwers. Only people from groups like Somalian Pirates would fire an RPG at a human, they don't follow Geneva rules.

AI can use laser sights and flashlights. You must enable them with a script command. With the Laser Sights, they'll only enable them in a fight.

The UAV or Drones are controlled on they're own when a player doesn't take control them. The Greyhawk will shoot and move on its own, the turrets ( Mk30A and the like ) will fire on its own... They are autonomous...

Don't AI stop moving if the leader orders them to get support from the player?

So we would have to move the explosive from our backpacks to the vest then put it down?

Why can't I just open the backpack, take the mine from there, then put it on the ground?

Can BI even unban players from other dedicated servers?

Why can't you host a Co-op match?

Well, I personally think they should remove it. I don't think people should be able to throw grenades while falling like that.

Why do you think its useless to remove the ability to throw grenades while falling/sky diving?

There are so many mods that put new weapons into the game. Go download those...

I think it has something to do with the isCurator function.

Oh, use the arsenal to load/change vehicle cargo?

This actually is a good reason for BI to make or fix the/a 3D editor. We can't edit multiple attached waypoints on one building easily...

They didn't include this in 1.48. It's not in the update notes.

This happens with deleting objects. If its not allowed, "Deleting entities is not available", but the object will still be deleted.

The issue is fixed, in a way. Your still going to get frame drops due to heavy cannon fire, but you frames won't drop to 0.

Works for me, in the dev branch, of course my FPS drops but not to 0.

It also says the name shows up on the map but, it never does.

It seems to be fixed in the dev branch...

I also believe bullets are affected by wind in Arma 3. At least at very high speeds.

Well, in the campaigns config, there are options/variables to make it a coop campaign. Never tried them yet.

There going to add sling loading. Maybe they'll fix it while doing that.

I guess they can make it a separate option to disable it during command menu and other menus that show it.
It completely leaves with Weapon Crosshairs disabled.

So, is there anyway BI can make old saves work with new scenario updates/game updates?

When any of you guys lose sound, do the subtitles disappear? If I give an order after my sound has been disabled by the game, I don't see subtitles and none of the orders actually occur. ( So If I ordered a soldier to stop, I would see no subtitle and they would not stop ) Does this happen to anyone else?

Sometimes ArmA 3 stops playing sound through one speaker of my USB headphones. Only happens on ArmA 3. When I pause the game, both speakers work. If I alt-tab when it happens, and test the sound/headphones, sound plays through both speakers.

Happens to me sometimes, randomly in game, I just restart.

Does it only happen when you have headphones plugged in?

What exactly can you put in an extension that you can't do with SQF? I know extensions use C, but I can't think of a reason for what they could supply addon makers with...

By dedicated, you simply mean an Internet server, right?

Doesn't really matter. It's not like pointing out how girls/woman are in the military or how many play ArmA will make the job of creating them easier.
Bohemia didn't say they don't want to put females in their game. They said they don't have the resources.

The only reason I said that they might get in trouble was because people got annoyed that in GTAV, you can do stuff with women...
Filed lawsuits and all that "fun" stuff.

Maybe their scared of people RP prostitutes or something...
That would get them in trouble even though it's not their intentions.

I have a feeling that if they put official females in ArmA 3, the editor will cease to exist...

The Dev's already explained why they can't do it right now.

Probably not going to happen anytime soon. Maybe in the expansion plan. They've already planned their road map, and their probably not going to change it now.

I'm assuming the person just put female heads in, right?

This probably won't be in Arma 3. Arma 5, maybe? Highly doubt it will make it in to Arma 4 either. It isn't too important anyway.

By saying "its not a big deal" are you trying to point out that's its something we shouldn't complain about if its added or are you trying to point out that women are easy to add to the game?

You can always spawn a light and attach it to the helicopter for the time being.

The follow waypoint does work. They will move up after the unit they are following is a certain amount of meters away from the "following" squad.

It says 'Reviewed'. Doesn't mean it will ever become assigned.

I think they might put it in the expansion...
Maybe their slowly polishing it.

Well, I think they should have a use button and keep the action menu...
ArmA has so many binds already...

Well, it only happens to OA and arma2 maps right?

What happened to the Lens Flare in ArmA 3? They had it in images...

Don't they have a class/unit type per faction, that has all the properties/variables for the medic, repair, etc. functions?

It does have the respawn module, but that's useless unless you setup the respawn system in the description.ext file. <b>twistking</b> was asking for respawn scripting options to be in the editor GUI.

I don't think respawn scripting would be possible through the editor because that stuff goes into the description.ext file. Unless the game will write one for you.

They have green, red, and yellow tracers in the game. Some are disabled and you can only get the magazine by scripting, some other weapons just don't have those other tracer types.

Doesn't give them the right to implement it.
