Happens to me as well with at least all of the Marksman DLC guns. http://gfycat.com/RevolvingTastyHawk

Dupe of #23567.

That is intended. If you gone prone, you will use your elbow as a deployment point. The ticket can be closed.

Next time, use the search function: #0023567

im have add the crashlog

Here is one more dump, hopefully this will speed up things.
in this case i tried to load model _ctrl ctrlsetmodel "laserTgt.p3d"
as you can see it have no path to file. only file name.

In the same time loading _ctrl ctrlsetmodel "\A3\Weapons_f\laserTgt.p3d"
is perfectly legal and works fine.

In this specific case this is clearly config error, some one specified not full path but only file name.

it is also confirmed that following will crash A3 100%
_ctrl ctrlsetmodel "";

VehicleConfigs often have many base classes with wrong or empty model info.
By model info I mean (configfile >> "CfgVehicles" >> "my_vehicle_name" >> "model")
And there is no way to detect for sure if it is correct or not.

Finally config may present while model is missing.

Most likely things are much harder inside arma, than i might imagine.
But all is needed is to check if given model exists/loaded, and if it is not
found, load "\A3\Weapons_F\empty.p3d"

Maybe I have some additional information regarding this ticket. I was building a 3D preview for my Map Builder editor put people complained about random crashes. Looks like some models, like the (shiny) fuelstation crashes ArmA3. Also some people reported, that they have random crashes with previewing objects that worked before. So I conclude that invoking ctrlsetmodel often with different models can crash A3 too.
So ctrlsetmodel has probably two problems: Some objects crash A3 and switching often crash A3.

Anyone can reproduce this error by installing Map Builder 0.7 and quickly go through the objects library or directly go to fs_pump (or other fs_*** objects).

Yes, indeed. At the moment, HC is a very left out, almost forgotten feature in my opinion.

This is an excellent idea. We need further integration of High Command into the rest of Arma 3's features, and tweaking HC accordingly for a fluid experience.

Issue persists in latest stable (1.54.133570).

Issue persists in latest stable (1.48).

Hello,

I'm unable to reproduce your issue. Could you please provide more info? Thank you.

Sorry, seems to be an issue for a mod.
With ArmA vanilla, the issue disappeared.

+1 I believe this is on stable build as well, and has been for a long time

"roger that" thanks

I flew cas-jets for the last two days and it happened always during those two days.
I'm usually chopper pilot, no problem there.

i'm still unable to reproduce your issue. Please try reproducing it on Steam Dev or wait until stable branch update drops today and reproduce it there. Thanks

Did it happen once or does it always happen when flying in a jet with map open?

Was on an Invade&Annex Server (IP: 85.25.10.43:2302).
settings:
nose up - mouse down (only)
nose down - mouse up (only)
roll left - mouse left (only)
roll right - mouse right (only)
Headtracking (Freetrack) on/off same problem
Mouse: Logitech G5
I set a marker with (Shift+LMB) and when I press (M) to exit the map, I'm facing the ground and crash.

Hello,

I'm unable to reproduce your issue could you plese provide more info? Thank you for your feedback.

"you need to order it to heal"

For the player could do it, he should know that the AI is wounded!
But very often the AI is silent and does not report the injury! For this reason, the player not always can order the AI to use self-medication.
The problem described here: http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=22078

If the AI was able to treat himself, without orders then that would solve the problem

AI is able to heal itself when it is acting alone. But if it is a subordinate in a group, you need to order it to heal. This is a correct behaviour and not an issue.

Thank you for your feedback

Never mind i must of glitched it or was running mods when i did it, its working fine now. sorry for wasting your time, i will report back in if i have any other problems.

I played the Infantry showcase in the Marksmen RC and completed it a lot easier than past versions.

I tried out the Scuba-showcase and 2 seconds on the surface got the adversaries' attention and they immediately sent the helicopter to assert their territory, skimming the waters, and shifting one of their sentries to the shore who took me out on my next rise to the surface.

Unless you were pointing at specific matters that do not belong in the way Arma 3 is to be played, I found nothing out of the ordinary here. Please explain further how what you described does not fit into the gameplay of Arma 3.

Hello and thank you for your feedback i had no issues finishing both scuba and infantry. The helicopter did not hunt me after sabotaging the boat and my squad survived the first group in infantry multiple times. Could you please provide more info?

@JojoTheSlayer I see. Sorry for calling you out, it's that I was shocked at the strong reaction of the community in the wake of the weapon resting update. Other tickets had been hounding BI because of the weapon deployment discrepancy, and the devs got defensive. I guess that is partly why BI seems to be unreceptive of this issue at the moment.

EDIT: upvoted the ticket. Bohemia Interactive, please reconsider the status of this issue.

http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?189003-Weapon-Resting-amp-Deployment-Feedback&p=2918578&viewfull=1#post2918578

This poor feature should be removed from A3!

I think, this is not a bug. it's a poorly implemented feature.
Because of this, it looks not realistic.

I also noticed that it has a poor deployment on the hillside: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvYGew00jss&feature=youtu.be
Deployment takes on a tilt! If the weapon is deployed without the bipod, this should not happen.

BIS! Please change the status of this topic!
Deployment without bipod has a lot of problems.
This deploying without bipod looks poorly implemented, because:

1. not considered a personal characteristics of the current weapon( lenght of magazine (the height of the player aiming under ground)
2. does not have the correct animations (animation of deployment, shows us the weapons, with emphasis only on the elbows of the soldier)
3. uses always a same limited angle of rotation.
4. uses the incorrect icon showing the bipod, while the bipod is not a player
5. is not correct on the slope of the hillside (watch video)

or make the details or remove it in general!

Downvoted thus Im one of those guys or fanboy that thinks that is not a bug, rather a feature request.

Adam - "This is not an issue but a feature."
JojoTheSlayer - "Well this 'feature' is totally unrealistic."

Aside from the bipod issue, this is juvenile and disrespectful to the devs :/

This is not the place to discuss or complain about whether or not features that the developer intended to be in the game is good or not. This is the place to report bugs.

"the deploy function doesn't depend on the use of bipods"

@Koala I mean only a flat and empty ground.
On this ground there is only one way deploying!
To put the weapon on magazin, which located in the bottom of the weapon.
Thus, all further will depend on lenght of this magazin.
If you tell the world another way, then you will make the world discovery!

Please note, that there is a weapon which has a very short magazin or not in general. (as a fulcrum)
Today, these details are not realised out in A3. When deploying weapons, the player will always have one height of the aiming, relative to the ground, one limitation of rotation!
Also there is no animation, in which the player has put their weapons on the magazin.
Today, animation of deployment, shows us the weapons, with emphasis only on the elbows of the soldier! For this reason, I think that the deployment of weapons without bipod, looks not realistic. The details are not implemented!
Resume: If you do deploy weapons without the bipod, on a flat surface, then the developers need:

1. Take into account the personal characteristics of the weapon (length of magazins)
2. To make personal animation, the position of the soldier
3. Fix icon(to make personal icon, without bipod)

Or just leave as it was: The player in the prone position, can have the aiming only on the his elbows! The other deployment in the game, should be only using a bipods!

@Podder "Aside from the bipod issue, this is juvenile and disrespectful to the devs :/"

BI aims for a realistic or close to realistic game, but the problem is they now seem to listen more to people with little experience or none at all.

I am a exMil qualified instructed on both assault rifles, light machine guns and other. I also have a decent amount of experience in shooting in difficult terrain. Its not a "gamer" opinion I have on this.

Pointing out that something first seen as a bug, by probably mostly exMils I would assume, isnt a good feature. Is aimed at proving BI with proper information. It has nothing to do with "disrespect".

I see the majority voted down.
After updating 1.42. the player got invisible bipod and THIS NONSENSE like for most users! In the what do you want to turn ARMA? Maybe in the Unreal Tournament!?

Unfortunately For me it's not the indicator of the presence of not crazy users, but and blind users!
I have provided special images, but few people saw, that the both prone positions are practically are identical and that the icon, which shows bipod that do not exist at the player! In both cases, the player caharacter relies on his elbows. However, the BIS says that the weapon is deployed!

BIS, you should to clean this nonsense.
Why then you add bipods, if the any weapon can be deployed, without bipods?

Hey Mickeymen,

the deploy function doesn't depend on the use of bipods. Even your arms or elbows can act like a deploy point (personal experience on the shooting range).

If you like, take a look at my fresh created feature request. That request maybe connects the deployment debate on a flat ground with a proper use of the prone position: #0023737

Bipods reduce the sway. You can test the differences.

Deploying a weapon without bipods while prone: You are using your elbow for stabilization. Maybe it doesn't look 100 percent perfect in the game, doesn't mean, it is not possible nor is it unrealistic.

This is not an issue but a feature.

Well this "feature" is totally unrealistic.

There is just no way in real life one would be able to do that.
Normal prone without "deploy" in this game is even more stable than real life. Adding a uber stable on top of that (edit: for none bipod weapons)just makes it silly.

Secondly, while not using LMG the character still changes from "rifle" stance to a LMG stance regardless of weapon. Yes, I do know that people can shoot in many dif ways, but the reason they use the rifle stance is, ironically, for more stability without a bipod and the more flat strait behind the weapon with both legs in a V. Is more commonly used with LMGs because you have a bipod, but you are most likely shooting full auto with larger calibers so you can more easily absorb recoil without it affecting your aim too much.

The way its ingame right now is the opposite of real life.
Which would be fluff if it wasnt for the fact this is supposed to be a mil infantry simulator.

Fixed what I could, thank you.

Thank you very much, your help is most appreciated.
