Thank you for the report. It is true that the icon on our sensors shows an aircraft and we will look into that. However you are able to lock onto the target with ATGM rockets. The vehicle needs to have engine running for the rocket to lock on.

Has gotten even worse now for me, using voicemeeter to try and reduce the effects but I get huge fps drops when flying over buildings or just being near buildings on the ground.

Added comment:
To reproduce that (2 minutes in vanilla Arma, launching included!), you just need to set unconsious **the marksman** (unit 4) in the squad of 8 (vanilla infantry blue weapon squad).
Don't ask me why this specific unit... probably a sub-leader (team leader) but this impacts the whole group!

Scratch that, found the issue. Thank you for the report we will have a look at it.

Are the vehicles that are targeted moving or at least have their engines turned on? Otherwise you will not be able to lock onto said targets.

Thank you for the report, we will have a look at it.

Also having that issue - Is there any known workaround?

Thank you for the report. We are aware of this issue.

Hello,
This problem still persists.
I am in Windows 10 stable version.
Any fix plz ?
thx

@Wulf please close this ticket, issue was fixed

I didn't have this issue for a time now, mainly because I deleted all drivers and went with windows provided ones. And today I've got G933 headset. Guess what - issue persists, 64 bits client hangs after any sounds are played.

While the issue of dive bombing attacks will more than likely never be resolved in A3, one small tweak to the Blackfish sensor suite can greatly help from my testing. Please look at removing the radar and adding the man sensor aligned along one of the guns axis. With the whole squad set to careless and open fire, the AI will actually spot targets, when using a loiter waypoint, and engage. The removal of the radar means when there is vehicles around the pilot wont shit itself and start to dive bomb it, but vehicles will still be targets without the radar.

Fixed in the current version of the game.

The first issue was already fixed and this ticket should have been closed. I'll close this ticket and will have a look at the other problem.

@Wulf please check this issue.

@Wulf please recheck tis issue. Description is updated

Applogize. We are aware of the issue.

This is not normal that you have to keep the headlights turned on to see the speed or other information on the dashboard of the vehicle.
And it's working correctly for Prawlers, Vans and MB 4WD that need to have only their motors on and not the headlights to see the speed or other information on the dashboard

Haven't received any valid explanation, but the ticket was closed as "Resolved" despite it being valid and not normal with AI's behavior set to "Aware" and with some vehicles where it works just fine with AI's behavior set to "Aware".

I suspect that you were testing the jets on the ground and of course when the jets are on the ground they will have lights on before and during take off. That is normal behavior even for jets in real life. They do not take off with lights off that would be too dangerous. After they gain altitude they turn the lights off.

So why all the vehicles listed with behavior set to "Aware" had their collision lights turned off while on the ground if you say they should have them turned on for take off?

Thank you for the test mission, we will see what can be done.

Hey @Lex , thanks for the fast response.

Some isolated testing has been performed, to different but possibly related results. A frame drop by 15 with nothing much going on could cause a drop to 0 with 60+ players and a full AO.

This ticket is a duplicate of the problem.

Additional feedback from the primary Zeus:

Im having the same issues (June 2018). I have tried solving the issue by doing the following:

I've recently noticed that if you enter splendid camera and move the camera close to the falling vehicle, you can hear a continuous driving sound effect which is odd and may have a link to the source of the bug.

This person describes exactly the same issues I'm having with these achievements. I have tried the following:

I have the same issue with the same Headset, tried Troubleshoot, still no sound at all

Is this anything I can temporarily fix on my own server or will I have to wait for a public update?

I can confirm such behaveour of the game. The issue is very severe as it affects every player on our server. The symptoms are same as described: fps on client machines degrades to low values at some random moment without any particular reason. diag_captureSlowFrame gives the following picture:

still no one care about this problem?

well i listed the classes, easer for the devs, maybe it will be fixed for encore.

@Wulf please close this ticket
Info about reloading start spam in squad chat

Can we get this fixed? it is absolutely insane that no one has fixed this issue for smoke grenades. They bounce like 200-500 meters.

any progress? 🙃

It's because of Windows Activator, you have to change it and that's all

I have tested A3 without any mods or addons enabled and the above mentioned bugs ceased to exist - everything seems to work like its supposed to be then. After that, I selectively enabled all of the disabled mods/addons again until these bugs reappeared again. By this way, I could finally pinpoint the troublemaker: it's the C2 - Command & Control AI mod! I could reproduce the disappearance and reappearance of the above mentioned bugs by disabling and re-enabling the C2 mod!
