It's related to the inability to pickup clothes and vests from crates.
Clients don't stream what they take from crates when it comes to clothes and vests (the same applies to the ground if you are not the host).

Actally the only way to fix it while waiting for an official fix is to use a virtual ammobox script (there should be some on armaholic.com)

Tested on HD7970 with latest AMD beta drivers (13.1 i think)

@Cayman
since you did confirm Egosa-U's explaination, you have my upvote ;)

@OP
If it's like Egosa-U said, then i'd upvote this !

That's the "trick" that allows the player to notice he is wounded, being unable to "feel" it like in real life.
I'd leave it like it is honestly

Just use Tactical Pace or whatever it's called. It's there for a reason..

Not a bug, just key settings overlapping between Helicopter controls and View controls!

Check your keymap

If you don't change the class name you can't even load the mission.
He sais aftter 10 mins (i assume of playing) so i guess the server is able to run the mission

Then it's a server-side problem.

I (as well as many others) can play just fine for hours in MP and i have a Thomson router, well known for it's crappy stability :P

EDIT: Didn't see your second comment. Yes actually it can easily be (refer to what i wrote above) for multiple reason, the main one being there are no dedicated servers, yet.

EDIT2: Also, ArmA drops your server-link as soon as you have even the smallest connectin drop (even for like half a second), that may be the issue. Your connection drops for an instant but in the time you do the ping test it has recovered.

It can be either your connection or server hoster one.

What SmallBlackSheep said.

Can't you just change the "old" ID of your friends to the new ones in your admins list ?

FarCry doesn't have to keep into account all the ballistic calculations and the huge map dimensions (just to say the main 2) that stress enough already our computres.. that's the difference that allows it to use this feature and that would (may) cause A3 to become unplayable

Would be a huge fps impact if it was rendered instead of being a static picture :-\

I think you can already do that.
In the VIEW commands option menu you can assign keys / keycombos to lean left and/or right like if you had a TrackIR (not sure if it's what you need, i didn't try it)

@Grezvany13
That's a bug with people ;)

The LCTRL key is bound to the view modifiers to simulate TrackIR (LCTRL+E / LCTRL+Q and so on).
Unbind that and you don't have the ""bug"" anymore ...

Plenty if issues opened about this.
Use the search function and upvote the older one.

/downvoting

Normal Alpha didn't have any additional update after my last test on it.
Also, since Alpha updates go first on DEV branch, that issue is not present hence it wont be there in the upcoming update neither, thus downvoted the issue

Works here with the latest DEV build

Try adding -nobenchmark to your launch parameters

Yes, DEV build is like a beta of the Alpha (yup, it's weird :P ).
The Alpha default branch update should go online anytime this week if BIS internal QA group doesn't find any more show stoppers (gamebreaking bugs)

Fixed in latest DEV build.

As prospekt pointed out, it's probably because those servers are using a DEV build.
Easy way to fix it is to add DEV build to your STEAM beta programs

It's not a bug, it's an on-purpose name modification (also declared here http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?149636-Development-branch-changelog )

Just replace the old A3_Soft_F_Galkin to O_Ifrit_F in your mission.sqm file and you're good to go.

After a bit your soldier will stop sprinting (first stage) then will later stop jogging (second stage) and will force you to slow walk until you recover some stamina.

It works and, as you said, it's influenced by the load.

Agreed to "E".

@esfumato
The LCTRL issue isn't an issue.
LCTRL is a "modifier" in the "View Options".
Unbind it from there and you're good.

If i could downvote this issue 100000000 times i would ...

• an OFP/ArmA/ArmA2/VBS/ArmA3 harcore fan

Yeah i remember quite well the old BF2:PR days :)
But i think it wasn't really the "type of VOIP" but more likely the "matureness" of players playing it (PR wasn't like a run and shoot thing, so players where somehow naturally filtered out).

When it comes to ArmA, i mainly play ACE along with ACRE and i think that's why there are not so many players using the in-game VOIP system due to server hosters (myself included) offering public access to theire own TS servers to use ACRE.

Maybe something halfway between ACRE and BF2:PR radio systems may work ?

I am (was) a PR player in BF2 :P

So basically the suggestion is to add some background noise such as distortion effects to better simulate radios ?

Not bad.
I upvote this and hopefully wouldn't be a pain to code for devs :S

I'm quite sure it's in the planned features already.

/upvoting anyways just in case it isn't !!

The AI can actually snipe you from 400 meters with LMGs too, so they just need a whole rework !!!

/upvoted

It currently doesn't save difficulty settings neither

Confirmed for HD7950 also in daylight (rare but happens) and also confirmed the NVG fixes the problem or, if you don't have NVG, alt-tab and then use the taskmanager to switch back in the game (right click > show in front)

Tested in latest DEV build (0.53.103754) and it has been fixed (tower now enterable, both main floor and control tower internal room)

confirmed

I did read dxdiag, rpt file and dump file that you did attach already.

The dxdiag is showing your vga as Intel HD Graphics 3000 (which i believe is the motherboard chipset ?) while rpt file shows the nVidia GT555M as you pointed out.

Sounds like a driver issue ?
Both dxdiag and rpt (or whatever else game log file) shoudl be coherent each other

I see from your dxDiag that you have 8CPUs so i assume you are using the Hyper Threading on your i7.

Try disabling it via BIOS and try again, see if that's the cause (i have it disabled because it mainly causes problems with mostly every game)

EDIT: Found the cause!

"Card name: Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000"
"DDI Version: 10.1"

You're using an integrated vga chipset that doesn't support DX11, but only 10.1

Check game files integrity via STEAM and/or reinstall/repair DirectX

@Kol9yN
Do you know why that works in Airsoft and why it wouldn't in real life ? ;)

1. Airsoft guns have a limited range, especially when shooting from a lower position. being above a tree gives you the gun range advantage

2. Airsoft guns aren't immediately pin-pointable because of the sound, while a gun shot can

3. Tree's foliage stops BBs, won't stop bullets

and a lot more reasons to go..

Want a powerfull argument?
Here it is:

too much effort for DEVS since they would have to work on animations and a lot of different variables for when you are on the tree.. also the trees in A3 don't really look like the kind you can climb with barehands and fully geared.

Well the easiest way to fix it would be like ACE did in ArmA2: L as switch on/off and SHIFT+L as cycle between laser and flashlight

A simple upper/lower/left/right/ rail attachment slots and scope/muzzle slots would be more than enough, instead of the currect system that only has scope/side/muzzle

/upvote for the love to the details !!!

Happens with all seats in both MH-9 and KA60.
Seems to be random but happens more often with MH9 with people "riding in back"

You can't use countermeasure while holding LCTRL because LCTRL+G cycles trought the different release modes for countermeasure, feature that is not yet implemented.
The same goes for example when you press LCTRL+E / LCTRL+Q that leans the camera right and left, LCTRL+MOUSE AXIS moves the head like in a 6DOF TrackIR and so on... a correct controls configuration will solve everything

Controls are under "options" menu that is named with such a label for a reason: IT IS OPTIONAL TO USE IT / USE IT BY DEFAULT.

If you don't like the controls layout just get in there and change it like everyone else does in every other game.

@ShotgunSheamuS
+1 (pointing once again to ACE suppression effect!!)
Maybe this time he'll get the point..

@Bashka

What do Army soldiers when under sniper fire ?

• Lay down some heavy suppressive fire while shooting to the approximate location of the sniper
• Move to a safer position (eventually get the wounded guys in cover too)
• Locate the sniper
• Kill the sniper

So that's exactly what happens... that said, by standing on your point, you are saying that ARCADE games are MORE REALISTIC than ARMA. ;)

@ShotgunSheamuS

+1
People go crazy when they read COD, BF3, CS as reference to something that may actually work way better in A3 than in those games !!

The suppression effect like it was described in the original post, was just refered to "visuals" while BF3 (that probably lead to mistakes for others) was also on weapons (you did loose accuracy on the weapon with enhanced bullet spread), hence the hate for it !!

Upvoted as far as the suppression effect is only visual and does in no way affect weapons like it does in BF3 !

Those in game are not UBA but CCUBA (CC stands for Closed Circuit) (they are rebreathers, not oxygen / trimix bottles).
IRL you have up to 10 times the normal "underwater time" than a common open circuit (UBA) so i highly doubt you would run out of "air" with one of those for a mission

Good find, just tried and that's exactly the way to reproduce it !!

Didn't happen in 2 days!

Was there any server-side fix or maybe just a temporary client-side (me) problem ? (just to know for the next time if it will ever happen again :) )

That's wierd :-\
Welcome in the club then ^^

Also just happened with upvote !

EDIT:
The 000148 in the error message is the ISSUE ID NUMBER, which ofcourse changes with every different issue you reproduce this error with

/upvoted to don't make this poor soldier sacrifice useless !!!!

isn't that like when all players press "ok" (they then become ready/green names) the mission starts ?

@Keragon
+1

But unfortunately people NEVER read entirely the issue reports and/or suggestions >.>

I assume you didn't shoot your own teammate while attempting to open his backpack by accidentaly pressing LMB insteal od MMB or SPACEBAR (old A2 habits persist).

This is just one of thousands of suitable examples..

"I just have trouble justifying it here because this is based on a battlefield where everyone is always ready to shoot"

Not true.. there are plenty of "mil-sim" clans/communities out there that also simulate live firing range drills and such so this feature would find its place.
The strenght of arma series is in the flexibility and ability to simulate potentially everything (with sometimes the right scripting knowledge).

But yeah i get your point too

@Keragon
You don't need to be a firearms expert to know that a weapon in SAFE mode wont shoot............

@Keragon
Your point is fair enough, but as it has been suggested in previous comments, the SAFE mode shouldn't be put in the firemodes cycle (F) but with a dedicated "modifier" (LSHIFT+F for example).
This would prevent an accidental safe mode engagement while cycling trough firemodes and would still retain its function

A simple SHIFT+F as safety on/off would do the trick !

/upvoted

you can already have NVGs in the inventory or in the backpack.

upvoting for the move while shooting and reloading stuff

/upvoted

Would love to be able to do that, maybe via some key to press so you don't always push stuffs around if you don't want to.. ?

Wow that's a hard one to repro O.O
Gonna employee all my clan mates in the testing :D

Also, the name is "Mad" Dog, right ? :P
(joking ;) )

They actually DO listen to community's wishes about features.
That said, it's not granted that every feature request will be implemented but you can be sure as hell that BIS read these requests and evaluate them.

@ShotgunSheamuS
+1
Also, as a little (and last) sidenote to this, BIS has ASSIGNED 2 feature requests for better solution on rendering far away terrain and for rendering concealed units to replace the "sinking in the ground" system.

@All
Let's end this OT now, since wont be helpfull in any way :)

@Postman2112
Go hide your face under a rock after the sentence
"if they don't add it then their professionalism in design is questionable to say the least!"

BIS is like the most serious and professional company out there and most likely the only one that really listens to community's opinions.

/OT

Yes but only if it's somekind of "combat roll" or small jump, no bunny hopping here !
Leave that shit on camperfield, call of campers and camperstrke !!

Agreed and downvoted.

User made content (in this case script) related issues can't be fixed by arma 3, but from theire own developers

Just use the mod as you are doing right now ?
No ?

Agreed, you have to "jerk" the camera (doesn't matter if you are in 1st or 3rd person view) up and down until you get the sound of your soldier catching a breath

the shot would be way less than a meter with a common gun and you there should be the risk for the gun to literally blow up in the attmpt to fire it.

@sgthalo
I'm not sure but i think you can pack uniforms in a backpack already (worth a try)

@OP
Agreed, would need a suppressor attachment and be able to fire even without a wetsuit

It's related to the postprocess filter in the graphical options.
If you disable it (and probably in lowest setting too) you don't get the blurry effect

Confirmed what Chortles said.
This issue can be considered solved.

@InstaGoat
Vehicles are not ok on inclines... a Iveco Lince (for example, quite close to the hunter in the game) it's a 4.6 tons vehicle and still can climb quite steep slopes at 15Km/h with a full load.. the hunter's engine stalls on even the lowest slope at max speed of 5Km/h

Well that would be up to the user.. if i place 3 bombs in 3 different places i'm supposed to remember that detonator #1 is for the bomb #1 placed in the position X and so on..

Shouldn't be hard to model and "attach" the action

/upvoted

Would be great to have some feedback from managers/moderators/developers about this idea :)

That was a heck of a report !
Wish they'll do that !! :D

As far as i know current smoke grenades are oil-solution based so i guess that detonating one underwater would result in somekind of white (or whatever color it is) liquid stuff floating up to the surface

Not having this issue !

Did you experience this in a MP server ? If so, do you remember what mission was ?
Many missions (like thos i'm making for my clan myself) contain a "garbage" script that clears up weapons left around in the map to prevent lag issues and it could just be related to a bad config of the script :)

@Wi7dBill
there's a purposely created underwater gun in real life as well as in the game

You can already hit and kill fishes :P

Kinda feel (both RCO and ARCO) like a 4x scope to me.
I do agree with the typo comment from sairus002

Not happening to me.
Make sure your key bindings are not overlapping somewhere

I read about the same issue also for RCO sight but i'm not experiencing this nor the other one, after 25 hours of testing both SP and MP.

Maybe is some kind of graphical glitch that's related to the HW?

I'm running a Sapphire HD7950.

Do you have a SLI/Crossfire configuration ? maybe that's the problem as per other graphical glitches /artifacts that other users reported

Temporary workaround: do your scripting on a notepad then copy paste it :D

Not sure if i would be using it (too used to the old habit i guess :P) but i see that it may be very usefull for others.

/Upvoted

That's already posible in mission creationg phase(editor).
Custom made missions involve scripting knowledge to implement such "advanced" features

That's because the eject function for helicopters is disabled right now, due to the lack of parachutes in the game.

It will be possible to do it as soon as they "unlock" this feature

@Jukk
Isn't that trought the "Get Out" action ?
If so that's not really an eject :P
