I was just about to make a ticket about this issue. Sad to see this bug has been around since 1.72 (over a year now) but hasn't been officially acknowledged yet.
Hey, the dear developers! I know you have a lot to do, you are working to save the world, but please bring back the sounds of the collision of the tank tracks with the stones!
Hey Devs!
Turns out I misinterpreted the meaning of this Steam achievement ("saving yourself" is triggered by helping Miller/CRTG instead of NATO). The text is confusing, especially as another achievement right beforehand it given for taking a side at the end...
Hmm, I think I get it now :
This has been an ongoing problem with the Arma series, and is a known issue. You likely won't get a reply until it's fixed, which will likely only be done upon the release of a new game, or in a major spring cleaning update. In the meantime, though the problem persists in vanilla servers, there are mods to enhance or replace Direct Communication.
Thank you for the report. Could you please provide a video of the issue? I tried recreating this issue(sliding), but I was not able to. I will ask about the hard cap of the speed might have been a deliberate change.
Thank you for the report. We are aware of the issue.
Could you please trigger the crash once more and then send us your Arma report once more?
Thank you for the report. We will have a look at it.
Shall I contact the author of the mod or will BI already do that?
why should BI contact the mod author?
Thank you for the report. The OS is unable to load a file that is required to run the game. A missing DLL may belong to the game, the OS or one of the required components (DirectX e.g.). Possible solutions are:
... a year and a half later, can I get a reply of some kind?
It would also be great if the order of the items in the menu wasn't completely random but in order of distance.
Hi, the bug is still present on version 1.82, please fixed this :D
Even with your explanation there's a problem. The plane demo mission doesn't get a lock on the directional radars when approaching head on into the direction of the sensor array. i can clearly see the half arc on the radar scope when its emitting, but still no lock. It doesn't matter if I approach at 50m, 1km or 3km. The same is true for the blufor jet. Its even erratic on the 360° emitter. At times everything works. The emitters are set to active in the editor.
After talking to the designers the way it works right now is according to them as it works in IRL. For you to be able to lock with a ARM onto some of the AA that have directional radar they must first aim with the radar at your plane.
Thank you for the report. It seems that the problem might not be in the ARMs, but in the active radar of those turrets. We will have a look at this and see what can be done.
Thank you for the report. We will see what can be done.
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.
