Any time! Thanks for fixing this issue, and for the amazing game.

Yup, no problem! ^_^

Okay, here's my idea, since it doesn't take much for me to reproduce this (even with mods.) Put down a mechanized rifle squad at the south end of the AAC airfield on Altis, and give it a waypoint for the opposite end of the runway. Have some enemy unit (that is incapable of destroying the APC) to get the units to disembark. Then, give a gunship a waypoint to destroy the APC. If the infantry is dismounted and the APC is destroyed instantly, the new actual should start repeatedly ordering units to board the APC. (Tested just now.)

I'll give it a try, but my game has been heavily modded and I'm not too experienced with it. Nevertheless, I will try to remove the mods and see if I can reproduce it again. (This may have been fixed in an update, I'm not sure.)

Again, I'm not entirely sure which dxdiag file to upload because there are many. I picked the one that seemed most relevant, but it is understandably difficult to do so judging only by the file name...

:\

Who downvoted this...?

I'll give it a try sometime today, if I remember.

I'm glad you guys found a solution, and I've already beat the first campaign episode, but we should probably try to find a more reliable fix for laptop users as well. The only way I was able to get past was probably luck-oriented.

Thanks OminousPenguin, I'm sure this is helpful and time-saving to the developers. I'm wondering if the coding is the problem, mainly because it doesn't seem likely for Arma 3's development team.

Yeah... For me it ended up working up eventually, but there was a lot of saving, exiting, and loading involved. I don't know exactly how I did it, but I would save, exit, and re-enter whenever it seemed like something was supposed to be happening.

To be sure, do it on the title screen, punkwar.

copy that, cspradin. I got it myself after a lot of saving, exiting, and loading, but I eventually managed to load myself into the Tipping Point briefing.

Thanks again OminousPenguin for your help, you seem pretty devoted to helping us out and I sincerely appreciate it!

Pressing the spacebar with he right timing does indeed help. Thank you OminousPenguin.

Tested the spacebar a bit more. Turns out that no progress can be made, all it does is make the game playable again. No briefing or any other scripted event can take place, all you can do is walk around Maxwell.

Unfortunately, running the mission at lower graphics is unfeasible for me because I'm already running Arma 3 at about its lowest graphics. I have no idea what might be causing this problem.

No, it does this with me too. I wish I had seen this before I reported the issue as well.

http://www.mediafire.com/download/9gdvacamei6i1h8/Arma+3.zip

Note that I had no idea which DxDiag file out of about 12 that I found was the one that was to be uploaded. If it's not the right one, I'll try uploading another file.

No sir, it's all clear. Thank YOU.

https://www.mediafire.com/?vgv8mu2d6y73wb2

That was all I could find. I don't have an mdmp file, as far as I can tell.

https://www.mediafire.com/?l134367loqz8uxa

I don't know what file you're talking about. Here are all of the crash dump files on my computer. I'm not tech-savvy, so some help in actually locating the desired files would be appreciated, if that's possible.

http://www.mediafire.com/download/6170aqlqqg4i16a/Arma+3+crash+report.zip

I apologize for the extremely late presentation of the link. The issue persists through the update. This might not be the right file; if it isn't, please tell me so I can upload the other one

This is for low-quality computers only. This shouldn't happen on any decent systems.

There it is. Good luck, and thank you guys for this amazing game!

Is it that much of a problem to add some shotguns? Why not just ask a mod maker if they can go off of their concept and put them in the credits? Or better yet, just take the shotguns straight from a mod, tweak them, and put them in. Besides, not everyone wants to get mods.

Just wanted to point out to everyone hating on this guy for this post that this is past final release and first campaign episode, no shoguns have been added and we've heard no news about the possibility of adding them
