    • After you have filled in all the important information hit Create New Task below the ticket form

      • Linux: /home/<name>/.local/share/bohemiainteractive/arma3/AppDataLocal/Arma 3
      • Mac: /Users/<Name>/Library/Application Support/com.vpltd.Arma3/AppDataLocal
  • Provide as much info as possible
    • Title -> Short description of the issue, you can include some basic info like "only in MP" or the error code
    • Description -> Information about when and how crash happens - is it after certain time, in SP, MP or both, is it random or after performing certain action
    • Reproducibility -> use this to warn us that it might not be easy to come across this issue, you can type the repro rate [e.g. x%, (y/z)] to make sure the value is precise
    • Steps to reproduce -> if you are able to reproduce the crash by performing certain action/s please tell us how
    • Additional Information -> Anything that comes in mind and seems relevant,
      • If you know how to reproduce the crash and you are able to do so, feel free to provide a simple repro mission >
    • Files - like crashdumps, repro mission, DxDiag, pictures, etc., upload them to Additional Info if possible
        • Drag and Drop the zip file into the Additional Information text box
        • Click on the Upload button (little cloud with an up-arrow) and select the prepared crashdump zip in the Additional Information text box
      • Category -> select relevant category (for crashes please select Game Crash)
    • REPRO MISSION
      • If crash is reproducible by performing a specific action in game, we need to know how to reproduce it.
      • Sometimes it can be really hard to get the right conditions for the crash. That's where repro mission comes in handy the most. Simple repro mission with as few units as possible, preferrably in VR (if issue is not related to specific map) is much better then 20 additional repro steps.

@Bohemia Uhm guys this bug reporting descriptions are pretty darn long and comprehensive but also not complete enough. If I click the Little plus "create new document" at the top right, it asks me for a path to store the document. Any advise here?

Anyhow, in Arma 3 Apex Old Man, dogs are attacking/eating me and the doctor near/at my house. Only played for like 20min and got no weapons at this point in the story and C4 feels like a bad choice for home-defense. NPC died :). Check it out.

Cheers.
