A.C.R.E - Advanced Combat Radio Environment - 1.1 Stable - Release Thread

[jaynus 10]

@GoldenNugget - may require some TS3/windows configuration changes to make sure to use 5.1

@=WBG=ati - Just like *every* *single* *time* BI updates - it takes a minute for a JayArmA2Lib version to get pushed.

I just pushed it about 45 seconds ago.

jayarma2lib just got a flash update about a minute ago.

Restart your arma2 and/or install the new jayarma2lib (silent update). You should get the auto-update, should fix your problems.

[fruity_rudy 16]

you and your updater..works fine now..

I think you can imagine how it feels as pmc without having a radio :)..

thx a lot for the fix

cheers lad

How do you replace antennas?

this addmagazine "something" ?

[niall0 10]

YOur latest update breaks Arma!!!!!!! Wont let me boot Arma at all with it installed, but then when i uninstall it it boots fine.

Same say for the server

It's because the JayArmA2Lib file included in the installer package isn't up to date. Try here:

http://dev-heaven.net/projects/jayarma2lib/files

Edit: Infact, it's just certain installer links that are out of date. Use the devheaven link, its up to date. http://dev-heaven.net/attachments/download/9341/ACRE_V1.1.0.234.exe

How to change PRC-343 back to PRC-148? Is this generally possible?

[jaynus 10]

Delete ItemRadio and addWeapon "ACRE_PRC148"; instead.

We had too many errors and bugs in your early versions to use it, it wasnt stable enought. Yesterday, we tried ACRE again and where happy!

Huge improvements. We love it and have allways found it as a necessary addon :) Only a few errors where people suddently lost connection with teamspeak, but a quick restart of ts did the job. Once my mate couldnt hear the groupleader but the groupleader could hear him fine even though we where right next to each other :D But somehow after 5 mins he could hear him again.. Dont know what caused any of it, but I felt like I needed to report this :)

[mr.g-c 6]

Congrats on release!

Good Job! ;-)

There are still some inherent TS3 issues with random muting. They have been working on them for a while now. We have experienced this sort of muting issue out of game just talking in channel where one person can not hear the other but everyone else can. TS3 restart almost always fixes it.

How do you replace antennas?

this addmagazine "something" ?

Antennas can not be switched out at the moment.

The only radio with multiple antenna types right now is the 148.

The VHF version is the default, and you can get the one that models the UHF antenna by adding ACRE_PRC148_UHF

[sas troop 0]

Delete ItemRadio and addWeapon "ACRE_PRC148"; instead.

Well, that may work, but our group uses 148 always, even in missions not designed by us. Would it be "legal" to manually change it inside config. If yes, where to search for ItemRadio replacement?

Use this addon on your server, problem solved ;)

I know there are communities out there using this mod without major difficulties and I really wish I knew what the secret was.

We're currently running this mod at MAG and more people experience at least TS3 1 crash per game we play than don't (I myself usually experience several) and there always seems to be someone who just cannot get it to work on that day (usually a different person each time).

If there's any diagnostic files you'd like to help you help us just ask and i'll see how many I can gather.

We were really hoping 1.1 would be a deus ex machina :(.

[jaynus 10]

Every time TS3 crashes/hangs - on your win7/vista people do the following:

1. Have them open task manager

2. right click the ts3 process, and click dump process to file

3. upload it somewhere and send it to me

[decap 10]

Our group recently updated to the new version of ACRE. Before the ACRE worked great but now our group of 6 has their TS3 crash at least once a mission. When it crashes the last work that was said repeats non stop at a fast pace and Operation Arrowhead stalls in and out.

Is there any fix for this out there?

[Don Camillo 10]

Thanks for the new API commands. You made my life much easier :)

My Purchasemenue adoption in Warfare now is much smoother and futursave.

We're playing our 17th Fightnight with 1.08 and a new ACRE Version.

Another Song in the Bank :)

3 things made that possible:

- Jay's 1.08 comaptibility push (and support)

- the "acre_api_fnc_getCurrentRadioList" API command

- and not to forget Bennys new gearConfig system.

... just finished the first Test, and glad to say:

:yay:

Thanks to the Team

Just FYI.

I dont know why, installed it two times now, but after PMC the file DSound.dll, which belongs to Acre, crashes the game during launch. Removing the file or uninstalling acre makes the game work fine again. Reinstalling Acre (1.1.0.234) didnt help, same issue.

Jaynus...

Here is a dump file from TS3 after it locked up on one of our members pc...it was the pulsing audio bug

TS3 DMP

Hope this helps...

Or do you want this added to a DEV heaven bug ?

Its more than likely the unresolvable issue we are having with TS3 at the moment, as the last few crashes 1.1 and just before 1.1 were mainly this. Let us look at the dump before a ticket is made.

Make sure you are running the latest version of JayArmA2Lib. It should ask you to update if you aren't, but double check.

Wich error you got? the dsound.dll should stay in your ArmA root or your ACRE wont work.
