Hi

I have no idea if below will work! But its worth a test

Verify integrity of game files

(Library > properties of arma 3 > local files > verify integrety of game files)

Then open Arma 3 via steam

Also can you ask a friend you play with to tell you what files that have bad sign?

[blackout2022 10]

Yes prior doing an re installs i have tried doing this also tried after and it seem to be different core files each time saying bad sig. als o made sure all file folders and sub folders were not read only so if changes needed to be made by steam they would go through ..... oh yes i also made sure that arma 3 exe is running with admin privileges and yet none of this has helped

PS. also any help that does work i will post which did so that others with this issue will know what worked .... thanks again

upon further review the most common file causing the issue is wrong signature file for air_f.pbo so if anyone knows what this could be would be most helpfull for and suggestions

[blackout2022 10]

Ok i have got a fix for my issue i had a team mate give me the air_f.pbo and the bisign for it through file transfer replaced the ones i have and it seems to be working fine as of now i will report if there are any other issues but as of now it is good i will although contact steam to see if the files i am getting from them can be replaced so i will not have to get files from other people to make my game work thanks for all the assistance

GREAT!

How strange that you have been getting corrupted file.

Could it be that it did not get deleted from your harddrive upon uninstall?

Anywho i think that you should inform BI also. Or maybe someone in charge will see this thread ;)

Yeah It seems I have the same Errors, but the files seems different. I dont know exactly which files are making the probs though..

So it wont work If i delte the addons folder and let steam redownload it?

[blackout2022 10]

no my only suggestion to resolve this issue is too get a friend or a another player to monitor what error is created and then get copy of the working files from them

best to replace the bisign and the pbo with working copies from whom ever got them

[blackout2022 10]

Ok new note onto this topic after a few hours of playing and everything going fine i tried again today and i am getting the same issue first with new files and then with files that i had already replaced so i am thinking that it isnt with my files and has to be a connection issue although i have a ping of 31 with the server that i am tring to connect to so i cant see it being a lag issue the server ( obviously has signatures turned on and is still making me disconnect and help will be most appreciated please

[blackout2022 10]

Ok i am guessing with the new update that most of my issue has been fixed i think it was a latenacy issue fro the most part would only happen on a close to full server still watching to make sure

new session lost sessions :(

[EDcase 87]

Me too.

I was getting them only recently with the last Stable build and now had a few with the new stable update (Campaign version)

I'm not using any addons but the server I play on is using CBA, MMC_Sandbox and JS_JC_F18
