Recommended Posts

Updated the weapons list in first post.

For those using Dingo-J utility, replace the the ChangeText.txt with this. (N.B. Must be No CR/LF at the end of this list)

*** REMOVED ***

See my latest ChangeText.txt

ChangeText.txt updated later in this thread.

Beerkan,

I noticed this is a few less lines than the previous one. So this is the complete list, correct? I might have accidently duplicated an entry (that won't hurt anything - just wasted space).

Hey Dingo-J, thx so much for that mate. I did it and converted successfully. But when i upload the file to my server, when i click on my servers name it wont go to the create game screen. It just keeps like its loading.

That is just when i upload the converted missions to the server. When i remove then its back to normal.

Can someone help?

Thx guys.

If you click doesn't a error message popup ?

Can you check if you have a log file on %appdata%\Local\Arma 3 .. . Possibly arma3.rpt ?

Hey fabio, whats up mate? I got this from the logs you wanted:

This is the end of the log.

=======================

PhysX3 SDK Init started ...

PhysX3 SDK Init ended.

2013/06/26, 22:23:44 Unsupported language English in stringtable

ErrorMessage: Data file too short 'MPMissions\cti_30_teetimeswarfare_0636.Stratis(BETA).pbo'. Expected 29212708 B, got 138086 B

I cant get past this screen:

3b4a87262521868.jpg

Just to complement this, when i remove the converted alpha-beta mission (cti_30_teetimeswarfare_0636.Stratis(BETA)) of the MPmission folder, when i try to run other missions, this is the log i get below and i can play it.

=======================

PhysX3 SDK Init started ...

I really want to play with Teetime warfare mission, but still cant.

Thx, guys.

Thanks to all concerned for this - really helps. If I'm using a mission I created in the editor (and dingo-j's app fixed) and revert to a save I get error messages saying "cannot play/edit this mission - it is dependent on deleted content a3_air_f_ka60, a3_soft_f_hunter, etc..." Any ideas?

Thanks again guys

Not ignoring anyone. Sorry guys my mom just passed away.

It was Beerkan that got me onto this idea though, and really all the thanks goes to him. :) Hopefully we all get our missions converted and can concentrate on all the good stuff Beta has to offer!!

Very sorry to hear that friend. Forget the game for a while, and concentrate on your family. That's what matters.

I am having the same issue here, with all missions that I tried to convert.

I tried the original ChangeText.txt and the Beerkan post #26.

Can anyone help me?

Hey @caico1983, here is what i was doing wrong.

When you are getting the missions in your computer, you are probably getting from ...Arma3 Alpha folder.

But the beta missions are in ...Arma3 folder only. You get it from there, then convert it and try it.

Let us know.

Oliver,

I think I don´t get it.

The missions that I am trying to convert are at c:\steam\steamapps\common\arma 3\MPmissions. Then, I convert it and it creates a 'missions name(BETA)' inside the same folder.

But when I start the game, click on play - multiplayer - new and ok to start my server, before I can select the mission I have that error and my game close. If I delete the created mission, my game starts a server without any issue.

Are you trying to convert a .pbo file!!?

See my first post in this very thread.

(I should also add that obviously this will NOT work for any mission file that is in .pbo format. You will need to extract the mission files first using a utility like ExtractPboGui. Get it here ExtractPboGui2.rar)

If you ARE converting a de-pbo'd file, then once you've converted 'mission.sqm' rename it to 'mission.copy.sqm' and then rename 'mission(BETA).sqm' file to 'mission.sqm'

Now load your mission.

Thank you Beerkan,

I think that was the problem. I just read the beginning of the first post and jumped to the post #14 at second page.

I am at work, I will try it right when I arrive home.

Here is another solution to convert the classnames. With it, you can change every script/text file within the mission folder automatically.

In order to help both Rochount and Dingo-J with their conversion utilities I've created a permanent link to the latest ChangeText.txt file.

You can download the latest ChangeText.txt here.
