JohnnieConcrete 1 Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) 1. there is no -nolog, the correct parameter is -nologs2. it's BIKI (community wiki), so it has also user made entries about 'non documented commandline params' 1. Jesus Christ sorry I forgot the S, I had it right in the parameter, and it doesn't work FOR ME 2. Thanks Edited July 25, 2013 by JohnnieConcrete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwarden 1125 Posted July 25, 2013 it should not be available in the stable branch, for obvious reasons, we do want the error logs ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janez 530 Posted July 26, 2013 Not a big difference but it is better with this parameter. Seems more smooth. I remember in Skyrim you can enable all kind of logs and by doing so it is quite a big hit if using normal HD. Atleast for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colonel-ONeill 11 Posted July 26, 2013 with the -nologs parameter my game never finish downloading MP mission files! Stuck in about roughly 50% than crash! ps: since the latest patch my FPS went up from 15-25 to 50 60 :-) nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tremanarch 6 Posted July 27, 2013 i use it via steam parameters but still have logs... using the stable - not the dev built. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwarden 1125 Posted July 27, 2013 as i said, this is available only in DEV branch ... so that's why it does nothing in Stable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xx-LSD-xx 10 Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) in case someone want to test solution to the problem of too spammy RPT file (report log) try use commandline parameter in the DEV branch (sorry not yet in STABLE) -nologs and tell us the results (in other words, we want Your feedback) HOWTO: in the STEAM's game list, select Arma 3 Beta, then right-mouse-button click to raise menu > select Propterties > in General tab (first one already) > select Set Launch Options > type in there (w/o the quotation marks) "-nologs" if you want multiple parameters then e.g. "-nosplash -nologs" more params http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma2:_Startup_Parameters#Available_parameters original thread: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?158939-Game-Freezing-after-Today-s-(9-7-13)-Update&p=2438036#post2438036 p.s. be aware this means none errors saved to RPT file (report log) so in case you want report some bug to Arma 3 feedback tracker http://feedback.arma3.com then please disable this commandline param first The -nologs is working for me and also my server. After the latest update the server HD was working at full speed. I thought something downloading on the server. Same thing was happening on my PC. The game became unplayable after only 5-10 minutes. Looked at my RPT file and HOLY S*#! The file after only a short time was rather large. Normally my RPT file is 30-40 kbs 500 kbs if I'm testing edits I've made to the game..(i.e.. mission files) my RPT was 12000 kbs yes that's right 12mb of repeating errors. The -nologs command line Param is great in the fact it stops the logs but this only a bandaid to stop the bleeding of something that's gone wrong with reporting. It's logging everything in the game as it runs in MP. 90 percent were Error Undefined variable in expression: and the last were LODShape::AddLoadHandler: Handler not present in shape [a3\weapons_f\acc\reticle_arco_f.p3d]. Regardless of the error it's just repeats that error resulting in Massive RPT files and a total CPU performance drain. Can't play ArmA3 with out it or Run my server. Also I can't continue my working on my personal ArmA3 projects. The logging is outa control. I realize it's the DEV beta and the RPT files would normally be larger than usual.

urhideless 10 Posted July 27, 2013 Same FPS problem for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom_48_97 523 Posted July 29, 2013 Same FPS problem for me.Can you be more precise? Your problem comes from "-noLogs" option? If not, there is nothing related to this topic.Otherwise, this option MAY improve performances, that's not guaranteed ATM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aussie battler 94 Posted June 24, 2017 Hi Digging up an old topic here.... My server is spamming 10 error messages every second. Just wondering if this would effect the server writing to the database on an exile server? I'm getting a huge 150mb log: 8:00:05 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:06 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! 8:00:07 Sound: Error: File: jsrs_soundmod_p_environmensounds\sfx\wrack_2.ogg not found !!! Safes & cars roll back 20 minutes before restart. I have contacted the mod owner & he is going to fix the mod. In the meantime I am turning off logs.
