major_shepard 82 Posted December 11, 2014 Have you built the repository server side? If no you should have an error message saying "/.a3s/sync" or "/.a3s/serverInfo" missing which is normal. If yes, copy paste the url you have set for you repro from ArmA3Sync to your web brower and check if you can connect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyprus 16 Posted December 15, 2014 How do I force Arma3Sync to use my .Arma3Profile and Arma3.cfg? If I add "-profiles=e:\My Stuff\Documents\Arma 3\Arma 3 Server Stuff" (location of my arma profile) in the addition parameters section the profile doesn't load. The picture on the wiki also doesn't really help http://www.sonsofexiled.fr/wiki/images/arma3sync/arma3sync_start_arma3server.png Why would there be two -config parameters? How would the game know which one is which? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I add "-profiles=e:\My Stuff\Documents\Arma 3\Arma 3 Server Stuff" (location of my arma profile) in the addition parameters section the profile doesn't load.

How would the game know which one is which? The first one is use for server bandwith configuration https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/basic.cfg it is optional, the second one is the normal config file https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Dedicated_Server#Example_Files.

cyprus 16 Posted December 15, 2014 Well if I wanted to have all 3 configs, what is the proper order? I know you said order must be respected, but it isn't explained what the proper order is supposed to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonpas 291 Posted December 15, 2014 Found a bug in 1.4 Beta 1 with the new Malloc parameter. If you tick it and select a malloc, then leave the malloc selected but untick the option, the parameter stays there. If you select <empty> malloc though it unticks itself and all is good.

ikeaster 10 Posted December 19, 2014 I can't seem to update my repository correctly. If I want to update, I have to delete everything from the FTP and re-upload everything again. I think it is because I don't have a shared ftp folder. Can anyone help me, or tell me what I'm doing wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
major_shepard 82 Posted December 19, 2014 I guess your FTP user is missing delete/overwrite permissions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ikeaster 10 Posted December 19, 2014 No that isn't the problem. Whenever I put a new mod in my folder and then rebuild the repository, what do I do then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
major_shepard 82 Posted December 20, 2014 Depends on if your are building the repository inside the FTP shared folder or locally. In the second case you must upload the repository to the host machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BaconAniimal 10 Posted December 21, 2014 I have a lot of addons (around 50 of them and I have renamed their folder names to make it clearer to me what they are if that changes anything?) and I'm just trying to launch the game to the main menu so I can play the campaign and some scenarios, so which addons I have installed doesn't really matter. But the problem I'm running into is when I click start game, ArmA3Sync just minimises and ArmA 3 doesn't actually launch. Any help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
major_shepard 82 Posted December 21, 2014 Try running the game without addon. If ArmA 3 still crashes then check the game files from stream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jonpas 291 Posted December 23, 2014 Since the latest update, when I launch Arma 3, ArmA3Sync freezes, there is no "not responding" or anything, it just doesn't work. Having RPT Viewer open you can also see it stops working as it should, can't select a file and it stops reading the file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snakeyes 10 Posted December 23, 2014 Since the latest update, when I launch Arma 3, ArmA3Sync freezes, there is no "not responding" or anything, it just doesn't work. Having RPT Viewer open you can also see it stops working as it should, can't select a file and it stops reading the file. I'm experiencing the same problems with the latest version of ArmA3Sync. I tried launching with compatibility mode, reinstalling java, etc., but it still freezes. Twice I have had to do a hard reboot to clear it. ArmA3Sync was flickering on my display. I also noticed that it does not minimize to the task bar after the game launches. I do have that selected in the preferences. Any chance of downloading the previous version somewhere? It was rock solid for me. Brilliant application by the way! I run all my mod variations now with a few simple clicks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonpas 291 Posted December 23, 2014 Happening with everyone I've talked to so far, since the latest update it simply freezes as soon as you press "Start Game". Hopefully we can get a hotfix, this is kinda unbearable (especially when testing a mod and have a nice custom launch params set up). :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snakeyes 10 Posted December 24, 2014 Next time you should try a Windows full re-installation first ;) I'll try that in the future. The app notified me that the update was available so I accepted and updated the last version. BTW, I found the installer for Version 1.3 Update 1 and reinstalled it. It looks like everything is sorted now so I'll download the latest version and do the full reinstall. Thank you for the quick fix and the amazing app. :) ---------- Post added at 04:37 ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 ---------- Confirmed. New version works good.
