ArmA3Sync - launcher and addons synchronization software for ArmA 3

Recommended Posts

Once you have built the repository with 10 connections, user have to select the number of connections he wants to use from repository download panel -> Advanced configuration button.

From user side best download performances are not always achieved with max number of connections.

To say it short, user that already reach his max bandwidth with 1 single connection should leave it like this.

getting this error

Hey there, wondering if anyone can help me, im looking to create and host a repo for my arma 3 server, how do i go about this?

 

i dont have a dedi box that i can access, the only thing i do have is webhost with domain and ftp logins or my arma 3 server, that i can also ftp into, really sorry i have searched for about 3 hours and can not find any info at all 

 

thanks!

What about this? http://www.sonsofexiled.fr/wiki/index.php/ArmA3Sync_Wiki_English#Use_as_a_server_administrator

Build the repository on your PC following the above link then use the Upload command of ArmA3Sync. You can't use autoconfig url as you don't have anonymous access to the FTP.

i was able to get it working through HTTP which has anonymous access, 1 thing i need to upload 2.7 GB and it seems to just freeze after a while, has it actually froze? or will it just take time??

I have two feature requests for ArmA3Sync,

 

1. Incorporate the changes introduced via the new Battleye service implementation into the launcher options area (and enable BE by default), info here.

2. When adding an online server, allow us to choose a mod group we created rather than just mod repositories.

could you please add -malloc=system since latest patches the memory allocators distributed by BI seem always to be broken.

 

and please do NOT consider enable BE by default, Arma 3 has really very poor performance with new BE enabled!

Be sure that the FTP infos are correct from Upload options panel.

Try running ArmA3Sync-DEBUG.exe and upload the repository.

What's the difference between living Malloc empty and setting -malloc=system? For me it is the same.

Battleye has always been a useless PoS with ArmA.

leave -malloc= empty will load default memory allocator which is the broken BI one "tbb4malloc_bi.dll".

 

read : https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Custom_Memory_Allocator

 

-malloc=system can be used to force using Windows allocator even when allocator dlls are present .

 

I have to delete the dll's to get windows own allocator to run.

using memory allocator patch 1.50 = many crashes

using windows own allocator it crashes very rarely.

 

see: https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/184763-arma-3-crash-error-0xc0000005-status-access-violation/

and similar posts.

 

from BI wiki:

note: Windows 7 allocator seems to be quite good, and it may therefore make sense for some users to delete all custom allocators on Windows 7 or newer.

 

since patch 1.46 arma 3 is very unstable and crashes way to often due it's own allocators.

*shrugs* That's not my experience. I've not had a single crash in 1.50

I've had numerous crashes too, memory errors because of allocator. I've tried all of them in the DLL folder, they all have issues of some kind. Poor performance, using too much memory compared to other allocators etc.

 

The beta/dev branch allocator that is floating around here somewhere fixes most of the crashes but not all. Arma 3 still crashes, usually within an hour.

Maybe not in MP but I don't play MP, just don't like the new "systems" like fatigue and sway. Gamey crap. Why not have us punch 4 random characters within a second for the gun to fire?

Forget I said that, BIS will probably take it seriously and implement it.

I guess I'm just lucky then. :)

 

I have 16GB of RAM, I wonder if the fact I have more RAM than the game could possibly need mean I'm less vulnerable to allocator problems?

 

All the same, I'll try the system allocator maquez mentions a couple of posts up.

Back on topic :),

 

Major Shepard, I'm having trouble with ArmA3 sync on a new install of Windows 10. It's on a brand new laptop and I've verified that the settings are the same as a working example on another machine.

 

When I click launch game, the game doesn't actually start. There's a arma 3 in task manager, but the game doesn't start.

The game starts fine from its own exe or from the BIS launcher.

Hi,

 

last time we used the feature "Upload modset" was past July.

We are trying now to use it again but we got a pop up error sayng "failed to upload events informations, please check upload option or permissioni settings on server".

If we connect using an ftp client and the same credentials all goes ok, Using FTP we can only change permission to the events file because the ftp user is the owner.

Hey!

 

So I have a problem that when I just open my Arma3Sync, I am unable to select ANYTHING. All I can do is move the program on the screen and close it. That's it. I am unable to click on any of the tabs or check boxes.

 

Can someone help me with that?
