3rd person

[reaply 10]

I have searched for hours to no avail.

I am hosting a dedicated server. I want to disable third person to players cannot use it.

I have tried editing the server config file:

// MISSIONS CYCLE (see below)
class Missions
{
         class Mission1
        {
             template="tdm24_agia-marina-persistent-loot.stratis";
             difficulty="veteran";
         };
};

I have tried editing the Arma3.cfg file

What am I doing wrong?

[RushHour 11]

In the last code only 1 of 3 "3rdPersonView=" is set to 0.

Not sure if that helps though.

Thanks for the reply.

I've tried it before, but it didn't work.

Friendly bump.

Do a search on the server for .Arma3Profile files and then set each of them, one at a time to have 3rd off on ALL difficulty's untill you find the .Arma3Profile that your server is using.

Thanks for the reply mate.

I only have one profile under the directory:

ARMA3\A3Master\Users\reaply

And that's

reaply.arma3profile

And it has no such text for what you mentioned. All I have is:

version=1;
blood=1;
singleVoice=0;
gamma=1;
brightness=1;
maxSamplesPlayed=96;
sceneComplexity=1000000;
shadowZDistance=100;
viewDistance=3800;
preferredObjectViewDistance=3200;
terrainGrid=3.125;
volumeCD=10;
volumeFX=10;
volumeSpeech=10;
volumeVoN=10;
vonRecThreshold=0.029999999;

[BL1P 35]

Add the text to it see if that helps.

Add it below the stuff already in it.

What sort of access do you have to the server ?

I have physical access.

And I don't know what to put into the text file.

It will set every difficulty to be the same so its easy to tell if the server is reading it.

copy paste that bellow what you have and test, to see if the server is reading that file for difficulty settings.

If it isnt then its reading another file.
