jtgibson 18 Posted September 27, 2013 I've been using this since Update 1 and love it, but my only complaint is how slow the glasses get raindrops on them. Would there be a way to externalise a modifier into the .hpp file so we can specify a multiplier for the rate of accumulation? (To answer the "but then you'd have to wipe them more often", in reality, if your goggles are getting covered in water, the normal solution is to take them off instead of continuously wiping them off -- your eyes are more than sufficient at clearing water on their own. This also, of course, has a tactical side effect of reduced eye protection...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lordheart 1 Posted September 27, 2013 I could make use of an external multiplier, my primary concern is multiplayer though, so then it comes down to whether the server needs to determine the raindrop rate in order to ensure that all clients have a level playing field. (a client could for example set his raindrop rate to 4 hours and then not have the rain effect at all and not have to worry about cleaning his goggles). I'm already considering ways of doing this that will work for multiplayer and singleplayer so hopefully I will have an update that addresses this soon. I'd also like to thank foxhound for hosting the mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lordheart 1 Posted December 15, 2013 Started working on this again recently, started making various changes to optimise away things and to just generally improve it. It is mostly detailed in this video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drakenof 11 Posted December 16, 2013 One of my favorite mod for ArmA 3 right now, glad you keep working on it. I was thinking, could you add a little idle animation to the " clean glasses " function ? There's a decent one already in the game, where the soldier sweep his forehead, like to remove sweat. It would fit quite nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lordheart 1 Posted December 16, 2013 I have considered it, I have just never gotten around to actually attempting to get it working. But it is certainly something I will look into for this coming version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightspeed_aust 681 Posted December 16, 2013 Interesting mod and looking forward to further development. But that last vid was terrible! Swivelling head back n forth the whole time! Please consider in next vid :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lordheart 1 Posted December 16, 2013 Yeah, I realise that I was perhaps looking around a bit too much. I'll definitely try to avoid that in any future videos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lordheart 1 Posted January 27, 2014 Are you running any other mods other than the required CBA? I have tested with and without extra mods and it's worked. If you could attempt it again and if it hangs send me the RPT file?

CameronMcDonald 146 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) I also get the mod freezing at the A3 logo, but I'm using a good swag of addons.

lordheart 1 Posted January 27, 2014 Is it only when my mod is enabled that you get freezes? Fixed that error, simply redownload. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted January 27, 2014 OK, I'm still getting a hang with nothing but CBA beta 4 and your mod running. Might be a problem with that version of CBA or dev build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lordheart 1 Posted January 27, 2014 I am running the same just not the dev branch, I haven't noticed any changes in the dev branch that could cause issues though. However, if you could try the following: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43996324/Arma/TEST.zip which removes the gear menu interaction it would at the least help remove that as a possibility.

USTF 10 Posted January 27, 2014 Thanks for the addon, it's really nice to have glasses/goggles features. However, I get a text error (if it is an error), when switching to 1st person view: Aviator Glasses are on, no other mods except CBA working. Any thoughts of how to get rid of the text? It's really annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted January 27, 2014 No luck, I'm afraid - same result. The menu loads for about half a second, then jumps straight back to the ArmA III black loading screen. I've had a look through the .rpt but haven't had any luck in there (i.e. nothing immediately incriminating leaps out). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PolyG 69 Posted January 27, 2014 I'm sad to say no joy; nothing in the rpt file jumps out, and I've been running it with my modpack (where your older versions have hidden before) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lordheart 1 Posted January 27, 2014 Well that throws a hammer in the works. If you could try this PBO, although it won't make much difference since my mod only really comes into effect when loading a mission, which it seems that you can't even get to. However, this PBO adds diag_log logging so you should be able to see when it has initialised and so on. If at all possible, could you perhaps verify Game Cache in Steam to remove that as a possible issue as well. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43996324/Arma/lhm_glasses_main.pbo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lordheart 1 Posted January 27, 2014 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43996324/Arma/%40LHM.zip This version removes the gear menu cleaning interaction to fully remove that as a possibility. One other thing to test is to copy the userconfig over again. (this seemed to fix a similar issue with clan mates, except they could get into game but couldn't get back to menu it would freeze then). The other option might be that the signed files are causing issues, so if you could remove all keys and bisign files and try like that maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
