Yes, but as far as I know Riouken moved recently and since then every development on cTab (or it's implementation in ACE³) has been put on hold.

It seems that marking enemy positions in cTab since the latest Arma/CBA update has stopped working, can anyone else confirm?

Whitelist all cTab functions and the Vanilla function it invokes. You can do that in your server cfg.

Is this mod actively being maintained? Last update May 2015 on armaholic. Is there another forum where this mod is being discussed?

gundy who was the main developer of this mod moved to Canada sometime last year. That's the last I have heard from him.  So no, there is nobody working on cTab anymore right now.

On my dedicated server I tried out the helmet cam function, which worked fine. However next time I joined, the cam feed would remain white. Same thing for UAV feed. Any help? It happened for no reason

I'm aware that this addon hasn't been supported for a long time, but there are some recent bin/config errors popping up with the 1.60 update. It seems to occur only when using the GD300 Android, Rugged Tablet or a vehicle-mounted BFT.

The addon appears to work correctly otherwise, it's just these errors whenever you open these tablets, but it leads to a bit of .rpt-spam. Does anybody have enough knowledge with GUI editing or scripting to fix this? cTab appears to be under the GNU General Public License, so if I understand that correctly, you can modify it if you give credit to the author and make your modifications public with the same license. It would be a shame to see such a great addon slowly die off with each ArmA update.

yeah, so?   :P  Kidding aside, it seems that the ctab if configured ,could use the new draw on the map stuff BIS put in 1.60. Would be great.

 

Non issue, just a nag box to push past.I use this Mod every time I play.

I think an update is VERY unlikely...since the last time the mod creator was online here was sometime April 2015 :o

Needs to be added to the mod's RscMapControl definition

Made a little pbo for anyone who don't want to mess around them selves using the values spyderblack723 posted above. Works like a charm for our group.

Thanks a bunch spyder!

(includes keys and the whole shabang)

Does this have to be run as its own @ folder or can I just add the pbo's into the existing @cTab? 

 

Thanks

Just chuck it in anywhere. Own folder, ctab folder ... doesn't matter. Place it where it feels most logical for you, it has cTab as a dependency so as long as that gets loaded, you're golden.

Hi there!

 

Awesome work,  but i got serious problem with the addon. When i press "H" microDAGR shows up so the addon installed correctly but i can't see the the "ctab" dropdown menu in "configure addons" menu. I would like to change the binding from "H" to "P". Edited the ctab_settings.hpp file also but doesn't work for me... Pls help!
