Reinstalled Arma no joy. Added feedback tracker.

Quick test

create MP scenario

play scenario, toss smoke, see smoke, save, save & exit

close Arma3

restart Arma3 using the launcher

resume mission

I do not see smoke

 

FYI: I have seen this phenomenon happen many many times in the past. The fix that I found was to (weirdly enough) toss a smoke, exit only the mission (not Arma3) then resume. Not only was my smoke from the smoke I just tossed visible again but so were any other smoke effects that might have been present.

as far as the host seeing smoke and player not, or vice versa as you mentioned earlier, I have no opinion.

    : Since you let me have the stage

...another quirck I have had since the very first days of Arma3, Whenever I quit playing a mission and go to desktop, within a few clicks I cannot click on anything so I have to CTRL/Alt/DELETE to infreeze the mouse function. I have have two mouses since Arma3 release.

...You might contact ShackTac (since he is one of the most MP players that comes to mind) and see if he has ever come across this issue.

Yes this seems to work for me too. It's when I shut down Arma and go back in to resume that it breaks.

That Sucks. I don't have that problem. (yet) 😁

 

I've put a ticket into BI and Nvidia explaining how to reproduce it along with a bunch of info of system. Tried 3 different drivers. I'm suspecting it may be cursed on the 3090 because Doug has 3080 with no issues.

...3080Ti = no issues

 

So I ran into this problem a long time ago.

 ...when you create a box, remove a box, repair your vehicle, lock a vehicle, it can take anywhere from 2 to 4 seconds to react. I've been using these mods for a long time without a problem.

Does anyone remember this?

...btw @major-stiffy you say you like gameplay just a bit tougher? I use ambient combat on medium and I also removed the "show dead bodies" in Pilgrimage UI. so instead I use TPW crows around dead bodies to find my kills, just fyi

So your saying particles work as usual now? Must be my 3090 then? Haven't heard a peep on my ticket for this. 😡

 

We were using ambient combat but found it took too much of our action away so we stopped.

Umm  didn't remember that was an option.

Crap, got a "no smoke" last night!

I've recently discovered this as well. For some reason exactly this scenario isn't displaying smoke effects (or any particle effects, ie, Kajman HE smoke) after save\load. I have 1060. Also, for some reason, Pilgrimage deletes my save file after 3-5 days from the last save...

Same except I do get it back at some point on resume. SP only though.

I can't confirm that myself yet.

This is actually could be associated with one of the mods I used called "m3mory"

I've tried both SP and MP without mods, still affects particles.

[pvt. partz 248]

I've been using THIS for about two weeks and haven't have a dead smoke yet.

SP for me isn't too bad, I'll typically have smoke between resuming. It's MP that's drives me crazy. I see the author of that mod says not MP compatible. Shit

Known Issues:
- Scripts running at the time of save cannot be re-initiated after. Also, full script environment cannot be re-initialised without starting the scripts at the beginning, which is likely to cause more trouble than it is worth. So I recommend loading mission progress whilst in the original mission.
- Unit names not syncing globally. Will likely cause issue if scripts require a unit to have a specific name on clients.

 

 

I guess it's worth a shot. Thanks.

[major-stiffy 279]

Tried it. Same issue as this guy commented on the workshop page.

I'm having issues Wert - when I save the progress bar moves, but no saves show up in the window. Effectively, there's nothing to load.

 

Quote

For best results when loading, start the original mission, then load your progress with the UI.

 

Nope. No saves shown to load in the UI.

 

Quote

Saved mission files are stored in the mod folder, so take care.

 

I think because no saves found in the mod folder.

Why is the video private?

[Rydygier 1317]

This video was made for Armaholic website. I guess, the author made it private after Armaholic was gone. Pity. 

[pvt. partz 248]

Hey is this the same guy...

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHEVnKcNhZlen_jIO4Gu7EA

...but went by a different name back then?

EIther way Titus Groan (RIP) did make a few decent videos you might like.

[Rydygier 1317]

Actually IIRC the author of removed video is the same, as here:

Update on loss of particle effects. Dedmen replied to my ticket. Shame he won't look into it.

 

Quote

This is quite a bit of work (maybe a couple days), for VERY little gain.
(Compared with all players) very few use savegames, even fewer will have particles happening when they save.
And overall its more of a minor un-niceness rather than something game breaking.

So probably won't happen, not worth it for me

Cool showcase by HazBo:

Pilgrimage should have won 1st place. Yeah, I'm still playing it but mostly MP.

[grrl267 21]

Just uninstalled A3 (again) after 3k+ hrs in that scenario. The Cherno map by Stiffy or Prv Parts (don't remember which of you modded it) is my favorite, so smooth, and a simply gorgeous map. Hard to believe I was actually back on Cherno.

Huh? So in other words you played the mission magically on your Arma unicorn 🦄 without the files 😆

 

Insert LOTR meme here

Now for the 300 meme:
