Can't call #Mission no more

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I don't know if its the Addons (doubtful), the missions (doubtful, cuz of testings) or because of the latest update but we can't access the Missions via "'missions" anymore. It hat worked before pretty well. We got in know of that issue yesterday so we can't tell if its since yesterday or before. I can just say, it had work not long ago.

It's getting Worse. Not only we can't call the missions anymore....after we typed "#missions" the server freezes. We can't do anything no more except for disconnecting. Starting the mission or choosing a role doesn't work then. If we diconnect and reconnect afterwards the only thing you see is the loading screen (with the map, you know!).

What could cause that problem?

We had tested around a bit.

Starting the server with no mission or with no (selfmade)mission on the server....no mods....nothing's working.

I don't want to set up the whole server from the scratch. It would take a fortune to upload the mods again. T^T

Any Ideas?

Many Greetings

Moony

Hi,

we had the same problem after the latest Arma update. We've tried different things, but nothing helps :-(

At the end I had to reinstall the server from scratch.

But now we have another problem ... the server performance.

Before the update, our server ran with 45-50 frames in every situation,

but now after the update everything is going very slow and the server only runs at 20 frames.

This is absolutely frustrating :(

Hmmm .. checked integrity of cache? Not using PERF server binary ?

Apart from that I don't know what to suggest. Certainly working for me. So there must be something with your setup/files.

Obviously this is a pretty specific issue on your server, as it isnt a widespread issue, so I would suggest the following

1) Comment out the Mission cycle section completely from your *****.cfg, eg

/*
 // MISSIONS CYCLE (see below)
 class Missions
 {
         class Mission1
        {
             template="co_xx_mymission.stratis";
             difficulty="Regular";
         };
 };
*/

2) Remove all the missions in your MpMissions folder (Back them up and move them somewhere)

3) Run your server as pure vanilla (No addons etc)

4) Login as admin, type #missions and see if you can load 1 of the BIS missions that will be available (Not one of the latest Zeus missions, one of the earlier ones)

If you have success then the issue is with

a) Your config

b) any addons you run

c) The most likely one, is the latest mission you uploaded to the server

If you fail, delete the ArmA3 install less the following and reinstall it (Sometimes steam updater can be a bitch and corrupt the install

1) user folder

2) keys folder

3) MpMissions, although you should have backed this up and it should be clean anyway

4) Any 3rd party content, eg mod folders you have installed

5) userconfig (if it exists)

One of our servers run the latest vanilla without any issues so i doubt the latest version is the real cause

If you ever have problems with a server, prove vanilla first then load 3rd party content

Hi,

Hmmm .. checked integrity of cache? Not using PERF server binary ?

how can I check this? Especially the thing with the "PERF server binary"?

Hi,

how can I check this? Especially the thing with the "PERF server binary"?

Silola

You can do this with the steam client by selecting

1) Library

2) (From the left column with all the games are listed) Right Click on ArmA3

3) Select Properties tab

4) Select Local files tab in window that opens

5) select "Verify Integrity of game cache"

Alternatively, you can run a batch file with the following

Edit as per requirements for branch, installation directory etc

The "VALIDATE" bit does that automatically

@echo off

SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION

:: DEFINE the following variables where applicable to your install

SET STEAMLOGIN=mylogin mypassword

SET A3BRANCH=233780 -beta

:: For stable use SET A3BRANCH=107410

:: For Dev use SET A3BRANCH=107410 -beta development

:: For Dedi server stable package use SET A3BRANCH=233780 -beta

:: Note, the missing qotation marks, these need to be wrapped around the entire "+app_data......"

SET A3Path=D:\Games\ArmA3\A3Master

SET STEAMPATH=D:\apps\Steam

:: _________________________________________________________

echo.

echo You are about to update ArmA3

echo Dir: %A3Path%

echo Branch: %A3BRANCH%

echo.

echo Key "ENTER" yo procede

pause

%STEAMPATH%\steamcmd.exe +login %STEAMLOGIN% +force_install_dir %A3Path% +"app_update %A3BRANCH%" validate +quit

echo .

echo Your ArmA3 is now up to date

echo key "ENTER" to exit

pause

This will check all the vanilla install

I'd only run the performance binary after you have proven the latest stable server.exe

I'll do Anything to speed up the release of DAC for A3 :-)

Many thanks Terrox!

I'll do Anything to speed up the release of DAC for A3 :-)

I know, but since the latest Arma update my server runs very poorly and I don't know why :-/

What exactly is "performance binary"? How can I activate this mod/tool/what ever? Is it installed automaticly with the latest patch?

And how can I check if my server is using this "PERF server binary"?

I've only a small test server here >>> https://server.nitrado.net

Thanks in advance

The performance binary is available from Dwarden, it doesnt come automatically with any patch.

It is a seperate development from the main A3 development and stable branch and will only work with the stable release.

It's just an arma3server.exe with a different filename. Download it copy it to the A3 install and run that exe instead of the default one

There are some BI Devs working on this area specifically to try and improve Multiplayer performance.

They are having successes and when they do, they make it into the next stable. Sometimes we get a performance boost, sometimes it takes a hit but overall its going in the right direction

To keep up with this you need to join the Server Admin skype group

If I may add another thing to try...

unsubscribe all missions in steam, there was some corruption in some missions lately that was preventing me to "host". I know it is far from the behavior you presently have, but if I were you, that is something I'd try.

regards,

Holo.
