Gunter Severloh 4052 Posted June 28, 2015 Move the patch to your Arm3 directory, and run it from there, if you get same error, redownload the patch and do the same. alt link for the patches are on my website--> http://www.missionrepository.com/ifa3-patches Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunter Severloh 4052 Posted June 28, 2015 Have you run the game once since the conversion, and are running as admin? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunter Severloh 4052 Posted June 29, 2015 Excellent, glad you found a way! Any other questions dont hesitate to ask, also when you get the chance check out the IF Fan Forums These are the Iron front forums that have replaced the official ones, and also where the conversion started!

seizetheday4eva 10 Posted July 2, 2015 Hi Peeps So i own ARMA3 on steam and thought wow this mod looks cool, so went ahead and purchased Iron Front on steam. Started both of games as administrator, played each one for a few minutes. Then went and installed Play WithSix, i downloaded 2 mods: Iron Front in Arma 3 - @IFA3 Full Conversion v10.0 Community Base Addons - @CBA_A3 System V.1.1.23.150604 So basically the converation ran and it took quite some time, downloaded all those community base addons etc, finally got to 100%. I then hit Launch and came up with some error message about something being missing, then it launched Arma3 and told me lots of things were missing, i clicked clear all and then tried to continue. Looked at one of the single player missions and tried to launch it then everything would just freeze and i'd have to Ctrl+Alt+Delete. Is there anything i've done wrong that springs to mind? Under Local in Play withSix i have 2 folders, Arma 3 Game Folder which has 8 files inside, and Arma 3 Mods which has 2 files inside. Been dying to play this mod so would really appreciate any advice? Oh i did notice one thing, when selecting which mods to download there was the one i downloaded (Iron Front in Arma 3 - @IFA3) which was around 35mb and another one with a very similar name but had the word standalone too i believe which was 15.5GB huge difference, did i download the correct one? One last thing, i do own Arma2 and OA on steam but i don't have them installed, would it help if i installed them? ---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 PM ---------- Also can you play the standalone missions/campaigns with bots using this mod and secondly, does anyone still play the multiplayer maps for this mod? Hate to go through all the trouble of installing and then find out that nobody plays and you can't use the single player missions either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soviet_Gymnist 10 Posted July 18, 2015 I have IF and have done everything up to "IronFront_DLC_Arma3_CommunityPatch_1.00-1.07_Steam" But when I try to add the patch, I get these... "Please be patient. This update may appear to take a long time to complete. It is updating and installing very large data. Arma 3 Iron Front DLC for Arma 3 Patch: Updating version 1.48 to version 1.99... Some error occurred during patch installation. Patch file is probably damaged. You may need to download it again. Error in file cannot find xdelta3.exe, phase 5." If anyone knows how or what to do, please let me know. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.kju 3244 Posted July 22, 2015 @ Soviet_Gymnist Probably some security suite of yours is blocking the exe. See the IFA3 thread for someone with the same prob and got it solved. --- @ ALL We are looking for a few very dedicated tester (SP+MP) for the next patch. Mainly about grenade throwing, mine usage and FPS drop due to grenade FX. Please PM me if serious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subject319 25 Posted July 24, 2015 I've been trying to install for a while now (coming back and trying every now and again) and I'm trying to do it manually, but universally I have the same problem. For the first main game patch EXE, it universally gets to 4% and the file @IF\ADDONS\IVACHEV_LAYERS.PBO then seems to not do anything for a while, but it doesn't freeze. It then just closes, with no error messages. I can even run it again, and just ignore all the files that have already been patched, and then it gets to IVACHEV_LAYERS.PBO and does the same thing. I've tried this 4 times on 2 different computers, no antiviruses are running when I do it. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cel.Geoffry 1 Posted August 2, 2015 I'm having a problem, the update unpack everything correctly, but at the time of install, the program appears only for a few seconds and disappears, and gives an error is the same, and unfortunately I'm using windows 10 and already tried running as administrator, someone like the same mistake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Severloh 4052 Posted August 2, 2015 It possibly could be an issue with Windows 10, idk, were you able to apply previous patches without issues before installing Windows 10? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom_48_97 523 Posted August 2, 2015 Have you try to run the installer in Windows 8.1 compatibility? Perhaps it could help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cel.Geoffry 1 Posted August 2, 2015 It possibly could be an issue with Windows 10, idk, were you able to apply previous patches without issues before installing Windows 10? Honestly, it's the first time I install this mod, I realized that the problem is because the patch installer that opens after extracting some in less than 1 second Have you try to run the installer in Windows 8.1 compatibility? Perhaps it could help. It does not have to apply the compatibility patch installers = ( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have bersion 1.03.. and for some reason i cannot update it to 1.13 i have tried to download the patches and they all say their corrupted or will not download because the link is broken...

OriginalDaniel 0 Posted January 14, 2016 Been trying to install this via the manual guide however when i try to run: IronFront DLC Arma3 CommunityPatch 1.00 - 1.07 Steam.exe all i am met with is "File is corrupt" it's in the Arma3 directory running as admin and no virus program is flagging it or anything, I've tried multible times to download it from here as well as the backup on missionrepository however it still gives the same corrupt error. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.kju 3244 Posted May 16, 2016 unfortunately we no longer provide support for the conversion process. it just has proven to be too complicated and error-prone for many people. we are still trying to get a native IronFront version to A3 out.. so please try the new LITE version instead - now with 512x512 instead 128x128 textures: https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/190809-iron-front-in-arm3-lite-preview-versions/ if want to get the conversion process done/working regardless, please head over to Gunter Severloh's IF fan forum where he will continue to provide assistance! http://ironfront.forumchitchat.com @admin please close this thread Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
