All in Arma Terrain Pack (AiA TP) - A1/A2/OA terrains from BI in A3

[GDent 10]

This is strange, because Lingor worked with A3MP and I even took screenshots before I uninstalled it

I know technically we're not supposed to be using Lingor (Icebreaker doesn't want us to), but it would be worth looking into this sometime because why would it work with A3MP and not AiATP? It could add better compatibility to fix that issue

[serjames 357]

You were somehow luckier than the rest of us... I absolutely guarantee that for pretty much everyone else it was an instant CTD when you tried to run it up in the editor..

that's a shame. but it's worth using AiATP over A3MP so I'll just wait for Lingor A3 to hopefully come out someday

Thank you very much for your work on this. I have very high hopes for this quality package, in line with what serjames wrote.

I have a couple of questions and requests:

Since nobody else mentioned it I guess it's only the case on my end, but the torrent download had some corrupted files and the hash is different than on the first page

AllInArmaTerrainPack_2014_08_10.7z
CRC32: C9CC1D89
MD5: 29C74700F4A4A81BB3BDACB35ABC3801
SHA-1: 1B64F62F21B5639E0487DA84B91523E9E1D9CDAA

Mega link unzipped fine and the hash matches.

For future releases will you release patches as well so we don't have to download the whole new package?

Make all pbo and sign files lowercase for linux dedicated servers?

Rename some of the pbo files so it's easier see which files are needed for each map? Would make it easier to remove certain maps, or perhaps a readme categorizing each map and its needed pbo files?

I dont see any point to compare this to a3mp. This mod is pack of many fixes made by community packed into one mod by kju. Ofc it will be better. A3MP is closed (already sent pm to mods) i will jump into this one too. We all had chance to play A2 maps for long time with a3mp but it was solo project and i had no chances to make somthing bigger and better when group of ppl doing same with more hands. Im glad about this one. Thanks guys.

@Alduric: Thank you again for A3MP. I can say that without it, I wouldn't be still playing A3 today.

Anyone else experiencing ArmA3 freezing when switching between islands in editor? Mine froze when switching from Takistan and Chernarus and after I switched between smaller ones (Rahmadi, Porto, Utes etc.). Should I flush?

[evromalarkey 150]

btw, it's on pws already ;)

yes many people experience that... did it in A3MP as well

Never had that happen in A3MP.

I think this addon still works with AiA TP:

Never noticed that it in A3MP really.

Is it only in the editor, it doesn't crash when switching on a server?

That's the only thing holding my group back from switching

[Outlawz7 1]

Don't have a server, just in editor for me.

[RaptorInMotion 10]

Awesome work! as soon as PWS gets its ass in gear, i will be downloading and using straight away :rolleyes:

[Outlawz7 1]

nvm: see this for crashes/freezes

Alduric, thx to you too. We had been playing more time in Takistan than in Altis, and all for your work.

I have not seen it crash on dedicated server. Not sure which maps exactly that it crashes for me in editor switch but I could make a list :)

[old_painless 182]

Is there a possibility, that AiA TP could take care of this little issues? :)

For F.A.T.A. it's only a texture that is missing if I'm not mistaken.

And for Capraia it's the red tractor :D

And I guess some russian items (vest, helmet, equipment?!?) I don't know what exactly.

Would be awesome to see that fixed, but anyways thanks for the great work! :)

Yeah, Capraia is an awesome map, would be really great to have that looked into

[GDent 10]

Wait, so is AiATP currently crashing in default A1/A2 maps where A3MP isn't? I'd rather wait for a fix to AiATP before switching if this is true

Who said that ? No they work fine - SOME people had some issues :-)

that will no doubt be addressed

SJ

[GDent 10]

thank you. also thanks to Alduric for making A3MP a very adequate holdover for everyone

[serjames 357]

Kju, so currently I can see three Sahrani maps in the editor, all of which look like the original versions, just combined etc. What are the differences between United Sahrani and Sahrani ?

I also tried to run the fantastic SMD_Sahrani, which has all of M1lkm8n and CiforDayZServer's modifications, interiors etc. But I cannot see it in the editor, does AIA TP override it somehow ? I'm using Pw6 to load in

?

SJ

[evromalarkey 150]

@serjames United Sahrani should be improved version of original Sahrani, there are some new locations I think. It was added in A1 with Queen Gambit expansion, United Sahrani was version of Sahrani some years after the campain in A1.

And in my opinion original Sahrani and also South Sahrani (only version without north part of Sahrani) are unnecessary, I would leave only United Sahrani as Sahrani (one unique)

[serjames 357]

Ah thanks - I didn't see any differences but not studied too closely.

I can imagine there is a market for the original maps, some missions were built specifically for them I suppose ?

I'd be happy to get the latest greatest versions with all of the SMD crew fixes working :-)
