Bulldozer doesn't launch

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

right now I try to get into terrain building. For that I use The Atlas: Guide to ArmA 3 Terrain Making. My problem is, that the bulldozer won't launch. I click "Connect to Bulldozer", it loads and for a split sec. a new window appear what disapperas instantly.

That is the Bulldozer-rpt:

Buldozer runs perfectly for me.

This is how my preferences are set:

-buldozer -name=Buldozer -window -exThreads=0 -disableSteam -noAsserts -cfg=p:\buldozer.cfg -showScriptErrors

my be copy it to your preferences and see what happens...I am not sure what the "-connect=pipe\1A041E,8EDB" is about that you have set in your preferences.

He hasn't set them in the preferences. Either Buldozer or TB adds that when you start BD, I just checked my own rpt log:

== P:\Buldozer.exe -buldozer -name=Buldozer -window -exThreads=0 -disableSteam -noAsserts -cfg=p:\buldozer.cfg -showScriptErrors -connect=pipe\2A707A4,8EDB

as you can see "P:\Buldozer.exe -buldozer -name=Buldozer -window -exThreads=0 -disableSteam -noAsserts -cfg=p:\buldozer.cfg -showScriptErrors -connect=pipe\1A041E,8EDB" it does it for me from itself!

I had the exact same problem as you. I could not get BD to start for months. But I finally got it to work by following these steps:

{{ This may or may not work for you}} {{Move your Map project folder some where safe}}

1) Uninstall Arma Tools from Steam.

2) Manually delete any left over Arma Tools folders from you HD

3) Reboot

4) Install Tools from Steam.

5) After Installation, Start Addon Builder from Steam by Right clicking Arma Tools, then close program.

6) Right click Arma Tools from Steam and click play. You will get a pop up with some green checks and 2 red X's. One X is the Bi Tools end User License, Read and agree. The other red X is for the P drive. We are going to fix that now.

On the Arma tools panel down under Misc click on {P: drive (DevP)}, a box pops up, choose {Default}. Then close Arma Tools.

7) Go to your installation folder and start up the {Buldozer Configurator}, choose your option, default is fine, then click apply and close program.

8) Go to your Object Builder folder and start it up. Create a small box and start up BD, it should start up. If it does then great. Go ahead and close it down and close Object Builder also.

9) Go to Terrain Builder and create a map frame and then fire up BD. It should start ok, just will be white looking terrain, thats ok though. Close down BD and TB.

10) Now run Mikeros Arma3P batch file and then copy your Map project folder back to P: and you should be good to go.

These are the exact steps I followed and it worked for me. I hope it solves your problem too :)

No doesn't work. I get stuck at the loading of the bulldozer in point 8.

Why is that so hard to install? -,-
