View - Pilot fails to load.

[Raid 18]

Hey all,

My problem is the Pilot LOD in an ASLAV is no longer loading and I'm really quite confused as to why. RPT Log doesn't supply an error either.

These commands are present:

LODTurnedOut = 1;

LODTurnedIn = 1100;

Screenshot of what happens: http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/705149414736174427/5BFE382F5B490F6007AF89A65E504DE4356DD02E/

I am currently on Altis Airport. The Cargo LOD loads fine as does the Res0 etc.

So i assume it was working previously? Try taking out the lodturnedin/out commands. These will not work with the driver on armored wheeled vehicles, probably because they inherit from the car class, and the driver is not a defined turret but is hard coded into car class, therefore driver cannot turn out, and will produce similiar problems like this. If your not inheriting from car class or it was working previously then you need to re trace your steps for any errors

I do not know if there is a feedback ticket on fixing this problem

Indeed it used to work, I have retraced my steps and nothing has worked, hence why I came here. I tried removing the LOD commands with no success. I am also inheriting from Car.

Hey Raid,

I think Car_F has problems with turning in/out - from my experiences anyway. I'm sure if you change the inherit around it to something like this then it hopefully should work. If not just post your config and i'll see if I can provide more help.

class Wheeled_APC : car_F {};

class YOURVEHICELCLASSNAME : wheeled_APC

Sorry I should have been more specific with my inheritance, it is already structured as you suggested.

I can't really see much wrong with it, hopefully this will fix it:

               };
       };

This is all I changed as the config is pretty much spot on

       class ADFU_aslav_base_F: Wheeled_APC_F
       {
               //TurnOutFix

               // viewDriverInExternal = true;
	LODTurnedOut = VIEW_PILOT;
               driverAction = "driver_apcwheeled2_out";
               driverInAction = "ASLAV_Driver_View"; 				

Also I think you need to make sure that you have the driver proxy for the LOD 1000 (I could be wrong). Right now I've set the Turned out LOD to VIEW_PILOT but it might need some changing around. Let me know if this helps you out.

Still no potato.

I think I have it figured out, recently I think the LOD selection was broken in an update so hopefully its as simple as just removing the Lodturnedin and lodturnedout entries as having them breaks it. If it doesn't do the job then I'm really unsure how to fix it. From what I've experienced turning out uses the pilot view by default but I could be wrong.

One of the first things I tried. Thanks anyway buddy.

Maybe this? http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=22881

Alright guys, I have reverted to an old version, the config doesn't seem to have much different so i'm guessing somewhere along the line the PilotLOD corrupt. If it happens again i'll post here but other then that thanks for all your time guys.

Alright for anyone interested the above problem was caused when using Mikero's deRTM and removing Headbones, i'm not sure why this happened and it's probably due to me doing something wrong. Thanks again for everyone's effort.
