bhcluster 15 Posted December 28, 2016 After an update to v1.21, my project cannot be loaded and I am getting these errors: ... any help is greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeg0r 13 Posted December 29, 2016 Hello! I encountered this issue today, perhaps you could help... When I start to load my project I get this error and the loading stops. I started to get this issue today, but it won't even load the objects that were placed yesterday, and that's around 3-4k of objects. Here's the link to the project file, if that helps https://www.dropbox.com/s/c29banu6u9efbbv/fow_map_helkijn_Helchin_Village_Vegetation.ini?dl=0 Thank you, Best 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, this string is wrong >>> "[[]]" Normaly this string looks like this: "[3228.925293,2538.148682,0]" >>> it's a position string (x,y,z). You can try to "search & replace" all these wrong strings. Example: search for "[[]]" and replace it with "[[0,0,0]]" ... save the changes and then try to load your project again. If this is working then you will find all the respective objects in the lower left corner and u can delete the objects at this position. Don't forget to save your X-Cam project after this action.

Is this true and if so how? Thanks. @silola Is there a video on this that I didn't see? I heard if you put X-Cam on a server co-op editing is possible. Is it? Thanks.

Undeceived 392 Posted December 30, 2016 Hi Silola, do you know this error message? This problem was there in Arma version 1.64 and it's in 1.66 too. Before that I didn't experience it. .RPT file says this: Quote 15:12:40 Warning: xcam_objects has 'author' configured as an array, should be string. 15:12:40 Warning Message: []: 'bin\config.bin/CfgPatches/xcam_objects/' not an array I'm running the game with these files of X-Cam activated only: xCam_EU.pbo and xcam_objects.pbo But the error also comes with the whole X-Cam package loaded. Do you have an idea what to do? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Undeceived 392 Posted December 30, 2016 1 hour ago, silola said: currently not ... maybe later. Sorry. That's too sad, Silola, but I understand you have a lot of work with other things. It just is a loss of quality, as - in my case - I have several missions in my upcoming campaign using xcam_objects and the error comes in each and everyone of them. It looks similar to these errors reported by bhcluster: On 28.12.2016 at 7:41 PM, bhcluster said: After an update to v1.21, my project cannot be loaded and I am getting these errors: ... any help is greatly appreciated. From my (noobish) point of view it seems to be yet another "screwup" from BI's side (updates introducing new problems), because the error message came even before getting XCam 1.21, but only after one of the youngest Arma updates. @bhcluster, what does your .RPT file say after you close your error messages?

bhcluster 15 Posted December 30, 2016 For what ever reason when I load my project in X-Cam it does not load CUP objects (I have reloaded library but still nothing). Also I get this error when I click on the missing object loaded from my project: Any help is greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please use the xCam.pbo only during the work on your mission. At the end, If you want to play your mission/campaign you don't need this pbo anymore. That means ... delete the xCam logic unit within your mission and save the mission again. That's all. Silola Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silola Thanks for your time, Silola. As I used your wand and boden (etc.) elements, it seems that xcam_objects.pbo is needed anyway.... This is what the whole thing looks like btw.: Image One other thing: Converting the exported sqm into Eden Editor results in an empty mission. Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong?

Of course, I tried to run everything WITHOUT it, as it caused this: On 30.12.2016 at 2:16 PM, Undeceived said: Just throw the file into the @XCam >> addons folder in the Arma 3 folder. You can find it in one of the optional folders in the download package. May solve your problem. If it's not xcam_objects.pbo, then it could be another pbo, where your missing objects are from (given, my whole theory is correct :) at least I experienced your error message this way).

bhcluster 15 Posted January 1, 2017 I still get those error, about half of the CUP object in my project show (the once I have previously placed) I can place them again from the list but cannot delete the entries that are not showing. Here is the pastebin (http://pastebin.com/yeZYRc7T) to my project if anyone can have a look I would be so grateful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here is the pastebin (http://pastebin.com/yeZYRc7T) to my project if anyone can have a look I would be so grateful. Your project looks okay. If you are using CUP then it's a good idea to use only the small "xCam_EU.pbo" with A3 objects only, because the large one is based on A3 + AiA objects and that's maybe the problem. It's also a good idea to re-create the whole xcam_library. Silola Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then it's a good idea to have a closer look at all the different tutorial videos: http://arma-sim.de/xcam/contents/pages/part.html For example: part 15 shows you all the things you have to know about prefabs part 17 shows you things like the pos & object info page If u want to know how to hide the prefab and object info windows, then simply press the buttons [Pre] & [Pos] (@the top of the screen) to hide/show the respective window.
