Hello everyone, I would like to know what I have to do, so that within a group, of trees, grass and stones. Each object behaves in a specific way. The stones I want to behave according to the terrain and the inclination and the herbs also and the trees do not. I know I can do it by selecting all the herbs and activating the slo button. But I would like to know if I can do that by default when they behave like this, when I create a custom multibrush. Greetings to all and thanks for your help.

Tanoa objects have been released from ebo to pbo.

Now all we need is a xcam file to see them in game.

[jimbop 25]

is there a file to see apex assets in x-cam?

[Aphex26 117]

To use Apex objects in Xcam you just need to reload your object library and then they will show in the standard structures library and all. This doesn't allow you to see things like vegetation.

No other addons loaded, reset objects library etc.

I believe the solution is here Poolpunk:

I found the solution:

 

in xCam_Press_Btn.sqf:

 

replace:

_ef = ["xCam_EF_ID", "onEachFrame", xCam_fCamObject] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler;

 by :

onEachFrame{ [] spawn xCam_fCamObject; };

 

And, in xCam_Cam_Object.sqf:

 

add this on begin (I don't know why it doen't inisialized in xCam_Start_UI.sqf):

if(isNil 'xcam_vector_marker')then { xCam_Vector_Marker = createVehicle ["Sign_Sphere10cm_F", (position player), [], 0, "NONE"]; };

 

And done, you can move the camera ;)

He also added a download link for the fix: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4J-rYzO-kt0WmlrT2VfNXFOWjA

Thanks a lot! This workaround works fine for me.  Yay! Missed xCam.

The mentioned updates provided by @fauconjona and @Uro are now available as well on my side.

- updated x-cam.pbo

- iniDB_x64.dll

 

Also check out the News Section, it explains a little to those who are new to X-Cam.

Are you still getting this error?

The reason is simple, you´re running ArmA3 in 64bit but X-cam with the make_file.dll provided in the download is 32 bit.

so either you run ArmA3 in 32 bit or (and that is the better choice) get the 64bit compatible make_file.dll from Killzonekids Website: http://killzonekid.com/downloads/

please Report back if ít works now.

One of the biggest problems i have in XCAM right now is when using the brush tools it will sometimes start to slowdown when i select a brush. this lag stays even when i exit the tool. meaning that my only option to fix it is to exit to editor and completely restart. i believe that the issues lies in the xcam_show_multi.sqf file. I occasionally get and error when using the brush tool pointing to line 229 (image below). 

 

Is anybody else getting this issue? it is very aggravating as i can only place about 500-1000 object before this happens. and i cannot save while it is lagging or it will corrupt the save.

Any way we can get a fix for this? I can lend a hand debugging if needed.

 

 

PS. I know that silola is no longer as active in the development in this but if we could get an autosave feature every X minutes or X objects that would be massive. Keep up the great work guys.

I have the same issue as Aphex, the brush tool seems to have some sort of error over time where it will slow down your game leading to horrendous frames and xcam's ability to process things is slowed to a near halt leading to the inability to place objects in a timely manor or increasing the save times by 4-20 times normal. That being said its an enormously useful tool and I will gladly suffer through the error just to use it for mass placement.

Hi Folks!

I got a little Problem.

When i try to download the optional Files xCam_Metal (v098b) and xCam_Woodworks (v09b) , the site tells me the Files are no longer there!

Is there another way to download these Files?

 

(Sorry for bad english)
 

[Cosmo_D41 117]

XCam can still be found on armaholic: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=28507
The files you are looking for should be there to in the folder "Optional"

[schaefer 53]

Thanks Cosmo!!

Problem solved

With limited space on my C drive I prefer to place all mods on another drive and point my Launcher in that direction.

.....which brings me to my primary point. I am getting this error when ever I start the editor and my question is, Do I need to follow your path directions specifically or can I still continue with the way I have installed your files (my D drive)

[MrSplendid 4]
