ACE3 - A collaborative merger between AGM, CSE, and ACE

Recommended Posts

I have a ballistic calculator app for android. there is a editing function (create new bulllet class and  e t.c).

https://github.com/acemod/ACE3/blob/master/extras/CfgAmmoReference.hpp

Can I use this data to import in my app( in metrical) or it is only in game ace3 data?

For the vanilla Arma3's rifles, the Advanced Ballistics module enabled and Strelok Pro,

you have many informations for each bullet (caliber, mass, temperature muzzle velocity shifts)

and the rifles' twist rate if you open the range card in game.

You have the ballistic coefficient, his drag model and the bullet length for each vanilla bullet here :

https://github.com/acemod/ACE3/blob/master/addons/ballistics/CfgAmmo.hpp

Please, respect the units in Strelok Pro, grains is grains, not grams, same for inches (not millimeters),

Strelok Pro includes a unit converter if necessary.

EDIT : with the Advanced Ballistics module enabled, don't forget the correct latitude for each map here :

https://github.com/acemod/ACE3/blob/master/addons/common/functions/fnc_getMapData.sqf

Have a nice day and a good game. :)

As written in the documentation:

But I am doing that already. When I do export from editor it creates already pbo file. So the images should be already inside the file aren't they? Vanilla export is not working in that way? Do I need a new tool to create PBOs or how?

Can you provide a screenshot of your module settings?

I need help - I asked before and didn't see a response. When using RHS and also the ace compatibility files how exactly do I set them up? I have both mods and both are activated but I still get errors. Is there some .pbo shuffling that I need to be doing ebtween the mods?

I had the same issue at the beginning. Did you download the rhs from armaholic? I think the zip there has a problem. Download the RHS from their website and then create a new folder, i.e. @ace3_RHS

then create a subfolder under that called addons.

When it is ready copy the optional ace 3 rhs  files inside that addons folder (ace_compat_rhs_afrf3.pbo, ace_compat_rhs_afrf3.pbo.ace_3.6.2.0-2f73271d.bisign,ace_compat_rhs_usf3.pbo, ace_compat_rhs_usf3.pbo.ace_3.6.2.0-2f73271d.bisign)

When you start the game also activate this new @ace3_rhs and all should work.

At least works by me in that way :)

I assume your images are placed in root of the mission folder? Send me the mission folder and pbo over PM, I can take a look at it.

AI Healing!!!! Oh hell yes!!!

So will human squad leaders still need to issue the command like in vanilla (i.e. Medic Fkey + 6, etc) or is it automatic healing? The github page seems to imply some sort of auto-medic based on certain conditions (not having fired in for 30 seconds, basic medical only, etc) so I was wondering if you could clarify?

I didn't see it listed in the fixed section..,,

Are the Titan launchers working again? Currently, they lock on, fire....then go straight up in the air and never strike the target.

Good question mate... that's knackered our Mod too as we inherit from the Titan...

Ah yes the long-awaited advanced grenade throwing.

Every game will be enhanced from Life, KotH, Survival, Unsung, IFA3, etc.

Kinda makes me wonder why BIS didn't focus on this instead of other improvements (moonlight, cough).

We salute you!

My scroll wheel functionality isn't working for the grenades, is that a CBA version issue?

Also I've just realised that the 'point finger' function has never worked for me or a mate of mine. Could that be a file/keys problem problem?

Are you using ACRE2? If so, make sure you are on latest stable (2.2.0.904), as older versions had a bug with that.

It seems ACRE was the problem for the scroll wheel.

Question about the Advanced Fatigue Module..are the default values in that Module the same as BI Vanilla Fatigue? And what range of numbers is that allowable to?

 

All the updates look great..thanks for all the hard work!

Dev,

So I am doing everything through PlayWithSix. I have the updated mods in my collection, also updated ace and cba. I guess I am wondering if pws is gonna move the file it needs to for me, or is just hang the mod active going to be the right way.

Same for running with the laumcher, just so I know if I go back to manual installs - which I may, it was always headache free for me!!

I honestly think my unit's server isn't running it. The mods guy assures me he has the ace compatibility mods for RF and USF, but we all get the errors even though we have the compatibility mods in our pws collections....same for the BAF compatibility mods. The reason I think they aren't installed correctly or at all is because I did move the .pbO from the ace compatibility mod to rhs back when I still did it manually, and when I tried to connect to the server I actually got booted for having extra mods....guess which ones????

I'm just trying to understand how installing is supposed to go, or how it needs to be, for both stock launcher and pws applications.

Thanks y'all, and Dev especially for the bit back earlier!!

Looking at the New Medical Bandage matrix on the wiki.  It seems that Field Bandages and Packing Bandages have the exact same efficiency down the line.  Also, Packing bandages show a lower efficiency versus Elastic regarding avulsions, when historically they had a higher rating.

IS this a mistake on the new numbers?

No, it is a lot less forgiving as it simulates actual energy usage, read more about it in the pull request comment, documentation is coming.
