Getting a lot of crashes on the Da Krong map, like every fifteen minutes. On the Prei Cambodia map made by bludclot I don't crash even after playing for hours even though that map is much larger and has way more objects and might even be more dense. Even on Khe Sanh I only crash once in a while.

 

It seems to happen every time I turn around too quickly or if I teleport myself across the map. This makes it happen a lot in the editor when I'm flying around with the camera. It spits out this in the .rpt:

 

Version 1.82.144710
Fault time: 2018/06/28 21:48:27
Fault address:  000001C2 00:000001C2 Unknown module
file:     airassault111
world:    DaKrong
=======================================================
note: Minidump has been generated into the file C:\Users\pognivet\AppData\Local\Arma 3\Arma3_x64_2018-06-28_20-39-23.mdmp

This will happen with even just two or three units on the map. It's pretty much unplayable for me right now. I have an insane amount of DDR4 RAM and I'm running 64 bit so its not a memory limit thing. Is this some sort of weird 64 bit problem?

Same happens to me.

On the other hand - 32 bit launcher seems stable while playing Da Krong.

 

I remember that after using one of the avaiable memory allocators the crashes started to appear less often.

Unsung 3.6E update is on Steam Workshop

 

Highlights:

  • Well, it has mainly been a lot of bug-fixes this time around.
  • Londo and Razorback continue to improve their awesome maps. We had to hold back Razors changes until we can fix a last-minute issue with the maps - hopefully we will be able to publish those in a few weeks time.
  • As part of our ongoing massive refurb of aircraft in the mod the new Jets DLC compatible ejection, sounds, loadouts and damage models are gradually rolling out to the aircraft, along with new functions and features, new textures and materials, and crew animations.
  • Special thanks go to all of the hardworking team (you know who you are!) but in particular to TeTeT, without whom there would be no unsung mod - his hard work in the background keeping the data systems working makes him a true unsung hero. Thanks also to some of our helping hands (Lordjarhead, Horriblegoat, Nodunit, wld427, etc.) who have reached out to fix tricky issues, and a big welcome to new team members Midnight and Diesel!
  • Thanks again to all our fans out there. We've been receiving a lot of nice messages in the past couple of months - we do pass them onto the team, and it really does help keep them motivated.

Just popped on to congratulate you guys on your continued work on this great mod. i have been playing mostly on SP with the Unsung mod since its release on OFP and i have to say its one of my all time favorites.

 

There is one question i have about the infantry load outs within the mod. The 1965 US Army forces which are using the M16 are carrying 30rd 5.56mm magazines in their rucks. Is this due to the alice packs having a generic loadout that is equipped to the 65 and later forces?

Note: in this op we were role-playing being cherries on our first weeks of deployment into Vietnam.

So if you hear me babbling on the command net about stopping for tea and biscuits, you'll understand lol.

 

Squad leader Spanky Mcgavin (our second best m60 gunner) takes a squad of actual cherries out on the op near to khe sanh combat base.

Gotta love it, herding pasty-skinned querulous bumblefucks in constant combat hehe. They actually did ok, and held their line against serious odds.

 

 

 

bird's eye view of the operation - from callsign Eagle 1, flying transport and CAS

 

same op from Viking squads POV.

 

My squad (Spartan) sadly had nobody to record it.

thanks eggbeast for the advice. i've always just used the default maloc. i know nothing at all about memory allocators at all. it might as well be moonspeak to me.

 

how do i get the dll for the latest version of JEMalloc (5.1.0)? on their releases page its all source code and .tar files. i really don't wanna have to compile it myself on this jacked up computer im on. is it in the arma 3 dll folder?

 

and how would you compare it to the other one people talk about? tbb4 i think its called.

I can't recall if I asked this before. I remember asking, but can't find my post anywhere.

 

For me none of the mortars/artillery for any side have any ammo. They can never be loaded/reloaded and can never be fired. This is for both players and AI.

 

I know for a fact they used to work because I remember using them in Delta or Charlie or some older version.

 

Just wondering if you guys are aware of that and if a fix is coming anytime soon.

 

Thanks.

Does anyone know how to get the CAS bombing to work yet? I sync'd the plane to the bombing module, that to the requester, and that to player, however, the plane is grey'd out for some reason, despite it being listed in the support menu (It works in vanilla or with RHS). I also want to say that I am glad I finally got around to downloading this! I've had my eye on it since Arma 2, believe it or not, and just never got to play around with it. A lot of content, and the Vietnam setting is very refreshing!
