dlegion 98 Posted April 30, 2018 no mods at all. its a custom mission, so for sure people will blame it, but i can swear i runned it for almost 1 year on my dedicated server with no problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dlegion 98 Posted May 1, 2018 hello! server side no mods at all, but clientside i run ARES and Enhanced Movments! may be it causing the problem ? clientside i ran this for years and didn't noticed particular problems, thinked they were safe! i tried Achilles some time ago, but it needs CBA, screwing compatibility with vanilla server. i mean that ARES works also without CBA, while Achilles does not, and if i run clientside CBA, soon or later client get "session lost" or "kicked by battleye" errors if i run server with CBA and client does not, the same errors and sometimes even server crash! dont know how fix this! thanks for your help man !

dlegion 98 Posted May 2, 2018 my ultimate goal is run a server "vanilla" , wehre everyone can enter with no mods, but allow client mods like Enhanced Movement and ARES (or equivalent, like Achilles), and maybe rappeling. any hope to succeed ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted May 3, 2018 anyone has an idea of whats causing this ? please help ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted May 3, 2018 a new video, this time no mod even on client, pure vanilla server and vanilla client! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stanhope 411 Posted May 3, 2018 Have you verified your game files? Have you looked at your rpt from during the event? Do you have any 'magical' launcher settings? Both for your client and the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted May 3, 2018 good ideas, yes i verified by steam check files, and it says all is fine on both server and client. i formatted my PC two weeks ago, then reinstalled steam, arma3, left 100% vanilla settings...and problem still there. (for other reasons) i buyed an SSD HD, so formatted it,reinstalled all from ground up, still same problem. (verified files again here). problem still present. so i focused on server, totally deleted server folder, re-downloaded arma3 server tools, verified files, reintalled all from ground up. still same problem. i'm running out of ideas :( EDIT: forgot to say: i have all .RPT ...but they are not clear for me...i dont understand if or what is wrong there.

stanhope 411 Posted May 3, 2018 Try launching both server and client without any special params and put thr rpts in a pastebin and link them here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted May 3, 2018 hello, thanks for your help, here are the .RPTs :https://pastebin.com/HkJznZjb CLIENT server RPT is 2,3MB, and pastebin dont allow me more than 512kb, so i link it here:https://mega.nz/#!XohnxQzR!XbPbqnyfqlD93HNcpvoPyvaJ8N2DxyXuyE5oz1vzv7w thanks! PS: more details : the problem never appear in the first moments after joining, but once it start, it degradate quite fast, few buildings start to flash, then many others, then nealry all the scene i have on screen. and FPS goes down from 50 or more to 1 fps .

In both your clients RPT and your servers RPT I see waaay more "Server: Object 2:7908 not found (message Type_93)"-like messages than I've ever seen in mine.

dlegion 98 Posted May 4, 2018 the best and most recent i found about it is this: sadly not much useful :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harzach 2517 Posted May 4, 2018 I would have to conclude that the flashing is due to something in your mission. Perhaps Tanks introduced a change in a command or function that is being used in one of your scripts. A quick way to check would be to launch your server full vanilla and load a default BI mission.

dlegion 98 Posted May 4, 2018 hello! i found another precious info ! the exact same mission, on my own PC dedicated server, runs fine (did two test, the first one was too good to belive, 32h no problems, so i made a second run to be sure was not random, and just now i'm 13 hours no problem...can't be a coincidence! on my PC it runs from same game folder as client, server has no mod, but second test as client i used ARES and Enhanced Movement (my usual mods). now the big question.... what the hell can be on the main dedicated server screwing this??? thanks man !

NeoArmageddon 958 Posted May 4, 2018 The flashing only happens in this particular mission and when connected to a server? This looks more like a graphic issue, a problem with the z-buffer resulting in buildings being sometimes rendered behind the terrain or clipping plane. But that is just what I think when I look at the videos. May be only happening in some special cases, when there is a lot of VRAM used and thus only in a particular mission. But this is just wild guessing. You could test this by lowering your rendering resolution to 50% and disabling PP effects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlegion 98 Posted May 5, 2018 good idea, i try! the strange things is : why on home dedicated does not happens while on other dedicated happens? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
