Hummel 0 Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) Well I've given up on trying to figure this out myself. Situation: Impossible to stay connected to any server longer than 5 minutes. On average I stay connected for approximately 1-2 minutes, if that, then I get a solid red chain and the classic "No message received for xx seconds..." until I'm booted. Things I have tried: - joining a server with the firewall off, then joining a server with the firewall turned on again - validating Steam files (doesn't work... always gets stuck on 99% at file 2 of 2) - deleting the addons folder, then joining the server in question, letting Steam re-download the mods - deleting the common redist folder in Arma 3 and validating files (same story, stuck on 99%) - deleting "ClientRegistry.blob" and validating files (same story) - brute force? every time I lose connection I immediately reconnect and it feels like I stay connected a little while longer, but this is probably a placebo affect of some sort. I've noticed that I'm supposed to have a report file in my Arma 3 folder but I don't. I don't have the -nologs startup line. My thinking is the problem has something to do with that, combined with the inability to completely validate my Arma 3 client. Looking for any ideas here.

soceris 56 Posted August 2, 2019 A low fps or bad ping might be the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hummel 0 Posted August 2, 2019 I don't have low fps to these servers, and I get <80 ping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soceris 56 Posted August 2, 2019 Or a server has a crap ton of scripts that break you're game that causes it to crash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hummel 0 Posted August 2, 2019 The server in question has no custom scripts, just the few mods. I have replicated this issue by joining all sorts of servers. Modded, unmodded, script-heavy and -light. High ping, low ping, high pop, low pop, doesn't matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soceris 56 Posted August 2, 2019 How much is your fps, 30 or more? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soceris 56 Posted August 2, 2019 What kind of servers are they? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hummel 0 Posted August 2, 2019 I just told you that. All kinds. The server I *want* to join has ACE, TFAR, SMA, and CBA. It runs Liberation on Altis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
