Andreilarazboi 0 Posted August 2, 2023 Problem: So i hosted a Arma Server on my dedicated PC, that is on a alt account, after i set up everything with TADS as i always do i try to log in through LAN on my main account and i get "You were kicked of the game. Steam Authentication Failed", the main problem and it's a confusing one is that i only get this error when i try to join my new fresh server, if i join Warlords or any OFFICIAL servers i have no issue.What i tried: I tried to run the server with my main account where i own Arma3 but i found out that you can not HOST and play ARMA at the same time, steam gives me an error when ever i try and either disconnects the server or it doesn't let me play/launch the game.

You can run both a dedicated server and a client from the launcher. Or you can run that dedi from TADST or whatever. Or on another PC. Heck, you can launch a dedicated Arma server without buying the game (you just need a Steam account.) The error you describe sounds like maybe your profile folder is set to read-only. But I guess there are any number of things that could cause that error. Verify your files on Steam, maybe log out and back into Steam, restart PC, etc. - all the basic stuff - then try to join your server. Once you get the error, quit, then find your .rpt file. Upload it to a site like PasteBin and share the link here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here is the RPT File : https://pastebin.com/M4TQzYbA I did check my profiles to see if they are on read only, i checked in : C:\Users\drake\Documents\Arma 3\MYNAME.Arma3Profile and from what i have seen they were not on read only. I did restarted my PC a couple of times and i was getting sometimes a crash with the error STATUS_VIOLATION something after a couple of hours playing. The only thing i was able to host was by hosting through ARMA3'S internet hosting thing and my friends were able to join but i was lagging a lot. I know how to host a server on another computer and i think i figured out how to host the server without steam saying anything but the only reason i made this thread is that I'm getting the Steam Authentication failed when i host on my Dedicated server and when i host on my pc, it's the same issue. Should i reinstall Arma3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The easiest being to verify your Steam files, particularly the Arma Server tool. Personally, I've never used that server tool, I just use the default arma3server.exe via the launcher, TADST, or whatever. I've never seen this error before.

Yeah i kinda let it go, i hate that this game still has bugs and erros like this and it still has a lot of potential if Bohemia just made it to run a bit better or use the resources we have in our GPU more than the CPU. 3000 hours in it and i still see more potential in arma3 than reforger. Thanks for your reply if i find a solution i will post it here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harzach 2507 Posted August 6, 2023 Well, like I said, there is no problem using arma3Server.exe. Get rid of the server tool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
