zonker3210 1 Posted February 4, 2009 I'm using the 1.01 Public Beta of the ACE mod. The installation succeeded and I can use the ACE mod in both single-player and online multiplayer mode. Two missions, however, are not running. Both are new (each less than a month old, I believe) and both use the Avgani mod as well as the ACE mod. Whenever I try loading the missions, I receive the following message: Quote[/b] ]"You cannot play this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted. ACE_Cargo" I doubt that the problem is the combination of mods since I can play another mission that uses both mods. I've tried changing the order of the mods in the load command by using this... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"arma.exe -nosplash -mod=@Avgani;@ACE" ...as well as this... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">"arma.exe -nosplash -mod=@ACE;@Avgani" Unfortunately, that didn't resolve the issue. I'm wondering if the mission creators used an earlier version of the ACE mod and later changes in the 1.01 version are causing the problems. Just for the record, I've searched my ArmA directory and there are no files/folders with the word "cargo" in the name...not sure if there should be but I figured I'd mention it in case it's relevant. When I check the mission's pbo file, I note the following entry... <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">addOns[]= { "ace_config_vehicle", "afghan_village", "ace_config_men", "datsun_armed_dbe1", "ace_config_weapon", "cawheeled", "ACE_Cargo", "ace_sys_map", "ace_sys_heliwind", "ace_sys_missiles", "camisc", "cabuildings", "WarfareBuildings", "opxbuildings", "opxmisc", "opxplants", "cti_buildingsm113_hq", "porto", "caweapons", "cadata", "ace_sys_huntir" }; I can find pbo files for most of the other addons...a few aren't exact, though. For example, there's no "cabuildings.pbo" file but there is a massive "CA.pbo" file so perhaps that encompasses the cabuildings, cadata, camisc, caweapons and cawheeled entries...? After digging through the mission's pbo file, I've started to get a better idea of how the code works. I then checked the ACE mod team's changelog page and found the following under the 1.01 version's CHANGED category... Quote[/b] ]Removed ace_sys_cargo (Can use RKSL Cargo System etc) and ace_sys_respawn (belongs with missions) [sickboy] This seems to suggest that I might be correct in thinking that the mission creators used an earlier version of the ACE mod and later changes in the 1.01 version are causing the problems. If that's indeed the case, then it looks like the mission must be modified to use the RKSL Cargo System in place of the apparently defunct ACE Cargo System. In any event, is anyone else having this problem? Are the recent changes in the ACE mod causing this message? Is there an easy solution? Any and all constructive suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

manzilla 1 Posted February 4, 2009 When I check the mission's pbo file, I note the following entry...<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">addOns[]= { "ace_config_vehicle", "afghan_village", "ace_config_men", "datsun_armed_dbe1", "ace_config_weapon", "cawheeled", "ACE_Cargo", "ace_sys_map", "ace_sys_heliwind", "ace_sys_missiles", "camisc", "cabuildings", "WarfareBuildings", "opxbuildings", "opxmisc", "opxplants", "cti_buildingsm113_hq", "porto", "caweapons", "cadata", "ace_sys_huntir" }; First what mission is it? Maybe I missied it but I didn't see it in your post. If you want to play the mission you should just be able to remove "ACE_Cargo", from that list. Make sure it isn't listed anywhere else if so remove it. I had this same problem with a mission I made as well but it was with another part of ACE that was disabled. Removing this should work but unfortunately if you already started playing the mission will not load so you'll have to start over. Let me know if this doesn't work and the mission and I'll think of something else. EDIT: Are the missions ACE_Afgan_Patrol_UKFORCES_v1_0.afghan_village and ACE_Operation_Afgan_Patrol.afghan_village? If they are just removing the ACE_Cargo from the first 2 lists is not all that needs to be done. I got them both working but had to do a few tweaks(remove a game logic and replace an Insurgent class name for a different one via the mission.sqm.) If you'd like me to tell you what I did in detail just send me a PM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zonker3210 1 Posted February 4, 2009 Thanks for the info, Manzilla. The missions where I encounter this issue are as follows: - Â ACE_Operation_Afgan_Patrol.afghan_village.pbo - Â ace_mod=fsi=someday.avgani.pbo Haven't tried the UK version of the former since I think it requires more mods than I currently have installed. I'm encountering a similar issue with "Operation_Countenance.ACE_Island_73eastings.pbo" but it's warning about the "ace_island_73eastings" addon instead of "ACE_Cargo". I figured if I'd deal with one at a time. In any event, thanks for the info. I'll shoot you a PM as I'm quite interested to see what scripting changes are needed to fix this sort of thing. I appreciate your help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

icehollow 0 Posted February 5, 2009 I understand the team is got a lot on it's plate at the moment, but I have a suggestion if I may: Currently the AI do everything they can to get out of a building when the shooting starts. I understand AI is hard to code, but perhaps an idea might be to look into one of the several AI mods out there and see if AI taking up positions in buildings can be implemented?

spamurai 3 Posted February 5, 2009 I think there is a bug in the dynamic lighting cast by burning vehicles.

At least try this in a vanilla mission or in the editor to see whether it is reproducible and then you'll know whether it is an ACE bug or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe there's one posted one the ACE forums but just in case: http://rapidshare.com/files....xt.html It's a little jumbled, I know, but it does the trick.

Bucic 1 Posted February 6, 2009 Try turning off hardware sound/EAX, I remember having that happen once awhile back, and that fixed it at the time. It doesn't work It makes the problem less significant but still ArmA is not playable. With sound acc disabled I hear nothing except vehicle sounds, shots and radio comms. Plus those sounds are getting completely muted by a single bush. Plus I don't want to play without using my sound card potential (SB Audigy Platinum). EAX is an old technology and I think it's nothing bad to just want it to work properly. Maybe it's time to start addons one by one. I don't know if the problem is ACE related. Just to be clear. Here's my command line (which gives me the sound problem): <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">E:\ArmA\beta\arma.exe  -nosplash -mod=beta;@ACE;@GL3;@TrueMods;@PROPER;@InfWepRepl;@InfReplI have very little time to play and here the problem pops up  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manzilla 1 Posted February 6, 2009 I'd say it's gonna be something from TrueMods or one of the Proper_Sound .pbo's. Just try to remove those from the target line and see if it goes away. I've never heard of any problems with proper mod so I'm not sure that would cause a problem. But I do know rg said in his thread that some parts of TM should not be used with ACE. I'm really not to sure why these would cause this problem but it's worth a try to remove them to test it. Besides this, I don't know anything else to offer for advice.

Mark XIII (DayZ) 18 Posted February 6, 2009 Quote[/b] ]Bucic Posted on Feb. 06 2009,03:13-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sound problem During gameplay all saounds are going more and more quiet untill I hear almost completely nothing except some radio comms. Same situation with or without Chammy Sound Mod (installed as per ACE Mod FAQ). Any suggestions? Its the bullet cracks I think, I get the same on my system and had the same issues whilst making the HiFi series of sound mods, this is part due to the sound dampening effect built into arma and the volumes/config volumes of certain sounds (mainly sonic cracks) made by us sound modders. There is no way to beat it completely but, volumes can be altered so its far less prevalent. Or you try what Manzilla suggested by removing the sonic cracks completely. hmmm, a thought.. if you wish to find the sounds entries in the config files and alter the sonic crack sound volumes to a more reasonable level, you could try altering the volumes to something like this.. -1db (for distant cracks) -3db (for close cracks) I was tinkering with hifi 1.5 awhile ago and changed the sonic crack volumes to these levels, it seemed to work quite well, although if the actual sound (ie the wss file) is too loud this will cause issues too. so check the sounds for clipping (excessive volumes), as reducing the volume here could help too. Hope that was helpful. Mark XIII Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now it's time for CSM without ACE test! Now it's time for the rest of addons with ACE with #define ACE_OVERRIDE_BIS_SOUNDS disabled (commented out) as I get this problem in my final addon compilation. I use some of The.D recommended: PROPER - only plants+lowplants! True: trueingameui.pbo trueintro.pbo truemovementsound.pbo truenvgoggles.pbo trueui.pbo truevehiclenoise.pbo and only trueingameui.pbo is a must have for me. The rest of True pbo's are in /Addons/disabled folder. Does this trick really disable those pbo's?! CSM GroupLink3 - complete, the most fishy IMO E:\ArmA\@GL3\AddOns\Extended_Eventhandlers.pbo E:\ArmA\@GL3\AddOns\GL3_Config.pbo E:\ArmA\@GL3\AddOns\GL3_Core.pbo E:\ArmA\@GL3\AddOns\GL3_Sound.pbo E:\ArmA\@GL3\E.E.H.Config\Extended_Eventhandlers.pbo E:\ArmA\@GL3\E.E.H.Config\Extended_Eventhandlers.pbo.SLX_XEH2.bisign E:\ArmA\@GL3\E.E.H.Config\Extended_EventHandlers_Readme.txt E:\ArmA\@GL3\E.E.H.Config\GL3_Config.pbo E:\ArmA\@GL3\GL3_Settings.sqf The questions are - have I enabled the XEH right and should I leave the sound pbo? Thank you all for your input but you were not helpful Meaning I don't know what to do next except to test the rest of the mods which I'm going to do now. First "the most fishy" one Edit: Inkompetent (yup, that's his nickname:D) says: 1) You only need one instance of XEH running, and if you use ACE it should be ACE's version. Just use the .pbo to make GL3 compatible with XEH, but don't the supplied XEH .pbo file. 2) Since groups in a mission need the correct init-line to make use of GL3 missions not made for use with GL3 will not use it. You'll have to modify the mission manually by making sure to add the correct code to the init-line of all units that you want to use GL3. So I sack GL3 with relief. I mostly play original sp campaign plus I have no idea how this guy's enabling XEH method is different from the method described in the GL3 Readme. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manzilla 1 Posted February 6, 2009 Just noticing something but what extended_eventhandlers are you using? Quote[/b] ]E:\ArmA\@GL3\AddOns\Extended_Eventhandlers.pbo Does this mean you have 1 in the @GL3/AddOns folder? If so check the date of it, and in any other folder. You should only use the XEH .pbo that's in the ACE/AddOns folder. Other versions are not the same and may cause problems. The reason I ask is that the XEH .pbo that comes with ACE is extended_eventhandlers.pbo. I noticed that the one you show has capital E's and the ACE one has lower case. If you are using any other XEH besides the one from ACE, remove it and copy and paste the one from the ACE folder in the other folders that have XEH in it. EDIT: Yup, I see that E.E.H Config in GL3 has the 9/20/2008 XEH.(That's v1.9 and is not the same as the one in ACE/AddOns folder. Remove all XEH .pbo's in every folder and replace it with the one that comes with ACE. I'm not sure if this will fix it but either way the only XEH file you should use with other AddOns/Mods is the one from ACE. What I do is make an @XEH modfolder and place @XEH as the last folder in the shortcut target line. That way XEH does need to be in every folder. Like this<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">E:\ArmA\beta\arma.exe -nosplash -mod=beta;@ACE;@GL3;@TrueMods;@PROPER;@InfWepRepl;@InfRepl;@XEH I use all the same mods as you plus many, many more and I've never had this problem with sounds. I hope this helps. GL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
