A.C.E. Advanced Combat Environment - Public Beta!

why is there this message AFTER UPDATING???? APS Config not found!!! this makes me mad

[miles teg 1]

The Tactical Gamer servers have a solution for this. We set up our own Yoma updater with our own updates that way everyone who plays on our server is on the same version as the SIX updater was a bit too much of a hassle for server admins and players alike. This way TG updates whenever major changes are made and if anyone complains, we just point them to the Yoma updater (which most of our players have no) and give them the link to the update. The rest is a piece of cake except when they have to redownload the entire pack because they are updated ahead of what we have our server set to. But generally speaking our admins have been doing fairly well updating things regularly so that we're fairly close to the most current ACE2 SIX updater version.

Euuh some other people miss the sound of the a10 warthog? I just was so happy with the realistic sound but now I only hear a part of the old sound 1 sec and rest no sound in ACE. Others have this problem with the a10??

[blaunarwal 10]

@zcommon_ace does no longer work with ace2. There's a file missing.

Warning Message: Addon 'zeu_c_ai_other' requires addon 'ace_c_ai_other'

I don't have the latter on my system.

Is it possible to update @zcommon_ace with the six updater?

When i use a weapon with caliber 5,56x45 then i can´t hear the shots from the rifle. Should be fixed ASAP.

I´ve found the problem. Had to delete extra files via Yoma...

Trying to address all issues before the update of Friday, and the patch-less weekend.

Regarding the server / client crashes: http://dev-heaven.net/issues/show/7039

For those with sound issues, please check this ticket.

The APS error is known and resolved for next update: http://dev-heaven.net/issues/show/7038

One last thing i forgot to mention. People sometimes crash to desktop at the same time server crashes. Just happened just now 30min into game after we updated ace. Someone connected to server and benny the maker of Warfare BE and other guys then crashed to desktop and server went down.

Server not using beta patch but benny was and maybe others.

We are running the ArmA2 beta server and what you describe happened on our server yesterday.

Yeah, I've noticed that @ACE_SM only adds few sounds from ACE, not all of them... Shame... Can't wait for complete @ACE_SM with all of the sounds

This provides some insight.

You could also try searching this topic for whatever you want to know.

My ACE version seems to be stuck at 0.185 - or rather it updates to the latest version, but when I go into the game it has "0.185" on the main menu and I get the version mismatch error when I try to play with someone else (who has fully updated also).

I've tried re-installing ACE from the 7zip files again and using a new .yml from the Lazy Method page but it's still stuck as 0.185 (even though the updater says it has updated to 0.188 and the .version file in @ACE says 188).

I also get an error message when starting ArmA 2 from my beta ACE shortcut saying " Addon 'acex_c_wep_smg_us' requires addon 'acex_c_wep_bis' "

Any idea how to fix these problems? The first one means I can't play with my friends despite having the correct version.

For latest updates on the fixes, please review previous page last post.

@Lhowen:

If you are on Vista/7 please check and clean your virtual store: http://dev-heaven.net/issues/show/6806

Then, make sure you always run the software right click "Run as Administrator".

If you still have issues, please setup a ticket, thanks!

here is a mirror to the ACEX_SM file (sound mod) I received from the six-updater. It includes the rsynch folder.

Thank you a million times. That saved what remained of my hair from being pulled out in frustration. (It was the Virtualstore prob.)

And thanks to the crew for an amazing mod!

[WYZe1 10]

Ziggy what is in that sound mod? is it all sounds or just certain sounds?

[Lhowon 10]

@Sickboy: Thanks! That cleared up both the problems entirely, as well as one I was having with the config not working. I do run the updater with administrator but it's quite possible I forgot one time, no doubt that's what happened. Thanks again.

[cossack8559 10]

I notice that the ace sounds no longer work i have normal arma2 sounds again... do you plan on re-enabling the sounds soon or do we have to download that sound mod?

[Meatball0311 79]

why cant I install the ACEX_SM from the updater? (Config-Preset thingy)?

[jibemorel 10]

You have to download it via Six Updater / Yoma. Iti s named ACEX_SM

first of all, a big thanks for your fabolous work !!!

I play Arma2 with ACE mod in SP, and I approve the no-radio/chatter option for MP, but I've tried to back with voices, following your instructions:

from folder "C:\Program files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\@ACE\userconfig" I've modified the file "ace_clientside_config.hpp" in this way //#define ACE_NOVOICE...

It's the correct way to do for turn back the AI radio voices with ACE ?

because dont work ... where I'm wrong ? :(

Run six updater, start the web client.

Click on configuration.

Click on synchronize (leave the username and password blank).

Mouseover configuration, click presets.

Click "edit" to the right of the profile you have been using. Beta in my case.

Scroll down to the "Mods" Section.

Select "@ACEX_SM" in the drop down list.

Click "Add Existing" Button.

Click "Update" button.

Click "Main" on the main menu.

Select the profile you just edited. Beta in my case.

Select "Install/Update" as the action.

Click Execute.

Edit: Run six updater as administrator in Vista/Win7

@Meatball try these steps and your on your way to sound heaven again
