I hope they are more in line with the quality of vanilla content this time. Also I hope they use vanilla ammo and mags this time (or at least compatible stats) to make it cross compatible. Unlike GM where weapons deal more damage so you have to play it on its own...

From an earlier changelog (the one before today's): "Tweaked: 3DEN custom compositions now get placed into their own layer (like pre-configured compositions)" Could this be rolled back? I find it a bit annoying when using many small compositions that they are all in their own layer. I find it to be easier to create a new layer for a larger composition right after placing it and still have it all selected, if needed. Or maybe add a checkbox when creating those compositions?

Dear Devs, this DLC was published on 29th of April in 2019. That is now more than a year ago. When is it planned to decrypt the .ebo to .pbo?

All I can tell is that the GM 556 is more powerful than vanilla 556. So I can only assume the same issue goes at least for all small arms.

Okay, this was actually caused by battleeye. After deactivating it it works. Probably my antivirus doesn't like it.

I just got a new PC and now Arma doesnt start. The Launcher starts put it seems to not find the path to the Arma 3 .exe. When starting the .exe directly from the Arma 3 folder it works and the game starts (but without any mods). Is there a way to manually assign a path to the launcher? Any other sollution? I tried reinstalling the game. I have Steam and Arma on my SSD C : drive but another folder for steam games on E: drive.

Its name already says: MGS. Not MBT. It fulfills an entirely different role. It is a mobile, airliftable gun platform for heavy fire support using missiles, a decent gun and machineguns. It is not designed to take hits. But to deliver them from a relatively safe position.

U can also just delete the unit in 3den. The group will stay on given side. You then can save it as custom composition, too. So u can access it without doing the regrouping again.

The good thing about the metal barrel is that it is not affected by gravity but still is 'simulated enough' to not cause problems with AI attaching turrets to it. Try to put the barrel inside whatever object you want to attach sth to (e.g. carrier, bunker) and then hide it by using the eden special state. Then place the turret where u want it and use the mentioned attachToRelative function together with nearest object and classname of the barrel to make it copypasteable. That works fine for me. I can place turrets where I like. Just make sure the eye point is not within an object or it will probably not fire or detect anything.

You can attach it to a metal barrel and then hide that. that has something to do with the type of what u attach it to.

The SPAR series got already fixed in the latest Dev Branch. Thanks for that, that's great!

I also created a ticket on feedback tracker: https://feedback.bistudio.com/T150898

Dear Developers, I have to report an issue that I recently found with a few iron sights of the weapons in the game. A few weeks ago I reported an issue with the Zafir's iron sights that the shots were going high all the time. I guess that the iron sight is not properly centered and therefore too low. The Zafir is actually not the only weapon having these issues, that cause the weapon to reliably miss their intended target on all ranges when zeroed correctly. This issue is not a problem at all if any sight item is used on the weapon. It is just the iron sight model that seems to be off. I found a way to highlight the issue using the laser attachment. The laser pretty much always points directle to the middle of the screen and the shot will pretty much perfectly hit the laser spot when zeroed correctly. So the sight should be exactly on the spot. Here is a list of weapons where the sight is severely off: MX - sight too low MXM - sight too low (but less than MX) Rahim - sight too low Sting 9mm - sight too low Zafir - sight too low Protector 9mm - sight too high SPAR16 - sight too high (and covers too much of the picture anyway for a tactical sight imho) SPAR17 - sight too high (and covers too much of the picture anyway for a tactical sight imho) This is an annoying issue since you practically can not rely on your weapons sights. Since this is kinda important in a combat situation this should be fixed. Please Developers, take the weapons to the table and fine tune the sights so they are on target. Thanks in advance David / Venator P.S.: Example pictuers of what it looks like I did test a lot of vanilla weapons. I may have overlooked some though. Some also dont have the ability to equip the laser for good pictures Most weapons seem to hit fine.

I thought this would be just like with SPAR-17 and Mk-I I do understand though that this is low priority. I just feel the game is entering a state where nothing severe is gonna be changed but some small tweaks and fixes are still gonna improve the experience.

Thanks for answering. I guess it would be a lot of work indeed to make it all compatible again. Can we maybe have proxy magazines for a few other weapons though? Weapons like Katiba, Rahim, CMR-76, Cyrus and MAR-10 should be doable without significant issues. Is there maybe also any way to make Mk-I or SPAR-17 work? I would love that.
