    No Engine sounds from vehicles

    Yikes, haha you dont need to say sorry for a thing! If I had stuck to my path and tried each mod, I'd of not spun myself around in assumption. My tiny amount of troubleshooting time pales in comparison to the amount of hard work you do for this community... hell I felt bad for even finding out what it was lol. You jumped on it, fixed it asap and had a work around on the spot so cheers to you dude!
  3. I uninstalled JSRS about a week ago. I love his mod but let me cut to the chase... I was cutting out all the mods besides CBA, TPW and RAVAGE just to troubleshoot some performance issues. I decided I'd stick with a thin mod list for a bit and played a LOT for the past week, made new missions and so on with just TPW and RAVAGE, was running great! No JSRS, even played a few total vanilla missions with no mods... no problems. Then today I updated TPW Mods and updated Ravage. I loaded into the game and jumped into a mission I had made yesterday ( a week AFTER uninstalling JSRS) and some JSRS "distant sound attenuation" error pops up and none of my ground vehicles ( well the ones I checked) make any engine noise. So I uninstalled every mod and did a verify files on the game...loaded it up pure vanilla and still an issue. Tried the JSRS dependency fix, still no engine sounds. I uninstalled ARMA 3 and deleted what was left in the steam...common, arma 3 folder and that folder itself. I then moved the Steam games directory to my M.2 drive and downloaded/ reinstalled ARMA 3 there. Fresh new install, fire it up and some friggin how the game still errors on a JSRS distant sound attenuation thing... slightly frustrated lol HALP hahah "No entry'bin\config.bin/CfgDistanceFilter.jsrs_vehicle_interior_attenuation_filter'." UPDATE: TPW Mufflers was the culprit... well I was the culprit for not paying attention and being systematic in my process of elimination haha
  4. TPW, no worries man. It was, in all honesty a good thing, I needed to weed the install out anyway. Turned out for the better, games humming along at 80 FPS on this faster drive and with out all the bloat. Just Vanilla ARMA3, TPW and Ravage for me for a while 😃 Edit for a suggestion if I may. I've always liked tpw hud for my near future settings and I'm kind of digging the simplified version right now but those dots... they are really bright! Any way to adjust their transparency / brightness? They do not seem to be effected by the adjustments in the hpp.
  5. Holy cow.. I just spent last night and 3 hours this morning trying to figure out why my ground vehicles have no sound lol. I did a complete wipe of my arma install, re downloaded it to another drive, nuked my user profi folders, unsubbed from all the workshop stuff, nuked it all and began fresh and STILL had a "No entry'bin\config.bin/CfgDistanceFilter.jsrs_vehicle_interior_attenuation_filter'." Error...I was freaking out! Muffler pbo, here I come!

    Exactly ArteyFlow! Good times. I love TPW stuff, it adds a lot of life to the empty Arma world IMO...and can spice things up if you so choose. Zombies will attack the ambient Civs...hell IIRC they attack the dogs.. I never liked that... maybe that was Ryans zeds??

    Ravage

    I had world war 3 on a map this morning! I have been hunting some bug in game that's bothered me for years now, when I fly a Heli, the game will randomly crash, sometimes 5 minutes in...sometimes 3 hours in. So I unloaded all my mods - again- except for CBA, Ravage, TPW Mods, Achilles and the other Eden editor thingy. I set down Ravage AI, Surv, Settings, Zeds, Etc... 4am mission time blah blah and fired it up. Well I had forgot I had TPW Skirmish set to "on" with OP, IND and BLUFOR units, multiple squads, hasty troubleshooting pays sometimes. I Jump in a Kajman ( had no idea what was about to unfold) and fly myself towards this town and all hell is breaking loose, it was the coolest shit I've ever seen in the game! There was tracer fire streaming all over the place and I'm seeing Blufor engage Raiders and some damn CSAT team is getting rushed by zombies. 50 Cal fire from one technical shooting at another technical 500 meters across town, RPG hits a van full of Syndicate... I'm trying to land and get in on this action but the place is lit up, fluid and very kinetic haha. I died about 3 meters from my Heli... took some heavy AA to the bird on my way down and I think a cook off secondary got me while I was crawling away, fuck you ZEDS! I can't wait to get home and try it with some time on my hands to enjoy it! I've done this -often- on purpose before but not with the unit numbers set as high for each mod and I also probably used to have 20+ gear mods on, ranging from RHS to SMA, Friths, Warfare Thai...you name it, I ran it and 10 maps, all CUPs loaded...jesus.... No AI stuff though. Game didn't crash but that's not conclusive nor points me to the culprit mod. I will say I was surprised at the frame rates, I didn't have the read out on screen but you know when Arma is running good, the animations look so much better, everything does. So yeah, looks like I'm going full vanilla ( well Ravage and TPW stay, I wont play Arma with out em ) if this is the action and performance I can get.

    Ravage

    Yeah MuRaZor, I really wasn't sure how complex it all could b. I, at its root, thought it'd be an additional inv loot item that some OPFOR would have on them at random like the current loot pool works. ...but making it do additional things ( task gen ) upon collecting of X amount, well that's into another can of worms entirely haha. If it's a PITA then too hell with it but it seemed like a potentially cool additional element to have.

    Right on Haleks, glad you have a path out of that hardware mess! I've been running my EXOTAC Jager Ops in a 2038, Chongo, Angola setting. That means I have been playing SP with an AI team, hunting Raiders and Renegades. I've always thought it'd be cool to have a very light weight type of task gen system while running around in my sandbox survival hell zone using RAVAGE. Deleted because I talk a lot... Ok this could be pages long if I tried to explain the way I play ARMA but RAVAGE is in every mission I do. BUT, what if... There was some layer of intel gathering? Like random Raiders have a chance to have a Top Secret document or file folder on them upon death or maybe a vile / sample of something evil. Something like that could go in many directions, if possible. Examples: 1. Find X amount of Intel Documents get a big pay off. So basically nothing happens..it's for roleplay... but some in-game acknowledgement, pop up, audio or whatever. 2. Find X amount and a Task appears to meet up with an intel Operative to drop off the information. Oooh a little objective action in my survival sandbox, I like it 😃 3. If making it spawn a NPC to complete the above mentioned task is a royal pain in the ass...just a dead drop at some way off random location. 4. It doesn't end your mission ( omg I'd be pissed lol) 5. Configurable maybe? Edit amounts to collect, type to collect ie, Samples, docs etc... Who drops them, chances to drop and any other fun stuff The list could go on and on but I'm at the office and really just wanted to have all of you Ravagers chip in , expand OR laugh and tell me I'm crazy haha, no worries! Hell take the configurable bits a step further and replace the docs with ID's or Dogtags and now the Milsim nuts could even use it...Return the Dogtags of your fallen comrades and collect IDs from enemy combatants.
  10. For skirmish to use armor, I see the entry in the HPP but I'm not sure what "custom string" means? I tried the - IDK wtf Im doing - route and entered some T55a and BRP armor classnames from Global Mobilization but I'm sure I didn't do it right as I don't see nothing but the technicals they always used. Sorry for the duh question, anyone who can point me in the right direction, much appreciated 😃 EDIT: Ok, I see after reading around here, I'll need to enter a zero -for user specified- on the enemy type... I was leaving that to -7 and resist type to -8 hoping the custom vehicle string entries would just magically make those factions use the vehicles I specified, not the case. looks like I need to think this over a bit more, I don't want to lose the default two factions, they are set perfectly as is for the map I'm on, I simply wanted them to show up with an old tank from time to time haha.

    Ravage

    That bike pic and Razors reply, lmao. Here I am playing Ravage with MBTs, APCs and a squad of 17 AI lol.

    Ravage

    Sounds like you're on the right track but a confirmation check with another card would be good... problem is those checks are best done with "Known good" hardware but yours is an older unknown... makes things interesting or hair pulling depending on your frame of mind 😃 Keep us posted, I can swing some cash if you find the culprit.

    Leave your Patreon alone, I'm sure everyone on there will be just fine not seeing and update for X time while you get your PC sorted. Check that other GC... In all my years I've never seen, first hand, a GC take down a healthy mobo and PSU

    Arma 3 Aegis

    Didn't the CRV Bobcat previously have basic vehicle repair abilities or am I day dreaming? I had one in a convoy and my Hunter lead took some damage so I was trying to drive the truck around the different sides of the CRV lmao in a fire fight screaming "omg repair repair"... we all died hahah. No biggy, I can use another repair vehicle but the CRV was a cool tracked option IMO. Good stuff with Aegis, looks like a hefty update too, very nice! Oh and it would be sweet if it could seat a 4th person, the Field Engineer, disembarks and assists in tasks outside of the crews duties. 😃
  15. @icebreakr FYI and not a big deal, the stadium located by Elsaville, the center / inner structure geometry is not making contact with the ground, sort of floating it seems. Man I'm having a load of fun on this map! Oh and the fire station there...has a house inside of it haha, that was fun getting around in!

    Hahaaa, Fuzzy little buggers are out to git you EO! I hear that if you consume the meat... you turn into a rabbit 0_o

    Ravage

    @Vandeanson Haah, yes good idea! Hell, give me a check box that just says "Yes" and make a random timer run in the back ground lol, so I have no idea when or even if it will happen, now we are treading into scary land.
  18. Hi TPW, I had or I should say, have an idea... Would it be possible to add an Armor units option to TPW Skirmish? The random encounter nature of TPW Skirmish makes it a must use when I want to go out on extended patrols in my survival sandbox. My version of survival isn't conventional by any stretch, I use a geared up / Hi - End AI squad and I roll around acting as a combat rescue Team in some cliche post apoc style scenario. Here is where armor units using skirmish comes in; the new DLC map and my new hair brained idea of using a Mi-48 Kajman to fly around and rescue survivors while raising hell and blowing up armor. Note about the use of the word "My"... means I'm using Ravage but with out the zombies someimes. Your Skirmish ( and the entire TPW list ) coupled with Haleks Ravage modules make for some kickass situations. It's been some time since I've read your reasonings about the set up that skirmish uses so I apologize now if I'm over reaching or asking for something that's a crazy bad idea.

    Ravage

    Haleks, can you make a Ravage version for EO that replaces the Zeds with rabbits that attack him? Kidding of course Ok, I'm actually laughing but I'm easily entertained. Call it RABBAGE
  20. Oh man this mod will add some cool situations and capabilities to my "Last Stand" Ravage scenarios where I go in with a AI squad and try to save Civs and EXFIL survivors I find. Hell even my Jager Ravage scenarios with out Zeds would seriously benefit from this! Yes SAD would be sweet, seeing a bird loitering over head doing damage, haha I love it!

    Ravage

    Mmmm Hasenpfeffer! I swear I saw rabbits on that map... buut maybe not, Hmm you know I am running TPW. Would TPW mod spawn stuff like that no matter what map you are on?
  22. Zakuaz

    Kujari

    So this looks very well done! I have too many new - badass - top notch -- maps to mess around on now, I don't know where to begin!?

    Ravage

    I just picked up the DLC, cant wait to do some Ravage Jager ops on that map! If Ravage isn't spawning loot on the new map I'll just place some survival boxes from the editor and fight my to them if needed but I get 95% of my loot from killing raiders and renegades. If the Ravage system isn't even spawning NPCs you could place the game logic locations all over the place... IIRC
  24. New stuff for my sandbox and a new map to do it on, SOLD! Looks amazing and I can't wait to get home and check it out.
  25. Your maps fun as hell and very inspirational...I DID IT, the sleeping pill and the laxative, Bucket List - Check!
