Had a crazy day on the 15th, had to go to the hospital.
9am Monday i was finishing up posting my update for my RDR2 mod on the Nexus (Bandit Hideouts btw), and i noticed this slight cramping
on my right side it felt like when you hold a shit in to long and you cramp, lol.
So i shut down my computer, and this somewhat pain started increasing over a period of 2hrs, was talking with my mom,
twice on the phone. The 2nd time i called her the cramping turned into pain, i threw up (puked) twice, almost fainted and
was almost rolling on the floor in agony, wtf is going on!?
So my mom said you better get yourself to the hospital and get whatever it is checked out, well since i had no ride,
though i could drive myself i dared not to considering i couldn't sit still, i was pacing around my apartment to take my mind of the pain.
So i called 911 that connected me to the local ambulance in my town and off i went. I get to the hospital get my blood taken, triage ect,.
they tell me to sit in the waiting room, this was at about 1pm so here i sat from 1pm til almost 4pm in pain and severe discomfort,
seriously WTF!
They finally call me, i get to a room they told me to wait in, it had a bed, so i sit down at the edge of the bed still hurting,
in about 10minutes the pain subsided, like it just vanished. What happened? Was it the change in seating? Hardly.
Well i sat in that room for 2hrs, so here 6pm rolls around, doctor comes in, says i need a CT Scan, so an hour after that i get one,
i ask the nurse if i can use the bathroom, so i do, i must have pissed my brains out for 5min i had to go so bad, lol
Well 7pm roles around another nurse comes in which was like 20min after i peed and says they need a urine sample, omg i just let everything out!
So she hooked up an iv with water, and basically i laid there for an hour and a half having this water feeding me so i can pee in a container in the room.
Well 8:30pm comes around i've peed in the container, and there i sit til 8:45 waiting, finally nurse comes back, grabs a sample, then i sit again.
9pm rolls around doctor comes in, new doctor not the one i seen the first time, says i had passed a few tiny kidney stones,
well the 1st doc already told me this as they seen it in the CT scan, but the urine sample was to check for any infections and there was none.
Half hour later they said i can go, nurse takes iv jack out and now i waited til 10pm for my ride.
Not one time did i get any pain medication or had it offered, i spent that entire time waiting in pain and discomfort, i could have saved the
headache if you will and stayed at home and save myself a ton of money, now i await the bill ... what will it be. Ya that was my Monday
over 12hrs of waiting in pain and then waiting, WTF!

For those terrain lovers, if your currently looking for terrains on my
All Arma 3 Terrains Compilation List
it will be hidden as i had just updated it with over 50+ new terrains, thing is
anytime i update the list the forum hides it for security and needs approval, so if you dont see it this is why.
I report the thread after updating it so hopefully soon it will be available again. Cheers!

Steam Workshop Type: Scenario
I had a thought cross my mind today and i had no idea that it works like this.
After responding to a couple of comments on my Steam workshop page for my scenario Drug Traffickers
i found out some players were playing the mission through Singleplayer ---> Scenarios tab through the main
menu and not through MP lan which i designed it for, because
it has respawn and parameters you can change.
The comments actually had me confused asking about the other units at the starting position, i then realized
they were playing the mission in SP, so the question crossed my mind on how does a mission you post to steam workshop
show listed in Singleplayer on the main menu under scenarios and Multiplayer anyways?
I had a hunch and discovered it, basically when you add the tags singleplayer and multiplayer steam actually puts
the scenario in those sections of the game, i feel so dumb but i had no idea that it would do that
i thought the tags were just that, tags, basically enabling search on the workshop, and also describing what type of
scenario it was. After all this time! 🙄

Guys, i just updated my All Terrains Compilation list
with new terrains but as im sure you may know by now that when the thread is updated
it goes hidden. Its been reported and waiting approval from the mods. Cheers!
-
Guys letting you all know that my All Arma 3 Terrains Compilation List which is
in the addons and mods complete part of the forum, that when i update the list, meaning adding new terrains
or whatever, that the list will go hidden.
I've had several pms in the past and recent from concerned members about my list being taken down, removed,
or just not there, its understandable but please understand that the forum hides the list anytime i update the list
i have this noted on the list itself.
The same thing happens with the script and addon and mods list of my Ai compilation list so just letting those who
use my lists or would be users about the situation with them. Any questions i suppose you can ask in reply to this
or send me a pm. Cheers!
-
Just to let all of you know whom have received a "chat" or message from me on discord, or steam, thats not me
apparently my steam account got hacked, as did one of my other friends from what i heard, thanks to Neoarmageddon whom is one of my
steam friends explained to me what happened and how to fix it, so i did and everything works again.
Cheers!

Ah Lobito! Thanks my friend ya we chatted briefly about it, thanks for understanding too, what a headache.
I actually lost a friend to it though as i had 16 friends that were blocked, seems this friend whom had an odd name with
dashes and other characters falls short of my memory even though we chatted on occasion, im saddened that im unable to locate him
to clear up the misunderstand has i had done with another friend whom was also blocked and somehow befriended.
All i can do is wait, and im terribly sorry this bot or whatever it was had messaged almost everyone on my list, i got the situation sorted with all my friends
majority of them knew it wasn't me as i dont use the word "bro" or "brah" 🙄 in my sentences, maybe dude but not those, anyways again thanks for the understanding. Cheers!
-
Real problem started when i clicked on a link to a website and logged in with steam there, other then that in my 15yrs on steam never had such issue,
but i thought it was an actual friend on my steam list that sent me a chat to help them about CSO, apparently i wasn't the only one whom got the same exact message with the same website link. But ya i agree a good PW helps, will keep it in mind.

Would like to share something with the community here since im here alot, home away from home so to speak.
As some of you whom come to know me through pm talks and maybe through steam chat, i work a 3rd shift, full time job a night (9pm-6-9am)
well i normally go to bed about 12noon everyday, wake up about 7:30pm to leave by 8pm and start at 9pm, anyways last night (12th) i get up turn on my phone as usual (i have a flip phone), and as im getting dressed for work, i get 2 text messages from my mother who lives in Florida with my dad, im in Illinois USA btw.
Anyways the first text says "Grandpa isn't doing so well, and aunt and uncle are there along with grandma" that was at 12:30pm about 30min after i went to bed , then the 2nd text she sent was at about 1:09pm saying "grandpa has passed" 😭.... Well that just devastated me.
My grandparents live in Ontario Canada. at the top of the peninsula off the Georgian Bay, they have lived there since the 1950's, they've been farmers for like 50yrs or something, but they retired like in 2000 i think and were living in a house across from the farm and my uncle took over the farm. My grandparents are from Holland from friesland and lived through the occupation of the Germans during WW2, crazy shit btw. For the past 6yrs i think they have been in a retirement home as both my grandparents health deteriorated my grandpa is 93, and my grandma is 91, they live in like a condo type place that has a nurse staff to watch over them.
Well for the past 2 yrs, i would call them once a month to see how they are doing, my grandma in better shape then my grandpa and my grandpa has had triple bypass like 10yrs ago and was doing fine for a while, but in the past couple of years things just got worse, so he would have heart issues, and fluid would collect in his lungs, and almost everyday they would have to drain it. Well last night apparently he passed from it.
As i drove to work i literally started crying thinking about it, by the time i got to work i was all choked up and trying to hold back my tears,
i was more torn about it at work then while on the road, it was hard for me to keep a straight face, no one knew what had happened, i only told the guy i work with and i broke my face and started crying, i couldn't help it.
So for like 4 hours the tears would come and go, i would get so choked up, i thought i had to go home because i couldn't hold myself together but i persevered and got through the night, im still sad and still feel like crying i couldn't handle it at work though, i never felt like that before.
Thing is this is very personal to me because for my first 5yrs of my life, my mother left for nursing school, and left me with her parents on the farm,
so my grandparents, raised me for those 4-5 first years, my grandpa was literally my father as my real father... well never met him so im not going to go there.
I was considered a youngest brother out of 8 uncles, and 3 aunts and my mother being the oldest, anyways before i give you my whole life story lol
just thought i'd share something that was sad and very dear to me that happened last night. Cheers!

Thanks DOA.
This past thursday there was a live stream on Utube of the church service which my grandparent were members of that
church even when i was living with them, seeing that place on screen was rather moving, some of my uncles and aunts were there too, some drove
from Alberta for the service. As for the burial not something i can make because of no passport and well border restrictions.
-
This is bit of a late reply to this status update, but i wanted to add something to it i though was quite profound
when i learned about it. I'm not a church goer by any means but i respect my grandparents wishes and beliefs
as they were raised and lived by it.
What i wanted to add was, my grandparents and my grandma still to this day
have been going to the same church since the church was founded back in the 1950's, from what i learned some months ago
i think it was, my grandpa was one of the founding members of that church among a few others rather amazing tbh, i mean
its nothing really crazy but it just goes to show how old people really are.

Another thing is during the time when the funeral for him was being setup, apparently in the past years he wrote a small
novel like a biography of his entire life, so the family had made a small book out of it and published like a hundred copies or something
i received one in the mail from my aunt who lives in the former house of my grandparents, i have to say .... what an amazing heartfelt read
this guy, the amount of things, places, people, and things he did, the amount of work this guy did and the experiences
was profound.
I'll take a little clip or piece from what he said in his book:
Quote" In the years that Germany occupied Holland (1940 -1945), every boy and man over the age of 16 years, had to go to work
in Germany unless you had a special permit not to go. We all had to have identity cards, which showed your birth date and
other particulars including a photo. When i turned 16, my parents had my identity card changed to make it look like i was 15 years old instead of 16,
because all the boys 16 years and older had to go to Germany to work. Later on when the change was processed, i was sent to the police station
for a new one which said i was 15. The policeman i talked to was a good one, and we got away with it.
(next page over)
In Holland in those days, all the boys 18 years old had to train as soldiers, first we had to undergo a health and aptitude test,
to see what we were suitable for .They discovered that i had high blood pressure problems, and because of that i did not have
to become a soldier, that is when i started thinking about emigrating.
(next page over)
By the 27th of April 1948, we were ready to sail for Canada. In order to cross the Atlantic Ocean to Canada by boat the coast
was around $400.00 in those days, then it took 12 days to get to Quebec city. "
He goes into details about the boat trip and then once landed where he went from there, but he settled in owen Sound Ontario.
After that, theres like 15-20 more pages!
Thought i would share. Cheers!

Got home from work today about 8am, as some of you know i work a 3rd shift.
All night long i've had a slight tooth ache, about halfway through the night i got two aspirin from my supervisor, so that knocked out the pain for almost 3hrs, then
it started up again towards the end of the night, guy i work with had some aspirin in his car, so took that before i left for home, worked.... for an hour.
I get home 8am, i get to bed ended up tossing and turning til 11am, from there til 3pm i tried everything under the sun til take this pain away i was in agony, finally
got hold of a dentist on his emergency number, he told me to take a certain type of aspirin and then he sent a prescription order for antibiotics to a local pharmacist by me.
I go there get everything, take them, lie down pain subsides after about an hour, so i go back to bed its now like 7pm sat, i actually fall
asleep as im so tired, been up since 8pm the previous day, tossed and turned but felt like i slept, woke up 3hrs later and here i type this, my left bottom gumline is inflamed,
i got an ice pack on it, already taken another aspirin and antibiotic which is taking its dam time to do anything.
The irritation and pressure are driving me mad, hard to even concentrate, ya i should go to the dentist, problem is their all closed and dont open up til monday, i already have an
appointment to get my tooth pulled, im actually looking forward to it, i had so much planned, and to do for this weekend, and so far i spent almost half of it in pain
and without sleep, now that im up i cant get back to sleep, wtf, thats my weekend so far.

That sucks, toothache imo is one of the worst pains you can deal with.
I been doing garlic on and off, its a nightmare to do but then when your done with it, you have no pain and less swelling,
it only lasts a few hours, so i get a few hours of sanity back. Very little sleep this weekend, mostly tossing and turning, i plan to call into work Monday after i get my
tooth yanked, as i have 1 embedded in my gum which is the other half of a former tooth, one next to it has a small hole so i should be able to save it.
-
Heres the situation, went to the dentist little after 7am this morning, was there for about 2hrs, did some paperwork, and 1 xray, told me the
teeth had to come out because they are both infected. The whole tooth extraction took about 2 minutes!
They got the broken tooth out, and the one next to it which had a hole in it, they had to sucher the gums because of the hole and bleeding i had,
so im sitting here with a numbed cheek, no pain, and gauze in my mouth.
Insurance covered 80% of the fee, only cost me $171 i get my insurance through work.
I got an appointment to go back in 2 weeks for a checkup to see how im doing. About it everything worked out, just waiting for the numbness to subside,and the remaining swelling to go away, but no more pain all is good now. 😌
Well that was my weekend, couldn't record any new tutorials like i wanted so will be doing that this week, and my new project 😉
-

-
Lol trip is over man, i went at the end of May, thanks anyways.
I actually worked tho, my brother, my dad and myself worked on my brother's 2 decks, we worked from sun up to sun down, about 14-16hr days for a week

My brother finished the rest of it.

Haven't written on here in a while,
last time i said something was about the situation with my truck how it broke down on the way to work, rather died on me,
was a 1997 Chevy S10 owned it for 18yrs.
Well End of October i bought a car from my neighbor 2 buildings over from me as i live in an apartment, this guy is in his 60's, and retired, he has 3 cars,
one of which i bought his oldest which was a 1995 Ford Taurus, body is in mint condition, no rust, interior is pristine, just about new everything, 65,000 miles on it
the guy babied it, and is original owner aside his father whom bought it when the car first came out, but passed away some months after.
Well bought the car for $1200, it drove fine, no issues, all i put into it was oil change, gas, and a car wash, as soon as it got cold transmission started
acting up, it got worse to the point where it wouldn't go past 40mph so it wont shift into 4th gear. Now December about 2 weeks ago now, on the way home from work,
i got half way home, stopped at a store picked up a couple things i needed (food), go to leave, turn onto the main road and my steering locks up, wtf...
Pulled into a parking lot next to me, had to call for a tow as you couldn't steer the car, got it towed back home.
Had a mechanic come out and look at it, says rack and pinion went out, and is jammed, no leaks, another issue we discovered is the engine cradle is badly
rusted, so now it becomes a safety issue, another wtf.
So here i am for almost 2 weeks getting a ride to work, lucky from a guy i work with and for 8yrs at that,
anyways my mother sends me a chat message on skype on Christmas day and tells me to call my dad on his cell phone as she has
to work and he has off, so i call, talk to my dad he knows about my car situation, so he says he found a car that hes going to buy me,
only has 113,000 miles on it, had only one owner, and was used only by a government agency which kept up on the maintenance.
Hes going to take it to a shop and get it checked out, with another mechanic as he used to work on cars himself, clean it up, ect,.
and drive it up to where i live which is like a few states north of him as he lives in Florida, im in Illinois.
So this will happen right after new years, well hearing this i was austruck, and surprised as first i was going to ask him how i can pay him back
and he said dont worry about it, he says just focus on your debt you been working on, and getting ahead.
So i got to say my new years will start off to a great start, im going to have to salvage the other car because you cant drive it, pay off the
little remaining of my debt i have, and this new year i have some big compiling projects i been wanting to do for the arma3 community but been stressed
out and bogged down with real life bullshit, like debt and car troubles since August, as well as alot of overtime at work 10-12+hrs a night to be exact as
we are in the busy season, the money helps but trying to do projects for arma when your tired, your not going to get to far or at all.
I wish i can do my projects full time, as im getting sick of my job, been at it for 8yrs working 9pm to 7am 3rd shift schedule, i hope the new year will bring
me some new ideas to get out of my job too as i'd rather work for myself online then killing myself at a job which takes most of your energy.
Anyways about all i have to say, figured i share. Cheers!

Hey guys a new tutorial video i created.
After viewing a few videos on the subject i found them not very efficient, or professional if you will, lacking details,
and somewhat sloppy on how they presented the information, so i created my own.
As simple as the information in the video it is, presentation is a matter of writing a script, so the information
you are presenting is organized and accurate. Then after recording, editing the video took the longest i spent over 8hrs
on it to add the right comments at the right points, and implement subtle music too as to not distract the view from the information.
Also is a written guide in the video's description with time stamps for the steps and some important points.
More tutorials to come!

I think I can finally spend some time on this process. It's amazing how much life gets in the way of having fun.
I downloaded the .rpt file from the server so I could try and figure out what the problem is. Unfortunately I'm not well versed in reading it, but there are some things that stand out.
I didn't set up an intro as I didn't think it was actually needed.
This is the first thing I noticed:
16:17:01 SteamAPI initialization failed. Steam features won't be accessible! 16:17:02 Cannot register unknown string STR_3DEN_CAMERA_NAME
16:17:02 Cannot register unknown string STR_DIFF_SCENE_ONLY
16:17:02 Cannot register unknown string STR_DIFF_SCENE_AND_MAP
I'm assuming (I should know better then to do that) that the following refers to updating mods I've uploaded to the server my friends and I rent.
16:17:32 unable to load subscribed content list. list will be updated from steam
16:17:32 unable to load published content list. list will be updated from steam
16:17:32 unable to load cached items meta info. save and update functionality will be broken
2:17:41 Missing addons detected:
2:17:41 rhsusf_c_troops
2:17:41 CUP_WheeledVehicles_UAZ
2:17:41 Desert
2:17:41 Warning Message: You cannot play/edit this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted.rhsusf_c_troops, CUP_WheeledVehicles_UAZ, Desert
2:17:41 Mission More%20Practice%20mission.Altis: Missing 'description.ext::Header'
I thought I was careful in not using any addons/mods in this mission, but I was wrong.
I think the only way I can be sure to make a vanilla mission is to uninstall and then reinstall Arma 3 without and mods.
-
Your missing the following:
- rhsusf_c_troops = RHSUSF (you need to have this running to play the mission)
- CUP_WheeledVehicles_UAZ - (CUP Vehicles)
- Desert - (Cup Terrains)
QuoteI think the only way I can be sure to make a vanilla mission is to uninstall and then reinstall Arma 3 without and mods.
Thats overkill you dont need to do that, its not a game issue, you'll still get the same errors if you load the same mission up without those mods.
your issue is not loading mods that the mission needs, and they are RHSUSF, CUP Vehicles, and CUp terrains.
or edit the mission.sqm and remove those three dependencies and all should work.
Its pretty simple, dont overthink it, just load the mods, or edit the mission.sqm unless you binerized it.

Past few days have been hectic for me, this past Thursday night on the way to work (i work 3rd shift 9-6am) im on the highway going
about 65 mph and about 15min from work, all a sudden my truck (Chevy S10, 2 door, extended cab, 4 cylinder pickup) lol stalled on me,
so i pulled it to the shoulder 2 lanes over, let it come to a stop on its own.
Put my hazards on and tried to start it, wouldn't start, so i called the guy i work with who was on the way as he starts an hour later then me,
he picked me up, and when i was on break i called my insurance whom i get roadside assistance from, i had my truck towed to a mechanic shop
i go to, and after i got home Friday morning i called the shop, they inspected the truck, told me the timing chain is broke, engine would have to come out,
then too theres no guarantee that just fixing that would solve the issue.
So i told them no, thing is i've had my truck for 18yrs ;) the mechanic said that for the amount of time you got out of the vehicle,
you far exceeded your money's worth for it, and especially for a 4 cylinder.
Well long story short, i had the truck towed back home, and there it sits, cant start it, its dead in the water as they say, so im currently looking to get
a cheap used car to just get around for now til i save up some more money and can afford something better.
This was kinda of a reality check for me, but i sit here typing this and dont really feel bothered about it, i mean i love my truck, i miss it already but i
guess its telling me time to move on and get something newer and better. In the past i would be all stressed out, worried, nervous, but i guess growing up is a good thing,
i sound sorta of retarded when i say that but, i guess you can say its been 18yrs of the same thing for me so its a new situation.
Anyways thought i'd share with my favorite community :)

Glad to here you found another truck. I always figured it's the mileage that counts, and of course the amount of abuse it gets. Hope you're able to get it. I've now got another truck and it certainly comes in handy although I'm considering getting a bumper sticker that states, "Yes I have a Truck, No I won't help you move" .
I've been spending time now trying to use the eden editor and create a mission for my friends and I. there's a learning curve and the I've been trying to control the AI with the waypoints which don't really seem to work very well. If I put down a waypoint that's tells them to hold aren't they suppose to stay there? And when I a squad has orders to only fire when fired upon and stay in formation they shoot first anyway. It seems like the AI uses these commands as more of suggestions lol.
-
That was when i first started looking the guy with the truck didn't respond, since then i've looked at alot of ads for cars on craigslist, dealerships ect,. so no car yet, but i contacted a guy about a Nissan Ultima he has for sale for $1,000 as i need a vehicle, getting a ride to work everyday sucks, im limited, but contacted this guy who is close to where i live, and will see where it goes.
Getting a truck is out the window for me now, as much as i prefer it, i'd rather have my own ride then get a ride from someone.
My whole focus these past 2 weeks has been nothing but looking for a vehicle, i havent really played anything, worked on any projects because my mind is zoned in on getting a vehicle which is a real life priority. Other then adding more vids to my couple of utube channels, i've yet to record and work on a vid for my main channel but hopefully this guy i contacted this morning about this car responds to me, i can buy it without being in debt, and move on with my life.
Btw i had preordered Post Scriptum when it came out in Alpha, now beta i'm yet to try it out and get into it, i actually find it hard to get into other games unlike Arma, Arma will always and is my main game, i feel so loyal to it but i suppose being in it since the series started would do that to you, theres so much to do in it i love it.
As for the AI refer to my AI compilation list, i have guides, and all sorts of things there that can help you with AI related stuff.

Just some news on where im at with my vehicle situation, past couple of weeks my neighbor downstairs from me as i live in a 6 flat,
lent me his Honda civic he dont use, so i been driving that.
Now previously before that i got a ride from a guy i know a couple buildings over from me to a dealership where i was possibly going to buy a car, so went there,
looked at the car, test drove it, but it had some small issues, turn signals did not work, front hood wouldn't latch ect,. Dealer wanted a $1,000 for it.
Now when the guy that drove me heard what was being offered for it he said, man if i could get a $1,000 for my old car i'd be happy, and i was like what do you have?
He says hes got a 1995 For Taurus 6 cylinder, front wheel drive, with 65,000 miles on it, hes original owner, all his own miles, and he dont drive it because he has 2 other vehicles already
and where he lives he cant have 3 cars limit is 2, plus he just bought a new car and the dealer he bought his new car from is storing the Taurus til he can sell it.
So i said to him lets check it out, so we went to the dealer where the car was and looked at it, he said he maintained it and did alot of other things to it,
so the car is practically brand new, new paint job, battery, struts, brakes, tires, its clean, no rust, and only 65,000 miles on it, never been in an accident,
and i said i would take it, so hes happy.
Thing is he dont have the title for it because a month back he got robbed, so his truck, and this car's title both were stolen that he had in a safe,
so he sent out for duplicates and thats what we are waiting for is the title, and from what he told me yesterday it should be any time now.

This was a test I was doing with my IFA3WarModSA to see how it would respond with latest version of Arma3 and IFA3 Lite:
