    As I've written before: Download the A3 linux server bins via steamcmd directly to your server. It depends on your target OS (=where the steam client is running), whether you will get the Windows or Linux binaries. So I don't think that there is a way to get the linux bins with the Windows Steam client.

    @gagagu: No, you don't have to run the steam client on your server to be able to start the A3 server bins. I adapted the start/stop script that came with the A2 server bins, works perfectly.

    Here are my first general impressions: Yes, it works :) but there is still plenty room for improvement especially regarding performance and stability.

    Performance: I ran the Windows arma3server.exe through WINE before and contrary to my expectations that was quite a performant setup. On a small custom TvT on Altis the server used about 800MB memory and had about 50fps server-side. On another COOP mission of mine (Stratis) the server consumed up to 1GB and had between 35 and 45 fps server-side throughout the game.

    With the Linux server bins the TvT mission now consumes 1.1GB with 30fps and the COOP mission uses 900MB but with only 5-7fps. :confused:

    Loading missions for the first time also takes ages to finish.

    When the server is idling it uses much more memory and CPU cycles than it did with WINE. Sometimes when ending missions, the server sticks to about 90% CPU usage and needs to be killed manually.

    Stability: I experienced some crashes while playing the COOP mission, but couldn't track the reason down (yet).

    I've found the problem with the custom missions not working. running an strace on the server shows it's looking for MPMissions/ not mpmissions <= linux being case sensitive etc :). testing if it works by symlinking the mpmissions to MPMissions in the server folder.

    FIX confirmed.

    Either rename your mpmissions to MPMissions or symlink it :)

    Huge thanks!! After "tolower'ing" all the years, I would'nt have thought that the Linux server bin finally can handle upper-case file and foldernames :D

    The next problem is that it does not detect the mpmissions folder.

    Unfortunately not, Im struggling with the same problem.

    I ran tolower, I checked the file and folder permissions and I even started the server as root. No success.

    But at least the "builtin" missions work properly.

    When BattlEye is enabled, clients get kicked immediately.

    I can't confirm that.

    At my installation it's the verifySignatures = 2; variable, which immediately kicks me off my server.

    Setting this variable to 0 lets me joining my server w/o any problems. Nevertheless I can't choose any of the mission I've uploaded to the servers mpmissions directory (they're not even displayed in the mission selection screen).

    When getting kicked off, I get this imho slightly weird error message as well on screen as in my .rpt file:

    Warning Message: Files "I:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Arma 3\dta\bin.pbo", "I:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Arma 3\dta\core.pbo", "I:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Arma 3\dta\languagecore_f.pbo", "I:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Arma 3\addons\a3.pbo", "I:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Arma 3\addons\air_f.pbo", "I:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Arma 3\addons\air_f_beta.pbo", ... are not signed by a key accepted by this server. To play on this server, remove listed files or install additional accepted keys.

    As a next step, i exchanged the a3.bikey from the server keys\ folder with the file from my game directory. Same outcome, same error message.

    Anyone got some ideas?

    And second, I just wanted to ask if you installed that sound- mod for HiP on the server by now??

    As I said to Petersen before, the DaOarges- server kicked me right away because of corrupted data when having it turned on.

    I just uploaded the key to the server, sorry it took a bit.

    Please let me know, if you still experience troubles!

    I'm in! I love that mission, tired of playing by myself though :P

    Cool, any specific slot you want to play?

    Quick question: Would it be possible to put in a Japanese transport plane?

    Do you mean for supply drops?

    But you need to talk to Foxy, as this is his mission.

    Hi,

    I tested the older version of your script on a dedicated server and it didnt work according to plan in terms that i wasnt sent to jail for killing BLUFOR soldiers.

    (regardless whether i used an M16 or a vehicle/chopper mounted weapon).

    I havent tried your new version yet, but i will post you some feedback once i did.

    Concerning the respawn limit: I know that there is no 100% method to keep players from playing through reconnecting. I was just wondering if your script includes such an option.

    Anyway, thanks for your work i will keep you updated, how i proceed.

    I've got the new version (including beta) setup successfully so far, but it seems i now have an issue with my custom SU repo:

    I changed the server.yml through SixUpdater according to the new needs (cba_co instead of cba, cba_oa and cba_a2), commited and pushed the changes to my webserver.

    But when i create a new preset based upon this server.yml, i also get the "old" cba stuff configured into that preset, although the required mods section looks like this:

    :required_mods:

    - "@CBA_CO"

    - "@Pacific"

    I didnt worry at first and gave it a try, but unfortunately i then get a CBA version mismatch error once i start a mission - with the clientversion being lower than the serverside version of cba.

    My servermodline looks like this: -beta=expansion/beta;expansion/beta/expansion -mod=@cba_co;@pacific

    Betaversion is 1.62.101480 on both client & server.

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,

    DO

    EDIT: When i start the game with just cba_co enabled clientside, i dont get any error at all and everything seems to work fine.

    Objectively - congrats on your new product. Based on what you've done with ArmA already it's bound to be amazing. Subjectively - finish my game first. A3 could have been amazing...

    +1

    I really hope A3 wont suffer from "lack of development ressources" (keyword: Linuxserver for A2 1.62), it was already pita enough until A2 was stable and with good performance.

    Thanks a lot for this awesome mod!

    I've played around with it a little and i came across the following:

    After engaging the drive lock (spade system) and executing a firemission. i was able to disengage the drive lock, but the fuel level stayed at zero.

    Is this a bug or desired behaviour?

    And thanks a lot for the detailled manual - awesome (i think, i start to repeat myself :))

    regards,

    DO

    PS: I have to admit, that i havent read the whole thread - so if this has been mentioned before, plz just provide me with a link.

    PSS: Is there a release with woodland camo planned?

    Situation:

    Tensions grew over the last few weeks when suicide bombers started to attack USMC bases on a more frequent basis again.

    Since strengthen security measures didnt bring the success needed, were gonna retaliate these attacks and kill the commander of the local resistance forces Oleg Kabashivno, the mayor of Kamyshovo.

    Kabashivno will on the way back home from a wedding in Kamyshovo. You can expect, that he will be heavily guarded. So prepare an ambush at 123096 (marked as ambush area on map) and dont let anyone escape!

    Then get back to FOB Texas as quick as possible.

    Detailled briefing can be found here.

    I would like to use Monsada's UPSMON with F2, but I can't seem to integrate it correctly...

    On the UPSMON manual it says to install

    //Init UPSMON scritp
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "scripts\Init_UPSMON.sqf";

    in the init.sqf. I added this at the top of the F2 init.sqf but I keep getting errors...

    Can anyone help me put this line in the right place?

    I just call this command serverside and it works fine for me:

    if (isServer) then

    {

    call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "scripts\Init_UPSMON.sqf";

    };

    But posting your error messages would be very helpful :)
