  1. Hello,

    how to enable Squad Radar in ArmA 3 1.62 (Apex DLC bought and downloaded). I don't see it on my screen, I cannot find the option to enable it in Settings/Difficulties? Was it removed from 1.62? 

     

    I have checked my A3 installation and Steam says it is okay.

     

    BR,

    s.


  2. An small update regarding the M4 Block II's and the Mk18's.

    Soul Assassin has done an amazing job updating the DD (RIS) II rails with new accurate models to replace the older models used from the RHARD Mk18 pack.

    They will come in the standard Black and Brown versions as well as Desert painted and something more fitting to everyone's upcoming island holiday...

     

     

    I have overlooked it! Amazing! Are you going to paint HK416 too? :D


  3. Creating a box is Eden is the simplest thing ever. Place down a box. Expand equipment storage. Click + to add however many of whatever you want. Not Scripts needed. Certainly no Python conversions.

    Did that not work for you?

     

    To be frank... no. As long as I agree that this box editor is huge step forward for ArmA (as well as Arsenal and EDEN as a whole) I am used to work with my set of weapons/items/mags. I have collected their classnames in csv file. When I want to add certain number of given weapon then I edit the file and convert it with Python converter. CSV file looks like this:

                      Weapons			
    On list:	Classnames:	        Type:	Number:
    N	rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII	        W	4
    N	rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII_M203	W	4
    N	rhs_weap_mk18	                W	4

    It is much easier and faster for me :)


  4. You can't just make up your own data format and expect Arma to be able to use it. The correct format looks pretty self evident though:

    value="
    [
     [
      [
       [<weaponClasses>],
       [<numbersOfWeapons>]
      ],
      [
       [<magazineClasses>],
       [<numbersOfMagazines>]
      ],
       [
        [<itemClasses>],
        [<numbersOfItems>]
       ],
      [
       [<backpackClasses>],
       [<numbersOfBackpacks>]
      ]
     ],
     <virtualSupplyBoxFlag>
    ]";

     

    Thank you!!! So it is a little bit more (or less, depending on point of view) complicated. Another question then: while some items are pretty self-explanatory (like rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII) , how can I be sure that given classname is a member of, let say, weapon class and not magazine nor item class? How can I check it to be sure?


  5. Hello,

    in Eden I have created a box containing many weapons, mags and stuff. Here is its code:

    value="[[[[""rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII"",""rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII_M203"",""rhs_weap_mk18"",""rhsusf_weap_MP7A1_base_f"",""rhs_weap_M107"",""rhs_weap_m14ebrri"",""rhs_weap_sr25"",""rhs_weap_M136"",""rhs_weap_M136_hedp"",""rhs_weap_M136_hp"",""rhs_weap_smaw_gr_optic"",""rhs_weap_fgm148"",""rhs_weap_m240B_CAP"",""rhs_weap_m249_pip_S_vfg"",""rhs_weap_mk18_m320""],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]],[[""rhsusf_mag_10Rnd_STD_50BMG_M33"",""rhsusf_mag_10Rnd_STD_50BMG_mk211"",""ACE_HuntIR_M203"",""rhs_mag_30Rnd_556x45_Mk262_Stanag"",""rhs_mag_30Rnd_556x45_Mk318_Stanag"",""rhsusf_mag_40Rnd_46x30_AP"",""rhsusf_mag_40Rnd_46x30_FMJ"",""rhsusf_mag_40Rnd_46x30_JHP"",""rhsusf_20Rnd_762x51_m118_special_Mag"",""rhsusf_20Rnd_762x51_m62_Mag"",""rhsusf_20Rnd_762x51_m993_Mag"",""rhsusf_mag_7x45acp_MHP"",""rhsusf_200Rnd_556x45_soft_pouch"",""rhsusf_100Rnd_762x51"",""rhs_fgm148_magazine_AT"",""rhs_mag_smaw_SR"",""rhsusf_m112_mag"",""DemoCharge_Remote_Mag"",""rhsusf_m112x4_mag"",""SatchelCharge_Remote_Mag"",""ClaymoreDirectionalMine_Remote_Mag"",""HandGrenade"",""ACE_M84"",""Chemlight_blue"",""Chemlight_green"",""Chemlight_red"",""Chemlight_yellow"",""B_IR_Grenade"",""SmokeShellBlue"",""SmokeShellGreen"",""SmokeShellOrange"",""SmokeShellPurple"",""SmokeShellRed"",""SmokeShellYellow"",""SmokeShell"",""rhs_mag_M441_HE"",""rhs_mag_M585_white"",""rhs_mag_smaw_HEDP"",""rhs_mag_smaw_HEAA""],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]],[[""rhsusf_acc_grip1"",""rhsusf_acc_harris_bipod"",""rhsusf_acc_ELCAN_ard"",""rhsusf_acc_premier"",""rhsusf_acc_LEUPOLDMK4"",""rhsusf_acc_anpeq15_bk"",""rhsusf_acc_eotech_552"",""rhsusf_acc_compm4"",""rhs_acc_at4_handler"",""rhsusf_acc_nt4_black"",""rhsusf_acc_nt4_tan"",""rhsusf_acc_LEUPOLDMK4_2"",""rhsusf_acc_SR25S"",""rhsusf_acc_SpecterDR_D""],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]],[[],[]]],false]";
    

    Creating a box via Eden is not the simplest task so I have written little interpreter in Python. This is the code generated by this interpreter:

    "[[[""rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII""], [4]], [[""rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII_M203""], [4]], [[""rhs_weap_mk18""], [4]], [[""rhs_weap_mk18_m320""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_weap_MP7A1_base_f""], [4]], [[""rhs_weap_sr25""], [1]], [[""rhs_weap_M107""], [1]], [[""rhs_weap_m249_pip_S_vfg""], [1]], [[""rhsusf_weap_m1911a1""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_weap_glock17g4""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_eotech_552_d""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_compm4""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_ACOG""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_SpecterDR_D""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_LEUPOLDMK4""], [1]], [[""rhsusf_acc_ELCAN_ard""], [1]], [[""rhsusf_acc_anpeq15""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_grip3""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_harris_bipod""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_nt4_tan""], [4]], [[""rhsusf_acc_SR25S""], [1]],false];

    As you can see the main difference is splitting weapon name and its number into separater pairs. But this does not work! Once I paste the code into sqe file and try to run it then I got no errors but only rhs_weap_m4a1_blockII and rhs_weap_mk18 are visible in the box. What is wrong here?


  6. Guys, do you have the same problem as I do? I have downloaded dev-branch and I cannot change video settings. My normal view range settings for Stable are 6000/3000/200, here I have 6000/200/200 or sometimes 6000/366/200 and it looks like rendering distance for objects is locked! Is it just me?

     

    Tanoa does not look epic with object rendering distance set to 200 :/


  7. Dunno were the F5 hype came from but AFAIK "We are organizing the pbo's as of now, there is a ton of content to go through and make sure everything is correct before release" could mean days or even weeks.

     

    Don't want to burst anyones bubble, just don't be disappointed if you'll wait longer than you want/expect...

     

    Or months. If at all.

  8. Hello,

    I have noticed strange problem:

     

    my controller menu started to open very slow, this is known but not very popular problem:

     

    https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/139635-opening-settings-controls-menu-takes-very-long-time/

     

    I tried to clean my cfg files manually but it did not help. Then I decided to check what would happen with all joysticks and wheels unplugged. BAM! It not only solved problem with slow opening of controls menu, but ArmA started to launch much faster!

     

    @Devs

    can you please explain this? :)


  9. Bump with another question!

     

    Since BIS is going to implement EDen pretty soon (at least I hope so!) I want to make all "my" weapons be available in it. Unfortunatelly it looks more complicated - here is my code:

    class CfgWeapons
    {
    	class arifle_mas_m4;
    	class arifle_mas_m4_v: arifle_mas_m4
    	{
    		scope = 2;
    		scopeCurator = 2;
    		displayName = "M4A1 (W)";
    		magazines[]=
    		{
    			"ACE_30Rnd_556x45_Stanag_Mk318_mag",
    			"ACE_30Rnd_556x45_Stanag_Mk262_mag",
    			"ACE_30Rnd_556x45_Stanag_M995_AP_mag"
    		};
    
    	};
            [more definitions]
    };
    

    Theoretically it should work:

     

    http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=530685341

     

    but they are still not showing up in 2D/3D editor as a standalone items. What am I doing wrong? Or perhaps scope/scopeCurator is fixed and cannot be shadowed? 


  10. Hi,

    I am struggling with properties shadowing. I am trying to change some of Massi's weapons from his pack (for my personal use!) but it doesn't work for me. I am using third method of this guide cause I think it is the same case:

     

    https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Characters_And_Gear_Encoding_Guide#Inheritance

     

    My code goes like this:

     

    config.cpp

    #include "CfgPatches.hpp"
    #include "CfgWeapons.hpp"
    

    CfgPatches.hpp:

    class CfgPatches
    {
        class sun_weapons
        {
    	author="sunrrrise"
            units[]={};
            weapons[]=
    		{
    			"arifle_mas_hk416"
    		};
    	requiredAddons[]={};
            requiredVersion=1.48;
        };
    };
    

    CfgWeapons.hpp:

    class cfgWeapons
    {
    	class arifle_MX_F;
    	class arifle_mas_hk416: arifle_MX_F
    	{
    		displayname = "HK416 A5 14.5''";
    	};
    }; 

    And this is Massi's definition:

    class CfgWeapons
    {

    	class Rifle_Base_F;

    What am I doing wrong? No errors during binarizing, making pbo file, mod is loading properly but it is still "HK416".

     

    Can you help me with that? I tried to look at ACE realistic names config files as well as AGM's ones and everything seems to be correct but it's not. 

     

     


  11. Weather:
    - Added: Weather over time slider to the Change Weather in MCC. 
    - Fixed: MCC didn't work with ACE weather
    - Disabled: MCC weather sync when ACE is on

     

    Shay,

    are you able to change weather settings on-the-fly by MCC when ACE Weatcher is on? I mean ACE weather propagation as well as rain sync, wind sync and  misc sync is on? 

     

    I am asking because I am still struggling with rain.


  12. @Massi

     

    Thank you very much but it's not exactly what I meant by "balistic profile". Ok, here is the picture:

     

    open?id=0B9sDuKZj6EluWlh0T2dvNnh0dzQ

     

    1. you can see 5.56mm in the right corner

    2. are you sure this rifle/scope is zeroed to 500 meters?

    3. this is what I meant by "ballistic profile" :) You can see that your cartridge is properly recognized by Rance Card showed values zeroed to 100m, not 500. Besides I want to be sure that everything is correct in this profile.
