    windows server installation ... 2008? 2012? 

    Do you play the game on the WinServerOS "local" to test? then you would need the .net and DX.

    If your joining the Server to test (normal dedicated join) not need the files?

     

    I am confused you needed them (files) for a Windows Server OS, to run a dedicated server.

     

    It's a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard EN version.

    I did not need to install/update any .NET Framework Package or directX files.

    The Windows Server just runs the dedicated server.

     

    Maybe this will clear things up.

    This fix didn't solve the issue for me. I've checked event viewer and it says there's a fault with ntdll.dll:

    Seems weird as the x86/32-bit server version is still booting just fine. Looked up issues relating to ntdll.dll and all I'm finding is a lot of things relating to Internet Explorer addons. It is a core Windows file as far as I can tell.

     

    Yep, thats the same error I got, too.

    I just copied the files (like I described above) from my working test vm (hyper-v on my localhost) to my dedicated server (hosted by a provider) and rebooted the machine (I did not replace the ntdll.dll!).

     

    Fixed it for me.

     

    And yes it's a core component which you can't update if the machine is up. But I never did this before and would highly recommend that you backup the machine before trying this.

    There can be unseen problems after you tried this step. And I don't believe that this will be the "real" fix...

     

    If I'll see more information of this error I'll keep you informed. Hope you do the same with me/us.

     

    Kind Regards

    Hi afevis

     

    yes, I am sure I downloaded 233780.

     

    If you perform a clean windows server installation and install steamcmd and download 233780 and run the arma3server.exe or 64bit variant it will give you messages that these files are not found.

    I just added the files, restarted the server to prevent any unexpected behaviour and it works.

     

    Maybe you can give me your installation steps?

     

    The devil is in the detail :-)

     

    Kind Regards

    Hello guys

     

    yesterday we had some problems to update our ArmA 3 Servers to 64 bit update.

    The update command via steamcmd was not a problem, but to run the servers.

     

    First we received a message "XAPOFX1_5.dll" is missing. So I copied it from my computer (testing virtual machine for ArmA 3 for mods, etc.) in C:\Windows\System32.

    After that we got a message "could not start, exception 0xc000007b".

     

    Several retries, cheking procedures via steamcmd, second testing machine, etc.

     

    After that I found my solution:

    Copying all vcomp120.dll, X3DAudio1_7.dll and XAPOFX1_5.dll to C:\Windows\System32 and reboot did the work.

     

    But don't get me wrong - of course I had this files on my server before. But first the new copies brought it to work.

    Creepy, hm?

     

    So I cannot upload the fixed files here - so I'll not do so and link them here. But if anybody needs thems, I'll post the original post of my clan's forum where the 3 files are available as download.

    Just let me know.

     

    After that all it worked without a problem and I'm happy to have the new 64 bit stable update.

     

    Thanks for that and have a nice weekend.

    This is perfect! I wish you put an oil rig or something somewhere on the map! That would make for some great missions.

     

    EDIT: Someone has an oil rig map somewhere on the workshop, maybe I can put it on here

     

    I would prefer to do this in a mission...

    Love the idea of an empty water map, however having tried it, it crashes the game on exit (tested both with other mods and with no other mods).

     

    Yes, I noticed this behaviour as well. I`ll try to fix it. :-)

     

     

    It would be cool if you could put 2 or 3 small islands dotted across the map, maybe with a runaway and a small naval base on them

     

    Noticed for a new addon. I`ll not change this map because I just wanted to have a complete empty map with just water -> an ocean :-D

    But I`ll remember your wish for a new one.

     

    I hope this answer sounds good for you.

    Hi guys,

     

     

    I have a wish for you mate; how about making a god damn map, instead of just loading into and saving an empty template in L3DT.

     

    In Steam (I forgot it to post here) I wrote that this was my first addon. Until now I just created scripts and scripts... So yes its not much but its so simple that I couldn`t believe that there is not such a simple map. And I did it just for test purposes. And it works. So why shouldn`t I load it up?

     

     

    Thanks for this sollrmartyn. Will be very useful. Out of curiousity, is 100kmx100km the maximum map size in Arma 3?

     

    Cheers!

     

    Of course it`s not the maximum. But TeTeT answered your question. This is the reason why I choosed 100 x 100. :-)

     

     

    Thanks for the map! I guess the Nimitz users will love to is it once in a while :) I've also tackled the idea of creating a mostly sea map with a few islands for carrier and naval asset use - and also Pooks long range SAMs. It's nick name is 'Lake Chester'. Kind of got stuck with placing tons of objects there and terrain builder occasionally crashing...

     

     

    Take a look at this thread for very large maps in arma and their problems:

    https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/177119-large-terrain-test-collection/

     

    @TeTeT: If you need some support maybe I can help you. Im working just right now on some small and simple maps as a "basic terrain" for other groups and clans to create some simple training missions or small scenarios etc.

    Also working on a Fjord etc etc etc. :-)

     

    And I like this support from you guys! Hope to see some videos on youtube with my "map" in some time. If you have some questions or ideas - I want to learn.

     

    And for submarines: Ocean is over 6000 m deep... :-D Like the real Ocean.

     

    Stay patient for more Terrains. I`m in love xD (with L3DT) ^^

    Oh, this sounds cool. I was going to do the same thing. :cool:

    Nice to hear that I do things that the community wants to have :-D

    @Beerkan - nice idea.

    I never imagined to run the script on a non dedicated. (Maybe thats my personal thing, xD). If you changes works I will upload a new version of this script. Thanks for your report! Good work!

    Forgot the word "work" ... oops

    Hello and thank you for publishing on ArmAholic Foxhound.

    I updated the script to version 20140923.

    I fixed the compatibility with AGM and native ArmA 3. Also it will work with Simple Rank Patches in Single and Multiplayer. Tested with a dedicated server!

    Also I renamed the script and changed it into two scripts (created a subfolder) to get it work for AGM and native ArmA 3 in Multiplayer. The script before will work for Simple Rank Patches only.

    To start the script write in your init.sqf following text:

    [] execVM "simple_mysql_rank_script\init.sqf";

    Have fun guys and report bugs :-)

    Updated to version 20140923!

    This script will set the ranks of the players ingame. If you have a mysql database you can set the ranks for you clan mates automatically. This is very nice in combination with AddOns like AGM or Simple Rank Patches (http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=26316). I created it and tested it with Simple Rank Patches and AGM. You can change the ranks in your mysql table while a player is playing ingame and the rank and the insignia will change.

    Attention: The changing process can take up to 2 minutes.

    The download will contain the script and a mysql example table. It will work if you configure your Armed Assault 3 Server for use with ArmA2NET. If you have an exisiting database and know what to do just change the name of the database in the script.
