--- Description --- This addon introduces advanced external and internal ballistics to the game. It is entirely client-side and only affects small arms fire from human players. It makes long range shooting much more challenging and enjoyable. --- Features --- * Drag resistance based on ambient air density (air pressure, temperature, humidity) * Wind drift (Wind speed varies with the height above ground and obstacles like buildings or certain terrain features can mitigate the wind) * Spin drift * Coriolis effect * Eötvös effect * Decreasing bullet stability through the transonic region (-> significant dispersion beyond supersonic flight) * Ammo temperature affects muzzle velocity * High power scopes get adjustable Mil/MOA Turrets * Wind indicator * Protractor * Temperature simulation * Humidity simulation * High caliber bullet trace effect * Mirage effect and parallax adjustment -- More or less planned features --- * More advanced sight adjustment system for vehicle mounted weapons (M2, ...) * Dynamic wind (strength, direction, gusts) based on real world weather data * Maybe sandbags, tripods where you can rest your weapon on. --- How to use --- - You can enable/disable all features in the userconfig/hpp file. - Default key combination for showing the wind indicator is SHIFT+K - Default key combination for showing the protractor is CTRL+SHIFT+K - Default keys for turning the scope turret dials are (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT) - Default keys for parallax adjustment are (CTRL+UP, CTRL+DOWN) - Default keys for scope zero adjustment are (CTRL+SHIFT+UP, CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN) Community made tutorials: Precision Shooting (vekongmaster) - scribd - zippyshare --- Ballistic Tables --- .408 CheyTac - scribd - zippyshare Courtesy of TiborasaurusRex: 12.7x108mm .50 BMG M33 .50 BMG A-Max .416 Barrett .408 CT 338 Lapua Mag .303 British 7.62x54mm M80 M118LR Mk248 Mod 0 Mk248 Mod 1 .300 WM Berger Hybrid OTM 7.62x39mm 300 AAC Blackout 6.5x47mm Lapua Scenar 6.5x39mm Grendel 5.56x45mm MK262 MK318 5.45x39mm Muzzle velocity variation table AB Calibrated Ammo Parameters (Actual BC & MV) --- Compatibility --- - Fully compatible with 3rd party ammunition and weapons - Fully compatible with weather modification addons --- Ammunition database --- Download: http://pastebin.com/htWS3gJF --- Weapon Database --- Download: http://pastebin.com/4AjDWkna --- Guideline for 3rd party content creators --- --- Changelog --- --- Download --- Zip Package: @AdvancedBallistics_v3.5.zip --- Requirements --- * CBA - Community Base Addons * (optional): Kestrel4500 * (optional): ATragMX

You are trying to say that both calculators only work for some gun profiles? Real world ballistics calculators will only work if Advanced Ballistics is enabled. The ATragMX can handle both, vanilla- and advanced ballistics. Vanilla Ballistics drag is using the airFriction config entry, Advanced Ballistics drag is using the ballistic coefficient config entry. Join our public slack channel if you can't get it working.

Correct. As an aside: Advanced Ballistics is never used for projectiles fired from vehicles.

That is done by the ace_ballistics module. Which is enabled by default.

You only have to place modules if you are not satisfied with the default module options. Advanced Ballistics and Advanced Medical are both disabled by default.

In the HuntIR ammo box (class name: ACE_HuntIR_Box).

Try the optional ace_tracers.pbo.

The muzzle velocity does not really matter, when it comes to making the decision between optimizing for a minimum velocity- or a minimum drop difference. But, for the sake of completeness: Minimal drop difference: MaxRange (m): 1000 MuzzleVelocity (m/s): 899 Max. velocity difference (m/s): 18.91 Max. drop difference (cm): 3.36 Max. tof difference (ms): 13.0 Optimal airFriction: 0.00062461 Minimal velocity difference: Ammo Class: HLC_300WM_BTHP MaxRange (m): 1000 MuzzleVelocity (m/s): 899 Max. velocity difference (m/s): 9 Max. drop difference (cm): 14.21 Max. tof difference (ms): 9.0 Optimal airFriction: 0.00064485

Sorry, but I can't follow your explication. Let's look at the Berger Mk248 Mod 1 round (MV: 841 m/s, G1 BC: 0.607): Minimal drop difference: MaxRange (m): 1000 MuzzleVelocity (m/s): 841 Max. velocity difference (m/s): 16.11 Max. drop difference (cm): 3.91 Max. tof difference (ms): 14.0 Optimal airFriction: -0.0006431 Minimal velocity difference: MaxRange (m): 1000 MuzzleVelocity (m/s): 841 Max. velocity difference (m/s): 8 Max. drop difference (cm): 14.3 Max. tof difference (ms): 9.0 Optimal airFriction: -0.00066119 Optimizing the airFriction for a minimal velocity difference lets you end up with a far greater drop difference. Of course, both types have advantages and disadvantages.

Have you ever considered to minimize the drop difference instead of the velocity difference?

There is no other way of treating it. Unless you change the module option, like Glowbal suggested here: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?191716-ACE3-A-collaborative-merger-between-AGM-CSE-and-ACE&p=2954051&viewfull=1#post2954051

Use a PAK.

No, Advanced Ballistics only affects small arms fire. That's not possible.

The zeroing seems to be broken in vanilla Arma 3 ... I will investigate this further, but it's definitely a new issue and not related to any 3rd party mods.

Sorry for the late response.However I'm not able to reproduce your issue. That's what I get, when I use your resolution of 1600x900 (aspect ratio 16:9): http://abload.de/img/arma3op_2015_06_01_155nufm.jpg (115 kB) ---------- Post added at 13:49 ---------- Previous post was at 13:47 ---------- That is not possible, because discreteDistance is based on vanilla- not advanced ballistics.

Advanced Ballistics standalone allows you to fine-tune your zero: - Default keys for scope zero adjustment are (CTRL+SHIFT+UP, CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN)

After you hit the '-' key you turn into the wind, then use this value in the ATragMX.

Delete all gun profiles and restart the mission.---------- Post added at 17:12 ---------- Previous post was at 17:10 ---------- The ACE3 ATragMX does it already. However, no guarantee that I will port it back.---------- Post added at 17:13 ---------- Previous post was at 17:12 ---------- @J3aLeiNe, you need to press 'Enter' (while the cursor is in the zero range input field) to confirm the newly entered zero range.

No, but you can change the scope zero in the interaction menu (equipment -> "Set zero range"). Yes. Google Maps or this file: https://github.com/acemod/ACE3/blob/master/addons/weather/functions/fnc_getMapData.sqf#L17-L37 All of this is already implemented.

We can't help without more information. Dedicated server? Type of mission? Modset? Player count? RPT logs? There is most likely something very wrong with your setup if your FPS drop from 30 to 5 with stock ACE3.
