    Two helicopter questions: The Air Force CSAR birds are being replaced. Will the new mod reflect the change to the HH-60W The USAF security forces that guard nuclear missile sites are getting a new helo to replace their Huey's. The MH-139 is planned to replace it. Just curious if y'all were aware and if it was planned. Thanks for all of your work on this great mod Jason

  3. Trying to get this working for a mission. When I put the OPFOR near where the mission starts with a trigger nearby, I can get the OPFOR to come in once I cross the trigger. When I move that same trigger and OPFOR group out to the part of the map I want to use it, nothing happens. I even put in hint"opfor"; in the trigger so I know I am hitting it. Any ideas on why I can not get this to work? What other information do you need from me? My mistake. It was spawning too close to friendlies and I had to use PAUSE to get the units to spawn in. Thanks for making this script. Jason
  4. I'm working on building a mission. I want to have OPFOR spawn in as triggers get activated along the way rather than having AI bogging things down waiting for their time to become relevant. Most of what I've seen involves scripting. I was wondering if anything easier for this has come about now that Eden is around? I have already placed a bunch of the units on the map, and I was wanting to transfer them over to getting spawned in as bluefor hits triggers. There is this 3 part video series by something something games: Hoping that there is a more point and click way to do this Thanks Jason

    Spawn OPFOR on trigger

    Seems to work great! Thanks for the tip. Jason

    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    Has anyone had luck getting these RHS mods to run on a dedicated linux server? I've made sure the directory and file names are all lowercase If I remove all mods except RSHUSF and RHSARF, It will load the RHSARF mod but not the RSHUSF. Ideally I want to use other mods too, but one step at a time Thanks Jason
  7. I'm new to mission creating and I want to add a UAV to the mission. I can get a UAV to spawn in on the map, but I'm having difficulty getting the terminal. I've tried adding it to the person at the mission start and also adding it to a custom cargo box. For spawning in with the character I use this: this linkItem "B_UavTerminal"; For adding it to a custom supply box I do this: clearMagazineCargo this; clearweaponcargo this; this addItemCargo ["b_uavterminal, 1"]; The mission has me parachuting in. When I have the terminal added to the character. Every time I land, right before I hit the ground, my speed spikes and I either die or am severly injured. This seems to only happen when I try to jump in with the terminal I can't get it to show up in the box when I use the above. Any ideas? Thanks Jason
  8. New to Arma 3 administration. I'll post as much info as I can think might be useful. If I need to post more info please tell me what. I have an Ubuntu 14.04.3 headless server running at home. I'm wanting to add Arma 3 game hosting to its list of duties. Specs: Intel Xeon E3-1246 V3 (3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor) 16 GB Ram I first installed steamCMD and then Arma 3. I followed this site mostly to get it running. I am able to connect to the server and play off of it. https://medium.com/arma-3-server-administration/installation-and-configuration-of-an-arma-3-linux-dedicated-server-7875c9030b7#.mvkckrsyk I've managed to create a couple of missions and now I'm wanting to get into adding a headless client. I've followed Monsoon's tutorial for getting a HC running, but something isn't working for me. I've been reading lots of pages, forums, etc. and nothing I've tried seems to work. There seems to be some conflicting information out there for this as far as things used to work one way and now they are no longer necessary. I'm not sure what is current or not. At one point, I was able to get the HC to connect and it would then disconnect on its own within a minute (according to what my terminal was saying). Not successful. Now something that I've changed (and I can't track down what that was) it just starts up as another server instead of as a client trying to connect to the server. When I got to mulitplayer > LAN, it shows two servers. The one I tried to start up as a client is not connectable though, not that I want it there. I'm running the server and HC all on the same machine. I'm running the playable Arma 3 game itself on a separate Windows 8.1 machine on the same LAN. The terminal tells me the Arma 3 server I'm running: Arma 3 Console version 1.54 : port 2302 Arma server config file contents: //source: https:||community.bistudio.com/wiki/server.cfg // server.cfg // // comments are written with "//" in front of them. //Add headless client headlessClients[]={"127.0.0.1"}; localClient[]={"127.0.0.1"}; // GLOBAL SETTINGS hostname = "SaltyMedic Server"; // The name of the server that shall be displayed in the public server list password = "XXXXX"; // Password for joining, eg connecting to the server passwordAdmin = "XXXXX"; // Password to become server admin.

    Arma3 Headless Client Guide

    I have found that there has been a change in the password flag used to startup the headless client. Your tutorial shows using the -pass flag. That doesn't work, but the -password flag does work. This is for running on a linux dedicated server with a linux HC. Also, putting the startup option flags within single quotes ' ' makes it work for me as it doesn't without. For version 1.54 ./arma3server '-client -connect=127.0.0.1 -password=XXXX -port=2302 mods=@mod1;@mod2'
  10. Thanks so much for looking into that for me. I didn't think to try some of the changes that you made. I'm surprised the flag for password -pass and -password are different from the tutorial and what the BIWiki says. That's an important distinction. I also had not thought to use the single quotes in the start line I was able to get it to run from a script by using the single quotes ./arma3server '-client -connect=127.0.0.1 -password=XXXX -port=2302 mods=@mod1;@mod2' Thanks so much for your help Now to figure out how to use this headless client Jason
  11. From what I've read, you don't need to buy a second copy of the game to run a HC. The arma3 server that runs on Linux will also run as a HC when started with the -client flag Here's a link to Monsoon's tutorial https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/178434-arma3-headless-client-guide/ From the BIWiki https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Headless_Client Thanks for looking into this Jason
  12. Thanks for the information. As to the public IP, I have a dynamic public IP. I also have a domain name that updates to that changing IP. I've tried putting that domain name in there, and it doesn't have any affect. The tutorial I read said pointing it to 127.0.0.1 should work. Here is my starup line: ./arma3server −client −connect=127.0.0.1 −port=2312 −pass=XXXXX -noSound -name=hc -profile=hc.Arma3Profile Still, no joy. From what I understand, the default directory for the profile is ~/.local/share/Arma 3 - Other Profiles/ Within that, I have both hc and headlessclient directories. I'm not sure which one is supposed to be there. I did try putting in the absolute path to that profile file, and it still didn't work Thanks Jason
  13. I checked for spaces and whatnot on the startup line, no problems there. The ports are open, but I'm doing this all within the network, so that shouldn't matter I changed the variable in my server.cfg file for BattleEye from 1 to 0. I'm assuming that is how you start the server without battleye. Tried flipping the ports. They started on their respective ports when flipped, but the -client just doesn't seem to start as client as it just starts as another server It seems the -client flag is ignored Thanks Jason
  14. Thanks for the input, but that did not fix it either The terminal window for starting the HC shows: Attempt to override final function - rscunitinfo_script Attempt to override final function - rscunitinfo_script Attempt to override final function - rscunitinfo_script Attempt to override final function - rscunitinfo_script 17:19:44 BattlEye Server: Initialized (v1.207) 17:19:44 Host identity created.

CreateBoundSocket: ::bind couldn't find an open port between 2303 and 2303 Arma 3 Console version 1.54 : port 2314 I don't know why it shows starting on port 2314, the startup line I have says -port=2312 The terminal window for the server shows: Attempt to override final function - rscunitinfo_script Attempt to override final function - rscunitinfo_script Attempt to override final function - rscunitinfo_script 17:15:31 BattlEye Server: Initialized (v1.207) 17:15:31 Host identity created.
