Hello, I am just trying to confirm my thinking. I am editing a mission which I want to run on a dedicated server (on the same machine). I need to test it quite a lot but am finding that you have to shut down the dedicated server each time you make an edit in the editor, then 'export to multiplayer' then restart then server, which all takes so much time. So I am doing this: 1. Open up eden editor. 2. load the mission. 3. make my change. 4.save it. 5 'export to multiplayer' 6. start dedi server (takes time) 7. log into server 8. test mission. 9. exit server 10. shut down server 11. go back to eden editor 12 make change etc etc what I want to do is 9. log out of server but keep it open and Open up mission in eden again 10. ...do stuff.. 11 export to MP.... WHILE THE DEDI SERVER IS STILL RUNNING... 12 reconnect to server and play update... It seems to me that the server locks the pbo and despite the fact that if you 'export to multiplayer' the editor squeaks a confirmatory message that it has been successfully exported (which it hasn't). The file timestamp remains the same. I've tried #restart and #restartserver (doesn't seem to do anything). Would anyone know of a way to getting the server to 'release' the pbo file so that I can update it? I presume I am just being thick. Thanks in advance, Atmo

Hello everyone. Every time i'm trying to launch my server, i'm getting an error saying "Out of memory (requested 0 KB). footprint 3750240256 KB. pages 32768 KB." So what i did was i tried to remove all the PBO files, and i found out that it was "Task Force Radio" that made that error occurred. But i don't know what i should do to get it to work. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS.

So, I recently purchased a dedicated Arma 3 server, the server is running on Linux, and runs vanilla Arma 3 without any problems. I decided to test out some mods, that I plan to use on the server, at first the mods would'n load correctly and I ended up changing the .pbo files in the addons folder for each mod to all lowercase names, this fixed the loading problems and the mods seemed to load. Once I joined the server I noticed that some of the vehicle from certain mods wouldn't show up in Zeus, missions with these vehicles in them wouldn't load either, the main mod in question is "CUP Vehicles" and "CUP Units". On the other hand i'm able to use modded weapons on the server and i'm able to place "CUP Terrain" Objects through Zeus. Server Log: http://pastebin.com/bdH4L24U

I got this to work (at least partially): in the init: if (isServer) then { addMissionEventHandler["PlayerConnected",{_this execVM "playerInit.sqf"}]; }; in playerInit.sqf: thisPlayer = objNull; playerId = (_this select 4); for "_x" from 0 to (count allPlayers) -1 step 1 do { if (owner _x == playerId) then { thisplayer = (allPlayers select _x); }; }; thisPlayer = _this publicVariable "thisplayer"; publicVariable "playerId"; the Id is correctly transfered the problem is thisPlayer returns nothing the if never returns true so either the player is not in the list allPlayers at the time or i have no clue I tested everything seperately and everything works so Ihave nu f*king idea why it doesn't work Please help thanks in advance

I'm making a guerilla style coop mission the code works well in single player but as soon as i go on a Server not verry much happens I plan on having a persistent server witch initializes with the start so i only have JIPs I have been trying to just execute code on new Players either by 1. writing them in a list and updating it every 0.1 sec. or (and looping thrue them later) 2. by (Player) execVM ... i tried playing with waitUntil it doesnt seem to have any effect (apart from delying the script) i failed with both attempts there must be something im missing maybe locality? here is my code (you can also Just answer my question im shure its a simple one for some of you) : 1. : while {true} do { for "_thisPlayerNum" from 0 to (count allPlayers) do { _thisPlayer = (allPlayers select _thisPlayerNum); if (!isNil "_thisPlayer") then { if (alive _thisPlayer) then { if (!(_thisPlayer in myLivePlayers)) then { // executed on Player spawn //waitUntil {alive _thisPlayer}; myLivePlayers = (myLivePlayers + [_thisPlayer]); _thisPlayer setCaptive true; } else { if (!(alive _thisPlayer)) then { // executed on Player death myLivePlayers = (myLivePlayers - [_thisPlayer]); if (_thisPlayer in HostilePlayers) then { TimeLastShot = TimeLastShot - [(TimeLastShot select (HostilePlayers find _thisPlayer))]; HostilePlayers = HostilePlayers - [_thisPlayer]; }; }; }; if ((_checkNewPlayer != (count allPlayers)) and (_thisPlayer in myLivePlayers)) then { _thisPlayer execVM "GW_3_0_PlayerConnected.sqf"; }; _checkNewPlayer = (count allPlayers); }; }; }; sleep 0.1; }; 2. : while {true} do { if ((count allPlayers) > 0) then { if (_checkNewPlayer < (count allPlayers)) then { waitUntil{isNull (allPlayers select ((count allPlayers)-1))} (allPlayers select ((count allPlayers)-1)) execVM "GW_3_1_Main.sqf"; } _checkNewPlayer = (count allPlayers); }; sleep 0.1; }; I would verry much appreciate your help this holds me back for a week now THX in advance

Hey guys, I've been trying to run a server for me and my friends to play when we hop on ArmA, right now I'm using RHS and ALiVE to do some guerrilla style missions, I've been using TADST's "local dedicated" server tool, I've enabled the autoInit "persistence" between player joins, but this obviously has it's downsides. - I'm running on my desktop, if I want to restart my PC, I have to close the server (duh) - I can't do an actual dedicated server, I don't want to pay for one or build a server box, so ALiVE's persistence is out of the question, I tried it's "single player save" but it is too much and crashes So this might be a dumb question, but is there a way I can run this server, and have the server save when I exit, then start back up when I re-join with my friends? Basically the same as ALiVE, but save the data local to my PC. Thanks, Envak

So, I've been having some issues connecting to servers recently. Whenever I connect to server I get into the lobby where I can choose a role. However, when I click play and my game is downloading the mission I Always get kicked. This goes for all gamemodes, Altis Life, KOTH, Domination etc. I have disabled all my mods and even reinstalled the game, but I can still not connect to any servers. I have downloaded the "rpt" file from when I connected to an Asylum Altis Life Server and was kicked off. How can I fix this? Thanks in advance!

I'm working on a mission that doesn't have re-spawns and designed for quick firefights. My intention is to design a mission for a dedicated server with the following: If all Blufor (players) are killed, failure If time runs out, failure If all Opfor units are killed, victory Notify all players (even dead) when there is one player remaining Notify all players (even dead) when there is one enemy remaining have the same number of units and type of unit on the enemy side, i.e. 1 autorifleman blufor and 1 autorifleman opfor (shown in the initServer.sqf is already working) My experience with multiplayer scripting is limited and I'm struggling to understand why it works in local hosted multiplayer (as the host alone) but not on dedicated servers, issues include: After starting the operation using the action (see flowgraph) the LastMan.sqf will start running immediately, even with 2 blufor players Server, after starting the operation using the action, will stop updating unit positions and AI will not react. All players except yourself are running in place, coupled with sudden spikes in framerate loss when initially activated and unable to kill enemies. Enemies don't react to being shot or standing directly in front of them even. this problem isn't present on the locally hosted Possibly an issue of the server ending the mission locally but not for clients (just a guess)? Mission must still be working enough to continue the countdown timer, mission fails properly when timer reaches zero Maybe I should be getting rid of triggers entirely? But it always seemed like they synced across multiplayer better Using the trigger and (count Thislist < 2) is that when all remaining players enter one vehicle, it counts as one unit and starts the trigger Tried using setting the triggers to server only and using Bis_fnc_MP but led to the mission immediately ending upon starting the operation action Code Flowgraph Mission Source https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B85GbOCq33caWlhHNW1KcENzV00/view?usp=sharing Thanks for the help on this issue

Dear community, Based on feedback from server operators we acknowledge that the costs connected with hosting a server can be prohibitive and thus rules out a lot of gamers/squads from being able to afford one, so we have subsequently agreed to allow limited monetization of Arma 3 servers. Full set of rules may be found on http://www.bistudio.com/monetization. Please feel free to share your questions and feedback here in this thread or send us an email to monetization@bistudio.com. We have compiled a list of the most frequent questions and answers and you can check it out here: FAQ.

EDIT: * Please move me to the relevant section (servers) Sorry i missed it originally * Hello all, First off thanks to BIS for an awesome game ;) So I'm having a few niggling issues with my server setup, I need to get a few things clear/straight. I'm hoping one of you can help me. After the dedicated server install onto my laptop (i7 @2.2, 8gb ram) which was fine after following this guide Guide here. I was able to run a server and have friends join via IP:PORT (port issues with router). We ran a few missions had a lot of fun etc, I shut the server down. Lost all save progress for a mission (liberation - auto saves). So i started looking into the Aram3 profiles D:\Games\Arma3\A3Master\Users\Adminstrator\Administrator.Arma3Profile D:\Games\Arma3\A3Master\Users\Administrator\Arma3.cfg Which on my system is located at "C:\Users\richa\Documents\Arma 3" I then noticed when i set the server up on the 17th of this month nothing had changed the files for the last 2 days. Last modified time was 17th. I expected to see the 19th as we were playing and changing mission files. I had these files auto created as they should of on first run. I then decided to do a few install and start again to see if i could sort the issue out. I deleted all the files and folders created at A3Master, A3Files, and Aram3 in my document folder to start clean. I went through the guide again to setup a fresh, ONLY this time the profiles were not being created in MY documents or in the A3Master folder as the guide says it would be. I'm not sure how to do a clean wipe and have these files auto created again. So how do i get a fresh install and get those files to generate? Also on a side note none of the saves that were supposed to be linked to my profiles are loaded. I'm assuming its because its not reading the save files from the user folder . I'll post my arma3server.exe cmd parameters, config_vanilla.cfg, arma3steamstart.bat to see if anything sticks out to you lot.

Hi everyone, after the server of my players group was shut down I tried to create a temporary solution with a second PC in my living room, where I run the server on. The problem is, though the server starts up correctly, it cannot be found in the server browser nor can it be connected to directly via IP. The server runs on Windows 10 and has an own Steam-Account. The game version is 1.66. The server window starts and the usual four lines of text apear. According to the RPT-file, the server is "Connected to Steam servers". Some things I tried so far: - Starting with ARMA 3 Launcher - Starting with TADST (Steam on and off) - Starting with Batch-file (the command line is to long for links) - Forwarding the ports 2302-2305, the BE-ports and the steam-ports (270XX) in the router and the windows firewall - Activating UPNP (opens ports 2302, 2303 and 2304) - Deactivating windows firewall - Deactivating port filtering at all Even when launching A3 and hosting a new game with the ingame-server-browser, the server cannot be found. I'm out of ideas. I'd much appreciate if somebody had an idea what else to try. Cheers!

Hello everyone I know that i am relatively new on the forums, however i thought i make a thread on how to install a Dev Branch version of the Arma 3 Server since that has been a total nightmare for me. I don't know how many people actually intent to test the server part of this, however i think it might be useful if someone is in the same situation as me. The two main ways to install an Arma 3 Server version are using Steam and SteamCMD. I will go through both of these and explain my experience with them. Steam Lets get this out of the way right now, as far as i can tell there is not way to actually install the "Arma 3 Server" stand alone version in the Development Build. When you do try to install it in development build you only get the current build with a performance build. The way to do this would be as follows: In Steam go to "Tools" and find the Arma 3 Server. Right click it and chose "Properties", now go to the tab "Betas" and enter the Code "CautionSpecialProfilingAndTestingBranchArma3". (This will however NOT install a x64 Version or the new build) You do however get a Arma 3 Server in the dev build when you simply install the normal Arma 3 game and you will therefore also get an x64 version of the Server if you put it into the dev build. (I admit this had eluded me at the beginning) Wiki link to the Dev branch passwords: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Steam_Branches#Arma_3_Server SteamCMD This one works however it is a bit of a shot in the dark since it only works sometimes. First you have to keep in mind that there are two ID's for this one for "Arma 3" and one for "Arma 3 Server". As we have just determined the latter is not actually included in the Dev build so we need to make sure to use the correct ID if we want a x64 Server. Check out these two pages showing the IDs: Arma 3: https://steamdb.info/app/107410/ Arma 3 Server: https://steamdb.info/app/233780/ If you know nothing about SteamCMD then the most simple way i can explain it is like this. You download SteamCMD at the link provided below and unpack the file into the folder where you want it installed. (Something like C:\SteamCMD) when you start it up it will download some files and install itself into the directory. SteamCMD Download: https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/steamcmd.zip The next thing you want to do after it is installed is login, use the following command for that: login YourSteam@Email.com YourSteamPassword Type in the SteamGuard key you just revived in your Email inbox The next command will be what installs the game, here we are going to use the ID for the Client version since that is what installs the server dev version. app_update 107410 -beta development validate From experience this will install the game in the none dev version and i have no idea why. However when i delete the install after this and run the exact same command again then it will install the correct dev version with the x64 Server. You can check the download right after you started it, look in the following folder if you have installed it where i suggested: "C:\SteamCMD\steamapps\downloading\107410\" The game .exe files are one of the first thing downloaded so if there are no x64.exe files present then it is downloading the wrong version. If so then just kill the program, delete the folder and run the same command again. There is way more detailed information about SteamCMD and how to install an Arma 3 Server. I encourage you to check out the following if this is something that you are interested in: How to install an Arma 3 Server: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Dedicated_Server How to install SteamCMD: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD Steam authentication failed I know that people have had problems with the dev build especially with the latest build that has resulted in a lot of people getting the above error. The SteamCMD version is supposed to be a stand alone version that works without steam, however that part is broken at the moment. I have not gotten my Arma 3 SteamCMD version to work however i have found a workaround. Install Steam on your Server/Computer and install the Arma 3 Server version in profiling.(Pretty much the first step i explained that doesn't work for x64) After that you can cheat a little and copy the version you downloaded from SteamCMD and put it into the same directory as the one you just downloaded with Steam. Make sure that the folder is called exactly the same as the one installed by Steam and don't overwrite it just rename the old one or delete it. Make sure Steam is closed while doing this. I know that doing this is a bit redundant since you could simply run the version that you have installed through Steam, i just wanted to show that the version downloaded by SteamCMD is in fact working however it requires you to have steam running in the background. (I am sure this will be fixed soon) Anyways, i hope this helps someone somewhere out there. Feel free to ask any questions you might have i will be happy to help.

Description: Zeus Integration with Servers and Headless Client aims to transfer all spawns from Zeus, and distribute onto server and headless clients, as well as automatically allow other zeus users to see and edit units placed down. This is all accomplished without any overhead. Everything is handled with EventHandlers, so no messy, constantly running scripts. This mod is designed to be run on server, headless clients, and clients to function properly. Will work with no headless clients, or however many you manage to connect. Will also work with non-dedicated servers. Beta Version 0.3 Features: Adds all players to all curators on respawn Transfers vehicles/units/groups placed by curator to server/headless client Adds placed vehicles/units/groups to all curators Server keys ChangeLog:v0.3 - Efficiency -Changed way MP is sent to be more efficient -Fixed rotation not being retained on moving objects -Fixed a few minor bugs v0.2 - Rotation - Added MP functionality for rotating objects in Zeus v0.11 - Hotfix - Fixed locality not switching correctly - Fixed group leader not being correctly retained - Fixed units in mechanized spawns not being added to curators v0.1 - First implementation - Added - make players visible to all curators - Added - Distribution system to evenly distribute units across all servers and headless clients - Added - make placed units visible to all curators - Added - server keys Known Issues: -Will not add or transfer units placed by init scripts, mission, or various modifications (will not support this as intent is zeus support only) -Air vehicles do not start engines and begin flying immediately after changing height to midair Plans: The intention of this mod is to allow units, such as 72nd Airborne Division that I am apart of, to use Zeus on servers more efficiently. The idea is to allow even more players to join the server with even more AI, with less of a performance impact. - Plan to add configuration to allow weighted spawns. IE, twice as many units being spawned on headless clients than the server. - Plan to add configuration to allow weighted spawns on clients. IE, all clients connected to server will handle 1 AI, when server and headless clients may be running 10 AI each. This will mean more people connected to the server, the better it will run Note- My release model is this. Internal Testing means its an Alpha. Public release without all planned features implemented is a Beta. Full release means all planned features are added to the mod and working correctly.

Hi, I got some dramatic trouble with daytime. When jip, all PCs (hosted server + clients) are thrown to JIP daytime (reset at mission start) instead of the contrary. Environment: MP mission hosted, time multiplier as parameter in description.ext (class params), daytime also as parameter in description.ext. Mission starts at morning, no problem, all players sync for daytime. time multiplier for 4 hrs == 1 day. one player quit the game (at night time), then come back soon (JIP) All players (server hosted incl.) are now at morning daytime like when mission starts! I figured out JIP was sync to server in a couple of seconds, not the contrary! Why is it server and all players who are sync to JIP??? Sorry for my English.

I want to do that via a script or a trigger after the mission end screen appears. Why? because when people click ok instanly they get joined back into the mission because the server does not load the new one fast enough.

Hi. I placed a jet and gave it waypoints etc. Now when it gets shot down i want it to respawn after 30 seconds or so. I want the AI to have a 100% skill level and have it circle close to the center of the map. Any jet will do, a random one out of the 4 would be very good though. I tried a little bit but it didnt work. And i do not want to google for five hours, did it 30 mins and found nothing which is why im asking here. Help would be appreciated!

Hi everyone! I've faced a problem, when spawning a structure, consisting of 500+ objects, on demand. When it happens, one or another random object from this structure doesn't show itself physically (for every player, so it seems to be not a client-side problem). I'm wondering if there's a way to prespawn an objects in any virtual way and when they needed - just to enable them or clone into a real ones. The hideObject way isn't appropriate for this, because the hidden objects are still participating in server-side calculations. That's why i've decided to use deleteVehicle after this massive structure done it's job in scenario (it really saves a server FPS). I've tried to set for every such object "_obj enableSimulation false; _obj allowDamage false;" but it seems not to be helpful when this kind of complex structure (consisting of 500+ objects) are on the map in amount of 3 or more. I really appreciate any help, guys. Thanks!

I have a trigger that gets activated by anything inside a 10kx10k area. This trigger has "SideScore" call BIS_fnc_endMissionServer; in the on activation, it is delayed by 930 seconds. The problem: When the mission ends, everyone has to wait 5 seconds for the new mission to start, if anyone presses ok the new mission will continue on. What can i do? Is it a server setting?

Ragdoll - loading of ragdoll source "Soldier" finished successfully. I have done the following to try and fix: Googled till the cows come home for fix, Installed MySQL as Local Admin User, Downgraded MySQL to previous versions (same error persists in WP.log), Reinstalled Windows, (extreme I know, had to be sure before posting here though) Added exceptions to folders MySQL in firewall, Turned firewall off, (back on now :P) Changed Compatibility mode for MySQl workbench. Tried using extdb3 rather then 2. (I know this wasn't going to fix, had to try though) Side notes: I have had exile servers using MySQL when OS was 8.1. I will be making the same thread to MySQL forums, and other sites aswell. Sorry if this post looks a mess, first time poster.
