Every now and then my Battleye plays up, and the weird thing is it's usually when i Alt+tab out to check discord etc, i cant play for longer than 1 minute until i receive a kick and a message saying, Battleye client not responding, i've tried every fix under the sun, verifying cache, deleting BE reinstalling arma 3, tinkering with my internet, firewalls the lists go on, the legit only way i can resolve it is when the server restarts, which is every 12 hours! and this is so common for alot of arma 3 players, please guys i need help if you have a fix please tell me!

Good day. I have a problem with BE, after entering the server(server with activated BE) throws in the main menu with an error:"BattlEye requests a game restart(BE service is not running properly).Restart?"- tried to delete/reinstall the game / BE... but it did not help.Actually, how to solve this problem? PS:Sorry for mistakes in the text, use Google Translate :)

Hi all, So i decided to try and get at least a peak into ArmA3's online community. After 900+ hours of offline SP game time. Enabled BE and launched the game... or so i thought - error crash due to BE blocking steam files it seems. Reinstalled a dozen times. (both the game and BE) -of course always everything 'as admin' Read countless posts about BR related errors. No fix helped. (most fixes are ingame related or server kicks etc. I found no one who got their steam.exe blocked) Tried different runtime environment solutions. BattlEye suggest missing RE files as a possible cause. No good. Read similar topics in other game forums (e.g.: PUBG seems to have similar issues) Tried clean install - no Addons (had previously still BIS' ADR-97 Weapon Pack loaded) Tried w/o all DLC's disabled AVP let everything pass through firewall The game runs perfectly fine w/o BattlEye btw Does anyone remember the good old days when you would just hook up two PC's and play OFP with a friend? No 3rd, 4th or 5th party platform running and ruining in the background? Anyway the issue persists. BE blocks steam itself which seams to crash the game. It's all over in just 6 seconds :) Loading the Game from launcher with BE enabled - here is what it says: 20:06:13 Starting BattleEye Service... 20:06:16 Launching the Game... 20:06:17 BattlEye: Note that file blocks can be ignored if they don't cause problems with the game. 20:06:17 Blocked loading of file '[..]\Steam\GameOverlayRenderer.dll' 20:06:18 Blocked loading of file '[..]\Steam\steamclient64.dll' 20:06.19 Blocked loading of file '[..]\Steam\Steam.exe' ArmA3 has exited in an unusual manner Exit code: 0x00000035 At least it's very safe ...from an anti-cheat point if view. If anyone has additional suggestions I'd welcome any input. so long

Hi Guys, i'm running several servers on one machine. The are seperated by IP not by Port, so they are all using standard ports. since last version users can not connect. i see this error in log: 12:55:48 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:55:53 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:55:58 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:03 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:08 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:13 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:18 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:23 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:28 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:33 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:38 BEServer: cannot find channel #858324836, users.card=0 12:56:41 BEServer::finishDestroyPlayer(858324836): users.get failed any ideas? This is not happening with Version 1.80.143869.

Simple BeLog reader Hi again, I used to help moderate a not so small dedicated arma server. Occasionally I needed to look through server logs to see who was connected to the server when. What always bothered me is those server logs are in plain boring text and not in a nice structured table like the ones you have when using something like EPM RCON. So I decide to write a program that transforms that plain boring text into a nice structured table. I've also added a simple search function and some advanced options. Features: In a few clicks you'll transform your BeLog-file from a dedi server into a nice structured table All the basic features of a table Search function for name, id, ip, guid, connect time, disconnect time, connect date, disconnect date Filters for: empty IP, empty GUID, empty name, empty (dis)connect time/date, bad names, ... Able to filter for players online between 2 given hours Open multiple log-files in the same table Dark theme Note that almost all these features are still work in progress. They're usable but don't be surprised if something doesn't entire work as you'd expect it to. Future plans: Make a tutorial video on how to use it Fix all known bugs Expand documentation Pack into a .exe (Items higher up the list have a higher priority for me) If you have any suggestions for what else I could do, let me know. Usage: Download SimpleBeLogReader.jar from the gitlab linked below. A .jar is an executable like a .exe is with the only difference that you need java installed to be able to use it. Once you double clicked it the welcome window will appear with one button on it. Click on that button, browse to the BeLog file you want to look at. Select it and press OK. You'll now see your BeLog file in a nice table. I plan on making a small video explain how to use it in the future. Known bugs: Spelling mistakes (I mean, I'm sure I made at least one :)) No others at this time If you find any other bugs feel free to post them here or on my gitlab. Changelog: Requirements: Java SE Runtime Environment 8 or later.

Download: https://gitlab.com/stanhope/SimpleBeLogReader If you simply want to use the tool download "SimpleBeLogReader.jar" from that gitlab, the source code is also provided on that gitlab. Lastly I'd like to kindly ask everyone to not host my work in other places if no major changes have been made to it. Instead please simply link to my gitlab, this is merely a request. If you made a significant change to my script I have no problem with anyone hosting it anywhere as long as it's in accordance with the license.

Hi there, Over the last two to three weeks, I've been unable to remain connected to an ARMA server to which I previously had no problems with. I am able to slot into my position, load into the map, and begin gearing up, before anywhere between one minute to four minutes later, I'll get kicked with the message "You have been kicked. BattlEye Client Not Responding." Thus far, I have tried the following: -Updated my network drivers. -Disabled my firewall. -Disabled anti-virus. -Ping tested external sites to ensure I was getting a steady connection out. -Rebooted my router, numerous times. -Rebooted my PC, numerous times. -Attempted to load the game in numerous ways, by launching with mods directly into the server via the ARMA 3 launcher, and by loading the mods first and seeking the server through the in-game server browser. -I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game four times. -I've uninstalled and reinstalled the mods five times. -I've verified my game cache. -I've deleted all BattlEye files, and then re-verified game cache in order to re-download them. -My network is stable, and fast. I download at 40MB/s. I have no trouble connecting to any other game or service. It's only ARMA, and only BattlEye with ARMA. -I have added exceptions to my firewall, and disabled it entirely, to no avail. And finally, I've gone as far to reformat my entire computer, and reinstall Windows. This still hasn't fixed the problem. I am out of ideas, and I could really use some help. Less than three weeks ago, I could connect and play to this server fine. Nothing has changed on their behalf since then, either. I've checked. (It's my milsim unit for ARMA. I've spoken to the server admins and mission makers.) Thanks,

Hello! I have as of recently been getting the classic error message of "BattlEye Client Not Responding" and then being kicked off the server i'm on. I get into the server and can run around for 1 minute and then I get kicked off. I have tried: * Restarting my router * Restarting my pc * Reinstalling battleye * Completely deleting and reinstalling battleye (http://customcombatgaming.com/forums/index.php?/topic/26088-instructions-manually-repair-battleye-for-arma-3/) * Verify game integrity files. * Reinstalled the mods for the server. I would be very thankfull for any help I receive as this is getting quite annoying at the moment. Thank you for taking your time to read this. //Cookies2432

Hello I play the old Dayz mod on Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead since you released the update earlier today for Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead I can no longer open Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead on steam or play the Dayz mod server that I play on through a launcher. When I try to launch the game through steam or the launcher the message "Battleye failed to read initialization file" pops up then closes and the game fails to launch. This issue isn't just with me, my two friends who also play have the same issue. please fix.

Hello, So recently i've tried to connect to any Arma 3 server and without fail, it's always ended up saying the same thing: "BattlEye Initialization Failed". This has never happened to me before this point in time, i've tried looking it up and following what everyone else says to do but nothing seems to work for me, this is what i've done: -Verified integrity of Game Cache via Steam -Uninstalled and re-installed Arma 3 -Uninstalled BattlEye via Arma 3 directory and re-installed it -Allowed full control to everyone on my system on all of the main files of Arma 3 via Arma 3 directory -Sent in a support ticket to Arma 3's support team I've tried it all unless i'm missing something, I love Arma 3 and would love to play some more but without this, i'm restricted to SP missions and the Editor which is fun for a while but i'd like to play with others in multiplayer servers. If anyone can get back to me that'd be amazing with a solution, i'm sure that i'm missing something stupid and right in front of me but I can't tell what that might be. Thanks again!

Hi I've got a problem with my BE since arma 1.80* update I can no longer connect by rcon, I tried on two separate machines one running windows other linux, tried connecting locally and remotely, my beserver.cfg is setup, got RConPassword and RConPort, config is active since server starts the name of .cfg is changed. I've tried connecting via EPM Rcon and php script RConPassword somepassword19 RConPort 2316 any suggestions?

....same old story. new update, new bugs that DESTROY the game. this time its " battleye initialization failed", a new error when trying to connect to dedicated server. i already did: - updated the client game, and veriefied game cache. - updated the dedicated server tool, verified game cache also here. - with battleye OFF it works, let people connect to server. with it ON, gives this error and dont allow clients to connect. great work BIS, now please, please PLEASE, go in holiday , for the rest of your lives. THANKS.

Everytime I start the dedicated server with its server.cfg file and then open the game on the same computer I get this "Session Lost" message within a second of joining the server I did on my own computer. I have tried on different computers both launching game AND server on them, I've also tried to start the server on my own computer then have someone else join it and vice-versa SAME THING HAPPENS. I know it is an old game. It is not an answer to attest to such facts. Also is there an option to make a LAN server, something I can put on the server.cfg file? I am very pissed off this is happening. THINGS I'VE TRIED: REINSTALLING THE GAME AND ALL DLCS SEVERAL TIMES IN ORDER: arma 2, arma 2 oa, arma 2 baf, arma 2 pmc, arma 2 acr. server.cfg BattlEye = 0; verifySignatures = 0 through 2; equalModRequired = 0 and 1; loopback = true; this one was successful but only to connect to the dedicated server from the computer you're executing the dedicated server from. Which is pointless. Whether it is a BattlEye problem only or whatever, I have no clue. HELP

I have following problem on a new Installed Arma3 Server (Steam Tools "Arma3Server") : 1. If a player tries to connect to the server a prompt shows up with "Failed to initialize Battleye", the player got diconnectet. 2. If i trying to start iBatlle Rcon the BEC-Console says "No Valid response. Trying to reconnect.!" Port Forwarding, write acces to the Folders and config files are checked hundred times by myself but i couldn´t see why the error is exicting. I searched the wohle Server for any battleye folders and files in case that they would cause the problem but outside Arma3 werent any files or directories. And yes i tried Goolge at first but any solutions i found didnt work, so in fact i full re-installed the server 4 times Any susolutions ?? Portrange for Arma3 System Information from the Win2012 R2 Server (via Steam)

Hello, I have two life server and two devs server and since the 1.78 update nobody can connect to my server if BattlEye is active (BattlEye = 1;) ... I tryed one at a time and the problem still on ... thanks

I just realised that my global ban will be almost 5 years old (happy birthday! ). I got it in late 2013 when I decided to use a memory editor on a long dead wasteland server. It was a dumb mistake that I made in the heat of the moment which I regret every time my friend brings up KoTH or Altis life. Since then I played mostly with my friends running coop missions and playing with my unit. Now I've tried to get my ban repealed multiple times with no luck. I've given up on ever seeing the light again, all I want to know now is why is there such a harsh punishment for one time/first time offenders? I don't understand why it's a perma ban and not a monthly ban or a yearly ban. I've put over 700 hours into the game, and I feel like my probation should have been long over by now.

hi all. its more or less a week that i run 2 servers, one with a domination mission, and the other with a TDM. on both servers in different occasions, i see with my own eyes people cheating in every way, teleporting, making things like explosion rain happen ecc... not only breaking the gameplay, but in some cases also choking the server to the point it started lagging badly. in both cases battleye was OFF, so lets say its "my fault", but when i sadly writed in chat "i will put battleye ON", the cheaters laughted and writed it was useless. so.... i wish to know if battleye stops this or how else stop this! as a side note, i wish to add an info, dunno if its important: to keep maximum compatibility, my servers use scripts to enhance vanilla, and i wish to allow the bigger player base possible to join my servers, thats why i made it native compatible. for example some friends use CUP and other things like that, i wish to maintain compatibility if possible! thanks for any help!

http://steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/1/2381701715713966316/ Hello, im having issues with my Battleye as a whole, with arma 3 and PUBG, ive reinstalled both games from scratch and the issue is still occuring "BE service is not running properly game restart required" and just kicks me out of the game. the steps ive tried so far... 1. uninstalling BE and reinstalling 2. deleting files in the program x86 common files folder. 3. verifying the game(s) over and over 4. restarting pc over and over 5. UpNp is enabled on my router 6. allowed program through my firewall (bullguard) 7. checked services.msc and task manager while game is running (BEservice is there) 8. no problems installing/uninstalling 9. tried reinstalling windows (upgrade to avoid a full reformat) 10. tried sfc /scannow in CMD 11. tried disabling firewall completely 12. virus scanned 13. registry cleaned NOTE: my battleye on my the log tab says starting battleye...then launching game no problem i am well and truley bloody baffled... i cant think what i have done to change anything apart from a big windows update a few days ago... *will post some links to screenshots of the message i receive*

Hello, we have released a major upgrade of our BattlEye integration in a dev branch today. This new version of BattlEye uses a windows service that is started before the game and provides additional security. The service is started and stopped automatically and it's also shared among all our games that support it (currently Arma 3, Operation Arrowhead and DayZ) so the impact on your systems should be minimal. If you want to use BattlEye in an Arma 3 client (there's no change for servers) you have basically three options: Use Arma 3 Launcher Start the launcher, enable BattlEye in the options and start the game -or- If you're using a -noLauncher parameter to skip the Arma 3 Launcher in the game Launch Options, in a shortcut or an URL, you can also add a -useBE parameter. arma3launcher.exe -noLauncher -useBE <params> steam://rungameid/107410// -noLauncher -useBE Let Arma 3 start BE You can simply start the game and join a BE enabled server Arma 3 will show a dialog requesting a game restart If you will confirm it the game will be restarted with BattlEye enabled (restart is required in order to start the BattlEye service) Manual start of BattlEye Start the game by running the BattlEye launcher directly arma3battleye.exe 2 1 <params> The first parameter - 2 means BE should check for updates and then run the game <params> stands for command line parameters that are forwarded to the game Please use this thread to share your feedback and report any issues you may have to our feedback tracker. Thanks! EDIT: A3 launcher option extended with the -useBE parameter EDIT: The first parameter for arma3battleye.exe changed from 0 to 2

I have not been able to play Argo for the last few weeks do to a battleye issue and the steam shortcut. When I attempt to lauch Argo through steam I get no response. I then attempt to launch Argo through the File Library x64 or x32 and it will launch, However, as soon as I choose server and it enables battleye v1.243 and syncs my GUID, I get an error message saying "You were Kicked off the game (Battleye: Game restart required)". Note: Just before the recent Update i would get and error saying Battleye failed and if I would restart the game to enable it. I have searched all around for fixes and none have worked. Please help! What I have done: Verified game cache Steam deleted Battleye in Argo Library and then verified Cache Launch as Admin Install battleye.bat (it launched CMD saying "Launching Battleye..." then closes. as if nothing loaded.)

I'm doing Live Play with Arma 2 Combined Arms (on Steam version), but the Battleye would block my Live app, so I want to start the game without Battleye. Then I found that: *If I start the game without Battleye and to load the Original ArmA 2 properly, I can not launch with any mods, which I have to; (in Steam Inventory, right click and "Start without Battleye") *If I start the game without Battleye and to launch with the mods I need, I can't load the Original Arma 2 properly, which I need; (in Steam Inventory, input some perimeters into the "Launch Options", and right click and "Start without Battleye") *If I launch with the mods I need and the Original Arma 2, I can't start the game without Battleye. (use the "_runA2CO.cmd" in the game folder). What can I do???

ZBot ( An experimental project. ) -> For any BattlEye rcon game supported! Current version: 1.0.2 A Discord bot that can roam your Discord server and function as an RCON client for your BattlEye game servers. Screenshots at the bottom. What can it do? Print all chats in different discord text channels in their respective colours ( Side, Vehicle, Global, ... ). (Tip: Print sidechat in a channel that everyone can read !) Execute RCON & Server commands to your arma server in the assigned Command channel. Protect these commands with an appropriate Discord Role. Reply to user commands when they type ingame. These replies can be printed ingame and in discord. ( eg: !admin -> Admins can be found on discord -> @Admin some asked for an admin ingame. ) Web panel to configure your rcon-game servers. List players, admins & bans trough rcon commands. ( All BattleEye commands supported ). Country flags when using command !rcon players+ Automated messages configured in web panel ( these can contain command which will be ignored by the bot -> No endless loop :p ) Future plans: Support other types or RCON ( steam, minecraft,... ) Open for ideas. How to add it to my server? https://bot.devzupa.be/ Follow the flow of the site. It should be straightforward. Always remember to save a page if needed before navigating to another page! Add the bot before or after you filled in all the info. ( The button on top ). Always be sure the chosen roles and channel exist in your discord server! ( channel names are without the # ) Whenever you make changes in the config panel you need to reload the config of your server onto the bot. This can be easily done by just typing in a channel: !zbot reload This commands also refreshes your rcon instance if it would have stopped for some reason. All rcon commands can be viewed in the assigned 'command' discord channel. List these commands by typing !rcon All commands are prefixed with that aswell. 1 example for a global message by the bot: !rcon say all Welcome you our server! All rcon commands: # ZBot BattlEye RCON commands **All commands are prefixed with !rcon** ## Commands players List all players admins List all admins bans List all bans load scripts Reloads al BE scripts load events Reloads al BE events say all [text] Sends text to all users say [playerId] [text] Sends text to specific user id MaxPing [ping] Sets the maxping of the serve. kick [playerId] [reason] Kicks player (eg: kick 32 Language pls.) ban [playerId] [minutes] Bans online player (eg: ban 11 0 Duping) 0 = forever [reason] addBan [GUID|IP] Bans on/off player (eg: addBan 127.0.0.1 0 Duping) [minutes] [reason] removeBan [banId] Remove bans (eg: ban 11 ) version Display the BattlEye version update Check for a newer BattlEye version loadBans Reload Bans from bans.txt writeBans Rewrite Bans to bans.txt disconnect Disconnects the rcon exit Exits the whole rcon client ## Server Commands **All commands are prefixed with !rcon** #shutdown Shutdown the GAME server #lock Locks the GAME server #unlock Unlocks the GAME server #missions Stops current missions and goes to mission list #reassign Moves all players back into the lobby #userlist Displays the list of users on the server #kick [serverPlayerId] Kicks an online player #exec ban Bans an online player [serverPlayerId] Please provide as much feedback as possible ! 1 mistake by myself can crash the whole bot. So if there are still use cases where it fails we can finetune it! You can join our discord server to discuss or report bugs ( or the topics ). https://discord.gg/WYbeSKR Technical info about the bot. Hosted in france on a good server. Coded in NodeJS ( Ecmascript 6 ). Modular build. Oauth2 authentications. The bot will be hosted by myself until we encounter any problems we can't solve that way. If i ever stop hosting the bot i will release the sourcecode. I might also release the sourcecode earlier. ( If i know you, you can ask me for access to the code).

I sent this message to Battleye....... Does anyone have a soloution to this? Most of our guys have tried unloading mods and re-verifying files or just constantly restarting Arma but we really need a permanant soloution to this orr an alternate anti cheat system that works. Thanks for your time.

New Version of BEM is now available to download from my website! BEM is TheMeq's BattlEye Filter Manager for the ArmA series of games (Specifically ArmA 3 at the moment). You can use this tool to modify and maintain your BattlEye filters. You can modify keywords or the filters that that go against them with this software. [1.7.0.0] 64-Bit version has been released.[1.7.0.0] Added German (Thanks Kaionacho). http://bem.themeq.xyz/

There is some command to constantly check all the commands running on the client, in case it would be to prevent hackers. I tried the battleye but from what little I saw, the battleye only checks when you enter the server, or am I wrong? If I am, how do I execute the battleye constantly to check the commands executed by the client?

Like the title says, battleye is blocking Dxtory recoding/Lagarithc codec, "C:\Windows\System32\lagarith.dll" but only in 64bit version od Argo, on 32bit its working fine. I start Argo, and in the moment I press the button to start recording, window with message: [INFO] Blocked loading of file: "C:\Windows\System32\lagarith.dll". pops out. Arma3 64bit has no issues while recording. Any ideas are welcome, i reinstalled Argo, Dxtory, Lagarith codec, checked the firewall rules, and just cant find the solution. thx in advance EDIT: dont know how, but after the last win10 update and/or reinstalling k-lite codec pack, now i can record 64 bit Argo :)
