Currently the state of the Settings > Controls UI prevents reassignment of keys for those of us who cannot play using the default WASD based layout. I have managed to reassign a few control binds so far by sheer persistence, when the UI has worked briefly on some occasions after launching Reforger. The last few attempts have resulted in no further key assignments as the dialog fails to appear when a listed control is selected. There is, however, a potential workaround, if the required information is made available for it to be usable. The changes I have managed to make have been recorded in (for Windows 10) [user]\Documents\My Games\ArmaReforger\profile\chimeraUserInput.conf. Unfortunately only the changes are recorded in the file, not the entire control set and neither have I managed to track down any reference to the control definitions used in this configuration file, which appear to be formatted thus: ActionManager { Actions { Action CharacterForward { InputSource InputSourceSum "{59F149755A229279}" { Sources { InputSourceValue "{59F149755A2292E5}" { FilterPreset "primary:forward" Input "keyboard:KC_O" } InputSourceValue "{59F1497558C12CD4}" { FilterPreset "primary:back" Input "keyboard:KC_L" } } } } Action CharacterRight { InputSource InputSourceSum "{59F149755981B3FD}" { Sources { InputSourceValue "{59F149755981B3B0}" { FilterPreset "primary:left" Input "keyboard:KC_K" } InputSourceValue "{59F149755687CCD6}" { FilterPreset "primary:right" Input "keyboard:KC_SEMICOLON" } } } } Action CharacterStanceAnalog { InputSource InputSourceSum "{59F14974A5ED19E2}" { Sources { InputSourceValue "{59F14974A5ED199C}" { FilterPreset "primary:axis" Input "keyboard:KC_RSHIFT" } } } } Action CharacterSprintToggle { InputSource InputSourceSum "{59F14974B6FBF6A9}" { Sources { InputSourceValue "{59F14974B6FBF17D}" { FilterPreset "primary:click" Input "keyboard:KC_APOSTROPHE" } } } } } } From the sample above the format seems more complex than a simple one control - one key list, particularly with the two sets of directional controls, which appear to be paired. Is there a complete list of control assignments or documentation on how to format them available? Otherwise until the control settings function correctly, I've invested in little more than a menu page test.

Hello! I bought recently Arma 2 complete collection=all dlc-expansions pack I played Arma 2 a lot of years ago (retail) on a worse machine that the one that i have and i dont remenber this kind of performance this is what happens: changing graphics settings affect my FPS (at low set high fps and at high set less fps) ok? Well, the problem is that the game almost look the same, ugly. It looks even worse or similar to Arma 1! And im talking from the lowest to the highest setting. Yes, some things change a bit, but the big graphic thing remains the same. Every texture looks like it is low resolution, like OFP!! Im not pretending to play at the highest settings, but at least, medium one with a logic look Besides that, there is some texture popping up, or slow rendering (when you go far from an object) the strange thing is that, some things have excellent detail, for example: the humvee has arma 1 textures but you can see the water/moist on the headlights The player ped and the IA look decent too Its like, there is a texture, but there isnt a 3d thing going on And the weirdest thing: i can run arma 3 on decent fps and, looking more normal and logic my specs: intel i5-5200u intel hd620 Ram 8Gb DDr4 And when playing the game isnt even close to 60/70% on the cpu thanks!!

Hello all, I need some tips for getting more FPS and more smooth gameplay. Please tell me some tips, Nvidia Control Panel settings etc. Thanks in advance

Hey! I actually just started playing arma 3 🙂 And i have some big lag spikes lag problems probably because of my settings here are my computer settings or idk how they are called i am not that good with computers: Current GPU: AMD Radeon R9 200 Series Current CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20GHz Sockets: 1 Cores: 4 Logical processors: 4 Virtualization: enabled It says on AMD Radeon Settings Arma 3 is Fully Compatible for my computer so i can play it without lagg i think..? First my lagg was super bad! Then i watched a video about lagg then it stopped a little i restarted my computer i join a server it just crashes because of the lagg Here are some of my startup options: ( parameters ) ( everything that is turned on btw) 64-bit CPU count = 1 ( is actually not turned on but it has an number) System memory limit (64-bit) ( not turned on ) Video memory limit 1 ( not turned on ) Actually nothing is turned on..? And whenever i change my settings the next time i start my arma 3 everything is removed again any help for that to? Here are my Video Settings: Sampling 100% Texture: High Objects: High Terrain: Standard Shadow: Disabled Particles: Low Cloud: Low PIP: Disabled OVERALL: 1200 Object 1000 SHADOW: 50 HDR: standard Dynamic lights: low Water reflections: disabled Display: Fullscreen Window 1920x1080 (16:9) Auto (Stretch) (16:9) VSYNC Disabled Interface size: Small Bloom radial blur rotation blur depth of field sharpen filter all 0 AO: HDAO low Caustics: Disabled FSAA: 2x ATOC: Disabled PPAA: Disabled ANISO.Filtering: Disabled Sorry for the spoilers idk how to remove Thanks!, Jack

A week or so ago I saw my key bindings reset. I was a bit annoyed but it had happened before so I just re-did them and carried on. However, I have just now gone into the editor and seen that none of the missions under my user profile are shown. I have checked the launcher, and I am definitely loading the "Lawman" profile, of which there is only one. I have also checked the Arma 3 - Other profiles / Lawman / missions folder to confirm my mission files are still there, which they are. Not sure what to do from here on. I tried saving a new mission file to see where it ended up, and It appears to have been placed in the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\Missions Have BIS changed something so mission files are no longer local to profile? Cheers, Law

I want to add to my mod a setting using the CBA Setting Menu. I have followed the Wiki and so far I have done everything, but the Menu is not showing up. On my config.cpp class Extended_PreInit_EventHandlers { class my_preInit { init="call compile preProcessFileLineNumbers 'myAddon\XEH_preInit.sqf'"; }; }; And on my XEH_preInit.sqf: [ "My_ViewDistance", "SLIDER", "View Distance", "My Settings", [200, 15000, 5000, 0], true, {} ] call cba_settings_fnc_init; Settings are just for testing that the menu is showing up. What am I missing? I have been checking other mods that use the CBA, and I don't see nothing different. In Eden Editor CBA Settings Menu is empty. There no error showing up when starting arma or editor. EDIT: I have been following this wiki: https://github.com/CBATeam/CBA_A3/wiki/CBA-Settings-System#create-a-custom-setting-for-mission-or-mod

First off, I want to say how unique of a game this is. I love that it has kind of a feel of its own, and it is definitely fun to play! Of that uniqueness, there is a MYRIAD of ADS sensitivity settings. I'm a seasoned FPS player, but a lot of these options I've never heard of (i.e. exponent, ramp up, delay time, etc.). My issue is it's hard to find a guide anywhere online highlighting how to use said options. So maybe to resolve this issue for people like me, add some sort of "Key" or "Info" for these functions. Also a major immersion-breaker I've run into... I have to re-enter these parameters every-time I log back into the game after leaving. It adds another 15 minutes of me fiddling through the menu before a match. Like I said, loving what I'm playing so far! I love early-access because I can really see the game grow from the foundation up. Let me know if you have had any similar problems, and hopefully it get resolved soon. Cheers to Bohemia!!

Hello Arma 3 community, ive been back to arma 3 lately since its fun when its heavily modified. so from reading and watching stuff on how to get better performance for arma 3, ive managed to get my game running smooth and looking good. there´s only one problem left, and that is bullets! to be more precise i can barely see bullets landing/hitting something and even with tracers i cant really see bullets flying. im wondering if there´s any fixes in settings or maybe over mods for this problems. also, whats your experience with bullets? greetz weedo

During some Editing I seem to have made a change somewhere that causes both X and Y lines to show up during contacts showing the Enemy positions and their movement. This happens now in both sp and mp game play. Is there a setting Ive changed by mistake or maybe a clash of mods that I,m missing?

Is it possible to open a settings menu like a custom CBA one from a billboard with the hold space bar action? I have code that can open a field manual with a hold action, but I have a custom menu that allows setting view dist and sound volume, and I would like to be able to have players open it from a billboard or a laptop item. Surely I could modify the code to get this to work, but how would I get the path to a custom menu? Thanks. This is the code to open a field manual, I could possibly use this? BIS_holdActionSFX = (getArray (configFile >> "CfgSounds" >> "Orange_Action_Wheel" >> "sound")) param [0, ""]; BIS_holdActionSFX = BIS_holdActionSFX + ".wss"; BIS_holdActionProgress = { private _progressTick = _this select 4; if ((_progressTick % 2) == 0) exitwith {}; private _coef = _progressTick / 24; playSound3D [BIS_holdActionSFX, player, false, getPosASL player, 1, 0.9 + 0.2 * _coef]; }; [BIS_TV1, localize "STR_A3_Orange_Faction_IDAP_action_FM", "\a3\Missions_F_Orange\Data\Img\Showcase_LawsOfWar\action_access_fm_ca", "\a3\Missions_F_Orange\Data\Img\Showcase_LawsOfWar\action_access_fm_ca", "(_this distance _target < 3) && (isNull (findDisplay 162))", "isNull (findDisplay 162)", {}, BIS_holdActionProgress, {BIS_TV1 say3D "Orange_Access_FM"; ["InternationalHumanitarianLaw", "Overview", findDisplay 46, localize "STR_A3_Orange_Faction_IDAP_FM_filter_LoW"] call BIS_fnc_openFieldManual}, {}, [], 0.5, nil, false] call BIS_fnc_holdActionAdd;

Hi! I'm using Arms 3 with my Oculus Rift (via VorpX) and in general I'm very happy with it. I think it is amazing how well it works for not having VR support built in. After fiddling with the resolution and FOV settings a bit I have almost no distortion when as infantry and in ground vehicles. The only problem I have its when flying helicopters. Somehow the FOV seems to be different in there and I have quite severe image distortions especially when rolling my head. Is there a way to fix this? By the way I already noticed the same problem when playing Arma 3 on a Monitor with Track IR, so it is not really VR related. Thank you very much for the help and best regards!

So I'm trying to change the draw distance in my custom Zeus server. The in game configure menu doesn't allow me to change the actual server settings, I've heard there is a module or script or something that allows you to but I can't find it after 15 minutes of googling. Is this just not a feature or am I just missing this?

Hey all, I am currently preparing a mission which will feature a background music and ambient sounds. I would like to make sure that all the players hear it in case any of them had the music settings turned down to 0%. Is there any way to force audio volume settings on the players via a script or some addon so that I would be sure they can hear the music? Cheers, Adam

Hi, I've created some MP maps, 21 so far, using the RHS MOD on Tanoa and Stratis with Eden Editor. When I play the maps, I don't see my player on the "map" or friendly bases. Can this be fixed? Also, how can I add player ICONS so I can see my teammates during play? I have many more questions but I wont overwhelm this post. But one more is...I've created Red/Blue bases with a neutral base in the center. I set the trigger so the neutral can be taken by either side and go back and forth as may happen. After the neutral is captured, is it possible to make the next base, that belongs to the opposing side, appear on the "map" as the next target? Thanks for any assistance.

Hello all, I have a question regarding modules placed in the editor. As I understand it, the modules are a way to change certain parameters, which otherwise would have their default values as designated in config files. Are the default module settings (in the editor) the same settings as they are in config files? In other words: Does it make sense to place a module and not change any of its settings? Perhaps this even varies per module and addon. I'm asking this because when making a template mission with ACE3, I plop down all the modules to be sure even though I leave some with their default settings. Many thanks in advance, Nicolai

I'm not sure if this is game related, or mod specific. But why is it that all the helicopters get shot down every time by tanks? I'm using a BMP in this mission.. I tried using the 3den Enhanced to set the skill for both gunner and polite in the chopper: i..e.. max aim accuracy, aim speed and spot distance, and the AH64 still gets shot down every time. I also set the tank's crew skills very low, (in the 20s) for the same settings as the AH64. The 3den Enhanced does work with regard to the tanks firing at me, but the settings don't seem to have an effect on the choppers. But the larger question is: why are the AI settings in ArmA3 so unrealistic that we have to change them for everything we add? Couldn't there have been a better default setting? Tanks shoot at you and kill you on the first shot when you're sneaking in a forest 400 feet away. This is BS. There is no way. I have friends who are active in the military, and they even said it's unrealistic. I don't know why BIS hacked the settings in ArmA3 so bad. A solder gets tired in 30 seconds of running? Give me a break. That's not a solder, that's a wimp. They are not running full speed as we've been told for them to be out of breath this quick. The objects in the scene don't pass quick enough for them to be sprinting. The default AI settings in ArmA 3 are horrible. Sorry, not trying to be negative. But A2 was fun. I'm spending more time tweaking things in A3 then playing the game. Thankfully there are people in the community providing utilities such as 3den Enhanced. Had it not been for that, What would we do, live with these ridiculous default settings? Seriously.

As I come from Operation Flashpoint/Arma series, I was surprise not to find a scripting language in Take On Mars (as SQS/SQF), even with very few commands. a (small) scripting language could eventualy relieve to the missing of functionnalities and/or permits to easily insert random in user's missions. Did you plane to add a scripting language (I saw a sub-forum on Steam "Scripting & Configs") ? Or may I suggest you to add one ?

As a (yet another) follow-up of Difficulty/AI Skill settings proposal (also, REF:AI Configuration Analysis & this) I've decided to start a new thread dedicated not to what the AI can and can't do, but to how you, as a player, mission designer or modder can directly affect the AI's behavior. The initial goal is to: DEFINE Together with slightly improved documentation of AI Sub-skills, setSkill command and under-improvement CfgAISkill & page about precision(skill)Friendly(Enemy) (currently incomplete info here, more info here) we'd like to consolidate the configuration of AI on all levels. For that purpose, we've divided the issue into 2 main branches. Global and Per-unit configuration. Please, take a look at the documentation and let us know what you think about the current status, about current options how to configure the AI and also feel free to ask about anything you'd like to know and you feel is missing in the documentation! PROVIDE We'll hopefully get a chance to improve both "branches" soon or later, but our first focus is on the global settings; i.e. player more meaningful control over the difficulty of the AI in Game Options/Difficulty, defined in your .Arma3Profile. One option is to get rid of it completely and leave the decision about how dangerous the AI is going to be purely on the mission designer. #noFlameIntended The other option is to provide limited amount of, let's say 3, hard-set global AI skill presets - carefully tuned by us (with an assistance of your feedback) - that would give a consistent experience and would also let you know what you can expect from a MP session that uses one of such presets. (showing this parameter in server info is intended) For your convenience there still could be one more (advanced) option - a custom preset where you could set, for example, the Skill & Precision of AI to any value. We wouldn't take responsibility for that ;). That would allow you to adjust the AI if you didn't like the presets defined by us, it would allow you to test the effects of those two multipliers on the run or drastically change the mission experience without touching the individual AI units' skills inside it. (More about how they work to be found here) That would also come with separating the AI skill settings completely from the other "difficulty" settings, that serve mainly the purpose of "helpers" (HUD elements...). ENABLE In future, we'll take a look at how we can give mission makers more options for setting units in, for example, the mission editor; for now, we're focus now purely on those global settings: how would you like to adjust the AI globally? I know it's interconnected with per-unit skill settings, but let's say we can - just for a moment - forget about that ;)

A2OA features new post process effect SSAO . Depending on game settings and fillrate (shader performance) of your graphics card, this may lead to lower frame rate. However, we implemented simple but useful scheme to allow customization of pp effects (based on your personal preferences and also system performance): Disabled: color corrections only Very Low: Disabled + filmGrain + radial blur + dynamic blur Low: Very low + bloom + rotational blur + other scripted post process effects Normal: Low + DOF + lowest SSAO High: Normal + medium SSAO VeryHigh: Normal + highest SSAO Please note that this setting is not directly equivalent to that of Arma 2. Also, disabled - low primarily allows you to customize game appearance, Normal - Very High is heavily affecting performance but SSAO quality is the only difference.

I have a unit preplaced from editor. when the mission begin, i have an addaction for the players , that can use this unit (movements, waypoints) so far so good. while alive player everything is under control because the script continues. i want ,if the player is dead or disconected for some reason, the unit go back to the initial position and some actions that made before killing or disconnection also remove.(ex. spawned vehicles ) how can i do that? edit: also how can i lock the unit so when a player use it , the other players cant ? same thing here..... i need to unlock when player dies or disconected
