Issue with Third-Person View on Custom Difficulty Using a Hosting Server
Satan Lee posted a topic in ARMA 3 - SERVERS & ADMINISTRATION
Hi everyone, I'm facing an issue with enabling third-person view on my hosted Arma 3 server. Here's what I did: 1. I set the difficulty to "Custom" and enabled third-person view in the server configuration through the hosting site's provided options. 2. Despite this, third-person view doesn't appear as enabled in the launcher or in-game. 3. I suspected a mod conflict, so I removed all mods, but the issue persisted. 4. I tried using a mission file provided by the hosting server, but it didn't solve the problem. To troubleshoot further, I even purchased another server from the same hosting company. Without changing any other settings, I set the difficulty to "Custom" and enabled third-person view, but the launcher still indicated that it was disabled. The hosting server's support team checked the configuration and confirmed that third-person view was enabled on their end. However, they suggested contacting the Arma developers or mission creators, as they couldn't offer further assistance. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Could it be a problem with the game itself, or am I missing something? Here’s the final message I received from the hosting server for reference: > "What exactly is the issue here? The third-person perspective is set in your config. > If it still doesn't work, you may need to contact the Arma developers or the creator of your mission, as the parameter is 100% correctly set on our end. Unfortunately, we cannot offer any further assistance." I’m unsure how to proceed from here. Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated! -
server setup Setting a Server problem: Not public, can't connect (not even my own)
Garret Wayne posted a topic in ARMA 3 - SERVERS & ADMINISTRATION
Hello! My recent and ever existing problem was that whenever I try to host a server ( as basic the basic method of ingame multiplayer/host a server/ ) none of my friends seemed to find it, either by direct connecting or searching for it in the server browser. I also tried it with port forwarding, which didn't work either, not even with a static IP, not even configuring my ESET security program. So then a couple of days ago I tried again, basically went through the same process to get the same results, so I moved onto making a dedicated server (hoping that it could be reached ), following this guide : I did everything "by the book" (using Arma 3 server tool, setting it up, etc...) , but the UPNP never got enabled so the server is not visible for the public (...and neither for me for reasons unkown at this point) even though I fixed the problem with the mismatch of steamappid (by alternating it to the expected volume) . So as of now I would like to ask for experienced help in the matter of making at least this dedicated server up and going...! Current things I have tried to make UPNP enabled (recently) : - checking IF it WAS enabled (both in my router and my security system) : IT WAS ENABLED - Setting up a rule for Eset Internet Security to enable the given ports needed for Arma 3 (server tool) to work with (still UPNP was not enabled when running the server) Previously with a friend of mine we have also tried to use Hamachi in order to be able to connect to each other via the default (or listening server/ basic ingame) server hosting method, but it failed even after several attempts, as the server/ game I hosted never showed up in the "LAN" part of the server browser (either ingame or at the launcher). I hope someone will be so kind and resource to be able to help me, but I'm thanking in advance for any help and suggestions! I am trying to be as fast at answering as possible (as I would like to solve this problem ASAP)
