So I play Arma 3 on my Mac and love flying Helis, so I am interested in getting head tracking to work for me, even though options are sadly very limited on Mac. While OpenTrack is kind of available for Mac, I could not get it to build myself and prebuilt applications do not seem to work for Mac. (Available outputs are only FlightGear, UDP over Network, Virtual Joystick (Does not work) and X-Plane). I am not able to get any of those to interact with Arma 3 in any way. Because of this my only real option seems to be making my own custom solution. While I can get the actual head tracking figured out, my main issue is the interaction in Arma. I see three main approaches, however I still have questions on all of them: 1. Try to make some kind of existing head-tracking protocol work with my own custom solution and make it work on Mac. This seems basically impossible, firstly because I cannot find any information on how headtracking-applications actually communicate with Arma and secondly because these solutions are most likely Windows specific. Does anyone here have any pointers as to where I could find more information about head tracking protocols? 2. Make a Arma 3 Mod for a custom head tracking interface. While I do have experience making Missions and Scripting for that purpose, I have no experience in making mods. Are there any resources on or easyish ways to manipulate the payer view? How does interaction to the outside work? 3. Simulate Joysticks. This seems like the easiest solution, the actual Joystick part should be fairly easy. The main question with this is whether it is possible to make joysticks independently control the view of a player, ideally both rotation and translation? I would be very happy if I could get any answers or tips on any single one of my questions. Please also feel free to reply even if your answer might be windows specific. Any help would be welcome.

m1 mac Arma 3 Scenarios Folder Location On M1 Mac
johnweaver posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Does anyone know where I can find the Scenarios Folder for Arma 3 on the M1 Mac? Is it even possible to import custom missions there, or is the game going to ignore any files I add to the Scenarios Folder? -

Hello, I have an appeal to the admin. I have a big problem, I ask you to help. I'm a big Arma fan, I started with your first game: Arma Mobile Ops, Arma: Armed Assault, ARMA: Queen's Gambit, ArmA II, Arma 2: Reinforcements, Arma 3 + DLC, dayz Computer + Dayz Xbox One. I have a MAC, the game works very well, well, I have a problem that the Mod of a certain genre does not work, I tried to delete the game and download it back, well, the mods are not downloaded, as I understand it, after a new update, they should be downloaded automatically. I tried to enable mods manually using the Steam script, well, everything just does not work, I can not find a solution to the problem. Google translate. -
Graphics too high, crash game on startup
nathaniel.nevins posted a topic in ARMA 3 - QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
As the title says, whenever I try to launch the game, it crashes, due to my stupidly turning on bloom. Tried reinstalling, but didn't work, and forgot to backup graphics files. I'm on experimental port on mac. Any help? -
Today we're opening the public beta for the experimental client ports of Arma 3 to Linux and Mac. Please carefully read this overview page for the details, limitations and a F.A.Q. You can also contribute to the documentation here, and of course report issues on the Feedback Tracker. Feel free to discuss the ports in this thread generally, or open specific threads in this forums category. We're keen to learn how the ports work on your specific hardware / drivers / distributions. Please let us know about both your bad and good experiences as well. Even though there are some significant limitations, we hope this gives some of you a taste of Arma 3 on another platform than Windows. Enjoy!

Hello, A friend of mine and I have been trying to play together via Hamachi. He plays on Mac, I play on Windows which means we have to reverse to a beta branch (1.82). The problem, however is that he we get stuck in an infinte loading screen whilst trying to connect. Whoever is hosting gets the message "friend is connecting", but thats it. It just doesnt go on, there is only the loading screen of the island without the usual loading bar. Whats really weird is that both of us can connect to another friend, who plays on windows and also hosts via hamachi. We have tried basically everything google had to offer on the subject, from creating a new hamachi network, to port forwarding, tweaking the hamachi properties, creating a server via nitrado and using other vpn services, but nothing worked so far. Help would be very much appreciated. Even if you only play on windows: if you had any similar experiences with being stuck in a loading screen, pls answer cause I am really out of ideas at this point and could need some advice 🙂

I figure the save files will be the same, binaries, (likely not), but I can't find anything other than what appears to be the standard steamapps, common, Arma3 .. If I capture all that data, will an install on a PC figure this out, and if not, where are my saved files, Stuck on a mission and want to try to finish it on my more powerful Sim PC. I installed Arma 3 on an external drive, so Steemapps, Common, Arma 3.. I've looked for other Arma on my machine and came up with nothing, so should this include all my saved data? Thanks Tory

I think that comment is superfluous. Will indicate only that bugs do not go away even with high level graphics settings. License game from Steam. OS X High Sierra 10.13.2, the performance characteristics are given below. If somebody knows, how to fix this, please post it here.

This is a new unit**That means easy promotions and leadership rules** Players who are new to Arma are encouraged to join this unit! We would like to help you learn the game and how milsim works. The problem with most MilSim units is that they require a huge commitment. That doesn't work for players who have jobs, families, and social lives to attend to. 801BTFO's mission is to give an option to soldiers looking for realism but also freedom. We would love for you to be a part of the unit but we won't hold you to strict commitments. We do ask that you fill out an application but no interview process is required. A relaxed training session will be used to prepare you for your time in the 801st unit. We hope that you feel welcome and accepted into our community. We are a MilSim unit. We will strive for realism but we will not do so at the cost of your life outside of the milsim unit. Your training will go more in-depth but realistic communication and strategy are required during missions. Outside of missions, just have fun together. The server has been designed so that gamers using Nvidia's Geforce NOW to run the game can play. Note that there will be special instructions if that is the case but we would love to have you in the unit. USA, CST If you are interested, you can find more info including application and mods here: https://units.arma3.com/unit/801btfo

Hi, I'm running on a MAC OSX 10.10.5 Yosemite I installed the legacy port 1.76 from here: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Experimental_Ports Enter access code: Arma3LegacyPorts. This should unlock the legacyports - Legacy Build (1.76 - ports). When I launch in Steam, It doesn't even make it to the splash screen I just get a crash reporter. I have ran this game before on the same machine which was a while back this year, yet now it's unplayable. Any help would be appreciated.

I understand we aren't able to create Multiplayer servers on Macs (which sucks) but It's not that big of a deal. I also, however, can't access any of the multiplayer servers if there are any. Once I press switch servers it's just a continual spinning wheel with no end. So is this some sort of bug, or can I not access any servers on a Mac?

Aspyr media? Black Element Software? Just out of curiosity. BIS says it isn't doing it directly. I am not trying to start a flame war or "which platform is better" contest, I am just wondering what studio/company is developing them.
