Recent betas + SLX = no ambient civilians

[tpw]

I've been having a few other issues with betas recently so didn't notice until today that beta 75445 will not spawn ambient civilians or vehicles if I also use SLX (2.3) and CBA (0.70). Behaviour is very reproducible:

1 - Load Arma2 Combined Ops + SLX + beta 75445 (or 74858, 74630)
2 - Load Zargabad into editor
3 - Load any soldier into the centre of Zargabad and the ambient civilians expansion and vehicles modules
4 - Hit "preview" and enjoy the total lack of vehicles or civilians

Repeat as above but don't use SLX, and civilians and vehicles spawn as intended.

Repeat but use SLX and and earlier beta such as 73311, and civilians/vehicles appear.

Can anyone else confirm this one? Does the problem go away with full patch 1.55? I can post more info if needed.

Cheers

Same with ACE.

1.54 + ACE = ambient civies working OK
1.55 + ACE = ambient civies don't work
1.55 vanilla = OK

I'm surprised noone actually mentioned this.

(nvm, seems it's CBA-related problem)

Maybe it's simply because there are not that much ACE users compared to the general count of players.

It is indeed. There were a couple of updated CBA files released which fixed the problem. V0.71 should be out soon.
