    Interlakes

    I admit this is what I wanted Contact to be: Ravage team? DayZ team? DLC expansion?! Alien Apocalypse Survival horror?! Please!!! Original link https://www.gamingbible.co.uk/news/pc-pc-interlakes-is-basically-war-of-the-worlds-and-we-are-here-for-20210712
  2. Been a long time, new work project tiring me down so no ARMA for a while, but I was thinking about this project and others, what about underground? With the new deformation tools, your can actually plan real underground paths under the ground floor. It could be sewers or tunnels or even hidden bases for corporate fascists...
  3. I just wanted to wish everyone on this forum, ARMAholic, ARMA modders and all the new MP friends I have made within the ARMAverse. Truly a great group of players and game enthusiasts on a different level here (mostly) despite we're always complaining, critisizing , "discussing" about bugs, missing features, bad cpu performance, bad AI, server lag, cheaters, DLC value and etc... BIS, modders, server owners and players really make this community worth engaging. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone. See you on the forums and servers.
  4. I use TPW (Fall OFF) and ACE with medical OFF! I use PIR on... It works so long as you disable all medical blood and use one or the other. Personally I use Bloodlust so I turn off all Blood/medical mods to enable it. But always good to have options and share info with everyone.
  5. What if the big mod teams or new mod teams popup and make Arma 4 amazing? Worst case - we still have ARMA 2 (yes) and ARMA 3 and maybe DayZ engine to play with... As long as the game engine is moddable, ANYTHING is possible. Look at how ARMA 3 become a great milsim but modders made great mods like RHS, Cup, Cytech, Ravage and incredible cDLC?! As long as the engine is open and has a great framework, it (eventually) can be wonderful!

    Can I ask if you will consider this mod for DayZ SA since it is nearly the same engine? Or would configurations be different?
  7. My old system - 4790K, DDR3-2400CL10, 1060GTX, SSD - Reforger gets ~ 40 -60 FPS if I turn down the shadows and grass to low. Those kill my system and I do not know if that is GPU or CPU scaling since this old workhorse does not have enough room to test it further.

    Chernarus and Livonia

    But Dayz is a full working game with those two terrains already. Did you want Reforger units, guns or gears in DayZ? There are tons of mods for DayZ now including Helis. Maybe port Reforger Everon to DayZ instead?

    Remnant

    Maybe for DayZ SA since that game is more mature? or does Reforger have Enfusion Script which does not exists in DayZ SA?
  10. I'm still on the classic ARMA workhorse of 4790K + DDR3-2400CL10 + 1060 GTX. It works well at most online scenarios and when I review what is available to carry into the future, I am excited but also deflated when I look at today's or yesterdays pricing. I think a good budget buy is really a 5600X or 12600K with FAST DDR4 on a B series MB and call it day. Some OC must be done to get the max out of it. Or buy better like a 5800X3D with FAST RAM and good quality AIR cooler. This is one setup that really stands out in terms of HEAT output vs performance at NEAR 12900K levels in most games. Just amazing buy for the money actually with no need to worry about water cooling.
  11. Maybe you can assign another user to upload the mod for you to the Steam Workshop on your behalf. Hate to see everyone de-synced from this must have mod! PS: Wasn't there an edit of your mod that ONLY had blood spurts and blood splashes before? No gibs or etc...?
  12. He turned OFF the ecores as well so you can try it to see if it will boost your performance and Overclock.
  13. Until Nvidia and BattleEye fix their problems, play ARMA 3 off your PC, NOT Geforce NOW. Just set your settings to STANDARD if your PC is not fast enough to increase performance at the expense of graphics quality. You can raise the TEXTURE quality to high or very high and it will be nearly the same as Ultra visually but keeping much better performance.
  14. You can try to go back to the previous tier to play the game. But seriously, you can just buy the BASIC ARMA 3 for like $5 on sale. The Christmas sale is coming up so think about how much you play ARMA 3 vs the weird inconvenience of using a streaming service for such a complex game.
  15. There is a near complete asset migration path from RV to Enfusion to be made available, not counting upgrading any of the assets. So models, geometry, textures, sounds and maybe animations should still work as is. But developers do need to learn Enforce scripting but I am sure there will be samples to show how to do it. It does not mean there is no work to be done but we can look at the examples in DayZ SA and the related workshop to see examples now. Lastly, HOPEFULLY Reforger will be made available with asset samples as baseline so just "port" over only assets that do not exist in Enfusion/Reforger to kick start it. I know easier said than done, but it is a start and ARMA 4 will be based on Enfusion anyways so all that new skill will go towards that game when it comes. Hopefully before many of us retire! :P
  16. The AI has to be re-written from scratch or updated from DayZ or Carrier Command since the scripting is Enforce based, not SQF from ARMA 3 engine. The FAQ says it is more like C++ so all scripters will need to learn more organized coding techniques but the payoff is better code in the long run.
  17. You know that weird Geforce NOW stream gaming is actually a cloud server running ARMA and streaming the video over to your PC. BattleEye is probably detecting it is not running on its own PC, but in a software "virtual" PC as you stated and not allowing it. There is nothing BIS can do about it. You have to contact the BattleEye team to update their protection to allow running on Virtual Machines like GEFORCE NOW game streaming. I can understand if you have a FAST internet connection but relatively weak PC, but if you have a GOOD PC with FAST CPU and RAM with at least a 1060 GTX video card, you can run ARMA 3 on your own PC really well. On Sale ARMA 3 is like less than $10! Christmas sale is coming up so I recommend you consider this option.
  18. Try to OC your ram and LOWER the latency. I think you can increase the voltage a little then lower the latency. You should try to place a fan over the RAM because it will get hotter with more performance but ARMA eats up lower latency fast ram along with high IPC cpu. Do a search online for your RAM model and type in OC to see what settings other have used.
  19. @icebreakr I suggest you add a cheetah or pack of cheetahs as well based on my Safari trips. Also, you can try to contact Devourer King and A Small Dinosaur for animation help. He IS an animator and also made the really cool EMU (Australia only) pack for Liru Which is included his Necroplague Mutants Pack: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2616555444 You might be able to ask to scale up the EMU (Australian Bird) to an 9 foot tall Ostrich (African Bird) and offer you a custom version for your terrain. This is the invite for Devourer's discord so you can contact the dev team and see if they may be able to assist you: https://discord.gg/g3aKAfu7
  20. My bad. I forgot about mod inheritance. Yes. CBA is required for many mods as pre-cursor mod. You can try these other mods to speed up the slowness in the game: Ladder Tweak - climb up ladders about 3x https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1803586009 Swim faster with any uniform: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1598735666&searchtext=swim+faster Enhance movement rework so you can perform running jump over things instead stepping over it- make sure to download the old Enhance movement as a dependency https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2034363662&searchtext=enhance+movement And turn OFF stamina limitations under GAME OPTIONS so you can run all day. If you do not, you will get tired and slow down. ARMA is a huge game and you need all the speed you can to get across the terrain to get an objective if you are being hunted by a ton of AI. Enjoy.

    low fps on 3070

    In Vanilla ARMA, I get about 90 FPS in the main menu with these settings on my old system (I7-4790K + 1060 GTX) Set graphics to Ultra Set the SHADOW distance to 50m or less <I have 1060 GTX that is why> Set Shadow QUALITY to LOW or NORMAL Set Vsync to OFF After you have set up your CPU and RAM settings, you should get something crazy like 100+ with your old setup. You can adjust the SHADOW quality and distance to see how it affects you. I would max out shadow at 200m at best to keep FPS high yet look nice. My 1060 GTX gets killed on shadows. If you want even MORE FPS Set the TERRAIN to LOW or STANDARD - it will basically limit all the objects Set the OBJECTS quality to STANDARD But keep textures to ULTRA so it looks sharp I do this sometimes on Livonia or a PVPVE server such as ARMA 3 Survivor <basically a Dayz clone> as the entire game is PVP. For coop or SP games, I set all the graphics to Ultra except for shadows quality to low and distance to 50 m or less. Lastly, if you OC or tune up your RAM, set a fan to blow air over it. My RAM is DDR2400 CL10 and I have to keep a fan on it as it gets HOT during ARMA. ARMA eats the CPU and RAM performance all day.

    low fps on 3070

    I am unsure if your RAM is Samsung B-Die or Hynix. So what you can do is download the Ryzen DRAM calculator https://www.techpowerup.com/download/ryzen-dram-calculator/ and run it to advise you some better RAM performance settings and try it to see if it works. If it does, then re-run ARMA 3 with the new RAM settings. If stable, then try to set your CPU to turbo at least one core up to 5 GHZ if possible using this guide on Ryzen Curve Optimizer: https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/amd-curve-optimizer-5800x-5100mhz.435146/ Try to get your system stable at the highest speeds. It should help boost your ARMA performance tremendously.

    low fps on 3070

    What kind of motherboard and RAM do you have? You need to setup your CPU to turbo at least one or two cores to the max and tune your RAM settings. Your RAM SHOULD be set to 3733 MHZ with the lowest latency and 1:1 Infinity Fabric lock if possible. It will boost your CPU to RAM performance tremendously in ARMA and other applications.
  24. Try it. It works with all Vanilla content and currently seems to be working with all the DLC and cDLC regarding animation speed ups. There is a "camo" visual adjustment in the Realmod as well but that part might need adjustment for the new uniforms.
  25. Here they are if you guys cannot find it but its not really that hard: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2127693591 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1992458889
