The new patchnotes mentions a few changes to Tasks, at a glance I think this may be relevant to the issues?

Quote:
Tweaked: Task-related functions:
  • Task structure and attribute indices are now defined in separate define file
  • Only changed data are transmitted over the network
  • Task variables were massively shortened to save some traffic

May need to move the task definitions to this external file?

Additionally - all public server missions need a small tweak to allow them to load following a @CBA_A3 update today. I'll get around to this at some point. So in the meantime, we need to leave it on Ursus.

It wasn't cba_a3 causing the problem, but ArmA itself with patch 1.54.
They've removed "3DEN" from the mission.sqm addons[].
Public server missions have been updated, so they should all load now.

ACE3 also had a update earlier. I also read several reports that a lot of mods have issues with the new update. So I guess we should try to see if any of our mods have issues with it.

There's a report on the BI forums that our vests are not stopping any rounds.  We'll investigate, but in the mean time be careful ....

Alexander, can you check the restricted VA and remove the Opfor RHS gear, letting me have the updated script ASAP?
I think this might go deeper, some of the internal arsenal voodoo written by BIS seems to have been changed with the update. I'll see what I can do but this sounds like a bigger job and I'm already stretched thin because of uni projects :(

I've tried a couple of things today - different mission, bikey's, server restarts.

In general the server works ok for 15-30 minutes, but then at some point it lags, and multiplayer basically breaks in a multitude of ways. New players are unable to join.
No obvious connection to what is happening in the mission, number of players or timing.
RPT logs aren't being helpful.

So until we get a handle on what the problem is (aside from it's obviously related to the Arma 1.54 update / our install / mod compatibility), the public server is offline.

Thanks for the heads up Apollo.

Any chance of a mass PM with the update?

Another Arma 3 update rolled in (25MB)

there a lof of reports of ACCES_VIOLATION erros on the feedback tracker (http://feedback.arma3.com/view_all_bug_page.php).
usually this will be referenced in the windows eventlogs.
and this sounds similar to the 3cb server problem: http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=26775
(there are some more problems related to extDB so iam not 100% sure that this is actually the same behaviour...)
