Crashing in Operations - Arsenal causes and other times random.

[CPT (Ret) Whitby]

So apparently ArmA decided tonight would be the time to piss me off.

So when I get onto the server to get my gear I crashed everytime I opened the Arsenal, I then got McKelvie to get my gear thinking that was all I needed, I then started running and crashing once again.

I have done anything different today than any other day.
Anyone else got this issue?

Go to your Steam>Steamapps>Common>Arma 3>DLL folder and delete all that is there except the readme. DO NOT verify integrity of cache and just load into the game you should be fine.

Tried that, Didn't work unfortunately, I reinstalled all my mods and ArmA tonight and still no joy.

Arsenal works in Editor, just not in the operation mission.

Right,

Tested my game on TF Alpha's mission and the CAC map, All worked fine. Seems only the TFB mission was not agreeing with me.

Hmm interesting, was it a really old mission file?

i crashed also except it was an .rpt error then shortly following with a blue screen..

The only crash issues I have ever had have been fixed by searching my computer for my MPMissionsCache folder and deleting it...then going into my Arma 3 directory and deleting the PhysEx86.dll file...then verifying the integrity of my files.  But yours could be a completely different issue.  I remember during a platoon training, that I was having some random crash issues that weren't related to what I wrote earlier.  It happened 3 or 4 times, and I never found the cause, but I loaded in fine, loaded out fine...it was on the field that I was crashing.

Sometimes once a mission stops agreeing with you, you need to join a different slot when joining the mission.

And delete the _curmp.pbo file in your mission cache.

I think it's just an Arma thing and looking at those .RPT's they certainly appear to be random arma 3 crashes as opposed to fixable ones. Typically if it's fixable you'll have some sort of error at the end that will lead to the fix. Especially if it's working fine on TFA mission. All task force missions are virtually identical, the only difference is typically a few objects, time, and some different text in description/mission name. Absolutely nothing in the Arsenal is different, they are all direct copies of the main template.

I had this problem during the op of TFB. Arma suddenly crash and  leave my computer frozen like it was out of resources, it was necessary to reboot the computer. Yesterday during Platoon training with Havoc 3,  I had the same problem twice, in my third attempt I review my DLL folder and there was some files, that they had been erase before due to  problems with server login, I erase them again and then I was able to login and continue with the training. I believe this files were the problem.

Were you guys getting an exit code that looked something like 0x000000FF / 255 ?

It seems I am having a similar if not the same issue.  I have deleted the MPmissions cache folder and the PhysX3_x86.dll file which seemed to work.  Then my game crashed in the middle of OSUT and I had to do it again.

I seem to only have this problem on 506th servers.

I had the exact same issue, and I tried absolutely everything. However, thanks to CPL Nelson, I finally had a solution - delete all of the contents of the DLL folder inside of your ArmA 3 directory, except for the readme.

The issue seems to be that those dll files are what sets memory restrictions on the game for your computer, but Bohemia fucked something up and it would cause the game to not have enough memory which would result in that crash. Deleting those dll files removes those restrictions.
