0.9.7.91

General bugs

• The movement of the player camera isn't fluent when playing with a controller and a 30 FPS limit.
• Tasks placed by GM don't disappear when the required objectives are completed.
• It isn't possible to use Steam overlay to connect to a player who is hosting an in-game server.
• Entering a turret while sprinting deforms the character.
• Using the RMB in the quick-heal menu in the inventory darkens the screen.
• Vehicles get sometimes stuck in the First gear. Stopping and restarting the engine fixes the issue.
• Switching seats in a vehicle at the same time as exiting the vehicle can break your character controller.
• Two players getting in a vehicle at the same time break the character controller of one of them and may block the seat until the player disconnects.
• Two players switching seats to the driver seat at the same time can cause a minor desync.
• It isn't possible to activate Free building on a truck that was inactive for more than half an hour.

Addon downloading gets sometimes stuck or fails when connecting to a server

• Addon download gets stuck if you try to download an older version of an addon you already have downloaded.
• Addon download gets skipped if you cancel and reinitiate connection to the server before the addon download finishes or gets stuck.

If you are certain your download got stuck:

• First try to restart the game and connect to the server again.
• If it doesn't help, cancel the download/connection process.
• Try to initiate the connection to the same server again → You will see a list of addons that need to be downloaded/updated → Those are likely the addons causing the problem.
• Go to Workshop and find the addons from the previous step and delete them.
• Restart the game and connect to the same server again. The download should finish successfully.

0.9.7.61

• Xbox storage space for addons is limited to 10 GB, blocking some players from downloading all the mods they'd like to have.
• Downloading of add-ons might fail if a player downloads mods in the background whilst doing other actions.
  • A workaround is to patiently wait in the downloading screen after initiating the mod download until it finishes.
  • If your addons get corrupted, and you're getting "Failed to start with the following mods" even after restarting the game, delete your addons from your device.
    • To do that on PC, navigate to the game profile folder (%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Arma Reforger) and delete the addon folder.
    • To do so on Xbox, hover over Arma Reforger in Xbox Home and press the View button, go to "Manage game and addons", and delete your Saved data.
• Some addons can get deleted after deleting and redownloading an addon without restarting the game.
• Servers fail to update addons during initiation. It is necessary to delete the addon and do a fresh install of the newer version.
• Flickering deploy screen in Tutorial scenario. Workaround is to just press space to deploy.
• Vehicle engine does not always starting when holding W. Try going backwards (S), holding R or looking at the start engine widget and holding F.
• If two players get into the same seat at the same time, one of the players might be unable to control his character properly.
• Eliminate target task might not spawn in Combat Ops.
• Dead AI character might be rarely considered alive, blocking completion of Clear Area Combat Ops task.
