Mods not working, Arma will not start up
« on: March 18, 2017, 12:14:13 PM »
I have updated the mods and am aware of the x64 bit update. I am getting mod errors that make me unable to play Arma 3. The launcher comes up but I get an "enexpected crash" error message. I am considering completely wiping Arma 3 and all the mods and starting back from scratch, but if someone could assist me, that would be a much better option.

what mods are you trying to run the game with? Currently shacktac will break your game.

The "Approved Client-side Mods" thread has been updated with a new version of ShackTac.

I don't have and have never had STHUD, so that is not the issue.

Have you done the "Verify Integrity of Game Files" check yet?  I would start there.  It's under Arma 3 > Properties > Local Files.

Does it crash with no mods loaded?

If not, then slowly add each mod in and start the game until you find the one that's crashing it.

Redownload and reinstall that mod.

I tried what CPL Garcia said, and the problem appears to be the "506th" mod. I just updated this 2 days ago. Does anyone have the link to the correct one, maybe I didn't update it right.

Also make sure when you update any mod you need to delete the old mod before putting in the new one
