Beta Patch 1.15 – ArmA: Armed Assault Talk
5258 - Fixed: Command line parameter -maxmem=xxx was not working on LINUX dedicated server.
But where is the Linux dedicated server download ???? --HeliJunkie 23:00, 23 December 2008 (CET)
Thanks so much for the Christmas Present BI!!
I do have a question concerning the following AWESOME addition.
5262 - New: Optional server.cfg entry timeStampFormat to specify time stamp for each line in *.rpt file. Possible values: "none", "short", "full".
I have tried all of the following:
timeStampFormat=1;
timeStampFormat=full; or timeStampFormat="full";
timeStampFormat=short; or timeStampFormat="short";
in the server.cfg and in the arma.cfg.
I have looked in the server side RPT and the client side RPT.
I cannot seem to get it working. Can you or anyone answer?
Thanks in advance

- I tried timeStampFormat="full"; and timeStampFormat="short"; in the server.cfg of the dedicated server and got something like '2008/12/24, 11:23:41 ...' and '11:29:18 ...' in front of each line (not at the startup-errors/warnings) in the arma_server.rpt.

- Hmm... I used the -cfg= startup parameter to change my default server.cfg file name. I wonder if that is the reason it is not working for me. I will try without it when I get home. Thanks for your reply.

- To change the default server config file name you have to use the -config= startup parameter; -cfg= is for the basic.cfg.

- Yes I use both -config and -cfg. But it does not work for me. Some combination is making this not work. I will have to start with a fresh default server.cfg.

Hey I am back home from Christmas. I can now test this...
Ok I see the problem here. I was expecting a TimeStamp on every since line entry including the first few starts lines and when I didn't see them I stopped testing prematurely and said it didn't work. Here is what I saw that trigger this thought...

As you can see the following entry types are missing timeStamps.
- "Updating base class" entries
- "Conflicting addon" entries
- "Item {item_type} listed twice" entries
- "config.cpp" errors entries
I am not saying I want to pull a Dev away from Arma2 to fix this for 1.15 Beta. I just wasn't expecting the missing TimeStamps. But I can see the TimeStamps once I am in a mission and that is what is important. This can be seen once the description.ext is processed for the mission that is being run.
