Ctab Devastator Edition
130 Comments
I meant the GPS "minimap" Panel, the game settings can't disable it for the GPS only. I ask because it kind of invalidates the Ctab "minimaps" in a way.


On another note, could we get an ACE patch that removes the MicroDAGR? (Since they already have one)

you can do that via game settings
Is it possible to disable vanilla gps?

Hi, I see point 7 in the discription that "CTAB_Camera = true" can be directly added to the helmets config. So can we directly add CTAB FBCB2 and TAD to the vehicles' configs? Which custom config parameter will be used?

Would it be possible to add it to where the bearing to cursor also shows azimuth?

💀Because base game Marker rendering
* Vanilla Map with ACE "(40fps ↓)"

anyone else experiencing frame drops when they have it open in the bottom left of the screen? I go from 90 to 50 fps

Is there a guide on how to change where the android appears on screen? I am running a super wide screen and would like to have it show further to the left, but I cant decipher the code in the config file that sets the coordinates.

does anyone know how to make the android and micodagr come up like the tablet where you cant move while looking at it and be able to zoom in and out of the map

Awesome, dude! Thanx for your work!

Does anyone know how to counteract the CTAB fullscreen causing planes to cut to 0 throttle?
KajSchak 18 Sep, 2022 @ 2:33am 
Thanks man. We only got that on one map (Panthera) which also caused a lot of server freezes after the 2.10 patch. Since we have stoped playing on it, the error has not shown up again.
Devastator  [author] 18 Sep, 2022 @ 12:58am 
interesting observations which can help to localize the issue... I will take a look if I have time (keep in mind I stopped playing arma 3)
oingyboingy 12 Sep, 2022 @ 7:41pm 
I'm also having the same issue below. Sometimes when I open up the Galaxy S20 Tactical, it freezes and crashes my game. It usually happens when I use it near other players in a server.
B. Lamp 10 Sep, 2022 @ 4:22pm 
Recently whenever I open CTAB near a group of players, it crashes my game, as soon as we're a bit more spread out it doesn't, are there any workarounds?
KajSchak 25 Aug, 2022 @ 1:45pm 
Hey guys, after the 2.10 patch my errorlog is being spammed with error messages:

So I was able to use the CTab for a bit but now every time I open the CTab it crashes my game every single time I open it... Anyone know how to fix??

@Devastator

"ADS" means "Aiming down the sight" :steammocking:

Think we have any change of implementing my idea?

Tnks for the reply, still!

cTab 1erGTD [Beta]
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2262006564&searchtext=ctab
"--------
added settings (in CBA Mods Settings)
- Blue Force Tracking : Disabled, Real time (default) or at each synchronisation
- Synchronisation rate : 30 seconds by default
- Helmet Cam : Disabled or Enabled (default)
- UAV feeds : Disabled or Enabled (default)
- Use mils or degrees for heading (degrees by default)
Added ACE integration
- cTab devices are available from self-interaction menu (Ctrl + Windows by defaut)
- ACE MicroDAGR as Blue Force Tracking device (can be disabled). It provides a great replacement for cTab MicroDAGR as it provides more features.
Change group name in-game with ACE Menu

Hi, I use your CTAB edition for 2 years, which shoud be my favourite version!
Recently I found out another version which add CBA settings and ACE3(not requirement) functions to the CTAB, sounds interesting. Would you please consider adding similar features in your edition?

PS: ADS shoud be aim down sight:steammocking:
Devastator  [author] 18 Jul, 2022 @ 5:54am 
ADS? :)
R. Gonzalez 18 Jul, 2022 @ 4:26am 
@Devastador
Thanks for the updated mod, man!

But do we have any change of making the devices go off the screen when ADS?
That's a simple (and reallistic) feature since Ace Microdagger, that has never been implemented in earlier cTabs rewrites... I've been hoping for it in times...

Also, the way it is now, it prevents Scopes to be zoom adjusted when ADS, as the zoom binds works primary on the Tabs...
mommy mesa 8 May, 2022 @ 8:08am 
@Rogue The cTab has to be set up for either one side or another. Given how it's designed, it is likely not a viable option for more than one side at a time.
KrippeJaevel 22 Mar, 2022 @ 5:11am 
Hi there, my community is using this mod. A few of our members experience the game crashing when opening the cTab. Given the rtp files and mdmp files it seems that it tries to access memory it doesn't have access to (error code: c0000005). This only happens to a subset of members which has us confounded. Any chance you could get in touch and I'll try to assist in pinpointing the issue?
Rogue 30 Jan, 2022 @ 11:14pm 
Is the cTab able to track both OPFOR and BLUFOR tablet holders? Cause Im planning on doing some PvP with this
DNy the Beast 17 Jan, 2022 @ 6:23pm 
Hello, is there any chance to get an Fullscreen mode for the UAV Gunner like the Fullscreen PIP mode in the Helmet Cam section?
Devastator  [author] 27 Nov, 2021 @ 2:19pm 
then no idea. You are the only one who reports that. So I cannot help. Most likely your installtion is incorrect as I am using this mod also by our own milsim group
Veni Vidi Vpici 27 Nov, 2021 @ 1:32pm 
I mentioned no GPS slot, I have no clue where you got that reference from.

You are not reading carefully, I wrote that I created the mission using only Ctab_DE, when I'm going to start the mission on server, there are no slots showing and console shows error message mentioning Ctab (normal Ctab, that was uploaded by TF Ghost) is not present and the mission is dependable on it, so I uploaded Ghost's Ctab and mission works normally. The mission has dependency on normal Ctab, even tho it wasn't even present when the mission was created. Also Ctab_DE blueforce tracker is not working when normal Ctab is not present on the server.
Devastator  [author] 27 Nov, 2021 @ 1:59am 
if you are expecting that the devices of this mod will be able to move into GPS slot, then you are wrong. Idea behind this mod is to make vanilla GPS not usable. So without changing any server settings, just by removing vanilla gps item from players will be sufficient. You then will need to put into their "inventories" (so not their gps slot) the ctab items which this mod has
Veni Vidi Vpici 26 Nov, 2021 @ 6:30pm 
It was very freshly created mission. It runs fine in singleplayer, it doesn't work on the server when only Devastator edition is there alone. If you want, you can add me on Steam and we can take this into chat for easier communication
Devastator  [author] 26 Nov, 2021 @ 5:45pm 
Nope. It is not needed to have any other ctab. This one works stand alone. You cannot ofcourse run an old mission where you had the other ctabs in inventory or boxes
Veni Vidi Vpici 26 Nov, 2021 @ 1:46pm 
That the server must have normal Ctab loaded on the server, otherwise missions containing Ctab DE item wont load, throwing error saying Ctab is not on the server. Normal Ctab is the one posted by TF Ghost.
Devastator  [author] 26 Nov, 2021 @ 9:18am 
what do you mean with "normal ctab not loaded"?
Veni Vidi Vpici 26 Nov, 2021 @ 9:01am 
When normal Ctab is not loaded on the server, DE items cause the mission to not work and have no slots. Tested several times.
Devastator  [author] 22 Aug, 2021 @ 9:15am 
Can you send some Sound Samples?
Wardogleader59 21 Aug, 2021 @ 6:20pm 
Would it be possible to add a couple options for different sounds for the Emails?
Devastator  [author] 15 Aug, 2021 @ 12:36pm 
yes I do, Do NOT reupload
Devastator  [author] 14 Aug, 2021 @ 5:47am 
it does work. I also use ACE in my own server
SG Bernd 14 Aug, 2021 @ 4:47am 
This mod is great. The mod just doesn't work with ACE on the server.
Marki 3 Aug, 2021 @ 12:50pm 
Is it be, or ctab doesnt work if you are zeus?
youkilledma 1 Aug, 2021 @ 3:53pm 
cool! I like playing arma in side arma inside arma!
Red-Thirten 28 Jul, 2021 @ 11:05am 
Oh, I just realized that if you extended the ItemGPS class the base game would think you have a vanilla GPS and make the UI overlay available... That's not what I want either, so I totally agree with you. I was just picturing the cTab items going into the GPS slot to save gear space, but not having the vanilla GPS overlay available; but I'm not sure if it's even possible to disable the overlay using the ItemGPS class.
Devastator  [author] 28 Jul, 2021 @ 3:12am 
that was also the idea why I moved them out of GPS as it vanilla GPS was also not what I wanted to have in missions if someone uses this mod
[D3RP] Hythloday 27 Jul, 2021 @ 9:42pm 
@Red-Thirten Please no, the mod is great as is. Slotting into GPS means the default overlay mini-map becomes available. I specifically use this mod to not have that. :P
Red-Thirten 18 Jul, 2021 @ 5:12pm 
So I understand this might be a pretty big ask... But would it be possible to convert the Android and the MicroDAGR from a CBA_MiscItem to a ItemGPS? That way it could be slotted as a GPS instead of taking up room as an item. I understand this might be outside the scope of this project, but I thought I'd ask anyways :)
RodsonGreen 31 May, 2021 @ 7:44am 
How to you open the s20?
Devastator  [author] 26 May, 2021 @ 1:24pm 
unfortunatelly not (or at least I do not know how to)
PapaSwitch 26 May, 2021 @ 1:12pm 
Is it possible to add an option to change the size and/or position of the S20+jugg case? I would like to be able to move it lower into the corner, etc.
