Have you tried all the troubleshooting steps? Is TFAR or ACRE active?

Which troubleshooting stairs?

Turn off BattleEye
Make sure both of the above .dll files are in your Arma 3 directory
When making your faction, only load necessary mods
Start with a very small and simple test faction first (1-2 units, 1-2 groups)

Hi! Having this same issue. But I already have done the above.
All the basic troubleshooting steps.

But I have this error constantly when generating faction:

"WARNING: 2c3867bc000# 93:fmradio_f.p3d has an empty Variable Name field and will be ignored"

No cpp file was generated because of it.

Getting same error, but something to do with a space in in variable name of the unit, when there isn't one.

Sorry for the slow response, this thread doesn't give me alerts. If the cpp is not generating, make sure you have the .dll installed. Do not run this mod with ACRE or TFAR active.

Ok, both .dll's installed and no ACRE or TFAR for me. Could it have anything to do with CUP units or vehicles, or possibly RHS? I'm using vanilla NATO soldiers as the base, and mostly CUP vehicles and turrets with a couple RHS vehicles for good measure.

Also noticed that after the error message is cleared, all infantry units are invincible.

I came here hoping for a solution, I don't get any errors on mine, it says that the config has been made but there is no file anywhere, I searched the entire computer for the Config file and there is no trace of it anywhere.

Any Bump on this?

I have been able to sort this out now, so you could say this discussion is solved.

I went back to ALIVE and how I got it to work is do a "full faction export + preview pictures" which seemed to have worked, I can't say the same for Drongo's faction make though.

I think with the drongo method, you have to open something like Notepad++ and paste the config, but I believe it has to be done in a certain format. Sorry if it doesn't seem like a solution.

Any update on this? All troubleshooting steps have been done, .dlls are there and no voip mods are active. No errors, just doesn't generate the cpp

Alive creates a dependency doesn't it?
