Over at The Few Good Men club we create neat little missions and put them up for download and playtests, then post debriefings and screenshots of how we got on, and discuss what tactics we used etc, it's a great way of learning so go have a crack if you like..:)

We play a range of different PC wargames over there but our Arma2 contingent is very small and we'd like to recruit more Arma2 players so if anybody wants to join, be my guest, I'm 2nd in command and my duties include putting the cat out and running a mop over the floor when the boss is down the pub..

I'm looking for more of a step by step mission tutorial like for example making a objective in capturing a known terrorist and or placing how to make a mission without scripting that is still good. I just don't understand scripting but I try. Thanks bravo409 out

Hi bravo409

In order of simplicity:

There are several mission editor tutorials on Youtube.

That one comes from the ArmA official Youtube channel.

http://www.youtube.com/user/ARMA2official#

This search of Youtube reveals many more done by members of the community:

And of course the BIS wiki

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Mission_Editor

Which also has thousands of pages of additional information on mission editing and scripting. Just drill down as far as you need or use the search function.

You can also use Google site search for refined searching.

And then we have the mission editing section of this forum

http://forums.bistudio.com/forumdisplay.php?f=93

There are also manuals you will find links for there.

Kind Regards walker

This is the mission editing tutorial that I used when I started making scenarios:

Unfortunately the pictures don't work and the tutorial apparently is under "overhauling" :( - I hope that the OFPEC staff fixes it quickly.

Good luck!

You can try the good old ArmA Editing Guide written by Mr-Murray for the first steps (its written for A1 but basics are still the same):

Armed Assault Editing Guide - Deluxe Edition

We have a whole forum dedicated to mission editing questions.

And if you would have searched for some time, you would have found it plus a couple of FAQs and Tutorials.
