How to make a Dedicated server with ACRE?

Recommended Posts

Hi, im pretty new to Arma. When i want to play multiplayer with my friends, i just start a game by pressing the 'New' button in the multiplayer section. However, i want to run a dedicated server.

Here are some questions:

1.How can i set up a dedicated server

2.Can it run Domination (And save the parameters)

3.Im totally new to ACRE - how is it installed?, do players need it installed?, any other requirements?

Thanks

For Domination you will need to own OA, and you need Domination which can support ACE and ACRE. Well any Domination has ACRE support but not all have ACE. Usually ones that have ACE support have it in their name. You can find Domination here > https://dev-heaven.net/projects/domination/files

For ACRE only you need CBA addon on server and ACRE, while players will need all that and plus Jayarmalib. And if you use ACE then you will need it on server and players will need it too.

So checklist will be > Domination with ACRE only > CBA + ACRE on server > CBA + Jayarmalib + ACRE players

> Domination with ACRE + ACE > CBA + ACE + ACEX + ACEX_RU + ACEX_USNAVY + ACRE on server > all whats on server + Jayarmalib + ACEX_SM optional

Not really simple but once you learn it its a breeze.
