Getting Started Information Request

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am an experienced developer and have just got into the Arma3 sim. Been playing a lot and really love what the alpha has to offer so far. Would love to get involved developing some mods. Could anyone give me a heads up of where to get started? What are the tools for key signing etc? Any information would be hugely appreciated, and specifically for Arma 3 please.

Tools are used from ArmA 2 at the moment as BIS did not release new ones.

Pretty much tutorials from ArmA 2 work in ArmA 3 so not much changed in modding style beside making few new points in Oxygen and in config files.

Thanks for the links Sakai. i'll take a look.

I have no experience modelling, and im not interested in doing that. I want to initially build some UI tweaks and changes, things like stance indicator, unconscious when shot etc. I know these mods exist but i just fancied building them for my own satisfaction and learning. Then i'll come up with some more ideas to bring to the community. Im a developer and just want to get balls deep in this game code.
