Trouble getting map into Arma 3!

Recommended Posts

So I decided to get into making Islands....and wow is it tedious. Anyways I followed some guides to get the BI tools downloaded and get a map made in L3DT, and then went over to the wiki to see how to get it set up in visitor3. I can get it into visitor and exported then use BinPBO to Binarize it into a @ folder in my arma 3 directory. I even see it under expansions.

Here is the launch command I use for the a3 shortcut - "C:\Game Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\arma3.exe" -mod=@Worchise -nosplash -window - Worchise is the name of the map. Anyways when I start it up, it goes to the menu and there is no way for me to get to the map in the editor.

The only thing contained in the map is just the textures and the terrain, I haven't placed any objects or anything yet. So anyone able to help? I will upload the .log file in a bit. Here are the links to the guides I used as well:

To get the terrain into Visitor3 and to binarize I used this: From Visitor 3 down

Edit : Here is the .log file generated in the addons folder

How's your islands config file look?

I think in the log file it should say the name of your island towards the end which I don't see. You did export the wrp file correct?

Im not sure I have a config file, I exported my world from L3DT as a xyz, then imported into visitor then exported world as a wrp like it said to in the wiki, then binarized my P:\Worchise_map folder

Ok so are you using arma3 bulldozer setup then? Because I noticed that let's you run buldozer without importing your satellite and mask image which can lead you into trouble.

My suggestion to you would be to run through sgt. Aces tutorial like you are doing but actually stick to the tutorial and not use your own island yet. It's confusing enough as it is now don't confuse yourself even more.

Now remember these tutorials are for arma 2 so try making an island there first then when you build up a strong base you can easily transition over to arma 3 island building.

There's also an excellent guide by bushlurker called bushlurkers guide to micro terrains which goes over all the components to island building such as the config file I mentioned.

But start with sgt aces tutorial first. It's not as confusing or too frustrating if you start small and work your way up.
