rory_pamphilon 16 Posted October 4, 2013 Hi Rory, where can I download your mission besides steam workshop. I would like to take a look at it. thanks. Hi John, Sorry bit of a noob at this but you are welcome to take a look. Would i just zip up the mission folder (all the sqf's) or just zip up the pbo from multiplayer export? any suggestions of a hosting place? cheers *can email also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Spartan 89 Posted October 4, 2013 @Rory, probably the best way to share it without/outside a "workshop" would be Armaholic.com - for meny years and still that's the biggest community made content library for this game. to do so: - onece mission is ready in editor, chose option save as singe payer or save as multi player, by that you will have a mission pbo created for you by game engine - that pbo will be stored in your ARMA 3 installation folder in subfolder Missions/MPMissions - take that PBO add your credits/readme/or any other document with information you wish pack as an archive and upload to any fileshare servers or submit a mission to Foxhound and he will update Armaholic tread you already I think have for this mission. Easy as that. Any other questions let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rory_pamphilon 16 Posted October 4, 2013 Thanks John, yeah I have big plans for it, limited slightly at the moment by my scripting ability but slowly getting there :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory_pamphilon 16 Posted October 12, 2013 Just to let people know I have ported this mission over to make use of the Nimitz Carrier mod. It still requires the F18 mod also as buzzards are no use on the carrier. http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=180791024 Changelog coming soon...

rory_pamphilon 16 Posted October 28, 2013 Hello all , getting errors with this update, it's telling me I am missing vehicles (F18) and when I log into the game there are portions of the F18 missing, did I miss another update?Thanks Hi, It sounds like you don't have the F18 paint job pbo installed properly. Id delete the @f18 folder from your arma 3 installation and redownload the mod from the links on the first page here. I have recently set all F18's to have custom paint jobs on the carrier so that's the reason ur having errors and unable to see the textures. get back to me if your still having problems :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
