Editing Tutorials
I am proud to present a set of tutorials for the not-so-frequently-discussed aspects of Arma 3. In these tutorials I will be going through just some aspects to enhance your missions and make them look more realistic, fun and have somewhat of a story in them.

To start off, these are some examples of what i'll be covering:

  • How to make Ai units talk in chat
  • How to perform different things with triggers(Showcases)
  • Transport for troops
  • How to start off your missions well(in vehicles or with effects)
    UAV Briefings(no mod)(showcases)

To access the tutorials, please go here:

If you're interested to see this kind of stuff, please hit me up with a post here. If you need something specific, please, don't hesitate!

Hridaysabz, I got my unit to say something when he enters the trigger but when I try to change callsign in the module to, say, Delta 3-3 nothing happens, he just stays as Alpha 1-1 when he enters the trigger. Don't know what I'm doing wrong - I created a player unit, giving him a name. I then made a trigger with all the details as you described, keeping the unit outside of its radius etc. etc. I created a module. I set all the parameters in the module as you discribed, changing it to Delta 3-3. I then dragged a line from the module to my unit to sync them. But when I walk into the trigger the callsign does not change, it stays as Alpha 1-1. Any ideas?

I've got it working now. When I sync'd the module to the unit (dragged a line to it) I was using the new GUI layout and didn't notice that I hadn't selected sync in the editing mode, it was set to insert group instead. I think I need my eye's testing, lol.

Hey you all, this post is a little off-topic.

Anyways, I spent my week building a mission for a new series called CTA. It stands for Complex Terrain Ambushes. Here you defend against Ambush in multiple scenarios. I'd be most grateful if you could check it out. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=182280542

Hey guys, It's me.

I've figured how to create sound files like over the radio and putting them in-game like all the showcases. This would help you make storylines more gripping and intense, as well as not silent. I'll be uploading tomorrow.

Important:

Our guide has just crossed 400 viewers! That's a huge milestone!

I'd like to thank everyone who has been committed to really help putting myself out there, contributing and helping you all.

Nothing could ever be so meaningful than this.

Thank you. Really.

Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you would like to be voice actors in a mission of mine?

Just need 2 roles, about 5-6 recordings in total.
