Handle1 10 Posted May 15, 2014 Hello there. I and my team want to participate in the Arma 3 contest. My team and I have never modded an ArmA game before but we do have some programming background, and are all eager to participate! Could someone provide some links to resources that explain things like scripting/modeling/mapping, etc.? I have done research online and found a blog and the modding wiki but I really don't know where to begin with that. Everything is separate and hunting down features to use is going to be difficult if that is the only way. Any resources/links would be of enormous help to us. Thanks!

GrumpyRhino 30 Posted May 15, 2014 I spent a lot of time in the editor, doing trial and error. Besides that, I look at how others create scrips for their missions.
