Polik164 0 Posted August 1, 2020 Hey guys I'm a little stumped on what to do here, I run a small Mil-Sim community and I want to be able to turn some things off such as tactical ping, death messages, and make the enemy AI harder. I have tried to go into the server files and opened the [NAME].Arma3Profile file and have tried pasting old difficulty settings into the text file and uploading it, however, it doesn't work and none of the settings apply. Anything helps.My TCAGame.Arma3Profile: version=1; blood=1; volumeCD=5; volumeFX=5; volumeSpeech=5; singleVoice=0; gamma=1; brightness=1; class CfgDifficultyPresets { defaultPreset = Regular; // Parameters that affect difficulty and which are shared among presets myArmorCoef = 1.5;
