haleks 8212 Posted May 18, 2022 When are we getting a proper Reforger sub-forum? By the way... I can't wait to get my hands dirty on that shiny new toy. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EO 11275 Posted May 18, 2022 I'd imagine when they're finished decking out the Reforger Discord, hopefully they remember there is still an active forum here. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EO 11275 Posted May 18, 2022 Just my own opinion/observation but yes, moderators and devs are active more or less all day everyday on Discord. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EO 11275 Posted May 18, 2022 Getting back to the OP, there is a scenario tutorial on the Reforger Wiki, although it's primarily for setting up a new Capture@Hold mission. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_Reforger:Capture_%26_Hold_Setup 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

celludriel 79 Posted May 18, 2022 I"m already excited it's a full object oriented language now instead of a functional script SQF was. Not that SQF was bad, I'm just a programmer that enjoys OO. I do however think that due to the added complexity of having a full blown programming language and dev toolkit we need a good way to share scripting information. - Subforum would be nice - There is already a discord apparently what is the server ? - Are there any old Arma 3 scripters that have big plans ?

Blackheart_Six 283 Posted May 19, 2022 ^^^^THIS ^^^^ Great info. I asked yesterday on discord and one of the mods said today the forums would be up. But no joy. We need to have a forum if the community is going to learn. Discord is not the tool to work out problems, and post code, scripts, etc. Until then create topics here. Maybe they will get the idea. There is some good wikis coming out. I thought I heard that with workbench, you can create all your own stuff, end to end. For example, place a custom vehicle in a mission, create the mission or scenario, and those assets would be available to everyone. No more needing players to have all the mods, they would be part of the mission, pushed out to them. Can anyone comment on this? There are some great things to come I am sure.

Agreed 2. All the discord servers are under Arma 3. I know Roy86 is already reworking Patrol Ops 4, and pushed out a place holder to the workshop.

Pretty much this, As much as the new Editor is honestly amazing and powerful. After sat doing software developement all day the old eden editor was a blessing for when you either wanted to quickly test a proof of concept or just do stupid stuff like attach AA guns to camels.. Although I highly doubt it would happen. An API to allow the C based language and bringing back 'SQF' through ingame editor to allow best of both worlds would be amazing, There was some great devs in a2/a3 that wouldn't even try to make stuff if its kept the way its currently is.

jeza 5416 Posted May 19, 2022 It would be nice just to get some official clarification re an eden like mission editor and SP/Coop for reforger I believe it is a pretty popular question, hope they can give some info soon as personally PvP is the last thing I play an ArmA title for. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, something official would be nice. Personally, I don't expect a proper Eden like editor in Reforger, maybe some expansion of the Games Master, including saves, but that's about it. I mentioned this in another thread, but any ingame editor would have to be made for consoles, and there's no way you could do complex mission editing on console. What we need is a proper Eden like editor included in the Enfusion workbench tools. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggyluv 2135 Posted May 20, 2022 Well even if it just got streamlined and of course gives us the ability to Save a scenario. Seen a guy on youtube trying to make a co-op mission and it seemed to take him hours just to get some cohesive AI groups spawned and given waypoints -that aint acceptable. Also dont know if anyone remembers but there was a modder who basically built a makeshift 3d editor before Eden even came out -i built a few really cool missions with it but the only problem was it required any mission user to also have that pretty hefty Addon -felt bad for the guy when Eden came out as that was a real labor of love project.
