!Thank's for the Quick Reply, I will give that Scrip thinggy a try. But please let me give You a !BRAVO & WELL DONE for Your the Hostage Script. It works just as You state. Aster installing it this is how I tested it: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. I placed on a Altis map, 1 NATO Bluefor Officer (Playable) (me) about 1000 yds away from a house with 1 Optfor Rus Officer (AI) and 1 Bluefor Engineer Sgt. as the Hostage. After several failed attempts I managed to kill the Optfor officer and approach the hostage. I found him just where i had placed him standing up wearing a blood soaked bandage. However, he standing there with his rifle. I then resolved to replace him with a civilian. 2. For my next attempt I gave the Optfor officer 6 guards and added 5 men and a car to the Bluefor side. After winning this fight, I approached the civilian hostage and tried to get him to follow me, then I realized that this is ARMA and not Counter Strike.. 3. I went back to the editor and placed a End 1 Trigger near where the hostage was standing to end the mission. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So here are some features I'd like to see added to Your Hostage script. 1. If a Soldier is used remove all of his weapons. (I don't know how to do this yet) 2. Having the hostage sitting down or standing with his hands on top of his head would be nice. 3. Have the hostage loot or grab a weapon from a dead soldier. That's all i can think of at this moment. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I do have a few more ?'s. 1. Should the AI Hostage be made Playable when in a SP Game 2. Included in the download were what looked to be some sample missions. How do I play them? Are they SP 0r MP? 3. After the rescue, i'd like to have the hostage follow me or move to a location for his evacuation. How do I give the hostage a Waypoint? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So, even without the tweaks i suggest Your Hostage script is !VERY NICE.

!Hello There; I just found Your Hostage Script and I hope it is what i need for a mission I'm making. I'm still a bit new to Arma 3 so my questions may seem noobish. I have not installed the Hostage Script yet but I will attempt to use it tonight. However, I do have a few ?'s for You --> 1. Lets say I use the Stratis map and place 1 Bluefor Nato Officer (Blue) with myself as the 'Player' about 100 yards away from 1 Optfor Russian AI Sharpshooter (Red) who will be guarding the hostage. Can I use a Bluefor AI or Civilian AI as the hostage? 2. How close does the Optfor Sharpshooter need to be to the hostage? 3. Will killing the Optfor AI guard release the hostage or do I have to do something else? 4.Where in the Arma3 folder do I place the Scripts folder You mension in your readme?--> "Or better yet, put it inside a folder called "scripts" and change the path above to "scripts\hostageScript.sqf" (Where do I put this scripts folder?) C:\user]doucments\Arma3\? 5.What and Where is the path I'm to change located? C:\user\documents\Arma3\?

Lets say that I spawn into a game using my new SP Stratis mission as a NATO Officer with a AI NATO Fire team under my command . But in the first battle I get killed. I then use the Switch Team thinggy to respawn back into the game but the player I;m now playing as, has no men to command. I head back to where I got killed and along the way I see some of the other AI NATO men is there a way for me in-game, to get command of them without restarting the mission over?

I installed Your Killticker addon last night and It works just fine. I being from the Counter Strike and BF1942 (Desert Combat Mod) era not seeing some sort of counter or ticker on my A3 game screen made my missions look a little naked. Now I don't have to wonder about whom killed who. The installation instructions you included were clear and easy to follow. I will use it on my A3 dedicated server when I finish building it. !Bravo & Very Well Done, P.s, This killticker addon of Your's should be an option included in Arma 4..

Thank's for Your reply theo1143, Can You please tell me what "Ace" is and where to get it? I'm still a noob about Arma 3 addons and etc..

I'd like to try this on my Stratis missions but i'm still new to editing Arma 3 files. Question about addind lines to my Arma 3. Can You please explain these instructions a little, ----------------------- Installation / To test this out: Move the folder Heli_Repair.Stratis into your Arma 3 missions folder Probably here - C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Arma 3 - Other Profiles\Soolie\missions Load it up in the editor --> ? Load what into the Eden Editor? If you mean that there will be a mission called Heli_Repair_Stratis to load? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To add this to you're mission: Copy the content of "init.sqf" and "description.ext" Paste at the bottom of said files in your mission --> ? A few days ago to get a respawn script into a Stratis mission I made. I had to place an 'init.sqf and a description.ext file in the folder of my mission. Those two files were not there prior to adding the respawn feature. The instructions of Your addon. say to copy and paste what on Your init.sqf and description.ext files to the init.sqf and description.ext files that i already have in my Stratis mission? Or is Your addon just for Your Heli_Repair_Stratis? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Put "Scripts" and "SFX folders into mission root (with mission.sqm, init.sqf etc..) -->? What do You mean by 'mission root'? Can I please get the exact locarion i.e, C:\User\Documents\Arma3\??????? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Change options in "helipadInit.sqf" and "helipad.sqf" -->? Where do I find these files to do the 'option change' I'm sorry that I have to bother You but not bring very good at programming and scripting. i just like to setup abd run dedicated servers. i do like to add mods addons to games i host (L4D2, CSS, CSSGO, Killingfloor and some BF1942 to BF4). I understand how to modify or edit when i have clear and simple to understand instructions. Please Help.

Sorry, I saw Your usage info. I just don't understand how to do those cfg. things without a little help. I saw some sheep on the Stratis map near the radio/tv/Micro wave towers. Are those Your Mod's stuff? if they are then i guess TPW is working. However, if they are not TPW mods I still need some sort of simple tutorial just get started. i learn pretty fast after that basic start-up phase is in my understanding. But maybe we can start here. I know how to use Notepad. Is there a way to edit the existing files in Your mod? If so, please tell just what file to modify? so I can get started.

!Hello TPW, I've downloaded and installed Your Mod so I guess it will work ok. I just need at this time to dress up my SP Stratis SP mission with some civilians, I don't wish them to do any fighting. I just want them for to be hostages in or near a building on the Stratis main airbase. My problem is that: I can't find a simple tutorial about just how to use a TPW MOD., I'm new to Arma 3 with a Steam install. I'd like to find or get a simple step by step tutorial that will teach me how to use Your TPW Mod or Mods. I'm not a scriptor or programmer I'm just a server operator. I'm still a bit uneasy placing scripts in the init in the Eden Editor but i can follow simple directions. .Please help........DBD....

I also love Your SSPCM. I had it working ok until I added a few other mods. Now I can't find or remember just where to find 'cheats' on the menu bar or if i have to press a key to load it. I looked at the Steam and Armaholic sites for some simple basic setup instructions but that seems to be absent. i'm not a programmer I,m just a person that likes to setup and run servers. So I need to see step by step installing and some simple instructions on how to use Your SSPCM in game. When i start A3 (I have the latest Steam version) I see that SSPCM is there with a check mark. So I guess it's loaded? If i start the Eden Editor and look over to the left where all the mods are listed I see 'SimpleSingleplayerCheatMenu' is also listed. Can you please tell me just what to do next for this simple mission. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. I start A3 and select the Singleplayer Editor and load the Stratis map . I then save it as 'SSPCMTEST'. 2. I then place 1 NATO man as a 'player' from the Apex mod on the main airfield runway. 3. I then launch the mission. I spawn in ok ,I can run around and use the default weapons. . So I guess I now have a basic SP mission. 4. Now I want to use SSPMC. What do I do next? Or did i miss a step or something? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P.s. Do You have a list of mod that do now work with SSPMC? I will try to use SSPMC again by removing the mods I added before SSPMC went awol from my A3. Thank's DBD...
