It doesn't have to be teenagers. Just civilians standing up to a more advance army. Maybe have these hit and run missions, like in the movie.

Anyone know where I may find a Red Dawn type mod out there? Or maybe a group of talented mod team can make one. There are only a few USA maps. Just an idea. "WOLVERINES..!" http://images3.static-bluray.com/reviews/6855_5.jpg Sincerely, Skylez

No this is the correct place. It's already out. This is the ArmA 3 Addon and Mod discussion board. ​I had this addon or addon script before. Like I said I didn't save it. It's the only addon left I can find. So I am discussing it. If anyone knows what I am talking about, I would be really grateful! Sincerely, Skylez1

Maybe it's a script type addon?

There was an addon I had where I could use the, "Delete" key for calling a chopper. The chopper would spawn and become part of my unit. You could also choose from a list of choppers to call in. Even UAVs I think? I bought a new computer and I didn't save that addon. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance! Sincerely, Skylez1

I am trying to add the text, "One Minute Out." in a trigger. I tried it under text under effects. It won't work. I tried adding, TitleText["ONE MINUTE OUT","PLAIN DOWN"]; in the Activation box of the trigger. Still nothing. Am I missing something? Sincerely, Skylez

I am making a mission and I gave the group to move to a certain waypoint. But after the fire fight starts they stay in one place prone. Even after I move up and kill all enemy AI. They just stay in one place, instead of moving to the way point. Now I tried the FFIS addon. says I was missing the \FFIS\FFIS.hpp something. So I pasted "-mod=@CBA_A3;@FFISv1.25". The game loads. But they just lay in the same place as before. So my question is.., Is there an add-on I can get, that I can drag and drop in the Mod screen, and give me a real combat experience? Sincerely, Skylez1

Will it get the AI to keep pushing forward? That seems to be my biggest problem. Sincerely, Skylez PS. Thank you for your response.

Am I missing something? It seems that none of the Mi-24's have no fuel. Everything else seems great..!

I have read several posts about a unit changing sides. I've tired typing this in the INT box on the unit and on the activation of a trigger. CIVILIAN setfriend [EAST, 0]; EAST setFriend [CIVILIAN, 0]; I've gone in the SQM and located the Civilian and changed. side="GUER"; I don't understand SQF stuff or even how to make one. What I really want to do is make a Co-Op mission for my son and I to play as Civilians trying to escape the East. Maybe have the EAST attack us two and leave the other civilians alone. Can someone explain this to me in a way that a noob can understand it? Thanks, Skylez

I have a Co-Op mission I been working ok. It's sorta like, "Zero Dark Thrity." 3 teams of 4 have different jobs. But one team must enter a large home and search all floors. For the 2 main targets, and eliminate them. 1 team sweeps the down stairs. Other team sweeps the outside premises. Once all are eliminated. Your given orders to reboard the chopper and fly off. I got most of it working. But it needs some..? "OOMPH..!" I'm relearning mission creating. I don't know scripting. Anyone who can help me. I will be more than grateful. And I will add you to the credits. Only fair.

Along with some of my thoughts. I'm hoping whoever can help me. I'll be able to look at what you did to tweak it. And then be able to do it on my own. Thank You in advance. Sincerely, Skylez

I am making a mission where you have to destroy a supply convoy. I want fake supplies to drop out of a vehicle when a group gets out. After the attack. You have to run over to the supplies and gather what you can. ie: Food and medicine. What is the best way to do? Please note that I am new again to mission editing. I haven't made a mission in 6 yrs. ~ Skylez

I am looking for an island that has that Mid-West American feel for it. I tried FDF Podagorsk, Tasmania Island, and a few others. So I am asking the community here to help me. Also I was looking for some armed civilians. I know there are some out there. But require additional DL's. I was looking something more complete. Thanks for your help and suggestions. ~ Skylez

b2 animate ["Ramp", 1]; {_x disableAI "target"; _x disableAI "autotarget"; _x disableAI "FSM"} foreach units grp1; b2 setvelocity [15,0,0]; Like that..? ~ Skylez

I searched this for over 20 mins. I tried different ways to word it. I'm finding some posts that are close. But nothing with the command or setting I'm looking for. What I want to do is make a group move to a certain waypoint after getting out of a boat. Regardless being shot at. I've tried Careless and Full. I also tried Safe and Full. But when my guys get out of a vehicle they just bunch up and stand there. Even tried both with Hold Fire. This is driving me nuts! LOL..! If you can help. I would greatly appreciate it. Also.., I haven't made a mission for over 5-6 yrs. Since, OFP. So you may need to explain it to me, in the simplest way. TY..! ~ Skylez

TY.., Gunter you have become my behind the scenes Support Team. LOL..! I see a Victory to the next battle. We will drink in your Honor..! ~ Skylez

Thanks Galzohar and Gunter. Now my son and I can build our armies the way we want. Within reason. (LOL..!) We have a budget of points. ie: 20 troops. 3 planes = 3 tanks. Or 2 tanks and 1 plane. Stuff like that. Now I gotta learn a bombing scripts. LOL..! ~ Skylez

Can someone post a MP respawn script. My son and I are making MP battles. Where he defends from one side. I attack from the other. He designs his side defense. And I design how I am gonna come at him. We merge our maps together and move over w/e script files we needed. (ie: Parachuting in.) Save and export to MP. We select 1 of the 10 playable soldiers from each side, in the MP screen. But when one of us dies. We come back as a bird. We don't know scripting. We copy and paste from others online. But the MP respawn of the playable units. We just aren't understanding at all. So any help would be awesome. ~ Skylez

This is what I got in the trigger. b2 animate ["Ramp", 1]; {_x setbehaviour "Careless"; _x disableAI "target"; _x disableAI "autotarget"; _x disableAI "FSM"} foreach units grp1; b2 setvelocity [15,0,0]; (b2 = boat 2 and grp1 = the unit group) grp1 is the grp im trying to get to run. ~ Skylez PS. I tried to remove the {_x setbehaviour "Careless"; part. But then it says I'm missing the ";" part. So my line would read ["Ramp", 1]; disableAI "target"; _x disableAI "autotarget"; _x disableAI "FSM"} foreach units grp1; b2 setvelocity [15,0,0]; But that's not working. BTW.., I appreciate your help on this. It's a real pain in the neck.

TY, PacUK. The trigger and that command worked. But I did have to delete the, "// Ramp down" part. Kept saying invalid expression or something like that. ~ Skylez

That worked. They are moving. Only issue now is they just walk. Like they are on a sight seeing patrol. LOL..! Is there a way to get them to run? I used a trigger for that command line you gave me. ~ Skylez

Help..! I am trying to get the landing boats to lower ramp. I don't know how to script. So I tried, "b1 animate ["Ramp", 1]; and b2 animate["Ani_Ramp",1];" Both in the Act and Script areas on the waypoint. Neither one is working. Any help would be awesome. ~ Skylez

Is there any good solid mods that are EASY to INSTALL..? Something that is fun and cool effects. I tried to play the FFUR 07 and 85. But it says missing some data/dta file. Something like that. I'm new to all this. Some I don't know how to make these shortcut .exe names and stuff.

Some reason I have double pointers. One is the in game pointer, and the other is my desktop pointer. Is there a fix for this?
