Upon adding the debriefing option my game refuses to load the mission, saying there's some code error in the CfgDebriefing.

I installed Notepad ++ and used the plugin provided, however, the Notepad finds no errors in my syntax and i'm positive that the error is not in CFGSounds, because it was like this before and worked until I added the CfgIdentities. Edit @Larrow: Thank you a lot! That fixed it! You're my hero :D.

Thanks a lot! This fixed it! ---------- Post added at 10:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ---------- Ok.. What the hell is wrong with it now? I added the CfgIdentities and it went fubar again, even though everything is identical to how it should be.. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Armed Assault Description File // Created with ArmA Edit - Version 1.3.4000 /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// showCompass = 0; showGPS = 0; showWatch = 0; overviewtext = ""; author = "Rytuklis"; onLoadName = "01: The Invasion"; onLoadMission = "CSAT Coalition have invaded their neighbouring Altian Island.

Hello. In singleplayer campaigns when you get assigned a mission a black box in the upper screen pops up with the text "Task assigned: task name" and the assigned icon. How do I do that?

Hey guys, I need to make a convincing combat scene in the city and I need the group to appear at the designated location and start the firefight as soon as a certain event happens. Using triggers and conditions synchronized with waypoints does not give the effect I need.. I need an element of surprise..

Hello again. So I have a cutscene at the beggining of the mission (it's in the actual mission, not the intro) but I can't get it to terminate after it's done and switch to gameplay. Help?

Thank you!

Thank you gentlemen, these have worked, however, the problem is I need to spawn the Guerillas (FIA), not the US soldiers and i cant find the unit name for them. Any ideas?

At which point of the code im supposed to add the title? Can you please edit one line of that code to be correct?

WARNING! CAMPAIGN SPOILERS!!! In the first mission of ARMA III, when the island is overrun and you must reach safety with your buddy, you run to forest to get to safety. Then Sgt. Adams says "Jesus.. We're alive, but for how long?" . Did anyone else kind of a satisfied nostalgia feeling? That was the exact same words your commander says in Operation Flashpoint (AKA ARMA Cold War Assault) when the Morton attack fails and the Soviets overrun Everon, and in the next mission your whole squad is massacred. Thanks for putting this refference in, BIS, it's nice to see you still remember your old grandpa :D

Dude, I do agree that BIS campaigns have been... well.. not that good in ARMA 1 and 2, but believe me sir, just please do, BIS have done a wonderful job on Operation Flashpoint campaign. You wouldn't believe how fucking epic it is. It is just great. The story is emotional, it's very linear, it doesn't have any plotholes, when you're playing the campaign you actually get the feeling of being lost when you dont know whom or why youre are fighting. Trust me man.. You just have to play BIS's campaign of OFP.. Please.. Atleast try

I'll be honest with you, I hate ARMA II briefing system, it was much easier to make and use in OFP, yet in ARMA II everything is so damn complicated.. I still can't figure out how to make a proper debriefing. All my briefings, notes and tasks are made in game. So, for End 1 I have a file in my mission folder called briefing.htm, here are it's contents: ; **************************************************************** ; Script file for Armed Assault ; Created by: TODO: Author Name ; **************************************************************** <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250"> <title></title> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <! --- -----------------------------> <! --- Debriefings ---> <! --- -----------------------------> <hr> <br> <h2><p><a name="Debriefing:End1">Title</a></p></h2> <br> <p> The Chernarussian Defence Force was forced to retreat from Elektrozavodsk. The city has been lost to uknown enemy force. </p> <br> <hr> <br> <h2><p><a name="Debriefing:End2">Title</a></p></h2> <br> <p> Write description of End2 here. </p> <br> <! --- End of Debriefings ---> </body> </html> However, upon end 1, the debriefing text does not appear.. Help?

But that's not what I need. What I need is that in the debriefing section where your ratings are, there is a text that's supposed to summarise the mission. Effects button is completely other stuff.

I've noticed that in most missions when a task is created, succeeded or failed, a task hint in black box on the top appears. However, mine doesnt. Is there some special command for it?

How do I create the first person cutscene like the one that happens in BIS's survive campaigns? Such as when you walk into the camps and so on?

Thank you for your advice! I do indeed have play withSix and I'll go ahead and download the HD stuff.

You simply MUST play the OFP Campaign.. You don't realise how much you're missing...

I need help. AIA works, the islands work and all, and in the editor I can see CDF, US units and so on, but upon placing them in the editor and playing, they mostly appear as US Soldiers with missing vests and so on. Help?

I didnt realise its refference but now that you mention it, I remember the Code Foxtrot!! Epic!!! OMG Im so happy about ARMA III's campaign so far!

How do I switch player to an another soldier and how do I hide the previous soldier he was in? Also How do I make player for example approach a civilian, then suddenly loose control of his soldier, there is a conversation sequence, and then the player regains the control of his player?

Hello, I am trying to do a convincing convoy ambush cutscene. The cutscene fades in as the convoy is driving past the road and at the certain point it is ambushed. Now, I tried placing three groups of opfor and add waypoints to them "NEVER FIRE" and "STEALTH", then i synced them with a trigger. Once the convoy would enter a certain area, the trigger would activate by an external script and they would proceed into a farer waypoint, which says "OPEN FIRE, ENGAGE AT WILL" , behaviour "SAFE" and speed "FULL". Yet I cant get them to ambush the convoy on time, Theyre late or most of the time they get spotted by the convoy and opened fire upon, even though the convoy is set to never fire. How do i add a great element of surprise and make the convoy be ambushed at the exact time i want it to happen?

And once they approach, i set them to captive false?

Hey there. I recently came up with a new idea that I was thinking of doing, however, I'm not sure if people would be interested in it. Basically it's a brand new concept for a campaign. As you probably have noticed, ARMA II has a neat feature to switch between playable units. What I came up with is that there would be missions purely based on tactics - player wouldnt be provided with anything apart from the information that he has on the map, he would be given several squads and armored platoons at his disposals, and by using them, he would have to successfully complete the objective. He could use these units by using the switch unit key. What do you think? WOuld this work?
