Not ignoring anyone. Sorry guys my mom just passed away. It was Beerkan that got me onto this idea though, and really all the thanks goes to him. :) Hopefully we all get our missions converted and can concentrate on all the good stuff Beta has to offer!!

Beerkan, I noticed this is a few less lines than the previous one. So this is the complete list, correct? I might have accidently duplicated an entry (that won't hurt anything - just wasted space).

Here is the link in the original thread: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?157300-Converting-Alpha-Missions-to-run-in-Beta/page2

Converter is done - just waiting for a moderator to approve my post with the links! :)

Editor is done! Just waiting for moderator to approve my post. If you would like to give it a go you can certainly PM me, but hopefully the post will be visable soon (following the link Keerkan posted above).

Okay!! Beerkan has spent many hours updating his list and I have the application done! Note that was made using visual basic and so will install microsoft .netframe in order to run the converter. You can download the Alpha to Beta converter here: http://home.comcast.net/~ortmannj/ARMA3/ARMA3_Alpha_to_Beta.zip You can view the read me file before downloading here: http://home.comcast.net/~ortmannj/ARMA3/Read Me First.pdf Please let me know right away if you have any issues with the application. You can contact me here, or at dingo-j@hotmail.com Email is faster because I check that more often. Hopefully you will find this app useful in getting your Alpha missions up and running in Beta!! Be sure to give Beerkan a big thanks for putting in the time and effort to get us this list of changes!! Dingo-J

Hi Beerkan, I've written a small utility in visual basic that will convert Arma 3 Alpha Missions to Beta. It uses a txt file using the information you have supplied here, that can be easily updated by anyone as these weapon and other name changes are discovered. It's a very easy to use - no scripting or dos, just click a couple buttons. I wanted to make sure you would be cool with me releasing this since really it is nothing without the work you have done here! Thank you for that! I wanted to give credit since again, the whole thing only works because of what you have done. If you'd like to take a look at it, I'd be happy to send it through email so you can test it/see how it works. Sorry, I'd PM you but I'm too new to the board so it won't let me. Have a great night, Dingo-J
