Hi. How can I make a script run when the map is opened? I tried this but it doesn't work: While {visibleMap} do {

Morning lads. So finally I've gotten time and came round to getting back on track with making custom markers. I'm currently in the process of making all Blufor, Opfor, Neutral, and Unknown markers from the "App-6aHandbook, a .pdf formated "Land component handbook" from the British Army of what all standard Nato markers are as of up till today. The photoshopping, and editing as a whole isn't a problem. My problem lays with actually getting them into Arma 3 as a mod in which people can use an place down these markers on the map either in the editor or while in-game. Any light shedded on how to do so would be great. I've seen this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/armadev/comments/1mfb0l/idiots_guide_to_making_a_custom_marker/ ,followed it, and still managed to not get anywhere. If someone could possibly just list In a step to step guide of how to do so I'd appreciate it. Cheers in advanced.

I feel like this should have been asked and answered somewhere already but I haven't found it yet. I'm working on the Takistan CUP map and have just discovered that the minarets are indestructible. This is most unfortunate since I've just spent a while working on a script to detonante an IED inside one which I was really hoping would bring the building down. I was looking into ways of destroying and deleting objects that are already part of the terrain but haven't yet been able to get it to work with CUP buildings. Is there a way?

Tried to do a search, and found alot of different things but could not to what i saw, find something spesificly like this. So, down to business... First of all, go to the "Debug Console" in the "Tools" menu you have in your Eden 3D editor. Type in the following: do3DENAction "ToggleMapIDs"; ..and press the "LOCAL EXEC" button. This will show you all the object IDs to all default map objects (once you have zoomed in close enough), such as radio towers, buildings, bridges, bushes, trees so on and so forth etc. etc. etc. Run it again to turn it off again. Now, I’ll type up an example on how to blow up a default radio tower on a map, and get a trigger to register this as part of your mission. Step 1: Find yourself a suitable target, in our case - a radio tower on the map by default. Step 2: Place a "Game Logic" on top or near it, from "Objects" in the "Logic Entities" selection (F5 (Systems) --> Logic Entities --> Objects --> Game Logic). Step 3: In that the "Game Logic" init field, type as an example: Target1 = (getPos this nearestObject 224112); // Target 1 is what the "Variable name" will be. // 224112 is the object ID of that specific radio tower/object, now visible on the map, from running the code at the top of this post in your debug console. Step 4: Place a trigger. In its "Condition" field, type this: !Alive Target1; ..and to check that this works, you can type this in the "On Activation" field: Hint "Tower Destroyed!"; Step 5: Now, place your charges - or whatever means you wish to destroy said tower/object - and the trigger should fire once its destroyed. I needed this, and have been through several posts to find "bits and pieces" of what i needed to make this - hoping it will help others as much as it has me :)

The main font family for the text next to map markers is EtelkaNarrowMediumPro. In the most recent stable branch hotfix (build 142223), the fonts[] array for this config entry was updated, subsequently changing the visual behavior of map marker text. This bug is still present in the current development branch build. Here's a before/after picture of what map markers look like: Pre-142223 : Post-142223 : I'm assuming this was an unintentional change. If it wasn't unintentional, disregard. Here's a relevant post:

u think can do some plant the bomb or something but in a medium map? plant the bomb rules: 1.- one team plant the bomb and another team defend. 2.- have time limit. 3.- if u die cant respawn unless u get the air drop, or time pnenalty . like ur game have now. 4.- if all team is eliminated another team won. 5.- when some team plant the bomb, another team have 2 min to disambly. sorry my english xD. p.s. i hope find some way of give more balance to the game im new and lvl6 some times im vs lvl16 and is a crap, sorry but i feel that.

While I've kept the IRL island name, this terrain has been largely altered from the real island for various reasons. Besides the buildings and vegetation, I've chopped the top of the mountain off, altered a lot of roads, etc. However, it does still resemble the real place in some ways. Iwagi is a small island located in the Ehime prefecture, kinda in between Okoyama and Hiroshima. I'm planning on using assets from the Apex expansion, and so it will require having the expansion to play. Right now, it's a total of 6x6km(I guess that could possibly change if it's too small). The island itself is roughly 4x5km. I'm using a cell space(hoizontal scale) of 3m, which is slightly less than what is suggested by all the Arma terrain gurus, but I'm hoping with it being a pretty small terrain it will work out alright. While I tried to keep a lot of places true to it's IRL form, I'm mostly limited to Google streets and as such I'm completely winging most of the island. Besides that, it needs to be military friendly.. so I completely chopped the top of the mountain and I'm going to put a military base there. =] I think I started working on Iwagi in February of this year. Originally, I had started with a completely custom terrain taking bits and pieces from all over the world in Google Earth Pro and piecing them together like a Frenkenstein. After a year of killing myself I decided to jump into a smaller terrain and use a real world place. This will be my first terrain for anything. Being as small as it is, I'm not sure it will be suitable for anything milsim related(hopefully I'm wrong), I'm hoping to be able to use it for Battle Royale and/or maybe some survival mods. GOALS: - I want to keep the mod filesize as small as possible. Thus, a smaller terrain with very limited user made content/models. - I don't want to require the user to have any other community made mods loaded to play on the terrain. TO DO LIST (as of 14 Sep 2016) Finish surface mask. Finish sat map. Finish watershed erosion and reservoir objects. Place random rocks. Finish rock outcrops.

Hello and how do you do? So me and buddy are playing a quick op on Lythium and buddy is new. He asks if there are different types of maps when you hit 'M' (standard bind) like climate, topographical, road maps, etc etc. That all got me thinking. Is there a way you could implement something like this? Like a little drop down that displays "Climate map" and you can hit your default action key and it switches to a climate map (obviously would have to be done the the creator and could be stored in the mod folder). Or would it be possible to do something like traces? Have multiple layers with different markings and the sort on them. So maybe Alpha 1-1 are on layer 1 and Alpha 2-1 are on layer 2 but command has access to all of them and can plan out different marks for different squads. This would be an excellent thing to have in large scale milsim communities and could even be applicable in things such as life servers. Anyways if you have any insight leave a reply. -Uncle

I would like to randomly spawn the USS Freedom in a different location on each server restart so the player has to find it, but the runway rectangle that is drawn on the ingame map kinda gives its location away! Does anybody know of a command to hide the rectangle which is drawn for each runway on the map?

I download a map from armaholic and convert it to .pew. In Visitor 3 and Buldozer i have a nice work. All objects and etc. are a good worked in Buldozer and Visitor. But after Export .wrp and Bynarize i have some ingame problems. There are no roads on the map, and neither roads nor objects are displayed on the "minimap" itself. Only the names of cities from the config. Tried a lot of options with the replacement of the roads themselves. I tried to add MLM for road models (although they worked in the Bulldozer before). Very much I ask to help or assist me and I ask a pardon for bad English. Thank you

Hello,I want to trigger when the player insert a marker on his map in a specific area, like in the prologue mission, where you have to find AAF position (youtube link : ).If you have any link or answer which can help me, please post it!Thanks.

I have a problem and can not go on and if I want to pack with Pboprojekt the PBO I always get this error. The source or terrain builder is closed and everything else is not used.

Hey, I´ve managed to get a detail map (_dt) with Super shader (.rvmat) in game. Everything is working quiet well, only that the colours are way too strong, it basically miss readys the alpha channel. Colours which should be at about 10% visibility are at almost 100%. Does anyone had experience with that problem before? Ps: For the texture, I have exported the texture_ca.png to texture_ca.paa and renamed it to texture_dt.paa. (exporting as ca works better than dt, see pictures) What the texture should look like http://fs5.directupload.net/images/170414/gn8dqwb3.png What it looks like with _ca export http://fs5.directupload.net/images/170414/x5gbdevp.png What it looks like with _dt export http://fs5.directupload.net/images/170412/ihxtojl9.png (ignore the error, solved already) Thanks for helping!

Hello! I cooked up a simple little config mod that reduces haze on all of the vanilla, apex and CUP maps. This is more of a personal tweak as the default settings made me feel like there is a constant fog hanging in front of me. I only reduced the haze as removing it completely made the terrains look bad. The fog still works fine, the shorter view distances also look fine. The only known issue is the fact the sky gradient looks a bit off. By default only Stratis, Altis and VR are enabled. You can enable the reduced haze for other maps by moving/copying pbos from the "optional" folder. For interested, I changed "hazeBaseBeta0" setting in CfgWorlds for each of the maps.

BEFORE: hazeBaseBeta0=7.9999998e-005; AFTER: hazeBaseBeta0=2.9999998e-005; Some more pretty pictures

Hello! I'm currently making a map without an airport, is there any possible way we can do this? I've had two results so far, one of them being with no input in the ILS arrays: it would end up in an airport being placed in a random location (same happens if you have no roads but just that there'll be random roads!), or in a error message of "No ILS assigned" _(if I input one empty value of like, zero) on start-up of the map. I'm gonna add one to my other map, but the one I'm currently making is an unhabitated island and there isn't much of a point for it to have one as it is sort of a small terrain of 2048x4 and the island is very narrow. Anyone have any clue what I could do? Thanks you!
