What is this. Example MP mission that has 4 working configurable clickable buttons in the briefing. Purely VANILLA, no addons These buttons can be configured to Open an external web page in your default browser Start and connect a client to your Teamspeak server ( If they have Teamspeak installed ) Download a file And most likely also allow you to link to your discord channel (not tested) No issues found while running with an anti virus and doesn't interrupt Arma (Tested in full screen mode with multiple monitors) DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION Download Example mission and source code Following download has a working packed (pbo) mission file and the source files Txu_InfoLinks.zip (see changelog) The example mission will (If you click the links) (Please don't spam them) Allow you to Join my teamspeak server Open up the teamspeak client download page Open up our website front page Download our clientside addon pack INSERTING INTO MISSION 1) Copy the TXU_Info folder into the root of your unpacked mission folder 2) Add the following lines to your Description.EXT #include "Txu_Info\CfgControls.hpp" class cfgFunctions { #include "Txu_Info\cfgfunctions.hpp" }; If your CfgFunctions class already exists then just copy the "#include" line as seen above 3) Open the TXU_info\CfgControls.hpp Edit the txt= and url= entries for the 4 button classes in there and your done. Also if your mission doesn't have a briefing like for example OPEX, you can comment out the TXU_INFO_FrameEHId = addMissionEventHandler ["EachFrame",{[] call TXU_INFO_fbriefingEH}]; e.g. //TXU_INFO_FrameEHId = addMissionEventHandler ["EachFrame",{[] call TXU_INFO_fbriefingEH}]; so that it doesnt attempt to display in the initial briefing screen ADVANCED EDITING You can ad parameters to your Teamspeak URL For example, automatically add a bookmark to the players Teamspeak Client as well as passwords, default channels etc Complete format: ts3server://ts9.teamspeak.cc?port=9987 &nickname=UserNickname &password=serverPassword &channel=MyDefaultChannel &channelpassword=defaultChannelPassword &token=TokenKey &addbookmark=SomeBookmarkText Parameters are optional. In most cases, specifying the host and port should be sufficient. Nicknames usually should not be specified, leave this to be configured by the users in the client. So a common URL would look like this: ts3server://ts9.teamspeak.cc?port=9987 Or simplified if only the port is given: ts3server://ts9.teamspeak.cc:9987 CREDITS The orginal concept and a working example was by Larrow His original post https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/169501-link-to-website-in-briefing/?do=findComment&comment=3277456 He is the one that deserves the credit for this. His original version only had 1 button and wasn't available in the initial briefing screen. My version has 4 buttons (I cant see you needing more than 3 really) LIMITATIONS The system uses classes to create buttons that are defined in the Description.ext environment. This is the only way I can see to pass an external URL link. For that reason it cannot be injected into the client using a serverside addon. So the only way to get this to work is as part of the mission file. That's a lot of editing for server admins and their mission devs FUTURE DEVELOPMENT If someone better at coding than me wants to rip this and optimise it more, feel free, I'll happily update the example mission and re update it. ENJOY ! CHANGELOG V.01 (Date: 18/5/2020) File: TXU_info\f\fmapEH.sqf Line 20 Changed from if(TXU_INFO_ButtonAdded)exitwith{}; to if(TXU_INFO_ButtonAdded1)exitwith{}; __________________________________________ V.02 (Date: 24/5/2020) Removed the requirement to #include "Txu_Info\CfgBaseDefines.hpp" This file has been completely removed.

Hi, I'm running a KP liberation Altis mission on my server. And i was playing for a while and trying to explode a FOB. But when i set the explosions and selected a trigger (im using ACE) it didn't go off. Then i tried multiple other explosives and they simply dont explode. No matter how. Can you guys help me out? Thank you in advance. The mods im using are : @CBA_A3;@CUP_Terrains_-_Core;@CUP_Terrains_-_Maps;@ACE_3_3.13.1_with_Old_Medical_System_(XXth);@Old_Medical_RHS_ACE_Compat_(XXth);@RHSAFRF;@RHSGREF;@RHSGREF;@RHSSAF;@RHSUSAF;@Project_OPFOR;@RKSL_Studios_Attachments_v3.01;@3CB_BAF_Weapons_(RHS ammo compatibility);@3CB_BAF_Weapons_(RHS ammo compatibility);@3CB_BAF_Vehicles_(RHS reskins);@3CB_BAF_Equipment;@3CB_BAF_Weapons;@3CB_BAF_Units;@3CB_BAF_Vehicles;@3CB_Factions;@Task_Force_Canada_(TFC-CAF);@Lithuanian_Armed_Forces;@NLDSOF_LITE_mas;@CUP_Weapons

Good day lads, so i have the isue where i get kieck off my Server and get the following Message when i get kicked.

Hi guys, I'm having a issue with our server. Since I switched from Linux to Windows people cannot find our Server anymore. When using favorites it cannot be found. When trying to join after via Steam - it says "no response from server". Only way it works is by using the launcher - via Internet tab. Let it load 3k - 4k servers - then it will be shown as available. Also very strange - the launcher shows green mods 0 / red mods 0 / gray mods 20. Do you have any idea about such issues? Kind regards Jonas

Hi everyone, I'm quite noob when it comes to the server-client interaction in arma, so please bear with me on this one. So I was testing a mission with my friend, with him being the server. I noticed that when my position was close enough to him, nothing seemed out of the ordinary, but when we're sufficiently far apart, like at least several kilometers, enemy AIs stopped responding to my gunshots (not going to alert) and will not try to engage, until I'm close enough to them (like 200m+ or so, even when they have weapons with long-ranged scope), while my friend, being the server, did not notice any problem at all (he still got sniped from 600m away). We tried some other simple scenarios and this kept happening so I concluded that it must have been arma's client-server thing. I've tried googling for the reference information about this but so far no luck, though pretty sure I'm just missing the right keyword, so can anyone please refer me to the relevant arma wiki page or any info page about this? Another question is, if this is indeed an issue with arma client-server interaction, would using dedicated server address this? Thank you in advance!

Hi to all! For my server, it was necessary to perform a whitelist for players who connect to the server. To do this, I created a separate mod that works almost perfectly, but the problem is that checking for all given parameters occurs only after a briefing. How to run a script in an addon loop for example when starting the server itself or when connecting the player to the server (not in the game - possibly in the lobby or simply connecting the mission selection screen). Here is my example implementation: config.cpp In config, we create a Security class and set the preInit parameter (I understand that it executes before loading the mission, and I need it when connecting to the server) fn_init.sqf And it works as follows: the server has a config containing an array of player data (name, guid, ban status) and an access password (required in the server configuration using the command serverCommandPassword = "010101"; specify the same password which is also in the "Security \ functions \ config.ccp"). Then after the start of the game (after the briefing) the script makes a check: 1) The presence of GUID in whiteList, if not - kick, if so then step two 2) Checking player on banned: if paremetr false - then next step if parametr true - so does the kick. 3) Checking the registered name if it does not match what is indicated in the whiteList - kick 4) If the player passes all three checks, he successfully connected the game and receives a notification in the chat "Accepted". And now my main question to the specialists (if they are still here is): How to make this script work not when the mission starts, but when the server starts? Any variations are accepted (When connecting the player, when starting in the lobby (but not further than the lobby), it can be a cycle or something). Maybe something smarter than this nonsense.

I'm running a server with my project, currently 20 slots, but could increase. I've taken on the dissension mission and i'm working daily to make it something truly amazing. Currently I've cleaned it up a lot an made it truly playable with long run times and extensive fixes. I'm looking to find people interested in playing as I've made something very fun, taking into account my real world experience to guide development in conjunction with some fun. The server makes a CTI island war truly persistent as the dissension framework saves progress(amazing work by genesis). I'm bringing rock solid performance and refinement to the project, as well as server only ambiance that will make civilians part of the battlescape while running 24/7. The development path is ongoing, but the project is playable on my server. If you've never tried Dissension before you're in for a treat. Genesis laid out a great framework to build on.

Hello, In my clan we're trying to establish a dedicated server like we did in the past and it doesn't seem to work. We tried establishing the server using two different machines, several different ports, and some other settings - the system is showing that the server is running but not showing up on the multiplayer servers browser. What could be the problem?

SLS Modpack We have a brand new server currently open to the public! On a normal day we run the KPliberation mode, but we often make events for anyone to attend! These events can range from a milsim type operation to something a little more fun like a STALKER theme. (Definitely planned and in the works now by me.) If you wish to attend these events, simply join our discord server and we will soon have an event signup channel. Currently we only have Altis, but don't fret, we are working CUP maps into our rotation! This will take time and we will slowly be rolling them in one at a time as we are only two people. We use ACRE2 so please connect to our teamspeak server upon joining, the server rules are posted on the discord, so please give those a read! We don't mind if you join just to read those and leave afterwards. Teamspeak: 172.93.102.138:9002

Could someone suggest the optimal settings for the parameters in basic.cfg considering the following: 1. Our server has 2gb bandwidth up and down 2. The 64gb of RAM and the CPU is 9900k running at 5ghs across all cores.

I've had a recurring problem within Arma 3 for the past year or so and it's prevented me from really playing the game. Every time I try to join a server, it doesn't matter what server (as long as it's not an official server), it always says "Battleye Initialization Failed". Every single time for the past year or so i've been trying and without fail it never works. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, installing battleye straight from their website, moving game directory locations, i've tried it all but nothing ever seems to work. I just want to be able to play again and i've tried contacting everyone I know of but nothing i've ever tried has worked.

To whom it may concern, Recently, I was playing on Zeus. US Server #02w. That server was up for a good time and everyone was having fun. Me and another guy, as the zeus, spent 20 minutes building a good mission. The mission was cut short when a scripter was kicking people out of their helicopters and teleporting the helicopters to the ground. There was a secondary scripter who crashed my game and many others. The scripter appeared to have crashed the server completely. Now, I don't know if crashing servers damages or does anything to Bohemia, but these scripters are problems. About an hour before the scripter took down the server, there were other scripters. The scripters were not harmful, but they had cheated weapons. Weapons such as the cruise missile, hydras, and other absurd weapons. These scripters are not being stopped by BattlEye. The anti-cheat for Arma 3 servers should be updated. The amount of scripters is ruining the game and everyone's experiences. Thanks, Tardis.

Hi V.5 Altis Life - Ported to the Australia map. I have ported to the Australia map i have it running on my PC through TADST for testing. Everything runs fine. I have transfered the mission.pbo (AU_Remastered_AU.australia) and the Life_server.Pbo to the server. Added all the keys to the server key folder. Mod setup on the server as follows - @extDB3;@JSRS SOUNDMOD;@life_server;@Australia 5.0.9;@D3S Cars pack;@CUP Weapons;@CBA_A3;@ace;@CUP ACE3 Compatibility Addon - Weapons; The game loads - but it just stays on a black screen. looking at the logs it does not seem to be loading the required mods - I have added a custom difficulty (see file below) I have changed the config file to - Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hello there, i want least ping for the EU servers, i connect from Asia/India. There are no good servers here to play with all types of vehicles like in KOTH servers. I need to know what i have to do in order to get least ping for EU servers specially heavily populated ones like koth vehicles ones. Weather its hardware/software/internet, please be free to provide any kind of information. Currently i have 180-250 ping using only my 4g mobile network. Im sure opting for dedicated fiber cable broadband would help a lot but what can be the least i can get if i get the best hardware/internet available so that my investment goes worth it? Also the servers there are about 7000 kms away roughly from me. Regards

Hey everyone, so we've been playing on our Nitrado server for a while now, already with other mods like CBA and what so ever. Now we wanted to add TFR, the Server accepted the mod and the mission itself runs perfectly. The directions of the voices also work. The only problem we have, is that as soon as we join the server we get a notification right in the middle of the screen saying: "No Task Force Radio deployed on server!" The normal radios sometime disapear after picking them up and opening the radio with ctrl + p doesnt work aswell... do we need to change something in the mission.pbo file? really hard to find stuff in there. We also sometime problems with the parameters not being changeble even as an admin. Thanks for reading and helping. 🙂

Hi guys, I recently build a Vietnam warfare server which is based on the Vietnam warfare mod called: Insurgency Vietnam, created by Baton on Steamworkshop, and is base on Multiplayer CO-OP game play, if you are interest in it, please come and take a look. Server Name: Ooari Group World Vietnam Warfare | IP address: 199.60.101.242:2317 Requirements: Insurgency Vietnam mission The_Unsung_Vietnam_War_Mod

I just got the game last night, tried to play it, and literally every one of the 4 game modes say”no suitable servers found”. So I gave up for the night and decided to try again today. To no surprise, the same thing happened. I figured I could convince a few friends to try it with me since the “host server” option was my only choice. I tried it, and once again, it’s unplayable because after I set up a game, they can’t join me via search OR direct connect. Wtf?

Marceldev89s original script, from which I forked. Introduction: a3update.py is a simple, lightweight python script that handles: Updating the arma server Installing and updating mods Generating an importable preset.html ideal to accompany @Dahlgren's Arma Server Web Admin which as of yet does not provide those features. Here is an example modpack.html I setup for a friend using this script Download (Github Gist) Requirements: SteamCMD, Python3, Python3-urllib3, a Steam account with Arma 3 Installation (Ubuntu): Follow the initial server installation instructions on the BIWiki `sudo apt-get install steamcmd python3 python3-urllib3` `wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/Freddo3000/a5cd0494f649db75e43611122c9c3f15/raw/4854ac4a78c7d347ade1e9ab9fcac147d7dbe3e9/a3update.py` Edit the following settings: STEAM_CMD - Point this at your steamcmd installation, alternatively simply enter "steamcmd" STEAM_USER - Your login username STEAM_PASS - Your login password A3_SERVER_DIR - Point this at your A3 server installation directory A3_MODS_DIR - Point this to where you want your mods to be symlinked. If you are using the suggested Arma Server Web Admin, make this the same as A3_SERVER_DIR A3_KEYS_DIR - Point this at the Keys folder in your installation directory MODPACK_NAME - Change this to what the title should be for the A3 launcher imported preset MODPACK_PATH - This will be the output preset.html file. Point this to wherever you wish for it to be stored, such as /var/www/html for the Apache web server MODS - Your list of mods in the format "@mod_folder" : "https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=450814997". Avoid special and capital characters SERVER_MODS - List of server mods, only add folder names here. These also have to be present in the MODS list. Server keys will not be copied for these mods OPTIONAL_MODS - List of server mods, only add folder names here. These also have to be present in the `MODS` list. These mods will not get symlinks in your A3_MODS_DIR, but will have their server keys copied. DLC - List of CDLC in format "Name" : "https://store.steampowered.com/app/1042220/Arma_3_Creator_DLC_Global_Mobilization__Cold_War_Germany/" Optional: Install Arma Server Web Admin `chmod +x a3update.py` // Might be a good idea to limit access, as you have your password stored in plaintext Run it! `./a3update.py` Importing preset via URL: Open the A3 Launcher, go to mods, select "PRESET" at the top right and "IMPORT" Copy the link to the modpack.html (Example: https://somewebsite.com/modpack.html) Paste it into the "File name" field and press Open Notes: This has only been tested on Linux, though I wouldn't be surprised if it also works on Windows Known issues: Does currently not handle installation and updates of CDLC Doesn't work well with 2FA due to how steam stores login tokens Optional DLC is not kept when preset is imported With larger mod lists some data may fail to transfer to the launcher, therefore if you intend to keep the server public you'll want to run less than 15 mods. You can increase the amount of transferable data by shortening each mods mod.cpp file, making each mod take less space to transfer. Alternatively, you can use the ACE checkPBOs framework to make sure players are running the correct mods. License: MIT License Credits: @marceldev89 from who I forked this project

Hey all, I'm currently trying to figure out how to blacklist a specific mod from my server, as opposed to using verifysignatures or any type of whitelist. Can this be done? Thanks for any info.

The RwG Addon "Basebuilding Exile" is now available. Steam Community Link This contains new objects and structures for the Exilemod. So far only wood elements are available and their upgraded versions. These can be crafted as frames, placed as usual in Exile and can then be upgraded with the Wood Planks Upgrade Kit (needs a hammer) and with the Exile Fortification Upgrade Kit reinforced with metal. Item-List Features/Contains - A big gate for transporters. - Different door variants. - An elevator that can lift vehicles and people. - More snappoints - Compatible with Exile objects - 3 Custom/Shadow Lods, different texture resolutions, View Geometry and Phys Geometry - Items Electric Engine, Box Of Nails, Wood Planks Upgrade-Kit, Furnace Kit, Anvil Kit, Workbench Kit - and much more Exile Vanilla If you want to use the objects without frames, you don't need to change anything in the config. Use recipes which create a full wall. CustomCodes Old (Only WoodPlanks-Upgrade) New El'Rabito-WIP (WoodPlank-Upgrade + MetalGrid-Upgrade) If you want to use this variant, then use the attached recipes and customcodes. To upgrade a frame, you will need the Wood Planks Upgrade Kit and a Hammer. Update 1.01 Update 1.01a Update 1.0.2 CraftingRecipes vers.2 CfgInteractionModels WARNING This mod is still under development. There may be errors, which are not intended by the creator. Please report bugs in the Discord "Bugs" Channel If you use Enhanced Movement, write the objects of the RwG Addon in the blacklist, otherwise locked doors can be opened by everyone. The elevator does not write coordinates of players and vehicles in the database. So move/drive before log-out. This mod is an extension for the Exilemod and therefore not functional without it.

#pissedoff I don't think I need to mention how annoying it is to spend hours getting from one end of the map to the other to get all your kit just be killed by a glitchy car and have to do it all over again. I love dayz, but once things like this have happened enough you start to get fed up. Which is why I stopped playing for ages. I finally started playing again a while ago. I went all out looking high and low for the kit I wanted. Couldn't find any ARs though. NONE on ANY SERVER. just rifles and every now and then an smg. Regardless I got myself together a half decent loadout, just for an update that comes with a complete wipe to be announced. Ofcourse I stopped playing until the update was released, which I'm pretty sure was late. So I give up. However, I decided to play your pointless game again last night. Of course I spawned in with a fresh character. Spent my gaming hours last night making my way up to the middle airfield I died once, but made it with my second character. Although I had no food or water by the time I got there (remember that). I did a quick sweep of the barracks at the top then logged off for the night, ready to come back on this afternoon, do a full sweep of the base then head up to the next one. I log on today, got a 75 second spawn in timer and a message warning me that because of a server change, my position might change, which of course, it did. Spawned in a field with no food or water, no doubt miles away from the base. I found a house not to far a way with a can of peaches in it. Luckily cuz I was about to start dehydrating. Not sure if that will be enough to get me to a town or not though. So my question is should I keep playing? This switching position thing is a blessing and a curse. It fixes some of the main issues like duplicating and spawning in people's base. But when you start punishing the legitimate players, is your game even worth playing anymore? Who knows how long it'll be before you wipe the servers again, that alone makes the game pretty pointless. It's a shame cuz I like this game but I really don't know if I want to play it again. I'm sat in that house where I found the peaches, debating whether or not to log back on and continue.

Hello! Now, I am kind of new to the "running arma 3 server" scene but have ran certain servers before. The Arma 3 Life scene for awhile was stagnant and there was too much of a variety to choose from and the variety honestly had little to no development that actually improved the experience in game. I have been a member of life servers for over 4 years now, being on many different communities and experiencing a lot of good, bad, and frustrating times. This is why I am trying to bring back Arma 3 life to it's former glory, in 2019 it's hard to think of a good FREE server to play on besides Altis Life and maybe City Life. But I don't want Altis, or Lakeside as the map. I want a fresh brand new map built from the ground up. A place where people can experience for the first time and explore many different locations. I want fresh mods customized to bring the best roleplay experience to the community. Custom building, possibly, and custom scripts. Now, a few things are is that I NEED HELP. Specifically with development, scripting, and hosting the server. If anyone is willing to help me with these things please shoot me an email -- jaylenryan@icloud.com A few specific questions that I have are.... 1. What host should I use to run the server if my connection isn't the best (because college internet). 2. How do I script mods into my server, add mods, and set up TFR so we can have a better VOIP in game. 3. Website creation has never been my strong suit, so how should I go about that? 4. How do I create a custom map, from the ground up? Thank you again for taking the time to read this, and again, if you'd like to contact me either reply here or shoot me an email -- jaylenryan@icloud.com Have a great day!

Intro After using Arma for a long time and having my own dedicated server, I always found very hard to keep my mods up to date. So I used Flax's tool (FAST) to make the whole thing work but there was some issues. The software tend to be quite slow sometimes, some menus are not working completely and the command output was a bit weird. I ended up building my own version of his tool, since it is not maintained anymore, by translating the entire code into something more recent, fixed the issues I found and reworked the code behind. Download You can find the latest release below : 64 bits Version 32 bits is not supported for now. If you require a 32 bits version, contact the developer directly Extract the files somewhere on your computer and run FASTER.exe. I recommend creating a shortcut to avoid the hassle of having to find the program.

For any question, please contact me on Twitter @FoxliderAtom or on Discord. Why ? FAST was already being reworked on with FAST2 but the project stopped since January 2019. I decided to create a rework myself. There is something wrong when ... Please create a GitHub issue ! It help me keep track of what happened and when it was fixed. It might also help others who have issues as well. Can you please add ... Uh yeah, maybe ! Create an issue on GitHub and I'll see if it's possible. Feedback Please report any issue you encounter while using FASTER on the GitHub Issue Page. Screenshots Notes Thanks to Flax for creating a really awesome tool for our Arma Servers. Thanks to BI for creating that game we all spend hours on.
