It took me a while to figure this out, if there is a better way, please let me know. This method works for people who wish to delete all of the existing traders within the Exile world. I'm using Altis for my map and will use that directory. You can use this method for any map file. Also create backups of your files incase you screw up. Files you will need: -Exilemod - Copy this folder and past it inside a different folder, rename it to Exilee or whatever. As long as it's named different from the actual mod name. -M3Editor - 3DEN https://github.com/maca134/m3e_3den - Place this in your Arma 3 game directory Start up Arma 3 and add: -@ExileMod -@Exilee (the renamed Exile folder you just copied and renamed) -@m3e_3den 1. Copy your "mission.sqm" located with your map folder under"Yourserver\mpmissions\Exile.Altis" 2. Go to your profile name folder in the documents directory, open the mpmissions folder (create it if you do not have that folder). Then create a folder and name it whatever you'd like. In my case I named it as "myserver". Open up the created folder and paste the missions.sqm into the folder. 3. Start Arma 3 with the above mods enabled, open the editor for your map. To place traders, you must only use the existing Exile units in the Independent faction under the assets tab. You may also place objects around the map, just make sure they are not interactable items (weapons, vehicles, etc.). You will need to save the objects within the "missions.sqm" file (Make sure to save scenario without npc's!). You can also copy and move existing map markers in the map window. For animations you can find them with a quick Google search (Example: Exile trader animations). 4. Once you are satisfied with the placement of your traders, select the "Exile" tab at the top of the editor. Select "Save initServer.sqf" and copy this text to a seperate text document. Do the same for the option "Save initPlayerLocal.sqf". 5. Open up the file "initPlayerLocal.sqf" that is within your server under "Yourserver\mpmissions\Exile.Altis" Delete all the lines after: if (!hasInterface || isServer) exitWith {}; Then open up the saved text file you created, copy and paste everything after the above line. It should look similar to this: /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Static Objects /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Taken away for now //#include "initServer.sqf" if (!hasInterface || isServer) exitWith {}; // 4 NPCs private _npcs = [ ["Exile_Trader_SpecialOperations", ["AmovPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_Ease"], "Exile_Trader_SpecialOperations", (I did not paste the entirety of it because it would take up this entire page) 6. Now open up the file "initServer.sqf" within your server. Delete All lines before the slashes for the Russian Roulette. Then open up the saved text file you created, copy and paste everything before the slashes. It should look similar to this at the end: } forEach _objects; /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Russian Roulette /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 7. The final step is to copy and paste your "missions.sqm" file to your server, and overwrite. Edit: Make sure you delete all the objects you used for the trader areas, otherwise you will end up with duplicate objects clipping. Repack your PBO and enjoy.

Hi there. I go to my question straight away. Is there a way or a script to tell AI they can walk freely inside a certain area. Like making an area on a city and then they walk around randomly inside this city until something happens. I'm pretty new to builiding missions and any help on this would be useful., Thanks.

Screenshots of what is happening: https://imgur.com/gallery/Cu1YUHX I cannot figure out how to get regular units to appear in the Respawn > Loadouts tab of the Zeus menu, on community maps. They appear just fine on Bohemia's default Zeus missions, but on any Zeus mission made by myself or the community the loadout screen stays blank. This is very annoying when wanting to play scenarios in Total Conversion mods, where I'd like my players to be able to respawn as various units from the mod's available roster. (Space Marines in There Is Only War, Stormtroopers in SW: Opposition, etc). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone, I managed to build my own 1v1 map with some additional handy scripts. Now I want to add something else but I didn't manage to find anything on the internet to start with. We realized while playing the game that it would be useful if the enemy player would get pinged on his current location. So my question is if someone has an idea. Quick description: Every minute a position marker (like the tacitcal ping (strg+t)) appears ingame on the position of the enemy player and remains there for 5 seconds. Addition: It would be the best if you could turn this option for the position marker on and off. I would appreciate it if someone can help me.

Very new to the editor here; I am trying to make a simple firefight but I am having trouble getting the enemy behavior correct. I have a small OPFOR patrol walking in a circle around a very small village with waypoints. The waypoints are set to SAFE mode, not careless. There are four enemy characters per group and two groups total. The problem is, when I attack them as a BLUFOR, I can shoot anyone in the group from a distance, lets say as close as 60 meters away and no one else in the group cares that their friends have been shot. And if I run up on the enemy group, they might get a little figgity and shoot a few rounds off at me, but it seems like nobody will refuse to abandon their waypoints I set for them and continue on their way despite me being there. In the base game, it seems like once they know you are there, they stop everything they are doing and try to find you as hard as they can. What am I doing wrong that I cant replicate this? I havent found any good tutorials on youtube because this is probably a very basic thing Im struggling with. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi, basically the question is in the title. How can i group multiple Artilliry units so they fire all at once, once i called Fire Support? (my config so far: Player <-> Artilliry Request node <-> Artilliry node <-> M4 Scorcher in group with three other Artilliry units - in this constellation, unfortunately, they all fire individually one after the other ) thanks in advance!

Hello people, I'm new to the forum and Arma 3, I've never worked with scripts or codes and I really appreciate it if you can help me. I'm having fun with the game editor doing cinematics and I wonder if it would be too complicated a script for the following situation; Imagine an AH-64 or AH-1Z and 3 targets (t1 to t3), a delay of 10 seconds (to open and set GCam) then the helicopter shoots at t1 with machine gun, t2 with hellfires and t3 with rockets. Would it be possible? Thanks for the help.

Markers seen in these images are just a small sample of what is included, NOT the entire content! Details: USP Flags - 212 World Flags USP Markers - 212 World Markers USP Markers Extra - 254 Additional World Markers USP Markers Factions - 195 Faction Markers USP Markers Fictional - 26 Fictional Markers Each addon is standalone, and only requires USP_Markers_Core (Included) to function. Required Addons: None Signed: Yes, Server Key included Summary: This long overdue update includes a few new markers as well as an overhauled file structure. Server key and signatures have been fixed and 2 new pbo's have been added (Details further ahead). Classnames have been updated accordingly, as well as a classlist provided, and compatible with the 3D Editor. Overall, just looking to bring this addon back up to speed. USP_Markers_Core.pbo is now required by all other addons in order to function properly. Each addon is standalone and only requires the Markers Core. USP_Flags.pbo is a new inclusion for this update, adding placeable flagpoles in the editor. Currently, it includes all of the world flags that are present in the USP_Markers addon (All countries of the world). Future updates may feature flags from some of the other Marker addons as well, such as factions and pmc groups. This addon is very low priority for me, as can be seen with how long it's been since the last update, but I do try to keep anything I've released operating for the long-run. So, on that note, don't expect to see anymore updates from this for awhile, aside from the occasional hotfix. Hope you all enjoy the addon and always feel free to post comments or requests on the forums. Included: usp_flags.pbo usp_markers.pbo usp_markers_core.pbo usp_markers_extra.pbo usp_markers_factions.pbo usp_markers_fictional.pbo Changelog: v1.2 ADDED: USP_Markers_Core.pbo ADDED: USP_Flags.pbo FIXED: Server Key and Signatures CHANGED: File Structure and Classnames v1.1 UPDATED: World Markers Icon ADDED: Flag (Arabic Union) v1.0 Initial Release Issues: Not tested in Multiplayer Credits and Thanks: Author: Siege-A Developer: UnderSiege Productionz Vking (help with the marker sizes.)

Hi, I'm relatively new to mapmaking and have been so far learning through trial and error (mostly error), but am currently rather stumped with a problem vastly outside my base of experience. I am trying to set a trigger to activate when players collect any 3 pieces of intel (of 6 available), regardless of the combination of intel collected. Only 3 pieces need to be found, and currently I am referencing their collection via a seperate trigger with 'thisNull objectName', as the intel is deleted on pickup, and then trying to get another trigger to check 'triggerActivated triggerName' (horribly inefficient, I know). Apologies if this doesn't make much sense, its 3am and mission making has fried my brain. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Eden 2.0 Introduction Eden just got upgraded. Now with inspector view, easier access to tools. With this flowgraphs are introduced. Visual scripting that you can use to create advanced missions/systems. This project goal is to update eden to become a better editor. More things will be added on request of the community. What is flowgraphs? Flow Graphs, in which you connect individual actions and values in a specific order. That order of execution is what we call the flow. If you have used Unreal Engine before, you might find they are similar to the Blueprints visual scripting language. Download Steam Workshop Dependencies/Client/Server If you want to use flowgraphs, eden 2.0 need to run on both client and server. All tools leave no dependencies and all changes you make is saved to the mission file. Tutorials Flowgraph Tutorial Add a tool to the menu Features FlowGraph system. Inspector view. Tools. Ingame debug console. Alot of functions that i created during my years with arma. CfgFunctions_Extended(Experimental) I have ideas/found a bug/want to contribute Visit the Discord. You are all welcome. More stuff will be added but i have released it early so you can help with testing.

arkadaşlar, edenle öğretimle bir animasyonu nasıl modele sokabilirim pls da bir şey sadece eden merhaba ya da kapsamlı var. Hi guys how can ı loop an animation with eden editor ı cant using sqf.Thanks for your help

The idea of the mission i'm editing is that the players need to aid civilians, and bandaging all of them triggers an enemy attack. Involving the ace medical system troubles this, because civilians heal themselves even without medical equipment. disabling simlation would block any input, so what I thought I should do is to disable the AI medical system in the needed units. I can easily disable the global AI medical system through addon options, but I don't know the script needed for this to apply in only one unit

Hi, Yesterday I tried to publish my mission to workshop but I couldn't do that because my space "bar" was red. It says that I need more space, but even if I delete 10 old missions and gain more MB free, space requirement gets higher so bar is still red.. I'm playing arma for a while now (1500 hours +) and I never saw anything like that anywhere.. if you know solution, please help me

Is there any no damage script (like allowDamage false but when something near explode i will survive)? Because I want to test my mission in editor.

Hey guys im working on a mission. I uploaded it to the workshop some time ago an I keep updating it but last time I made some changes and couldn't get it to upload. I'm only getting an error message: I my Steam cloud is enabled and I cant find any other settings that could mess with the upload. If anybody has an idea how to fix my problem I would be happy to hear it.

Hey guys! I’m trying to create a WWII POW Escape mission that features AI guards and some AI prisoners to make the prison lively. Basically I want the camp AI prisoners to walk around the camp in the daytime but go into their huts and stay there at nighttime before then coming back out again in the morning and doing that whole day/night cycle over again indefinitely - is it possible do this? I can only seem to make them cycle in the yard indefinitely regardless of the time of day, but if they’re out at night (when they shouldn’t be) then the searchlights go mad and it kills the immersion. Any help appreciated!

I'm having trouble with my mission, I've been trying to activate a trigger only after 3 tasks are finished, I am currently using this ( this && ["AA"] call BIS_fnc_taskState == "SUCCEEDED" ) But I can't figure out how to add more tasks to it. I am also trying to make a task show up after all 3 objectives are finished. Hope I can get some help on this 👍

Hello everyone. I could use some help because I really don't know what might be the problem. I'm editing a MP-Mission with a respawn-module for Blufor and one for Opfor (Settings - Typ: Infantry, Side: Opfor/Blufor, Show to: Only the side). I've also placed a respawn-ticket-module set to five for Blufor and Opfor. At least I connected both respawn-modules with the ticket-module. So. What works fine is the ticket system. After more than five deaths the mission ends. But that's not the problem. In the multiplayer settings I set "Respawn on Custom Position" with the settings 'show respawn counter' and 'subtract tickets upon death'. I also activated the scoreboard, the manual respawn and a respawn delay of 10 seconds. So actually I expect the following to happen: After you get killed you see the scoreboard for ten seconds. After this countdown you will automatically spawn at your (Blufor or Opfor) respawn. What really happens: Opfor is spawning at his point of death while Bluefor is mostly spawning at the respawn point but not always. I was testing this with an Opfor and an Blufor Assault Rifleman playing on both sides but also with a friend who was playing the other side. What do I fail to see? I would really appreciate if someone could help you. Thank you!

TypeSqf Editor 1.08 by Engima Overview The TypeSqf Editor is a script editor for Arma 3. The most important features are: Syntax Highlighting Syntax Checking Auto Completion Folding Object Oriented Scripting (SQX Syntax) CPack Service (like nuGets in Visual Studio) Description The TypeSqf editor is a developer's tool for scripting in Arma 3. Besides using it to write SQF code with syntax highlighting and auto completion, it analyzes your syntax in real time, alerting you if something is erroneous or suspicious. Object Oriented Scripting The editor comes with an optional extended functionality for SQF syntax, called SQX. In a convenient way, and with as many similarities to SQF as possible, SQX enables object oriented scripting (classes) and adds type handling. Classes may contain a constructor, fields, properties and methods. It works because the .sqx files are compiled into corresponding .sqf files before executed by Arma 3. The CPack Service The CPack Service is a service for sharing content with other script editors as well as to organize your own code. In short a CPack is a content bundle (a .zip file) that you upload and label with a name and a version number. Then they are very easy for anyone to download and include in any mission. Download Download at Official TypeSqf Site. Installation / Usage 1. Open the zip file and run the installer. 2. Run TypeSqf from the start menu. (See the video "Getting started with the TypeSqf editor" below.) Code Code is shared at Github: https://github.com/XEngima/Apps-TypeSqfEdit Media: Getting started with the TypeSqf editor. Creating and using an SQX Crowd class in Arma 3 using the TypeSqf Editor.

Hi! I want to make a Artwork but i dont know how i can make tracers. Can someone help me 🙂

Nvm

Hey, sorry, I'm pretty new to designing missions, so I'm not great at scripting. I'd like to make it so that, on a multiplayer server, with 5-20 players, it randomly picks one or two. The idea would be that it would flash a message on their screen, and theirs only, so that no one who is NOT picked would know about it. Does anyone know what code I should fuck with to do this? I already know how to make it output messages via Hints, I just need to know how to make it randomly pick that one or two players to do it to, without anyone else (including the host, if possible) knowing who was picked.

Hi, I'm trying to find way how to assign teams/colors for squad in editor. I only found - [this assignTeam "COLOR"] ,but it doesn't work for multiplayer. Anyone knows some command?

Place dogs, goats, hens and sheep anywhere in Eden. Rooftops, camps, compounds, outposts. etc. Although listed under Props, these are actually fully animated and follow their own behaviours. Find them under Props>Animals>Terrestrial. Server Key included. Steam Workshop. 🐕🐐🐑🐓

I came across this post recently and while it has solved most of the visual issues I have with Sector control, I still have no idea how to change the last grey ellipse shapes to something else. I wanted to use flags for both the neutral and captured state. Earlier post:
