Hello, I've been thinking about a possible MOD for Arma 3 that could really produce some butt-clenching, heart pounding, gameplay moments. It's heavily inspired on the Battle Royale mod which is dying out sadly, and there's some MMO elements in them too. Anyways, I've made a small presentation that explains the idea better: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1LYfntb3MyRWQUp3Eyju9cyEopTPzSF_dRzpS99TxcvE/edit?usp=sharing I'm no developer, my goal with this post is to just 'test the water' and see if there is some interest in a game mod like this. Secondly if someone can enlighten me on how much work creating a minimal viable prototype of this MOD would take, or point me in the general direction of someone that can help me get this going, that would also be greatly appreciated. Thank you! best regards

Anyone looking for a potential fix, simply remove the MCC mod (if you're running it). This removes the following 2 errors: [BIS_fnc_activateAddons] The function can be activated only through the mission init [BIS_fnc_moduleCurator] Curator owner not defined, player used instead in single player See below for further details: https://github.com/shaygman/MCC_sandbox_modDev/issues/60 -
BUG - Set Costs - Modules. Misc controls all module costs
TheWoWNerd posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ZEUS
Hello, just reporting on a bug I have been encountering recently that I have finally found the root cause of. When setting up a Zeus v Zeus mission I wanted to have a limit and natural regeneration of either Zeus' resources. (So they couldn't just spam a bunch of units and overwhelm the server.) All of the modules to set costs such as Side, Object, and Soldiers and Vehicles work perfectly as intended. (Each cost set is used for the synced curator.) However, the module controlling the costs of Zeus modules, Ie: Audio, Effects, Animals, Objectives, etc... does not function properly. I didn't want the Zeus' just resorting to using the Fire Support Module to win fights so I set this Module using the editor Set Costs - Modules to a number greater than 1, so it could not be used. But, there was an issue, after setting the cost of this Module, Fire Support was still available and at the same resource cost as any of the other Modules I did allow the Zeus' to use... It wasn't till today, when I decided I wanted this exploit patched that I uncovered what was causing the issue. When setting the costs of Modules one of the categories is "Misc" and this is what is creating the issue, no matter what value you set any of the other Module costs too, they all follow the cost of Misc... meaning that all Modules are forced to either all be the same cost as the Misc value or to have them all disabled, by having the value set to an unattainable cost. (1<_) I will provide screenshots demonstrating this issue, I hope it can be resolved in the near future. Thank you. Screenshots: Misc at 0.02 (2%): Misc at 0.9 (90%): -
Need help with Cold War Assault mission editing! (triggers)
Sulon480 posted a topic in USER MISSIONS
Hello everyone, im new on this website! I need help on a problem, that I spent hours trying to fix it, but still no idea... So I'm making a stealth-kinda mission, with guards, alarms and stuff. I already made a Sentry to move into a house, and activate an alarm, when activated, making the nearby guards search for an intruder. I kinda got used to using triggers, but there is something I can't figure. It's the following; So in the base, I want a vehicle crew just chilling with a Sentry waypoint, and a Get In waypoint, so when they see an intruder, they'll use the nearby BMP. So it works well, but i want them to get in the BMP when they see enemy OR when the alarm is triggered. So I can only make them get in the BMP ONLY when the alarm is on, or ONLY when they see enemy... How can a make it both? I dunno if there is still people playing with this game, but I hope someone will find this thread. :) (I'm not from an English speaking country, I hope I was understandable :) ) -

keyframe animation Can't see red paths between keyframes
Bartez95 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - EDEN EDITOR
Hello, i'm trying to do some stuff in Eden Editor. So lately i found this tutorial about keyframe animations and start trying. For the first try everything works great, but in some time red lines (paths) between keyframes just dissapear. So doing animation without seeing paths is imposible. Is there way to show red lines again or it some sort of bug? -
I love creating pictures in Arma. But i have all the static animation packs. But I feel there needs to be more for the modern day mods and more variety. I've found a couple of video tutorials. But they were unclear, and there wasn't any audio to it. It was also for animations(loading) not a static animation. Can anyone point me in the appropriate direction to find the correct information I'll need to contribute to the community. Thanks in advance. PS. No I didn't search the thread.

A way for a script to pull all units name on a given side including mods
Joedapro posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
I need a easier way to spawn random units instead of individually pulling all classes from the in game editor and pasting it while adding quotations and commas like this: ["B_mas_med_Army_ENG_F", "B_mas_med_Army_EXP_F", "B_mas_med_Army_GL_F",]. I want to use a script that when called it will pull a random unit from a given side of a given type (infantry, land, air) and spawn them in a group. The group will be filled with random units. I also want it to pull units from mods that I download. I dont want to have to keep updating the script every time I download another unit mod. The mod MMC sandbox has no problem in doing this but I dont know how they did it. -
Kill/Destroy AI units that leave the area/Trigger Zone
Joedapro posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
I need either a script or in trigger action that will kill AI units that leave the area. I want to also separate the types, example: I have an inner radius lets say 250 by 250 that AI infantry units must stay in. If they leave this area then they will die. Then I have an outer radius, 500 by 500, that allows AI Land vehicles to operate through, they are also allowed in the inner radius but if they leave the outer radius then they will be destroyed. The land vehicles include all land vehicles, not just tracked and tanks. I have thought of using multiple triggers to compare what is in the larger circle which is not in the smaller circle at which the trigger will kill the AI that is not within both triggers but I am not sure how to do that or if there is an easier way. -
Sloppy faction mods, faction category inheritance, and Achilles Reinforcements Module
Donny Quixotic posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS - CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
In short, I made a faction mod by using Drongo's Config Generator to create new units based on units from other mods and official platform updates. I took the faction mod config file into Notepad++ and edited it to add editor subcategories for my units to help improve organization and scenario compatibility. One problem remained: many of my units did not appear under the category of my faction in 3DEN or Zeus (though some arbitrarily did). Instead, they appear under the subcategory I assigned them, but under the faction category that the unit I had built them upon belonged to. This includes infantry, vehicles, turrets, and other such hardware. Squads and groups appear to function fine. In order to solve this, we went into the configs and added a class editorCategory under the same display name as the faction, then assigned this category to all the units in cfgVehicles. they all appeared, neat and organized, as desired. This for some reason broke compatibility with the Reinforcements Module of Achilles, and now my faction no longer appears under the Vehicle Faction selection dialogue, although it still appears under the squad selection dialogue for the same module. Since Achilles reinforcements only handles infantry in the form of groups, I think the issue at hand is not limited to only vehicles, but all units under cfgVehicles including infantry and others. Just as well, in cfgVehicles, all the units are assigned to my faction, and should be appearing under the appropriate category, but don't. There is no issue with selecting the faction as a playable faction in scenarios like Dynamic Recon Ops, and if the classname for the faction were somehow wrong in the config files, I would be getting all kinds of errors. This leads me to believe that, somehow, there is an issue with my units inheriting the faction editor categories of the factions their base units originated from. This is strange, because unless a unit can somehow belong to more than one faction simultaneously, they should not be inheriting these classes and the original faction category should be completely overriden by the new one. I am ready to provide photographic examples as necessary for clarification, and my config as well. -
Very basic editing question about generic voice chat
leot85 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hi guys, iv just started playing with the mission editor, and i am noticing that say if i am the leader of a squad and i issue a basic command to the squad to just move west 100 meters, there wont be the generic "all move west 100 meters" voice and radio command followed by the "copy" back from the squad. Or say we are a tank crew and i issue a command to disembark, there wont be the generic "all disembark" voice and radio chat. Am i missing something here i never remember having to set anything up for simple things like this? i know its going to be something stupid simple but i cant find any solutions so far. -
Ladys and Gentleman, Maybe i oversaw the Question or this is something nobody asked yet. My Question is Simple: Is there a Way to work together in the Eden Editor at the same time or will a Multiplayer version of the Eden Editor released some day? With best regards Leerian Dark

Switch players side from a trigger
Mattmad1234 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hi all! I am working on a small missions for some friends and I would like to setup a trigger system. Basically when a player enters a specific trigger on the map, their side changes from CIV, to either OPFOR or BLUFOR, depending on which trigger they enter. Then when the trigger deactivates they are set back to CIV. Is something like this possible?? If so I would appreciate any help I could get!! Thanks! -
I am quite new to modding arma, and modding for arma as well. That said, forgive me if I am being dumb or forgot to look for something. I seem to be at a problem. I worked on making a realistic terrain for around 3 days. Then, i booted up Terrain Processor and realized that there was no "import .raw" or "import .png". The only file extension I found was .dem. I am not trying to use terrain data from the earth. I would like to find a way to either convert a .png or .raw to a .dem, or figure out how to import a .raw or .png to the terrain processor Thank you for your time

Backpacks placed in EdenEditor fly all over the place
Glow posted a topic in ARMA 3 - TROUBLESHOOTING
Backpacks placed in EdenEditor, if are to close each other, just fly all over the place. Even when I mark no simulation, etc. No way to keep all in one place. Is there any solution for that? Is there some code I could drop to init box to keep backpacks as simple objects or freeze in one place? I need to have those backpacks in one stack as decoration. -

Hello there! I'm working on a remake of the "East Wind" campaign where I replace every NATO unit with a Bundeswehr unit (BWMod). I'm currently working on the first mission of the campaign, now here's my problem: There's a game logic entity where MacKinnon's vehicle is supposed to lie on the side. I replaced the Hunter with an Eagle. Now when I'm starting the mission, the Eagle is stuck in the ground. Mods: BWMod Bundeswehr ReTex Pack CBA_A3 I'm not a programming god and I have no idea how to fix this issue! Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Hello! I run a WWII Milsim unit and need to make an op for this Saturday. I want to have a spawn where my guys can load in, and kit up with BI Virtual Arsenal, and then I want to have a spawn point on a moving, AI controlled plane ( C -47 ) that all of my guys can spawn into, it puts them in a seat, and we can then jump out accordingly. Is this possible?

cba Create custom EdenEditor Modules vs. CBA Settings for Addon
Vandeanson posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Gentlemen, I finally got around to turn a script collection into a addon, ready to be uploaded to steam. I however need to provide the user with a ingame/eden editor module interface so the user can adjust the settings of the script/addon before i can release the addon in order to make it customizable. E.g. disable feature 1 from spawning, increasing the amount of times feature 2 spawns, define classnames for an array and so on. I have unsuccessfully tried to wrap my head around this wiki: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Modules I get the example from the wiki above to work in Eden Editor, however, I get quite lost when trying to adapt this example or create a new module from scratch for my addon. What do I want to do: Let the addon user define variables in Eden Editor that will then be executed accordingly in the features of my addon according to these settings. I want to have a "module - mask" per feature that lets the user change or set variables that have so far been defined and altered in a settings.sqf. (see below spoiler) As an example for the feature that spawns Banditcamps: the below variables need to pass on as true, false or representing a number, so once a feature is executed, it can access these variables with the desired values. Ideally i am looking for a template with a few options to enter a number, and a few options for true/false and one or two to enter a string (classnames, or marker names for arrays). Any help, insights or link to alternative guides is greatly appreciated!=) cheers Vd -
Is there some sort of guide online to adding custom dialogue into missions? I've looked around with no success. I have all the sound files I need, I just don't know how to add them in.

Hello everyone, and thank you for taking the time. I have been doing missions in Arma 3 for quite some time now and after much troubleshooting and learning through places like these forums, I have learned a whole lot. There is one issue I have recently that I have not managed to work out, despite making search and research on it the google results and threads are different and unrelated ACE issues from mine; I have an ACE issue not with installation, or server, but only with a specific Liberation mission that I am trying to make work. My question is that I have not managed to figure out which might be the cause, specifically and I will admit that I am not really good at understanding RPT logs sometimes. I have included the latest RPT log in this post as well. No matter what kind of tests I have ran, the ACE interaction menu (Ctrl+Win/Win) does not work. Been at this for two days now. Some notes: - The issue only persist in that one mission, I create a blank new mission and ACE works. - ACE is fully loaded, as all content including items and addon options are there. - Only ACE Interaction menu is not working it seems. I have been doing a lot of troubleshooting on my own, this is one of the only times when I have not been able to figure out an issue on my own yet. Anyone who have an idea or input it is greatly appreciated. EDIT: Split up the RPT Log through pastebin. RPT Log 1: https://pastebin.com/ky6UUfD1 RPT Log 2: https://pastebin.com/PEGYXHX0 RPT Log 3: https://pastebin.com/H9Acsm5Z
