I have got the "Heroes Survive" scripts to semi work on my template scenario, but when you start "freezing" no damage is shown, and you basically drop dead when your body temperature hits 89F. No warning, just dropping dead. I am no coder, so someone may find the issue right away lol. Thanks for the help!

Description: Hello Folks, this is my first release so be kind to me if u find bugs or such stuff. I made this with the help of George Floros, so thnx a lot to him! "Ravage Ruha - Deathmatch Survival" is a simple Deathmatch mode with survival elements for up to 12 Players on the little and very beautiful Map Ruha. The goal is to survive against roaming Renegades and Zombies (and also Players, if u want to play in Multiplayer) in an endless Survival Deathmatch mode. The map is spiced up by some random events to get some more action and looting options for the players. It contains Airdrops and Crashsites which are marked on the map for every player, so some nice shootouts should be on the agenda! I made this for fun, to share and also just for me to relax while i kill some bandits after a hard day at work :) Scripts i´ve used so far: GF_Cargo_Airdrops, Crashsites_GF, Earthquakes_GF, Ravage_Status_Bar_GF, Killfeed_GF They are all slightly changed a bit by me with the help of George. Known Problems: Sometimes Markers for Airdrops dont show of correct Features: - Play in Single or Multiplayer mode - Survival Elements - Hunt Renegades, Zombies or Players (the area is high populated by infected Renegades!) - Loot Airdrops and Crashsites for better gear(marked on the map) - Random Player Spawns - Survive the harsh environment Installation:Place the mission file in the MPmissions folder inside your Arma 3 installation. Your ArmA3 installation should be in yoursteamfolder/steamapps/common Mods you need: - Ravage - CBA_A3 - CUP Weapons - Cup Units - Cup Terrains - Core - Cup Vehicles - and for sure Ruha Other recommended Mods: - JSRS Soundmod - Dawn of the Dead: Infected Skins Addon You can download it here: (Just right Click, and download it) https://www.dropbox.com/s/707vrcyxfscd1t7/RavageDeathmatchSurvival.ruha.pbo?dl=0 and also at the Steam workshop https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1376397783 If u want to play Singleplayer just host it on LAN Feel free to tell me if you find any other Problems/Bugs in the Mission, i will try to fix it! Here are some Screenshots: I hope you will enjoy it! Thnx to all CptStampede

Mission link : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1324803700 Its a PvP gamemode for 15 ppl : Team blue : Survivor team, they start in a cave and can get basic equipement (old rifle...), they must survive and destroy the infected respawn zone (totem), most of this totem are hide in church or graveyard. They can find few crate for build a safe base for stock their loot. A survivor can become a bad guy, kill the other blue survivor for their loot but they will be hostile to all blufor AI (trader...). Team green : They are the infected the main task its to protect their respawn and kill the other survivor. When a survivor approach an infected respawn you will receive a hint for exemple : "survivor near Nest 8" all you need to do its respawn, choose the Nest 8, respawn and hunt the survivor... simple. When a infected kill a survivor (player or AI) the victim will stand up as zombies, so more survivor dead = more infected. Note : If the resurected infected are deleted after stand up its cause there is no blufor survivor in the area. There is different anomalies on the map, every player or AI will be affected by this anomalies. There is big reward zone, that place are hide and guarded by zombies horde or demons (ryan Z) so if a survivor meet one of this horde (they got different behavior) or demons its because you are near this big reward, and its not all, after that, 2 switch one chance, wrong switch you die, good switch enjoy your reward. Mission for dedicated server, For save the progression logged admin must write "#gradpersistenceSave" in chat box. Special thanks to Haleks (Ravage mod) and Aliascartoon for the anomalies script.

Hello ARMA community, today I release my third RAVAGE mission. Have fun! Short overview: Title: RAVAGE CASTAWAY TANOA Version: 1.3 Author: tourist Type: SP/COOP 1-10 Roleplaying Game Respawn: Base/Markers Game Version: created and playtested in SP and MP on 1.78 Stable Language: English Sceenshots: YouTube Channel featuring clips and Episodes of this mission and my other RAVAGE missions: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsOXKlspvVe5HGSNlSbveFg Features: Survival Roleplaying Mission featuring the awesome RAVAGE Mod in an "Escape the Island" Scenario inspired by cosmic's mission Play in the beautiful Tanoa Archipelago. Once a tourist paradise, but now a very dangerous place to be! Further enhanced by usage of Bad Benson's immersive script suite tailored for RAVAGE: Temperature system makes campfires an absolute necessity – so getting wet from a little moonshine swimmig tonite is not a good idea if you can't warm up afterwards! Random Helicopter/airplane crashsites, vehicle spawns and airdrops make every playthrough different even in SP Random start and respawn locations in MP for all players – go find yourself a crew, Captain! And if your online friends let you down because of this lame excuse called „RL“, you can recruit any blufor AI with the RAVAGE recruiting system... AIS/A3Wounding System for the Revive – this is the HOT stuff cuz it works in SP also! See ingame Briefing hints for instructions on using that awesome piece of code and for the settings active in this mission! If you have any AI subordinates or play SP, your teammates will all be able to heal each other and you. In „mixed MP“ with some humans and some AI, the AI will also help the humans, even if those AI buddies are NOT the „Combat Medic“ class. Play as a small group through an adventure challenging you to show if you're ready to stand by your friend's side or rather choose to abandon one or even all of them in the face of mortal danger... Different win endings depending on your success and playstyle as a loner or as a team I'm happy to announce that my new "Tanoa Castaway" mission offers a persistent task with several sub-tasks. I achieved this by utilizing the convenient fact that ALiVE saves a vehicles position, health, ammo AND fuel state if any player has accessed the vehicle just once before the ALiVE savegame is made. Subtasks are to find three radio relays, then refuel their generators (depicted by a generator trailer and a truck with empty fuel tank) to finally power them up and send out a long range SOS. NOTE: Once a truck is refuelled, a player has to hop in&out once and then the session can be saved. After loading the ALiVE savegame, the trigger for checking the generator trucks which is set to repeatable on purpose will fire again due to ALiVE object persistency having saved the fuel level of the trucks. And once the "refuel" tasks are complete, the preliminary "finding" tasks also complete once again Did I mention this mission features a "digital sailing course"? You have to move from island to island either by paddling a PBX boat or motorboat with empty fuel tank (max speed 9 km/h) OR by sailing a yacht with up to 20km/h IF you sail it well and according to the "ropes" you get tought by a Field Manual entry and by an in-game GUI! Mission designed to make use of the improvements that came with RAVAGE 1.4.7, namely loot and equipment module variety: now props will spawn and lootable trash piles and furniture are there for you to scavenge. But beware: all loot types are only available in logical locations – so you won't find sniper rifles in a banana plantation's outhouse anymore! Phronk's „Addon Free Melee Script“ used to give all players a wrench as melee weapon at game start. Since the script is meant to work on items hand-placed in Editor, I didn't litter the whole map with axes, knives and whatnot. I simply give you a showcase of this cool script and the offer to try a unique playstyle fitting IMHO very well into an A3 RAVAGE mission. This script allows me to actually let you play through the grim experience of coming to a shootout wielding not even a knife, but just a wrench! Now go and create some vids of your flip-flopped game characters charging towards a bandit armed with a gun and beat him to death! Please do so with whatever battle cry your nation habitually yells out! Added ALiVE saving (local save, NO WarRoom Account necessary!) and player modules to the mission – this means you can use BIS save or ALiVE save in SP and only ALiVE save in MP. I have chosen to do so because the ALiVE save gives full object and inventory persistence for any and all boxes or vehicles or even loot objects left on the ground which players access during a SP or MP session. The usage in this mission is just for the persistence; so you don't need a Master Degree in ALiVE Gameplay. In fact, you won't even need a B.A. In SP, just press the ESC button and then you can choose between the usual „Save&Exit“ button or the „ALiVE SP Save“ button. Loading happens automatically when you start the mission. Even if you don't see the usual „continue“ button in A3 Scenario list, don't worry. ALiVE essentially emulates it's MP save resuming system when you use it in SP. So once you are ingame again, it will load the previous session's state automatically. You can also use ALiVE for managing your survivor team or for some debug/cheat options. If you want this, just press the „application“ button or whatever you have chosen to associate with ALiVE Menu. If you die in SP while using ALiVE save, you won't get a „reload“ button. Instead, quit to main menu and „restart“ the mission. You will load your last manual ALiVE Menu „Player Save“ or your last „ALiVE SP Save“ made on exiting the mission last time. In MP, you should try to get access to the GUI that lets you make an individual player save with ALiVE. You'll need that save if you want to leave the server before the other players or before the player who is Admin shuts it down. Speaking of which: easy as well! As Admin, press ESC, then choose „Server Save & Exit“. That's it! Once you do that, you save any players still on the server. Also in MP, the resuming of the mission is automatically. Oh, and you can move stuff around in the gameworld if it's not too heavy to lift. Crates, barbed wire, dropped weapons... Also you can load boxes (and their inventory) into your vehicles and later unload these again with mousewheel actions if the boxes are in a distance of 2 meters or less from the vehicles. NOTE: it's not recommended to mix between BIS SP savegames and ALIVE saving in the same playthrough, but if you decide to risk it and for this or for some other reason want to delete the ALiVE savegame, just execute this code in the debug console as sugested in the ALiVE WIKI: Manually clear data from the ProfileNameSpace when running Local persistence using the following commands. Be sure to use Server Exec if running on a dedicated server. call ALiVE_fnc_ProfileNameSpaceClear //removes current mission data only call ALiVE_fnc_ProfileNameSpaceWipe //removes all mission data completely CREDITS: First I'll credit the creators of the used tutorials and templates because without their work I couldn't even have started A3 mission making, modded game or vanilla, and of course special thanks goes to all RAVAGE specific tutorials! Haleks for his kind help in the RAVAGE release thread and the MP testing PM thread cosmic10R for his RAVAGE templates MacScottie/Jester814 for providing his very motivating and beginner friendly YouTube Tutorials Psychobastard for his PDF A3 Editing Guide in German and for his AWESOME Revive Script AIS/A3 Wounding System rsoftokz for his ROADS mission sproyd for his A3 Editing Guide in English Next to be credited are the friendly forum members or YouTubers (listed alphabetical, not by amount of help) that helped me either with code, with direct communication to solve various specific problems during the creation of this mission or by testing the mission together with me bad benson for his script suite, for his general tips on mission balance and our broad exchange on the different approaches to achieve a high realism level in the ARMAVERSE and of course for playtesting my older missions cosmic10R for his RAVAGE templates, for his great Escape! Mission that inspired me to try my own approach to this kind of RAVAGE mission, for the great exchange of mission ideas and for playtesting in general Evil Organ for lots of mission ideas we exchanged during RAVAGE testing Haleks for creating his awesome RAVAGE Mod and for letting me take part in the MP testing, also of course special thanks for all his coding tips phronk for his Addon Free Melee Script rpgteamx for his YouTube tutorial on markers and how to change their appearance with triggers Sgt Justin [GCF] for his Simple Vehicle Locking System Here comes the required addon list: CBA A3: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=18767 CUP Terrains Complete: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=30045 CUP Vehicles: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29716 RAVAGE: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29638&highlight=RAVAGE ALiVE: http://alivemod.com/#Download HAFM NAVY: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=32207&highlight=HAFM Sailing Mod: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=32570&highlight=SAILING Little Yacht: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=32131 Paddle Mod: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=26055 MrSanchez Headlamp: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=32777&highlight=HEADLAMP Optional Addons: ASR AI: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=24080&highlight=ASR OR VCOMAI: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=25381&highlight=VCOM Why ASR AI or VCOM AI? These two (use only one of them at a time ofc!) are my personal preference and IMHO the best plug-and-play solutions for SP and MP alike! They make bandits real crappy shooters and trained Army soldiers dangerously effective! ENHANCED MOVEMENT: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=27224&highlight=ENHANCED%2BMOVEMENT Get! That! Mod! Now! You WILL find it incredibly immersive and helpful to survive being hunted by zombies while still unarmed at mission start and you WILL still love it even later in the mission to save ammo by doing a little E&E or find a vantage point in firefights with bandits! ALL THE SUPPORTED EQUIPMENT AND WEAPON MODS: See the frontpage in the RAVAGE Release thread to find out which mods are supported by default! And finally the mission itself: Now go get it at Steam Workshop or via this BIS Forums release thread! Version with Zombies: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1235056836 or https://www.dropbox.com/s/hltxztqt0w8v6a5/RAVAGE_CASTAWAY_ZEDS_1.Tanoa.pbo.7z?dl=0 Version without Zombies: TBD/on user request HERE YOU GO: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1241325229 or https://www.dropbox.com/s/efvq6ab4bjmzaos/RAVAGE_CASTAWAY_NOZEDS_1.Tanoa.pbo.7z?dl=0 UPDATE 1: Changed the Hypothermia damage you receive due to BB's temperature script being active when having low body temperature to increase much slower - after all, the original settings were ideal for a mission on WInter Chernarus, but are too harsh for a mission set in the tropic climate of Tanoa. Updated mission's modules to take advantage of the fixes in RAVAGE 1.48 UPDATE 2: Fixed: Mission had dependencies on Warfare Thai and IFA3; removed these so that both mods are just supported, but not required now Fixed the playable slots/AI buddies being invulnerable Fixed Team Switch being unavailable in SP by re-saving and re-uploading the mission with newest RAVAGE version which has this problem fixed Added: Script allowing to lock and unlock vehicles. Only becomes really necessary to use if you play with one of the recommended AI mods. Wether it's ASR AI or VCOM, you WILL face the problem that RAVAGE ambient AI is stealing any cars they come across – and that could break some of the tasks in this mission. Usage of the unlock/lock script is via action menu. And just in case that you a) use VCOM or ASR AI and b) still forget to lock the Radio Relay trucks after (partially) refuelling them I have set the trucks to lock automatically once all players leave the area to spare you from rage quitting after you haul some fuel across the whole island to your radio relay truck... only to see some dirty thieves drive away with it right before your eyes! UPDATE 3 Fixed: Fixed a possible exploit with the refuelling tasks: now there is a check if you syphon out the fuel again after a generator vehicle has been checked as „refuelled“ - now you can no longer refuel one generator and then syphon the fuel out to use that very same fuel on the other generators as well ;-) Updated mission's modules to take advantage of the bugfixes in RAVAGE 1.52 Added: Radio messages in response to players using radio codes „Alpha“ and „Juliet“ after having successfully refuelled all generators and thus established a radio contact to the EVAC vessel. This way you get a more noticeable feedback on whether your SOS call actually got through to the rescue party and what to do next. A task directing you to meet the EVAC ship which gets completed once you come close to the vessel at the designated rendezvous location. A final task ordering you to actually board the EVAC ship which completes after doing so and thus make more obvious what you have to do to trigger the mission end screen. Availability of the Debug Console for all players to extend a helping hand to all the victims of black computer magic who can't access the console in SP... UPDATE 4 Fixed: Fixed a problem with trigger locality preventing the mission from ending properly

Mission that inspired me to try my own approach to this kind of RAVAGE mission, for the great exchange of mission ideas and for playtesting Evil Organ for lots of mission ideas we exchanged during RAVAGE testing Goon for his snowstorm script used in the versions up to 1.3 Monkey/MKY for his sowstorm script used in version 1.4 haleks for creating his awesome RAVAGE Mod and for letting me take part in the MP testing, also of course special thanks for all his coding tips reforger for playtesting extensively with me and giving good advice on mission balance rpgteamx for his YouTube tutorial on markers and how to change their appearance with triggers Here comes the required addon list: CBA A3: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=18767 Chernarus Winter: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29752&highlight=WINTER CUP Terrains Complete: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=30045 CUP Units: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29301 CUP Vehicles: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29716 CUP Weapons: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=27489 RAVAGE: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29638&highlight=RAVAGE RHS US and Russian Packs: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=27149 and http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=27150 RHS GREF: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=30998&highlight=GREF TRYK Uniforms: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=26661&highlight=TRYK TAC VESTS: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29622&highlight=TAC%2BVESTS ALiVE: http://alivemod.com/#Download Additional requirements for the ACE versions: ACE3: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=28557 (already includes compatibility for RHS) CUP Compatibility for ACE: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=29782 and https://drive.google.com/file/d/0By04o_GxOry3dXluZVlMeWNabEk/view?pref=2&pli=1 Optional Addons: ASR AI: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=24080&highlight=ASR Why ASR AI or VCOM AI? These two (use only one of them at a time ofc!) are my personal preference and IMHO the best plug-and-play solutions for SP and MP alike! They make bandits real crappy shooters and Army STALKERS dangerously effective! MOCAP: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=27262&highlight=MOCAP For when you have ran out of ammo amidst a zombie horde or want to finish off an unconscious opponent with the rifle butt... ENHANCED MOVEMENT: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=27224&highlight=ENHANCED%2BMOVEMENT Get! That! Mod! Now! You WILL find it incredibly immersive and helpful to survive the zombie versions of the mission! ALL THE SUPPORTED EQUIPMENT AND WEAPON MODS: See the frontpage in the RAVAGE Release thread to find out which mods are supported by default! UPDATE 1: Added Farooq Revive to NOACE Zombies Version UPDATE 2: Removed the dependencies on ASR AI and WarfareThai - this time for good! UPDATE 3: Adjusted the mission to the possibilities of RAVAGE version 1.39.1 hotfixed: Spawn distance for Zombies and Ambient AI is between 100 and 1000 meters, meaning you CAN get surprised and ambushed, but you also can snipe all enemies from a distance Added support in the Equipment Pool for Iron Front LITE (all content) and Frith's Ruins (equipment only atm) UPDATE 4: Fixed the issue with the extreme brightness/lighting problem (blindingly bright snow) introduced into the mission after the graphics engine updates of ARMA 1.62 and newer by utilizing another snow script. Mildly updated the mission to make use of the improvements that came with RAVAGE 1.4.1, namely loot and equipment module variety: now props will spawn and lootable trash piles and furniture are there for you to scavenge! UPDATE 5: (Mostly)Fixed the ending triggers not registering properly if just one Lone Survivor or a whole group has made it out of Winter Chernarus. All works perfectly well in SP, but can still fail sometimes in MP. Have not yet found out why... Switched to AIS/A3Wounding System for the Revive – this is the HOT stuff cuz it works in SP also! See ingame Briefing hints for instructions on using that awesome piece of code and for the settings active in this mission! Basically it's like this: one of the playable slots is a Doctor. Only he can do a full Revive in MP if all slots are occupied by human players. If you have any AI or play SP, your teammates will all be able to heal each other and you. In „mixed MP“ with some humans and some AI, the AI will also help the humans, even if those AI buddies are NOT the „Storyline Doctor“. Added TAC VESTS dependency because it's used to fix the Armor values of the TRYK vests Added ALiVE saving (local save, NO WarRoom Account necessary!) and player modules to the mission – this means you can use BIS save or ALiVE save in SP and only ALiVE save in MP. I have chosen to do so because the ALiVE save gives full object and inventory persistence for any and all boxes or vehicles or even loot objects left on the ground which players access during a SP or MP session. The usage in this mission is just for the persistence; so you don't need a Master Degree in ALiVE Gameplay. In fact, you won't even need a B.A. In SP, just press the ESC button and then you can choose between the usual „Save&Exit“ button or the „ALiVE SP Save“ button. Loading happens automatically when you start the mission. Even if you don't see the usual „continue“ button in A3 Scenario list, don't worry. ALiVE essentially emulates it's MP save resuming system when you use it in SP. So once you are ingame again, it will load the previous session's state automatically. You can also use ALiVE for managing your survivor team or for some debug/cheat options. If you want this, just press the „application“ button or whatever you have chosen to associate with ALiVE Menu. If you die in SP while using ALiVE save, you won't get a „reload“ button. Instead, quit to main menu and „restart“ the mission. You will load your last manual ALiVE Menu „Player Save“ or your last „ALiVE SP Save“ made on exiting the mission last time. In MP, you should try to get access to the GUI that lets you make an individual player save with ALiVE. You'll need that save if you want to leave the server before the other players or before the player who is Admin shuts it down. Speaking of which: easy as well! As Admin, press ESC, then choose „Server Save & Exit“. That's it! Once you do that, you save any players still on the server. Also in MP, the resuming of the mission is automatically. Oh, and you can move stuff around in the gameworld if it's not too heavy to lift. Crates, barbed wire, dropped weapons... Also you can load boxes (and their inventory) into your vehicles and later unload these again with mousewheel actions if the boxes are in a distance of 2 meters or less from the vehicles. And finally the mission itself: Now go get it at Steam Workshop or via this BIS Forums release thread!

Ive been working on a ravage scenerio on Tanoa for roughly a month now, Issue is if i respawn 2 or 3 times on the same respawn point i encounter the bug where im teleported to the southwest corner of the map and drown there, i had this issue before when i was using my own respawn system, i thought that was the cause but its still happening now that im using Ravages respawn camps. If anyone knows a fix for this im willing to try anything, i have alot of time invested in this, thanks.

Ive created a decent size scenerio using the respawn system that works by placing the empty marker and naming it "Respawn_west". I am then placing other empty markers with triggers that change that empty markers name to "respawn west". This works fine for moving the respawn point around the map. Ive had no issues so far but now after i respawned 3 times in quick succession on a single point, i am able to move for about 10 seconds before im teleported to bottom left corner of the map under the ocean. I know this is a really common issue within arma 3, im just looking here hoping that someone knows what may be causing this or even a possible fix, thanks.

Alright, Haleks has given permission to port the Vanilla ravage Mission over to other maps for those who would like it and I will provide the template I use as well. At this point it will be straight vanilla ports with simple scripts added if it makes sense. I think of ETG crash & drop when I say that. I most likely will do a non zed version of those for those who prefer that and if need be provide those to rosoftkz for Roads if he wishes to port that to other maps as well. Roads is here --- > https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/186118-sp-roads-for-ravage //----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outline The general plan is for you guys to pick a map then We need to agree on default setting in the modules then I will port it over and we will then test it to see if those settings are good if they are not, I will tweak it and we can retest it until we can come to some type of democratic decision on what a standard can be and I will port the future mission with those settings. This should speed it up as time goes on. I will provide the mission folder for the editor and a pbo that will be immediately playable. //------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How you can help - Post some settings preferences and politely discuss - Suggest some scripts that can legitimately be used that make sense for ravage -Test the ported missions to see how many things I messed up - Have fun and don't be all downers... - Get your Relentless Creator Achievement, the editor is your friend, your frustrating annoying friend who you learn you don't want to live without... don't be scared - Send Haleks, BadBenson, or your favorite mod author beer money... lol.... :cheers: //----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stuff This will fall under whatever Licence Haleks has chosen for Ravage. Ravage Thread here ---> https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/183264-ravage-mod/ All Credit goes to Haleks and if other scripts are used credits will be in the missions readme. I won't be doing configs for weapons... rosoftkz has a fairly simple system that should be fairly easy to get your mod of choice in the lootlists. He or I can link that later here. Thanks to BI, the community as a whole... And all the mod authors making this game so interesting... Well... Cheers... Carry on...

Available from Steam workshop http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=884232981 A compromised mission to eliminate a high priority target descends into a desperate fight for survival. 1 to 4 player RAVAGE scenario. Objective based with side missions both marked and unmarked on map. Ranges across approximately 25km of Altis terrain encompassing a full 24hr cycle. Time scale is set to 6x and hunger/thirst is set at 2x the norm, you will have to eat and drink to complete your objectives. The final section can be reached before nightfall if you get lucky with transport. However it was designed with a stealth, undercover of darkness approach, use the Ravage rest function if you get there with time to spare. Should you succumb to the infected, bandits, starve or die of thirst there are incremental respawn points throughout the mission and you return to the game with the loadout you die with. The basic arma revive system is also in place and stamina is disabled. Do yourself a favour, subscribe to Arma enhanced movement and set it up. Climbing on to the roof of buildings and over walls will help you avoid zombies and negotiating towns with faction Ai hunting you is much more fun when you can get over that wall or climb through a window. However, AEM is not a requirement for this scenario. You will need to get ravage from Here Cup weapons and RHS weapons will show up on bandits if you have the mods enabled, though once again they are not required. No other mods are supported with this scenario and they will almost certainly disrupt its effective usage if enabled. My Thanks to Daz, Kodabar and Jimmakos for help in both creating and testing Bib. Thanks also to the arma community for all the great tutorials out there. And of course the biggest thank you to HALEKS for creating RAVAGE. YUKi.

RAVAGE TOURISM ESSEKER Hello RAVAGE Fans! Today I present you my personal vision of surviving the Zombie Apocalypse using the perfect framework, RAVAGE, and the perfect map, Esseker. Short overview: Title: RAVAGE TOURISM ESSEKER Version: 1.5 Author: tourist Type: SP/COOP 1-12 Roleplaying Game Respawn: Base/Markers Game Version: created on 1.56 Stable and playtested with my buddies reforger and cosmic on 1.56 Stable; updated & tested on 1.76 stable Language: English Credits go of course to all the addon creators who made this possible in the first place. All addon makers do deserve our respect and gratitude, but in this thread I'll name especially those who were most important for this particular mission: Haleks for the awesome RAVAGE Mod and mission making framework ronhillultra and the rest of the team behind the Esseker map for their dedication to create an ideal staging area for apocaplyptic missions hcpookie for his Battlebus MrHuachuca for his atmospheric music and sound collection that greatly inspired the music selection in this mission - even if I have decided to not use his pack anymore in a published mission to avoid the copyright controversies it may cause. Psychobastard for his PDF A3 Editing Guide in German and for his AWESOME Revive Script AIS/A3 Wounding System Next to credit are my fellow RAVAGERS that helped my with scripts, advice or templates: Bad Benson who not only made the Enhanced Movement addon so crucial for surviving in RAVAGE missions in general, but also offered the immersive script suite to the community that enhances SP and MP RAVAGE alike with vehicle crashsites, bandit camps, and, the most important element IMHO for immersion: The Temperature System! Bad Benson also helped me kindly with tailoring his script suite to my special needs for this mission - thanks a ton, buddy! cosmic10r for building and presenting the first Escape! Mission for RAVAGE Jimmakos for his awesome Esseker Mission that was a major source of inspiration for my own vision of RAVAGE on Esseker. Haleks himself for his continuous tips in the PM thread while testing the DEV versions of RAVAGE or in the forum when I had mission making questions And last but not least my buddy reforger for playtesting with me in MP and giving advice on mission design! What to expect from RAVAGE TOURISM ESSEKER? 11 different random start locations in SP and a spread out start for the survivor team in MP- some are better, some are worse in the sense that you spawn far away from the AI teammates in SP or far away from your buddies in MP. Random gear in MP for all but one player slot who is designed to be the SP hero of this adventure and who is a die-hard prepper Music that is part of the missions design and will be heard during the course of the mission in key locations. An open world with a lot more to discover than just an escape vehicle, if you so choose... Just read the Briefing and hints carefully! Epic fights against bandits and zombies while constantly struggling to keep your needs satisfied in a world more than one year after the apocalypse - that means ultra-rare loot (the challenge becomes even bigger the more people you are in coop - then you need in the worst case 11 times the amount of food and drink than in SP) and a total of just two driveable vehicles availble "for free" on the entire map besides the escape vehicles - and you must walk there first... Carefully crafted locations which are there to provide specific loot in logical locations or which were created to help in building immersion and some more storyline Additional food sources in the form of rogue farm animals that live and thrive in the more rural areas of the map - but you must find them first since they are set to wander, not to stay put! Random spawns for the escape vehicles: if you are lucky, they are close to a place where you can find fuel and repair equipment for them, if your unlucky, well, hit the road and look for your loot!

YouTube Channel featuring clips and Episodes of this mission and my other RAVAGE mission: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsOXKlspvVe5HGSNlSbveFg UPDATE 5 (the updates 1-4 were just WIP steps and never saw a release ) (Mostly)Fixed the ending triggers not registering properly if just one Lone Survivor or a whole group has made it out of Esseker. All works perfectly well in SP, but can still fail sometimes in MP. Have not yet found out why... Switched to AIS/A3Wounding System for the Revive – this is the HOT stuff cuz it works in SP also! See ingame Briefing hints for instructions on using that awesome piece of code and for the settings active in this mission! Basically it's like this: all of the playable slots can play „Doctor“ and do a full Revive in MP if they have FAK's or Medikit. If you have just AI with 1 player or play SP, your teammates will all be able to heal each other and you. In „mixed MP“ with some humans and some AI, the AI will also help the humans in their own group. You can help the RAVAGE spawned BLUFOR Survivors though, and will receive radio messages and map markers informing you about wounded BLUFOR survivors' locations. Added TAC VESTS dependency because it's used to fix the Armor values of the TRYK vests Added a few simple quests (default A3 Task system used) to the Double Tap Gun Range and the Science Camp; will be obtained automatically on entering certain areas Added a recruitment Flag to the Double Tap Range: You can now recruit desperate survivors who have lost everything into your team – if you load @inidbi2 in SP or MP clientside, up to 11 of these recruited AI Teammates get full ALiVE persistence, i.e. their position, health, inventory and ammocount are saved and will be automatically restored upon ALiVE loading your persistence savegame. Beware: the playable slots which if unoccupied by a human player will join you upon coming into view range to their start locations are not affected by this in the same way; they only teleport to your location, but will re-load their editor set equipment. So if you want pack mules to store your loot, go recruit at the Double Tap Flag since only these units will keep whatever you gave them before saving/quitting. Also ofc ANY vehicle or crate is good for saving now with ALiVE active. (See below!) Added ALiVE saving (local save, NO WarRoom Account necessary!) and player modules to the mission – this means you can use BIS save or ALiVE save in SP and only ALiVE save in MP. I have chosen to do so because the ALiVE save gives full object and inventory persistence for any and all boxes or vehicles or even loot objects left on the ground which players access during a SP or MP session. The usage in this mission is just for the persistence; so you don't need a Master Degree in ALiVE Gameplay. In fact, you won't even need a B.A. In SP, just press the ESC button and then you can choose between the usual „Save&Exit“ button or the „ALiVE SP Save“ button. Loading happens automatically when you start the mission. Even if you don't see the usual „continue“ button in A3 Scenario list, don't worry. ALiVE essentially emulates it's MP save resuming system when you use it in SP. So once you are ingame again, it will load the previous session's state automatically. You can also use ALiVE for managing your survivor team or for some debug/cheat options. If you want this, just press the „application“ button or whatever you have chosen to associate with ALiVE Menu. If you die in SP while using ALiVE save, you won't get a „reload“ button. Instead, quit to main menu and „restart“ the mission. You will load your last manual ALiVE Menu „Player Save“ or your last „ALiVE SP Save“ made on exiting the mission last time. In MP, you should try to get access to the GUI that lets you make an individual player save with ALiVE. You'll need that save if you want to leave the server before the other players or before the player who is Admin shuts it down. Speaking of which: easy as well! As Admin, press ESC, then choose „Server Save & Exit“. That's it! Once you do that, you save any players still on the server. Also in MP, the resuming of the mission is automatically. Oh, and you can move stuff around in the gameworld if it's not too heavy to lift. Crates, barbed wire, dropped weapons... Also you can load boxes (and their inventory) into your vehicles and later unload these again with mousewheel actions if the boxes are in a distance of 2 meters or less from the vehicles. WOHOO!
