I'm trying to make a scenario for my unit. We are a PMC and we use expendable vehicles. I'm trying to give us some light armor that we can use but I'd like to make all of our vehicles black like they normally are and, I can't seem to find a way to make the BTR-80 black without using a mod that has ISIS symbols written all over it. I was wondering if anyone here knew how I can personally edit the vehicle in any way to maybe either remove these ISIS symbols or color my own. If possible I'd like to keep this within Bohemia's parameters and not have to use a personal mod, but if need be I can. Thank you in advance! ~Balthasaar

I have been working on doing some retexturing of some Arma 3 vehicles for a MillSim unit I am a part of since we are thinking about using them in our operations. I’m getting close to being done with a few of the textures and will be starting on writing the configs for the texture pack soon. Being new at modding in Arma I have a question when it comes to writing the configs. From all the tutorials I can find it seems like the “standard” way to do this is make a new vehicle that uses the same configs and model that the vehicle I am retexturing uses, but just with my new textures. I kind of don’t like this Idea as I would much rather just add the texture to the list of available camouflage options for the existing vehicle instead of having a full new vehicle. Does anyone know how I can add my new textures to the list of available textures for that vehicle so it can be changed in 3den, or can point me to some resources that can help? Or is there a reason that I should make each one a new vehicle? Thanks for the help in advance. -
Prohibit unit to enter vehicle after leaving it
jts_2009 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello. I have following problem: I put AI into vehicle with moveindriver command. After some event he should leave it by: unAssignVehicle sct1; [sct1] orderGetIn false; sct1 action ["GetOut", vehicle sct1]; And after some times he should enter another vehicle by: [sct1] orderGetIn true; sct1 assignAsCargo EscapeBoat; but that ass go back to the first vehicle and enters it. I tried 'allowGetIn false' command. But after I write allowGetIn true, he goes back to the first vehicle. I don't know whats wrong with that vehicle-crap... He just goes back to the first vehicle and enters it even after unAssign commands and other... -
Hello, I've been succesfully using this "safezone.sqf" script to restrict small arms fire, throwing grenades and placing explosives inside a "spawn protected area" which essentially is a trigger area. I assume the script itself is an evolution of grenadeStop.sqf by Bake or it could be from completely different origins who knows. In short what the script does is that it will delete the fired projectile, thrown grenade or placed explosive and display a message that can be customized freely with #define MESSAGE "Type your message here" To add the restriction to certain projectile, grenade or explosive the classname needs to be typed in the SPAWN_Restriction = -field I was trying to use the aforementioned script to also restrict vehicles from firing their guns inside the spawn protected area but it is so that declaring the ammo classnames (that are used in different vehicles) in the SPAWN_Restriction = ["insert ammo classname here"]; is not enough to get the job done. The question here would be that: whether the safezone.sqf can be adapted in a way so that using vehicle guns (or "turrets") to shoot inside the spawn protected area would also be restricted? (if so, any suggestion on how-to?) OR if I should start looking for a completely different approach with the issue at hand (if so, any suggestions what should that approach then be)? There weren't too many discussions available that did share somekind of similarity with what I'm asking here. I actually only found this and this but well, for me those didn't give the comforting "I got this and I know I can do this" feeling. Thus here I am, asking questions. Greetings Asmodeuz -
Ok so i'm creating a mission on Tanoa where i need to have players load 2 prowlers into a blackfish, once the vehicles are loaded i need that to signal the pilot to take off and air drop at designated location. Now taking off and air dropping i've got working but how do i make it signal the AI pilot to waitUntil the 2 prowlers are loaded. For the waypoint i have this doMove (getMarkerPos "DropPoint");

Spawn protection for players and vehicles alike (dedicated server)
Asmodeuz posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello, I'd like to have a protection zone (spawn protection) for both human players and vehicles (empty or not) inside a trigger area. This should work in dedicated server environment. I've tried two slightly different approaches and neither of them work well enough. The most current I'm trying to get to work is one where I placed a trigger for Independent side with the following attributes: Type: None Activation: Independent Activation Type: Present Repetable [Yes] Server Only [No] Condition this On Activation {(player) allowDamage false} forEach playableUnits; hint "Spawn protection enabled"; On Deactiavation {(player) allowDamage true} forEach playableUnits; hint "Spawn protection disabled"; While testing this works quite nicely. Leaving the trigger area on foot makes the player vulnerable to everything that can actually kill the player. But as long as the player stays inside the trigger area he/she will be invulnerable. Pretty basic stuff I guess. But there's a catch: if the player spawns a vehicle inside the trigger area, jumps in the vehicle for a short moment, then jumps out and leaves the trigger area on foot and as long as the vehicle stays inside the trigger area the player will be invulnerable. Why is this happening and how would I go on to fix it? Earlier I was trying to use another approach to this: Type: None Activation: Independent Activation Type: Present Repetable [Yes] Server Only [No] Condition ((vehicle player) in thisList) On Activation {(vehicle player) allowDamage false} Foreach thislist; hint "Spawn protection enabled"; On Deactiavation {(vehicle player) allowDamage true} forEach [allUnits, vehicles]; hint "Spawn protection disabled"; This worked as well as the first one: when the player moves out of the trigger area on foot he/she will become vulnerable. But as with the another approach spawning a vehicle and getting in produces awkward result: now even if the player drives out of the trigger area he will be invulnerable indefinitely. So all in all neither of the two approaches work well enough. Also both of the alternatives don't make vehicles invulnerable at all when situated inside the trigger area. Any pointers how to achieve player and vehicle invulnerability at the same time using a trigger? -
Altis Life cleaner + special vehicles store in garage system
Valdas Stonkus posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hello, I would like special vehicles store in garage system and cleaner. Altis Life v5. Garage system: When vehicle storing to garage and if vehicle is not empty (any loot or resource in trunk or vehicle inventory) it must be stored in this garage and not allowed to retrieve it from another garage. Cleaner of left things: Every 15 min. server makes list of loot and vehicles on the ground (left players objects). If after 15 min. the inventory item or vehicle was not picked up or there was nothing players around 150 meters: -loot delete -vehicles goes to nearest owner garage This cleaner could save fps of servers. I would be very grateful if you could write a script or link to similar project. Thank you. -
[Solved] Vehicle drives slow on all maps except VR
Warner posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS - CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
Hello, I primarily do scripting and map work but recently wanted to try to make a vehicle. I have a vehicle in game and working, only problem is the vehicle will only go 42 km/h on all maps except the VR map. I know that it has something to do with the ground material but i'm not sure what to change since this is not my area. I tried to look up the problem but found a bunch of unrelated problems. Thanks for any help I can get. EDIT: I'm a idiot I knew that terrainCoef would change its interaction with the ground but for some reason I didn't think to edit it. -
Edit: Nvm close this please. i just fixed the dedicated server issue (forgot to do an isDedicated check) so now putting the script in the vehicle init isn't required. Hey guys, i've been away from the ArmA scene for a while but it's all coming back pretty quick. I feel like ArmA is lying to me; in the init of a vehicle i have the following: nul = [this] execVM "scripts\mhq\respawnmhq.sqf"; and the first two lines of respawnmhq.sqf are: _mhqveh = _this select 0; _vehiclepos = getPos _mhqveh; So then when i launch the mission to test in the editor it has the gall to say respawnmhq.sqf has an: "Error getpos: Type Array, expected Object,Location". Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no damn array in there right? [this] is an array with a single item from what i know but it's in the vehicle init not the script, _mhqveh is defined as the 'this' from within the array so is that causing it to think _mhqveh is an array? If so is there another way to execVM that script from the vehicle init? I'm doing this to avoid putting this script in the Init.sqf because really it doesn't need to go in there and if i do that it activates twice on dedicated servers but that's another issue entirely (which I'm pretending doesn't happen).

Hello everyone. I am trying to make a Multiplayer mission where people have to get teleported into a vehicle. I got a Blackfish called "unit1" flying, and I want every player in the server to be teleported into that vehicle. I have tried many different command but nothing seems to work. I thought "moveInCargo" should work, but that only works on local units, not remote units. Things that I tried: {_x action ["getInCargo", unit1]} foreach allPlayers Player1 moveInCargo [unit1, 1]; Player2 moveInCargo [unit1, 2]; Player3 moveInCargo [unit1, 3]; Player4 moveInCargo [unit1, 4]; Player5 moveInCargo [unit1, 5]; Player6 moveInCargo [unit1, 6]; Whatever I try, only me (The host) gets teleported into the vehicle. Other players don't. Does someone know how to make this work?

Respawning a vehicle with objects attached to it
Nowhere posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
I'm trying to get a vehicle that has three objects attached to it to respawn with the objects attached to it. In this case its a UGV Stomper that has an ammo crate and two fuel pods attached with the attachto command. I have the drone synced to a vehicle spawn point and it respawns correctly. The objects that are attached do NOT respawn at all even after syncing them to the vehicle respawn point. So, how do I get those objects to respawn and reattach themselves to the drone after the drone is destroyed and respawns? -
Further changing Vehicle Skins (Interiors/Glass)
Brian Sherbino posted a topic in ARMA 3 - ADDONS - CONFIGS & SCRIPTING
class textureSources { class LOGISTIC { displayName="LOGISTIC"; author="BSherb"; textures[]= { "LogisticChinook\skins\Heli_Transport_03_VSS.paa", "LogisticChinook\skins\Heli_Transport2_03_VSS.paa", "LogisticChinook\skins\Heli_Transport3_03_VSS_Glass.paa" }; factions[]= { "BLU_F" }; }; }; So, in this case, I'm trying to replace the glass with a specific texture I have devised. However, nothing changes at all. Not even a different texture that I didn't mean to change. Instead, it seems to ignore the glass and only do the regular exterior of the Huron. Am I putting my textures in the wrong order, am I missing something crucial that prevents certain changes? (If there is a specific order things need to be in where can I find said order?) -
I'll try to be as simple as possible. Without having to completely remodel the chinook from in game, I'd like to be able to add another variant that is re-skinned as a new vehicle (or at least acts like a separate vehicle, and not a skin added through the mission file). I've managed to get all of the .paa files edited to my liking, as well as a basemod that currently houses my communities content. However, I have no clue how to implement the new skins into the mod so that Arma 3 will recognize said files, and create a new vehicle within Zeus/3den. So, clarification recap: Just a vehicle skin addition On a separate vehicle with a new name

Kicking opfor from blufor vehicles and vica-versa
KdubyaDOG556 posted a topic in ARMA 3 - MISSION EDITING & SCRIPTING
Hey everyone, I was wondering if someone could help me develop a script that would allow blufor units to only be able to enter Blufor vehicles as well as Opfor only being able to enter Opfor vehicles. I would need an array to be specific to what vehicles I would allow units to enter. I do not want the unit to be killed, just kicked out of the vehicle. Thanks, Kdubyadog556 -
So your typical Arma3 tank, apc has some predefined stuff in it for infantry. A couple of rifles, some ammo, smoke grenades etc. You can customize it. What you want in cargo depends on your mission and I realize this is the case in real life, so there is no ultimate cargo or maybe even typical cargo. I am still curious though, about what real missions take on in their vehicles. There are probably some guidelines, even if its only the financial cost of extra things you want to take, or the physical capacity or weight and size that play a role. - For instance, in many Arma missions, there are some spare rifles stowed in vehicles. Is this realistic? Is this standard? are rifles considered cheap or expensive? - I usually chuck some extra ammo and grenades in the vehicles if the mission allows that. How is that in real missions? Is it normal to have 20 extra mags on a patrol vehicle? or a 100? Are grenades important to have lots of extras? What kind of formula's are used to calculate vehicle cargo supplies? Who decides? If you have a squad on a vehicle, would you want to double the load they have on their bodies with the cargo? multiply it by a factor of days on mission and expected ammo use? Does anyone ever take a bow and arrow on a mission in the cargo? (this is the most important question) I know that real-life military personnel regularly enlightens the Arma community on issues of realism, so I would be very happy if some could give pointers to take into account for creating Arma missions, or even just an interesting comparison between the game and RL.

Hi everybody, I'm trying to spawn a vehicle with crew via script and add one or more waypoionts to it. eerything works fine if the spawnd unit is an infantry group. But if the group contains a vehicle it dosen't work. After searching the net for a solution I found dozends of topics bout it. But they all didn't help me with my problem. Here is the script I use: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- if(!isServer)exitWith{}; G001 = createGroup east; _veh = createVehicle ["CUP_O_BMP_HQ_RU",getMarkerPos "X1",[],0,"NONE"]; [ _veh, [ ["CUP_O_RU_Soldier_VDV_EMR","driver"] ] ] call BIS_fnc_initVehicleCrew; WP001 = G001 addWaypoint [getMarkerPos "X1a", 0]; WP001 setWaypointType "MOVE"; WP001 setWaypointSpeed "LIMITED"; WP001 setWaypointBehaviour "SAFE"; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The vehicle spawns after I have activated the script, but the unit doesen't care about the waypoint. I'm pretty shure I have forgotten something, but I really don't know what. Maybe one of you can help me with that. Thanks for helping me Greetz Joa

Spawn empty vehicle and set its direction

Hi. I am spawning a jet via trigger by using this: _vehicleObject = "B_Plane_CAS_01_F" createVehicle (getMarkerPos "marker_spawn_A10");, but its always pointing towards 180. I want it to look towards 270 or so... you get it. Can anyone help me please? I know this is pretty basic and there is a thread covering this somewhere probably... couldnt find it though. -

Hello all. I'm trying to set up a simple Zeus template mission using the Nimitz as a base. I'm having issues with player and vehicle respawn. Player Respawn: I'm using the respawn module and have set the following parameters. My problem is players respawn under the carrier at ocean level. If I sync the players to the respawn module, they respawn where they die despite having the "respawn on custom position" selected. I've also tried setting an invisible heli pad as a respawn point but to no avail. What am I doing wrong? Vehicle Respawn: Vehicles respawn on their original position as they are supposed to however they start with their engine on as if I spawned them in the air even thought they are empty. Settings and screencap of the problem below. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. :)
