Siege of Athira Persistent survival PVE/PVP SP/Hosted MP (10 players)/Dedicated MP mission (10 players) It is something I always wanted to play. Basically you are surviving NATO soldier in besieged town. Town is besieged by CSAT and inside you are trapped with few surviving guerrillas resistance. Groups/singles of guerrillas fight each other in town and you need to go out from your hideout under town to find equipment and food. Food is found at houses furniture and equipment usually on dead bodies or guerrilla secret boxes scattered around town.Every raid that last 90m you need go out and then find shelter entrance randomly scattered around the town to get back to your underground hideout. If you die in town everything you had with you is lost and you born as new NATO survivor. Everything that is stored in hideout stash is safe for your next life. You cannot escape town cos CSAT snipers and there is zone between town and factory that you need be careful to cross it. During night you can use chemlights and attach it on you or wait for CSAT flare for snipers above town or use gun lamp or if lucky NVG.Only vanilla ARMA 3 is needed. No mods and no DLCs are required. Your progress is saved automatically in SP/MP.Enjoy and report all experience/bugs/ideas. As I am not native please report any text corrections needed.

Project URL: https://gitlab.com/sukhoi191/arma-3-persistent-save-system While I was playing Ravage mod, a lot of problems with the official save system emerged after time, since it probably wasn't created with long-term missions in mind (I mean like 50+ hours spent on a single mission). Most prominent issues I came across were: worsening performance, probably due to a lot of stuff that was saved and wasn't really necessary for Ravage playthrough, for example: every single damage to every single building, even if you just accidentally tapped one with a car; compatilibty issues - while fixing save file after minor version update was pretty easy, I wasn't able to fix it after major version update, which I think is expected, since major version change can make some things incompatible (this was also the last straw that made me start this project); gameplay issues (at least in Ravage), for example: actions taking forever to perform and very long saving / loading times. After playing Antistasi, I was pretty amazed by its save system, which was using profileNamespace to save data. It's elegant and easy to backup, as long as you keep separate ArmA 3 profile for each mission using this save system. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be written with reusability in mind. Considering all this, I've decided to write my own persistent save system, which is based on Antistasi idea (i.e. using profileNamespace). I've tried to make it as extensible as possible. I wasn't considering MP while working on this project and I'm pretty sure it's currently SP only, but I have no problem with extending it for MP as well, although I can't really do that right now, since I'm lacking some knowledge in that matter. If you know more than me and think that it's worth your time, you can certainly help with making it happen 🙂 I'm using it for Ravage and it works flawlessly. Currently, it's in alpha stage, since noone besides me really tested it. Of course, there's a lot of room for improvement, but here's what's implemented right now: Saving and loading data of: units (class, damage, position, direction, equipment, side, skill, full identity, rating, stamina + fatigue, formation, variables, orders, team color, units in group (if given unit is a leader), vehicle if unit is inside one); vehicles (class, fuel, damage, cargo, position, direction, turrets data, materials, textures); containers (class, cargo, position, rotation); specified variables from any namespace; map markers (appearance, position, rotation, text, user-defined). Simple trigger-based radio save system (1-9 are slots, 0 is used for saving - save is created automatically on the oldest slot). Action for marking / unmarking given vehicle for save (it can be easily extended for other object types as well). What I want to be done in the future: Releasing Ravage mission with this mod built-in, along with some other helpful stuff. It's WIP and I think it should be ready pretty soon. Making it into a Module (currently, I have no idea how to do this, I'm not really an addon guy). Creating GUI for saving, since radio-based system isn't that great, as it doesn't let you choose the slot on which the game will be saved and prevents you from using radio for other purposes. I think a custom GUI in game menu can be created with CBA (?) Extending saved data along with BI extensions of scripting language. Stuff described on issues page. Any suggestions, criticism, ideas and help in development will be greatly appreciated! Let me know, what you think about this project 🙂

Hi all, this is going to be fairly long-winded with no tldr and is an extremely large project, at least for me. There's a lot of "I would like" in this post, I'm not a supercilious person I'm just unsure how else to word things. I'm making a scenario to run with my mates whenever we feel like it, usually 8 hours or so every second night, I have a dedicated machine I run the server from but I don't like leaving it on 24/7. I have maybe 200 hours basic scenario creation experience and the scenario itself is a big passion project for me, the basic issues I run into are a nice thing to sort out, the scripting issues or more so lack of scripts are stopping my ideas. I have a few problems which naturally snowballed into more what-ifs and issues. I haven't delved into scripts at all, just basic commands in triggers and game logic, improving along the way. I have very minor coding experience, 2 University courses worth and a lot of this is way above my head so I'm reaching out for help, I'm hoping people will help out of the kindness of their heart but I know time is money and there are a lot of issues, so if it is allowed I'm willing to pay privately with details also discussed privately. I'd hire a private programmer but much of the arma3 context would be lost which is important. Persistent saving/loading: The scenario is essentially a campaign completing tasks as we see fit to retake land and reach an ultimate goal, which I'm undecided on. I'd like essentially all vehicles, player loadouts, player positions, gear in 'crates' and a virtual arsenal we can load with gear from missions, to save upon server shutdown and load upon server start-up. I've looked at a few mods that promise some of these things but they all require player intervention or won't work with custom scenarios, I want an automated system from the moment we first join the server to the moment the campaign finishes. The virtual arsenal is a problem on it's own as I have no clue how to create something that saves gear, much like the antistasi community have made. The other things I know exist because there are multiplayer servers with these features but I'd have no clue how to go about setting it up properly. Problems with the start of the mission: The mission starts with no respawn and 6 playable characters in a boat, spectator enabled, with respawnOnStart -1 and respawn as BASE. Once the first objective is complete the respawn enables (lore critical). Disabling spectator mode isn't an option as people just respawn on their dead bodies, plus I'd rather people have something to do after they die in the first section of the scenario. The mission plays out how I want it to with AI disabled and all players connected when I launch the mission (not using autoinit) however there are other issues. With AI Disabled, players that hotjoin once the mission has started spawn where the playable characters are placed, rather than as a spectator until the respawn is enabled, which I want to fix. Furthermore if players die and rejoin they spawn in the initial playable character spot, out in the ocean, 2km from land, even if they have already died as that character. In my experience not using respawnOnStart -1 results in everyone being a spectator when the mission starts, so I assume 'running the respawn script' once the mission has started would fix this since players that join would be spectators due to being forced to respawn on joining, but I'm not sure how to do that. I also suspect this would cause more issues with further questions about persistent saving and loading. With AI Enabled, players that hotjoin once the mission has started replace the AI, which is fine for something temporary, but the issue is I don't want to run the mission with AI Enabled on the playable characters. Again much like with AI Disabled with an added bonus, upon leaving the server an AI spawns on the playable characters initial position and then once the player joins they take control of it, even if they have already died. I haven't tested with autoinit but I presume they would spawn in the boat if taking control of an AI with AI enabled, otherwise in the water underneath the boat with AI disabled. The same issues with leaving and rejoining would likely occur in either case. I realise this is a complex issue once taking into account persistent saving and loading and will involve a custom respawn script, but I'm not even sure where i'd begin myself. What I would like to work up to: I would like to have the initial 5 minutes of server start to be the editor placed player positions from the roles selected, even if the boat has moved (which i'm not sure is possible and open to alternatives) as people may take longer to load. Further respawns and hotjoins should be spectator up until the point the respawn is enabled, spectator should then disable, then a custom loadout be the default respawn loadout and the respawn point be a selectable spawn after death, it must be selectable since we'll have more respawns enabled as the campaign continues. After the initial respawn is enabled any players positions and gear are saved and loaded on player disconnect and reconnect respectively, along with their gear. When the server is shutdown I would like the mission file to save and overwrite (completing missions triggers deletion of clutter not needed anymore), vehicles to save where they are, in their current health/fuel state with current 'gear', containers with 'gear' to do the same. I would also like to have a virtual arsenal as mentioned before that takes in gear and saves it much like antistasi does only with no 'unlock' feature, just what is put in. On server startup I would like all of this to load in and continue from where it was saved. If you're interested in helping me out please send me a message, any comments that can help are welcome.

[COOP] Vindicta (Alpha) I'm very excited to show to Arma community the scenario we have been working on for more than a year. This all started several years ago inspired by the amazing Antistasi scenario made by @barbolani. The main goal was to make a large scale guerrilla-themed mission with main focus on simulation of all resources controlled by enemy side. For me personally it has been a great journey through topics such as AI, multiple programming languages, software architecture concepts, Arma addon creation, collaborative code development, and many others. Allright, enough for that, let's get to mission features. Main features Dynamic game world. At game start everything is relatively peaceful and not all outposts are occupied by enemy, players can travel around without opposition. Persistence of all units at all garrisons and locations (outposts, bases, roadblocks, and so on). As player activity rises in specific area, commander AI will react by deploying quick reaction forces (QRF) and patrols, occupying outposts, constructing roadblocks, and more. Players start only with handguns and slowly build up their guerrilla movement by capturing equipment and by recruiting civilians. Intel discovery: actions planned by the enemy commander AI can be discovered by players through intel items or radio interception. Players can use this advance knowledge to intercept supply convoys, patrols, and attacks. Since all enemy logistics are calculated, guerrilla tactics are the most effective way to reduce enemy forces and to deplete enemy supplies. For instance, destroying enemy transports will force enemies to either counter-attack on foot or to send support from elsewhere, until transportation is resupplied from another outpost. At the start of a new campaign no enemy locations are known to players. They can be discovered by talking to civilians or by scouting. A multi-level AI system which controls AI behavior from commander level down to unit level. Undercover functionality, which calculates "suspiciousness" of players based on their behavior, clothes, stance and visibility in vehicles. Players can deploy as many camps, outposts, and roadblocks as they need if they have enough resources. The enemy can also capture those locations. Campaign customization: you can choose factions to fight against, and the initial number of enemies. The "unit virtualization system" coupled with AI of units: AI units despawn if they are too far away from enemies or players, but are still able to perform their actions "virtually". This also drastically reduces the chance of AI units getting stuck while attempting to reach the enemy.

Hello, I'm happy to announce you the futur release of my last project concerning Arma game. Initially, i fixed to myself a mod development challenge to release it in one month. It Was in 2018. I missed the target cause i had to suspend it for others projects. But .. as some of players asked for it, and i'm not sastisfied to not finish my work, i release it now. My main idea was respected, and i mainly focused on the essential. Don't expect the game to be tweaked as a final release, but be aware that it offers more advanced features than what must of missions did. Goal : eXtinction is a Survival Mission that takes place on Liviona at the begining of a sanitary crisis. Players can play together or individual. The main scenario wich is not mandatory is you act as a special commando and have to discover what's happen in the Liviona country. Communications with HQ are broken since few days, ammos and moral are low. The population suffers from a mysterious disease (..) Like all survival Game, eXtinction manages the thirst, the hunger, the illness, etc. You will find everything you need to stay alive on your way. With the inventory system that replaces totaly the Arma vanilla one, you interact with all the objects of the game. You could search and find stuff everywhere. But more, to stay alive, you will need to be strong enough against zombies but also enemy army forces and manage your healh all along your mission. What ???? Only one life ??? Yes soldier, this mission is for the heros the real! Don't forget it's a milsim oriented game 🙂 The first version is in French langage. You are free to translate it, or modify it if you wish. The mission can be used in scenario mode or in sandbox mode if you want to bring your own content, or play like a lone wolf. About eXtinction: exTinction uses some of my advanced stuffs that make this game fully dynamic 🙂 BME2 : manage network exchange VITEMS : manage virtual inventory and arma stuff, interract with 3d objects INTDB : manage differents DB and backup for relisient game KEYHANDLER : manage keyboard All internal modules etc. And i also used some external mods: Ryan Zombies & Demons RHS Thanks to the autors Download: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2228052658 Github: https://github.com/code34/projectx.enoch How to play: Start an Multiplayer game with a local or internet server, choose the liviona map, and projectx mission. If you like it, and want to help this project, you can evaluate it positively on steam. Do not hesitate to confirm your interest, if you want more informations.

I've been writing code to optimize runtime and immersion. Here's a quick video I did of the features. If there is interest I will continue development and steer it with feedback. MTW integration House loot etc, prior to MTW Short Looting Video

Combining elements from Escape from Tarkov, as well as just cause and GTA, this server brings ambience to a new level. Currently in development it has reached a playable point. Everything has been extensively modified, or swapped out. The current build is available on my server to play at warkin.info. I'm looking for beta testers and help with server admin.

This is a persistent campain using the Drongo RDC Module, check the mod page for more information about this mod. Note, this mission is builded to be played for 25 player on a dedicated server. Steamworkshop link : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1867605255 Main features and rules Drongo RDC is designed to make dynamic campain progression, so its depend if the player complete or fail the mission on each session, so here a quick description on how the mission work. Ticket management There is 40 ticket for the whole team of player, 1 death = 1 ticket lost, 0 Ticket = mission fail. To avoid any exploit every immobilised player cannot leave the session, he must die or be revived. Custom HQ The player can get all the vehicle faction at base, recruit AI, HALO Jump and fast travel between the FOB and MHQ. AI Management The mission is playable alone (or for low amount of player), so each player can recruit 10 AI max/group at the HQ or FOB. Each AI cost 1 Ticket, they can be dismissed and get back the ticket, they also benefit from the same insta death protection, so they can be revived or revive any player. F.O.B The player side got 3 F.O.B box where the player can recruit AI, rearm, build fortification and get soft vehicle or static weapon. The FOB system is totaly persistent, the box and all the construction made by the player are saved between server restart or new generated mission. Secondary features and credit Unique Class Features -Any squadleader class is able to call C.A.S, Air transport, Ammodrop. -Engineer is able to build sandbag wall, woodplank and pole, so they build nice homemade bunker everywhere on the map. (they must have a toolkit in bag) Dynamic Ai Patrol (AI Spawn Script Pack) All vehicle and soldier type. (enemy and friendly) Dynamic AI Artillery (RYD_FFE Script) AI can handle any artillery piece against enemy player or AI. (RYD_FFE Script) Logistic (by R3F team) -Every object builded at the F.O.B can be moved or loaded in vehicle. -Advanced sling loading is used by default in the mission. Client features -Dynamic View Distance (by TAW) -Mag Repack (by Outlaw) Note on client and server performance I spend some time on optimisation client and server side, so the mission is highly optimised and offer a good framerate for client/server and lag free, more detail below : -Dynamic sim is used on each vehicle spawned at base. -Configured GF Cleaning script, so the player vehicle are not deleted (no bad surprise) -ZBE AI cache Script is used. -Max view distance is 3500m. -Every secondary object like vegetation, box, wreck, trashbin are hidden in town to offer the best framerate client side. Mod compatibility -Any sound or movement mod is recommended. -The mission should be compatible with ACE and TFAR. -The new AI mod LAMBS.danger should be compatible. !!!do not use this AI mod!!! -VCOM AI and TCL will breack the mission so do not use it. (I didn't try with ASR AI)

Welcome to Vandeanson's Basebuilding! In this thread I will cover everything about my WIP basebuilding mod. V0. 2: feature showcase and introduction V0. 3 - I have re-written the blueprint creation function. It is now easy for users to add new custom blueprints or delete default blueprints when creating a mission. - added an option to rotate the object (the object that is being built) - added an option to get object closer or further away (max distance can be limited, currently at 5m) - GRAD persistency enabled for placed stuff (tested in client hosted and dedicated) - placed objects can be destroyed, you get back scrap materials (which can be refined into other materials again later) - moving an object will save its new position via GRAD - added a few new materials - added place-able light source with on / off switch. I plan to add a feature that requires a generator connected. See light showcase: next steps: - release updated showcase video - add more blueprints - add GRAD setting to save collected material per player - "Move" and "deconstruct" addactions to be saved via GRAD - adding possibilities to destroy other players placed objects - adding blueprint spawners, so players can collect and learn new blueprints - material traders - loot system for all materials that may be found (currently wood, stone and sand can be farmed) Looking forward to receive any input, suggestion or ideas from the community. A playable mission demo will follow shortly. Cheers VD 

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.

I've revamped and updated Dissension with many fixes, so this amazing game-mode actually works and is optimized. I've got a server hosting it at 192.99.136.134:2303. I'm looking for help running the server if anyone is interested. The game mode is super fun and the combat feels like a good SP mission. Progress is persistent for character levels and the island campaign.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1737925026 -A scenario built on Drongo’s Area of Operations- 2035 –Tensions are rising between NATO and CSAT. CSAT’s allies, the AAF, occupy the strategic island nation of Malden. A local CIA funded and trained group known as the FIA has been tasked with conducting an insurgency in Malden to weaken the AAF military capability, erode CSAT’s confidence in the AAF and strengthen the case for NATO peacekeeping intervention in Malden. This mission has been built around Drongo’s Area of Operations, a mod which provides a highly customisable dynamic campaign system. Area of Operations generates missions which need to be achieved in order to accumulate victory points to win the campaign. Area of Operations is easy to use and allows anyone with little experience with the Eden Editor to create engaging and fun campaigns. My intention with this scenario is to demonstrate some of the possibilities of Drongo’s mod and give a true sandbox experience where the player has lots of freedom in how they want to play. Drongo is actively working on Area of Operations and I will update this scenario with new releases of AO. Check out Drongos other mods too at https://steamcommunity.com/id/DrongoMods/myworkshopfiles/ and https://www.patreon.com/DrongoMods. Features: Dynamic campaign generated by Drongo’s Area of Operations. 100 points are required to win this campaign. Successfully completing a mission earns you 10 points. Killing an enemy unit earns you 0.5 points. You also have 100 political will points. Failing a mission costs 10 political will points and killing a civilian costs 3 points. Upon reaching 0 political will points the campaign will be a failure. Asymmetric warfare against a superior enemy force. Each task will need to be planned thoroughly with the means of achieving it limited by your imagination. Unit switch – upon death switch to a surviving group member and continue the fight from there. Regular saving is recommended though. Undercover – blend in as a civilian or infiltrate by posing as an enemy soldier. Vehicle-Borne Improvised Explosive Device (VBIED) – A truck bomb is available at the FIA base with the detonator triggered via radio. When destroyed the truck will respawn at base after 10 minutes. Combine this truck with undercover to complete objects and eliminate enemy patrols but be careful of collateral damage. Unit recruitment. Vehicle spawner BI Arsenal – All equipment available so how you play is up to you. Lead a ragtag squad of ill-equipped rebels, a well-armed militia using the latest in CTRG equipment, disguise yourself as a civilian and discreetly plant bombs or use the bomb truck to cause maximum carnage. Optional objectives to capture enemy assets including a helicopter, a jet and tanks (extremely difficult). Future plans: A separate COOP version of this scenario. In extensive SP playtesting I found that the scenario was initially way too difficult due to the incompetence of the friendly AI so I have tweaked it to help offset this disadvantage which includes all items being available through the virtual arsenal and several “captured” AAF vehicles to start with. The COOP version will require players to scavenge for and capture AAF assets (if they want more than the standard FIA assets) and will be generally harder in order to meet the capabilities of a group of human players. An optional objective to assault and capture the USS Freedom thereby enabling cruise missile fire support. Required Addons: Community Base Addons (Armaholic / Steam Workshop) Spyder Addons (Armaholic / Steam Workshop) Drongo’s Area of Operations (Steam Workshop) Recommended Addons: VCOM AI (Armaholic / Steam Workshop) Drongo’s Command Enhancement (Armaholic / Steam Workshop) Drongo’s Air Operations (Armaholic / Steam Workshop) Credits Drongo for the Area of Operations mod upon which this scenario is built. https://www.patreon.com/DrongoMods https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1712007238 SpyderBlack723 for Spyder Addons https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=579263829 Incontinentia for Incon Undercover https://forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/202256-release-incon-undercover-a-comprehensive-undercover-incognito-simulation/ Licence Arma Public License No Derivatives (APL-ND) https://www.bohemia.net/community/licenses/arma-public-license-nd FEEDBACK IS STRONGLY ENCOURAGED.

Hello ARMA community, today I release my next RAVAGE mission. Have fun! Short overview: Title: RAVAGE MORGENTHAU PLAN SCHWEMLITZ Version: 1.0 Author: tourist Type: SP/COOP 1-5 Roleplaying Game Respawn: Base/Markers Game Version: created and playtested in SP and MP Dedicated Server on 1.84 Stable Language: English or German 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 rural area of Schwemlitz County. Combined RAVAGE with HEROS Survive for added level of immersion and gameplay value: HEROS offers a temperature system, sawing wood, trading goods, quest items... Generally speaking the HEROS items work with double-clicking them in your inventory like the RAVAGE items do. Some of them can be merged via action menu; most important for this mission: water purification pills+water container of any size=purified water Mission puts you in an alternative timeline where after WW2 the Morgenthau Plan has been enforced upon Germany. Google it, and google the novel "Morbus Kitahara" by author Ransmayer as well. THIS is a setting where a Sandbox Survival game can shine! The map is Schwemlitz cuz it's quite rural - and looks like really German coutryside, not polish or ukrainian like the IFA3 maps. There will be a few „modern“ items in loot and purchase – but the gunplay is deliberately limited to the WW2 tech. Play alone or as a small band of brothers in arms, all of you German soldiers returning from the time in a Soviet POW camp with nothing but the rags on your body. You have to fight for your life against Bandits and US Soldiers who roam Germany. The former to fulfill their needs by whatever means necessary, the latter in search of these Bandits and with the task to eliminate all "Rebel/Werewolf" units as well (represented by the armed BLUFOR RAVAGE Survivors who fight the Bandits) because NO German man is allowed to have guns! EVER! AGAIN!!! Choose to play it as sandbox until you die. Or you could try to do the quests: find enough Dollars to bribe an Allied Forces Official to give you a Passport for, say, France or USA. Or steal blank forms out of his safe and then forge yourself a passport. Or maybe search for one of those - nowadays privileged - former victims of Nazi crimes who might have such passport - and kill him for it! Really? Who would play a person like this? I don't know, but ARMA is about freedom. So ofc it's also a possibility to play as an absolutely ruthless "Inglorious German Bastard"... Civilians, farm animals and wild boars present and some loot to be found in settlements, but VERY FEW vehicles - after all, the Morgenthau Plan was about to crush Germany's economy and society for good. Weapons? Ammo? Hmm, try to pull off a Silent Takedown Attack on a Bandit or sneak into an US ARMY post and steal some hardware. You might try to scrape the money together to buy a combat knife from the stationary trader/questgiver, but he will NOT have guns in stock!!! Also there is rumors about a couple of US supply airplanes that have crashed in the Schwemlitz region - maybe the Russians have found a few Nazi super weapons to bring down airplanes with soundwaves or magnetism? But dontcha think these crashsites were freebies: the US Rangers are heading out to each of the crashsites FAST; and if they see you there, they consider it trespassing and shoot you. Wait, what? why don't they shoot you anyways? Because of INCON INCOGNITO!!! I've tailored this script to my mission with great detail so you can wear Frith's Ruin clothes or CIV clothes from IFA3 & RDS & BIS to pass for a civilian as long as you keep any weapons concealed and don't come too close to the soldiers. Also the bandits will leave you and the "real" CIVS alone, making it possible to sneak up on them and do the silent takedown if they see through your disguise too late. The script options I've tried to make OPFOR shoot ALL CIVS don't work fully yet. They do just aim at the CIVS - kinde like extortion or "Your Money or your Life“ style. Stationary trader and questgiver in a shop opposite of the Weste Train Station where you start. Go there at least once to receive the main quest and it's subquests! (Keep the book he gives to you in your inventory) Further enhanced by usage of George Floros immersive script suite tailored for RAVAGE: GF Crashsites creates random airplane crashsites with Recovery Recon Teams hurrying towards them make every playthrough different even in SP GF Drop Loot lets all killed people drop money or other items you might sell to the trader. Only two start and respawn locations (Weste Station as start and additionally a hidden camp in the woods for respawn) in MP for all players – go find yourself some old comrades, Feldwebel! 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 or at two places in the mission via Spyder Addons Recruiting mechanics... 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/ways & means to achieve your goals (still WIP) I'm happy to announce that this mission offers a persistent task with several sub-tasks. I achieved this by utilizing the convenient fact that ALiVE saves a player's or a container's inventory. Subtasks are either repeating tasks for the stationary trader to help you earn some money or different ways to achieve your overall goal of obtaining a passport that allows you to leave the mission area and thus „win“ the mission. Loot in props and furniture is very scarce and weapons and ammo even more so. Go hunt a few boars or other animals, or trade non-edible loot for food. 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. ZOD unarmed/silent takedown Script used to give all players the ability to defend themselves with their bare hands at game start and/or support a covert gameplay later on. After all, you are former WW2 soldiers who have fought on the Eastern Front and were then imprisoned in a Stalinist GULAG. You have learned all there is to learn about unarmed and melee fighting! This script allows me to actually let you play through the grim experience of coming to a shootout wielding not even a knife (if you load KA MELEE, you can buy a combat knife from the trader, though...), but just a pair of empty hands! Now go and create some vids of your ragged 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! HINT: Germans would most likely yell „YAAAAH!“ or „HURRRAAA!“ if it goes into real primal/trench fighting. More sophisticated battle cries depend on the unit: „Horrido – Joho!“ for most infantrymen, „Panzergrenadiere – Dran! Drauf! Drüber!“ for mechanized infantry, „Panzer – Hurra!“ for tank troops. 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 general coding tips, hints to useful scripts and general ideas on mission balance and our broad exchange on the different approaches to achieve a high realism level in the ARMAVERSE cosmic10R for his RAVAGE templates, for his great Escape!

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

Hello, everyone. I'm making Ravage mission, few players asked for persistent world discovery state and I'm struggling with making that. Basic idea was to store activated trigger names in server's profileNamespace and load this list upon restart and simply activate triggers again. Problem is OR doesn't seems to work in Condition field... or maybe I'm just completely wrong and it can't be done like this. Any advice appreciated.

Hello all! Here is a pure UNSUNG Echo update liberation mod on the map Da Krong! This is literally just a UNSUNG mod mission that you can load up in either the editor or your public/private server to enjoy. Again please let me know if there are any issues that need to be addressed. *ADVISE: This does not include ACE at all. If you would like to variations with ACE Enabled, I will upload copies of the missions to the public* Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you all. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1195582852

Hey guys, in the past 3 months I developed a new gamemode. Attrition is a capture the zone gamemode for Arma 3 where three teams try to get the majority of the island to win. The goal of Attrition is to capture more than 90% of the areas on the island. Capturing To capture a city, your team just needs to be the majority in the city. Your team gets resources for every city it captured. If you have a whole area, you get a multiplier. Some cities have item-/vehicleshops, which can only be accessed you captured it. Upgrading To upgrade a base, you have to start a vote. The whole team now gets a dialog, weather they agree or disagree. If your vote gets more than 60% yes, the base slowly starts to change to the upgrade. Some cities can be upgraded too if you have captured them. AI Missions To get money, you can sell loot from AI Missions. This is a perfect way to get weapons, vehicles and ammo. AI Missions are spawning random on the island. They are marked on the map as a violett exclamation mark. If there is no unit left, then exclamation will mark disapper. The gamemode is a bit unbalanced at the moment and there are plenty of things I want to add. It would be cool if I could find some people for playtesting.

Got a question I can't seem to find much on, however I've seen missions that do this... I've been trying to run a server for me and my friends to play when we hop on ArmA, right now I'm using RHS and ALiVE to do some guerrilla style missions, I've been using TADST's "local dedicated" server tool, I've enabled the autoInit "persistence" between player joins, but this obviously has it's downsides. - I'm running on my desktop, if I want to restart my PC, I have to close the server (duh) - I can't do an actual dedicated server, I don't want to pay for one or build a server box, so ALiVE's persistence is out of the question, I tried it's "single player save" but it is too much and crashes So this might be a dumb question, but is there a way I can run this server, and have the server save when I exit, then start back up when I re-join with my friends? Basically the same as ALiVE, but save the data local to my PC. Thanks, Envak
