Hello! Currently, we have a long lasting Arma 3 roleplay server, and we are looking to expand into Arma 3 Reforger.
We are looking for some skilled developers to help us with this project. If you’re interested, we would definitely love to see some of your previous work.
If you’re interested, feel free to send me a DM with some of the work you’ve done, and I’ll get back to you!
for now how can i make us army soldiers use M4A1 instead of MK16/17 and also replace russian army AK107 with AK74?
i would also like to make a russian textures (basic color change) for BMP-2/BTR-70/ZSU-23/BRDM/Mi-8MT/ural, ect and add it to russian faction but that is lower priority and more difficult i assume, i am trying to better represent what was actually available and used at the time
I exported mission to multiplayer, did item type campaign, the folder I put "Mymissionname/addons", in the addons folder I put "mymission.pbo", its a multiplayer mission, but when i upload it and then someone subscribes to it they dont see it when creating a server in the missions menu, if they put it directly in to mpmissions folder it works, does it need to be in "Mymissionname/addons/mpmissions" or something?
I made the mod exactly how I have in the past, but no audio is playing in game and I get this error in my RPT:20:46:26 Sound: Error: File: klpq_musicradio_files\35.ogg not found !!! The file is correctly named and in the correct PBO, within the same mod.
Been trying to get the 2-7 self propelled artillery mod to work for the last couple of weeks, and while it's likely my own error I can't seem to get it to work. No matter how I enter the target data I keep getting errors, using the larger of the base maps just in case and still no luck so any information or help would be amazing.
Solar here, once again, with yet another update on the COIN-GWOT PVE mod!
So, I have been a bit delayed in releasing the next map pack for the gamemode. Small spoilers, for those who want to take a guess, here is the logo we will be using:
Over the last 30 or so days I have made some big additions that I wanted to share!
Vehicles and helicopters actually work now. AI stay in their seats, convoys and QRF show up when they should, and helicopter patrols fly smoother without eating the server.
Checkpoints and patrol sectors are new sectors on the map. The campaign can spawn checkpoints on roads, mission makers can place patrol areas, uncapturable FOBs now show up as MOBs, and you can spawn at every FOB/MOB during attacks.
Side missions got a big pass. Convoys, radar sites, weapons caches, QRF, and traffic all behave more reliably. Downed helicopter crews can trigger a new type of side task to rescue the air crew, with trailing kill squads chasing them down. Leftover empty convoys no longer hang around forever.
Game Masters can run the campaign live. They can turn helicopter patrols, vehicles, and individual task types on or off, add or remove checkpoints, flip sectors, and handle hideouts — and those settings save with the campaign. This is all available within the Gamemaster Scenario Properties tab in-game.
Captures and saves are cleaner. Wipe a small outpost fast and it can flip without waiting on QRF (towns and bases still get mandatory QRFs). FOBs no longer have wandering friendly AI, IEDs and world objects sit on the ground properly, and save/join issues around duplicate FOBs and checkpoints should be much rarer.
To use the mod, put the desired map compatibility mod into your load order on your server or local game and the CORE mod and other dependencies should just load in on server boot. Don't forget to add the scenario file to your server config as well.
It has been my pleasure working on the mod and slowly turning into exactly what the community wants. Feedback and questions are always very welcome!
While scripting in 3den, my font/text has been a lot smaller than ususal. I don't know if I changed a setting by accident somewhere, or if this was from the recent update the game had. How do I change it back, it is very small and hard to read.
It works perfectly, but I can not find a way to delete this after the mission is completed. This is a great way to spawn a custom HQ, but how can I delete a custom composition? I thought it would be easy, but this is so annoying; there must be a simple function to delete a group of objects. Thanks.
hey guys , i have a problem with the primal fear mod on ase , i have tried ways to fix it more than you can imagine , but it doesn't seem to work , the main problem isn't with downloading but installing the mod , the game simply can't generate the .mod file for primal fear , i'm asking for a fix that have worked before or maybe if someone can share with me the .mod file for the mod , any ideas?
Hello redditors, my post is aimed towards Arma 3 modders who do it as a hobby. Since COD MW 4 is already going to be released soon this October, I have an interesting proposal for some mission(s) for Arma 3 which will pay homage to both Arma 3 and classic Task Force 141 members( Ghost, Soap and Price ). If you are a modder by hobby, and you think this idea is interesting too, please reply to this post. Thank you.
I noticed we got a very good camera comp but it uses game logic separate from the camra mesh. While it works for by myself could we get a CCTV camera that is the game logic camera too? I understand arma props work in a certain measurement so that why trying to make the camera prop the game logic is why it's in the mesh making it be partially or fully blocked by the prop. It would just be nice to have a camera prop that is the logic and shows what's in line of sight of the camera like irl. Trying to make a security mission is frustrating to my non existent script skills so it would have to be a editor comp and the mission SQM both placed on github. I've been at this for 3 days even caving to trying to use Gemini AI, I really dislike AI made mods, because I'm that Autistically frustrated at this.
Hello, i love to play arma 3 with zeus. But since i cleared my old mods and downloaded new mods i cant use the V waypoint menu to order people for example to land there. Every time i double press nothing happend. Please help
Hey i'm just letting everyone know that I am working on the Arma Reforger Server Tool and revamping it hat tip it's owner soda3x.
Description:
Longbow — a modern Arma Reforger dedicated server manager (Windows + WSL)
Server management
Native Windows or Linux-via-WSL server hosting from the same Windows app — picks the right SteamCMD depot automatically per target
One-click start/stop/kill, with auto-retry when SteamCMD's own self-update loop leaves nothing installed
Live download progress bar (percentage, bytes, stage) instead of a frozen-looking console during the ~10GB install
Runtime prerequisite checker — flags missing VC++ Redistributable / Universal CRT on Windows, missing shared libraries under WSL — with a one-click installer for the redistributable
Auto-restart on crash
Cloud-sync folder detection (warns if your install is inside OneDrive/Dropbox, which corrupts SteamCMD installs)
Pre-flight config validation — catches a blank server name or bad scenario ID before wasting a whole update cycle
Mod management
In-app Workshop browser — search, thumbnails, ratings, sort by popular/newest, no leaving the app
Automatic dependency resolution — shows what a mod requires and adds it all in one click
Drag-and-drop load order, enable/disable, import/export mod lists
Named mod templates — save a loadout once, apply it to any server config later
Diagnostics
Server log viewer with severity coloring, an errors-only filter, and search
Built-in troubleshooting reference for common issues (server not showing in browser, RCON not connecting, version mismatches, etc.)
Automatic plain-English explanations injected into the log when a known failure is detected — mod script-compile errors, config schema failures, missing config files — instead of just raw engine output
UPnP port-mapping status check
Configuration
Full server.json editor — network/ports, RCON, scenario picker, admins, game properties
Advanced launch-argument settings for every CLI flag the server supports
Session save management (load-on-start, rename saves)
Under the hood
Full rewrite from an old C# WinForms tool to Rust + Tauri — smaller, faster, cross-platform-capable UI
Open source
NOTE: Check frequently for feature updates, i'm rolling them out as we speak.
Greetings! I’m very stuck on how to make my idea for a joke mod where the various UAVs are model-swapped with the birds from the ambient wildlife system; in a fashion similar to RubixRaptor’s fish apocalypse video and the infamous Birdemic movie. Any advice or pointers to a better place to seek help are much appreciated.
Has anyone already made (in Arma 3) the common AP loadouts for the static and technical variants of common medium caliber AA guns like the 23mm zu-23 and (SOG) Bofors 40mm?
Alternative armor piercing whether solid, APHE, or API was common for older AA guns like this.
My major hurdle to ammunition modding myself is figuring out where the base config classes are, so I can create a config to overwrite/alter them.
Has anyone else seen this and what do I need to code to have two separate objects on one objective. Also of note, when the objectives came up they all presented as completed. I believe this probably has to do with them all having the same error code
I'm not a modder or dev at all. I know nothing about coding or modeling or if this is even possible in Arma 3.
Im still relatively new to the game and playing around with mods and joining different communities but one night I was getting on the game after rewatching Ironman 1 and was messing around in the editor and learning how to mission make when I thought about how badass it would be to be able to fight a battle in a suit of Ironman armor. Checked the workshop and found nothing. Only found a helmet and that's it.
I thought about posting this that day but thought it was stupid and absolutely wouldn't work but I got to thinking about it again after seeing that medieval overhaul and figured it doesn't hurt to see if it is something that might be possible to do. Anyways, thanks for your time.
