WW2 Mods

[Septic Limb]

Ok so ACE3 can be used?

I would be careful, ACE modifies ballistics and armor values so you may encounter some "special" events. When RHS came out I remember that it didn't play well with ACE until patches where made from both parties.

I've had a quick look. There are some missions out there with basic revive mechanics included. Most weapons work, US Thompson seem bugged on the shooting sounds, but the German MP44 is pretty good. Probably best to run with just the IFA modules just installed as Septic mentions.

 

[Nathangun]

I wouldn't mind giving it a go.

Guys,

I'm a tester for the latest LITE version. All I can say it works even beter then you might know right now
I'm working on some MP coop missions (like Double D did before). Once I have the first mission done I'll let you guys know and we can do some test runs.

ps: the latest LITE version is on a need to know bases FYI I can share it with those who want to help testing.

Dutch did you not just install it last week?

Dutch did you not just install it last week?

I did... But before I did I posted on the Bohemia forum that I wanted to know how to script missions. Then someone asked me if I wanted to join their test team
so one thing let to another

 

[Bootie]

Scripting is pretty easy for basic missions to be honest.

My downfall with the whole ARMA thing was the modding. I got severely hacked of with having to install something new each week so uninstalled the lot in a huff. LOL

 

[Dutch Grenadier]

I'm not going to mod. Just create missions

 

[Bootie]

I installed ARMA3 and that list of mods but it doesnt work.. throws up errors. Are you guys sure thats all I need?

 

[Dutch Grenadier]

@Bootie

Shane and all other folks that are interested,

[Dutch Grenadier]

These mods need to be installed to fully enjoy the game so far:

Once you have these mods installed
-open your Arma3 trough Steam
-you are now in your Arma3 launcher
-click on MODS
-on the top click on LOCAL MOD
-go to the place where you have unpacked all your mods
-add all mods woth the @ in front of it
-then launch the game
-it may be possible that you see some errors. Don't worry just click ok/close
-to have the sp and campaign working follow these steps (need to do them myself also) (will update this once I've done it)

I already own Iron Front the original game... does that change matters?

Yes you need to follow these steps to make the game workable in Arma3

But it is easier to just install the LITE version

 

[Nathangun]

so uninstalled the lot in a huff.

I did that once, cleared up a hell of alot of space on my hard drive.

 

[Nathangun]

I can't get PW6 to download anything, I keep getting errors.

ON another note, I saw a bucket load of missions for IF in the Steam Workshop

[Dutch Grenadier]

You don't need to download it from PW6. just download them from the links profided

 

[Dutch Grenadier]

And how do you download the missions from Steam?

 

[Dutch Grenadier]

Doesd anyone know how to convert .ifa files to .pbo files?

 

[Nathangun]

And how do you download the missions from Steam?

You just 'Subscribe' and it will automatically download when you start Arma.
