Making Arma 3 missions in the editor is sometimes more fun than playing the missions ngl
So true! 🤣
Ye but the ai is a pain in the ass😂
Hell yeah but also frustrating asf at times😭. Especially with scripting
I haven't played Arma in years but I have 800hrs and I'm pretty sure 750 of them were in the editor.
ye I love it. I love building good looking missions. with around 100 mods😂@@EazyE11
I love when I set up ambushes, I still get scared 🤣 knowing I did it
Mee too.
😂😂😂
PTSD but fun lol
i just use Pressure IED's in a convoy and first vehicle goes boom, then hell begins.
Simple plans do have less room for error. Which applies to mission making too. Ill have to take a look at that method. Might consider doing a longer tutorial based on this short but go into more depth and showcase more ideas
@@TacticalWestOfficial there is a “false” way to simulate the pressure plate part of it very reliably by specifically entering a list of units that will satisfy the present condition of the trigger. So for example let’s say you have a convoy with dismounted infantry and only want a vehicle to be able to trigger the IED, you could just give all your vehicular units a name like “a1”, “a2”, “a3” and use the *thisList* command to activate the trigger when any or all of those units enter the trigger. I forget the exact way to write it bc it’s been a while but there’s def info on google. I think you can also just sync units as the trigger owner of the IED trigger and do it that way without any scripts at all. Hope that helps add options for u without over complicating
Thanks for the info
@YeaaIJusShiddedOnEm alternatively you could just use a condition which checks if a vehicle is in the trigger zone, that way it will always work for any situation, without needing to use endless variable names
Also disable AI’s mine detection, because Arma AIs are capable of seeing landmine and IEDs
Thanks for the info
How do I do that?
how do you disable ai mine detection?
Should be a script for it that can be in the init or something along those lines, I'll have a geeze for ya in half an hour.
@@TacticalWestOfficialHave you gotten it yet?

Is this mod where those humvees came from? Id like to get those. Also, can one get a mod to replace the whipeout with the older, more realistic A10 skin?
@@joeferris5086 Why Hellos there, I am using the RHS Mods for the Humvees soldiers and basically everything most of the current/2000s Military environment and assets . it does also include a current A10 straight out of Afghanistan. :) hope this helped
@@TacticalWestOfficial thx!
@@TacticalWestOfficial what map are you using?
@@samb4678 Takistan Mountains I think
I love the eden editor. So many possibilities to set up great scenarios.
indeed. indeed.
I also love how I can set enemies randomly around the map in towns and stuff, then make a base for my team. Then build scenarios with that as the base, so when I'm traveling to objectives I also have to worry about going through towns filled with enemy troops
I spawned 9000 chickens and tried to run them over, and my game moves 1 fps every few minutes
Arma really changed my perception for war games, it’s so realistic to the point that if I play battlefield I will get angry over how fragile your weapon is compared to real life.
This is the single best way to start learning the Arma 3 editor. Uses variables triggers and syncing plus motivates the hell out of you when you make something cool like this happen for the first time. It's exactly how I got started before 3Den was even a thing
Enjoy the tutorial
I have I problem, if the a leading car cant drive anymore all the others behind it wont overtake that car to head forwards.
Ill say it again , thank you to gamers like this with hints and tips
Thanks man, really appreciate the kind words!
❤️🔥 not too many put out tutorials nowadays we need folk like you brother we all appreciate your work very very much personally I’m a professional but I remember when I used to be watching these vids years back which even then was fairly dated out much love to you my friend.
I’m relatively new to arma 3 and am still a long ways from being good at the Eden editor and yeah, there’s really not enough tutorials getting into the basic stuff and how to use em.
Glad to see that I am not the only one who still uses MCC Sandbox! I saw it in your modules selection. 🎉
Yeah it's so great to have, makes it so easy to set up a quick mission for all of the guys
"PTSD inducing"
I know this is 6months old but thank you. I just started learning Zeus and I'm setting up a star wars scenario. This is perfect
Thank you so much. But now I am intrigued to how an IED is going to work in a star wars situation. As always glad to be able to help.
@@TacticalWestOfficial The way I'm doing it is my friends are playing the republic and I'll be using Mandalorians as an insurgent group. I'm planning on them transporting supplies and once that goes off there will be a group of mandos in a nearby position waiting for them
This Iraq road trip simulator looks lit ngl
🤣🤣
brooooo yt recommended me this short right after I watched a video about the IRA 😭
Eden editor is the best. I learned to fly v44 in a week and was able to train myself to pilot and fire the cannons with accuracy
Way to go!
Thanks man very helpful 🙏🔥🔥
Glad it could help.
Just got the game after I finally finished setting my pc up and I can’t wait to mess around with this thing and see what kinds of things I can create to make videos for my channel
Congratulations Mate 🎉 Welcome to Arma!
@@TacticalWestOfficial thanks man😁😁
Thanks 🙏🏻
Awesome!
That's pretty cool
I have a hundred half finished missions. I wish my friends still played :(
yeah I hate it when that happens.
noice one
Thank you. :)
Hey! Can you do a video on how to code an actual ambush, like the enemy ai waiting for the convoy to pass and not firing until then, and when it passes it starts firing, etc?
Already have, here's a link to the video: th-cam.com/video/0x-Ku_SBzoM/w-d-xo.html
:)
@@TacticalWestOfficial Thank you!
All good.
Imagine that I only played Arma to script my own missions and play and test different scenarios
Don't we all.

LINK: th-cam.com/video/0x-Ku_SBzoM/w-d-xo.html
I feel like Ignis Corps could use a few of these. Especially since they love their high attrition Arma 3 games against various races of monsters.
I also know for a fact... IEDs are a fast way to teach players to space their dang convoys out; because the number of ops people run where they blow up 3 or more vehicles because they tail gate each other is ridiculous.
That is so true 🤣
Arma reforger needs this
Indeed. Arma 4 will have an 3den editor equivalent though.
@TacticalWestOfficial do you know if that will be on xbox, because I know that arma 4 is coming to xbox
@@SUP3R2069 Probably not. It is quite a poweful tool and I dont think Xbox could handle it very well with keybinds and code etc.
nice
more tutorial for Arma 3 plz..
along with script lines
Alrighty Mate, Will do. Anything in particular?
No mate.. just want to know how the Eden things works..
already completed the campaigns several time.. it's time to do some Eden things, and I found your video useful.
so make some detail video of Eden tutorial and mission making..
Much thanks.
Also explain the Script line things, I do suck in it..😅
@@indrsextreme8371 Will do.
bro please post your video settings man, love your videos ❤
Aww thanks, will do.
Kindness not saying you get to know when you say Man
Ptsd inducing...My this world is sooooo strange
Wow
Can you please do a video on fps. I have pretty good PC and Im running no mods with low settings and as soon as I spawn a few enemys in the editor I go down from 120 FPS to 30 FPS
Sadly I don't have much experience with performance in Arma, it is a very CPU Intensive game, and doesn't really care much about what gpu you have. If by a few enemies you mean like 10-50, there's definitely something wrong, but each enemy ai uses your CPU, and squad leaders use more CPU than squad members as they need to decide things. There a plenty of golden videos out there regarding performance in Arma and how to optimise, definitely suggest giving them a watch.
Tactical Garrys Mod.
Check
Haha, your not wrong 😂
Love making ambush and stealth missions but making the AI behave is a pain 😭
Damn
If you want to go more indepth, new tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/0x-Ku_SBzoM/w-d-xo.html
What were the vehicles used in this?
RHS:USAF vehicles
@@TacticalWestOfficial Thanks.
@@LeoKBass No problem :)
How do I put down the IED?
Its in props (Yellow tab).
Ah cheers mate
idk if you still respond but hopefully you do, is the whole convoy/IED thing a mod, because I cant find it anywhere in the editor
Yes, the convoy module is a mod: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801179774
is there any way to randomize this so it plants IEDs randomly on roads?
Not that I know of, you'd need to get into scripting for that.
What mod is the convoy icon from?, thanks great video
Should be in the pinned comment mate. 🙂
What mods are you using for all of this? Like the vehicles and models
RHS:USAF (Red Hammer Studios) is what I used.
RHS:USAF (Red Hammer Studios) is what I used.
@@TacticalWestOfficial Okay, thanks!
How the hell is your arms performance so good in-game? 7800XT here, but only 30 FPS 😂
What's your CPU? Arma 3 is a very CPU intensive game
@@TacticalWestOfficial Ryzen 7 5700x
That's interesting, are you getting 30fps with just a couple things placed in the Eden editor?
@@TacticalWestOfficial Negative. Just very poor performance whenever I load up the Antistasi mod with a couple a friends
Anyone know why the convoy system isn’t showing up in my editor?
its a mod
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801179774
Hay could you make a vid on how to set up a Zeus server from Eden?
Sure, In short form I assume?
th-cam.com/users/shortsgU17ncLG2tg Here you go mate. :)
This way is Very unreal. It's not simulating the enemy spotter and detonation at all. It's working like a game not like a simulator. You can do much better and you can make the enemy AI to set the explosives and wait as spotter.
You certainly could, however showing how to do all that in a 60 second short, not so easy.
@@TacticalWestOfficial good point. I'm a mission maker not a TH-cam content creator XD
I found out that it creates a noticeable freeze when it blows up. Mods maybe?
Weird, doesn't happen for me.
@@TacticalWestOfficial I'm sure its nothing to do with the TRUCK loads of mods I run. Don't sweat it man this was a cool help.
what you can edit in arma? damn i want to play this
its an amazing video game, on sale you can get it for 11 bucks aud
Are you able to do that for the steam deck version?
I'm not sure.
what kind of mod. u using firefight sounds amazing to me?
JSRS Soundmod, Enhanced Sounscape, and DynaSound 2
0:01
I understand this was months ago and I'm late to the party, although may I ask, what map is shown in the video?
CUP Terrains, Takistan Mountains
Thank you.
Name is mod vehicules
?
@@TacticalWestOfficial "I don't know much English, I speak Spanish, but I would like to know the names of the mods you use."
RHS, ACE, CUP Terrains etc
What mod did you use to get the Humvees?
RHS:USAF
What is the map name? How do you get the humvees and modern weapons, not futuristic? Just got Arma 3 for the middle eastern conflict, but cant find anything related to the middle east!
There are mods. RHS:USAF, RHS:AFRF, cup, lythium etc
Can you make AI simulations in Arma 3?
I am not sure what exactly you mean.
If you can provide more detail I might be able to help.
@@TacticalWestOfficial like make AI fight each other
Yup that is possible.
what a pain in the ass
Hopefully your painful buttocks stops paining.
It might help if you give a move command upon trigger to opfor so that way you're just not setting off an ied and that's the game. Because that's kinda boring.
Indeed here is my full tutorial on adding opfor troops, and technicals into the ambush: th-cam.com/video/0x-Ku_SBzoM/w-d-xo.html
I dont have the "convoy" option in effects, what should i do?
It's a mod, check the comments for the link to it
Which mods are you using?
RHS Mods, CUP Maps and the better convoy mod: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801179774
Thank you so much for the link bro and have fun
my ai keep driving around the IED - any way to stop that?
Are you using the convoy module from the convoy mod? (linked in pinned comment) and have you set the group behaviours to safe?
Is Arma 3 only on PC
Yeah mate. PC only. Anything else would turn into an IED trying to run complex missions with mods.
what mods have you used?
RHS and ACE
@@TacticalWestOfficial ah
So it doesn’t cause any damage to the vehicle
Full in depth tutorial video out now:

@@TacticalWestOfficial thanks
My my convoy won’t drive. What do I do?
Did you group all of the vehicles separately?
To have “Convoy” do you need a mod? I don't have the option
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801179774
I did what you said but the vehicles didn't move why?
Make sure that all of the vehicles and their occupants are in seperate groups to other vehicles, also give it a moment, it may take a minute for the ai to start driving, if that fails I have a full tutorial on my channel that goes a little more in depth.
How to rotate objects?
Shift left click
what map is this?
Takistani mountains if I remember correctly.
thanks!@@TacticalWestOfficial
Counter game play it now those staying counter gthpp intelligence use counters intelligence use diligent kindness in army not just man when they say you mean boy
My humvees aren’t moving I did all of the steps what do I do?
Give the AI a moment, they can be kind of slow to do things, also ensure that each humvees crew is it's own group, you don't want to split a large group into multiple vehicles or it can break things quite quickly.
I dont know if its a mod but i dont see convoy in systems at all.
Its a mod, better convoy mod.
Where did you get the vehicles?
RHS:USAF mod. Adds assets from around the 2000s
@TacticalWestOfficial Thank you so much
Convoy module ? Link?

@@TacticalWestOfficial would it be client only? Or Would thr Server im Hosting the op on need to download it as well?
I honestly don't know.
where did you get that IED ?
It's in the empty tab. I show where it is in the video. (It's part of the base game, if not then it's part of ace)
@@TacticalWestOfficial thanks, i found Ig
@@TacticalWestOfficial but i don't have that convoy effect, but really thank you
@@rohlikcz2095 it's a mod. I've linked the url to the workshop page in numerous comments.
Dude, don't you know how to remove the colored arrows behind each car in the convoy?@@TacticalWestOfficial
Convoy not in effects?
It's a mod, check the description and/or pinned comment. Hope this helps 🙂
for some reason mine does not do damage to vehicles
I am working on another Arma 3 tutorial video, it should do damage to the vehicle, but if it doesn't you can spawn explosions on the vehicle using script, it will be covered in Monday's video.
@@TacticalWestOfficial ok thank you
what mod is the IED
Inbuilt in the game Im pretty sure
@@TacticalWestOfficialAh Ok Thank You
How to set darict humvee vehicles
I don't understand what darict is?
Cant find the convoy thingy
It is a mod: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2801179774
Enjoy!
Why will my convoy not drive?
Maybe they are placed too close or far apart. Also make sure each vehicle is a seperate group.
@@TacticalWestOfficialtried moving them apart and ungrouping them, didn’t work
You do need to give them some time to begin driving, play around with the seperation settings in the module, also ensure that the vehicles are synced to the module from head of the convoy to the tail, also try using a different vehicle, it may be incompatible with the module somehow, a lot of mission making is trial and error. Hope this helps.
What map is this?
Taskistani Mountains
How do I place the ied in game
you mean like zues?
how you get all units ?

Okay Thank you Very much !
By the way do you have a list of all your mods? I'd love to have them, they look interesting!
Alright mod list on it's way!
Or just put down a pressure plate ied and don't do all that's extra crap.
If you watch the full video I go into more detail on adding dhsk tekkies that open up after the explosion etc
can anyone help me? my convoy does not go when i play the scenario
have you given them all waypoints?

Game name?!
Arma 3
I need help i dont jave the option to convoy
It's a mod, check the pinned comment
The pinned comment does not tell me@@TacticalWestOfficial
Give me the code please
Code is in the video, very simple to copy.
uhh is this arma 3 zeus since zeus is a dlc
Nope, this is all in the mission editor, oh and zues is a free dlc included with the game anyway.
@@TacticalWestOfficial oh thank you!
@@TacticalWestOfficial i got the game when it was on sale for 9 bucks and now i dont have any dlcs 😭
@@agentgamingchannel. Thats fine brother, endless mods to keep you entertained! if you plan on playing king of the hill game mode, I would suggest at the very least: Helicopters (Most of the time you get to the AO in a helicopter dlc Helicopter called the Pawnee) If you like sniping and want to snipe in koth i would also suggest marksmen, Apex is pretty good and has some OP weapons. but if your planning on making milsim missions and not palying mainstream multiplayer. no dlc is fine. I would suggest RHS mods, they add the U.S, RGF (Russian ground forces) etc, they add them based in the current era and not in the future. and are completely free! Hope this helped!
@@TacticalWestOfficial yeah i got the mods and they’re fire 🔥
At least show mods you are using
At least check the other comments first.
@@TacticalWestOfficial i did?
