![5 Things To Do Before You Start Arma 3 in 2023 [2K]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/oC5iysW6wjQ/mqdefault.jpg)
![Complete Arma 3 Beginner’s Guide: Everything you need to know [2024]](/img/n.gif)
I spent 1500 hours in the editor alone - when I realized you can basically make your own missions and games this immidiately became my favorite game... the rest of my hours were spent playing Antistasi
What's Antistasi?
A PVE mod that allows you and some friends to do gorrilia warfare against 2/1 major factions it is so fun
@@j3stter415
Same bro since the operation flashpoint days and I had every version that came out all the way to arma3 it’s like part of the family man now add all those years with these last 2 year that I been back on arma heavy but yeah the editor
Is time consuming but fun like war room map because you might think you got it all planned out then mission goes completely south and nothing ever happens the same twice either😂
Overthrow and antistasi was 98% of my hour played
@@j3stter415A rebell mod...you fight alone or with friends a against the government and fight for freedom
I'd add a few personal tips on this:
1 - Learn to landnav and pre plan your movements, seriously, I know most situations you gonna have a GPS, and it's always good to have one, but at first, you should learn how to navigate without one, not only is a useful skill on its own, but also helps you identify better routes to follow, for instance, seen too many people simply saying "oh we're here and facing this direction, target is heading that direction" *proceeds to climb THROUGH a massive mountain, skylining and exposing themselves, basically having a giant neon sign saying "i'm here pls shoot me" * whereas when you use your map you might say, aight, so there's these 2 mountains here, we can advance through the forest in the valley then set up a position on the high ground to fall on target
2 - THE, SHOTS, COME, FROM, YOUR, BARREL, NOT, FROM, YOUR, EYES, bore offset is a thing in arma, too many people wonder why are they not hitting their targets when they can clearly see them, not realising their barrel is in front and not above the sandbag they're using as cover, additionally, too many people get pissed off cause "they hit their head twice" when in CQB cause they aimed their sights at the target's head and pulled the trigger twice, but didn't realise the backup red dot on top of their magnified main optic is quite a bit above the barrel, and they're hitting the enemy's plate carrier as a result (or their abdomen when aiming for center of mass)
3 - Learn to play without mods first, there's a lot that mods change that are not that obvious to the players and might be screwing with their gameplay big time, for instance, AI enemy spotting and accuracy depends big time on their weapon and optics (and binoculars for spotting), some weapons have a better dispersion than others, and mods mess with this a lot without the player realising, for example, if you check arma 3 forums for topic 221755, you can see massive differences between vanilla, RHS, CUP and NIArmsm for the same weapon (AKM) without optics at 100m, vanilla AI had 51% accuracy, RHS 18%, CUP 43% and NIArms 34%, other mods greatly increase AI accuracy, that also debunks the widely spread MYTH that AI is super accurate, cause it's really not at all, however do keep in mind that their info sharing capabilities IS pinpoint, so, while they take a while to spot you, once one AI INSIDE THE SAME GROUP spots you, they ALL know where you are with pinpoint accuracy till they ALL break line of sight
4 - Supression is a thing, AI that is being fired at starts trying to move to cover, but primarily, they start getting their accuracy and spotting capabilities degraded, the more volume of fire and the bigger the caliber the greater this effect becomes, so when under fire, it's always a good idea to shoot back in the general direction where shots are coming from, to at least having less chance of getting hit yourself
5 - AI will keep shooting at your last known position for a bit after losing line of sight, so if you have deployed smokescreens and are trying to run, keep in mind not to just stand and leave cause you might get caught by a stray bullet, instead prone / crouch away for a bit THEN stand up and sprint, additionally, if you were moving when AI last saw you, they will shoot at your PREDICTED position, meaning it's a good idea to alter course when breaking contact
6 - AI does NOT have 360 vision, but they can get close to it, their FOV is 120 degrees but keep in mind, especially when their status is combat, stealth or aware, that they will keep their heads on a swivel, so they do see a lot more with more focus on their front since it's the place they look at the most, however, you can probably sneak past the flank of a relaxed AI since they do not look around that much, this brings me to the next point
7 - DO LOOK AROUND YOURSELF, freelook exists for a reason, trackIR is especially OP for this, but if you don't, at the very least freelook around while you move or even in combat, it's easy to have people sneak on your flanks or lose track of your allies positions when you're locked to a front view narrow FOV, looking around all the time helps prevent this, cause, players are obviously gonna be active, but, at high skill level, AI WILL try to push your position by flanking you
8 - AI can hear you, they might not see you but if you run close to them they will spot you, also, they spot a moving target far faster than a stationary one, they spot a standing character way better than one that is crouching or prone, so, in short, mind your pace, resist the urge to run when you think it's clear cause you might end up in a trap of AI that hadn't seen you before, use combat pace and walking more often, if you do have to run in combat, sprint for short periods of time, from cover to cover, if none is available, sprint for short periods, 3-5 seconds, then hit the dirt, otherwise you're a sitting duck
9 - This one should be obvious, but mind your stamina, it's no good if you rush through a field to a known AI position if you can then not aim for crap, weapon sway becomes a real problem when you're exhausted, another reason you should control your pace, not only of individual movement but also how fast you advance over an area, make sure your stamina is refreshed before moving forward again
10 - Peek things slooooowly, quite literally one step at a time, wether it's a crest or a corner, if you don't know what's around, in the middle of a combat , don't just run around it, you might find yourself on a 3 guns v 1 situation, even if you have to advance quickly and have to compromise some security, peek in a fashion where you can see what's around before moving on, and where you can retreat back to cover should the odds be against you, slow is smooth, smooth is fast
Phenomenal tips!
Another tip regarding rangefinding in vehicles: At least in vanilla Arma there's only 1 zero per vic, so if there's 2 turrets you and the other gunner share the rangefinder. When you press "T" you essentially "steal" zeroing from the other gunner so you need to communicate to share that resource. Same goes for the commander position without a weapon, if the gunner is firing at a target and you press "T" to range something you're looking at, you just threw off the gunner's zero.
And 4000+ hours in Arma and I didn't know the Ctrl-Mousewheel to change ranging on a rifle. Always used Pg Up/Pg Dn.
Awesome tip, my friend!! I hadn't realized it stole from the commander so that is great information. Don't think I've been in that situation with another player so that's great to know! Gem knowledge right here.
TrackIR implementation is the best thing I discovered in A3. It makes so huge difference on immersion and enjoyment I cannot imagine playing without it.
TrackIR is literally LIFE altering. I can’t play any flight game without it!
@@Viper1Zero Shame VR couldn't be implemented into the system. That'd be amazing.
Which Track IR are you using Maybe hit us up with a link Too (^_^)
@@Viper1Zero What about whole video about TrackIR in Arma3? Setting up and all. Would def. like that one.
I agree, too bad it doesn't work in Arma Reforger, but trackir is an underrated BEAST for situational awareness@@Viper1Zero
How sad that 4 years have passed since my system took a shit...Now building a new one but my 3000+ hours I had are irrelevant now...watching this enlightened me on how much I have missed out on! Cannot wait to get back in to ARMA 3 and 4 to join my warrior friends again! Cheers Viper!
Excited to have ya back in the fight!!
Haven't Touched Arma 3 since Nov 2022 this video made me re-install it and going to try to convince my old squad to do the same. Thanks Viper
Great vid .... played Arma 3 for years & literally still learned from this 👏
I love and hate when you post new videos. love it because you introduce amazing mods to me, hate because i have to somehow find more room in my hard drive for mods lmao.
Keep up the great content brother.
Man...making me wanna get back into Arma. I'm very sure you don't remember me but I actually flew with you years back on Arma(I'm a friend of Walker if you remember him), kinda miss those days taking to the skies in Arma. its great to see you are still doing youtube and Arma content this many years later.
I do remember you, Jacobi! Those were good times, back when I was just starting out :) Glad you’ve followed me all this time!
@@Viper1Zero I actually did decide to go and re-download Arma 3 again after watching your video lol. Now I just gotta go figure out basically everything again.
@@SparksHardcoreMusic Welcome back to the fight!!
You two should play together again
I love how this game is still going after so many years
it has no plans to stop :D
@@gunmasterx1164 Well it probably still has at least 2 years before Arma 4 comes out, mod development and such might take a while so maybe even more though reforger is a thing so that helps
@@depsor1228 eh reforger is only a testbed for A4
@@depsor1228 it will take more time to arma 3 to die down, Arma 4 will release "naked" it will take months or years until they fully develop it, just like they did when they released arma 3
@@aceisto2268 yes I did say that lol
appreciate the video bro
Great video, mate! You are a quality act, bro!
Thank you, brother! Truly appreciate your long time support!
I love your videos, they keep me motivated with the game and creating missions to enjoy in singleplayer
Glad you enjoy, my friend!
Another way to make sure you have the right mods is by joining a server through the launcher will also download and setup relevant mods for the server. Only caveat is sometimes I've seen it not unload mods if you have them already enabled, just unload all mods -> Join server through launcher -> you should be good (most of the time).
Awesome! I never used Zeus. Good stuff to know. I play by myself in the editor. I create Assassination missions, pretending I'm a CIA agent or something. Fun stuff.
I wish youtube had 2 thumbs up so i could like it twice, great video... well put together and gives a newb a taste of what to expect, so thankyou!
Absolutely respects to you for the clear, concise and detailed information. As a "beginner" I have to say, these tips (mostly) went way over my head in complexity. Those editor, virtual arsenal, triggers, etc.. were so far out of my comfort zone as a newbie lol. But sir, you definitely get a like from me for the outstanding voice-over work and well edited and presented content.
Glad you enjoyed! I know it sounds lofty at first, but I promise it will all make sense with time. Just take each aspect of the game with patience and a willingness to learn a little and you'll be rewarded with one of the best gaming experiences ever made :)
I have 2500 hours in Arma 3.
I have played less than 10 hours of multiplayer/single player campaign.
Almost all of that time has been spent in the editor. Making missions, my own stories, Arma takes up to 1TB of HDD space as there are SO MANY mods that are awesome to have.
You can get lost in just playing the game and doing stuff in the maps, mods, stories, etc. So many things.
Always great advice !!
Really great video thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed!
also the one mod i love more than any other is Arma commander a mod that lets you setup old battlefield style battles with anymod in a simple way
Running around 3300hrs right now. Formed a private milsim unit almost exactly two years ago and we're just getting started. This game is a literal gold mine and I love every aspect about it. Btw great videos, been enjoying them for years, keep up the good work Viper!
Cheers bro! Couldn't agree more! Its a gold mine with an unending amount of gold!
this content really helped, I just Bought Arma 3 this year
Good idea for a video. I've always had a question with Arma 3, and that is why didn't Bohemia Interactive list a FULL set of their controls in the game menu.
I havent bought the game yet... but your video made me strongly wanting this game it looks wonderful and with endeless possibilities!
sorry for my english im from sweden =)
The possibilities really are endless!! It’s kinda crazy how much you can do in Arma 3, and we’re STILL getting new stuff through mods.
Såg du att det stod swedish special forces, har du ett konto på Steam, jag har och jag har egentligen alla DLC, jag heter kalleskaviar, och det häftiga nu är att när man streamar över nätet genom steam behöver bara den ena ha spelet, så om du har ett konto och din dator kan köra arma , bara adda mig, jag är definitivt en newbie på arma senast jag spelade multiplayer var battlefield tror det var 2005, så men andra ord har du konto dator addar du mig så kör vi, sugen på att ha någon att vinna med...:)
16:35
It took me until the drone campaign mission to learn this. And this was AFTER I manually took out all 3 tanks and the 2 Striders
Good luck on flight school mate and great videos as always :>
I have been watching your channel for a year now and I have learned a lot, I am very happy that you got 35k subs
Thank you for your longtime support, my friend!
This was very helpful!
Glad it helped!
I bought the game two days ago, and my experience with it was as if I'm new to gaming (I started at 6 or 7? I'm 16 now), I kept giggling like a little child whenever I learn something new, just got into learning how to control AI as a squad leader, and having an AI drive to a location you want is more fun than I expected it to be.
Thanks for sharing. I'm installing Arma 3 now. I appreciate the tips :) subscribed
Hell yeah! Welcome! (7 months later) cheers!
You did a good job of finding the most common actual confusions for newer players instead of just saying all the generic stuff
Thanks fam I appreciate it! Tried to capture most of the head-hurters in one place. Some things are more common than others.
Yep, This video would have been very helpful back in the early days. Even then you've given me some ideas for future missions.
I did make one a couple years ago but it needed a face lift :)
That was one of the most informative videos of yours to date man! great content and keep it up! that #1 and the information about mods I'm almost sure is the only thing like it on TH-cam. and wish there was much much more. if I may ask a question which iiii have been wanting an answer to for years now lol is WHERE can someone find mod lists like you showed at the end? to be able to just grab a mod pack like that without thinking period would help out newer people so much! from experience the work shop mods is amazing but for someone new so over your head its almost impossible to determine what you want to what you need and what you think you need. any info would be muchly appreciated thanks!
Thanks for the kind words, my friend! I really appreciate that!
Are you talking about the aircraft at the end? That was footage of multiple mods honestly. The KC135 and C17s are from the USAF Mod Utility, the AH64 was RHSUSAF, the F-117s were from Farm Fox, and the F-16 and F-18s were Firewill's. All available on the workshop, you just gotta type them in :)
@@Viper1Zero no i was asking a question that wasn't shown or is about anything shown in the video. i was wondering if there is something out there that makes a modlist for basically a list of maybe the most common or highest rated or a list of all necessary mods for beginners or for people who don't know what they need exactly or what they want. the workshop on steam has a mod list so damn vast I literally get lost and end up downloading 300gb of mods and just because they look or sound cool and not know whether they are even relevant or useful or interfere with each other I was just thinking there has to be a site or blog out there that has peoples cutom made mod lists for people to either look at and download or if it works that way get a list of mods compiled by someone that you can add to your mod lists and it starts downloading all of them.. sorry I know that was a lot I hope that is understandable bro lol thank
I've never played Arma 3, but I am very interested. Thank you for the upload and tips. Is there a way to download missions?
This is a great video for new players Viper even I don't know how to set up certain points ie warlords in the video and leraned something new and I have 1000 hours in Arma 3 now. defenitely giving this video to friends who might want to join me in the future :)
Thanks man! Please feel free to share everywhere you think it could benefit others! :)
thank you for convincing me to buy this game lets hope i can run this🙏🙏🙏
Its insane a game can be this simple and old yet is the best most realistic army shooter ive ever seen still til 2023.😊
In terms of Sound Mods, I'd suggest trying SigSound too. It sounds very boomy and dramatic. Grenades and explosives sound great.
Thank you for the recommendation! I’m gonna check it out
Once again the best unofficial community manager that Arma has, thank you🤙
Ha, I don't know about THAT title but I do greatly appreciate the kind words, my friend!
Good morning Viper1Zero! I just want to drop you a note to say "thank you" for your prompt and helpful response to my question. I found the Western Sahara game exactly where you said it would be. The Prairie Fire launch method spoiled me, as after hitting play you get taken to opening game menu with the playable options. Anyhow, I am a long way off from playing either of these two CDLCs as still in "boot camp", but nice to get them for later at a great discount on Steam. So thanks again and keep pumping out your great Arma 3 content! :)
BTW Haven't had time to check out all your many Arma 3 videos, but just wondering "Have you created any of the "beginner play-through" type videos for specific DLC or scenarios like for example "Western Sahara"? Sort of a hand holding video for us "noobs" to watch where you take us through starting up the game or scenario, outfitting your team with gear and weapona, etc. and then some early game play. Especially interest in the single player mode now that the SOG AI mod allows this for a growing number of titles that were originally multiplayer only.
So glad you found it! Happy to help :)
I have not done a video specifically on the topic of hand holding people through working the DLCs but might in the future!
No worries! I can only imagine how busy you must be cranking out all these great videos! Cheers! :) @@Viper1Zero
Great video as always! Really impressed with the turn around time from when you asked to putting this out, I feel you really nailed your goal of the video.
Side question: in the last seconds of the vid I see your A-10, like mine only has a pylon of 2 Mavs, not 3. Do you have any clue why the USAF mod doesn’t allow 3 laser AGMS?! I think it allows 3 IR, but only 2 of the laser or radar.
Honestly I have no idea, it could be because operationally we've only ever loaded 2x laser Mavericks on LAU-88 rails. Just a guess.
Great video thank you..
You're most welcome!
I hope that mod management will be easier with reforger/a4 so one can just select a server and the game will do the rest like query the mod files from the workshop
but we'll see - currently I'm working on a fresh new implementation of arma life
Thanks!
THANK YOU! Truly appreciate the generosity!
(SIG sound) is also a very good sound mod if you want more bombastic weapons sounds. AMZ is very new but also very good in my opinion as it supports RHS which is aside from CUP probably the most widely used mods.
I gotta check that out! Thanks for the recommendation!
I owned arma2 for dayz, got arma3 on release, played a bit of the Life mod, always wanted to get into big scale multiplayer combat but have never been able to figure out how 😂
Yes please, I would lode to see how to use this kind of trigger. It will help me with the mission I made.
IIRC Dynasound is made by LAxemann who also made the RHS sound effects, so in a way dynasound "is compatible" with RHS without the need for a compatibility mod like JSRS
Yup! LAxemann has also been hired by BI as a sound engineer and has provided a TON of work on Arma Reforger. Honestly I think Arma 4's sound is going to blow us away. I'm so glad they got him to do the sound.
Bro I love your videos!
Thanks bro!
just got my pc running after a year. so excited to play this game,squad,ready or not, even minecraft with mods lmaooo
great stuff
Thank you!
I am thinking about buying Arma 3 and this video was unbelievable useful. Thanks a lot for the video
same
And good luck up there
3000 hours, granted 2000+ have been in a hummingbird, but I didn't know about switching to top down mode. Thank you Viper
Hey I have a question for you: How do you play Internet mission or MP but with a map where you can use all the Arma 3 resources? And why the maps they gave us always is dumb made, like just soldiers here, a tank there and respawn?
How can I make my own full map and mission with tons of scripting, weapons at disposal, and other things like, all of suddenly turn night for players, complete a mission at the night so they can continue in the day. I think my point is how to create MP missions !!
Me and my squad use Radmin VPN to host a LAN server, even though we obviously play from different locations. It was a godsend, which eliminated any connection issues. I recommend it to everyone.
I spent 150 hours in Arma 3 and still learned a lot from the video, thanks
Happy to help!
Bought this game years ago. Only bothered to play single player. I wanted to try it online but I only had vanilla and I didn't know how to go about playing it online because of the learning curve so I gave up. I love watching arma gameplays tho. Very entertaining to watch
If you ever decide you want to try it, I can easily switch my 24/7 server to vanilla and you can experience a little MP action!
I have over 7000 hrs on Arma and still learning, but in a great way!
Ok lads, so here's my personal tip. It may not sound like much but here goes: Don't settle on playing on just one map (whether vanilla or not).
Now what I mean by settling on just one map, I'll givr you an example: For me it was playing only on Altis, until I realized that I've been playing on that only map (even though I played on the other maps, but I spent too much time on Altis) literally since I started in 2021 and it took me even longer to realize why I felt like I was getting bored (which of course was caused by the aforementioned reason).
TLDR: Play on other maps, because there are lot more than just the vanilla ones.
Sorry for the rather long comment, been wanting to say this for a while now.
Do you have any that you'd recommend?
Also on the other side, don’t get greedy with them 🤣 I can never finish more than 1 sequential mission because I constantly have to switch to a new map/ new setting
@@accalt6519
LYTHIUM (requires Jbad)
Sumava (requires CUP Terrains - Core)
North Takistan (requires CUP Terrains - Core)
RHSPKL
any regards to modding the graphics, or are they good by themselves?
I run on exstreme with reshade i feel like the reshade settings run better than the built in bloom hdr and all that plus it looks sick if you set reshade up right
I remember Arma 2 when Arma 3 wasn't out yet. Then it released and i could install and play but my computer at the time couldn't run it higher than maybe 12 fps lmao. Now all these years later I'm ready to play again.
5:00 I had a server i left up while at school and i'd come back to like 20 people having World War GTA. I set up a bunch of cars and machine guns around an air field. it was dope
there is no was to adjust mouse sensitivity for separate scopes, ie x1,x4, etc? I usually have my global and x4 mouse sensitivities different.
3:20 Literally every public zeus server
For me it started a few days ago. Having a middle class gaming PC now. The first thing that bothers me right now is that I will never be able to have such high end graphic setting that you'll see in this video. Which is a big bummer for me to continue to play.
u got me i am buying it
Holy! I’m overwhelmed just from this video. Idk if I want to be frustrated with this game. I’d need to join a discord and have a vet not get annoyed with the 1200 questions I’ll have.
Its honestly not as steep as it seems. Are there things to learn? Yes, but the rewards for learning them far surpass the effort getting there :)
3:20 - lol!
Ive played for maybe 300-400 hours and i still havnt figured out how to lock on with Javelins learned about the top down fire though today had no idea about that
Ah. Nice and early. Love it.
Legend
Been playing since late 2018 and I've got around 7500 hours.
Even now, I still find new things to learn, you'll never know everything in Arma 3 >_>
Can you make a trigger to activate the garage option in game at like a Motorpool area?
20 tips ?!?
Yay ! One per frame I get 😎
LMFAO
ARMA 4 is being made RIGHT NOW!! WOOT
Bought it on sale cant wait to get into into it. Sht looks fire. Got no pals but ill rp by myself ;-;
Hop on my Discord! People always looking to play
@@Viper1Zero Sure, Ill get familiar with it a little bfor that :)
GRRRR, just when i thought i was out they pulled me back in! Ive got 2,408.1 hours into this game and i never knew some of the things in this video. Thanks for putting this out there and ill be sure to give the wife your TH-cam channel so you can share in the pain.😂
Welcome back to the fold!! Glad to have you and the wife in the community! :D
Thank you for this formidable video on how to begin arma a decent way 💪👍
I know for sure that will help a lot of new and even old Player of arma univers .
Didnt expected so much but in this case you can freely say the more the better .
I hope we can enjoy a lot of content about arma in the future to come ,it sure was a blast in the past for me 😊.
Later guys 👋👍❤️
I sure do hope it helps both new and old players! Thanks for the support!
You helped me for sure and the video turned out amazing and perfect ,like always . Great ingame captures 👍
The best topic clip out there ❤
hi Viper, could u show how you make units in your videos make animations like standing around, holding their weapons in different poses etc
Using 3Den Enhanced, there is an option when double clicking on the troops in editor for "Ambient Animations". I use the "Watch 1 and 2", "Stand" and "Relax 1-4" options quite a bit.
@@Viper1Zero do they come out of it when combat starts? If not how to do so, ty
Great info man! Subscribed! Also, have you done a video on single player mods by any chance? Always feel overwhelmed when trying to determine which mods to get. I only play single player and tried a bunch of different AI mods to attempt to make the AI feel more natural but it is so hard to figure out how to control them and which scenarios to play. I usually end up confused and going to play something else. Any info would be awesome and thanks for the content!!
i was the 2k like wow btw i agree on this
Hello viper! I think about getting a Logitech X56, for better flightcontrols. I know u got one so I’m asking: Is it worth the money and is their somewhere a layout for all the single buttons? Thanks in advance
3:24 you forgot the part where if you hold Left Control AND Left Shift, you can draw straight lines.
Does anyone know of a mod that can allow the virtual garage in-game? We have so many captured assets in Liberation and need to be able to change them up a bit for PID but the Zeus is a bit buggy in Liberation. Something like Firewill's AWS but for vehicles would be great.
i just want to know how to pick a sniper rifle once i get into a multiplayer match. such as king of the hill.
nice
Me (With 2,000hrs in-game) watching this because there is probably something I'm going to learn.
i cant figure out how to toggle scopes didnt find no settings ect im a little lost its my first time playing this i use to play argo back when it was out but didnt really get onto arma3 till now so far im loving it
quick tap right click as opposed to a long tap?
Hello Viper1Zero! New sub here and just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos! Learning lots as just purchased Arma 3 yesterday, so total noob! Wondering if you or any other viewers can help me out. Yesterday I bought the DLC Western Sahara and for some reason it will not launch. It is installed and shows up in my DLC menu in Arma 3. Check the box to play this DLC and press play at the bottom and instead of launching game, I get taken to the Arama 3 opening screen where you find the boot camp menu etc. Have verified the game files in Steam and tried to launch game with and without any of the mods you recommend. Ironically I also bought the DLC Prairie Fire and it launches just fine. Any thoughts as to what is happening and how to fix it? Or should I just get a refund and move on? Many thanks to you (and any other viewer) that has some ideas.
I'm glad you picked up the game! Welcome to one of the best gaming experiences ever! For Western Sahara, you need to look under "Scenarios" to find it. It should be at the top. I was actually just playing it yesterday! Ha. Let me know if you still have any issues :) Western Sahara is actually one LONG scenario that lets time and days pass by instead of being a full campaign. Its pretty awesome.
Just picked it up yesterday. We shall see how it goes 😅
Always reach out on my discord if you have questions!
got a question, i am sure, that you know the videos on YT with the C-RAM air defence systhem, is that a mod? or something else? please help me ! :)) and how do I play this "mod or what ever it is" :))
Thank you for the helpful advice. Have one question. Can anyone tell me name of mod I’d use to get the shell casings to spit out of weapon when shooting please.

How can I always play with my character, weapons and gear that I create in the editor? I mean to the coop missions that the game has. I can't make it work. When I create a session to play with my friends and choose a mission, the weapons and equipment are not what I want. Same thing in singleplayer mode. Sorry, I'm new to the game.
Do you guys recommend purhcasing the DLC's and then move onto downloading mods or? I come from a HLL (Hell Let Loose) background so this sort of "availability" is pretty new to me
Honestly it depends on what you want. Mods are free, and are a good stepping stone to DLCs. Also, with the exception of SOG Prairie Fire, most DLC's don't have the range and depth of new assets like free mods do. Most DLC's offer either new variants of vanilla vehicles/weapons and new maps.
2 thumbs up!
I only spend my time on 3Den editor and creating my own missions
Thank you again for your content great service what explosions mod is that
Glad you enjoyed! The mod is called blastcore compiled by neetch
@@Viper1Zero could you use photon vxf with blastcore by neech
@@27lyndell you can but not really sure what incompatibilities there would be. Some of the lighting effects in blastcore may overpower photon
There are MANY players who ONLY log in for unit operations. Kind of a cool community aspect.
You’re not wrong!!
